Pangu Hall Material Crowdfunding Conference! Twelve Ancestral Witches: Thirteenth Brother, Did Father God Really Say That?

After a short while, inside Pangu Hall, the atmosphere was solemn.

Dijiang sat at the head seat, his gaze sweeping over the other ten Ancestral Witches who had arrived one after another.

Zhujiuyin maintained his usual eternally profound demeanor, standing quietly to the side.

Xuanzheng stood beside Dijiang, feigning an expression of "bearing a heavy responsibility, filled with trepidation." In his heart, however, he had already rehearsed the words he was about to speak, and the possible reactions of his Elder Brothers, no less than a hundred times using the Myriad Heavens Script Mirror, ensuring that every expression and every word was perfectly placed.

"Brothers," Dijiang's deep voice broke the silence in the hall, carrying an unprecedented gravity.

"I have summoned you all today because there is a matter of immense importance to discuss! This matter concerns the very foundation of our Witch Clan and our future destiny! Our thirteenth brother, Xuanzheng, received a warning dream from Father God, stating that Pangu Hall, our dwelling place, has many hidden dangers and requires immediate repair and reinforcement. Otherwise... the consequences would be unimaginable!"

Dijiang deliberately emphasized the phrases "Father God's dream" and "consequences would be unimaginable," his gaze like lightning as he observed the expressions of the Ancestral Witches.

"What?! Father God's dream?!"

Zhurong, whose temper was the most explosive, his fiery red hair seeming to burn even brighter, was the first to leap from his stone seat, his bell-like eyes filled with shock and urgency.

"Did the elder Father God say that? Then what are we waiting for! Whatever materials are needed, thirteenth brother, just name them! Even if my Zhurong tribe has to empty its coffers, we must handle this matter for Father God perfectly!" His palm, like a winnowing fan, slapped his chest with a "bang bang" sound.

"That's right! Elder Brother! Zhurong is right!" Gonggong, the Ancestral Witch of Water, his face usually stern and unyielding, was also filled with excitement at this moment. He slapped his thigh and said in a deep, muffled voice.

"Father God's matters are paramount! Repairing Pangu Hall, count me, Gonggong, in! If any water essence, or the origins of rivers, lakes, and seas are needed, as long as they exist in the Primordial World, I, Gonggong, will get them for you, even if I have to overturn the dragon palaces of those old mudfish, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas!"

The other Ancestral Witches, such as Jumang, Rushou, Qiangliang, Xizi, and others, also responded one after another upon hearing this. The hall was filled with a surge of enthusiasm, as if they could rush out of Pangu Hall and scour the entire Primordial World at Xuanzheng's command.

Seeing that the time was right, Xuanzheng "appropriately" raised his head, his face displaying a complex expression of "gratitude" and "bearing great responsibility." His voice, slightly hoarse, began: "Thank you all, Elder Brothers, for your trust! Father God did indeed bestow upon me the secret blueprint for repairing and reinforcing Pangu Hall, but... the heavenly treasures and earthly materials required are quite numerous."

With that, he took a deep breath and began to slowly read out a list.

This list had naturally been meticulously "beautified" and "rationally allocated" by the Myriad Heavens Script Mirror.

Among them, the most crucial "Buzhou Mountain Dragon Vein Ancestral Source" was cleverly omitted. He merely stated, "This is the core of the array's eye. Father God has other arrangements, and opportunities will descend from the heavens at that time. There is no need for us to worry about it."

As for the other materials, although they were still astronomical and astonishing, he divided them in an orderly fashion.

"...Elder Brother Rushou, your tribe is spread across the Western lands and is rich in various divine metal veins. For the 'Nine Heavens Geng Gold Mother,' 'Taibai Refined Gold,' 'Star Secret Silver,' and other materials needed for the foundation and framework of Pangu Hall, we will primarily rely on you, Elder Brother."

"Elder Brother Jumang, the Eastern lands are most abundant in Yi Wood Qi and various Innate Spiritual Roots and ten-thousand-year-old divine trees, such as 'Jianmu Branch,' 'Fusang Sprout,' and 'Moon Laurel Essence,' which are used to harmonize the vitality within the hall. This will require your diligent effort, Elder Brother."

"Elder Brother Gonggong, in addition to what you mentioned earlier, we also need 'Northern Darkness True Water,' 'Tianyi Heavy Water,' 'Three Lights Divine Water'... and, it would be best if we could 'borrow' some from fellow Daoist San Xiao." Xuanzheng added "honestly," causing Gonggong's eyes to light up.

"Elder Sister Houtu," Xuanzheng looked at the only female Ancestral Witch, his tone softening slightly, "for the stability of the hall's foundation and the growth of all things, we need 'Nine Heavens Breathing Soil,' 'Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Qi,' and 'Earth Dragon Fetus Stone'... These will require your hard work, Elder Sister."

Xuanzheng listed them one by one, and the Ancestral Witches would occasionally nod or frown.

When Xuanzheng finished the long list, even though the Ancestral Witches had considerable wealth, they couldn't help but show a hint of difficulty.

After all, each item on the list was a top-tier treasure in the Primordial World on its own. Now, to collect hundreds or thousands of units of them, the pressure was immense.

Xuanzheng immediately observed their expressions and quickly added, "Elder Brothers, there is no need to worry! Father God said that repairing Pangu Hall is not a task that can be accomplished in a single day. The required materials can be collected in batches. Moreover, Father God has also bestowed a profound secret method, which can use a small amount of core divine materials as a catalyst to set up a simple formation, thereby drawing upon the power of heaven and earth to initially improve the condition of Pangu Hall and accelerate its self-repair and energy convergence! Once the subsequent materials arrive, we can then perfect and upgrade it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the solemn expressions on the Ancestral Witches' faces eased slightly.

Installments, and seeing results first – this was good!

Just as everyone thought the matter was settled, Tianwu, the Ancestral Witch of Wind, who had been silent all along, with gusts of wind swirling around him, suddenly spoke. His slightly hoarse voice echoed in the hall, carrying a hint of imperceptible scrutiny: "Thirteenth brother, I have one thing I do not understand. Father God's dream is of great importance, why... did he only seek you out? Not us, your elder brothers?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the previously lively atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze, becoming somewhat subtle.

The gazes of the other Ancestral Witches involuntarily refocused on Xuanzheng, filled with inquiry.

Indeed, this question, they had overlooked it in their initial shock from the overwhelming information of "Father God's dream."

Xuanzheng secretly thought, "Here it comes!" but his expression remained unruffled. Instead, he displayed an even more "innocent" look, even tinged with a bit of "embarrassment."

He scratched his head, his voice carrying the unique straightforwardness and a hint of grievance of a young man:

"This... little brother doesn't know either. Perhaps, perhaps it's because I just woke up from Father God's heart, and my connection with the elder Father God's remnant consciousness is still the closest? Father God can sense me easily?"

He paused, as if recalling the dream, and then continued uncertainly, "Moreover... Father God also seemed to say... said my mind... well, it's relatively 'simple,' single-minded, and I wouldn't think as much or as complicatedly as my brothers. This kind of arduous and glorious task that only requires hard work and not too much scheming, is best entrusted to me..."

"Pfft--"

Someone couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.

Immediately after, including Dijiang, all the Ancestral Witches couldn't help but stifle their laughter.

Zhurong even slapped his thigh and burst into laughter: "Simple? Single-minded? Hahaha! Father God's evaluation is spot on! Indeed, this kid looks honest and simple, unlike us, each one of us is cunning!"

The other Ancestral Witches nodded in agreement, feeling that this explanation was very "Xuanzheng" and also in line with their perception of Father God's unconventional and essence-focused way of doing things.

Tianwu heard this and also nodded slightly, saying no more.

Xuanzheng chuckled inwardly, thinking, "Simple? If I were simple, I'd have you guys' underwear swindled off you by now!"

Thus, this unprecedented "Pangu Hall Material Crowdfunding Conference" concluded successfully in an atmosphere that was "both solemn and slightly humorous."

The twelve Ancestral Witches, including Tianwu who had asked the question earlier, all patted their chests and promised to immediately return to their respective tribes, mobilize all their strength, and collect the required heavenly treasures and earthly materials according to the list provided by Xuanzheng.

Xuanzheng outwardly expressed his profound gratitude, bowing repeatedly, but inwardly, he was overjoyed.

He had successfully combined the "Golden Finger Upgrade Project" with the "Pangu Hall Bug Fix" and packaged it as a "Witch Clan Collective Honor Project."

The first batch of basic materials for initiating the "Pangu World-Suppression Mysterious Yellow Great Array (Prototype)" finally had a source!

Next, all that remained was to await the good news from his Elder Brothers, and perhaps... to ponder further what other "small bugs" existed inside and outside Pangu Hall that he could practice on to gain merit and proficiency.
