Those Destined May Come to Hear the Dao

But Wu Tian only entertained the thought for a moment.

Then he hurriedly shook his head!

"Forget it..."

"I'd better improve my strength first!"

Though he had made considerable progress, compared to his two ancestral witch sisters, he was still far too lacking. He had no desire to court disaster and get violently beaten up by them!

Unlike Wu Tian.

The ancestral witches had no such reservations at all!

They simply madly absorbed the Killing Intent between heaven and earth to temper their bodies, devoured the essence blood of Ferocious Beasts, and while their fleshly bodies were refined, their command over their own Laws also grew stronger.

By Wu Tian's estimation...

Most of the ancestral witches had reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!

Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin, the two most powerful ancestral witches, were likely already on the verge of breaking through into the Grand Golden Immortal realm.

Hongjun had yet to preach the Dao, and there was no concept yet of Saints or Quasi-Sages...

After Great Luo Golden Immortal came Grand Golden Immortal!

The ancestral witches' bloodlines inherently contained cultivation techniques, and each was born with mastery over a Law. Before reaching the Primal Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, there were simply no obstacles for them.

That was also why, when Wu Tian had previously mentioned Hongjun preaching the Dao.

The ancestral witches had shown little interest!

"The Witch Clan truly is favored by heaven..."

"Just their innate mastery over the Power of a Law is probably enough to make everyone else in the Primordial World green with envy!"

After refining the Essence Blood of the Primordial Dragon and engraving its Power of Laws upon his soul, even Wu Tian could not help but feel envious inwardly.

Wu Tian still had to continuously inscribe Laws!

At this rate, who knew how many heavenly treasures and precious items containing the Power of Laws he would have to expend? But the ancestral witches were different.

They only needed to proceed step by step.

Once their fleshly bodies grew strong, mastering Laws would be as easy as eating and drinking...

"Alas..."

"I suppose everything has its gains and losses!"

Wu Tian thought to himself.

While Wu Tian cultivated.

Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin had gathered together. Both ancestral witches wore exceedingly grave expressions, their brows tightly furrowed, looking deeply troubled!

After a long while.

Dijiang finally spoke:

"Second Brother, those things Wu Tian said..."

"What do you think?"

Zhu Jiuyin naturally understood that Dijiang was not referring to altering the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation, but to what Wu Tian had said:

Would there come a day when the Primordial World could no longer tolerate the Witch Clan?

This was not alarmist talk.

Though the ancestral witches were steeped in Killing Intent and ignorant of Heaven's reckoning, as Innate Gods—and the most powerful Space Ancestral Witch and Time Ancestral Witch—they were naturally no fools!

They had not thought much about it before, but after Wu Tian said this, their minds were instantly stirred...

They could not help but ponder it deeply.

After all, Wu Tian had already proven that when it came to judging the greater tide of events, his vision was extraordinarily far-reaching and accurate—far better than that of the ancestral witches!

When the three clans had been at the height of their glory.

Wu Tian had declared outright that all three clans would lose, and that Hongjun would be the final victor. Though the ancestral witches had not scoffed at him then, they had not truly believed him either...

How could that be?

The three clans were so powerful.

They had nearly swept across the entire Primordial World!

At the very least, one of them should have emerged victorious. How could they all meet such a bleak end?

But when the ending came.

The ancestral witches could only watch in utter astonishment as the three clans truly met such a bleak end. To leave behind a measure of Fortune for their clansmen, the leaders of all three clans even sacrificed themselves and made vows to protect the Primordial World!

After letting out a soft sigh.

Zhu Jiuyin said blandly:

"I don't wish to believe it either... Our Witch Clan is the Orthodox Pangu Lineage, and we absorb the Killing Intent of heaven and earth to stabilize the Primordial World. How could such a day come?"

"But..."

"Though Wu Tian may be indolent, among us Ancestral Witches, he is the wisest and understands the heavenly workings best. Perhaps it has something to do with him being the last to be born and tainted by the least Killing Intent!"

"He has never spoken without cause!"

After saying this, Zhu Jiuyin pondered briefly once more.

Then he continued, "But there is no need to worry..."

"Wu Tian has always had his own ideas. Since he has reminded us to alter the Twelve Heavenly Gods Killing Formation, then we should follow his wishes and do it properly!"

"In any case, there is nothing to lose... But if it truly turns out as he says, our Witch Clan will gain another powerful trump card..."

Usually taciturn, Zhu Jiuyin became rather talkative when it was only he and Dijiang.

He then raised his head, a sharp gleam flickering in his eyes.

His expression turned incomparably solemn as well.

"Besides that..."

"Once our cultivation advances further, you and I can join forces to wield the Law of Space and the Law of Time, probing toward the end of time. Then we will naturally learn of the changes to come!"

Dijiang's brow furrowed even more deeply.

If they used the method Zhu Jiuyin had described to peer into the River of Time, the two of them might not necessarily see anything... but they would definitely suffer an immense backlash!

Yet Dijiang did not object.

After a moment of silence, he instead answered with utmost gravity, "Alright!"

Zhu Jiuyin nodded slightly as well.

Seeing Dijiang's somewhat heavy expression, Zhu Jiuyin smiled again. His tone instantly changed, carrying a hint of lightness.

"Big Brother, there is no need for us to worry so much!"

"No matter what, we are Father God Pangu's blood descendants. So long as heaven and earth exist, there will forever be a share of Fortune for us... In the Primordial Wilderness, strength is supreme. As long as we ourselves are powerful enough, what is there to fear?"

Zhu Jiuyin's gaze shifted.

"Besides..."

"We still have Wu Tian!"

"He differs from us Ancestral Witches, yet directly bears the power of twelve laws within himself, and he has even given us such a warning... Perhaps he is precisely the way out Father God has arranged for our Witch Clan?"

Dijiang blinked.

Then he suddenly burst into hearty laughter!

"Haha..."

"That's right, Father God will certainly protect us!"

After this exchange between the two Ancestral Witches, the worries in their hearts quickly faded. They decisively set the matter aside and began considering the Twelve Heavenly Gods Killing Formation instead.

That was simply the Witch Clan's nature.

Quick to come.

And quick to go!

Before the two could reach any conclusion, a vast voice suddenly resounded throughout heaven and earth.

Empowered by the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun's calm words reached the ears of every cultivator in the Primordial Wilderness.

"I am Hongjun, and today I have become a saint!"

"Three thousand years from now, I will expound the Dao at Zixiao Palace. All those fated may come!"

"..."

Upon hearing this voice, Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin abruptly rose to their feet and looked beyond the nine heavens, outside the Primordial Wilderness. A faint sensation had already arisen within their hearts—it seemed to be the location of Zixiao Palace!

Dijiang said solemnly, "Hongjun truly intends to expound the Dao!"

"That brat Wu Tian got it right again..."

The two exchanged a glance.

Remembering their previous conversation, their eyes both held grave expressions, yet neither brought it up again.

A moment later, Zhu Jiuyin said, "Let's go!"

"Gather the Ancestral Witches and go find Wu Tian..."

But in truth, there was no need for the two of them to relay the message. The other Ancestral Witches had also heard Hongjun's voice.

Seeing Wu Tian's words proven true once again, the Ancestral Witches were utterly shocked!

They immediately hurried back toward Pangu Hall...
