Wu Tian smiled wryly.
Even Dijiang, who had always carried himself as the eldest brother, had this attitude. What else could he say?
Besides...
Earlier, at Zixiao Palace.
The Ancestral Witches had displayed such an overbearing attitude before everyone. Surely no one would be blind enough to provoke the three of them!
"Fine..."
"If we don't go, then we don't go!"
Wu Tian said with a smile.
The Ancestral Witches immediately looked relieved. Dijiang regained his eldest-brotherly bearing and nodded with a light chuckle.
"Don't worry!"
"Even if we do not go to Zixiao Palace to hear the Dao, that does not mean we will waste away!"
"We can still cultivate, improve, continue strengthening our control over our own laws, and constantly temper our bodies..."
Dijiang appeared extremely confident.
Zhu Jiuyin, who had always spoken very little, also chuckled at this moment.
"And..."
"While the great cultivators of the Primordial Wilderness are all off listening to the Dao, we can take the children and develop in peace. There is also the matter of the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation you mentioned before. We must settle that as soon as possible!"
Following Wu Tian's performance.
The Ancestral Witches placed even greater importance on the various matters Wu Tian proposed. Binding Mount Buzhou to the Twelve Divine Heavens Great Sorcery Formation had already become their highest priority!
At this point.
Another matter surfaced in Wu Tian's mind. It could be handled together with this matter—the founding of the Witch Clan!
He immediately spoke.
After Wu Tian finished, the Ancestral Witches were somewhat confused. Dijiang even frowned and asked.
"Founding a clan?"
"Aren't we already the Witch Clan... Do we still need to establish the Witch Clan?"
Wu Tian smiled and said.
"That is not the case!"
"The Witch Clan is what we call ourselves. Perhaps some people acknowledge it as well, but that does not necessarily mean it has been acknowledged by the entire Primordial World. Without a proper name, one cannot speak with proper justification!"
"That is precisely it..."
A thought stirred in his mind.
Wu Tian simply changed his approach and directly brought out Great God Pangu, saying with a smile.
"Besides..."
"We have so many children, and the Witch Clan is growing and developing. Should we not announce it to Father God Pangu, so that Father God Pangu's lingering will may be pleased?"
As soon as he said this.
It was exactly as Wu Tian had expected!
The Ancestral Witches no longer had the slightest doubt. Each of them nodded in agreement, while Dijiang laughed.
"Indeed, indeed!"
"If we establish the Witch Clan, we naturally must announce it to Father God..."
In the original course of events.
Although the Witch Clan had grown powerful and everyone in the Primordial Wilderness referred to them as the Witch Clan, it was only after Di Jun and the others established the Demon Clan that the Ancestral Witches responded in kind and formally established the Witch Clan!
Wu Tian naturally had to act first.
Founding a clan would bring an enormous amount of merit. Great God Pangu's lingering will might even be stirred and bestow blessings...
There was another point.
If they put some thought into the oath made when founding the clan, they could even try to take advantage of the Great Dao!
For example, changing "Heavenly Dao above" to "Great Dao above"...
For Great God Pangu's sake.
The Great Dao might truly appear. If it favored them and bestowed Great Dao merit, the Ancestral Witches would make an enormous profit!
In that case.
Their other plans could also proceed naturally, such as making Xuan Ming the Winter God and Zhu Rong the Fire God...
Innate Gods like the Ancestral Witches were unlike the gods of later generations who fed on incense and the power of faith. They were truly born of heaven and earth!
Wu Tian did not explain this point in detail.
He planned to discuss it thoroughly with them after the second sermon and refine the plan.
Then Wu Tian said with a smile.
"Then it is settled..."
"Brothers, you can make preparations in advance. After the second sermon, when Xuan Ming, Sister Houtu, and I return from Zixiao Palace, we will announce it to Father God Pangu and establish the Witch Clan!"
Dijiang and the others nodded in agreement.
They then bid Wu Tian farewell. Even Xuan Ming and Houtu were returning to their tribes, as they needed to check on the Witch Clan's children...
Before leaving.
Houtu said with a smile.
"Once the two of us have dealt with the matters in our tribes, we will come here to meet up with you. When the time is right, we will set out directly from here!"
After the Ancestral Witches departed.
Wu Tian closed the innate formation!
He began cultivating within the formation, immersing his thoughts in the Innate Calabash Vine and continuously comprehending the laws of yin and yang and the Five Elements contained within it...
The power of the laws on the Innate Calabash Vine seemed to overlap with the Ancestral Witch laws borne by Wu Tian, but they were not actually the same.
The laws of the Primordial Wilderness were rules and characteristics.
They were not merely a certain kind of existence!
Take the Fire Element law, for example.
It was the rule of burning and release, rather than a ball of flame or a particular kind of fire...
For that reason.
The Ancestral Witches' law power was actually more extreme and carried immensely strong personal characteristics. Zhu Rong's fire was the most violent and ferocious, while the laws within the Innate Calabash Vine were the purest!
After continuously comprehending them.
Wu Tian was somewhat surprised to find that he had indeed absorbed much nourishment from them, making the law imprints upon his soul even deeper...
But that was not the most important change.
Around the faint human figures condensed from the twelve laws, additional patterns suddenly appeared. The Innate Calabash Vine formed a circle around them, like a garland!
The seven calabashes also appeared clearly.
Partway through his cultivation, Xuan Ming and Ancestral Witch Houtu finished handling their tribal affairs and came here together, cultivating alongside Wu Tian...
No one knew how much time passed.
Houtu woke Wu Tian. When he slowly opened his eyes, he saw her smiling lightly as she spoke.
"The time is about right..."
"We should set out as well!"
The first time, they had departed three thousand years early.
This time, they knew the way, so naturally they did not need that much time. Yet there was still a long journey through Chaos, and it would take time...
Wu Tian slowly nodded.
He then calmed his mana. This session of cultivation had brought almost negligible growth to his physical body, but his primordial spirit had grown tremendously stronger.
It had finally balanced with his physical body.
He had also reached the middle stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal!
"Ah..."
"I'm still a little short!"
Wu Tian could not help muttering.
When she heard him say that.
Houtu immediately chuckled.
"You were already the last among us Ancestral Witches to be born. You only gained control over law power through Ancestral Witch Essence Blood. Achieving what you have in such a short time is already very good..."
"And you are still not satisfied?"
It was not that Wu Tian was dissatisfied.
He simply felt that, as the sermons at Zixiao Palace continued, the Witch-Demon Tribulation was drawing ever closer. Naturally, he wanted to cultivate faster...
Not to mention anyone else.
Taiqing of the Three Pure Ones might already be at the peak of Great Luo Golden Immortal, merely waiting for Hongjun's sermon to comprehend his own Great Dao and become a Quasi-Sage!
Wu Tian naturally refused to lag behind.
Now that he knew the broader course of Heavenly Dao, how could he still allow the Three Pure Ones to suppress him like this?
However, he did not argue.
He merely smiled, then said to the two Ancestral Witches.
"Let's go!"
"We cannot delay the sermon..."
Xuan Ming and Houtu both nodded slightly.
At the same time, Xuan Ming took out the Primordial Measuring Sky Ruler and returned it to Wu Tian. Then she joined forces with Houtu and swept Wu Tian along.
They flew beyond the Primordial Wilderness.
Toward Zixiao Palace within Chaos...
