They had truly been mistaken.
The Ancestral Witches had no such thoughts at all!
In the minds of the Ancestral Witches, the Primordial World had been opened by Father God Pangu and belonged to the Witch Clan... What was there for them to seize?
Besides, the Ancestral Witches all hated trouble.
The Ancestral Witches had even worried before:
"Will we have to devote ourselves to worrying about the operation of the Primordial World's laws in the future? Wouldn't that be troublesome and boring?"
Naturally, that was not the case!
The gods of laws the Ancestral Witches had now become were completely different from the incense gods of later times.
They did not need to answer the needs of all living beings...
Nor did they need incense and the power of wishes!
They were part of heaven and earth itself, needing only to operate according to their own rules. Nor was there any need for the Ancestral Witches to interfere with personal emotions.
Take the cycle of the four seasons, for example. If the Ancestral Witches intervened, they would only incur additional karma and karmic burden...
Return the rules to heaven and earth itself!
Only then were the Ancestral Witches at ease. With no more concerns, they directly agreed to Wu Tian's suggestion...
But Dao Ancestor Hongjun was different.
He wished to merge himself with the Dao. Naturally, the more Heavenly Dao authority he controlled, the deeper his Dao merger would be, allowing him to cultivate toward a higher realm!
As this scene unfolded.
An incomparably weighty Fortune arose from nothingness and poured into the Witch Clan's River of Fortune, causing it to surge in an instant...
Yet it did not tremble in the slightest.
Above it, the phantoms of Pangu Hall and the Primordial Measuring Sky Ruler rose and fell. The phantoms of the True Forms of the twelve Ancestral Witches also appeared around them, firmly suppressing the Fortune!
Only then.
The aura of the Great Dao quietly faded away...
It was as if it had never appeared, yet everyone knew that what had just happened was no illusion. That vast and majestic aura remained in their hearts.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun also let out a soft breath!
Looking toward where the Great Dao had vanished, envy appeared in his eyes as he sighed inwardly:
"How generously does the Great Dao treat Pangu!"
Even Pangu's blood descendants.
Could receive the Great Dao's blessings!
At that moment, the power of the Heavenly Dao also became lively, surging toward the Twelve Heavenly Gods Killing Formation near Mount Buzhou...
Although the Ancestral Witches had not shown it much respect.
This time, they had given the Heavenly Dao only the treatment of an "observer" when establishing themselves. But their actions had made heaven and earth more complete. Moreover, even the Great Dao had bestowed merit—could the Heavenly Dao truly show no reaction at all?
Would that not be turning the natural order upside down?
Refusing to give the Great Dao face?
Therefore.
Another phenomenon instantly appeared. Within the heavy auspicious clouds above the Ninth Heaven, countless strands of Golden Light of Merit swirled...
As the first saint.
Although Dao Ancestor Hongjun could not prevent the Heavenly Dao from bestowing merit, he could interfere. But after his thoughts stirred slightly, he imperceptibly shook his head!
Out of sight, out of mind.
He simply vanished quietly...
Returning to Zixiao Palace!
Boom!
A massive pillar of Golden Light of Merit descended from the heavens toward the Witch Clan. Wu Tian and the Ancestral Witches each received a large share, while Pangu Hall and the Primordial Measuring Sky Ruler also received quite a bit!
Upon the ordinary members of the Witch Clan.
Specks of golden light also descended!
Not only that.
Even Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun, and Kunpeng, whom Wu Tian had invited to witness the ceremony, each received a share!
Hongyun sighed:
"What a pity..."
"It isn't Great Dao merit!"
Zhen Yuanzi lightly smacked him and could not help laughing as he scolded:
"You should be grateful to have Heavenly Dao merit!"
"And you still want Great Dao merit? You sure know how to dream! Even for this... we should thank Brother Wu Tian for inviting us and letting us share in the benefits!"
Hongyun hurriedly laughed.
"I was only sighing!"
At the same time, Hongyun could not help looking toward Kunpeng beside him. Ever since learning that Kunpeng had given the Northern Profound Origin Control Water Flag to Wu Tian, his impression of Kunpeng had changed greatly!
He had not expected Kunpeng to be so generous.
Then he thought of the enormous Karma he still owed, without knowing how he could repay it. Now he had received a share of Heavenly Dao merit as well...
A bitter smile appeared on Hongyun's face!
After a while.
The vast amount of Heavenly Dao merit finally finished descending, and the phenomena between heaven and earth slowly dissipated. Seeing this, the Ancestral Witches directly withdrew the Twelve Heavenly Gods Killing Formation!
As the baleful qi that reached through heaven and earth dissipated.
The Witch Clan's River of Fortune also vanished...
Heaven and earth returned to tranquility once more!
But the Witch Clan became lively. While Wu Tian was still gathering his own share of Heavenly Dao merit and pondering how to use it.
Dijiang had already flashed to his side!
Smack!
With an excited expression, Dijiang fiercely slapped Wu Tian on the shoulder and laughed heartily.
"Wu Tian, you really are something!"
"We truly received Father God's blessing, and even the Great Dao appeared... Hahaha! From now on, whatever you say, I'll listen!"
At this moment, the other Ancestral Witches also arrived.
They all excitedly gathered around Wu Tian and shouted. Wu Tian only felt as if countless bolts of thunder were roaring beside his ears, leaving him deafened!
Once the Ancestral Witches' excitement subsided.
Dijiang then said:
"There is another piece of good news!"
"With the Witch Clan's Fortune flourishing this time, under the blessing of this Fortune, I have already found an opportunity to break through to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm... It likely will not be long before I make my breakthrough!"
Dijiang was rather surprised.
He had thought that splitting off part of his divine soul and Power of Laws would affect him, yet it had not affected him at all. Instead, it had strengthened his control over the Law of Space...
Zhu Jiuyin also nodded with a smile.
"Me too."
Wu Tian was immediately delighted.
This was naturally wonderful news!
The stronger the Ancestral Witches became, the more confidence Wu Tian would have...
He immediately looked toward the other Ancestral Witches.
Especially Zhurong, who had been shouting the loudest. Yet he saw Zhurong scratch his head somewhat sheepishly before speaking in a low voice:
"I'm still a little short..."
"Just a tiny bit short!"
Everyone immediately burst into laughter.
Wu Tian did not notice that Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin exchanged looks, as though they had made some sort of decision...
Afterward, everyone returned to the tribe.
Today was the day they had established their clan.
Naturally, they had to celebrate extravagantly!
The Witch Clan's warriors had already lit bonfires, and countless Ferocious Beast Blood Foods had been prepared...
Wu Tian welcomed Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun.
Kunpeng still had the same temperament as before. He smiled and congratulated Wu Tian, then politely declined the banquet invitation and quietly departed.
At Fuxi and Nüwa's dojo.
Di Jun and Taiyi were also present. After Di Jun's grand plans had moved Fuxi and Nüwa, the four prepared to join forces to establish the Demon Clan and open the Demon Dao!
They were discussing the specific details.
When they were suddenly startled by the commotion of the Witch Clan establishing itself. The four flew out of the dojo together and watched from high in the sky...
Watching the Witch Clan establish itself and receive so many benefits, as well as that vast amount of merit, Di Jun felt an indescribable sensation arise in his heart.
He always felt as if they had been beaten to the punch!
Once the various phenomena ended.
All four wore thoughtful expressions as they silently returned to the dojo. Just after sitting down, Di Jun spoke directly with a solemn expression:
"No!"
"We need to hurry as well. We must establish the Demon Clan before the third lecture..."
The other three all nodded in agreement.
Then Taiyi suddenly asked:
"Brother..."
"If we announce it to the Great Dao when establishing our clan, just like the Witch Clan did, do you think we could also receive Dao Favor and be granted Great Dao merit?"
Fuxi's mouth immediately twitched slightly.
Yet he held himself back from saying anything, merely turning to glance at his younger sister Nüwa...
Di Jun was speechless.
Then he sighed and said irritably:
"You think you're an Ancestral Witch? Can you summon Pangu True Form?"
There was no way to repay this...
Let me wish everyone an early Happy New Year!
May you all have peace and joy, with wealth rolling in...
