Houtu's state of mind at this moment was extremely complicated.

The moment she chose to reincarnate, she was already prepared to die.

Unexpectedly, under the influence of the power of heaven and earth, she still had the opportunity to reunite her true spirit.

But she was not pleased by this.

Having lost her bloodline and physical body, she was no longer the Houtu she once was.

Even the power over reincarnation in the underworld was of no concern to Houtu.

What she cared about most was the Witch Race, but she didn't know how to face Witch Race or her former brothers.

Houtu was actually always running away, hating herself, and punishing herself.

She was worthy of heaven and earth and all living beings, but she failed her brother and the Witch Race who cherished her.

By taking over the Book of Life and Death and Death and the Judge's Brush, Cihang also took over the authority of reincarnation in the underworld.

Since Houtu trusted him so much, he naturally wouldn't betray that trust.

"I entrust this Netherworld Underworld to you, fellow Daoist."

If a sage were to intervene in the underworld, Houtu would naturally appear to assist.

As for the rest, I'll leave it all to you, fellow Daoist!"

With that, Houtu turned to leave.

"Fellow Daoist, do you intend to continue down this path of self-destruction?"

Even if you have lost your physical body and bloodline, you are still a descendant of Pangu.

If you truly care so much about bloodlines, why not reunite your physical body and bloodline?

Seeing Houtu's self-loathing, Cihang couldn't bear it and offered words of comfort.

Houtu should not be like this.

"Having lost her physical body and bloodline, how can Houtu be worthy of being called a descendant of the Father God?"

As for re-establishing my bloodline, that's impossible; my bloodline and physical body have already been transformed into reincarnation.

"The Primordial World is now devoid of Ancestral Witch Houtu!"

The air of desolation emanating from Houtu was no longer concealed.

"Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken."

Your transformation into a being of reincarnation is to complete the unfinished work of Pangu.

Both the Witch Race and Pangu will be proud of you.

This entire world was created by Pangu. Even if you don't have Pangu Bloodline, you are still a descendant of Pangu!

Although Houtu possessed the cultivation of a quasi-saint, she lacked the corresponding state of mind.

If it weren't for the protection of immeasurable merit, one simply wouldn't be able to support such terrifying cultivation strength.

"All things in heaven and earth are manifestations of the Father God. Yes, I should not be fixated solely on the power of bloodline."

As a descendant of Pangu, I, Houtu, should protect this world on behalf of my Father God, and continuously improve the laws and order of heaven and earth.

Only in this way can we live up to the name of being descendants of Pangu!

Cihang's words were like a sudden awakening, instantly bringing Houtu back to her senses.

At this moment, all her despair vanished, and the former Ancestral Witch Houtu returned.

"This is the Houtu I know; she won't be defeated by anything."

As long as the True Spirit Consciousness remain, anything is possible.

Moreover, fellow Daoist, you are ahead of everyone else, and are only one step away from attaining Dao!

Seeing Houtu's transformation, Cihang smiled again.

"Proving the Way? No, that's not my ambition!"

Houtu quickly refused.

Although it wasn't a feud from the beginning of time, the Witch Race had an instinctive resistance to the Dao of Heaven.

Compared to the Sanqing, the Ancestral Witch are closer to Pangu.

"I am not referring to Heavenly Dao Sage, but rather Earth Dao Venerable Seat!"

Cihang once again explained to Houtu the differences between the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

Compared to Zhenyuanzi, Houtu is closer to the underground world.

It remains to be seen which of the two will attain enlightenment first.

After the initial shock, Houtu reaffirmed her resolve.

For herself and for the sake of the Witch Race, she must strive to prove herself worthy of the Earth Dao Venerable Seat.

She cannot reunite her physical body now, so what will happen after she attains enlightenment?

Thinking of this, Houtu was unwilling to delay any longer.

After entrusting everything in the Netherworld Underworld to Cihang, he immediately returned to the depths of reincarnation and began his seclusion.

The depths of reincarnation are extremely dangerous, but for Houtu, they are a sacred place for cultivation, containing the most concentrated laws of life and death reincarnation.

After sending Houtu, Cihang's consciousness returned, leaving Fengdu to refine the Book of Life and Death in the underworld.

Only by mastering the Book of Life and Death can one fully control the cycle of reincarnation in the underworld.

It has to be said that Houtu has once again given him a great gift.

Of course, Houtu also benefited, as she gained the Opportunity for Enlightenment.

Cihang's proactive assistance to Houtu and Zhenyuanzi was also a way of helping herself.

As his cultivation level deepened, the path to enlightenment became increasingly difficult.

Breaking through to the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal in the Primordial World is extremely difficult.

He alone could not break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

He needs help from others.

He is helping Houtu and Zhenyuanzi now, but he will need their help in the future.

Having agreed to Houtu's request, Cihang immediately left Mount Luojia and headed towards the Pangu Hall on Buzhou Mountain.

At this time, the Twelve Ancestor Witches gathered in the Pangu Hall.

Of course, they weren't waiting for Cihang.

Although Houtu's transformation into reincarnation brought benefits to the Primordial World, it also had a significant impact on the Witch Race.

The loss of Houtu severely weakened the Witch Race.

The Ancestral Witch felt both heartache and resentment at Houtu's fate.

Only after hearing Dao Cihang's explanation did Di Jiang and the other Ancestral Witch feel relieved and Houtu.

Houtu did not abandon the Witch Race, but was fulfilling the mission of the Father God.

However, the Witch Race soon faced an extremely serious problem.

After returning to the Pangu Hall, Di Jiang planned to use the essence of Houtu to enhance the bloodline of a Great Witch.

Among the Great Witch of the Houtu lineage, Hou Yi undoubtedly possesses the most profound bloodline and has already broken through to the quasi -Saint Realm.

He is the most suitable Great Witch to receive the essence blood of Houtu.

Surprisingly, Hou Yi refused this rare opportunity.

After experiencing Love Tribulation, Hou Yi inevitably fell into a state of despondency, often gazing at the moon in deep thought.

He was clearly incapable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility.

In the end, they abandoned Hou Yi and settled for Chiyou instead.

However, Chiyou's bloodline power was ultimately somewhat lacking.

Although Houtu's essence blood was present, it was always just a little bit lacking, preventing it from truly breaking into the Ancestral Witch Bloodline.

The twelve Witch Race surrounded the blood pool, their expressions filled with anxiety.

In order to help Chiyou break through, they were even willing to expend their own essence and cultivation.

But all of this was useless; Chiyou was unable to break through and remained at the level of Ancestral Witch.

Cihang arrived at the Pangu Hall at this time.

Upon their arrival, they were warmly welcomed by the Twelve Ancestor Witches.

"Fellow Daoist Cihang!"

Do they still remember that Jiu Feng was able to break through because of Cihang's help?

What happened?

Cihang was quite surprised by the Ancestral Witch's enthusiasm.

"Fellow Daoist, you have come at just the right time. We have a favor to ask of you."

We beg you, fellow Daoist, to help us!

Di Jiang stepped forward and bowed deeply to Cihang.

"Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. What is it? As long as it is something Cihang can do, I will naturally not refuse!"

Cihang waved her hand and helped Di Jiang up.

Although he helped the Witch Race a lot, he didn't come away empty-handed.

He has received more than a dozen Innate Spiritual Treasure alone.

By that calculation, the Witch Race owes him nothing at all.

Moreover, even for Houtu's sake, he would not turn a blind eye to the plight of the Witch Race.

But when Cihang saw Chiyou, Cihang felt utterly powerless.
