The Method of Resurrection and Plans for the Future
Cihang has always been clear about her gratitude and grievances.
Compared to the demon race, he had a close relationship with the Ancestral Witch.
The Twelve Ancestor Witches all treated him with genuine sincerity.
As Houtu said, the Witch Race is a descendant of Pangu, so how could they have fallen into such a state?
Although Cihang was powerless to change the fate of the Witch Race, she still wanted to try her best to preserve a glimmer of hope for the Ancestral Witch.
Cihang crafted the All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner not only to enhance the strength of the Witch Race, but also to leave a way out for the ancestral Ancestral Witch.
He also intercepted a portion of the grand formation's aura and essence within the Myriad Immortals Diagram.
However, Cihang himself was unsure whether his plan would succeed.
During the Lich Demon Formation, Cihang also used the Myriad Immortals Diagram to sketch the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods.
At the moment of the Ancestral Witch's fall, he used the Myriad Immortals Diagram to recall the All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner and secretly activated the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods to gather the essence and blood of the Ancestral Witch.
The Houtu was not informed about the All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner beforehand was not Cihang was greedy for the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods.
Instead, the great formation only gathered the essence and aura of the Ancestral Witch, without any true spirits.
The true spirits of the Ancestral Witch have returned to the world as their physical bodies shattered.
Cihang also did not want to give Houtu hopeless expectations.
Unexpectedly, Houtu asked the question first, so naturally, she wouldn't hide it any longer.
Compared to the original, the aura of the Twelve All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banners is now much stronger.
Even without the Ancestral Witch Bloodline, Cihang could still summon the Pangu True Body by using the Fiend God Banner Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods.
When her expectations became reality, Houtu could not hide her excitement.
After a short while, Houtu finally managed to regain her composure.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, what is the current condition of your brothers? Is there any hope of them recovering?"
Although Houtu's strength surpasses Cihang's, her understanding of the Great Dao and her application of supernatural powers are far inferior to Cihang's.
"I can't be sure right now either."
Although these Twelve All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banners gather the essence and aura of the Ancestral Witch, they do not contain any true spirit imprints.
This is also the real reason I didn't tell my friends.
I fear that you, my fellow Daoist, have just gained hope, only to end in failure in the end."
Cihang sighed; restoring the life force of the Ancestral Witch was proving to be far more difficult than he had imagined!
Is there really no chance at all?
Houtu also knew that what Cihang said was true; she indeed did not sense the aura of the true spirit within it.
But she still refused to give up.
It's not entirely hopeless!
Although Di Jiang and several other fellow Daoists perished, their true spirits did not completely dissipate. Instead, they transformed into countless fragments, scattered throughout the origin of the Primordial World.
Using this All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner as a guide, it is possible to reunite the fragments of the true spirit.
However, in practice, it proved to be more difficult than anticipated.
"With my current strength, I can't do it!"
Nothing is absolute, especially for these top-tier experts.
Even though they perished, they left a deep mark on the Primordial World.
However, truly bringing them back to life is not so simple.
"As long as there's still a chance!"
Upon hearing Houtu, Tu breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if there's only the slightest chance, she'll try and wait.
"That's good, as long as there's still a chance."
"Now that you've asked, fellow Daoist All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner should be returned to its rightful owner!"
Cihang Jieyin the Twelve All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banners away from the Myriad Immortals Diagram little by little.
An even stronger aura of All-Heavenly Divine Fiend rose from the main hall.
Although the Twelve Heavens Array of All Fiends is powerful, it ultimately does not belong to Cihang.
"Fellow Daoist, you mustn't!"
Before Cihang could finish his hand seals, Houtu unleashed her aura, stopping Cihang's actions.
"In this Primordial World, when it comes to the Dao of Vitality and Creation, only Nuwa can be compared with you, fellow Daoist."
Fellow Daoist, my brothers Di Jiang and others still have a glimmer of hope, but I have absolutely no clue what to do.
When gathering the remnants of my elder brother's spirit, I will also need to trouble you, fellow Daoist.
These Twelve All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banners are a token of my gratitude to my fellow Daoists.
In times of crisis, it can also be a source of assistance.
Moreover, these Fiend God Banner were originally crafted by you, fellow Daoist; you are their true master!
Houtu's expression was resolute, without the slightest reluctance.
She has a clear understanding of herself.
Although she desired to revive the Ancestral Witch, she was powerless to do so.
In comparison, Cihang is the one with the best chance of resurrecting the Ancestral Witch.
She also had complete trust in Cihang.
"Since you have entrusted me with this task, Fellow Daoist, Cihang will certainly not let you down!"
After confirming Houtu's stance, Cihang no longer insisted on returning the Fiend God Banner.
It wasn't that Cihang was reluctant to part with them; indeed, as Houtu said, only in his hands was the hope of the Twelve Ancestor Witches reuniting their true spirits the greatest.
Although he did not have the Pangu Bloodline, he inherited the legacy of the Chaos Green Lotus that gave birth to Pangu.
The essence and aura of the Azure Lotus also have a great blessing and auxiliary effect on the Ancestral Witch.
There is still a very subtle connection between him and the Ancestral Witch.
And most importantly, the reason why the Ancestral Witch perished was because Heaven could not tolerate them.
Naturally, they would not be allowed to come back to life.
But the Glass Realm is different; only in the Glass Realm can the Ancestral Witch have the chance to be reborn.
"There's no need for you to Houtu needs to do, please don't hesitate to ask!"
Upon learning that the Ancestral Witch might recover, Houtu's heavy heart lifted somewhat.
"Fellow Daoist has reminded me that there is something I need you to arrange."
The more cultivators in the world remember the true spirits of the Ancestral Witch who resisted them, the greater their hope of recovery will be.
Conversely, if all cultivators forget the existence of the Ancestral Witch, they will have no chance of being resurrected!
"After you return, fellow Daoist, you can arrange for the Witch Race to offer more sacrifices to strengthen the Ancestral Witch's imprint on the world."
Cihang waved his hand and extracted a wisp of the Ancestral Witch's aura, condensing it into twelve divine statues.
Although Houtu did not perish, the Twelve Ancestor Witches complemented each other, and it is not impossible that they could reunite their Ancestral Witch True Body in the future.
"Thank you, Houtu. Houtu will go back and make the arrangements immediately."
Houtu thanked them profusely and, carrying the statue of the Ancestral Witch, hurriedly returned to the Netherworld.
She not only wanted the Witch Race to continue worshipping her, but also wanted even more spirits of the dead to worship her.
After Houtu left, Cihang couldn't help but start making plans for himself.
The rise of the human race naturally benefited him as well.
Given his understanding of Fuxi and Nuwa, he might not be content to continue occupying one-tenth of the human race's destiny.
There are other sages who will absolutely not let this go.
Cihang is not afraid, but some conflicts are completely unnecessary.
He needed good fortune, but he didn't want to Karma too deep a karmic connection with the Primordial World.
"Humanity's fortunes are good, but it's time to make some choices!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Cihang's figure disappeared from the Life Temple.
When Cihang reappeared, it was already in the South Continent).
Under Cihang's arrangement, the Five-Colored Human Race occupied almost half of the South Continent, sharing the South Continent's fortune with the Phoenix Clan Race.
Moreover, unlike the humans of the East Victory Divine Continent, the Five-Colored Human Race all possess extraordinary cultivation levels.
Cihang initially merged the Five-Colored Human Race with the human race to strengthen the human race's foundation and to allow the Five-Colored Race to reappear in the Primordial World.
But they are ultimately different.
Especially with the intervention of Taiqing and Nuwa, the Five-Colored Human Race and the Human Race seemed to be two separate races.
