The Heavenly Court Appears, The Beginning of the Witch-Demon Hegemony

"So comfortable~~"

Ever since Hongjun finished his sermon, Xuan Yi had been staying at Buzhou Mountain.

After Nuwa spent a thousand years in seclusion at the beginning, the two of them spent the rest of the time in each other's arms.

During this period, a major event also occurred in the Primordial Chaos.

Di Jun, who was in seclusion on the Sun Star, suddenly had a premonition that an opportunity had appeared on Buzhou Mountain.

"Brother, I suddenly had a feeling that Buzhou Mountain is summoning me with an opportunity."

"Then I'll accompany you, brother."

With that, the two of them set off for Buzhou Mountain together. After several years of flight, Buzhou Mountain was finally in sight.

"As expected of Buzhou Mountain, we can't fly. We can only walk slowly. Otherwise, with our cultivation, we would have arrived long ago."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi couldn't help but sigh. Buzhou Mountain was truly a magical place.

Di Jun followed the summons to a cloud-shrouded area on Buzhou Mountain. He saw the clouds churning in the sky, and where there was originally a vast open space, a magnificent grand hall appeared.

Each hall exuded immense power, shrouded in immortal mist, and engraved with countless mysterious patterns, exuding a mysterious aura. It was clearly a blessed land.

"This is truly a gift from heaven!"

"Quick, let's go take a look."

The two of them hurried towards the grand hall.

As they approached, a plaque came into view, inscribed with the words "Heavenly Court."

"Heavenly Court, Heavenly Court, hahaha!"

Di Jun and Tai Yi were overjoyed. "Heavenly Dao bless us, to have found such a treasure. Indeed, even Heavenly Dao is helping us. Now we can establish our own power!"

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi channeled their full magical power and swore an oath to Heavenly Dao.

"Heavenly Dao above, we two hereby establish the Demon Race. All plant spirits and transformed beasts in the Primordial World shall be of the Demon Race."

"I, Di Jun, shall be the Demon Emperor, suppressing our destiny with the top-grade Xiantian Spiritual Treasure, the River Diagram and Luo Book."

"I, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, shall be the Demon Emperor, suppressing our destiny with the Xiantian Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell."

Their voices echoed throughout the Primordial World. The Demon Race welcomed their two rulers, and thus the Demon Race was established.

As their voices faded, Heavenly Dao responded. The Demon Race was to be established. In an instant, golden lotuses filled the sky, and a surge of merit descended from the heavens, transforming into two beams of golden light that rushed towards them.

"Merit from the heavens!"

Di Jun exclaimed in surprise. He never expected that establishing a race would bring forth heavenly merit. This meant that Heavenly Dao had recognized the Demon Race and acknowledged their status.

Afterward, Di Jun and Tai Yi absorbed the merit into their bodies. As the merit integrated, their realms rapidly improved, instantly reaching the peak of Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Then, relying on their immense power, they began to recruit soldiers and buy horses, quickly amassing a considerable force.

News of Di Jun establishing the Demon Court soon reached the ears of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. The Ancestral Witches had always been arrogant; they only respected Pangu and not Heavenly Dao. Buzhou Mountain was their base, and they could not tolerate anyone defecating above their heads.

"Big brother, these two feathered birds are too disrespectful. I'll go pluck their feathers right now."

Zhu Rong, with his fiery temper, couldn't swallow this insult and immediately prepared to teach Di Jun and Tai Yi a lesson.

"The Demon Race has been developing rapidly recently. Several Grand Unity Golden Immortals have already joined the Demon Court, coupled with Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Chaos Bell. If we attack rashly, we might not gain the upper hand."

Zhu Jiuyin frowned and voiced his opinion.

"Indeed, to confront the Demon Court, the twelve of us alone are not enough. We need our own forces."

Di Jiang spoke.

"Follow me!"

Di Jiang led the other Ancestral Witches to Pangu Hall.

"Big brother, isn't this the blood pool where we were born?"

"That's right. Since we are going to war with the Demon Court, it won't be enough with just a few of us. We need to create our own people."

"Since we took form from Father God's blood in the blood pool, our own blood should also be able to create people through the blood pool."

With that, Di Jiang dripped his own blood into the blood pool.

The other Ancestral Witches followed suit.

Several hundred years later, the Twelve Ancestral Witches indeed sensed life force emanating from the blood pool.

"We succeeded! This way, our people can be born continuously."

Seeing the experiment succeed, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were extremely excited. With a method in hand, they began to mass-produce their people.

The newly born Witch Race needed to eat, and their food source was some small demons that had not yet taken form. As the population of the Witch Race slowly increased, the demons near Buzhou Mountain were almost wiped out.

Di Jun and his followers naturally could not ignore this situation, and thus conflicts frequently erupted between the two races.

As the conflict between the Witch and Demon races deepened, the tribulation energy in the River of Destiny also began to gather.

Xuan Yi did not pay too much attention to the events unfolding in the Primordial World, as he was still immersed in Nuwa's tender embrace.

"Haha, wife, give me a kiss."

The two, having thoroughly confirmed their relationship, no longer felt the shyness they once did. Every day, they flaunted their affection in front of Fuxi.

Fuxi was now practically invisible to Nuwa and Xuan Yi.

Fuxi: My heart aches, I don't want to see you two being so lovey-dovey.

"Eh, it's him!"

Xuan Yi, who was showering Nuwa with affection, sensed a creature at Buzhou Mountain that piqued his interest.

At the foot of Buzhou Mountain, a monkey with six ears walked with vacant eyes.

That's right, this monkey was the Six-Eared Macaque.

When the Dao Ancestor was preaching, he had just been born. With only the realm of a Heavenly Immortal, he couldn't traverse the Chaos to listen to the Dao Ancestor's sermon. Helpless, he used his innate divine ability to eavesdrop.

As a result, he was discovered by the Dao Ancestor, not only suffering severe injuries but also being told the phrase, "The Dharma is not taught to the six ears."

This completely blocked the Six-Eared Macaque's path to seeking the Dao.

Now, the great powers of the Primordial Chaos saw the Six-Eared Macaque as if he were a plague god, and they all avoided him.

Today, the great power he visited unhesitatingly kicked him out the door.

With no way to seek the Dao, he could only come to Buzhou Mountain to try his luck.

"Interesting. In the future, you are a pawn for the great prosperity of Buddhism. If I were to intercept both the Six-Eared Macaque and the Lingming Stone Monkey, I wonder if Buddhism could still prosper."

With this thought, Xuan Yi decided to test the Six-Eared Macaque's resolve in seeking the Dao.

"Little monkey, if you can stay in my formation for one hour, I will take you as my disciple."

The dejected Six-Eared Macaque suddenly heard a ethereal voice. Immediately after, a formation descended from the sky.

"Thank you, senior, thank you, senior! Six-Eared will not fail your expectations."

Having no path to seek the Dao, the Six-Eared Macaque felt as if he had heard heavenly music at this moment. Without any doubt that he was being deceived, he plunged headfirst into the formation.

"What? Is this little monkey so special? The Dao Ancestor said the Dharma is not taught to the six ears, why do you suddenly want to take him as a disciple!"

Nuwa, standing nearby, was somewhat puzzled. The Six-Eared Macaque was a creature born from the splitting of the Chaos Demon Ape. Although his talent was decent, it wasn't worth risking the Dao Ancestor's displeasure to take him as a disciple.

"I just feel a connection with this little monkey. Don't worry, Father won't blame me."

Xuan Yi naturally couldn't tell Nuwa that he knew the development of the Primordial Chaos, so he could only speak vaguely.

"I've given you a chance to change your destiny. I hope you can hold on."

Looking at the Six-Eared Macaque walking into the formation, Xuan Yi sighed inwardly.
