Almost at the same moment Qing Huan left, a golden streak of light shot into the hall, transforming into Yuanfeng's younger sister, Golden Phoenix.
Her face was filled with deep confusion and anxiety as she said urgently:
"Clan leader! Does the future of our Phoenix Tribe truly rest entirely on Qing Huan's shoulders?"
The Dao Ancestor Hongjun personally declared that the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao would soon emerge, Fellow Daoist Nuwa would be one of them!
I have some connection with her; if I could serve her, wouldn't it be wonderful when she becomes a saint...?
"Hmph! What a foolish opinion!"
Before Golden Phoenix could finish speaking, Yuanfeng interrupted her with a cold, sharp shout, filled with a sharp disappointment.
"You only know that Nuwa is about to become a saint, but do you know that she is close friends with the rising Di Jun and Tai Yi, and has already joined the nascent demon race?"
Have you forgotten the horrific tragedy of the Three Clans war of yesteryear?
Even if the demon race were to establish itself, its Luck would be as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind, and could be extinguished in an instant!
Now, the Primordial Wilderness Calamity Qi, and a new Tribulation is imminent. What difference does it make whether one sides with Nuwa or joins the demon race and steps into the center of this Tribulation?
Although Fellow Qing Huan is Heavenly Dao Sage Hongjun said, his Dao Cultivation, Luck, and foundation are unfathomable, which is why he was able to secure a sliver of survival for my Phoenix Tribe amidst this monstrous Tribulation!
Yuanfeng's words struck Golden Phoenix like a heavy hammer, shattering her seemingly sound suggestion completely.
Those demons are clearly destined to be the protagonists of this Tribulation Heavenly Mandate; to throw themselves into it is tantamount to courting death!
Golden Phoenix lowered her head, her gauze-like eyelashes concealing the turbulent thoughts in her eyes, and ultimately remained silent.
Yuanfeng let out a long sigh that echoed in the scorching earth. Light flowed in his palm, and eight crystal-clear water droplets, shimmering with the strange light of the sun, moon, and stars, quietly appeared.
"Take this and distribute it to the elders."
Yuanfeng's voice carried an undeniable air of authority.
"With this Three Lights Divine Water, they may be able to survive the end of the Tribulation."
Otherwise... my Phoenix Tribe may never again possess the power to Primordial Wilderness world."
The Phoenix Tribe has dwindled, with only one Primordial Origin Golden Immortal elder struggling to keep it afloat. Including the Golden Phoenix, there are only six Daluo Golden Immortal left.
Looking across the Primordial Wilderness today, many powerful beings have already reached the realm of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal (Quasi-Sage), and the Phoenix Tribe's meager strength is truly in grave danger.
If it weren't for the Three Lights Divine Water brought back by those two little fellows last time, which kept the Great Elder alive, the Phoenix Tribe would have already lost a pillar of the clan.
A single drop of divine water barely quelled the backlash and erosion of the Heavenly Dao's karmic force. Now, with another drop, it would be enough to protect the Grand Elder and help him safely weather this new Tribulation.
Looking at the eight drops of dazzling, ever-flowing divine water in her palm, brimming with boundless vitality, Golden Phoenix's heart trembled violently.
These priceless treasures... could they have been bestowed upon us by that Qing Huan?
Its profound knowledge and wisdom are truly unfathomable, inspiring awe and fear.
"Chief, I shall take my leave now."
Golden Phoenix carefully put away the divine water, bowed respectfully, and her figure transformed into a stream of light, quietly disappearing beyond the raging flames of the Volcano of Immortality.
Qing Huan stepped out of the Phoenix Tribe's nest, clouds rising beneath his feet, and headed straight for the far west of the primordial Primordial Wilderness.
Repairing the western earth veins is a crucial part of the plan concerning the Dao Foundation for achieving sainthood.
Qing Huan had long suspected why the position of Sage was so rare in the Primordial Wilderness world.
The root cause may lie in these broken ley lines.
The Antarctic region has been almost completely destroyed, and the West is also severely damaged. Repeated Tribulation wars have left the Primordial Wilderness world scarred and its essence constantly being lost.
To replenish the Primordial Origin, stabilize heaven and earth, and thus obtain vast Merit and Luck to Attain Sagehood, repairing these two ley lines is the ladder to heaven!
As his thoughts raced, Qing Huan's figure had already entered the western Earthly Realm.
Suddenly, a strong sense of palpitation struck without warning, as if a giant wave was churning in the darkness.
His brows furrowed slightly, and his Spiritual Sense spread out like a tide, instantly locking onto the source of the tremor—the southwest direction!
He immediately turned the clouds around, tore through the sky, and sped toward the place he sensed.
Outside Longevity Mountain and Wuzhuang Temple, a malevolent aura soars to the heavens!
The twelve towering, god-like figures— the Twelve Ancestral Witches formed from the Pangu's Essence Blood —were each displaying their supernatural powers. The raging torrents of energy, like chaotic tides, crashed repeatedly against the pale yellow light curtain that enveloped the Wuzhuang Temple.
That light barrier was exceptionally tough; it was the Earth Book Array, transformed from the Earth Book (Earth's Fetal Membrane) Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures that Zhenyuanzi relied on to make a name for himself!
"Brother! Zhenyuanzi's tortoise shell is incredibly hard!"
We bombarded this place for countless Huiyuan Era, yet not even a crack appeared!
Zhurong was surrounded by raging flames, roaring furiously. His enormous fist, carrying the Sky-Burning Fire, slammed into the light barrier, stirring up ripples all over the sky, but ultimately failed, only adding to his anxiety.
Di Jiang's eyes were sharp as knives, and the space around him slightly distorted as he said in a deep voice:
"Hmph! Even the hardest tortoise shell can't withstand the relentless wear and tear from the twelve of us brothers!"
Even so, my heart was heavy.
Zhenyuanzi is a cunning fellow. He can mobilize the power of the earth's veins within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles and combine it with the Earth Book to make this small Daoist temple as solid as a rock. He is truly extremely difficult to deal with.
Zhu Jiuyin, who had been silently observing the battle, suddenly turned his gaze to Houtu beside him, whose temperament was gentle and composed, and said:
"Little sister Houtu, you wield the Essence of Wutu, and are the Earth Ancestral Witch, most intimately connected with the earth's veins."
"I wonder... if we could try severing the connection between this grand formation and the earth's veins?"
These words were like a bolt of lightning flashing across the night!
The other Ancestral Witch were all taken aback, then their eyes blazed with wild joy!
Di Jiang slapped his forehead suddenly, his voice booming like a bell:
"Indeed! We were rash! We completely forgot about my little sister's abilities!"
Houtu, try it quickly, break its foundation! Let's see how long this tortoise shell can stay hard!
Houtu's heart also stirred.
With the help of her primordial spirit and the spiritual treasures and roots collected by the Witch Clan, her understanding of the Great Dao of Earth has far surpassed that of the past, and her cultivation has reached the level of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
At this moment, awakened by his brothers, a powerful sense of self-confidence welled up within him.
"Brothers, please wait a moment, I'll give it a try!"
Houtu let out a shout, and her eyes instantly transformed into pure earth-yellow divine light.
She slowly raised her slender hand, palm down, and pressed it lightly. A profound, obscure, and heavy wave of law, centered on her, spread out silently and penetrated deep into the earth.
They attempted to communicate with, sort out, and even forcibly reverse the flow of earth vein energy towards Wuzhuang Temple!
In an instant, the Innate Grand Formation light screen protecting Wuzhuang Temple suddenly shook violently!
The torrent of pale yellow earth vein spiritual energy that had been continuously flowing into the great formation suddenly slowed down, and even showed a slight... sign of flowing back!
"It's done! My little sister is truly amazing!"
Gonggong was overjoyed and couldn't help but praise him aloud.
"At crucial moments, it's still my second brother who's the most insightful!"
Xuan Ming, Qiang Liang, and other Ancestral Witch also showed excited expressions.
Only Gou Mang, the Wood Ancestral Witch, had a slight frown on his brow.
Although I was delighted by Houtu's progress, a sliver of doubt flickered in my mind:
While my younger sister is indeed powerful with the help of the primordial spirit, that Earth Book was formed from the membrane of the Primordial Wilderness Earth's Fetal Membrane and contains the original will of the earth!
This is Zhenyuanzi's treasure for cultivating both life and death. Can my little sister, relying solely on the Law of Earth, truly surpass it and completely control the power of the Earth's Fetal Membrane?
