During Li Yunjing's journey, the Twelve Ancestral Witches had already engaged the Heavenly Court's five Quasi-Saints in a battle that shook the heavens and earth. The armies of the Demon Race and the Witch Clan, along with their twelve tribes, were rapidly approaching the battlefield.

"Xihe, be careful! Everyone, let's retreat first! We'll return to the main army and then deal with the Witch Clan!"

Di Jun saw that the ten great marshals and three hundred and sixty-five Demon Gods were leading tens of millions of troops. He immediately forced back the Ancestral Witch beside him and then helped Xihe repel Xuanming.

Following this, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Emperor Xi Fuxi, and Demon Master Kunpeng fought and retreated, converging with the armies descending from the Thirty-Three Heavens.

"Damn it! We failed to kill Di Jun again this time!"

Seeing Di Jun and the others successfully retreat, several Ancestral Witches were furious. Their previous attempt to ambush Eastern Emperor Taiyi had failed, and they hadn't expected Di Jun to be alone. They were so angry that they almost vomited blood for missing such a golden opportunity.

With the Demon Race army gathered, the Twelve Ancestral Witches dared not charge the formation. They also retreated into the Witch Clan's army.

Banners fluttered, and killing intent filled the air. Before the two armies, there was silence. After a long while, the sound of war drums echoed through the heavens and earth. The two camps were about to engage in a decisive battle!

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a roar erupted between heaven and earth. Li Yunjing's figure abruptly appeared before the two armies. Seeing that the great battle had not yet begun, Li Yunjing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. At the same time, he felt an immense killing intent converge upon him, a feeling more painful than a thousand arrows piercing his heart.

"Immortal Slaying Sword Formation! Rise!"

Li Yunjing steadied himself, unleashing the full extent of his Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation. A formation diagram, wrapped around four killing swords, instantly shot towards the front of the two armies.

As the Immortal Slaying Formation diagram unfolded, the "Immortal Slaying Sword," "Slaughtering Immortal Sword," "Trapping Immortal Sword," and "Absolute Immortal Sword" were positioned at the four corners, forming the four sword gates.

Above the sword gates, the killing swords flashed, emitting earth-shattering killing intent that no immortal, god, demon, or devil could withstand.

"By the decree of the Primordial Limitless Saint, Sect Master Tongtian!"

As the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was activated, Li Yunjing's expression turned stern. He scanned the armies of the Witch and Demon races, pointed a finger, and a divine light shot into the Immortal Slaying Formation diagram. The killing formation immediately began to operate. The four sword gates simultaneously unleashed earth-shattering sword light, all brimming with killing intent. With a single sweep, everything before the two armies was flattened, creating a vacuum zone spanning thousands of miles.

The seventeen Quasi-Saints of the Witch and Demon races were all shocked, their faces grim. They saw Li Yunjing, the true disciple of the Jie Sect, standing atop the great formation, with the "Immortal Slaying Sword" hanging to the east, the "Slaughtering Immortal Sword" to the south, the "Trapping Immortal Sword" to the west, and the "Absolute Immortal Sword" to the north. Before them were gates and doors, exuding a chilling killing aura and a mournful wind.

Witnessing the great techniques of Pangu's orthodox lineage and the Xuanmen, the Demon Race felt fear. This was the second time since Dao Ancestor Hongjun that a Saint had displayed their might in the Primordial Desolation.

Sect Master Tongtian did not appear, yet he sent a disciple who could awe two powerful races and countless experts. This showed the immeasurable power of a Saint.

"Previously, by the decree of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Witch and Demon races were forbidden from engaging in warfare for ten Kalpas. Today, you have disturbed the Primordial Desolation and slaughtered billions of living beings, defying the Heavenly Dao. The Sect Master strictly orders that the armies of the Witch and Demon races must withdraw, or face severe punishment!"

A wave of silence fell over the hundreds of millions of troops from both races, with only the boundless killing intent stirring up layers of hurricane, scattering the clouds and mist.

After a long while, Di Jun regained his usual composure, though his face was grim. The grief of losing his son was irreconcilable. Di Jun's voice echoed through heaven and earth, "The Witch and Demon races bear deep hatred. After one Kalpa, our two races will fight to the death!"

Di Jun's words seemed to be a vow of the Heavenly Dao, instantly spreading throughout the entire Primordial Desolation.

"Hmph, do you think our Witch Clan is afraid of your Demon Clan? After one Kalpa, it will be an endless battle!" Dijiang said coldly. He then turned to the Witch Clan army, waved his hand, and said, "Withdraw the troops!"

Seeing both the Witch and Demon armies orderly withdrawing under the awe of the Saint's might, Li Yunjing took another deep breath. Facing hundreds of millions of immortals and gods, it was a lie to say he wasn't afraid!

In the Witch-Demon era, even the weakest soldiers of the two races were Heavenly Immortal realm experts. With such vast armies, the mere convergence of their gazes could make a Quasi-Saint tremble.

If Li Yunjing hadn't appeared with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, let alone speak boldly, he wouldn't have been able to stand steadily before the two armies. If he hadn't knelt down with weak legs, it would have been a disgrace to the reputation of the Jie Sect.

This was a unique experience, one that would never come again. He had witnessed such a grand, god-like, and demonic war scene.

In the future, after countless eons, the Primordial Desolation would grow weaker and weaker.

By stopping the Witch-Demon war, Li Yunjing's name, along with the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation," spread throughout the Primordial Desolation. Originally, only a few great divine abilities users knew this third-generation disciple of the Xuanmen due to their relationship with the Three Pure Ones. Now, the entire Primordial Desolation knew the name Chaos Child, Li Yunjing. This was another gain.

After retracting the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation," Li Yunjing transformed into a stream of light and returned to Golden Ao Island.

"Senior Brother is mighty!"

As soon as he returned to the island, countless Jie Sect disciples rushed forward to greet Li Yunjing. Their faces were flushed with excitement. The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and Senior Brother Wu's intervention in stopping the Witch-Demon decisive battle had greatly boosted the Jie Sect's prestige. They all wished they could immediately leave the mountain gate, travel the Primordial Desolation, display the Jie Sect's banner, and show off their might.

"Alright! Everyone, Junior Brothers, we'll talk later. I need to see the Teacher first to return the treasure." Li Yunjing smiled. These guys were truly restless.

This time, Li Yunjing had displayed the Jie Sect's might. The day of "Myriad Immortals Come to Court" was not far off. It was estimated that countless beings in the Primordial Desolation would rush to the East Sea again, searching for Golden Ao Island.

"Chaos Child, your mission was completed very well. The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation will be temporarily yours to study. You may go."

After meeting Sect Master Tongtian in "Biyou Palace" and explaining the mission, Sect Master Tongtian did not rush to retrieve the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation." Instead, he allowed Li Yunjing to continue studying the laws within it.

"Yes! This disciple thanks Teacher for his nurturing!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed. He hadn't expected to have more time to continue mastering the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation." This was excellent news.

After leaving "Biyou Palace," Li Yunjing, along with some close fellow disciples, returned to "Chaos Palace." He personally hosted them and, at the same time, explained some of the doubts regarding the Supreme Clarity Great Dao to his Junior Brothers and Sisters.

Among these fellow disciples, Li Yunjing valued Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming the most, as they were seeds for future Quasi-Saints. As for Winged Immortal, Qiongxiao, Bixiao, Fairy Caiyun, and the others, they were still a bit weaker. Even if they were promoted to Quasi-Saint in the future, they would only be ordinary figures, and it would be difficult for them to endure the passage of time and achieve great things.

Li Yunjing did not hesitate to guide his Junior Brothers and Sisters. He even gifted them some Five Elements Spirit Fruits and Enlightenment Tea Leaves, generously helping them improve their strength.
