Inside the magnificent Lingxiao Treasure Hall on the Thirty-Three Heavens, a solemn atmosphere pervaded the air.
Di Jun sat at the head of the table, his expression somewhat serious. The demon Demon Clan had shown weakness in this battle against the Witch Clan, which weighed heavily on his mind.
The Ten Great Demon Sages stood on either side of the hall. Taiyi stood with his arms crossed beside Di Jun, Fuxi held the Eight Trigrams Disc and closed his eyes to deduce the omens. Even Kunpeng, who was usually playful, had a gloomy expression.
"In this battle against the Witch Clan, our Star Dou Great Formation was ultimately inferior to the Witch Clan 'Dutian Divine Fiend Formation. Let's discuss what to do next." Di Jun's voice was as cold as ice.
He waved his hand and unfurled the River Diagram and Luo Shu, and in the light and shadow, the image of Pangu Phantom shattering Stars with a single punch reappeared, causing many Demon God to fall.
As the strategist of the Demon Clan, Bai Ze had clearly already considered this beforehand and stepped forward first, saying, "Your Majesty, although the Pangu Phantom summoned by the Witch Clan only condensed 30% of its power, it is already enough to contend with our race's Heavenly Cycle Stars Great Formation."
I believe we need to start from the following points:
First, continue to improve and strengthen the Heavenly Cycle Stars Great Formation to enhance its overall power;
Secondly, although the Witch Clan's Divine Fiend Array is powerful, it requires the gathering of all twelve Ancestral Witch, and the more Baleful Qi gathered, the stronger the Formations becomes. We can start from these two points. If we can find a way to eliminate a few Ancestral Witch, preventing them from forming the Great Formation, or cut off the gathering of Baleful Qi in the Witch Clan's Great Formation, then they may not be our match.
Third, regarding the Physical Body the Ancestral Witch, we should try to find a way to counter it, and find a specific Secret Art or Magic Treasure;
Fourth, one could seek cooperation with the Three Pure Ones.
"Very good, Bai Ze's words hit the nail on the head. Does anyone else have anything to add?" Di Jun praised Bai Ze and continued to ask.
Kunpeng then spoke up, "I think we can try to recruit those powerful figures from the Witch Clan who attacked them when we were seizing the Hongmeng Purple Qi. Given the Witch Clan's domineering and madness, they will likely not let those who attacked them go unpunished. This is a good opportunity for us to win them over, especially Blood Sea Minghe. His strength is considerable and can greatly enhance our power!"
"Absurd!" Taiyi retorted sharply. "That Blood Sea Minghe bastard used every trick in the book to seize the Purple Qi, and afterwards, seeing the Witch Clan's growing power, he secretly slipped away. How can such a weathervane be worth winning over!"
Di Jun looked at Taiyi with displeasure. "Taiyi, control your emotions."
Since this is a discussion, everyone should speak freely. I believe the Demon Master's words make sense. The current situation is unfavorable to us, and anyone who can enhance our strength is worth winning over.
"Let's do as the Demon Master said. He will be in charge of communicating with them and trying to bring them into our camp as soon as possible."
"Does anyone else have any good suggestions?"
While the Demon Clan was preparing for future battles, the Twelve Ancestral Witches also gathered in the Pangu Hall deep within Buzhou Mountain to discuss matters.
Dijiang's expression was no better than that of the Demon Clan Di Jun, after all, the Witch Clan was now being targeted by a Saint.
Dijiang touched his chest, where his sternum had been injured by the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi; wisps of foul air seeped from the cracks.
His gaze swept over the crowd. "In this battle, we clearly have the upper hand. If this continues, victory will surely be ours."
Unfortunately, with the emergence of all Six Saints, the situation in the Primordial World has changed, and it is no longer a matter of us and the Demon Clan being the only two dominant forces.
Our clan is currently in a precarious situation; the slightest negligence could lead to our extermination.
You all saw the look Yuanshi gave before Yuanshi left; he certainly won't give up. We must secure a future for our men.
"Hmph!" Gonggong, Gonggong with resentment upon hearing this, slammed his fist on the ground. "Does Saint have the right to do whatever he wants?"
Houtu then suggested, "Eldest Brother, I propose that the clan's resources be tilted towards the Matters of Reincarnation. We should accelerate the construction of the Nine Netherworlds and allow more clansmen to join the world of Reincarnation. This way, once the world of Reincarnation is completed, we can occupy more important positions and strengthen our power within Reincarnation. Furthermore, we can also protect more clansmen."
Furthermore, perhaps we could also consider the Yin-Yang Fetal Membrane that Jiang Yun demonstrated that day?
"Okay!" After considering it for a while, Dijiang and Zhujiuyin immediately made the decision. "The matter of Houtu's Matters of Reincarnation is the top priority. Resources and manpower can be used freely, with Xuanming and Shebishi assisting."
The rest of you should focus on training your own Great Witch. We need to prepare for the worst and preserve some Fire Seed so that Houtu can take them to the Land of Reincarnation.
Once Houtu establishes the Reincarnation, we'll have a way out. Then we'll have no worries. If Yuanshi wants to go crazy, we'll go crazy with him to the very end!
"Eldest Brother's right, let's see who's afraid of whom then!"
Longevity Mountain, Wuzhuang Temple.
Hong Yun and Zhenyuanzi watched the Witch-Demon War at Wuzhuang Temple. At this moment, Hong Yun and Zhenyuanzi felt the Two but endless relief.
Inside the Wuzhuang Temple, Qingfeng and Mingyue placed the Ginseng Fruit they had picked on the table.
To celebrate Hong Yun's enlightenment and finding her true nature, Zhenyuanzi had Qingfeng and Mingyue use Golden Striker to knock down all the ginseng Ginseng Fruit from the tree.
That's enough for them to satisfy their appetites.
Hong Yun was holding a half-eaten Ginseng Fruit, juice dripping from her fingers onto her clothes, looking completely content.
"Brother Dao, look!" Hong Yun pointed to the shattered crown of the Yuanshi in the Water Mirror, his face filled with shock. "The power of this Witch Clan's Gods and Fiends Great Formation is truly formidable! If I had known that the Purple Qi could produce such a spectacle, I should have kept it for a few more days before throwing it away!"
Looking at him like this, Zhenyuanzi said helplessly, "You're quite carefree."
However, it was truly timely for you to abandon the Hongmeng Purple Qi this time; otherwise, look at the scene—even Saint had to get involved.
I wonder where the last fragment of Purple Qi went?
Hong Yun didn't care at all. "Zhenyuanzi, now that we've let it go, why should we keep dwelling on this matter!"
Instead of wasting time like that, you'd be better off savoring the Ginseng Fruit. You really should learn from Qingfeng and Mingyue!
Upon hearing this, Zhenyuanzi looked at Qingfeng and Mingyue, only to see them silent, focused solely on the cleanup operation...
Mount Sumeru, inside the Grand Hall.
Zhunti, Jieyin, Ziwei, Jiang Yun, and Kong Xuan were all discussing the upcoming battle in the main hall.
The power of the Great Formation of the Witch and Demon Clans was indeed astonishing, especially the Witch Clan's Great Formation, which summoned the Pangu Phantom and condensed the Sky-Opening Axe, causing even Yuanshi to suffer a great loss.
However, those from the Western Teachings present could also foresee the fate of the Witch and Demon Clans.
Now, in this Primordial World, it is the era of Saint ruling the world.
If Saint wants to promote education, he needs to expand his sect and spread the Dao Lineage.
However, this matter will certainly be restricted by the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan at present. After all, both clans have their own traditions and beliefs. Di Jun Dijiang cannot and will not allow the Saint to spread to their own races, as that would inevitably affect their foundation of rule.
Therefore, the Witch-Demon, being two far too powerful races, must fall.
With the fall of the Witch-Demon, it will be time for the Human Clan to rise to power. Jiang Yun bluntly stated that the Western Teachings needs to make arrangements early to seize the initiative.
