Nine Sons Perish, the Witch-Demon Feud Deepens
"The Demon Clan, the Golden Crow, have gone too far! They should be killed!" With bloodshot eyes, Da Yi rushed towards the place where Kuafu had fallen at an incredible speed.
He and Kuafu were both elite figures among the Great Witch of the Witch Clan. They had sparred quite a bit in the past, and their relationship was very good.
Seeing Kuafu's body lying beneath the True Sun Fire, he was heartbroken.
Under this scorching sky, the Witch Tribe under his jurisdiction also suffered heavy losses in this disaster. Faced with the powerful True Sun Fire, most ordinary Witch Citizen and Witch Soldier Witch General could not withstand it.
Arriving atop the mountain range that Kuafu had transformed into after his fall, Da Yi raised his head. At that moment, the terrified screams of his people, the sight of children instantly turning to ashes, and the tragic figures of Kuafu and his brothers, towering high yet ultimately collapsing in the distance, merged and exploded in his mind.
His eyes were as cold as ice, staring at the ten golden figures swirling and spreading death in the sky.
"You beast!"
Da Yi let out a low roar, without the slightest hesitation in his heart.
His arms bulged with muscles, unleashing a force comparable to that of Shanyue. He drew the "Cloud-Piercing Sun-Shooting Bow," a weapon passed down from ancient times and repeatedly refined with the core of a divine tree and the fascia of a giant beast, into a full moon shape!
The nine specially made bone arrows in his quiver, named Soul-Chasing Sun-Pursuing Arrows, emitted a chilling dark light. They were made from the leg bones of Primordial World Primordial Ferocious Beast, tempered with secret talismans of the Witch Clan and Earthly Fiend Qi energy. They were extremely cold and, combined with his own witch power, could suppress the True Sun Fire!
"First Arrow - Soul-Splitting!" The bowstring twanged like thunder, and the first Soul-Chasing Arrow transformed into a streak of dark light that tore through the void. Ignoring spatial barriers, it carried Da Yi's grief and indignation and the indomitable will of the Witch Clan, precisely piercing the core of the Seventh Golden Crow Prince was charging at the forefront!
Before the Golden Crow could even let out a scream, its massive body suddenly stiffened, and the dazzling True Sun Fire around it abruptly went out. Like a falling Stars, it crashed to the ground, raising towering clouds of dust and Earth Fire.
Its Primordial Spirit was completely shattered by this arrow, leaving only the pure energy of the great sun.
The death of a Golden Crow did not cause the slightest fluctuation in Da Yi's eyes; he remained frighteningly calm at that moment.
"Second arrow— Space-Piercing!"
The second arrow followed closely, piercing the neck of the Ninth Golden Crow Prince, who was panicking after his Elder Brother's death and trying to rise higher. The curse on the arrow suddenly erupted, directly crushing the proud head and soul together!
The next moment, a charred, headless giant raven fell to the ground.
The sudden demise of the two brothers instantly awakened the remaining Golden Crow who were still immersed in the pleasure of Destruction!
They screamed in terror, instinctively trying to rise higher and escape, while frantically spewing true fire to cover themselves, attempting to dispel the terrible shadow of death, and gathering together to form a broken Golden Crow Great Formation, trying to defend themselves together.
"Can you dodge it?" A cold smile curled at the corner of Da Yi's lips, the deadly intent of a hunter locking onto his prey.
"Third Arrow - Cloud-Piercing!" The third jet-black arrow seemed to have eyes, and it followed the extremely brief moment of stagnation in the operation of the Golden Crow Great Formation, passing under the rapidly flapping wings of a Golden Crow, and pierced the vital chest and abdomen of the Eighth Golden Crow Prince, who was located at the rear of the formation and was frantically searching for cover!
The Golden Crow let out a long, mournful cry, and the flames around it flickered and died out like a candle in the wind before crashing heavily to the ground, turning a mountain range into a sea of fire.
The Slaughter continues!
The shadow of death completely enveloped this group of gifted young people.
They originally lived in Tanggu, and their minds were still very simple. In addition, they were unable to contain the power of the True Sun Fire. They were always under the control of Di Jun and could only live on the Sun Star, so they lacked knowledge of many things.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be so oblivious to killing, continuing their true fire power without restraint, only caring about their own pleasure.
Therefore, the fact that Da Yi Shoots the Suns was their own doing!
"Fourth Arrow - Sun-Piercing!" It shot towards the First Golden Crow Prince, who was hovering high in the sky, attempting to direct a counterattack.
"Fifth Arrow - Star-Pursuing!" This arrow snipes the fastest Third Golden Crow Prince Da Yi, who was attempting to dive down and attack Yi.
"The sixth arrow— Soul-Nailing!" ended the attempt by the Fifth Golden Crow Prince to escape.
"Seventh Arrow - God-Slaying!" It pierced through the air as the Second Golden Crow Prince, who was enraged and diving down to spew fire, was struck.
Each arrow carried with it the boundless rage of Da Yi and his unwavering determination to kill.
Each tremor of the bowstring was accompanied by the mournful final cry of a Golden Crow and the sudden extinguishing of the flames.
Those specially crafted "Soul-Chasing" arrows, like the scythe of death, ignored the struggles and fragile defensive auras of the Golden Crow, precisely taking their lives.
When the eighth arrow left the bowstring, blasting the terrified Fourth Golden Crow Prince, who was desperately fleeing towards the higher sky, into a shower of True Sun Fire, the remaining two Golden Crow —the Sixth and the timid Tenth, who had always hidden behind the other Golden Crow —had completely lost their minds.
They abandoned all resistance and formation, relying solely on the extreme speed of the Rainbow Transformation Technique, like a chaotic mass of golden light and shadow, desperately trying to escape the deadly arrows, frantically darting and flying erratically through the high sky.
Da Yi's gaze was fixed on their terrified, trembling backs. He coldly nocked the ninth Soul-Chasing Arrow and shot down the tenth one, who was running ahead.
"The fate is sealed, the tenth arrow— the Killing Blow!" The bowstring was pulled to its limit, and the moment it was released, the air was compressed into a vacuum!
This arrow, accompanied by a piercing shriek that seemed to shatter the void, transformed into a black meteor carrying the power of the Earthly Fiend Qi, hurtling straight towards the panicked golden light.
However, at this critical moment, a roar filled with boundless terror, despair, and heartbreak erupted from the above the Nine Heavens: "Stop—Freeze!"
Before the words had even faded, a figure transformed into a rainbow of light and tore through space!
The newcomer was none other than Di Jun!
He finally broke through the Heavenly Secrets Lockdown and arrived, but the scene that greeted him was heartbreaking.
In the air, the last remaining Sixth Golden Crow was locked onto by the black arrow that exuded an aura of annihilation, with no way to avoid it!
So he quickly used the power of the Laws to suppress the space along with the arrow.
Scattered across the earth are the remains of nine Golden Crow that were once as radiant as the Sun. Now, all of these remains have lost their brilliance and their divine feathers have withered!
One of them had its True Sun Fire power destroyed by a curse, another was decapitated, and the rest were pierced through vital organs by sharp arrows.
The once majestic and noble offspring have now become the most tragically mutilated corpses on earth.
"You wicked witch, how dare you!" Di Jun's eyes were bloodshot with rage, his golden pupils instantly turning crimson with fury!
The excruciating pain of losing his nine sons, and the overwhelming rage of having his dignity as the Demon Emperor trampled upon, instantly ignited his dormant Sun energy.
He didn't even use the River Diagram and Luo Shu; it was purely the True Sun Fire that erupted from his body, originating from his Bloodline!
This flame was no longer merely a domineering Divine Ability, but the mournful cry of the Demon Emperor, Blood-Weeping!
Without any warning, a blazing white pillar of fire, condensed to its extreme and imbued with Di Jun's supreme majesty and all his killing intent, hurtled towards Da Yi in the blink of an eye, exceeding the speed of light!
"BOOM!!!"
A deafening roar shook the heavens!
The tenth Soul-Chasing Arrow, whose power was enough to kill Daluo Golden Immortal, melted and evaporated like ice and snow the moment it collided with the True Sun Fire that Di Jun spewed out in anger!
The arrowhead and shaft together turned into wisps of blue smoke.
The blazing white pillar of fire, powerful enough to incinerate the void, continued its relentless advance, its remaining force like a raging white dragon, instantly engulfing the Great Witch Da Yi, who had just completed their Killing Blow and were now exhausted!
There was no time to scream, no pain, no struggle.
Time seemed to freeze for a moment.
When the white pillar of fire dissipated, Da Yi and the hundred-zhang radius of land beneath his feet, along with the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, had completely vanished!
All that remained was a massive, charred crater with glassy lava flowing around its edges, and a wisp of smoke rising from the center of the crater.
The Great Witch Da Yi, who had just displayed his might and shot down nine suns, was burned to nothingness by Di Jun's imperial wrath, leaving not even a trace of ashes behind!
"Da Yi!!!"
Just as Da Yi died, a roar that shook the very fabric of space resounded!
Space violently twisted and folded, and the figure of Dijiang, the ancestral witch of the witch clan, suddenly appeared in the sky above the battlefield!
He witnessed firsthand the terrifying white light that completely vaporized Da Yi!
He saw the nine Golden Crow corpses on the ground, and he also saw Di Jun engulfed in Destruction golden flames, and behind him, the only remaining Golden Crow —the sixth one—was still in shock, its feathers charred and trembling.
"Di Jun!!" Dijiang's eyes were bloodshot, and Spatial Power roared around him, like a Primordial World beast that had been provoked.
You allowed your son to commit atrocities, Ten Suns in the Sky, slaughtering my clan's Kuafu and burning countless lives!
Now you dare to kill my Da Yi Great Witch, Yi, right before my eyes!
This is truly an outrage against Heavenly Dao and Earth!
His voice shook the heavens and the earth, filled with overwhelming killing intent and an unyielding determination to fight to the death.
At this moment, Di Jun's heart was also filled with endless grief, indignation, and rage.
The pain of seeing nine of his ten sons die tragically burned in his soul, and faced with Dijiang's rebuke, he felt only a deeper rage.
"Shut up, Dijiang!" Di Jun's body was wreathed in golden flames, his voice as cold as ice, each word seemingly spat out from between his teeth.
The Ten Suns in the Sky was not my wish; there must be a demon at work among them. But your clan's Great Witch dared to slaughter my nine sons!
This is an irreconcilable feud!
Da Yi was the culprit, and deserves to die!
If you keep making a fuss, I'll let you taste the power of my True Sun Fire!
"What a fine excuse, 'not what you wanted,' and 'you deserve to die!' Dijiang laughed in fury, his Space Ancestral Witch's pressure intensifying. 'Your son has brought disaster upon the world, killing my Great Witch Kuafu and burning my Ancestral Witch totem. You have brought about your own destruction!'"
Da Yi rid the world of Primordial World and saved countless lives from fire and water. He is the supreme hero of our Witch Clan and is revered by many beings!
As the Demon Emperor, instead of reflecting on your failure to discipline your subjects, you dare to act perversely, distort the truth, and even kill someone who has performed such a great Merit!
Today, I, Dijiang, on behalf of Da Yi and all living beings, will demand justice from your Demon Clan race!
Before he could finish speaking, Dijiang had already made his move!
He didn't use any fancy supernatural Divine Ability; he simply and directly traversed space, arrived in front of Di Jun, and threw a punch!
This punch carried his rage against the Ten Suns Calamity. Wherever his fist passed, space shattered like fragile glass. Layer upon layer of Spatial Power was compressed to its limit, carrying a terrifying force capable of shifting Stars and shattering Laws, and directly slammed into Di Jun's face!
At this moment, Di Jun still needed to protect the panicked sixth Golden Crow behind him.
Golden Crow Lao Liu was still in shock, his Yuyi were disheveled, and his aura was weak. He was unable to break free from his father's protection.
Di Jun had to protect his six remaining sons while also facing the deadly attack from the enraged Ancestral Witch Di Jiang. He had no choice but to defend!
"A mere trick, yet you dare to show off your skills before an expert!" Di Jun, his anger blazing, also threw a punch to meet the attack!
His fist, enveloped in a dense, crimson-gold True Sun Fire, seemed to be holding a miniature Sun Star core.
He didn't dodge or evade, choosing the most direct and confrontational approach!
"Boom--!!"
The moment their fists met was like the collision of two Primordial Stars!
A visible wave of Destruction suddenly spread out in a Perfect World ring, centered on the fist!
The earth below was silently obliterated the moment the ripples touched it, creating a massive circular crater millions of feet deep!
The air was instantly emptied, creating a terrifying vacuum!
The Heaven and Earth Laws were thrown into chaos by this single strike!
Di Jun was so shocked that his blood and qi surged, and he involuntarily took half a step back, but his figure remained as upright as an immortal Shanyue, firmly protecting Lao Liu behind him.
"Hmph! Di Jun, you're nothing special! Are you even holding back when facing me head-on?"
Dijiang's attack failed to achieve its full effect. He raised an eyebrow, revealing his arrogance, and pressed forward step by step. The Spatial Power in his palm transformed into an invisible giant blade, and each slash carried the power to cut through dimensions.
"You should release that feathered beast and fight me with all your might!"
Otherwise, don't blame me for crushing you and this bastard together!
Di Jun deflected one spatial slash after another, golden flames swirling around him, constantly being torn apart and reborn by the spatial blades, his hair standing on end in fury.
"Dijiang, cease your arrogance!"
"If you want to harm my son, you'll have to defeat me first!" Di Jun roared fiercely, his Demon Emperor's majesty and his father's anger merging into one. Even though he was restrained, he did not yield an inch in terms of momentum.
Two earth-shattering pressures and killing intents collided and clashed fiercely in the air, turning the center of the battlefield into a chaotic dead zone where even light was distorted.
Just as the two top experts were locked in a stalemate, their killing intent almost igniting the heavens and earth, another cold and urgent Moonlight tore through space and arrived.
"His Your Majesty!"
A clear shout, carrying immense Magical Power, reverberated outwards.
It turned out that Changxi sensed the abnormality through her Bloodline and followed the guidance of her Bloodline to this place.
Meanwhile, the demon Demon Saint such as Xi Huang Fuxi, Ying Zhao, and Jiu Ying, who were left behind in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall Demon Clan demon race, were ready. The Ancestral Witch such as Qiangliang and Rushou of the Witch Clan also sensed this earth-shattering collision and led their respective core forces to tear through space and descend to the battlefield one after another!
Before long, this scorched earth, which had just borne the marks of ten days of devastation, was completely filled with the elite forces of the Witch and Demon Clans. At the center of the two races were Di Jun Dijiang, who were still fighting each other.
As for the sixth Golden Crow, Di Jun had already thrown him to Changxi's side, who had just arrived.
The elite warriors of both sides stood in formation facing each other, their killing intent soaring to the sky. The churning demonic Yao Qi clashed with the turbid evil energy, turning the sky into a terrifying battlefield interwoven with gold, red, and dark yellow.
However, whether it was Chang Xi, who arrived late, or the other demon saints and ancestral witches who had just landed, they all felt extremely heavy-hearted when faced with the clash of the abyss-like and almost tearing apart the primordial space between Di Jun and Di Jiang in the core area. For a moment, no one dared to easily break into that domain to stop them.
However, the Dao Ancestor's decree has not yet been repealed, Witch and Demon Clans have been at peace for millions of years. If war breaks out now, no one can bear the consequences!
Fuxi knew that the situation was urgent. Not to mention that the Demon Clan was powerless to fight against the Witch Clan because they lacked top-notch combat power such as Eastern Emperor, the Demon Master, and the seven Demon Saints, starting a war at this time would also anger the Dao Ancestor.
He was extremely anxious, but he first comforted Changxi, who had lost her child, explaining the seriousness of the situation. Then he shouted loudly towards the Two fighting figures:
Ancestor Witch Dijiang, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, please stop!
The Primordial Desolation World suffered Great Tribulation, the earth was devastated, and the resentment soaring to the heavens has yet to subside!
To incite another war between the two races at this moment would not only go against the Heavenly Dao order of things, but would also anger the Dao Ancestor!
"The Dao Ancestor is above, and the prohibition still stands. Do you two intend to ignite boundless karmic fire, causing both races to perish?"
His voice, like a clear spring flowing into scorching earth, echoed clearly in the ears of Di Jun Dijiang Di Jun Dijiang, instantly extinguishing the anger in their hearts.
The Spatial Power that Dijiang was surging wildly suddenly stopped!
The bloodthirsty rage in Demon Emperor Di Jun's all-consuming crimson-gold pupils had subsided considerably.
The two men's fists, powerful enough to shatter Stars and relentlessly clashing, suddenly stopped in mid-air at the same moment!
The terrifying energy storm lost its source and slowly dissipated, leaving only a suffocating killing intent still lingering in the air.
Dijiang looked around, his gaze sweeping over the gruesome corpses of the nine Golden Crow on the ground. His cold gaze finally settled on Di Jun, whose aura was churning. "Hmph, Di Jun, you have caused a great disaster by indulging your son. First, you harmed the Primordial World, and then you slaughtered my clan's Great Witch. This hatred cannot be resolved with words!"
Our Witch Clan will forever remember this!
One day, our Witch Clan will surely crush the Demon Court and use your blood to pay tribute to our Kuafu, Da Yi, and the countless lives lost!
He then unleashed a deafening roar at his arriving Ancestral Witch and elite Witch Clan: "Today's humiliation will be repaid a hundredfold in the future! Retreat for now!"
Di Jun stared intently at Dijiang, his chest heaving violently, golden flames flickering around him.
He spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice as cold as iron. "Dijiang! I will remember the pain of losing your son for now!"
We'll settle accounts when the great war begins!
The two leaders' sharp, piercing gazes met in mid-air, seemingly about to spark.
Dijiang withdrew his gaze and vanished from the spot in a flash.
The remaining Ancestral Witch glared fiercely at Di Jun, said nothing, and gathered the elite Witch Clan gathered below, transforming them into streams of turbid evil energy, and departed towards Buzhou Mountain.
As the Witch Clan army withdrew, Di Jun's tense body relaxed slightly, and the golden flames enveloping him flickered violently, appearing somewhat dim.
A wave of exhaustion washed over him instantly, almost making him lose his balance.
"Your Majesty!" Changxi immediately stepped forward and supported Di Jun's arm in time.
Di Jun took a deep breath, barely suppressing the churning blood and endless grief and exhaustion, and forced himself to stay alert.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned the nine enormous Golden Crow corpses on the ground, which were lifted up by an invisible force and carefully gathered together.
He gazed at the ravaged remains of his offspring, their divine feathers disheveled, his eyes filled with a mixture of grief and hatred, which ultimately dissolved into a cold silence.
"Return... to... Heaven... Court!" Di Jun's voice was hoarse and heavy, each word seemingly carrying immense weight.
He turned around and stepped into the torn spatial gate, with Changxi following closely behind, carrying the only surviving sixth prince.
Ying Zhao and the other Demon Saint silently watched this desolate scene and quietly directed the Demon Clan army to retreat.
