"Father God above!"
"..."
The Ancestral Witches fell into a frenzy one after another, bowing and saluting toward Buzhou Mountain, the Pillar of Heaven.
But Great God Pangu's will did not respond to them, as though it had never appeared at all.
As time passed, Zhu Jiuyin, the wisest among the Ancestral Witches, was the first to recover.
"Could it be that the Primordial World truly is incomplete?"
"Father God rewarded Bai Chen because he wanted to use this to guide and hint to us that the Primordial World is flawed!"
Zhu Jiuyin kept pondering this in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Bai Chen had said might be true.
The Primordial World created by Father God Pangu might really be incomplete.
Chapter 18: Extorting the Ancestral Witches!
Bai Chen was just about to leave, intending to collect the Hong Meng Liang Tian Chi and then find somewhere to study the Jade Disk fragments, when Zhu Jiuyin suddenly called out to him:
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, do you think you could continue what you hadn't finished saying?"
As soon as Zhu Jiuyin spoke, the other Ancestral Witches came back to their senses.
"This Great God is tired. This Great God is going back to sleep!"
Bai Chen did not give Zhu Jiuyin any face. When Great God Bai Chen had wanted to speak earlier, those sis-cons had all harshly rebuked him.
Now Great God Bai Chen was unhappy and did not feel like talking anymore.
!!!
The Ancestral Witches' faces darkened. Although Bai Chen looked like a small beast with mediocre strength, he was still an Innate Divine Beast by nature.
Would an Innate Divine Beast tire so easily? Did it need to sleep?
Was this Fat Cat treating them all like fools? Could it not come up with a more suitable excuse?
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, we were in the wrong just now. We apologize to you."
Zhu Jiuyin, the wisest among the Ancestral Witches, knew when to stand firm and when to yield.
For the chance to attain the Dao, he did not hesitate to lower himself and apologize to Bai Chen.
Seeing that Zhu Jiuyin had a fairly good attitude, Bai Chen stopped and pulled out his Hammer of Morality, saying:
"My great hammer was damaged just now when it fought the Innate Gourd Vine."
There were several cracks on Bai Chen's Hammer of Morality. They had been left behind during its battle with the Innate Gourd Vine.
Bai Chen seriously suspected that Yuanfeng had deceived him. When Yuanfeng had helped him refine the Hammer of Morality, she had guaranteed that this Houtian Supreme Treasure could contend with several Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Yet it had been damaged after fighting the Innate Gourd Vine for such a short time.
Bai Chen felt that either Yuanfeng had lied to him or her artifact-refining skills were lacking.
Yuanfeng: Lazy cat, I never expected you to take that hammer and fight a Chaos Demon God that wasn't completely dead!
It truly could not be blamed on Yuanfeng. The Innate Gourd Vine was far stronger than Bai Chen. Even though it had not taken form, its physical body was still extremely powerful.
One only had to look at the seven gourds it would bear in the future. Each of them would be a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. From this alone, one could tell how powerful the Innate Gourd Vine's physical body was.
Bai Chen toyed with his great hammer and stated his conditions:
"Ancestral Witch Zhu Jiuyin, this Great God wants some divine iron from outside Pangu Hall to refine a magic treasure."
Pangu Hall had been transformed from Great God Pangu's heart, while the divine iron outside Pangu Hall had been transformed from Great God Pangu's protective heart flesh.
Bai Chen believed that a magic treasure refined from the divine iron transformed from Great God Pangu's chest flesh would certainly possess impressive power.
"Fine. This Ancestral Witch agrees!"
Ancestral Witch Dijiang, the leader of the Ancestral Witches, agreed to Bai Chen's request on behalf of them all.
Houtu played with Bai Chen's little tail, helping him smooth his fur as she said:
"Little White, as long as you tell us the method of attaining the Dao, we will not only give you the divine iron outside Pangu Hall, we will also help you refine it into a Witchcraft Artifact."
Houtu knew that Bai Chen was naturally lazy, so she voluntarily offered to help him refine the treasure.
"(ˉ▽￣~) Tsk~~"
Bai Chen turned his head toward Houtu and gave her a disdainful look before letting out a snort.
Bai Chen's attitude made Xuanming beside them very unhappy. She reached out and pinched Bai Chen's cheek, saying:
"Lazy cat, are you looking down on the inheritance of Pangu's Orthodox Lineage? The Witchcraft Artifacts we refine are no weaker than those spiritual treasures."
Xuanming was incomparably confident in the Ancestral Witches' inheritance because it came from their Father God Pangu.
Bai Chen slapped Xuanming's hand away with one paw and roared:
"Xuanming, are you stupid?"
"This Great God is an Innate Divine Beast, not a witch. I don't have Pangu's bloodline, so I can't use Witchcraft Artifacts."
The Ancestral Witches did not cultivate their primordial spirits and could not use magic treasures. They could only use Witchcraft Artifacts.
Innate Deities and Innate Divine Beasts did not have Pangu's bloodline either, so they could not use Witchcraft Artifacts.
Even if the Ancestral Witches really refined a Witchcraft Artifact for Bai Chen, it would not display its true power in his hands. He could not use a Witchcraft Artifact to unleash Dao arts and divine abilities.
After Bai Chen's roar, Xuanming, having no grounds to argue, fell silent, because everything was exactly as Bai Chen had said.
However, being called stupid by Bai Chen still left Xuanming very unhappy.
Just as the Ancestral Witches were waiting for Bai Chen to reveal the secret, Bai Chen shifted his gaze toward Ancestral Witch Dijiang again:
"Ancestral Witch Dijiang, I heard that you inherited Great God Pangu's Space Laws and Speed Laws."
"I'm very interested in the Space Laws and Speed Laws. How about you give me some essence blood containing the power of those Laws so I can comprehend the Space Laws?"
Because Buzhou Mountain's Pillar of Heaven suppressed the Primordial World, its spatial order was incredibly firm.
Only powerhouses who had attained the Primordial Unity, or living beings who possessed the Space Laws, could travel through the void.
Bai Chen thought that once he comprehended the Space Laws, he could steal spiritual treasures in the future~
No, he meant borrow someone else's spiritual treasure and flee through the void directly. Then he would not have to worry about being caught.
Dijiang had inherited Great God Pangu's Space Laws and Speed Laws. He was the Ancestral Witch of space and speed, and his essence blood had already been imprinted with the power of those Laws.
Bai Chen estimated that if he refined the essence blood of Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch of space and speed, and received the assistance of the Jade Disk fragments, comprehending the Space Laws would not be difficult.
"What?"
Ancestral Witch Dijiang was shocked when he heard this. This Fat Cat actually wanted him to shed essence blood? It was simply bullying a witch too much.
He did not want to bleed. If he did, his strength would inevitably decline, and he would need a long time to recover.
"Bai Chen, don't go too far. You'd better stop while you're ahead."
Ancestral Witch Dijiang sternly warned Bai Chen, hoping that he would know when to stop and not become insatiably greedy. Otherwise, he could not blame Dijiang for using force.
Seeing that Ancestral Witch Dijiang was about to attack, Bai Chen hurriedly hid in Houtu's arms. He held the Jade Disk fragments in one paw and pointed at Dijiang with the other as he shouted:
"What? You want to fight?"
"Do you see what this is?"
"These are Jade Disk fragments, which Great God Pangu just rewarded me with."
"Great God Pangu only just rewarded me, and you already want to attack this Great God? You Ancestral Witches truly live up to the name of Pangu's Orthodox Lineage!"
Great God Bai Chen was not afraid of these sis-cons. He had plenty of ways to deal with them.
To control these sis-cons, he could rely on two things: Xuanming and Houtu, and Great God Pangu.
He hid in Houtu's arms and used her as a shield, while holding the Jade Disk fragments Great God Pangu had just rewarded him with as a death-prevention token. He refused to believe that these sis-cons would dare attack him.
"You—"
Seeing Bai Chen like this, Dijiang was so furious that he gnashed his teeth.
He wanted to beat Bai Chen, but the circumstances did not allow it!
This shameless evil beast should come out of his sister's arms and put down the Jade Disk fragments before talking.
"Big Brother, for the chance to attain the Dao, why don't you make a small sacrifice and give him some essence blood containing the power of the Laws?"
While Dijiang was troubled, Zhu Jiuyin offered a suggestion.
"Big Brother, we have the Pangu Blood Pool anyway. The essence blood we lose can be restored through the Pangu Blood Pool."
As soon as Zhu Jiuyin spoke, the other Ancestral Witches nodded in agreement and chimed in.
In any case, Bai Chen wanted Dijiang's essence blood, not theirs.
Dijiang was the eldest brother of the Twelve Ancestor Witches. A small sacrifice from him was not too much, right?
Chapter 19: What Goes Around Comes Around!
"Fine, I'll give it!"
Faced with the betrayal of his brothers, Ancestral Witch Dijiang could only agree to Bai Chen's request helplessly.
Being the big brother was hard!
"Fill it!"
Bai Chen tossed a jade bottle to Dijiang, then shifted his gaze toward Zhu Jiuyin again:
"Ancestral Witch Zhu Jiuyin, I remember that you inherited Great God Pangu's Time Laws. I'm quite interested in the Time Laws as well."
The Three Thousand Laws appeared equal in name, but in reality, they differed in strength.
The Law of Strength wielded by Great God Pangu was the strongest of the Three Thousand Laws, followed by the Time Laws and Space Laws.
Bai Chen wanted to learn the Space Laws, and he wanted to learn the Time Laws too.
Once he learned the Time Laws, hehe, things would get interesting.
When fighting an enemy, he could use the Time Laws to pause time for them. Wouldn't the enemy then be helpless to resist as he carved them up?
