Pangu Hall.
Zhou Ming looked at the younger brothers and sisters in front of them who had different expressions and obviously had something to say, and was the first to break the silence. "Okay, just say what you have to say."
"Looking at the way you are holding it back makes me feel uncomfortable."
Hearing what Zhou Ming said, Twelve Ancestor Witches looked at each other and communicated with each other for a moment.
After hearing Zhou Ming's words, everyone Ancestral Witch looked at each other and their eyes met.
In the end, it was Dijiang who took the lead to step forward and asked in a deep voice, "Brother, we really have something unclear, and I would like to ask you to clarify it."
"Oh? There's something you don't understand, but it's okay to say it." Zhou Ming motioned for him to continue.
Dijiang organized his language and asked, "Brother, in the previous confrontation with Hongjun, you kept insisting that I Witch Clan would not join this Tribulation, and even asked Hongjun to personally agree. Why is this?"
He paused, with a hint of arrogance in his tone. "With my current strength, Witch Clan, if we don't want to get involved with Tribulation, who else can force us to do so?"
"Yes, brother!" Zhurong, with his fiery temper, couldn't hold back his words and immediately answered in an angry voice.
"Furthermore, Demon Clan has repeatedly provoked us. Why don't we take this opportunity to completely destroy Demon Clan?"
"Without Demon Clan, wouldn't there be no more so-called Tribulation of Witch and Demon? It's over once and for all, how happy it is!"
Gonggong also nodded repeatedly, his voice like thunder. "Zhurong is right!"
"In my opinion, those two flat-haired beasts Di Jun and Taiyi should be killed! Why did the elder brother let them go? Isn't this letting the tiger go home?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Brother, just kill those flat-haired beasts and avoid future troubles!"
"It's okay to kill the two culprits Di Jun and Tai Yi, but leaving them alone will always be a disaster!"
The other Ancestral Witch also echoed and chatted, and the hall suddenly became lively.
In their opinion, Witch Clan had a great victory today, even Dao Ancestor and Heavenly Dao were beaten away. It was the best time to pursue the victory and completely solve the serious problem of the Demon Clan.
Zhou Ming raised his hand to signal them to be calm.
When the hall became quiet again, he slowly said, "Before I answer your question, let me ask you a question first. What do you think is the scariest thing about Tribulation?"
"Tribulation What is the scariest thing?"
Everyone Ancestral Witch was stunned when they heard this.
In their simple concept, Tribulation is nothing more than fighting and killing, and the strong is respected.
With the power that Witch Clan has shown now, with Pangu's True Body's move and Sky-Opening Axe's wave, even Dao Ancestor and Heavenly Dao have to retreat. What can Tribulation do to them?
No big deal, just push it all the way across!
Just beat him! Whoever refuses to obey, beat him until he obeys!
Zhurong scratched his head and said uncertainly, "The most terrifying thing? Isn't it just that you can't defeat it and then you are exterminated?"
"But now, we can even defeat Heavenly Dao, so what's there to be afraid of?"
"Yes, brother, isn't Tribulation just fighting and killing? Whoever has the bigger fist is the right one. Who are we Witch Clan afraid of?" Gonggong also said coldly. He has always believed in the supremacy of strength.
Zhujiuyin narrowed his eyes slightly and said thoughtfully, "Brother, what you mean is that the scary thing about Tribulation is not a pure confrontation of strength?"
Zhou Ming glanced at Zhujiuyin approvingly, then looked at all Ancestral Witch, and slowly said the answer, "The most terrifying thing about Tribulation is that there are almost no real winners."
"No matter how strong your initial strength is, once you get caught up in it and are obsessed by the tribulation energy, you may end up in a miserable end, or even lose everything."
"How could it be possible!" Zhurong was the first to not believe it, "Brother, how powerful I, Witch Clan, am now!"
"As soon as Thirteen Heavenly Gods and Fiends Array appeared, Father God reappeared. Neither Old Man Hongjun nor that Heavenly Dao are our opponents. How could we lose?"
"Yes, brother, are you too careful?" Shebishi couldn't help but speak.
Zhou Ming shook his head and patiently explained, "Do you know what will happen with the endless killing in Tribulation?"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, he continued, "It's Karma!"
"As long as you participate in Tribulation, you will inevitably kill and fight, and you will inevitably cause damage to the Primordial Wilderness world."
"Every killing, every destruction will produce corresponding Karma."
"If the killing is too heavy and the damage to Primordial Wilderness is huge, the accumulated Karma will be like maggots attached to the bones, entangled endlessly."
He looked at the faces of everyone Ancestral Witch who were getting serious, and emphasized his tone. "Once Karma is entangled, it will at least affect your practice, Dao heart will be covered in dust, and your cultivation will be difficult to reach."
"What's more important is that Destiny/Fortune has declined, been despised by Great Dao, has been hated by Father God's will, and is not tolerated by heaven and earth!"
"Think about the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn tribes back then. How powerful were they? What ended up in the end?"
"Isn't it because Tribulation was too heavily killed, Karma was entangled, and eventually Destiny/Fortune was exhausted, the tribe withered, and the strong fell."
"To this day, it is difficult for me to regain my strength. I can only shrink into a corner and linger on."
Hiss--!
As soon as Zhou Ming said this, Pangu Hall fell into a dead silence.
They knew the fate of Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans. That was the existence that once dominated Primordial Wilderness, but now it can only shrink into a corner and survive.
Zhou Ming looked at their reactions and continued, "This is why I don't advocate exterminating Demon Clan."
"Destroying Demon Clan seems to be a done deal, but I, Witch Clan, will also be burdened with an unimaginably huge Karma."
"If you want to eliminate this kind of Karma, how much merit and Destiny/Fortune are needed to offset it."
"My witch clan has indeed accumulated a lot of merit over the years by sorting out the ancient land and refining evil spirits."
"But these merits are probably nothing compared to the monstrous Karma produced by destroying the entire Demon Clan. What's more..."
There was a hint of respect in Zhou Ming's voice. "Father God World Creation, incarnating all things, is for the prosperity and vitality of Primordial Wilderness, not to let my Witch Clan family dominate and kill wantonly."
"Father God He never wants to see me, Witch Clan, with my hands covered in blood, killing too much, and ultimately following in the footsteps of the three clans."
When everyone Ancestral Witch heard this, they all lowered their heads, thoughtfully.
Father God is the supreme belief in their hearts.
Zhou Ming's words forced them to re-examine their previous ideas.
"As for Di Jun and Taiyi," Zhou Ming changed the topic, "Killing them will indeed solve some problems in the short term."
"But treating the symptoms rather than the root cause, if Heavenly Dao wants to promote Tribulation of Witch and Demon, without Di Jun and Tai Yi, He will naturally support a new Person of Destiny, a new 'Demon Clan'."
"Instead of doing this, it's better to keep them."
"At least, they were completely frightened by me Witch Clan this time. In a short period of time, they will not dare to provoke me Witch Clan easily again."
"Keep them, maybe... they will be used for other purposes in the future."
After hearing Zhou Ming's detailed explanation, everyone Ancestral Witch suddenly realized and understood the profound meaning and foresight of the elder brother.
It turns out that the immortal Demon Clan is not out of mercy, but for the longer-term future of the Witch Clan.
Zhou Ming nodded slightly and continued, "As for why it must be Hongjun, personally promise me that Witch Clan will not enter Tribulation."
"That's because Hongjun is the spokesperson of Heavenly Dao in Primordial Wilderness."
PS: I am quite busy at work today, so the update is a bit late, and there will be another one tonight.
