Battle Continues

and killing members of the Demon Clan and Witch Clan could be considered food, while also increasing one's own strength.

As for the Demon Clan, they possessed immense numbers, nearly inexhaustible.

In terms of numbers, the Demon Clan was more than ten thousand times that of the Witch Clan.

Even if one member of the Witch Clan killed ten thousand demons, the Demon Clan would not be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.

The battle continued, and in the blink of an eye, a century passed.

Now, the Great Demons and Great Witches were locked in fierce combat, with many Great Witches and Great Demons injured, and even some falling.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches, Dijun, and Taiyi had already been confronting each other from afar.

They were constantly prepared to unleash the highest level of battle.

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

Countless demons surged like a tide, madly rushing towards the Witch Clan's territory.

Fight!

Fight!

Fight!

The warriors of the Witch Clan erupted with powerful fighting spirit, like tigers entering a flock of sheep, continuously reaping the lives of the demons.

"Big Brother, it's time for us to make a move!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi had long been impatient. Now, he looked at the figures of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and said coldly.

"Good!"

Dijun also nodded, then his figure flashed, and he was the first to charge towards the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi followed closely behind.

Behind them were other powerful figures of the Demon Clan, such as Kunpeng and Fuxi.

Seeing the arrival of the powerful demon experts, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were also filled with fighting spirit.

"Kill!"

"Slaughter these demons!"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

The Twelve Ancestral Witches also unleashed their massive true forms, charging towards Dijun, Taiyi, and the others of the Demon Clan.

In the valley, Hongyun stood up.

With a wave of his hand, the Qiankun Cauldron stopped spinning, and a golden bow and arrow appeared inside.

One bow, twelve arrows!

"This... is a set of Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures!"

"And it's one of the more powerful existences among Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures."

Hongyun felt the aura emanating from the golden bow and arrow and rejoiced.

This time, the golden bow and arrow he refined was not only a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, but each arrow was also a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

This meant he had obtained thirteen Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures at once.

Swish.

Hongyun waved his hand, put away the Qiankun Cauldron, and held the golden bow.

Then, he unleashed the Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique and pulled with all his might.

Buzz!

The golden bow was drawn.

"So strong!"

The draw weight of this bow was dozens of times that of the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow.

"A bow like this is suitable for me to use!"

Hongyun nodded.

The draw weight of the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow was too small, and it couldn't unleash his full strength at all.

But the power of this bow was sufficient, and it could perfectly carry the power of his Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique.

Of course, it would be even better if this set of bow and arrows could advance further and become a Postnatal Merit Supreme Treasure.

But now, Hongyun had no merit to rely on, so he couldn't use the Qiankun Cauldron to refine a Merit Supreme Treasure.

"Has the second great war between the Witches and Demons reached its decisive battle!"

Hongyun looked up, his vision pushed to its absolute limit.

Beyond the countless trillions of miles, he saw the great battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan.

There...

The Twelve Ancestral Witches had already clashed with Dijun, Taiyi, and the others.

Once powerhouses of their level engaged, it meant the battle had reached its decisive stage.

Of course, even if they started fighting, it wouldn't conclude in mere decades or even a century.

"It's time to trick the Demon Clan again!"

Hongyun had just refined a handy bow and arrow, contemplating how to use it for mischief.

He wouldn't directly participate in the Witch-Demon Tribulation, as that would entangle him in karma.

If he couldn't achieve sainthood in time, he would be caught in the Heavenly Dao's catastrophe, possibly even perishing into dust.

However, merely tricking the Demon Clan wouldn't pose much of a problem.

And it would also earn him System rewards.

With that thought, Hongyun's figure flickered, and with a whoosh, he flew towards the Lunar Star.

On the Lunar Star.

Hongyun's arrival also surprised Xihe and Changxi, the two divine maidens of the Great Desolation.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two figures, clad in white and ethereal as if celestial maidens had descended, appeared before Hongyun.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun, why have you come to my Lunar Star?"

Xihe, recognizing Hongyun, inquired.

Beside her, Changxi also gazed at Hongyun with curious eyes.

Their impression of Hongyun, like many in the Great Desolation, was that he was a good-natured person.

Therefore, they didn't feel unwelcome by his arrival, nor were they particularly overjoyed.

"Two divine maidens, several months ago, I unintentionally pierced the Lunar Star with an arrow. I've come to apologize, and I hope you won't hold it against me."

Hongyun first apologized for his previous actions at the Witch Clan's territory.

At that time, he was testing the Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique within the Witch Clan's domain and had shot an arrow casually, not intentionally aiming at the Lunar Star.

He hadn't expected that arrow to pierce the Lunar Star; it could only be described as an accidental mishap, a misunderstanding.

"What? Months ago... that arrow was shot by you?"

Hearing Hongyun's words, Xihe, who had been composed moments before, suddenly gasped, asking in disbelief.

"Impossible, you can shoot arrows? And such a powerful arrow at that?"

Changxi also widened her beautiful eyes, finding it hard to believe.

They had no objections to calling Hongyun a good person.

Regarding Hongyun's strength, in their impression, he wasn't top-tier in the Great Desolation, but he was decent.

However, the idea that Hongyun could shoot arrows, let alone an arrow that pierced the Lunar Star, was something they couldn't fathom, even if they were beaten to death.

"My apologies again, ladies."

Hongyun expressed his regret once more.

"Impossible!"

"If you truly could shoot such a powerful arrow, we naturally wouldn't blame you, and... cough cough! But if you can't shoot such an arrow, you're just bragging!"

Xihe said, blushing slightly, to Hongyun.

"Precisely, unless you can prove you can truly shoot such a powerful arrow, you're just boasting!"

Changxi echoed, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

As far as they were concerned, no matter how handsome Hongyun was, if he was just bragging and couldn't shoot such a powerful arrow, it wouldn't align with their expectations.

But if Hongyun genuinely could shoot such a powerful arrow, they both blushed, thinking about their earlier argument.

"Ahem, this... do you really want me to shoot another arrow?"

Hongyun asked with a bewildered expression, sounding uncertain.

The arrows he shot now were far more powerful than the one back then at the Witch Clan's territory.

After all, at the Witch Clan's territory, he had used Da Yi's Sun-Shooting Divine Bow.

But now, he had refined his own golden bow and arrow, which was dozens of times more powerful.

If he shot another arrow, he wondered if the Lunar Star could withstand it.

"Yes! We need to see it with our own eyes to believe it!"

"Right, only if you shoot such an arrow in front of us will we believe you!"

Xihe and Changxi, the two divine maidens, spoke one after another.

"Alright!"

Hongyun was not one for unnecessary words.

Swish!

With a wave of his hand, a golden bow and arrow appeared in his grasp.

Immediately, he activated the Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique!

Hum!

A surge of immense power coursed through his arms.

Instantly, his previously ordinary arms doubled in size.

They now resembled the massive arms of a Qilin, with bulging muscles like hard-hewn stones.

"Such powerful arms!"

"My heavens, this is true masculine energy!"

Witnessing this, Xihe and Changxi were stunned, their mouths agape, speechless.

However, their beautiful eyes revealed a mixture of shock and delight.

"Divine maidens, please observe!"

With that, Hongyun drew the golden bow and loosed an arrow.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew into the void and then, from the other side of the Lunar Star, struck the ground.

Rumble!

The moment the arrow hit the ground, the entire Lunar Star trembled, emitting a series of thunderous roars.

The gentle Yin energy of the Lunar Star was stirred by the arrow, erupting into chaos.

"Too... too powerful!"

"Oh no, the Lunar Star can barely withstand it!"

The two divine maidens felt the boundless spiritual energy of the Lunar Star draining away frantically under this arrow, their faces paling.

The power of this arrow far exceeded their expectations.

Compared to the arrow from months ago, its power had increased tenfold!

The arrow from months ago had merely pierced through the entire Lunar Star.

But this current arrow showed signs of the Lunar Star collapsing.

Zip! Zip!

The two Lunar divine maidens quickly flickered and flew towards the Lunar Star's protective formation.

If they didn't activate the protective formation, the Lunar Star might very well disintegrate.

Seeing this, Hongyun pouted, a hint of helplessness in his expression.

"You two asked me to shoot it, and you didn't believe me when I said I was strong!"

Hongyun muttered to himself.

Several days passed.

The two Lunar divine maidens finally managed to protect the nearly collapsing Lunar Star.

As for the damage caused by the arrow, it had created a massive hole through the entire Lunar Star.

One could see directly through from one side to the other.

Countless areas on the surface of the Lunar Star had crumbled, and its spiritual energy had dissipated.

If one had a long enough stick, piercing through the Lunar Star now, it would look like a candied haw on a stick.

The two divine maidens approached Hongyun, their expressions still unsettled.

This single arrow had almost destroyed their Lunar Star; it was truly terrifying.

"Hong... Fellow Daoist Hongyun, I never imagined you could shoot such a powerful arrow!"

Xihe calmed herself and said slowly.

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Hongyun, you are too strong. We misunderstood you before; please don't be angry."

Changxi blinked her eyes, re-examining Hongyun.

The Hongyun they had previously perceived as an easygoing good-natured person in the Great Desolation, perhaps handsome but not overwhelmingly powerful, had completely shattered their perception.

The two divine maidens also felt their hearts stir.

After all, this was a man capable of shooting an arrow through the Lunar Star.

And this was even with them quickly activating the protective formation; otherwise, a single arrow might have caused the Lunar Star to shatter.

What kind of terrifying power is this?

Even a powerful late-stage Quasi-Saint might not be able to achieve this.

"Two goddesses, I hope you won't blame me!"

Hongyun said sheepishly.

After all, his two arrows had caused them considerable damage.

"We don't blame you, not at all. If Fellow Daoist Hongyun doesn't mind, please come to Guanghan Palace for a chat!"

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Hongyun, please come to Guanghan Palace for a drink of light wine."

Xihe and Changxi sincerely invited.

Hearing their words, Hongyun's heart was put at ease.

Since they didn't seem to hold any grudges, and Hongyun also had something to discuss, he followed the two and stepped towards Guanghan Palace.

On the land of the Witch Clan.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"My sons, trample the Witch Clan!"

The countless masses of the Demon Clan surged towards the Witch Clan.

Under the leadership of the Demon Emperor Dijun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and others, countless demons charged forward one after another. Anyway, the Demon Clan was vast in number and not afraid of death.

On the other side.

"Fight!"

"Fight for the Witch Clan!"

"Fight for the Great Desolation!"

"Fight for Father God!"

The members of the Witch Clan were equally filled with fervor. Their massive bodies reaped the lives of the reckless demons as if they were chopping vegetables and melons.

In mid-air.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches had already made their move. Their colossal bodies, each standing at a height of 129,600 zhang, were like twelve enormous moving mountain peaks.
