Every Ancestral Witch took a step forward, making the earth tremble.
At the same time, Demon Emperor Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi on the opposite side were unwilling to show weakness.
Hum!
Eastern Emperor Taiyi activated the Innate Supreme Treasure, Eastern Emperor Bell, attacking the Twelve Ancestral Witches incessantly.
Although this was an Innate Supreme Treasure, the Eastern Emperor Bell was not skilled at attacking. Its strength lay in defense.
Thus, every attack against the Twelve Ancestral Witches was sent flying by a punch from Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, Gonggong, Zhurong, and the other Ancestral Witches who had reached the early Quasi-Saint stage.
Even so, the other Ancestral Witches at the peak of the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm still did not dare to take the Eastern Emperor Bell head-on.
The fact that even peak Great Unity Golden Immortal Ancestral Witches dared not resist it with their physical bodies showed that although the Eastern Emperor Bell was not skilled at attacking, it truly lived up to its reputation as a supreme treasure.
On the other side, Demon Emperor Dijun was also thoroughly enjoying the battle.
He was fighting Ancestral Witch Zhurong.
Zhurong was likewise at the early Quasi-Saint stage, just like Demon Emperor Dijun. However, Zhurong specialized in physical combat, yet he was actually being forced into a disadvantage.
"Worthy of being the Demon Emperor. His combat strength is terrifying!"
Seeing this scene, Ancestral Witch Zhu Jiuyin thought to himself.
Against an ordinary early-stage Quasi-Saint, how could he possibly defeat an Ancestral Witch of the same cultivation level?
One had to know that the Witch Clan was a race that fought against Heaven and Earth. They were naturally belligerent and skilled in battle.
Among cultivators of the same realm, the Witch Clan were the strong ones.
Zhu Jiuyin then joined the battle against Demon Emperor Dijun.
With two early-stage Quasi-Saint Ancestral Witches fighting Demon Emperor Dijun, Dijun immediately appeared to be struggling on both sides.
Likewise, Demon Master Kunpeng and Fuxi were also surrounded by two or more Ancestral Witches.
They were nowhere near as powerful as Demon Emperor Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
Under the Ancestral Witches' attacks, they were already in a sorry state and might even be defeated at any moment.
"Second Brother, deploy the formation!"
At this moment, Demon Emperor Dijun saw that they were at a disadvantage and immediately looked toward Eastern Emperor Taiyi, shouting.
The trump card they had brought to the Witch Clan was not merely the Eastern Emperor Bell in Eastern Emperor Taiyi's hands.
It was... the Star Array of the Heavens.
Once the Star Array of the Heavens was deployed, the Demon Clan could absolutely turn the tide. They might even crush the Twelve Ancestral Witches and slay them.
"Very well, Big Brother!"
Hearing Dijun's words, Eastern Emperor Taiyi nodded as well.
Dijun, Taiyi, Kunpeng, and Fuxi then began to gather together.
After all, Eastern Emperor Taiyi needed some time to activate the Star Array of the Heavens, and no one could disturb him.
During this period, Dijun, Kunpeng, and Fuxi had to protect him.
Of course, Eastern Emperor Taiyi would also raise the Eastern Emperor Bell to protect himself.
With Eastern Emperor Taiyi's current level of refinement of the Eastern Emperor Bell, once he activated it for defense, the Twelve Ancestral Witches would absolutely be unable to break through it with their physical bodies.
"Activate!"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi roared, and the two Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in his hands flew out.
They were none other than the River Map and Luo Book.
As the River Map and Luo Book, the formation cores of the Star Array of the Heavens, were brought out, all the stars in the entire starry sky began to move slowly.
The three hundred and sixty-five main stars began revolving around the Solar Star and Lunar Star.
The other fourteen thousand eight hundred minor stars also moved along certain fixed trajectories under the guidance of the main stars.
"Big Brother, the Demon Clan is deploying a formation!"
Seeing this, a solemn look flashed through Zhu Jiuyin's eyes.
"It looks like their formation is quite powerful!"
Gonggong also said worriedly.
The power of the stars throughout the heavens was being drawn by the entire formation. It was easy to imagine how vast a force this was.
"What is there to fear? We have a great formation too!"
Ancestral Witch Dijiang shouted, then said again, "Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array, activate!"
"Yes, Big Brother!"
"Activate the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array!"
At this moment, all twelve Ancestral Witches brought out the Pangu's Essence Blood within their bodies. Terrifying, overwhelming baleful energy radiated from each of them.
The Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array was an inheritance passed down by Great God Pangu.
It could not be deployed without all twelve Ancestral Witches gathered together.
Once activated, it could transform into Pangu's true body, whose strength directly approached the Saint realm.
Rumble!
As the Twelve Ancestral Witches activated the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array, a phantom wielding the Pangu Axe soon began to solidify.
"What? This... what kind of formation is this? How can it be so terrifying?"
"Could this be Great God Pangu?"
Seeing that terrifying phantom, Dijun and Taiyi were both stunned.
They had originally thought that the Witch Clan had no hidden trump cards. They had never expected the Twelve Ancestral Witches to be capable of deploying such a terrifying formation.
However...
The two of them were surprised for only an instant.
They soon discovered that the phantom condensed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches was far too inferior to Great God Pangu.
Great God Pangu was the supreme existence who had opened up the Great Desolation.
If the Twelve Ancestral Witches could truly summon Great God Pangu, the Demon Clan would have no need to fight. They would simply surrender.
"Star Array of the Heavens! Rise!"
At the same time, Eastern Emperor Taiyi also activated the Star Array of the Heavens. With a furious roar, he sent it crashing toward the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Likewise, the enormous Pangu's true body wielded its giant axe and hacked toward the Star Array of the Heavens.
Rumble!
For a time, endless, terrifying sounds of battle spread throughout the entire Great Desolation.
The void above the Witch Clan's territory was torn apart again and again.
The battle between the two sides reached a stalemate, almost shattering the entire Great Desolation.
At this moment, on the Lunar Star.
Hong Yun naturally sensed countless stars flying around the Lunar Star.
"Is this the Star Array of the Heavens?"
Hong Yun thought to himself.
He knew that the Star Array of the Heavens took the Solar Star and Lunar Star as its cores.
Now that countless stars were circling the Lunar Star, there were presumably countless stars circling the Solar Star as well.
But then again...
"Two Goddesses, would you like to see the might of my archery again?"
Hong Yun raised the fine wine in his hand, drained it in one gulp, and said to the two Lunar Goddesses.
"Daoist Hong Yun, that would be wonderful! I want to see it, I want to see it!"
Changxi clapped her hands excitedly when she heard Hong Yun's words.
"I want to see it too, but our Lunar Star cannot withstand your divine arrows!"
Xihe sounded somewhat worried, but her eyes could not conceal her anticipation.
After all, the masculine energy Hong Yun displayed when shooting arrows was simply far too alluring to the two Lunar Goddesses.
"Neither Goddess needs to worry. This time, I will shoot at the Solar Star!"
Hong Yun spoke calmly.
"That is wonderful! Daoist Hong Yun, quickly show us your miraculous archery technique!"
"Daoist Hong Yun, your archery is so powerful. Even if I watched it a hundred or ten thousand times, I still would not have enough!"
The two Lunar Goddesses smiled.
As long as he was not shooting at their Lunar Star, being able to watch Hong Yun shoot arrows was practically a form of enjoyment for Changxi and Xihe.
Soon, the three of them arrived outside Guanghan Palace.
Standing on the Lunar Star, Hong Yun focused his vision and looked into the distance.
He saw countless stars moving throughout the entire starry sky of the Great Desolation. It seemed things were just as he had imagined.
"If I draw out the spiritual energy on the Solar Star and prevent the Star Array of the Heavens from operating normally, then Dijun and the others of the Demon Clan will certainly be beaten up by the Twelve Ancestral Witches!"
Hong Yun thought to himself.
In this way, he would have sabotaged the Demon Clan once.
However, he also knew that this was only the second battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan. It was fundamentally impossible for the Demon Clan to be destroyed.
If things truly became unbearable, Dao Ancestor Hongjun would probably intervene.
After all, Hongjun was currently the Spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao. In accordance with the will of the Heavenly Dao, it was impossible for one of the races to be destroyed right now.
Instead, both races were supposed to perish together during the third great battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan.
Whoosh!
Hong Yun brought out the Golden Bow and Arrow.
Then, the aura around his entire body suddenly erupted as he unleashed the Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique.
The muscles in both his arms knotted and swelled, instantly doubling in size.
"What powerful masculine energy!"
"This is a true man!"
When Xihe and Changxi saw this scene, their eyes sparkled.
The two of them were Lunar Goddesses, born from yin energy.
They instinctively yearned for masculine energy.
Once yin and yang fused in accordance with the laws of Heaven and Earth, they would be able to comprehend the supreme Great Dao.
However, Hong Yun paid no attention to the two women crying out behind him.
Instead, he nocked an arrow on the Golden Bow and shot it.
Whoosh!
This time, Hong Yun drew the Golden Bow to its limit, bringing out the full might of this Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
At the same time, he also unleashed the Mythical Great Sky Archery Technique to perfection.
In an instant, the golden arrow was like a dazzling beam of light. It streaked across the starry sky, forming a flawless line as it shot toward the Solar Star.
On the Witch Clan's land.
The Pangu's true body formed by the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array was engaged in a fierce battle with Dijun, Taiyi, and the others, who were empowered by the Star Array of the Heavens.
"Hahaha, Twelve Ancestral Witches, although your Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array is powerful, it is still no match for my Star Array of the Heavens!"
Dijun looked toward the Twelve Ancestral Witches, excitement flashing in his eyes.
The Star Array of the Heavens truly lived up to its reputation. Eastern Emperor Taiyi had comprehended the entire starry sky of the Great Desolation before creating it, and it was incredibly powerful.
At present, Pangu's true body possessed more defensive strength than offensive strength.
In fact, the footsteps of Pangu's true body had already begun retreating step by step during the battle.
"Twelve Ancestral Witches, today my Demon Clan will trample the Witch Clan beneath our feet! The corpses of you twelve will also become the foundation of my Demon Clan's struggle for supremacy over the Great Desolation!"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi also spoke loudly, his tone filled with unrestrained arrogance.
"Damn it!"
Hearing Dijun and Taiyi's words, Ancestral Witch Dijiang roared furiously.
"Big Brother, if we had not yet fully comprehended our Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array, how could we possibly be suppressed by the Demon Clan's Star Array of the Heavens?"
Zhu Jiuyin also spoke resentfully.
"That is right. The Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array we inherited from Father God's bloodline is definitely stronger than their formation! It is only that we can currently display the might of its minor mastery. If we could display its full mastery, how could we allow two vile birds to shout here?"
Ancestral Witch Zhurong was also unwilling to accept this.
The cultivation levels of the twelve Ancestral Witches were currently different. Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, Gonggong, Zhurong, and Houtu had reached the early Quasi-Saint stage.
Qiangliang, Xuanming, Yuezi, and the other Ancestral Witches were only at the peak of the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm.
Thus, they could not perfectly deploy the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array and could only display its minor mastery.
Once the other Ancestral Witches also reached the Quasi-Saint realm, the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array they deployed would at least possess the might of full mastery.
It might even reach perfect mastery.
Once the Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array was deployed perfectly, they could resist even a Saint to some extent.
The small Star Array of the Heavens of the Demon Clan was even less worth mentioning.
But now...
They had fallen into a disadvantage, and there was nothing they could do.
This was infuriating!
The Twelve Ancestral Witches had always been people who fought against Heaven and Earth. When had they ever been afraid?
"Fight!"
"Never surrender!"
"Swear to destroy the Demon Clan!"
The terrifying auras around the Twelve Ancestral Witches all surged, and they pushed Pangu's Essence Blood to its limit.
Their enormous bodies, each reaching a height of one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred zhang, erupted with even greater force.
The Pangu's true body they had manifested also seemed to grow enraged. The Pangu Axe in its hands swung back and forth, and every strike split the void apart.
Roar!
The battle instantly reached its climax.
However, with the empowerment of the Star Array of the Heavens, Dijun and Taiyi also had the Eastern Emperor Bell, an Innate Supreme Treasure, defending them. Not only did the Twelve Ancestral Witches fail to break through their formation, they were even suppressed once more.
