Thinking of this, Xuanyuan felt grief and despair.
"Many days have passed. Why hasn't Master returned from Kunlun Mountain?"
"If the Witch Clan army attacks again, we won't be able to hold them off!"
As he spoke, Xuanyuan turned his gaze toward Kunlun Mountain.
At this point, he had no choice but to place all his hopes in his master, Guangchengzi.
While the Human Race and the Witch Clan continued to wage war across the Primordial Land,
the Primordial Heavenly Realm was peaceful.
Earlier, Emperor Venerate had visited Penglai Immortal Island and selected many disciples from the Interception Sect to take up posts in the Heavenly Court.
Afterward, rather than rushing back to the Heavenly Court, he made his way to West Kunlun.
By presenting a strand of Primordial Violet Qi, he had successfully persuaded Queen Mother of the West to join the Heavenly Court.
Not long after Emperor Venerate returned, Queen Mother of the West led her Yaochi lineage to the Heavenly Realm.
Emperor Venerate had already prepared the Yaochi Heavenly Domain for her lineage to live in.
After arriving at the Heavenly Court, Queen Mother of the West moved the very source of West Kunlun into the Yaochi Heavenly Domain.
At the same time, Emperor Venerate used his immense power to create a Peach Garden, planting 3,600 Flat Peach trees within it.
Of those, 1,200 trees bore fruit once every 3,000 years. Anyone who ate their peaches could become an immortal and attain the Dao.
Another 1,200 bore fruit once every 6,000 years. Anyone who ate their peaches could ascend on rosy clouds and enjoy eternal life.
The final 1,200 bore fruit once every 9,000 years. Anyone who ate their peaches would live as long as Heaven and Earth, and as long as the sun and moon.
