Primordial World!
Below Buzhou Mountain!
Witch Clan tribe!
The Primordial World only knew that the Witch Clan had Twelve Ancestor Witches, who established twelve tribes and led hundreds of millions of Witch Clan members.
But they didn't know that besides the Twelve Ancestor Witches like Dijiang, the Witch Clan had another Ancestor Witch.
Xuanyuan, an ordinary Blue Star human, died and transmigrated to the Primordial World, bound to a God-tier Sign-in System, and became the thirteenth Ancestor Witch of the Witch Clan.
Unlike the other twelve Ancestor Witches, he didn't establish a tribe or lead the Witch Clan. Instead, he lived a low-key life alone on Qianyuan Mountain.
Qianyuan Mountain was an unnamed peak a thousand miles east of the Pangu Temple.
The entire peak was covered by a Chaos Guardian Array, capable of blocking Saint attacks and probes. This was the reward Xuanyuan received from his first sign-in.
The spiritual qi within the peak was dense, more than ten times richer than that of immortal mountains and blessed lands like Kunlun, Guixu, and Leize.
Crucially, the spiritual qi on Qianyuan Mountain was not ordinary; it was entirely Innate Spiritual Qi.
Some of this Innate Spiritual Qi was converted by the Chaos Guardian Array, but most of it came from Xuanyuan's sign-in rewards.
Since Pangu's Creation, Innate Spiritual Qi had gradually disappeared. If other beings in the Primordial World knew about the abundance of Innate Spiritual Qi here, they would likely be insanely jealous and envious.
Of course, only Dijiang and the other eleven Ancestor Witches knew the inside story.
Without Xuanyuan's permission, no other beings could set foot on Qianyuan Mountain.
At this moment, outside Qianyuan Palace, Xuanyuan leaned back in a lounge chair, eyes closed, his right index finger lightly tapping the armrest, leisurely and content.
"System, sign in!"
Xuanyuan murmured.
[Ding, Sign-in initiated. Congratulations to the host for signing in for one million years, obtaining ten billion Great Dao Merit!]
"Has it really been a million years since I transmigrated to the Primordial World?"
Xuanyuan opened his eyes, stood up from the lounge chair, and gazed into the distance with a hint of emotion.
The Primordial World does not keep track of years; a million years had passed in the blink of an eye.
"Time really flies!"
Xuanyuan sighed again, looked up at the sky, and saw an incredibly thick golden pillar of light descending from the sky, entering his body. It was warm and comfortable.
"Awesome!"
He couldn't help but groan, quickly sat down cross-legged, and began to absorb the Great Dao Merit.
Merit could be used to improve one's cultivation, as well as the level of magical treasures and spiritual roots. It was a versatile resource in the Primordial World.
It held immense appeal for beings in the Primordial World.
No being would complain about having too much merit.
However, obtaining merit usually required making significant contributions to the Primordial World or pioneering something new; otherwise, it was simply out of the question.
Furthermore, the current Primordial World saw the Great Dao recede and the Heavenly Dao manifest.
Even if merit was obtained, it would be Heavenly Dao merit, incomparable to Great Dao Merit.
The Great Dao is impartial, while the Heavenly Dao is biased.
The merit bestowed by the Heavenly Dao was not easy to bear.
Unlike Xuanyuan, who could casually obtain ten billion Great Dao Merit just by signing in.
Wasn't that infuriating!
The moment the Great Dao Merit descended, Hongjun, who was meditating in Zixiao Palace, sensed something. He abruptly opened his eyes and began to deduce using his fingers.
After a while, Hongjun stopped, his brow furrowed.
"Strange, who exactly is it that can cause Great Dao Merit to descend, and even I cannot deduce it?"
Hongjun frowned, sighed softly, and felt a headache coming on.
It seemed a variable had occurred in the unseen, and even the future of the Primordial World was no longer clear, becoming unpredictable.
In the Chaos Void outside the Primordial World, Yang Mei looked towards the Primordial World, stroked his beard, and chuckled with envy.
"The Great Dao has fifty, the Heavenly Dao evolves forty-nine, leaving one to escape. Variables are good!"
Qianyuan Mountain!
The Great Dao Merit entered Xuanyuan's body, forming a radiant golden Merit Disc behind his head.
It shone like a round sun, dazzling!
"This is a protective charm!"
"When the Merit Disc shines, who would dare to make a move?"
A smile tugged at Xuanyuan's lips, and his mood soared.
The current Primordial World had just concluded the Dao-Demon Conflict. Hongjun had become a Saint and sent a message throughout the Primordial World, announcing that he would preach in Zixiao Palace in a thousand years, and all those with predestined affinity could attend.
After experiencing the Fierce Beast Tribulation, Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation, and Dao-Demon Conflict, the early Primordial World was left with hardly any powerful figures.
Only Hongjun, Yang Mei, and a very small number of hidden powerhouses remained.
A significant gap in strength emerged.
Figures like Sanqing, Nuwa, Dijun, Donghuang Taiyi, and the Ancestor Witches such as Dijiang were at most at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
The Daluo Golden Immortal level was almost nonexistent.
The era where Daluo Golden Immortals were as common as dogs and Quasi-Saints roamed everywhere would only arrive after Hongjun's preaching.
Meanwhile, Xuanyuan, through the System's sign-in function, had long ago reached the early Daluo Golden Immortal stage. Now, with billions of Great Dao Merit by his side, he felt completely secure.
"It's great having a System!"
Xuanyuan sighed softly.
After transmigrating to the Primordial World, Xuanyuan had bound himself to a sign-in System.
Each time he signed in, he would receive cultivation, techniques, spiritual treasures, spirit roots, and other valuable items.
Anything that existed in the Primordial World, the System could produce for Xuanyuan.
Even things that didn't exist in the Primordial World could be obtained through sign-ins.
Xuanyuan leaned back comfortably in his lounge chair, a smile filling his face, feeling utterly at ease.
"I've been in the Primordial World for a million years, it's time for a proper celebration!"
Xuanyuan thought, then sent a telepathic message to Dijiang, asking him to bring the other Ancestor Witches over for a gathering.
Afterward, he got up and began preparations.
"Entertaining my own brothers and sisters, I can't be stingy. Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow are a must!"
"I remember the System rewarded a pair of Daluo Golden Immortal level Kunpeng wings from a sign-in, let's use those!"
"And more Daluo Golden Immortal level beast meat, to help Dijiang and the others temper their physical bodies."
"A feast isn't complete without wine, what good is meat without it? Maozi is essential!"
"And Huazi too!"
Maozi and Huazi were System sign-in rewards.
Maozi was brewed from Spirit Veins; a bottle of Maozi was equivalent to a top-grade Spirit Vein, containing immense energy that could help the Witch Clan temper their bodies.
Huazi was also not made from ordinary tobacco leaves, but from top-grade Innate Dao Comprehension Tree leaves. It refreshed the mind and could effectively suppress the Witch Clan's violent and impulsive nature.
In addition to these, Xuanyuan prepared a few vegetarian dishes, the lowest being Houtian Spirit Roots.
Then, he picked some spiritual fruits: top-grade Innate Spirit Root Yellow Middle Plum, top-grade Innate Ren Water Peaches, and top-grade Innate Ginseng Fruit.
"Oh right, Houtu and Xuanming, those two girls like to drink beverages!"
Xuanyuan busied himself, preparing a table full of fine wine and delicacies.
Nodding with satisfaction, he walked out of Qianyuan Palace and into the open space outside, waiting for Dijiang and the others to arrive.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Moments later, sounds of breaking through the air echoed.
The first to arrive was Dijiang. As the leader of the Ancestor Witches, he naturally mastered the Space Law, making his speed the fastest in the Primordial World.
Following Dijiang were Qiangliang, Yanzi, and Tianwu, who respectively mastered the Laws of Thunder, Lightning, and Wind, their speed also being extremely fast.
After them came the four Ancestor Witches Zhujiuyin, Rushou, Goumang, and Shebishi, arriving together.
The two female Ancestor Witches, Houtu and Xuanming, arrived arm in arm, looking graceful and beautiful, chatting and laughing.
Lastly came Zhurong and Gonggong.
It wasn't that their strength was lacking, but rather that these two were natural rivals, incompatible like water and fire. They were still bickering on their way, which caused them to arrive last.
