Fierce Battle

Below Buzhou Mountain.

Nearly a hundred Great Witches surrounded the remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin, fiercely blocking the path to their tribe. Each of them was heavily wounded, yet not a single one retreated a step.

Behind them lay the Witch Clan tribe, home to hundreds of millions of Witch Clan members.

If they were to fall back, the Witch Clan would surely suffer heavy casualties.

"Old buddies, can we still fight?"

Chi You, a burly man with bulging muscles, shouted loudly, his spirit soaring. The massive wound on his chest seemed nonexistent.

As one of the top three strongest Great Witches of the Witch Clan, and with the Ancestor Witches and the foremost Great Witch, Jiu Feng, absent, he had naturally taken command.

"Of course, we can fight!"

The Great Witches echoed his cry in unison.

No matter how severe their injuries, they spoke and laughed as if unaffected.

Kuafu heavily patted his chest and said with a laugh, "Chi You, don't look down on us. We can still take at least three more hits!"

"I can take two more!"

"Our strength isn't as good as yours, but we can still take one blow!"

The Great Witches didn't state how much combat power they had left, but rather how many more attacks from the remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin they could withstand.

From the rear of the crowd, Hou Yi, holding a giant red bow, looked sorrowful, tears streaming down his face. He was the only Great Witch among them who was uninjured and whose combat power was the most intact.

Compared to the tall and robust bodies of the other Great Witches, Hou Yi appeared quite short, with no advantage in strength or physical resilience.

However, he was the one with the strongest offensive power among all the Great Witches.

Naturally, the task of attacking the remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin primarily fell to him.

Hou Yi let his tears fall, murmuring incessantly, "Give me one more chance, and I'll surely be able to slay it!"

Behind the Great Witches, countless Witch Clan members, like ants trying to shake a tree, continuously attacked the remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin.

However, their strength was too weak; they couldn't even break through its defenses, rendering them useless to the situation.

But no one paid them any mind.

They didn't even have time for grief. Everyone was more resolute than ever, with a single thought in their hearts: kill the enemy, protect the tribe.

At this moment, the Witch Clan was united as never before.

"Heh heh heh!"

The remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin let out a sinister, cold laugh. Facing a swarm of ants, its already dwindling patience was completely worn out. "Ants, feel the pain! It's only because you are descendants of Pangu that you must all die!"

It brought its giant axe down with a mighty chop. A terrifying attack, imbued with the Great Dao of Ruin, descended towards the Witch Clan members. Its late-stage Daluo Golden Immortal power was displayed to its fullest. Before the attack even landed, the void began to tremble, seemingly unable to bear the pressure and on the verge of collapse at any moment.

Facing such a terrifying attack, Chi You's pupils contracted sharply, but his expression remained unchanged. He roared with laughter and charged forward, "Still a Chaos Demon God? Nothing more than this!"

"Chi You, damn it, stop hogging! It's our turn this time!" Kuafu cursed and charged forward as well.

"And us!"

"Charge!"

All the Great Witches, including Hou Yi, charged into the fray.

They all knew clearly in their hearts that if they couldn't withstand this attack, countless tribesmen would perish.

However, the Great Witches were all heavily wounded. Once the attack landed, who knew how many would die.

Below, hundreds of millions of Witch Clan members were filled with righteous indignation, sorrowful and helpless.

"Damn it, we're doomed!"

"Where are the Ancestor Witches? Where are our Ancestor Witches?"

"Are our Witch Clan going to be wiped out today?"

At this critical juncture, a spatial vortex suddenly appeared in the sky.

A golden light flew out from the spatial vortex, growing larger as it flew, instantly transforming into a massive scroll depicting a yin-yang fish.

It blocked the attack above Chi You, Kuafu, and the other Great Witches.

BOOM!

The attack from the remnant spirit of the Chaos Demon God of Ruin landed, striking the scroll with a deafening roar before vanishing without a trace.

"A top-grade Innate Supreme Treasure, the Taiji Diagram!"

"Which powerful being has intervened to aid our Witch Clan?"

Chi You, Kuafu, and the other Great Witches, having narrowly escaped death, looked up at the giant Taiji Diagram above them, panting heavily, feeling as though they had survived a great calamity.

Below, hundreds of millions of Witch Clan members looked up with anticipation, wanting to see which powerful being had stepped in at the crucial moment to help their Witch Clan.

Then, in the sky, two figures stepped out from the spatial vortex.

One was a handsome young man in a purple Daoist robe, and the other was a tall middle-aged man wrapped in animal skins.

"It's Great Witch Fei Lian!"

"Who is that person next to Great Witch Fei Lian?"

"I don't know, I've never seen him before. He must be a helper Great Witch Fei Lian invited!"

"That's great, the Witch Clan is saved!"

Billions of the Witch Clan were incredibly excited, kneeling on the ground.

The Witch Clan did not disrespect heaven or worship earth; they only revered Pangu, the Father God.

At this moment, they were kneeling and worshipping a stranger they had never seen before.

This showed how grateful they were in their hearts.

Little did they know that the stranger they were grateful for and worshipped was actually an Ancestor Witch of the Witch Clan.

Xuanyuan, with Great Witch Fei Lian, entered the spatial tunnel, crossing tens of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.

However, before he could even exit the spatial tunnel, he sensed the immense danger faced by Great Witches Chi You, Kuafu, and the others. He could only throw the peak-grade innate supreme treasure, the Taiji Diagram, out of the spatial tunnel to help the Great Witches block the full-power strike from the remnant soul of the Chaos Demon God of Destruction.

As a peak-grade innate supreme treasure, the Taiji Diagram possessed unparalleled defense. Even though the attack from the remnant soul of the Chaos Demon God of Destruction carried the Great Dao laws of destruction, it could not stir the slightest ripple against the Taiji Diagram.

"Whoosh!"

Beside Xuanyuan, Great Witch Fei Lian let out a long sigh, secretly feeling fortunate that they had arrived in time during the critical moment.

He looked at Xuanyuan, filled with shock and admiration.

This Ancestor Witch was usually very low-key, rarely appearing among the Witch Clan. In fact, most of the clan members didn't even know that such an Ancestor Witch existed within the Witch Clan.

His trip to Qianyuan Mountain was not to ask Xuanyuan to take action, but rather to try his luck and see if Ancestor Witches Dijiang and the others were with Xuanyuan.

Or if Xuanyuan knew the whereabouts of Ancestor Witches Dijiang and the others.

He never expected that Ancestor Witch Xuanyuan's strength would be so formidable, and that he had broken through the Witch Clan's limitations to use magical treasures, and such a peak-grade innate supreme treasure as the Taiji Diagram at that.

The Witch Clan, lacking primordial spirits, could not use magical treasures, so he had never paid attention to them. However, he was aware of the great fame of the Taiji Diagram.

According to legend, the Taiji Diagram was formed from the Pangu Axe used by Pangu, the Father God, when he created the heavens and earth. It possessed unparalleled defense, and by holding it above one's head, one was innately in an invincible position.

With the Taiji Diagram, this supreme treasure, Ancestor Witch Xuanyuan could protect the Witch Clan even if he was no match for the remnant soul of the Chaos Demon God of Destruction.

With this buffer time, he could then confidently search for Ancestor Witches Dijiang and the others.

Xuanyuan was unaware of Fei Lian's thoughts.

He lowered his head, looking down at the remnant soul of the Chaos Demon God of Destruction, and sneered dismissively, "A mere remnant soul of a Chaos Demon God, already slain by Pangu, the Father God, back then. How dare you cause trouble for our Witch Clan? You're simply asking for death."

The remnant soul of the Chaos Demon God of Destruction's huge pupils flickered with scarlet light as it stared directly at Xuanyuan, roaring in anger, "You possess an aura that makes me detest you, a thousand, ten thousand times stronger than these ants. Descendants of Pangu all deserve to die!"
