[The Blood Sea's upheaval was temporarily suppressed. Houtu flew to its center, and her Great Vow left her lips.
"I vow to use this body as the foundation of Reincarnation, to shelter the Yin Spirits of the Prehistoric World, establish the Six Paths, set Order, and complete the Cycle of Life and Death!"
Heaven and earth trembled as earth-yellow Earthly Dao Merit gathered above the Blood Sea into a sea of light.
Houtu began to glow, her entire body turning translucent.
Di Jiang rushed forward, trying to pull her back, but Houtu shook her head.
"Eldest Brother, this is my Dao, and also my responsibility."
Di Jiang shouted, "Why should my sister bear this alone?" The Eleven Ancestral Witches stepped forward at once, their surging blood and qi pouring into Houtu's body.
Zhu Rong's fire, Gong Gong's water, Ju Mang's wood, Xuan Ming's ice... their insights into their respective Laws poured into her as if they cost nothing.
Among the Wu Race army below, Jiang You was the first to drop to one knee and pound his chest. "We are willing to aid the Ancestral Witches!"
Tens of thousands of streams of blood and qi converged into a torrent.
The Blood Sea cleared from its center, its filth settling to the bottom and revealing the outline of Netherworld Land.
Seeing the hundreds of millions of Asura corpses floating upon the Blood Sea, Houtu felt pity for them. She left them A Glimmer of Life within the Six Paths and established the Asura Path.
The Reincarnation Disk descended and embedded itself in the Blood Sea Core, while Netherworld Land spread outward.
Earthly Dao Merit poured down. Seventy percent entered Houtu's body, and her Nascent Soul grew wildly, breaking past the threshold and making her the Prehistoric World's first Earthly Dao Saint.
