Tongtian: "Hahahaha! Group leader, you're quite the jokester! Many thanks to all the fellow Daoists for yielding to me and letting me take first place!"
Everyone was filled with regret. The question was so simple, yet none of them had managed to answer first!
Kunpeng: "Fellow Daoist Tongtian, you should be careful. Questions often catch you off guard. They may seem simple, but there's usually a twist."
Tongtian replied proudly, "Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng. But I'm afraid you're all going to be disappointed. I spotted the trick in this question at a glance."
Houtu: "Oh? You sound so certain, Fellow Daoist. Does that mean you're absolutely sure?"
Haotian: "Wait, did I miss something? My heart aches! I feel like I've missed out on a hundred spiritual treasures!"
Tongtian explained smugly, "Of course. Based on the usual pattern of these questions, I spotted the clue long ago! Group leader, I'm going to analyze it now. Fellow Daoists, don't interrupt me; let me finish."
"On the surface, the current demon race is incredibly powerful, so they're sure to win! But it can't be that simple, so we should reverse it: the demon race loses, and the Witch Race wins!"
"But could it really be that simple? Surely the group leader can predict my choice!"
"But I've already predicted the group leader's prediction of my choice!"
"So! I already know the answer to this question!"
Hong Yun was thoroughly confused, feeling as if he were lost in the clouds. "Fellow Daoist, I truly don't understand a word of that explanation!"
Haotian: "Senior Brother Tongtian, hurry up and answer!"
Tongtian: "I'll wager my Green Ping Sword. My answer is that the demon race wins!"
Qin Feng: "???"
Houtu immediately grew displeased. "You went on and on, and after all that, that's the answer you came up with?"
Di Jun: "Fellow Daoist Tongtian truly is a remarkable man!"
Taiyi: "As expected of a true heir of Pangu!"
Houtu: "??? Pah! The Ancestral Witches are the true heirs of Pangu. What are the Three Pure Ones, anyway?"
Tongtian: "I won't argue with a woman."
Haotian: "Ahem! Allow me to say something fair. The demon race does have the advantage!"
"Think about it, everyone. The demon race has three hundred and sixty-five demon saints, each overseeing a celestial star, the sun and moon, and their cycles. It also has ten great demon gods commanding the myriad races of the Primordial World!"
"The Witch Race has nothing but numerous Great Witches and twelve Ancestral Witches. How could they possibly stand against the demon race?"
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian really got lucky with this question. Houtu, don't be angry!"
Nuwa sighed. "Little Sister Houtu, accept the truth."
Zhunti: "Although I can't stand the demon race's arrogant manner, they do have a better chance of winning!"
Houtu snorted. "Why are you all so quick to judge? The group leader hasn't revealed the answer yet!"
[Incorrect answer!]
The system's icy notification left Tongtian, on Kunlun Mountain, completely dumbfounded!
He shook his head again and again, unable to believe it.
Tongtian: "I clearly predicted the group leader's prediction of my choice! How could I still be wrong?"
Qin Feng: "Sorry, but I also predicted your prediction of my prediction of your prediction!"
Di Jun and Taiyi were inside the Heavenly Court, both astonished.
Could the demon race actually lose to the Witch Race?
How was that possible?!
The other powerful beings in the group found it even harder to believe.
Houtu laughed so hard in the Witch Race that she swayed like a flower in the breeze. "Believe it or not, I do. Wise and mighty group leader, would you like to come live with the Witch Race as a son-in-law?"
Qin Feng: "Are you asking to marry me?"
Houtu: "Pah! I'll decide that Jiu Feng should marry you!"
Taiyi: "Group leader, please explain why the demon race will lose."
Qin Feng: "??? Aren't you curious about why the demon and Witch Races will go to war?"
Di Jun: "Hmph! Everyone in the Primordial World knows that my demon race and the Witch Race are bound to fight sooner or later! But my demon race will never lose!"
Taiyi: "Exactly. Has anyone noticed that all the group leader's questions are about things we don't know yet? He gets to decide what's right and wrong!"
Kunpeng: "Exactly. How can that convince anyone? Doesn't the group leader intend to explain?"
Qin Feng was no longer a newcomer to the Primordial World. By now, he had gradually learned about the various people and events there.
Some of it came from their conversations, and some from asking the system repeatedly.
He knew the ins and outs of the ten powerful beings in the group especially well.
Qin Feng replied coldly, "I won't offer any explanations!"
"But I have a few words of advice for you all: Hong Yun, it's dark out, the roads are slippery, and people's hearts are treacherous. Be careful when you go out!"
Hong Yun: "???"
"Kunpeng: The world is vast, and you can roam wherever you please, but in the end, you'll still end up selling yourself into servitude!"
Kunpeng: "What a load of nonsense!"
"East Prince Gong: You're triumphant and invincible, but in the end, you'll be a lonely soul with no home!"
East Prince Gong: "Hmph! As the leader of the male immortals, the entire Primordial World is my home!"
Qin Feng rattled off the various dangers that many powerful beings would face in the future.
But he didn't spell anything out; he only offered a hint.
Of course, even if he had explained it all, those powerful beings might not have believed him.
So whether they lived or died was fate, and wealth and rank were up to heaven!
[Incorrect answer! Green Ping Sword and Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram forfeited!]
Gasp!
Everyone was stunned!
Once the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram reached perfection, it could not be broken by fewer than four Saints!
Even the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram had been forfeited?
Wouldn't Tongtian's Immortal Slaying Sword and his three other immortal swords be useless now?
Tongtian: "Fellow Daoists, there's no need to panic. My Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram is really just a formation. It can only be activated using the immense power of the Four Immortal Slaying Swords."
Haotian: "I see. Even if someone else learned it, they couldn't form the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram without four top-tier flying swords that work in harmony and are comparable to Innate Supreme Treasures!"
Tongtian: "Clever! But I'm still not convinced. Why was my answer wrong?"
[Attention, everyone. The scene will only play once. Recording and copying are prohibited!]
Before the others could recover, scenes suddenly began playing on the chat panels in front of them.
The scene showed a vast, boundless void.
In the next instant, twelve terrifying auras erupted.
Twelve giants, each tens of thousands of zhang tall, unleashed essence qi that surged across the entire Primordial World like wolf smoke!
Houtu cried out, "The Great Formation of the Heavenly Gods and Fiends!"
Everyone: "???"
Houtu: "This isn't much of a secret. When the twelve Ancestral Witches of my Witch Race deploy the Great Formation of the Heavenly Gods and Fiends, their combined power at the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm is enough to summon the phantom of Father God Pangu!"
"Their strength rivals that of a Saint at the very peak!"
Gasp!
Everyone was shaken once more. No wonder the Witch Race was so fearless—they had such a deadly weapon!
Di Jun: "Just watch how my demon race responds!"
In the next instant, the scene shifted, and the stars of the heavens began to sparkle.
Taiyi and Di Jun stood in the endless starry sky, surrounded by three hundred and sixty-five powerful demon gods.
Taiyi declared proudly, "This is the Grand Formation of Myriad Stars! With Di Jun and me at its core, three hundred and sixty-five Grand Unity Golden Immortals draw on the power of the stars together!"
"Its battle prowess can slay a Saint!"
What? So powerful!
No wonder the demon and Witch Races were now the protagonists of heaven and earth. Not only were they each extraordinarily powerful, they also possessed numerous terrifying weapons beyond anyone's imagination.
In the scene, the two great formations finally clashed.
Heaven and earth roared. The Primordial World was devastated!
Endless storms swept through. The starry sky collapsed, and space and time fell into chaos!
For a moment, it was like an apocalyptic calamity. No one could tell who would emerge victorious.
