[The Witch and Demon Races have begun making contact at close range, and war is rising. Would you like to watch?]

The system's prompt suddenly rang out in Qin Feng's mind.

A flicker of interest immediately appeared in Qin Feng's eyes.

At the same time, a deep look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.

He had originally thought that while the Witch and Demon Races had some conflicts between them, there was absolutely no way they would go to war so soon. Yet he had never expected them to actually do it.

And they had already started fighting today while he was cultivating. How much time had even passed?

It had probably not even been a few days. Since the last time he had answered questions, not even half a month had gone by.

Had things really developed that quickly?

But there were still some benefits to things developing faster.

Because Qin Feng's main task now was to end this Witch-Demon War, or at the very least hold on until the Human Race began to develop.

That was what he needed to do.

Moreover, Qin Feng needed to raise his cultivation above that of a Saint. After all, in this world, Patriarch Hongjun was still around.

He was the Saint who stood above everyone else. No one dared defy the will established by Patriarch Hongjun.

Because he was now the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, only when a second Saint appeared could this situation be turned around.

In Qin Feng's memories, the Saints who appeared later should include Tongtian. As for the others, he did not remember too clearly.

But there were not many Saints among the earliest generation.

Only those few possessed the strength to contend with him.

So if he could contact the system, he naturally had to be careful not to kick Tongtian out.

"Activate it. Let me see just how badly they're fighting."

The moment Qin Feng finished speaking, a faint screen appeared before him. The image quality did not seem very good.

But at least he could clearly see what was happening on the battlefield.

Wasn't this just a remote livestream?

Qin Feng immediately grew excited. He had never imagined that the system possessed such an ability. But if that was truly the case—

Wouldn't he be able to use the system to watch any corner of the world in the future?

[Attention: Only at important moments will the system proactively issue a prompt. Furthermore, only when the host misses the scene at the time due to certain special circumstances will the system replay the footage.] [Under normal circumstances, the system will notify the host before an event begins. If the host does not personally rush over, the system will not replay the footage afterward unless a certain price is paid.]

Just as Qin Feng was savoring that pleasant thought, the system shattered his beautiful dream again.

And it did so without the slightest mercy.

More importantly, if he wanted to watch, he would have to pay part of the price as well.

Ever since the system had turned dark, it no longer regarded him, its master, with any respect.

But what could Qin Feng do now? His future advancement would still depend on the system, so it was best not to offend it if he could avoid doing so.

Before he could think any further, he quietly began watching the footage.

Very soon, he saw the scene of the Golden Crow's sneak attack.

His eyes immediately lit up.

Sure enough, after the system altered the order of events, what happened was exactly the same as in his memories.

Hou Yi and Kuafu had been refined into the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife while they were in an extremely weakened state.

That was what caused the conflict between the Witch and Demon Races to deepen more and more afterward.

Only then could they truly wage war. Otherwise, today was merely a small-scale encounter.

It could not represent the whole situation at all.

Thus, Qin Feng wished for them to fight as fiercely as possible.

More importantly, Qin Feng had now cultivated part of the Three Flowers above the Crown and Five Qi within the Chest of a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal.

If he unleashed his full strength, two flowers would appear above his head, while three clusters of true qi would emerge from his chest.

Under such circumstances, his combat power had naturally increased greatly as well.

Once he fully cultivated the Three Flowers and Five Qi, it would prove that Qin Feng had stepped into the peak of the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm.

At that time, he could prepare to advance into the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. Though there seemed to be only a single realm separating a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal from a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, the difference between them was enormous.

Because after reaching the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, one could begin preparing to condense the Zenith Heaven Dao Fruit. Once it was condensed, one could start accumulating power to sever the Three Corpses.

This was the key to breaking through into the Quasi-Saint realm.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Feng quietly watched the recording before him.

Very soon, he thought, the Golden Crow should make its move. After all, Hou Yi and Kuafu had already weakened to such a state.

Moreover, the others still seemed not to have reacted.

If he did not make a move now, it might be too late.

Sure enough, it was exactly as Qin Feng had anticipated.

Or rather, it had long been arranged by the system—like even if it strayed from its course, it would still be dragged back onto the track.

In an instant, the Eastern Emperor seemed to say something to the Golden Crow.

The Golden Crow's figure flickered, and it vanished from where it stood.

At that very moment, the Eastern Emperor Bell and Hou Yi's arrow canceled each other out.

Kuafu's expression suddenly changed. He rushed to Hou Yi's side and shoved him away.

The next second, a golden wing had already pierced through Kuafu's chest.

The Golden Crow did not linger. With a hard tug, it pulled out a mass of crimson essence.

Then, without the slightest hesitation, it charged at Hou Yi.

And by then, it no longer made any attempt to conceal itself.

Even Kuafu, who still had a little strength left, could not withstand it. Much less Hou Yi, who had already been completely weakened.

By the time the remaining members of the Witch Race reacted, both men's essence had already been extracted.

Though they had not truly died yet, they only had a few short years left to live.

And during that time, their cultivation would no longer improve in the slightest. Instead, it would continue to decline.

After doing all this, the Golden Crow returned to Eastern Emperor Taiyi's side, carrying two masses of crimson essence in its hands.

Then they left without looking back.

Watching this unfold, Di Jun must have thought, This is bad. He immediately followed them away without hesitation.

Otherwise, he alone could not possibly bear the Witch Race's terrifying fury.

But even so, the Witch-Demon War would likely begin much earlier.

Hong Yun, watching from afar, was utterly dumbfounded.

He did not even know what words to use to describe his current feelings.

Although he had long guessed that the Witch and Demon Races bore deep hatred toward one another, he had never imagined they would strike so openly.

Qin Feng had not expected it either.
