Time passed like flowing water, and another ten thousand years slipped by. During this epoch, Ye Xuan had not been idle. He first integrated the one-percent Sword Law into his other Great Daos, then attempted to comprehend the Law of Derivation.
This supreme Great Dao took its meaning from derivation, assisting the harmony of heaven and earth. If he could ascend another level, it would become the Immeasurable Great Dao, granting immeasurable power in every gesture—a single force to shatter all laws. Like the Sword Law, it could supplement endless other Daos, making their might even greater.
While Ye Xuan was in secluded cultivation, an electronic sound rang out in his ear once more.
[Ding Dong!]
[Detected: After ten thousand years, the second Witch-Demon War is about to erupt. Please choose from the options below for the Host.]
[Choice One: Intervene forcefully to prevent the Witch and Demon clans from waging war. Complete the task to receive a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Heavenly Book!]
[Choice Two: Go to Mount Buzhou and join the Twelve Ancestral Witches in attacking the Heavenly Court. Complete the task to receive a one-percent fragment of the Law of Emotion!]
[Choice Three: Go to the Heavenly Court and join the Demon Emperor and his forces in capturing the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Complete the task to receive one Foundation of the Great Dao.]
[Choice Four: Ignore the matter entirely and let both sides wage war. Complete the task to receive a mass of Chaos Origin Qi.]
Ye Xuan, deep in seclusion, heard the electronic sound in his ear once more and a hint of surprise flickered across his face.
"Another war about to break out?"
The first choice required him to step in and prevent the conflict, rewarding him with the Heavenly Book—one of the three books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. This was the God-Beating Whip, a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, and the Investiture of the Gods, also a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. When combined, they formed a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Though it was the Heavenly Book, it was essentially useless to Ye Xuan.
As for the second choice, it meant helping the Twelve Ancestral Witches attack the Heavenly Court, earning a one-percent fragment of the Law of Emotion.
This Great Dao mainly judged the strength of a target's heart in seeking the Dao. If that heart was weak, it could alter their thoughts, causing them to collapse without a fight. Though not inherently suited for offense, when used alongside other Daos, it possessed its own subtle wonders.
The third choice was to help the Heavenly Court, earning one Foundation of the Great Dao. But Ye Xuan's ambition lay in the Great Dao itself—why would he covet the seat of a Saint?
Moreover, last time, Ye Xuan had not even acted. The Heavenly Court already possessed the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, one of the three great killing formations of the Primordial World. Once deployed, it could rival a Saint. The Twelve Ancestral Witches also had the Twelve Heavenly Gods Great Formation, which could summon a phantom of the Pangu True Body, likewise matching a Saint.
Though Ye Xuan was already considered invincible among Innate God-Demons, compared to a Saint, he was utterly fragile.
Only by eliminating them before they could set up their formations would he have even a sliver of a chance.
Once those formations were deployed, even escaping would be no easy task for Ye Xuan.
Shaking his head again, Ye Xuan spoke.
"I'll choose the last one. Ignore it."
[Ding Dong!]
[Host has chosen to ignore the matter and let both sides wage war. One mass of Chaos Origin Qi is being distributed. Please check it yourself.]
After Ye Xuan made his choice, another electronic sound entered his ear.
In the void, a flash of Chaos Divine Light appeared, and a mass of light radiating endless Chaos Qi fell into Ye Xuan's hand.
Upon that mass of light, the boundless Chaos Qi appeared blackish-purple, distorting the infinite void around it.
Looking at the mass of Chaos Origin Qi in his hand, a look of great joy spread across Ye Xuan's face.
Every Innate God-Demon, once born, was at least at the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm. This was because, during their gestation, a mass of Innate Origin power had been fused into them, elevating their Innate Foundation.
If, during their gestation, they had even a trace of Innate Origin power, they would be at least an Innate Being, with some hope of rising to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm.
The same applied to Innate Spiritual Roots!
Within every Innate Spiritual Root, there was also a mass of Innate Origin Qi.
As for Chaos Origin Power, it was far more formidable—a rare treasure born only from the endless Chaos Qi.
Legend had it that every Great Dao Demon God, during their gestation, had a mass of supreme Chaos Origin Qi fused into them, granting them a Chaos Demon God Body at birth. With just their physical strength, they could rival a Saint.
This was a true supreme treasure, unattainable by any without immense fortune!
But after some thought, Ye Xuan decided not to fuse it into his body.
His physical strength was only at the Quasi-Saint realm, and that was only thanks to the Thunder Demon God that he had reached that level.
Rather than fusing it into his body to elevate his physical power further, it would be better to fuse it into the last Innate Gourd, the Chaos Gourd. If he could elevate it to an Innate Supreme Treasure, it would also benefit his Path of Three Corpses.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Xuan performed a divination. Finding it feasible, he entered seclusion once more.
He planned to first refine the Heavenly Emperor Gourd and the last Chaos Gourd together, merging them into one, then fuse in the Chaos Origin Qi to make it easier to ascend to an Innate Supreme Treasure.
Another ten thousand years passed. Seeing that both Innate Spiritual Treasures had been fully refined, a satisfied expression appeared on Ye Xuan's face.
Raising his hand, he infused a trace of Karma's subtlety into them.
Seek Cause Determine Effect!
This subtle art might not necessarily work on an Innate Supreme Treasure, but it could at least increase the chances of its ascension. Ye Xuan already had immense karmic ties with the Infinite Beings of the West.
Wielding the Way of Karma came as naturally as breathing.
After setting everything in place, Ye Xuan fused the mass of Chaos Origin Qi into the treasure and entered seclusion once more.
After the Evil Corpse had been entrusted to it, this Innate Spiritual Treasure had yet to be integrated into the Three Thousand Heavens.
Once integrated, it would make the Three Thousand Heavens even more lifelike, granting them the wonder of autonomous derivation.
While Ye Xuan was in seclusion, the Primordial World was far from peaceful.
Countless ages had passed since the last Witch-Demon War. Both sides had not only recovered their strength but had grown even more powerful. The Dragon, Phoenix, and Kirin Clans had long since entered the Heavenly Court, filling its armies with countless experts. The Demon Emperor, relying on the River Diagram and Luo Book, had even comprehended a supreme formation.
Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation!
This supreme formation could harness the power of endless stars to set up a grand array. Once deployed, beneath the sages, there would be no match!
After experiencing the might of this formation, morale in the Heavenly Court soared, as if annihilating the Witch Clan was merely a flick of the hand.
As for the Twelve Ancestral Witches and their kind, they had not been idle either. They too had comprehended a supreme formation.
The Twelve Heavenly Gods Great Formation!
Each Ancestral Witch held a Dutian God-Sha Banner in hand, which could connect to the earth below, drawing on boundless fierce and baleful qi, along with endless Innate Filthy Qi. Once set up, relying on the bloodline bond among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, they could condense a phantom of the Pangu True Body.
Seeing the Pangu True Body, its power incomparably vast, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were overjoyed, eager to try their hand, ready to wash away past shame and take down the Heavenly Court.
