The Light of Taiyi, and What Came Next for the Witch and Demon Races (Important)

After being rescued by Luohu in the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was left on the Sun Star, where he transformed into his true form Three-legged Golden Crow. He absorbed the power of Di Jun's original Golden Crow and was reborn on the Fusang Tree on the Sun Star.

After being conceived and born this time, her injuries healed, the aftereffects of receiving Luohu's Devil Dao power disappeared, and her cultivation level also made a breakthrough.

But he truly didn't want this breakthrough; wouldn't it be tantamount to eating his brother's flesh?

Sometimes he really wanted to fight Donghua to the death, and no matter who lived or died, he wanted to end his life that way.

However, when he thought of how his elder brother Di Jun had sacrificed all the primordial power and the Great Dao Power he had accumulated over countless eons to heal his injuries and enable him to break through in cultivation, he realized that Di Jun had done so.

Thinking of the heavy burden of the demon race on his shoulders, thinking of his elder brother Di Jun's earnest expectations and instructions, thinking of Xi He, Chang Xi, and the Golden Crow.

Taiyi knew that he was no longer living for himself, but for everyone.

As long as I am alive, there is hope. There is hope for the demon race, hope for the Heavenly Court, and hope for the return of Di Jun.

So no matter how difficult it was, Taiyi persevered, but after being out of seclusion for so long, he hadn't heard a single good news.

First, the Demon Master Kunpeng returned to the North Sea and took all the demons of the North Sea with him. Although they did not officially break away from the demon race, they were in a state of obeying orders but not procuring them.

Following closely behind were many other races that had previously joined the demon race, which began to break away and declare independence. To date, about one hundred races have broken away.

All these things left him exhausted, and his anger was building up inside him.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi looked around and, seeing that everyone was silent, said sternly:

"Gentlemen, the demon race is not yet extinct! As long as I, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, live, the demon race will never perish!"

But no matter what Taiyi said, no one in the hall spoke, as if this battle had completely crushed the spirit of the demon race.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was not angry when he saw this, because he knew that now was not the time to be angry, and that being angry would not solve anything.

"Our demon race and our Heavenly Court cannot be without an emperor for even a day. I have decided to offer a sacrifice to Heaven to become emperor, to rebuild the Star Dou, and then to conquer any races that have broken away!"

"Are you all willing to help me?"

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope seemed to rise in everyone's hearts. After all, no matter how much they succumbed, they couldn't change the situation of the demon race. Only by taking a gamble might they still have a chance.

Bai Ze laughed freely and said respectfully, "I, Bai Ze, am willing to serve Your Majesty and fight to the death for the Heavenly Court!"

He was utterly loyal to the Heavenly Court. He had only resented Di Jun for being so useless before. But when it came to the life-or-death moment for the demon race, he would never run away and was willing to die for the Heavenly Court.

At this moment, Bai Ze seemed to see hope in Taiyi again, and saw the domineering aura and methods of Di Jun back then.

Declaring oneself emperor signifies that the demon race has not fallen into decline, and that the demon race has a master, which can boost the morale of the demon race in a short period of time.

Re-establishing the Star Dou signifies a redistribution of interests within the Heavenly Court, allowing it to quickly win over the hearts of the people and concentrate its power.

By punishing the rebellious tribes, we can once again demonstrate the power of the demon race, intimidate people, and awe the Primordial Wilderness.

But all of this is predicated on Taiyi being strong enough, because the Heavenly Court is currently severely lacking in top experts. If the Witch Clan and the Purple Mansion were to attack, it would instantly collapse.

The other Demon Saint also recovered from their shock and were astonished by Taiyi's methods, and they all expressed their support and submission.

Taiyi's actions at this moment truly shocked everyone in the hall. After all, Taiyi had never used such methods before. Although he was the Eastern Emperor, he held the position of the Heavenly Court's number one enforcer.

To put it bluntly, they only have fists, no brains!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was also slightly pleased to see this, as it was one of the few pieces of good news he had received in the past few days.

"Gentlemen, the demon race will surely rise again in our hands, and the Heavenly Court will surely reign supreme under our rule!"

At this point, Taiyi released his imposing aura, suppressing the entire audience, and slowly said, "This time, since Demon Saint Ci Tie and Demon Saint Gui Che have died in battle, I will not designate anyone to assume the position of Demon Saint."

"I will set up two arenas in the Heavenly Court. From Heavenly Court -Quasi-Saint down to Grand Unity, whoever stands to the end will become the new Demon Saint!"

Do you all understand?

These words instantly enlivened the atmosphere in the hall, and everyone responded in unison:

"We will obey Your Majesty's decree!"

Taiyi nodded, signaling everyone to stand up. He then took out the River Diagram and Luo Book and handed it to Bai Ze, saying in a deep voice:

"Bai Ze, I hereby appoint you as the Prime Minister of the Heavenly Court, in charge of all affairs of the Heavenly Court. You have the authority to decide all matters of the Heavenly Court with a single word. Anyone who disobeys will be killed!"

Bai Ze's eyes immediately reddened, not because of the two Top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure, but because of this weighty trust.

Although he was highly valued during the reign of Di Jun, he had never received such treatment. At this moment, he felt a sense of honor, like a scholar dying for someone who understands him.

Bai Ze knelt on one knee, raised his hands, and proclaimed loudly, "Your subject Bai Ze thanks Your Majesty for your kindness. I am willing to fight to the death for Your Majesty and to offer everything!"

Taiyi laughed heartily, placed the River Diagram and Luo Book in Bai Ze's hands, helped him up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "We are ruler and subject in the palace, but in private we are brothers of the demon race. No need for thanks!"

Then, holding Bai Ze's hand, he turned to the crowd and said, "As long as we, ruler and subjects, are of one mind, there is no obstacle we cannot overcome. I firmly believe that our demon race and our Heavenly Court will once again illuminate the Primordial Wilderness, and you and I will surely reign supreme!"

The crowd bowed in unison:

"Greetings to the Heavenly Emperor! Greetings to the Prime Minister!"

"Congratulations to the demon race! Congratulations to the Heavenly Court!"

Buzhou Mountain!

Inside the Pangu Hall, the eleven Ancestor Witch sat together, but the atmosphere was unusually somber, for this was the first time since the birth of the Witch Clan that one of their Ancestor Witch had been missing, and it was a permanent loss of one of Ancestor Witch.

Dijiang's eyes flickered as he looked at the ten Ancestor Witch in the main hall, finally settling on Houtu. He asked in a deep voice, "Little sister, I wonder how my tenth brother's divine body is now?"

Houtu rose and replied, "Eldest brother, tenth brother's true spirit has completely dissipated, the Great Dao has collapsed, and he has returned to the embrace of the Father God. However, his true body still exists, and perhaps after countless eons, he will return."

"I placed its true form in the Netherworld, using the Way of the Earth and the energy of the Netherworld to cleanse it, preserving its divinity, and awaiting the opportune moment."

"Thanks a lot!"

After saying this, Dijiang looked at everyone in the hall and said, "In this great battle, our clan lost one Ancestor Witch and eleven Great Witch, all of whom perished at the hands of the Purple Mansion. We are now irreconcilably opposed to the Purple Mansion."

"But now that our tenth brother has passed away and Dutian is no longer appearing, what means do we have to deal with the Purple Mansion and Donghua?"

Upon hearing Dijiang's words, even the once arrogant Ancestor Witch lowered their heads. The pressure Donghua had exerted on them during their past battle was simply too great.

Their scheming, their cunning, and their ruthlessness all shocked them greatly, especially in terms of strength. They didn't know how to defeat Donghua.

Peak Quasi-Saint, with all three corpses severed, and possessing incomparably powerful Heavenly Dao Power —how could they possibly fight him? They truly had no idea how to deal with him.

Xuan Ming was the first to stand up and say, "Eldest brother, fellow brothers, although the strength that Purple Mansion has revealed this time is formidable, it is not overwhelming."

"Even if we can't use the Dutian Great Formation, if the Purple Mansion wants to attack us, their so-called Myriad Immortals Formation won't be that strong. After all, once we leave the Three Islands and lose the advantage of terrain, the strength of the Myriad Immortals Formation will inevitably decrease. So we don't need to be overly wary of the Purple Mansion."

"As for Donghua, the Heavenly Dao Power he used in the last battle must not have lasted long, otherwise we wouldn't have needed to fight and could have just surrendered."

"Besides, my younger sister is almost at the Peak Quasi-Saint. If she were to join forces with my eldest and second brothers, we might very well be able to put up a fight!"

This time, Xuan Ming broke his usual silence and analyzed Purple Mansion and Donghua in great detail. As soon as he finished speaking, the Pangu Hall became lively.

Zhu Rong slammed his fist on the table and said, "Sister Xuan Ming is right. I support what you say. Our Witch Clan occupies the Primordial Land and has countless sons. What is there to fear from the Purple Mansion and Donghua? At worst, I will self-destruct and perish together with them!"

Although Zhu Rong's words were harsh, they instantly garnered support from many people, since the Witch Clan had always revered force.

But Gong Gong hearing Zhu Rong's words, Gonggong angrily cursed, "You reckless fool! A mere brute's courage!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Rong, enraged, pointed at Gong Gong and said, "Fine, then tell me your brilliant ideas. If you can't offer any convincing explanations, I'm not finished with you!"

Gong Gong looked at everyone in the hall, stood up and said, "Elder brother, fellow brothers, the current situation in the Primordial Wilderness world is that the Purple Mansion is the strongest, followed by the Witch Clan, and the Demon Clan is the weakest. My idea is to join forces with the Demon Clan to deal with the Purple Mansion. As for the conflict between the Witch and the Demon Clan, we can leave that for later."

As soon as Gong Gong finished speaking, it caused a huge uproar. Everyone looked at Gong Gong in disbelief.

The liches and demons join forces to fight against the Purple Mansion!

That's simply impossible. The two sides might not even reach an agreement before their subordinates start fighting tooth and nail.

Zhu Rong laughed loudly, "Gong Gong, I thought you had some brilliant ideas, but it turns out you only have such vulgar words, making us a laughingstock!"

The other Ancestor Witch, while not mocking Gong Gong, also did not support him.

Houtu glanced at the dejected Gong Gong. In fact, she also supported this approach, because it was the best way, but also almost impossible.

Getting the Lichs to join forces now is like getting the Zerg to join forces after level 49 – it's simply not going to work.

Seeing everyone's response, Houtu lost hope and stood up, saying, "Brothers, during this time I have been studying formations, and inspired by the flags of the Purple Mansion Myriad Immortals Formation, I have developed new ideas for the Dutian Great Formation."

"We can also use the array flags to gather the power of many Great Witch and recreate the Dutian Great Formation!"

Houtu's voice fell, it instantly stirred up a storm.

Dijiang stood up excitedly and asked, "Little sister, is what you say true? Can the power of the array flags really be used to rebuild the capital?"

Houtu nodded firmly and said, "Theoretically speaking, there is no problem, but we need to try. As long as many Great Witch participate, even if not all Twelve Ancestor Witches are present, we can still recreate the true form of the Father God."

Upon hearing this, Dijiang looked at the excited crowd and said, "Very well, in that case, order the Great Witch of all tribes to gather at Mount Buzhou, where we will jointly forge the array flags and reenact the Dutian battle!"

"Yes, sir!"

After things calmed down, Houtu looked at the departing Ancestor Witch and sighed. She didn't know if her actions were right or wrong, but an ominous premonition lingered in her heart.

It seemed that this approach would bring disaster to the Witch Clan, an indelible disaster, but now she had no better choice than to do this.

"I hope this feeling is wrong!"
