The West Queen Mother Gave Birth, and the Witch Clan Made Its Move
With the birth of the Heavenly Emperor Seal, the entire Primordial Wilderness rejoiced, and all sorts of strange phenomena appeared, as if someone had Attain Hunyuan Dao.
All the Great Powers in the Primordial Wilderness began to deduce the origin of the matter and discovered that the ultimate source was the Eastern Flower Donghua in the Purple Mansion. However, very few people could deduce exactly what had happened.
Neither the Innate Supreme Treasure nor Donghua's Dao Realm can be calculated by ordinary people. Sometimes, Donghua doesn't even need to deliberately conceal the Heavenly Secret; he can shield most people with the Dao Law Power.
In the Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi gazed at the extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth and couldn't help but sigh, "Fellow Daoist Donghua is truly becoming more and more powerful. During the one Yuanhui he disappeared from, nothing major happened in the entire Primordial Wilderness. He has only just returned and has already caused such a stir time and time again. It's truly enviable!"
Hong Yun plucked the strings of the zither, and beautiful music flowed from her fingertips. Daoist rhythms flowed from her fingertips, and the birds on Longevity Mountain danced in response to the music.
Meanwhile, Zhen Yuanzi was drinking spiritual tea, and the two of them were enjoying a carefree and leisurely life.
At one point, Hong Yun stopped playing the zither and said softly, "It's better if he's stronger. The stronger he is, the safer I will be!"
Zhen Yuanzi chuckled helplessly and said, "You, in this dog-eat-dog Primordial Wilderness, only your own strength is eternal; you can hardly rely on others."
"So, am I cultivating?" Hong Yun shrugged easily, her mind completely immersed in the music and the world around her, as if she had become one with the universe.
So what they said about work is absolutely right; they really are cultivating themselves.
He cultivates the Dao Heart, and refines his state of mind!
This is also what makes the Dao of Freedom unique.
Zhen Yuanzi was well aware of this, but he simply didn't want to see Hong Yun's smug face, as if he had powerful backers.
How enviable!
Moreover, Zhen Yuanzi wasn't really having fun; he was simply unable to break through to the Peak Quasi-Saint for the time being, so he set his sights on the Slaying the Corpse Severing Technique, which is why he was enjoying himself with Hong Yun.
However, after cultivating for so long, he still had no clue whatsoever. He had only one thought in his mind: it was truly difficult to slay Attachment Corpse!
Now, let alone severing it, even gathering his obsession wouldn't be easy for him. It's truly baffling how Taishang, Donghua, Nuwa managed to Slaying the Corpse.
The two exchanged a smile and continued their special practice.
In fact, it's not just the difficulty of severing the Attachment Corpse that's hard; once your cultivation reaches the Late Stage Quasi-Saint, breaking through to the peak is as difficult as ascending to heaven. This is the most crucial and difficult part of Quasi-Saint cultivation.
It is even more difficult than breaking through from the early stage of Quasi-Saint to the Late Stage Quasi-Saint.
After reaching the pinnacle, breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm is no longer a question of difficulty, but rather a question of feasibility.
Perhaps some people only reach the peak in their entire lives.
Just like Lu Ya in the past!
How pitiful, how tragic, how lamentable!
So sometimes I really envy the five Creation God of the Western God Realm, who were born at the Hunyuan Realm, although their potential is limited and it's difficult for them to reach a higher level.
But even the Hunyuan Realm alone is something that countless people can only dream of but never reach.
This is why all the guests in the Purple Sky Palace agreed to attack the Western God Realm; it concerns their own path to immortality, so at this point, there is no distinction between good and bad people.
There is only the world!
Only one debate!
It's likely that the Western God Realm shared the same idea, otherwise they wouldn't have imprisoned Yang Mei, wanting to know the location of the Primordial World.
If they could devour the Primordial World, the potential of the Western Region world would be limitless. Not only would the five Creation God be able to break through the current limitations of their potential and successfully advance to higher realms, but other Primordial Hun Yuan would also be born throughout the entire Western God Realm.
And the Primordial Wilderness was the same!
Jingyang Palace, the strange phenomena emanating from the Heavenly Emperor Seal gradually disappeared, and it subsequently fell into Donghua's hands.
The golden seal is square in shape, with nine dragons coiling above, representing the path of destiny, and the Great Dao of the Chaos Bell below.
There is only one word "Tao" engraved in the center!
The sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, Earth Fire Water Wind, and all the myriad races of the heavens all surround the seal.
There's no need for investigation; anyone with eyes can see that this is the Chaos Bell.
It's so obvious!
Compared to the Chaos Bell, the Heavenly Emperor Seal only has an additional element of the Dao of Fortune Emperor Dao Power; otherwise, it is completely identical to the Chaos Bell.
But what good is knowing?
Truly intelligent people, even if they know the answer, won't say it. And those who do say it aren't intelligent either. So, since they're not intelligent, let them be reincarnated so they can study properly and see if they can improve their brains.
With the completion of the forging of the Donghua Heavenly Emperor Seal (Chaos Bell), his cultivation journey has come to a perfect end.
No matter how powerful the Purple Mansion becomes in the future, there is no need to worry about the loss of its fortune.
Donghua emerged from the Jingyang Palace, gazed at the clear Sky Vault, and strolled upon the Azure Sea, where Azure Sea energy flowed freely.
Scenes from all over the Three Islands and Ten Continents appeared before him: comprehending the Great Dao, practicing supernatural powers, and training military formations. Different scenes from various places unfolded before him.
The Purple Mansion is thriving!
Just like his state of mind at this moment.
Just as Donghua was immersed in the beauty of nature, a figure flew over in a hurry and landed in front of him.
"Emperor Lord Majesty, the Empress's aura has suddenly changed drastically; it seems she is about to give birth."
Upon hearing this, Donghua instantly appeared before the West Queen Mother.
Inside the main hall, the West Queen Mother sat cross-legged, her aura rising and falling, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously gathered towards her, eventually settling in her abdomen.
Donghua could clearly sense that two new auras were emerging within the West Queen Mother's body.
"Twin!"
Donghua overjoyed. He hadn't expected there to be two children, a boy and a girl, which was truly wonderful.
He then channeled the Great Dao Power throughout his body into the West Queen Mother's body, and the Great Dao and Qi of the two instantly merged together.
As time passed, the West Queen Mother's aura stabilized, and the flow of spiritual energy between heaven and earth ceased.
At a certain moment, the West Queen Mother opened her eyes, her gaze filled with joy, and her eyes fixed on Donghua. A voice rang out:
"Get out!"
Donghua was stunned. They were an old married couple; why would she want him to go out? What part of her body hadn't he seen before? It was just having two children; did he really need to avoid her for that?
However, seeing the cold look in the West Queen Mother's eyes, he could only leave the hall in the end, and even his Divine Sense no longer lingered there, so he could only wait outside the hall.
Donghua paced back and forth like an ordinary person, showing no trace of transcendence.
Finally, as Donghua waited anxiously, two voices came from the main hall.
Donghua couldn't wait any longer and burst through the door!
Inside the main hall, two exquisitely beautiful children were in the hands of the West Queen Mother. However, the two children were growing up rapidly, changing in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the two children had grown into children of about eight years old.
Donghua's attention was instantly drawn to the two naked children, and a feeling of blood connection kept emerging, a feeling that was hard to describe.
He quickly stepped forward and gently stroked the child's tender face.
"Father!"
Two innocent voices rang out, and Donghua felt his heart melt. These two children were no less intelligent than he thought.
With a casual wave of his hand, Donghua manifested the Great Dao Power, forming the power of rules, and two dresses fell onto the child.
"Well!"
Both Donghua and West Queen Mother were fathers and mothers, and after teasing the two for a while, they were a little at a loss.
"Have you named your child yet?" the West Queen Mother asked Donghua.
Donghua picked up his son and said, "You inherited my Pure Yang Great Dao and further evolved it into the Supreme Yang Great Dao. You were born with the cultivation of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, comparable to Innate Deities. Your cultivation aptitude is also extraordinary."
"As the saying goes, the profound truth is also called enlightenment. From today onwards, you will be called Xuan Ming, is that alright?"
Xuan Ming jumped out of Donghua's arms, bowed, and said in his childish voice, "Thank you, Father!"
Donghua looked at the West Queen Mother and said, "You can name our daughter."
During the time when the West Queen Mother was pregnant, he was not in the Primordial Wilderness, and he truly owed her too much.
The West Queen Mother looked towards the distant Qiongshan Mountain, the place where she and Donghua had their first intimate encounter. She then said, "How about we call it Xuan Qiong?"
Donghua immediately understood, and smiled maliciously, as if he hadn't worked hard for the next generation of the Purple Mansion for a long time.
Xuan Qiong also gave a proper bow. "Thank you, Mother!"
Upon hearing this address, Donghua and West Queen Mother burst into laughter, their joy becoming increasingly undisguised.
The voices of a family of four echoed throughout the main hall, their laughter never ceasing.
In the Heaven Realm, Dijiang watched as the aura continuously rose from the Purple Mansion and finally made a decision.
"If we cannot survive this calamity, what will become of us? After I die, what do I care if the world is flooded!"
A murmur echoed in the hall. Dijiang was unwilling to do anything harmful to the Primordial Wilderness, but he was forced by the situation. Donghua's strength was too great, and he and the Witch Clan had no chance of winning.
Therefore, that difficult decision had to be made.
If he wins, he will remedy the flaws in the Primordial World!
If he were to lose, he would cease to exist in the primordial Primordial Wilderness.
So what is there to hesitate about!
Thinking of this, Dijiang immediately summoned Xuan Ming.
Not long after, Xuan Ming arrived at the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
"Sister Xuan Ming, after careful consideration, I believe we still need to extract some of the primordial power of the Star Dou, even if it damages the Zhou Tian Stars."
Upon hearing this answer, Xuan Ming was about to say something, but Dijiang stopped him.
"Stop talking. I understand what you're saying, but we can't wait, Donghua won't give us that kind of time, so this is the only way."
"I've made up my mind about this, and I won't change it. Are you willing to do it?"
Dijiang's words were decisive, giving Xuan Ming no chance to refute or refuse; it was either do it or have someone else do it.
Xuan Ming looked at Dijiang before him and could only say helplessly, "Elder brother, I will lead people to extract the stellar essence of the Heavenly Cycle once, but it can only be done once. Otherwise, we won't even have to wait for the final battle; the Heaven and Earth Karma will descend upon the Witch Clan!"
Dijiang nodded slowly and said, "The next battle will be the decisive one; one is enough!"
Xuan Ming silently left the main hall and came to the Starry Sky. Looking at the countless Star Dou in the sky, her heart was not at peace at all. It was as if a heavy burden as heavy as the sky was pressing on her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.
But after a long while, an order came from her mouth.
"Order the collection of the essence of the stars!"
As soon as the words fell, thousands of the Witch Clan instantly activated their forces, extracting streams of stellar primordial power. The light of the Star Dou gradually dimmed, and the entire Primordial Wilderness instantly darkened by one-tenth.
All the Great Powers sensed something and turned their gazes toward the Starry Sky, but none of them knew what was happening.
Inside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, after Xuan Ming left, Dijiang also left the Heaven Realm, his figure traversing endless space, and instantly arriving on Mount Tai.
Not far away, a figure stood on an inconspicuous hilltop; it was none other than the Ancestor Witch Houtu.
Dijiang gazed at Houtu before him in silence for a long while before finally speaking, "Little sister, I need your help."
Houtu did not turn to look at Dijiang, but instead kept her gaze on the foot of Buqi Mountain, where many lonely human souls still wandered, instinctively wanting to enter the Netherworld from there.
"Elder brother, I know what you're planning, but are you truly prepared? Once that treasure left by the Father God is used, there will be no turning back."
Dijiang said firmly, "I have made up my mind to fight Donghua to the death. This battle will determine the future of my Witch Clan."
Houtu turned around and looked at the resolute Dijiang. She felt no anger, only heartache. She truly felt sorry for her brother. Perhaps others would think that Dijiang was doing it for her so that she could Attain Hunyuan Dao.
But only they understood that Dijiang had only written about the Witch Clan.
It can be said that Dijiang dedicated his entire life to the Witch Clan!
"Alright, I am willing to help my elder brother retrieve that treasure. I will also bear the Heaven and Earth Karma for him, even if it means the destruction of my physical body."
Upon hearing Houtu's words, Dijiang felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
After standing on Mount Tai for a while, the two set off for Buzhou Mountain.
"Elder brother, younger sister, are we really going to do this?" In the Pangu Hall, Zhu Jiuyin asked incredulously, as if he had heard something extraordinary.
Dijiang patted Zhu Jiuyin on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will take full responsibility for this matter and will absolutely not implicate you. If I lose, you should return to the Netherworld with my little sister. I believe Donghua will not really hunt you down and wipe out the roots of my Witch Clan."
"If we win, then nothing else matters. Even if there's a huge responsibility, we can face it."
Zhu Jiuyin was not one to hesitate. Upon hearing Dijiang's words, he hardened his heart and said, "Since elder brother has made his decision, I support him. We will face it together."
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
Zhu Rong and Gong Gong had also arrived in the main hall at some unknown time.
"Eldest brother, second brother, and youngest sister, we brothers are of one mind. From birth until now, we have never been apart. How can we be left behind in this matter? Whether we succeed or not in the end, we will face it together."
"The Twelve Ancestor Witches, not one can be missing!"
Their words were powerful and resounding!
Dijiang stepped forward and patted the two on the shoulder, saying, "Alright, it's settled then!"
"Dry!"
"Dry!"
Time has passed, and a thousand years have gone by since Xuan Ming and Xuan Qiong were born.
The birth of these two little ones seemed to have revitalized the entire Purple Mansion, filling it with laughter and joy, and everyone doted on them.
After spending a hundred years with their son and daughter, Donghua and West Queen Mother began their seclusion, which was actually Donghua helping West Queen Mother improve her cultivation.
Jingyang Palace, the two people's Great Dao merged together, and their primordial spirits intertwined. In an instant, the entire world was filled with the power of Yin and Yang, as well as the collision of the Emperor's Dao and the Heavenly Punishment Great Dao.
The West Queen Mother's cultivation, which had been delayed due to pregnancy, has also increased rapidly, and she is currently striving to reach the peak.
Inside the Purple Mansion, Xuan Ming and Xuan Qiong were initially very polite to others, and they were also diligently cultivating the cultivation techniques and great Dao taught by Donghua.
But as time went by, the two little ones started to get out of control, because no one dared to discipline them.
He looks exactly like a brat!
At that very moment, several Quasi-Saint Emperor Lord of the Purple Mansion also emerged from seclusion one after another.
Taiyuan, Barefoot Immortal, Shao Siming Tai Hua, Great Commander of Fate, Haotian, Lord of the Clouds, Candle Dragon, Longbo.
During this period of seclusion, Haotian, Lord of the Clouds, Great Commander of Fate successfully broke through to the Mid Quasi-Saint.
As for the other five Emperor Lords, although they have made some progress, none of them have broken through to the next realm.
On this day, above Jingyang Palace, the Heavenly Dao Power manifested, with rolling lightning and the Moon Great Dao and the Heavenly Punishment Great Dao stretching across the Sky Vault.
A majestic image of a goddess appeared on the Three Islands and Ten Continents.
The West Queen Mother successfully broke through to the Peak Quasi-Saint.
He became the second person in the Purple Mansion to break through to the Peak Quasi-Saint realm.
Even Fuxi had not broken through to the peak realm at this time, which shows the importance of the blessing of fortune. Of course, the reason why the West Queen Mother established the Heavenly Tribulation is also a factor.
Therefore, no one's breakthrough is accidental, not even the Three Pure Ones!
With the West Queen Mother breaking through to a higher realm, Donghua also convened the Purple Mansion Conference, a meeting above the Grand Unity realm.
"Greetings, Your Majesty and Your Majesty!"
Donghua sat upright on the Emperor's Seat and raised his hand to indicate that the crowd did not need to stand on ceremony.
"My lords, thank you all for your hard work this Yuanhui Festival!"
"Serving His Majesty and the Purple Mansion is no hardship!"
After a brief exchange of pleasantries and boasting, we got down to business.
Donghua slowly said, "I hereby appoint Xuan Ming as the Xuan Ming Prince of the Purple Mansion, and Xuan Qiong as the Princess of the Purple Mansion Xuan Qiong, temporarily granting them the privileges of a Celestial Lord!"
The two little ones immediately stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
But before the two could rejoice, a surge of magical power descended, instantly sealing their Grand Unity cultivation, leaving them only at the Dao Fruit Realm.
"You two are young, possessing strength but lacking character. I will now seal your cultivation, and you will begin your training from scratch. I have also found two teachers for you, who will be responsible for instructing you in your studies from now on."
When Donghua emerged from seclusion and learned that his son and daughter had become unruly children, he was furious. He did not want his son and daughter to become like the Golden Crow Eighth Crown Prince.
If that's the case, then it would be better to send them to be reincarnated now!
Fortunately, the two were young and had time to grow and change; otherwise, Donghua might have really considered sending them to be reincarnated.
"Great Commander of Fate, Lord of the Clouds, you two need to set aside some time to properly discipline these two brats. I'm giving you the authority; beat them to death as much as you can, and even if you do, I can resurrect them, so you don't need to worry. But let me make this clear: if you can't even discipline them properly, I'll skin you alive!"
The two quickly stepped forward and agreed!
This was the first time they had ever seen Donghua angry, and their hearts skipped a beat.
It was the first time the two little ones had ever seen Donghua angry, and they were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, standing blankly in the center of the hall.
Donghua felt a pang of pity seeing them like this, but the thought of their unruly behavior only fueled his anger.
He directly unleashed two streams of magical power, pulling them back into his own Inner World. Originally, these two little fellows weren't even qualified to stand in the main hall.
After doing all this, Donghua looked at everyone in the hall. What he had just done was merely an appetizer; the real main event was about to begin.
"My lords, now that everything in the Purple Mansion is ready, it is time to unify the Primordial Wilderness. Do any of you have any opinions, suggestions, or different ideas? You may raise them now!"
