The Netherworld Earth Realm is now filled with a large number of ghosts. People who die below the Golden Immortal Realm usually come here via Mount Tai, while some go to the Blood Sea.

The Netherworld was also a remnant territory of the Witch Clan. Hundreds of thousands of the Witch Clan warriors who survived from Buzhou Mountain, along with the original forces and the Witch Clan of the Houtu Tribe, all survived.

Therefore, in terms of strength, the Witch Clan is still a prominent force in the Primordial Wilderness, but it no longer has the power to suppress Myriad Races of the Primordial World Clan.

In a grand hall in the Netherworld, Xing Tian, Xuan Ming, and Houtu sat upright. These were the only three Quasi-Saint remaining in the Witch Clan: Hou Tu at the peak of Houtu -Peak Quasi-Saint, Xuan Ming at the late stage of Xuan Ming- Late Stage Quasi-Saint, Xing Tian at the early stage of Quasi-Saint.

Besides these, the Witch Clan also has a few quasi -Quasi-Saint, but they are not worthy of being called the true pillars of the Witch Clan.

"Ancestor Witch, is Houyi's injury truly beyond healing? Even the Hunyuan Saint cannot save him?"

It was Xing Tian who spoke; he had just returned from Houyi's place. Chang Xi Taiyin Star Lord, was also in the Underworld, accompanying Houyi.

Houtu shook her head, then nodded, and finally said helplessly, "The serious part of Houyi's injury is the dissipation of his true spirit. This is a difficult matter for us, but it is a very simple matter for the Great Heavenly Venerate and the Saint. They only need to communicate with the Heavenly Dao and condense Houyi's true spirit."

Upon hearing this, Xing Tian immediately stood up and was about to step out of the main hall.

Where are you going?

Xing Tian said without turning his head, "Houyi is my brother. How can I stand by and watch him like this? I will go to the Heaven Realm to beg the Great Heavenly Venerate Donghua. I will do anything as long as he is willing to help!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Tian was about to leave, but Houtu Tu waved her hand, blocking his way.

"I'm not dead yet, it's not your turn to lead the Witch Clan!"

Upon hearing this, Xing Tian immediately turned around and said, "Ancestor Witch, that's not what I meant. I just don't want to see Houyi continue like this. I believe that Donghua, as the Great Heavenly Venerate Heavenly Emperor, still has this much mercy. At worst, I'll serve him for a while. I will do everything I can to save Houyi!"

Houtu gestured for Xing Tian to sit down, and finally said helplessly, "You don't understand the key point. Saving Houyi is simple, but Houyi's real fault lies in offending Heaven, which is unforgivable!"

Xing Tian asked in bewilderment, "Offended Heaven? How is that possible?"

Houtu sighed and said, "The Golden Crow are Innate Deities born from heaven and earth. Di Jun and Taiyi were born as the Sun Star. Even the ten Golden Crow born by Xi He later were Innate Deities. They were born with divine duties and were responsible for the movement of the stars."

"But Houyi killed eight Golden Crow at once, even though these eight Golden Crow had not committed any crime. Naturally, Heaven and Earth would dislike Houyi. Moreover, at that time, the ruler of the Heaven Realm was Taiyi, and it was very easy for him to change the rules. Therefore, in the eyes of Heaven and Earth, Houyi is now a sinner, a person who has committed a crime."

The only explanation for this is that Hou Yi Shoots the Suns shot down the sun too early. The ten Golden Crow had not yet committed any acts that angered the heavens and the people, so they naturally had no sins on their hands. Therefore, Houyi's actions would indeed displease the heavens and the earth, since the ten Golden Crow were responsible for the operation of the great sun.

Xing Tian asked angrily, "But what does this have to do with saving Houyi? Don't even mention that the Golden Crow haven't gone extinct yet. Even if they did, so what? Aren't there plenty of other Myriad Races of the Primordial World? Why can't the Golden Crow?"

"Just because he was once the Heavenly Emperor!"

Xuan Ming, standing to the side, spoke up, his expression unusually calm. Although the Lich and Demon races had always been mortal enemies, it had to be said that the Demon race was truly powerful in the past. If Di Jun hadn't gone astray later, there would have been no Donghua at all.

Xing Tian fell silent. Although he was unwilling to admit it, the truth was indeed the case: Di Jun and Taiyi had indeed been Heavenly Emperor, regardless of whether they were competent or not, this was an unchangeable fact.

"What should we do now? Houyi's condition really can't wait any longer."

Houtu said, "You don't need to worry about Houyi's matter, I will take care of it!"

"I've summoned you here today to tell you something: I'm about to die. To be precise, I'm going to complete something the Father God didn't finish, and the price will be my own demise!"

These words shocked Xuan Ming and Xing Tian. They never expected Houtu to fall. Houtu was the hope of the entire Witch Clan. How could she fall?

"Little sister, what's going on here? What is it that you absolutely have to do, and how does it involve Father God?" Xuan Ming asked anxiously. She couldn't understand it at all. Houtu was far too important to the Witch Clan now. A Peak Quasi-Saint existence was the only hope for the Witch Clan to rise again.

Houtu sighed and slowly said, "Reincarnation. Heaven and earth are currently lacking reincarnation, which is also the most crucial link in the perfection of the Dao."

"Originally, I planned to transform into the Cycle of Reincarnation after breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm. At that time, I could not only allow the Cycle of Reincarnation to be born, but I would also not perish. Instead, I would take control of the Earthly Dao and become an existence no less than Donghua and the Six Saints, or even stronger."

"But now I am suffering from Dao injuries, and I don't know how many Yuanhui it will take to heal. I may never be able to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm again."

"But perfecting the Dao is urgent, and now that Minghe has comprehended the Reincarnation Great Dao, I don't have much time left."

If Houtu does not imprint the cycle of reincarnation, then the person to be chosen will be changed, and the one who will replace Houtu is Minghe.

Because the Earthly Dao cannot wait for Houtu indefinitely, the trend of the perfection of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Daos cannot be changed by anything. This is the general trend of the Primordial Wilderness, and even Hongjun, the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao, cannot change it.

After a moment of silence Xing Tian asked, "Is reincarnation absolutely necessary?"

"We absolutely must go!"

"What should the Witch Clan do?" Xuan Ming asked unwillingly.

"Little sister, this is your path. I know I shouldn't advise you, but the Witch Clan is now in decline, and various forces are eyeing us covetously. If we lose a top expert like you, it will surely attract the siege of all races, with the Demon Clan bearing the brunt!"

Houtu chuckled softly, a look of relief in her eyes and face, and said, "Don't worry, I've already arranged the way out for the Witch Clan. Now that Donghua has become the Heavenly Emperor, he is using his status as the Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable to suppress the Primordial Wilderness and establish the Supreme Heavenly Court. Therefore, the Primordial Wilderness will be the world of the Heavenly Court in the future."

"I made a pact with Donghua to exchange the power of reincarnation for the Heavenly Court's protection of the Witch Clan. From then on, the Witch Clan became the administrators of the Earthly Reincarnation, enjoying supreme fortune and merit."

"So you don't need to worry. Anyway, once I perish, the power of reincarnation will inevitably be divided among various forces, and you can't hold onto it anyway. You might as well give it to Donghua in exchange for the long-term survival of the Witch Clan!"

"Furthermore, after I undergo reincarnation, a great deal of merit will descend upon me, and the karma of the Witch Clan will be completely cleared away. You can then cultivate in peace and await the opportune moment!"

Upon hearing this arrangement, they all understood that Houtu's mind was made up and there was no way to change it.

Xuan Ming said sadly, "Little sister, my ten brothers have already left me, and now you are leaving me too? How can I bear this!"

Houtu stepped forward and grasped Xuan Ming's hand, saying, "Sister Xuan Ming, with your talent, you are capable of ensuring the longevity of the Witch Clan. With the help of Great Witch like Xing Tian and Jiu Feng, I believe the Witch Clan will rise again."

"I will ask Donghua to help him heal Houyi. With Houyi and Xing Tian by our side, I will feel much more at ease with the Witch Clan."

At this point, Houtu chuckled and said, "Besides, I might not necessarily perish; there's still a chance I'll survive, so sister, you don't need to worry too much!"

Xing Tian silently walked out of the main hall. At this moment, he only regretted that he was not strong enough to change the status quo of the Witch Clan.

"You said Houtu sent you?"

In the Great Luo Heaven of the Heaven Realm, Donghua looked at Xing Tian and Houyi, who had been brought by Chang Xi, and asked in confusion.

Xing Tian bowed respectfully and said to Donghua, "Reporting to the Great Heavenly Venerate, it was indeed the Ancestor Witch who sent me. She hopes you can save Houyi!"

Donghua laughed and said, "If she asks me to save someone, I have to save her. Houtu, why didn't Houtu come herself instead of sending you?"

Upon hearing this, before Xing Tian could say anything, Chang Xi anxiously said, "Great Heavenly Venerate, Chang Xi begs you to save Houyi! As long as Houyi can live, Chang Xi is willing to serve the Heavenly Court and will do anything without hesitation!"

Donghua glanced at Chang Xi but said nothing. Instead, he focused his gaze on Xing Tian. He knew that Houtu must have told Xing Tian something, otherwise she wouldn't have rashly asked him to save people.

As expected, looking at Donghua's eyes, Xing Tian's gaze became inscrutable, and he said with an unusual expression, "The Ancestor Witch instructed that if the Great Heavenly Venerate is unwilling to save Houyi, he will combine your Dao aura with her Dao to conceive a child, and let this child rule over the Witch Clan and the Netherworld!"

"Depend on!"

Donghua cursed inwardly, he never expected Houtu to have such a trick up her sleeve, actually using this to threaten him.

"Ruthless!"

"That's ruthless!"

He had no doubt that Houtu could do it; it was too easy for them. After all, they had cultivated both the Great Dual Cultivation and the Innate Deities. For innate deities like them, having offspring required more than just physical intercourse; the fusion of the Great Dao was also possible.

So this threat really worked on him!

Upon hearing this, Chang Xi, who had been very anxious, seemed to calm down and looked at Donghua with an unusual, somewhat enigmatic gaze.

Xing Tian stared wide-eyed at Donghua, utterly bewildered that Donghua and Houtu, the Ancestral Witch Houtu, had such a story.

If the Ancestor Witch could really give birth to Donghua's offspring, it would seem like a good thing. At the very least, the relationship between the Witch Clan and the Heavenly Court could be eased, and they would receive a lot of support from the Heavenly Court, especially from Donghua, the Heavenly Emperor.

After all, it was his own son who controlled the Witch Clan and the Netherworld.

Donghua was furious and embarrassed when he saw the two people staring at him so brazenly.

In his right hand, the Great Dao Power and the Heavenly Dao Power condensed, and with a wave of his hand, he directly sent Chang Xi back to Moon Star, instantly sealing her within Moon Star.

Looking up at Xing Tian, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes was anything but simple-minded.

"Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable, please have mercy! This is what the Ancestor Witch told me to say. She said: 'Now that I am about to die, you won't even agree to do such a small thing for me. What kind of affection can we have? I just want to give you a child so I can see if your heart, Donghua, is truly black. After you attain enlightenment, do you still have any feelings? Will you still fight for your son's power?'"

Xing Tian's words only fueled Donghua's uncontrollable rage. What affection could there be between him and Houtu? It was nothing more than mutual exploitation; what feelings could there be?

Ignoring Xing Tian's pleas for mercy, he waved his hand, and in an instant, the Heavenly Dao Power gathered, and the power of spacetime appeared in the hall, striking Xing Tian with a palm.

Xing Tian's powerful physical strength was like paper before this palm strike, instantly suppressed and then sent tumbling.

Descending from the Heaven Realm, traversing endless time and space, they were directly thrown into the Netherworld Earth Realm, then continued their descent, crashing headfirst into the Netherworld earth, leaving only their feet outside.

Houtu, who was in the main hall, chuckled softly upon seeing this scene, and then said to Xuan Ming, "Let's go, let's go to the Blood Sea and meet this Ancestor Minghe, and see how much strength he has after breaking through to the peak!"

In the Blood Sea, various forces arrived with gifts to congratulate Ancestor Minghe on breaking through to the Peak Quasi-Saint. After all, this period of time is quite sensitive, as humanity is rising, and the attitudes of Ancestor Minghe and the Asura Race are very important.

A Styx Minghe the Peak Quasi-Saint, coupled with the powerful Asura Race, constitutes an immense force vying for the Human Dao Destiny and Fortune.

That's why various forces are taking this opportunity to test Minghe's attitude and see if Minghe will participate in this humanitarian struggle.

At this moment, various forces gathered in the Youlian Hall, mostly from the myriad races.

"..."

"The Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, the Demon Saint Bai Ze, has arrived!"

"Lord of the Northern Darkness, Demon Master Kunpeng has arrived!"

"Zhen Yuanzi, the Zhen Yuanzi of the Ancestor of Earth Immortals of Wuzhuang Temple, has arrived!"

"Ancestor Hong Yun of Huoyun Cave has arrived!"

Upon their arrival, Minghe personally went out to greet them.

"Welcome, fellow Daoists! Minghe is deeply grateful. Please come in!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the group went straight into the hall and took their seats.

At this moment, almost all the forces had arrived, and just then, a phoenix's cry was heard outside the hall.

"The Fairy Golden Phoenix the Taisu Heaven Wa Huang Palace has arrived!"

As this sound rang out, Minghe pondered for a moment before going out to greet them. After all, the visitor was Saint Disciple, representing the Saint, and moreover, the visitor was a petty disciple of Nuwa.

After being slapped on the head Nuwa Minghe last time, Styx never dared to provoke Nuwa again; that woman's heart was truly petty.

"Welcome, Fairy Golden Phoenix! How is Empress Nuwa doing these days?" Minghe said with a smile as he stepped out.

Jin Feng didn't stand on ceremony. She respectfully bowed to Minghe and said, "Greetings, Ancestor. Her Majesty specially ordered me to come and congratulate you on your great progress in cultivation!"

Minghe smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Please come in, fairy!"

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone sighed. When had such a scene ever appeared in the Primordial Wilderness? A Great Powers the Peak Quasi-Saint was actually treating a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal with great courtesy.

The Primordial Wilderness world has truly changed!

"Grand Master Xuandu of the Kunlun Mountain Sect has arrived!"

"The Antarctic Daoist of the Chan Teachings from Kunlun Mountain has arrived!"

"Daoist Duobao of the Kunlun Mountain Interception Sect has arrived!"

"The Yaoshi of the Western Region Buddhist Teachings has arrived!"

With the arrival of the Jin Feng, all the disciples of the Saint came. Antarctica led several Golden Immortal of the Chan Teachings, Duobao led a group of personal disciples of the Interception Sect, Yaoshi led a group of disciples from the Western Region.

The Ancestor Minghe once again came out to welcome them. His attitude wasn't exactly warm, but he still gave them plenty of face. After all, it was the first time in the Primordial Wilderness that a Peak Quasi-Saint Great Powers had welcomed a few Grand Unity juniors.

"The Great Emperor of the Easternmost Heavenly Court, the Eastern Pole Wonderful Brightness Azure Flower Great Emperor, and the Fate Heavenly Venerate have arrived!"

As the voice faded, the Great Commander of Fate entered with Qing Xuan and Yuan Zhen.

Qing Xuan and Yuan Zhen Donghua's personal disciples. This trip is to broaden their horizons and prepare them for breaking through to the Grand Unity realm.

This time, the Ancestor Minghe personally came out to greet them, treating them with the same attitude he showed to Kunpeng, Zhen Yuanzi, and the others.

After all, given his status Great Commander of Fate of Fate, even if his cultivation level wasn't high enough, Minghe wouldn't dare to be negligent.

"Welcome, Great Emperor Qinghua! Your presence is an honor to our humble abode!"

The Great Commander of Fate maintained a composed and respectful demeanor, speaking softly, "Greetings, Minghe Styx. I have heard that you have achieved the pinnacle of your cultivation, and the Great Heavenly Venerate Venerable has specially dispatched me to offer my congratulations!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Great Heavenly Venerate. Please come inside, Fate Heavenly Venerate!"

With the Great Commander of Fate seated, the banquet officially began!
