Boom...
At the foot of Buzhou Mountain, a terrifying golden light suddenly shot straight into the sky.
Roar—
Faintly, dragons frolicked and phoenixes danced.
The entire Primordial World was stirred.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
Endless Great Powers projected their avatars in an instant, and even Nuwa the Sage, beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, changed expression drastically.
Looking over, they saw a vast multitude of the Human Race gathered at the base of Buzhou Mountain.
In that moment, Nuwa's eyes burned with envy.
"Damn it, such strong destiny."
In a hundred years, the Human Race had migrated and multiplied continuously.
They had already reached several hundred thousand.
Among them were the elderly, children, and many with swollen bellies.
But the hundred thousand Innate Humans remained unchanged, still as youthful as ever.
No wonder the Heavenly Dao had schemed to wipe out the hundred thousand Innate Humans.
The Human Race had no Innate Supreme Treasure, but they possessed the hundred thousand Innate Humans forged from Nine Heavens Soil, who inherently suppressed and stabilized the Human Race Destiny.
If the hundred thousand Innate Humans did not die, even the Human Race's supreme treasure, the Kongtong Seal, would have to step aside.
Thus, the hundred thousand Innate Humans had to die, or else pledge themselves to a Sage's tutelage.
Above the heads of several hundred thousand humans, golden light illuminated the entire Primordial World.
"This... such powerful destiny. Why has the Human Race Destiny suddenly surged so high?"
"My heavens, this destiny has directly surpassed the Witch Race and even overpowered the Demon Race—and the Demon Race has a Sage backing them!"
"No, look quickly! The Witch Race's destiny is also churning, directly overtaking the Demon Race. This... this... this..."
Countless Great Powers watched in shock.
Inside the Ancestor Witch Divine Hall, the Twelve Ancestor Witches were recuperating, when suddenly they felt a force rush in.
Then, they sensed their depleted bodies, as if after a long drought, finally receiving rain.
The power that had vanished for so long returned to their bodies once more.
"What's happening?"
"My power is back."
"Big Brother, you've grown younger."
"Is that so?"
The Twelve Ancestor Witches were overjoyed, but then they suddenly felt the earth shake and mountains tremble.
"What's going on? Could the Demon Race be attacking again?"
"Let's go out and see."
They ran out one by one, only to be utterly stunned:
"The Human Race has reached Buzhou Mountain this quickly? Hasn't it been less than a hundred years?"
Staring at the dense sea of humans before them, the Witch Race was dumbfounded. When the Human Race had begun their great migration, the Witch Race had offered to help, but Chu Yan had refused every time.
He claimed it was a trial, so the Witch Race had let it go.
They never imagined that in just a hundred years, the Human Race would have grown so formidable.
Likewise, in the Demon Heavenly Court, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi watched this scene and were so furious they could cry.
"Damn Human Race, I hate you—!"
In the Demon Heavenly Court, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi wished they could slaughter every last human on the spot.
The Human Race Destiny suppressed the Demon Race, and the Witch Race's destiny had also skyrocketed because of the humans.
How could they endure this?
"The Human Race must die. We have to find a way to wipe them out, or else our Demon Race is doomed."
Just as everyone was stunned, Taiqing suddenly felt a stir in his heart.
"The opportunity has come. It is time for me to attain Sagehood."
Then he instantly transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight toward Buzhou Mountain.
At the same time, Hongjun's face also changed drastically:
"The Human Race's destiny is too strong, surpassing both the Witch and Demon races at once. Not good—the protagonists of the Witch-Monster Tribulation are about to shift. Heavenly Dao, lend me your strength—!"
The Jade Plate of Creation instantly transformed into the power of law, joining forces with the Heavenly Dao's might to charge into the River of Destiny and suppress it.
If the Human Race's destiny truly rose, the Witch-Monster Tribulation would likely become the Human Race allying with the Witch Race to fight the Demon Race.
In the end, the Demon Race would be destroyed, while the Witch Race and Human Race would flourish.
The result would be not only failing to erode Pangu's Will and sever the Karma of Pangu, but actually allowing Pangu to be reborn.
If that really happened, all of the Heavenly Dao's schemes would come to nothing.
Likewise, Hongjun also saw the cause through the River of Destiny.
"So that's it. The great migration of the Human Race is complete. All this destiny should have been Nuwa's. What a waste."
Originally, after Nuwa created humanity, if she had guarded them for a thousand years, the Human Race's destiny would have become hers.
Then Taiqing taught and civilized the Human Race, seizing their destiny, and even founded the Human Religion, completely sealing the Human Race's destiny.
After that, in one day the Five Saints thoroughly suppressed the Human Race's destiny.
Thus, the Human Race was dragged entirely into the abyss.
Finally, in the Investiture of the Gods War, it would all be concluded—the Human Emperor would become the Son of Heaven, and from then on the Humanity Dao would be reduced to a puppet of the Heavenly Dao.
Yet at this moment, because of Chu Yan, everything had changed.
Rumble...
Within the golden River of Destiny, Hongjun poured in every ounce of his strength to suppress it wildly.
The Heavenly Dao's laws also erupted with full force.
"Damn it, why is it so hard to make this Human Race a Fixed Number?"
Hongjun felt the difficulty. It was simply impossible to turn the Human Race into a Fixed Number all at once.
"Forget it, forget it. I can only stabilize it for now, then slowly work out a plan."
Pfft—
A mouthful of vital blood sprayed onto the Jade Plate of Creation. Then Hongjun directly hurled the Jade Plate of Creation into the River of Destiny.
"Suppress for me—!"
Rumble...
A majestic force pressed down violently, and only then did the River of Destiny stabilize.
This pained Hongjun deeply.
"Truly infuriating to This Seat. To suppress the Human Race's destiny, I was forced to use the Jade Butterfly of Creation to hold it down. Chu Yan, just you wait."
To suppress the Human Race's fate, Hongjun had sacrificed the Jade Plate of Creation.
But it could only stabilize things; it did not turn the Human Race into a Fixed Number.
Rumble...
At the same time, the Human Race's destiny also hit a ceiling.
Pfft—
Chu Yan, however, spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What's going on? The Human Race's destiny is surging—I should be growing stronger, so why is my chest so tight?"
His face changed drastically. Could something have gone wrong again?
Ao—
A Dragon's Roar rang out, and Chu Yan instantly understood.
"Hongjun—!"
Roaring up to the heavens, Chu Yan erupted with boundless killing intent.
How could he not know that Hongjun had suppressed the Human Race's fate?
Rumble...
A colossal golden giant rose from the ground.
"Break for me—!"
Throwing a punch, Chu Yan tried to shatter the barrier and charge into the River of Destiny.
But he returned in vain.
"Damn it. Without a Human Saint, the Humanity Dao cannot emerge. Truly suffocating."
He punched the ground fiercely, and instantly the land for ten thousand li trembled.
At the same time, a figure rapidly approached.
"This Seat, Taiqing, first disciple of the Dao Ancestor, today shall enlighten..."
Nani?
Chu Yan was instantly doused with oil on the fire, immediately going berserk.
"Taiqing, you dare scheme against the Human Race—courting death!"
Chu Yan raged, cutting off Taiqing mid-sentence. At the same time, a palm descended from the heavens, and the terrifying Human Race Destiny erupted in an instant.
One could only see a pitch-black mass pressing down from the sky, slamming straight down.
"Not good."
Taiqing's expression shifted drastically. He had been too excited and momentarily forgotten himself, only now remembering that the Human Race still had Chu Yan. He dodged quickly, but the Human Race Destiny was simply too explosive.
"Boom—."
He was smacked straight to the ground by Chu Yan's palm.
"Chu Yan, stop!"
"Stop your mother's hand."
He had been looking for an outlet for his rage, and now someone had come offering a pillow just in time.
And Chu Yan understood clearly—Taiqing's opportunity to become a Saint had arrived, which meant the Human Religion would soon appear.
Didn't that mean... the arrival of Five Saints in a single day?
Five Saints in one day might seem unrelated to the Human Race on the surface, but in truth, every one of them was connected.
Chu Yan absolutely would not allow the Human Race to be schemed against.
Since that was the case, then...
"Kill Taiqing."
