Primordial Wilderness: I Repeatedly Offered Poisonous Plans! Houtu Urged Me to Stay Calm Author: Heaven Mender
After transmigrating to the Primordial Wilderness and becoming a Lesser Shaman of the Houtu Tribe, Chu Xuan made a stunning debut, repeatedly offering poisonous plans to avoid becoming cannon fodder in the great cataclysm.
Who would have thought those poisonous plans would be so damn effective?
The Demon Clan established the Heavenly Court and united countless races?
Chu Xuan: Establish the Heavenly Tribulation Great Dao and share authority with the Heavenly Court. From now on, all living beings must undergo tribulations!
The Zixiao Palace discriminated against those without a primordial spirit, refusing to let them hear the Dao?
Chu Xuan: Open up the Heavenly Demon Great Dao as a tribulation for primordial spirits. Anyone with a primordial spirit will suffer its calamities!
The Wu-Demon War left countless souls without a place to return to and caused Tribulation Qi to flood the world. They wanted Houtu to create reincarnation?
Chu Xuan: If you don't work hard at cultivation, you'll be brothers in the Myriad Soul Banner.
Chu Xuan: I have a plan that can completely resolve the Wu-Demon Cataclysm!
Houtu: Chu Xuan, calm down first. It hasn't come to that yet.
Establishing the Wu Clan Means Certain Death! (Please Send Flowers and Monthly Tickets)
"Today, I, Di Jun (Eastern Emperor Taiyi), establish the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court here, to rule heaven and earth, complete the order of the Heavenly Dao, and govern the Primordial Wilderness. All the races of the Primordial Wilderness may join. The sea embraces all rivers; greatness lies in inclusiveness!"
"The Demon Clan's Heavenly Court is established!"
Rumble—
Above the Nine Heavens, countless streams of Merit rained down like falling blossoms, shaking the entire Primordial Wilderness and startling who knew how many Great Divine Ability Users.
At the same time, the various races, who had been ready for this, quickly followed suit.
"My Tiger Yao clan hereby announces that we are joining the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court!"
"My Sheep Yao clan hereby announces that we are joining the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court!"
"My Fox Yao clan..."
As the leaders of one clan after another stepped forward to announce their allegiance to the Demon Clan, the Merit above the Nine Heavens surged violently, nearly swelling again.
The Demon Clan's momentum soared.
Vaguely, the entire Primordial Wilderness seemed to see a supreme Heavenly Court towering above the endless Starry Sky.
At this moment, some rejoiced while others seethed with rage.
Beneath Buzhou Mountain, inside Pangu Hall.
The Ancestral Shamans, each towering hundreds of millions of feet tall, watched the scene and flew into a rage.
"How dare they! Di Jun and Tai Yi actually dared to do this!"
"The Heavenly Court, ruling heaven and earth? Who do they think they are!"
"This Primordial Wilderness was left behind by Father God. How could it be occupied by those creatures born from dampness and eggs!"
"That Heavenly Court should have belonged to our Wu Clan! Shameless thieves!!!"
One imposing figure after another rose to their feet, shaken to the core.
Terrifying auras burst from their bodies.
They seemed ready at any moment to storm the Heavenly Court and kill the presumptuous villains in the sky.
Most importantly, the Ancestral Shamans present were no fools. They understood that the other side's establishment of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court had far-reaching consequences.
It had practically turned the balance between the Wu and Demon Clans on its head.
The two clans had already been at odds, with frequent disputes.
The Wu Clan had always regarded itself as the master of the Primordial Wilderness. It was powerful and had a vast population.
The Demon Clan, on the other hand, had been little more than a makeshift outfit assembled by Di Jun and Tai Yi, without much of a foundation.
Even though the two of them were powerful, they couldn't change the overall situation.
So the Wu Clan had never really cared.
But now, those fellows had somehow found a secret place: the Heavenly Court, high above the land. On top of that, they had established it with the stated aim of ruling heaven and earth, earning the Heavenly Dao's recognition and a shower of Merit.
With the Heavenly Dao's endorsement of their legitimacy and the support of the various races, they had formed an unstoppable trend.
The Demon Clan had always been inclusive, allowing anyone to join. But among the major clans with real strength, how many would willingly submit to someone else?
That was different now. The Demon Clan occupied the Heavenly Court and had openly declared its intent to rule heaven and earth. It had even won the Heavenly Dao's recognition.
This established its legitimacy outright, making the myriad races change sides. No one could ignore the title of ruler of heaven and earth.
If the Demon Clan truly united every major clan except the Wu Clan under its laughable banner—
What advantage would the Wu Clan have left?
No matter how strong the Wu Clan was, it still stood above all the other clans for now. But its limited ability to reproduce meant that, in time, it could never rival the combined populations of every race in the Primordial Wilderness.
This was the trend. This was the future!
That was why the Ancestral Shamans were so furious.
"We can't let this continue. If those two really establish an unstoppable trend, then even if we can still overpower the Demon Clan for now, they'll inevitably threaten us in the future!"
"We can't hesitate any longer. We must act at once!"
"We should establish the Wu Clan as well, proclaim our resolve to contend for the world, and intimidate the myriad races!"
As the eldest brother of the Ancestral Shamans, Dijiang spoke first and made the decision.
The other Ancestral Shamans were stunned, but some of them were reluctant.
It wasn't because they refused to obey Dijiang.
The reason was that establishing the Wu Clan was no trivial matter. It meant declaring their ambitions to the Heavenly Dao and seeking its recognition.
Though they had always called themselves the Wu Clan, they had never truly sworn an oath before the Heavenly Dao.
They considered themselves Pangu Orthodox. Why should they need to be recognized by the Heavenly Dao, something born after the fact in the Primordial Wilderness?
Wouldn't that be like admitting they were inferior to it?
Yet the Demon Clan's flourishing momentum now made them hesitate.
They were all beings at the peak of Great Luo. Dijiang, in particular, had already transformed into a Quasi-Saint. How could he fail to see the situation clearly? They simply didn't want to bow their heads and set aside their pride.
Even the usually mild-mannered Houtu Ancestor Wu fell unusually silent.
Dijiang understood what they were thinking.
Truthfully, if he had a choice, he wouldn't want to do this either.
But the Demon Clan had gained the upper hand!
As the Wu Clan's leader and the eldest brother of the Ancestral Shamans, he had to shoulder the clan's future.
Let him be the bad guy!
Dijiang spoke firmly.
"Enough. I've made up my mind!"
"Today, we, the Wu Clan..."
But before Dijiang could finish his declaration establishing the Wu Clan, a voice suddenly rang out.
"I have something to say! I beg Houtu Ancestor Wu, with my very blood, to hear me!"
"This concerns the Demon Clan's establishment of the Heavenly Court—and the life or death of our Wu Clan!"
"I beseech the Ancestor Wu to respond!"
A sudden tremor came from Houtu.
Her blood essence stirred in response to a whispered summons.
Dijiang's words were cut short, and all the Ancestral Shamans turned curious gazes toward Houtu.
Houtu was also taken aback.
She sensed the change within herself.
It was a message from her tribe.
A member of the Wu Clan had offered a sacrifice to her, stirring her True Spirit.
As the kindest and gentlest of the Ancestral Shamans, Houtu cared deeply for the people of her tribe.
That was why she had left them a way to contact her in an emergency. She hadn't expected it to be triggered at this moment.
Houtu and the other Ancestral Shamans turned their gazes toward the whispered summons. Everyone present was at least at the peak of Great Luo, so they could easily follow the message and see who had sent it.
Layer upon layer of space was pierced, and the connection of Karma revealed its source.
