But all of this was built on the Witch Race's vast numbers.
As for the Witch Race's top experts,
there weren't any at all!
Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches were exceptionally powerful,
and were revered by all, unshakable pillars of the Witch Race,
they weren't quite enough to stand out in the Primordial World as a whole.
In the future, after the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhunti successively became Saints,
their strength would far surpass that of the Twelve Ancestral Witches!
Without becoming a Saint, one was ultimately no more than an ant!
That was an eternal truth of the Primordial World!
What's more, in the future, there would be Hongjun, a Heavenly Dao Sage who looked down upon all living beings and stood as the strongest in the Primordial World!
It could be said that the Witch Race had gained so much territory because it had relied entirely on the advantage of numbers!
If one day the great powers of the Primordial World joined forces to besiege the Witch Race,
the Witch Race would be doomed to face calamity!
Not to mention the ultimate war between the Witch Race and the Demon Race that would break out in the future!
In that war, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, who were only Quasi-Saints, together with the countless Demon Army,
would nearly wipe out the entire Witch Race!
The reason for the Witch Race's tragic fate was that they had no primordial spirits!
If the Twelve Ancestral Witches had primordial spirits, then, given the right opportunity, they could Prove Dao by Force and attain Sainthood.
They wouldn't have died with hatred during the future war, nearly wiping out the entire Witch Race!
It could be said that primordial spirits were irreplaceable for the Witch Race!
And Pangu's Primordial Spirit was the most powerful and heaven-defying of them all.
Even Xiao Ran couldn't help yearning for it.
If he successfully fused with Pangu's Primordial Spirit,
he wouldn't just be able to cultivate all kinds of divine arts and use all manner of heaven-defying treasures.
He could also successfully prove his Dao and break through to Sainthood sooner!
Unable to contain his excitement, Xiao Ran spoke at once. "Instant kill!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully instant-killed Pangu's Primordial Spirit for one yuan!"
After obtaining Pangu's Primordial Spirit,
Xiao Ran didn't hesitate in the slightest.
He immediately chose to fuse with it!
In an instant, golden light flowed throughout his body, and an endless force of primordial spirit surged into his limbs and bones like a vast sea!
At that moment, his spiritual awareness felt crystal clear. Countless profound, unfathomable insights seemed to pour into him all at once.
Pangu's Primordial Spirit, whose might shook the world and awed all living beings, appeared like a Blazing Sun and enveloped Xiao Ran completely.
"Boom!"
In an instant, pain so extreme it pierced to the bone surged over him like a tide.
Large beads of sweat dripped from Xiao Ran's forehead.
He clenched his teeth and began fusing with Pangu's Primordial Spirit, one bit at a time, with unflinching resolve.
No one knew how much time passed.
At last, Xiao Ran opened his deep, bright eyes.
His gaze had become clearer and more lively than before.
It seemed he could see through the past and future of the Primordial World, as well as the River of Time and Space of the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds!
After letting out a long breath, Xiao Ran smiled.
At first, Xiao Ran had thought that fusing with Pangu's Primordial Spirit would only let him cultivate various divine arts,
and refine and use all kinds of heaven-defying treasures.
He hadn't expected the benefits of possessing Pangu's Primordial Spirit to go far beyond that!
His spiritual awareness was countless times clearer than before!
He could not only retrace the past and deduce the future with perfect clarity,
but also understand cultivation techniques and the Dao with not the slightest hindrance!
More importantly, with his peerless Pangu Primordial Spirit,
he could even deduce all kinds of supreme cultivation techniques and Formation Arrays!
Xiao Ran was exhilarated, his heart brimming with joy.
Instant-killing and fusing with Pangu's Primordial Spirit
was undoubtedly the greatest asset of his life!
In the future, proving his Dao and becoming a Saint, then slaughtering the Demon Race,
would be no difficult feat!
But that was for the future.
For now, the most important thing was to improve the Witch Race's strength as quickly as possible.
That way, if they faced another brutal battle,
His people wouldn't die miserably on the battlefield!
After some thought, Xiao Ran decided to start with Formation Arrays.
He had always been fascinated by them.
In the past, he had tried to deduce the Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend.
But that had only been a knockoff version.
It couldn't have been any more crude!
It couldn't display any real power at all!
Now that he had a primordial spirit,
why not take this opportunity to deduce the Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Great Array anew?
That way, as long as the Witch Race could gather twelve people, they could form the array.
The array's power would vary according to the strength of those who formed it!
Once they formed the Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Great Array,
they could unleash power ten times greater than before!
If they faced the Demon Race again in the future,
the millions of Witch Army would only need to form countless Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Great Arrays.
They would be able to win with ease and wipe out the entire Demon Army effortlessly!
With this in mind, Xiao Ran, his thoughts in turmoil, went to the Witch Race's Altar.
He casually summoned twelve members of his people.
Then he began teaching them how to cultivate the Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Formation!
Xiao Ran had lost count of how many times he had failed.
He had also lost track of how many times the sun had risen and set.
After millions of experiments and countless days and nights of study,
Xiao Ran had finally succeeded in deducing a simplified version of the Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Great Array!
Beaming with joy, Xiao Ran hurried to the Pangu Temple.
He couldn't wait to report such thrilling news to the Ancestor Witches.
Pangu Temple.
After the Twelve Ancestral Witches solemnly listened to Xiao Ran,
they all wore expressions of disbelief.
The Twelve Heavenly God-Fiend Great Array was the Witch Race's most heaven-defying protective Formation Array.
