The Demon Court was shaken! Did Dao Ancestor Hongjun come?

The Thirty-three Heavens, Demon Court.

Inside Lingxiao Palace, the splendor remained as ever, but the atmosphere was so heavy it felt like water could drip from it.

Di Jun sat high on the imperial throne, his expression calm, the golden flames flickering in his eyes revealing his inner turmoil.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi stood beside him, the phantom image of the Chaos Bell faintly visible behind him, emitting a heart-palpitating fluctuation.

A flash of white light streaked across, and Bai Ze's figure appeared in the center of the hall.

Before he could even fully steady himself, he strode forward, bowed, and saluted:

"Your Majesty! Eastern Emperor Your Majesty!"

His voice carried urgency, even a hint of trembling he himself hadn't noticed.

Di Jun's gaze immediately fell upon Bai Ze.

"How is it?"

The two words were uttered with unquestionable majesty.

Bai Ze dared not delay, and flicked his sleeve.

A light flashed, and the Primordial Unity Witch General, still in a comatose state, was carefully placed by him on the smooth floor.

At the same time, he held up the White Jade Pure Bottle with both hands, the blood of the Human Race within it rippling slightly.

"Your Majesty, your subject has, as ordered, captured one Primordial Unity Witch General and retrieved the vital blood of one hundred humans."

Bai Ze reported quickly. Then, he took a deep breath, an unprecedented solemnity appearing on his face.

"On the way back, your subject, emboldened, used a drop of human blood to... conduct a small test on that Witch General."

As soon as these words were spoken, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's gazes locked onto Bai Ze.

"The result?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi pressed with a deep voice.

Bai Ze looked up, his eyes still carrying a look of disbelief, his voice dry:

"This human blood... actually... actually has a restraining effect on the Witch Clan's Physical Body!"

"Although it was only for an instant, it is indeed true!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Di Jun suddenly stood up!

The Solar True Fire swirling around his body surged several feet high!

The Emperor's might spread uncontrollably, and the entire Lingxiao Palace trembled slightly!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's pupils also contracted sharply. The fingers holding the Chaos Bell tightened abruptly, and the bell body emitted a low hum.

"Is this true?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's voice carried an unprecedented sternness.

The Human Race?

That race created by Saintess Nuwa, born weak.

A race struggling to survive among the myriad races of the Great Wilderness, almost considered as fodder for ants?

Their blood... could actually restrain the Witch Clan?

How was this possible!

What was the origin of the Witch Clan?

They were formed from the essence blood of Great God Pangu, inheriting Pangu's legacy. Their physical bodies were incomparably strong; they did not cultivate the primordial spirit, only the physical body!

The Twelve Ancestral Witches were born from twelve drops of Pangu's essence blood, wielding the laws of heaven and earth, dominating the Great Wilderness, and able to contend with their Demon Race!

Their physical bodies were so strong that even Innate Spiritual Treasures could hardly break them easily!

Apart from the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the other members of the Witch Clan were also nurtured from the Pangu Hall.

Now, Bai Ze actually claimed that the blood of this tiny Human Race could harm the physical bodies the Witch Clan prided themselves on?

This was even more unbelievable than the fall of Ghost Chariot!

Di Jun's chest rose and fell slightly, golden flames flickering wildly in his eyes.

He stared intently at Bai Ze, trying to discern any trace of a lie.

However, there was none.

Only immense certainty.

Di Jun knew very well that Bai Ze was by no means someone who spoke carelessly, nor would he possibly deceive him on such a major matter.

But this matter was too incredible!

"What you say is too astonishing."

Di Jun slowly sat down, his voice low and hoarse.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but it concerns the eternal dominance of my Demon Race, so I must be cautious!"

His gaze shifted to the unconscious Witch General on the ground, then to the seemingly ordinary White Jade Pure Bottle.

"I need to witness it myself."

As the words fell, golden light flashed in Di Jun's eyes, and he nodded slightly to Bai Ze.

"Bai Ze, verify it on the spot."

"Yes!"

Bai Ze responded solemnly.

He understood that words were not enough; only personal observation could thoroughly convince their two majesties.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

Holding the White Jade Pure Bottle, he channeled a trickle of magic power.

A drop of dark red blood slowly floated from the bottle's mouth, suspended in the air.

The blood drop was no bigger than a grain of rice, emitting faint fluctuations of blood and qi. Compared to the vast Demonic Qi in the hall, it was practically dust.

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's gazes were locked onto this drop of blood.

Then, Bai Ze manipulated the blood drop, moving it slowly towards the Primordial Unity Witch General on the ground.

The blood drop gently fell.

It landed on the Witch General's exposed arm.

Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and even Bai Ze, who was casting the spell, held their breath.

The next instant.

"Sss!"

A faint sound rang out!

Where the drop of Human Race blood landed, the Witch General's skin instantly sustained a tiny injury!

Although it only existed for a moment before being forcibly repaired by the Witch General's surging vitality and blood qi, it was enough to prove Bai Ze's words.

The blood of the Human Race truly possessed a natural restraint against the Physical Body of the Witch Clan!

Silence!

A deathly silence enveloped the entire Lingxiao Palace!

All the Demon Gods and Witch Generals standing guard were dumbfounded.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed such an absurd scene!

"Buzz!"

The Solar True Fire around Eastern Emperor Taiyi erupted, and the Chaos Bell rang on its own, shaking the Void!

All doubt vanished from his face, replaced by unparalleled shock, and then ecstatic joy!

"It's real!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's excited voice rang out.

Di Jun slowly rose from his throne again.

All emotion was withdrawn from his face, leaving only an unfathomable coldness.

He strode down the steps, arriving before the Witch General, and looked down at his now fully restored arm.

Then he looked up, at the White Jade Pure Bottle in Bai Ze's hand.

"Hahahaha..."

"So, your weakness lies right here!"

"It lies with the Human Race, whom you, whom we, all considered mere ants and food!"

Di Jun's voice was light, yet carried a chilling intent.

He looked at Bai Ze, his eyes filled with resolute killing intent.

"Bai Ze."

"Your servant is here!" Bai Ze bowed, his heart surging.

"This matter, apart from those in this hall, is strictly forbidden to be leaked!"

Di Jun's voice was icy, carrying an undeniable will.

"Yes!"

"Convey my decree!"

Di Jun's gaze swept across all the Demon Race members in the hall. Every demon who met his cold gaze involuntarily lowered their head, their hearts trembling.

"Secretly gather elites, and blockade the East Sea coast and all major Human Race settlements!"

"At all costs, collect as much Human Race essence blood as possible!"

"Remember, as much as possible!"

He paused slightly, adding, each word containing the weight of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"If you encounter any obstruction, kill without mercy!"

"I, want to use this blood to forge a Supreme Divine Weapon for my Demon Race, one that will annihilate the Witch Clan!"

"Once this weapon is forged, the Witch Clan's Physical Bodies... will all turn to dust!"

"The position of overlord of the Great Wilderness shall belong to my Demon Court!"

Bai Ze and the assembled demons in the hall all knelt in unison, their voices shaking the heavens:

"Your subjects obey your decree!"

"Long live the Demon Race!"

Golden Ao Island.

Immortal mist swirled, spiritual energy surged like a tide.

Surrounded by billions of acres of azure waves, the island's mountains were verdant, and palaces flickered in and out of view amidst the clouds and rosy hues.

Senior Brother Xuandu stepped out of the void, landing on the massive bluestone plaza before Biyou Palace.

Though his heart was anxious, his steps remained steady.

His gaze swept over the palace ahead, which possessed Naturally Formed Dao Charm, and his heart settled slightly.

He strode quickly towards the palace gates.

On either side of the palace gates stood two figures.

On the left was Jinguang Xian, one of the Seven Attendant Immortals.

On the right was Piluxian, one of the Seven Attendant Immortals.

Seeing Senior Brother Xuandu approach, both bowed slightly.

"Senior Brother Xuandu."

Senior Brother Xuandu cupped his hands in return, his tone carrying a hint of imperceptible urgency:

"Junior Brothers, I have an urgent matter to report to Master immediately. Please inform him."

Upon hearing this, Jinguang Xian and Piluxian exchanged a glance, both showing a hint of difficulty on their faces.

Jinguang Xian stepped forward and said with a wry smile:

"Senior Brother Xuandu, at this moment... we may need to wait a moment."

Hearing this, Xuandu's heart sank abruptly.

Could it be that Master is in seclusion?

If that's the case, and we delay, then on the Human Race's side...

He frowned slightly and pressed on:

"Is Master currently in seclusion, comprehending the Great Dao?"

His tone already carried a hint of anxiety.

Seeing his expression, Jinguang Xian knew Xuandu had misunderstood and quickly shook his head.

Then, he lowered his voice, a look of unprecedented reverence on his face:

"It's not that Master is in seclusion."

He paused, his gaze subconsciously drifting to the tightly shut doors of Biyou Palace, his voice growing even softer:

"It's that the Dao Ancestor himself has arrived."

!!!

Upon hearing this, Xuandu's pupils suddenly contracted!

Dao Ancestor Hongjun?

That supreme being who merged with the Heavenly Dao, governs the operation of the Great Wilderness, and stands above all saints?

He has actually come to Biyou Palace at this time?

Xuandu's mind trembled violently, and for a moment, he stood frozen on the spot.
