Laying Out the Witch-Demon Tribulation, the Great Trend Could Not Be Reversed
In the Purple Heaven Palace, after Hongjun's words, the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti, and others gradually gained a clearer understanding.
First of all, Ling Xiao is not scary. As long as they stick together or don't fight in the Chaos, their chances of winning are too high, and they can deal with him easily.
If all else fails, there's still the Immortal Execution Sword Formation.
Secondly, the will of Heavenly Dao allowed the Wu and Demon and Yao races to get back on track and pass away peacefully, able to go about their business as usual.
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. If you have no further questions, you may leave," Hongjun said calmly. He had already given his instructions, and there was nothing more to say.
Upon hearing this, the six sages bowed in unison and said, "This disciple takes his leave!"
The Three Pure Ones left Purple Heaven Palace and temporarily returned to the Primordial World.
East Kunlun.
"The Dao Ancestor said that Ling Xiao was severely injured at his hands and only managed to escape. He probably won't be able to cause trouble for a while."
Laozi Tzu spoke calmly. He was speaking before Yuanshi was reborn, and he felt it necessary to inform him.
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi showed a hint of surprise and a smile, his eyes flickered, and he said.
"It's best you're not dead. Such a deep-seated hatred should be avenged by me personally!"
He made a startling statement, a defiant look appearing between his brows.
Tongtian was shocked and immediately asked, "Second Brother, are you alright?"
This was said out of concern, because Tongtian felt that Yuanshi really acting strangely, even uttering such nonsense.
But to Yuanshi, it was a different story. He felt it was a mockery and immediately looked at Tongtian with displeasure.
"Third Brother, what do you mean by that? I'm good, I couldn't be better."
"Why would you utter such nonsensical words if there's nothing wrong?" Tongtian retorted, completely oblivious to the concept of beating around the bush.
In his view, this was utter nonsense. You, Yuanshi, were easily killed without even scratching Ling Xiao's skin, yet you say you want to take revenge yourself.
Do you intend to wear them down to death by endless resurrections?
"Tongtian! Do you think I'm spouting nonsense?" Yuanshi was somewhat angry. Had his prestige declined so quickly?
He only died once, yet Tongtian dares to question him and start talking back!
Tongtian shrugged and didn't say anything, but his meaning was clear.
Yuanshi, enraged, laughed instead and revealed his scheme, no longer hiding it.
"Our teacher said that the will of Heavenly Dao is unchangeable, and the Wu and Demon and demon races are destined to perish."
"Don't forget, Di Jun and Tai Yi are the protagonists of the Tribulation. When the Wu and Demon and Demon races reach their end and everything settles down, that will be their death day!"
"At that time, Ling Xiao will definitely not be able to resist making a move. As long as he shows up, the three of us brothers will join forces, and there will even be Jieyin and Zhun Ti. In that case, wouldn't we be able to kill him?"
These words startled both Laozi and Tongtian, who were greatly surprised.
"You mean, by taking advantage of the destruction of the Wu and Demon races and the Di Jun and Tai Yi, you're forcing Ling Xiao to enter the Primordial World!?"
Laozi looked at his second brother, Yuanshi, with an expression of utter astonishment. He had to admit, this idea was indeed quite something.
"Once Ling Xiao enters the Primordial World, the advantage of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal will naturally disappear."
"There's not even a need to set up an array. With your magic power, Brother, you could easily take down Ling Xiao." Yuanshi said eloquently, his words flowing smoothly and logically, while also praising Laozi in the process.
Upon hearing this, Laozi waved his hand, smiled modestly, and outwardly accepted it, but inwardly he was secretly pleased and pleased. Since the matter had been brought up to this point, he naturally had to express his gratitude.
"What my second brother says makes sense; this is indeed a good idea."
"As long as we can force Ling Xiao into the Primordial World, with our magical power, we can easily do so."
Laozi Tzu chuckled and said calmly, "They have six Sages on their side, plus the formation. Let alone Ling Xiao himself, even if they add the saintly Di Jun and Tai Yi, there's no reason for them to lose."
"The most urgent task is to incite the Wu and Demon races to fight as soon as possible, thus depleting their fortunes. Only when the time is right can we take decisive action."
He continued, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Tongtian hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although the Witch Clan has lost three Ancestral Witch, their power is still unmatched by the Demon Clan."
"If a real war breaks out, it will only result in the Witch Clan becoming dominant; it's unlikely that they will wear each other down."
As soon as the words fell, Laozi and Yuanshi were both stunned and pondered. This was indeed a problem. If it were allowed to develop unchecked, the Witch Clan would eventually evolve back to what it was in the past, dominating the Primordial World and invincible.
At that time, the fortune of the Witch Clan will not only not weaken, but will increase infinitely, and unexpected changes may even occur.
Ultimately, it's because the demon race is too weak.
"Why don't we try to force Di Jun and Tai Yi to step forward? That way, the strength of both sides will be roughly equal," Yuanshi.
"This idea is probably not advisable. If Di Jun and Tai Yi were willing to step forward, they would have done so already. Moreover, doing so might attract Ling Xiao's attention and prompt him to take precautions."
Laozi Tzu spoke solemnly, his mind considering all possibilities.
"We need to find a way to strengthen the demon race..."
"It's strange, though. Recently, the Wu and Demon and Demon races have been making a lot of noise, but they haven't shown any intention of making a move. It seems they're waiting, or perhaps they're afraid of something?" Tongtian said casually, somewhat puzzled.
He hadn't paid attention before and only recently discovered it. Every time he thought the Wu and Demon and Demon races were about to make a move, they just wouldn't move, frantically hovering on the edge of battle, constantly testing the waters, which made Tongtian, an outsider, extremely anxious.
"Regardless of the circumstances, the Wu and Demon and Demon races must be destroyed. Let me deduce the solution and find a way to break it."
"Now that Ling Xiao has been severely injured by the teacher, let's take this opportunity to plan everything."
Yuanshi's expression turned cold, his eyes flashed, and everything before him was changing, the ultimate truth of heaven and earth becoming crystal clear.
Endless Chaos.
Ling Xiao sat cross-legged inside the Chaos Bead, his long hair flowing freely, each strand sparkling. His face was handsome yet arrogant, making him exceptionally outstanding. He was like a creator god surrounded by chains of order, possessing supreme power to change the world.
"Indeed, I gained considerable insights from this battle, and some of my understanding of the laws has improved..."
Ling Xiao murmured to himself, his pupils shimmering with auspicious light and flashing with astonishing power.
Although they are not yet a match for Hongjun, who has reached the Dao, escaping is not a problem. Moreover, Hongjun seems to have reservations and dares not pursue them too deeply in the Chaos.
The greatest gain from this trip was naturally the essence and blood of the Sage.
With a thought, Ling Xiao summoned two clumps of blood, shimmering with an astonishing luster, which floated before him.
The flowing divine light resembled two clusters of celestial crystal, radiating terrifying power. If fully released, it could Destruction the entire world—an unimaginable power.
Conversely, this is also a rare and precious treasure.
