"First, let's reclaim our dojo, then we'll make further plans."

Laozi said this, his eyes showing shrewdness.

"If the Twelve Ancestral Witches don't make a move after we take back our dojo, it means they're scared. Then we'll attack their ancestral land!"

"Good! Let's do that!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they received the unanimous approval of Yuanshi and Tongtian.

Thinking of avenging past grievances, they couldn't help but laugh heartily.

Immediately, they lingered no longer, rose, and rushed towards East Kunlun, Mount Buzhou.

Since being taken by the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Three Pure Ones' dojo on East Kunlun had been guarded by two Great Witches.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches did this with a purpose.

There was a certain element of enticement.

They wanted to lure the Three Pure Ones to reclaim their dojo, and then the Twelve Ancestral Witches would descend together and kill the Three Pure Ones completely.

This was much easier than searching for the Three Pure Ones all over the world.

However, the Three Pure Ones were not fools. Without absolute strength, they had never considered reclaiming their dojo.

But now, things were different.

On this day.

Above East Kunlun, three terrifying auras suddenly descended. The Great Witches guarding the place were startled and stood up abruptly.

"Three Pure Ones, how dare you return!?" the Great Witch shouted sternly, showing great courage.

"A dog guarding the mountain dares to bark madly at us!" Yuanshi's gaze shifted, shooting out two beams of destructive light that directly melted the two Great Witches, annihilating them completely.

Immediately after, he raised his hand to clear the area, eliminating a group of Witch soldiers.

Returning to their long-lost dojo, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian couldn't help but feel satisfied, sighing with emotion, feeling that their entire demeanor had been elevated.

This was a sign of rising fortune, as this place was where they were born, holding great significance.

"Now, let's see if those pathetic creatures dare to come!" Yuanshi said with a cold laugh, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.

"The Twelve Ancestral Witches might not know that we've broken through. If they really come, we'll give them a surprise."

Laozi said with a chuckle, sitting cross-legged on a futon, meditating.

"We can't be careless. If the Twelve Ancestral Witches have also broken through to the Quasi-Sage realm, then we'll be in trouble," Tongtian said with a shrug, half-jokingly.

As soon as he said this, he was immediately opposed by Yuanshi.

"Impossible. Those incomplete congenital barbarians won't break through so easily. Even if one or two break through, we won't fear them at all."

"In the past, in the same realm, they had the advantage of numbers. Otherwise, how could they have been our opponents."

Yuanshi showed disdain, never looking down on the Twelve Ancestral Witches at any time.

In his eyes, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were no different from those born from wetness and eggs, or those covered in fur and scales.

Tongtian nodded, not refuting him. His second brother was always so extreme. He wanted to say something different, but he was afraid of upsetting him, so he simply didn't say anything.

"They're here!"

At this moment, Laozi suddenly stood up and said with a solemn expression.

The Witch Clan was already very close to this place, so it wouldn't take long for the Twelve Ancestral Witches to arrive.

"Good that they've come!"

Yuanshi's face lit up with joy, eager to fight, revenge was within sight.

A short while later.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the entire mountain range trembled slightly. The divine and demonic bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Witches had already surrounded Mount Buzhou.

The surging Sha Qi instantly changed the color of this world.

Gales howled, the sky and earth darkened, and various laws surged.

"Three Pure Ones, we spared your lives in the past. I didn't expect you to come back to die today!" Dijiang said with a cold laugh.

Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian walked out of the dojo, walked into the void as if no one else was there, looking very calm.

"Heh heh, you think you're worthy? Pitiful creatures with incomplete congenital bodies, still living in the past?"

Yuanshi's opening was a critical hit, filled with extreme mockery. As soon as he said this, the smiles on the faces of the Twelve Ancestral Witches disappeared, leaving only deep killing intent.

After ten thousand years, Yuanshi's mouth was still as foul as ever!

"Yuanshi, I will tear you to shreds with my own hands later and make you regret saying those words!"

Xuanming said coldly. Rain began to fall from the sky, which then turned into ice. Plants withered, and the land became desolate.

"I'd like to see what you've learned in the Purple Heaven Palace to dare to be so arrogant."

Dijiang's gaze turned cold. He no longer hid his Quasi-Sage cultivation, and the power of laws shattered the void.

"Dijiang, have you already attained the Quasi-Sage realm?"

Laozi's expression remained calm, showing no excessive surprise. As the eldest of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, it would be unreasonable if even Dijiang could not break through to the Quasi-Sage realm.

They feared nothing from a single Quasi-Sage; at the same level of cultivation, he believed himself inferior to no one.

"Heh, if even the three of you shameless ones could break through, why wouldn't I?" Dijiang sneered.

"You knew we had attained the Quasi-Sage realm?" The expressions of the Three Pure Ones shifted, gradually turning grave. If the Twelve Ancestral Witches dared to come despite knowing they had broken through, what did that imply?

"Given your cautious nature, how would you dare return for revenge if you hadn't broken through?" Dijiang said indifferently, no longer intending to feign ignorance.

"Stop putting on an act, show your cultivation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Three Pure Ones changed drastically. The next moment, they felt several vast auras permeate the air, shaking the heavens and the earth.

The momentum radiating from Zhu Jiuyin, Xuanming, and Jumang shifted instantly, as they had already stepped into the Quasi-Sage realm. (The Twelve Ancestral Witches cultivate the power of physical laws, which can also be called the Golden Immortal of the Origin.)

"Four Quasi-Sages!?" The Three Pure Ones' faces turned ugly; they finally understood why the Twelve Ancestral Witches dared to come.

"Scared now? It's already too late!"

Dijiang let out a long roar that shook the stars from the sky. The Twelve Ancestral Witches moved in unison, attacking Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian.

The Three Pure Ones instantly summoned their Dharma treasures, their bodies shielded by immortal light. They did not meet the force head-on, but instead combined their efforts to strike at the Ancestral Witches who had not yet reached the Quasi-Sage realm.

"You three shameless beasts! Pay with your lives!" Zhu Jiuyin twisted time, raising his hand to unleash the Great Divine Ability of Time and Years against the Three Pure Ones.

Although Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were at a disadvantage, they were not as passive as they had been the first time. Their strategy was simple: catch the weakest Ancestral Witches first and kill as many as they could.

Because Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and the other four Quasi-Sage Ancestral Witches had to protect the remaining weaker ones, they truly could not do much against the Three Pure Ones for the time being.

On the Sun Star, Ling Xiao was awakened by the aura of the battle. Looking toward the direction of Mount Buzhou, he immediately laughed.

"Yo! Are the Three Pure Ones here to act as sparring partners again?"

During the last battle between the Three Pure Ones and the Ancestral Witches, he had observed for a long time and gained insights into the Law of Thunder.

He had not expected them to be fighting again so soon.

"How wonderful."

Ling Xiao said with a smile, his eyes flickering as he expanded his divine sense to perceive the power of the laws radiating from the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

At the same time, he did not forget to consume the Chaos Bead.

Practical combat combined with theory.

A sudden thought occurred to him.

"What would happen if I were to master all the laws of the Twelve Ancestral Witches?"
