"So you're saying those Sages actually wanted to use us?"

"Not use us—they wanted us to directly replace the Witch Clan!!"

Yuanshi and Primordial Qilin exchanged a glance, the fury in their eyes utterly undisguised.

"It's good that you understand."

"Therefore, I want to pay the Witch Clan a visit!!"

They had already experienced the might of an Immeasurable Tribulation.

Back then, Ancestral Dragon had utterly disdained any so-called Immeasurable Tribulation.

Yet in the end, he had still met his defeat at the hands of that tribulation.

Because of it, he had even been locked away for countless yuanhui.

If nothing unexpected had happened, he would have remained imprisoned until death.

Then the tribulation would have dispersed on its own!!

Fortunately, the Witch Clan's changes had altered heaven and earth.

That was why they had been able to reappear.

Yuan Feng advocated dying first and being reborn afterward.

Primordial Qilin was said to carry auspiciousness upon him, turning danger into fortune.

Ancestral Dragon's specialty, however, was closer to divining the Heavenly Secrets.

Thus, during the time since his return, he had already gained a rough understanding of the current situation in the Primordial World.

Afterward, they discussed how to deal with the matters concerning the Demon Court.

Demon Court!!

"Fuxi, you want us to go and break open that place?"

"Do you really take us for fools?"

"That is where ancient Fierce Beasts are imprisoned. Though they may be considered our ancestors as well."

"But if we release them, will this Heavenly Court still belong to us?"

Tai Yi unleashed a string of curses.

Not long ago, Fuxi had brought them two pieces of news.

First, the Sages would no longer stop them from descending upon the Primordial Wilderness to seize territory.

Second, there were experts in the Primordial Wilderness powerful enough to threaten the lives of the two brothers.

Therefore, Nuwa had Fuxi bring them a plan: go to the Ferocious Beast Lands, use the Chaos Bell to strike open the River of Time, and release them.

"Second Brother, we should still take precautions."

Upon the Primordial Wilderness lay a blood feud as deep as the sea that had to be repaid.

Had the Heavenly Dao's Hongjun not issued a decree, Di Jun would have led the Demon Court to punch straight through the Primordial Wilderness long ago.

Unfortunately, in the blink of an eye, several thousand more years had passed.

His Little Golden Crows had also grown considerably.

Yet he had never found an opportunity to avenge his sons.

It was only because the eyes of the Sages had remained fixed tightly upon the Demon Court.

Nuwa, that useless woman.

He had no idea what she was even good for.

She only knew how to endlessly demand merit, yet she was powerless against the Sages' restraints.

Di Jun had long been dissatisfied.

Especially after losing the Demon-Summoning Banner, his dissatisfaction had reached its peak.

That was why he could hardly wait to contend for supremacy over the Primordial Wilderness.

So long as he obtained enough merit, even if he became a Merit Saint like Nuwa, he would absolutely be able to lead the Demon Race to new heights.

How could he be like Nuwa, that ingrate who ate from one's bowl while smashing one's pot?

"Big Brother, you are still being too cautious."

"We have spent less than a hundred years, yet the four great forces of the Primordial Wilderness have already been beaten back by us step by step."

"At this rate, in another thousand years or so, the Primordial Wilderness will be ours."

They had coveted the Primordial Wilderness for far too long, and even their Cosmic Starry Sky Grand Formation was nearly complete.

That was Tai Yi's true confidence.

Unfortunately, they could not use this thing against Nuwa. After all, the three thousand demon gods were all listed on the Demon-Summoning Banner.

Mount Buzhou.

Pangu Hall!!!

"Even Pangu's skull is nothing special!!"

Ancestral Dragon carried his Heavenly Secret Mirror.

Using a supreme secret art, he had actually passed through Mount Buzhou and entered Pangu Hall.

Along the way, he saw the Thirty-Six Heavens.

He also saw countless Great Witches of the Witch Clan.

Among them were twelve brutish men, who were likely the Twelve Ancestor Witches.

Though their cultivation techniques were exquisite, they themselves looked rough and crude.

Over these past several decades, Ancestral Dragon had been like an old master.

As he observed the Witch Clan's conduct and daily lives, he clicked his tongue and offered commentary.

Simply because—

He truly could not understand how a race built like hulking brutes, who only knew how to solve problems with their muscles—

A race whose brains were practically tucked into their waistbands—

Could make the Sages suffer losses and be overlooked by the Demon Court.

"This Pangu Hall is quite excellent. How had I never discovered the good things Pangu left behind before?"

"Should I claim this place for myself and make it the foundation for my Dragon Clan's resurgence?"

Just as Ancestral Dragon was feeling smug, Dijiang, hidden in the shadows, received the system's reward.

[Ding! Ancestral Dragon intends to probe the Witch Clan's true strength!!] [Choice One: Form an alliance with Ancestral Dragon. Reward: ten Innate Spiritual Treasures!] [Choice Two: Capture Ancestral Dragon. Reward: one strand of Primordial Purple Qi.] [Choice Three: Confuse Ancestral Dragon. For every ten years of confusion, reward: one Law of Illusion.]

Thirty years ago.

Ancestral Dragon had sneaked into Pangu Hall.

At the time, Dijiang had truly been shocked.

Even Sage Realm Zhunti had attacked outside the doors for three years without managing to open Pangu Hall.

But what about Ancestral Dragon?

He had actually slipped into Pangu Hall through his own strength alone.

If Dijiang had not already refined Pangu Hall—

And possessed malicious intent detection, Seamless Awareness—

As well as the third ability, Universal Spirit Communion—

Ancestral Dragon truly might have deceived him and gotten away with it.

Universal Spirit Communion encompassed everything, from heaven and earth down to a single speck of dust.

Ancestral Dragon's methods were exceedingly miraculous. He could evade heaven and earth, yet he had overlooked becoming one with the light and dust.

He dared to probe the Witch Clan's intelligence.

Whether he was Ancestral Dragon or the protagonist of the Dragon-Han Calamity—

Just as Dijiang was preparing to beat him to death completely, the system mission arrived.

Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Naturally, the more, the better.

Had he not seen how Zhunti detonated an Acquired Supreme Treasure and unleashed unimaginable power?

If Innate Spiritual Treasures could be used as explosive treasures, which Sage Realm expert could withstand them?

As for Primordial Purple Qi, it was not worth mentioning.

After all, the Witch Clan now walked the path of Proving the Dao Through Force. They cultivated the Power of Law and had no need whatsoever for Primordial Purple Qi.

"Each time, I will choose the third option."

Though the Chaos Pearl contained three thousand Laws—

Its supply to the Law of Strength was still too slow.

If he could obtain ready-made ones, the Law of Strength would grow even faster.

Therefore—

Dijiang directly chose the third option.

Over the past thirty years—

He had respectively gained the Law of Deception, the Law of the Unknown, and now the Law of Illusion.

"Eh, what is going on?"

Just as Dijiang obtained another law, Ancestral Dragon seemed to finally notice something was wrong.

Throughout those thirty years, everything he had seen had gone far too smoothly.

So smoothly that, belatedly, it began to feel false.

"Worthy of being the protagonist of the Dragon-Han Calamity. He noticed the clues in merely thirty years."

"These three Laws came from you, so they are perfect to use on you!!"

The Law of Deception, the Law of the Unknown, and the Law of Illusion.

Like three intertwining lines, they spread directly throughout all of Pangu Hall.

Because of the Law of Strength, the power of these three Laws was amplified dozens of times.

Combined with Pangu Hall's Universal Spirit Communion ability, the three Laws unfolded.
