The Congenital Human Race members of the various human tribes raised the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Grand Array, protecting the human tribes within a radius of hundreds of millions of li.

Yet this covered less than half of the entire Human Race.

The Human Race's reproductive ability was simply too terrifying. Human settlements could be found everywhere across the primordial land.

Qing Xuanzi watched the battlefield between the Witch Race and Demon Clan with covetous eyes.

Dijiang led Zhurong and Gonggong in ganging up on Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

Elsewhere, Zhu Jiuyin led Shebishi and Rushou in attacking Dijun.

Qiangliang, Jumang, Tianwu, Xizi, Houtu, and Xuan Ming chased the Ten Great Demon Generals around and gave them a savage beating.

The Ancestral Witches revealed their true forms and unleashed the Martial Dao Divine Powers they had long mastered.

The sight was enough to make one's blood boil.

Take Zhurong, for example. He was practically a man made of fire. With a howl, a volcano roared toward Taiyi, followed by an enormous flaming leg sweeping across the battlefield.

Damn, it was a real flaming leg! A leg on fire! Qing Xuanzi's blood boiled at the sight.

He was only one step away from joining the melee himself.

But he knew he could not intervene under such circumstances. He represented the Human Race and the Humanity Sect.

If he charged in with a howl, the nature of things would immediately change.

Yet someone insisted on dragging him into the mess just as Qing Xuanzi felt an itch in his heart.

With a boom, a bolt of Azure Lightning struck him.

Fortunately, he had already brought out the Twelve-Petal Golden Lotus. Otherwise, that sudden attack would have roasted him alive.

"Kunpeng, you're courting death!"

Qing Xuanzi roared and smashed the Hongmeng Measuring Heaven Ruler forward.

Unfortunately, Kunpeng vanished with a whoosh.

Could he tolerate that? Of course not.

Qing Xuanzi immediately followed Kunpeng's scent and gave chase.

He pursued Kunpeng across the entire primordial land.

Kunpeng was frustrated as well. He had intended to find someone weak and casually exchange a few blows before calling it a day.

That was why he had set his sights on Qing Xuanzi.

Before the battle began, he had requested this assignment from Dijun, taking responsibility for holding Qing Xuanzi back.

But once the battle began, Qing Xuanzi had not intervened as expected.

Kunpeng looked at the twelve enormous Ancestral Witch true forms and swallowed.

They were far too fierce. Better not provoke them, but he could not just stand there doing nothing.

So he used lightning arts and struck Qing Xuanzi.

Yet Qing Xuanzi was outrageously fierce too. The spiritual treasure in his hand made Kunpeng's primordial spirit tremble.

If that thing hit him even once, he would be lucky not to die. At the very least, he would lose a layer of skin.

So he used an escape technique and fled across the entire primordial land.

Who would have thought that Qing Xuanzi's escape technique was no weaker than his?

With a light step, Qing Xuanzi appeared right before him, frightening him into fleeing around like a headless fly.

He did not dare follow any pattern at all.

What made him most miserable was that Qing Xuanzi actually knew the Ancestral Witch true form too.

He regretted it. If he had known Qing Xuanzi would be this difficult to deal with, he would rather have fought those brainless fools.

Kunpeng fled everywhere in frustration.

Qing Xuanzi was equally frustrated in pursuit. Damn it, Kunpeng was practically a fish.

He was slippery as an eel, fleeing about without any pattern, and his escape technique was no worse than Qing Xuanzi's.

After all that wild chasing, Qing Xuanzi had gained nothing.

Qing Xuanzi stopped. He suddenly realized, Why the hell am I chasing him? I need to seize the initiative.

His eyes rolled, and he got an idea.

He turned and smashed the North Sea with his ruler.

Kunpeng had been feeling rather pleased with himself. Heh, no matter how strong you are, you still can't catch me.

Then he suddenly saw Qing Xuanzi swinging his ruler at his lair.

In an instant, Kunpeng felt terrible. He was screwed.

If that strike landed solidly, all his direct subordinates would be finished.

Left with no choice, a palace rose from the North Sea: the Demon Master Palace.

The corner of Qing Xuanzi's mouth curled up slightly. Heh, keep running.

With that thought, he added several more degrees of force to his hand.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Like hammering iron, the Hongmeng Measuring Heaven Ruler tirelessly smashed into the Demon Master Palace.

With every strike, Kunpeng's face in the distance turned a shade paler.

After eight strikes, Kunpeng was deathly pale and could no longer endure it. He hurriedly seized an opening, wrapped up the surviving demons, and fled.

Qing Xuanzi put away the Hongmeng Measuring Heaven Ruler. He did not pursue Kunpeng, instead returning to the battlefield between the Witch Race and Demon Clan.

Upon arriving, Qing Xuanzi shouted, "Kunpeng, get out here!"

As he shouted, he swung the Hongmeng Measuring Heaven Ruler around wildly.

Before long, demon soldiers and generals began falling like rain.

Tianwu shouted from the side, "Brother Qing Xuanzi, don't steal my kills! I'm about to lose here, so go steal kills somewhere else!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who happened to glimpse the scene, was frantic with anxiety.

Damn it, how could this be allowed? Wasn't this just bullying?

He shouted, "Qing Xuanzi, how dare you!"

Qing Xuanzi pursed his lips and moved even faster, while shouting "Kunpeng, get out here!" even louder.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi roared, "Kunpeng! Where's Kunpeng? Kunpeng, if you don't come out now, I'll definitely kill you someday!"

Taiyi had truly hardened his heart. Kunpeng was no good at all. He had promised to hold Qing Xuanzi back.

Yet now, he had vanished without a trace.

Who knew what Kunpeng was thinking, but he still did not dare show himself.

Instead, Fuxi found an opening and rushed before Qing Xuanzi. "Fellow Daoist Qing Xuanzi, please stop."

Qing Xuanzi stopped. He had to give Fuxi face.

He was Nüwa's brother, and he had passed down the Eight Trigrams method to the Human Race. He had shown the Human Race kindness, so this favor had to be granted.

After returning to the Human Race Dao Palace, Qing Xuanzi remained constantly on guard against Kunpeng's sneak attacks.

But Kunpeng never appeared again.

On the battlefield between the Witch Race and Demon Clan, the Demon Clan was clearly no match for the Witch Race and was beaten into fleeing in all directions.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Dijun immediately shouted, "Demon Clan warriors, form the array at once!"

Dijun let out a roar, exchanged several hard blows, and leaped out of the battle.

With a wave of the Hetu Luoshu, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the Demon Generals also exchanged several hard blows.

Dragging their blood-spitting bodies, they took up their respective positions.

In an instant, thick fog rose, and the entire battlefield between the Witch Race and Demon Clan transformed into a starry sky.

The Demon Clan's Stars All Over The Heavens Formation had activated.

Meteor after meteor crashed wildly toward the Witch Race as though they cost nothing.

The Ancestral Witches were fine, shattering them with a single punch.

But there were too many, and they were too densely packed. Occasionally, even they were staggered by the blows.

Most importantly, the Witch Race warriors could not withstand them. In an instant, they suffered grievous casualties.

Dijiang's eyes turned red. These were the Witch Race's fresh blood and main fighting force.

Yet they were dying such miserable deaths without even seeing the shadows of their enemies.

This could not continue.

So he also shouted, "Brothers, form the array!"

The twelve towering Ancestral Witch true forms gathered together.

Each took their designated position.

In less than an instant, a baleful formation that pierced the heavens appeared: the Twelve Divine Demonic Array.

Protected by the formation, the Witch Race warriors seemed as though they had been injected with blood, their spirits surging.

One after another, they transformed into Great Witch true forms.

Some had even come close to attaining Ancestral Witch true forms.

For example, the Great Witches Xingtian, Houyi, Feng Bo, and Yushi.

With the aid of the Twelve Divine Heavens Formation, the Witch Race finally had the means to contend with the Demon Clan's Stars All Over The Heavens Formation.
