Ever since Hongjun destroyed the Devil Ancestor Luohu, the Primordial Wilderness ushered in a hard-won period of peace!

Having undergone the world-shattering battle between the Dao Ancestor and the Devil Ancestor, the primordial supreme gods of the Primordial Wilderness all knew the gravity of the situation. Now, however, they were one by one hiding in their immortal caves to cultivate, striving to prove that myriad-calamity-defying Chaos Dao Fruit!

Yet how could Primordial Chaos Saints be so easily proven!

Let alone the various primordial supreme gods seeking the Dao for the time being, as the saying goes, the operation of the Heavenly Dao never ceases, and the great tribulations of the world will likewise not stop!

Thus another ten or twenty thousand years passed, and behold, the sky grew pitch black, wind and rain lashed together, sun and moon shifted. Near Mount Buzhou in the Primordial Wilderness, a sudden explosion was heard that shook the heavens and earth, resembling a roar from the firmament!

At that moment, countless primordial supreme gods were startled. Such momentum was truly terrifying, so they each pinched their fingers to calculate. The Heavenly Dao suddenly cleared up, and instantly everyone understood the cause and effect!

As the story goes, when the primordial god Pangu fell after splitting the heavens, the twelve drops of blood in his body combined with the congenital turbid qi and the Capital Heaven Fiendish Qi to generate sentience, and at this moment they were due to be born!

The sky exploded, and behold, at the foot of Mount Buzhou, a fissure resembling an abyss suddenly split open. That fissure was pitch black and fathomless, so that even a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal could not see its limits at a single glance!

Abruptly, in less than half an instant, twelve strangely shaped human figures leaped out from that endless abyss. Those twelve people radiated an ancient and majestic aura, and their every movement could trigger spatial fluctuations, which was truly startling beyond measure!

Needless to say, these twelve people were none other than the later generations' illustrious Twelve Ancestral Shamans!

The first looked like a yellow sack, red as cinnabar fire, with six legs and four wings, and was completely faceless; he was Dijiang (space and speed).

The second was green as emerald bamboo, with a bird's body and a human face, riding two dragons; he was Goumang (wood).

The third had a human face and a tiger's body, clad in golden scales, with wings growing from his shoulder blades, a snake piercing his left ear, and riding two dragons; he was Rongshou (metal).

The fourth had a python's head and a human body, clad in black scales, stepping on a black dragon, with a blue python coiling around his hands; he was Gonggong (water).

The fifth had a beast's head and a human body, clad in red scales, fire serpents piercing his ears, and stepping on a fire dragon; he was Zhurong (fire).

The sixth had eight heads and human faces, with a tiger's body and ten tails; he was Tianwu (wind).

The seventh held a snake in its mouth and snakes in its hands. It had a tiger's head and a human body, four hooves for feet, and long elbows; he was Qiangliang (lightning).

The eighth had a human face and a bird's body, green snakes hanging from his ears, and held red snakes in his hands; he was Xizi (electricity).

The ninth had a human face and a snake's body, entirely crimson; he was Zhulong, also called Zhuyin (time).

The tenth had a human face and a beast's body, ears resembling a dog's, with green snakes hanging from his ears; he was Shebi Corpse (weather).

The eleventh had a human body and a snake's tail, with seven hands on her back, two hands on her chest, and holding two winged serpents in her hands; she was Houtu (earth).

The twelfth was a ferocious giant beast with bone spurs covering its entire body. It was Xuanming (rain).

The Twelve Ancestral Shamans were well worthy of being transformed from the blood essence of the primordial god Pangu. Their innate physical bodies were incomparably formidable, capable of swallowing the heavens and earth, manipulating the five phases of heaven and earth, the four elemental systems, wind, water, thunder, and lightning, filling oceans and moving mountains, altering the skies and changing the earth, capable of everything. From birth, they possessed cultivation equivalent to that of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, which was truly extraordinary and formidable!

Not long after the birth of the Twelve Ancestral Shamans, nearly a million shamanic followers were also born near Mount Buzhou. These shamanic followers were likewise extraordinary; those with the lowest cultivation were equivalent to the Celestial Immortal realm, while those with higher cultivation were even equivalent to the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm, which was likewise remarkable.

The moment the Twelve Ancestral Shamans and the host of shamanic followers were born, it seemed as though there was a natural will in the dark. Two shrieks echoed from the starry sky, their shrieks exceptionally terrifying, each occupying half of the anomalous sights caused by the birth of the ancestral shamans. They were none other than the emperors of the Demon Race, two golden crows who had transformed and emerged: one was Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who from birth clutched the Chaos Bell, a supreme primordial treasure transformed from the Pangu Axe; the other was Dijun, who from birth likewise clutched two top-grade primordial spiritual treasures, the River Chart and Luo Script. Both of these individuals possessed boundless divine powers and were famous mighty figures of later generations. The moment they transformed, they possessed the cultivation of the late Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, and inherently carried the Purple Imperial Qi, bearing the grand appearance of emperors. In days to come, they would become the emperors of the Demon Race and hold sway over the vital grounds of the Heavenly Court.

As time progressed, many acquired tree spirits and monsters either awakened their sentience or transformed and emerged. These acquired monsters were the earliest Demon Race, among whom the ten most famous were respectively:

Jimeng, whose true form had a human body and a dragon's head, lived in seclusion in the Zhang Abyss, and wherever he went, violent storms invariably followed. All his magical power mostly resided within these winds and rains. When he assumed human form, his appearance was rather valiant and imposing, holding a three-pronged Sea-Ravaging Steel Trident in his hands and clad in a suit of dragon-scale armor.

Yingzhao, whose true form had a human face and a horse's body, bore tiger stripes and bird wings, with a voice like a pomegranate. When he assumed human form, his appearance was ferocious, holding an iron club densely engraved with incantations and wearing tiger-skin clothing, exuding a rather fierce and rugged air.

Baize, who understood astronomy and geography above, and trivial matters below; he knew the past and comprehended the future. He was innately capable of human speech. If he had not attained the Dao somewhat later, this position of supreme demon saint would likely have been taken by someone else. When he took human form, he possessed an air of immortal refinement and a rather scholarly demeanor. Holding a feathered fan in his hand, he leisurely fanned himself, presenting the exact picture of a military strategist.

Feidan was an avian who had attained the Dao, his true form resembling a rat with bare feet. When he assumed human form, his appearance was slightly wretched, with two wisps of rat whiskers that added a touch of comedy.

Feilian's true form had a deer's body, a bird-like head with horns, a snake's tail, and leopard markings. He was likewise clad in animal skins, exuding a bold and heroic air. In his hand he held a fan over six feet long, adorned with various attribute gems, looking exceptionally magnificent and rather resembling the legendary Plantain Fan.

Jiuying possessed nine heads and was a water-and-fire monster. Living beings with such dual attributes were truly rare. The two crescent-shaped weapons she held were unique arms she had refined over thousands of years by gathering the essences of the sun and moon, carrying water and fire attributes, and possessing truly boundless power.

Shangyang's true body was a cyan single-legged bird, rumored to have deep roots connected to the phoenix race. She was extremely beautiful and wore a light cyan silk robe.

Qinyuan was likewise an avian who had attained the Dao, her true form resembling a bee, about the size of a mandarin duck. Her human form was also a rare beauty, clad in five-colored garments entirely woven from the wings of primordial spiritual birds.

Citie's true form was hideous, resembling a water buffalo but with giant horns, black fur and hide, and feeding on iron. His excrement was as sharp as steel. Such a spiritual beast was truly rare, actually capable of refining steel. He transformed into a human form with dark skin and a face like the bottom of a pot, wielding a spiked club with his upper body bare, instantly revealing himself to be a crude and immensely strong fellow.

Guiche was truly illustrious, also known by the alias of the Nine-Headed Bird. Crimson in color and resembling a duck, when he revealed his original form, his wings spanned a hundred zhang across. Blind by day and clear-sighted by night, the slightest encounter with gloom and darkness would send him flying and crying past. This beast was a primordial fierce beast and ranked among the very best experts among the top ten demons.

These top ten demon gods were each extraordinary; those with the lowest cultivation possessed the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm, while the highest ones had even stepped half a foot into the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm!

Thus, the Wu and Demon races mutually evolved and gradually ascended to the stage of the Primordial Wilderness!
