"Since you have come to form an alliance, follow me into Shouyang Mountain so we can discuss it further. I think Nüwa should have returned by now."
Immediately afterward, Ling Wudao turned and waved his hand, opening a gap in the Heavenly Array of Rebound.
"Follow me!"
With that, he walked directly into the array.
Houtu looked at Xuan Ming, who was sprawled on the ground. "Let's go in too!"
Upon hearing that, Xuan Ming immediately got to her feet. "Hmph! That brat is too hateful. How dare he treat me like that? Next time, I'll definitely defeat him."
Houtu glanced at Xuan Ming before heading straight into the array. Seeing that Houtu ignored her, Xuan Ming wisely followed after her.
Meanwhile, on Golden Turtle Island within Biyou Palace, Tongtian sat cross-legged on a Prayer Mat, holding the Future Talisman Ling Wudao had given him.
Ling Wudao's words echoed through his sea of consciousness: What would become of the Three Pure Ones in the end? What would become of the Intercepting Sect?
Tongtian took a deep breath and decided to use the Future Talisman in his hand. He desperately wanted to know what the Three Pure Ones would ultimately become, and what fate awaited his Intercepting Sect.
With that thought, Tongtian used his divine ability to conceal all heavenly secrets within Biyou Palace, then poured his Mana into the Future Talisman.
"Buzz!"
The Future Talisman flew into the air and emitted faint ripples. Then, a crack appeared in the void, and a figure stepped out from it.
Tongtian stared at the figure that emerged, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Was this truly his future self? But why did his face bear such weariness and regret? What exactly had happened in the future?
Tongtian rose to his feet and addressed his future self. "What happened in the future? Why have you become like this?"
The future Tongtian looked at the present Tongtian Sect Leader.
"Hahaha!"
"I never thought that I, Tongtian, would also have a sliver of hope."
"Present me, listen carefully."
Then, the future Tongtian told the present Tongtian Sect Leader everything that would happen in the future.
After listening to the future Tongtian's account, Tongtian completely exploded with rage, his face filled with fury.
"I never expected the Three Pure Ones to end up like this, nor did I expect Master to be so partial. I, Tongtian, refuse to accept this!"
"The fact that you can see me now means that a sliver of hope has arrived. You must seize it well and never walk my old path again."
"There is not much time. I will now pass everything I have comprehended to you. I hope you can change the Intercepting Sect's final fate."
As soon as he finished speaking, the future Tongtian sent a stream of energy into Tongtian's sea of consciousness, and his figure slowly vanished within Biyou Palace.
Only after the future Tongtian had completely disappeared did Tongtian gradually come back to his senses.
So this was what the future held. No wonder Wudao said that rather than have him tell me, it would be better for me to tell myself. Indeed, if he had told me, I would never have believed that Taiqing and Yuanshi would harm me.
Now that I knew the Intercepting Sect's future fate, I could do without the brotherhood of the Three Pure Ones!
For now, I should first comprehend the insights given by my Future Self, then form an alliance with Wudao. Only then would the Intercepting Sect have a sliver of hope.
With that thought, Tongtian immediately sat down cross-legged and began receiving the insights his Future Self had passed on to him.
Elsewhere, Ling Wudao had just led Houtu and Xuan Ming to the summit of Shouyang Mountain when they saw an exceptionally grand and magnificent palace.
Looking up at the space above the palace gates, they saw three large characters written there: Wa Huang Palace.
"I didn't expect Nüwa Empress to move her palace here so quickly. Come, let's go inside and continue our discussion."
With that, he led Houtu and Xuan Ming into Wa Huang Palace. At that moment, Nüwa in the main hall sensed someone entering, along with the auras of two ancestral witches.
Those auras belong to Houtu and Xuan Ming. Why have they come here? Wait, that is Wudao's aura. Could it be that Wudao brought them here?
Thinking that this was possible, Nüwa rose from her Cloud Bed.
However, just as she stood up, Ling Wudao slowly entered with Houtu and Xuan Ming.
When Nüwa saw the three of them enter, a faint smile appeared on her face.
"Houtu, it has been ten thousand years since we last met, hasn't it?"
"Nüwa, ever since you attained the Dao, it has indeed been ten thousand years since we last met. Now you are a Heavenly Dao Saint and the Wa Emperor of the demon race. Can we still be considered friends?"
At those words, Nüwa could not help but sigh softly.
"The two races stand opposed, and I cannot change that. Although I do not participate in any of the demon race's actions, neither can I simply watch the demon race be destroyed."
"But things are different now. I have decided to leave the demon race, so we can still remain friends."
"Still, what brings you to the Human Race?"
Houtu's gaze sharpened before she spoke. "We came to form an alliance with the Human Race and oppose the demon race together."
"Now that you have decided to leave the demon race, I assume you will not object to an alliance between us and the Human Race?"
"I do not oppose this matter. But if you wish to form an alliance, discuss it with Wudao. He is now the Human Emperor of the Human Race."
Upon hearing this, Houtu looked toward Ling Wudao at her side. "Would you be willing to form an alliance with my Witch Race?"
Hearing Houtu's words, Ling Wudao replied, "An alliance with your Witch Race is certainly possible, but do you have any conditions for forming an alliance with our Human Race?"
"We have no conditions. We only hope that if either of our races goes to war with the demon race, the other race can provide support at any time."
"Of course. Allies should help one another. But you also know the Human Race's current situation. The Human Race is not suited to clashing with the demon race in the near future."
"Our Human Race needs time to recuperate and grow, and during that time, Nüwa Empress and I will strengthen the Human Race's foundation."
"When a great battle with the demon race begins, I alone can support the Witch Race. You have seen my strength. I alone can equal tens of millions of human race cultivators."
"But speaking of which, I have heard that the Witch Race has no primordial spirits. If I could allow you to possess primordial spirits, how would you repay me?"
At those words, Houtu and Xuan Ming both revealed deeply shocked expressions.
Houtu reached out and grabbed Ling Wudao's shoulder, then said with a trembling voice, "Do you truly have a way to give our Witch Race primordial spirits?"
"I do, and I can guarantee that I can make primordial spirits emerge within you."
"But how do you intend to repay me? After all, making your entire Witch Race possess primordial spirits would be an extremely arduous task."
Xuan Ming, standing beside them, spoke up. "Brat... no, Wudao, if you can give our Witch Race primordial spirits, then this sister will listen to whatever you say."
