Hong Jun Makes a Move, the Witch Clan's Trump Card

Hong Jun frowned and said, "You guys don't actually believe that rumor about breaking through by beating up Zhunti, do you?"

Dijiang shook his head and said, "This is no rumor. After we tried it, we truly gained some insights. For example, the Way of Space, prioritizing containment and control..."

Houtu also said, "The Six Paths of Reincarnation, endless life..."

Zhu Jiuyin stroked his beard and said, "The River of Time can also be turned. The Law of Time, set." Then, time truly stopped for Jieyin.

The Ancestor Witches' insights made Hong Jun doubt if beating up Zhunti could really lead to enlightenment. If nothing else, Houtu's realization of reincarnation was indeed correct.

After some thought, Hong Jun decided that he still had to save people. Thus, Hong Jun spoke, "You have all made some breakthroughs, and your physical bodies have also improved. Why don't you release Zhunti first?"

Dijiang shook his head and said, "It's already good enough that we respect you as the Dao Ancestor. You still want us to release him? Don't even think about it."

Since Hong Jun began preaching in Zixiao Palace, he had always been accustomed to his word being final. Except for the time a mysterious person came to help Bo Huang get Merit and he didn't give it, resulting in him being beaten and losing some blood, he had never suffered any losses. Even then, Hong Jun didn't think he had lost, as Bo Huang's Merit still hadn't descended, even though he himself had been beaten quite badly.

Then, the more Hong Jun thought about it, the angrier he became. He said, "I am not discussing this with you. If you still refuse to release Zhunti, I will resort to force."

The Witch Clan, to put it politely, were a warrior race. To put it bluntly, they were a bunch of brutes. When their temper flared, they didn't care if you were the Dao Ancestor; they would still fight you...

Thus, Dijiang shouted, "This old geezer wants to ruin our opportunity! Form the Great Formation of the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons!"

With that, the twelve Ancestor Witches began to form the array. Strands of malevolent energy surged forth, coiling around the twelve Ancestor Witches. Dijiang's roar was heard, "Pangu True Body, condense!"

Rumbling, a colossal Pangu True Body appeared at the foot of Buzhou Mountain. Blood energy surged all over its body, and it threw a punch towards Hong Jun.

Hong Jun was not afraid either, thinking, I was a primordial demon god back in the day, how can I be inferior to you juniors?

With this thought, Hong Jun raised his hand and pointed a finger at the fist of the Pangu True Body. A massive explosion of energy suddenly erupted, forcing the Pangu True Body back several steps.

The Pangu True Body opened its mouth and roared, "Pangu Hall, condense, Axe, come!"

Then, the Pangu True Body merged with Pangu Hall. Afterward, the beating of a heart could be heard from the Pangu True Body, its bloodline power surging even higher. It then condensed a phantom of the Axe of Creation in its hand and cleaved it down.

Hong Jun was shocked by this. Immortal Dao Laws permeated his entire being as he blocked the attack. Then, he roared, "Break!" With his Saint realm cultivation, combined with the power of Immortal Dao Laws, he injured the Ancestor Witches and successfully broke the formation.

However, the Ancestor Witches played a sneaky move, directly retreating into Pangu Hall, leaving Hong Jun outside fuming.

Seeing this, Jieyin took out the Staff of Blessing and prepared to smash it. Hong Jun warned, "This is the heart of the Great God Pangu. Try smashing it. Putting aside whether you can even move it, can you bear the karma?"

Jieyin shook his head, admitting his rashness and inability to bear such karma. Hong Jun then said to Pangu Hall, "As you wish. You may release Zhunti after ten thousand years."

Inside Pangu Hall, Zhunti had a look of utter despair. He thought, I am grateful that you are here to save me, but I don't like this half-hearted effort because now I'm going to be beaten even worse.

As expected, Dijiang and the other Witches looked at Zhunti with ill intentions. Xuanming stepped forward and slapped him, saying, "So, you're the one who has people coming to save you, huh? Brothers, beat him up."

Zhu Rong, true to his nature as the Ancestor Witch of fire, had a fiery temper. He immediately started kicking, completely forgetting about enlightenment, purely out of spite. The other Ancestor Witches followed suit, giving Zhunti a round of kicks. To put it simply, judging by the skill with which these Ancestor Witches were kicking Zhunti, they could play in the World Cup without any training.

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Court, Great Immortal Zhenyuan was eating Ginseng Fruit with Di Jun, Tai Yi, and other powerful figures of the Demon Race, discussing the recent battle.

Great Immortal Zhenyuan said, "The Dao Ancestor is indeed the Dao Ancestor. He defeated the twelve Ancestor Witches so easily."

Tai Yi's heart was still pounding. "They could actually summon the Pangu True Body. Fortunately, it wasn't directed at my Demon Race."

Di Jun said, "It's only a matter of time. Who do you think the Witch Clan prepared this trump card for initially?"

Kunpeng said, "The injuries sustained by the twelve Ancestor Witches this time are also a good thing for my Demon Race. Hmm, our Demon Race also needs to strengthen our formations."

Di Jun said, "Precisely, the Grand Formation of the Stars should also be further improved."

"Ding, Task issued: Establish the Heavenly Court Bank. Task Reward: Advanced Formation Diagram of the Grand Formation of the Stars," the System announced at the opportune moment.
