Hou Yi Shoots the Suns!

A piece of information arrived from the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book.

Divine Ability — Sky Splitting Cloud Piercing! (Perfected)!

Jiang Haofeng glanced at it but paid it no mind. He already possessed this divine ability, and it wasn't inferior to Hou Yi's.

If Jiang Haofeng had been the one to shoot the suns back then, he could have shot them down too.

The ten Golden Crows were, after all, just younglings in the Golden Immortal Realm. Even with the protection left by Di Jun, the True Sun Fire was good at attacking and killing, not defense.

With Jiang Haofeng's current strength at the late stage of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal Realm, combined with the perfected Sky Splitting Cloud Piercing, shooting down ten Golden Crows wasn't a significant matter.

It would be the real skill if someone could shoot down Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, those two Golden Crows!

Although Jiang Haofeng already knew Hou Yi's divine ability, he still had his gains.

Low-grade Innate Spirit TreasureHeaven Shaking Bow!

Low-grade Innate Spirit TreasureCloud Piercing Arrow!

Ten consecutive arrows. The Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book had completed simulating the spiritual essence of these two magic treasures. Thus, the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book in his mind could fully transform into the low-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, the Heaven Shaking Bow and the Cloud Piercing Arrow!

This was also a great harvest!

Afterward, the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book's mystic light flashed again, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, with the Chaos Bell above his head, also appeared on the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book.

However, the Chaos Bell above Eastern Emperor Taiyi's head was extremely blurry and hard to make out clearly. At a glance, one could tell it was the Chaos Bell, but it was truly impossible to discern its specific appearance.

There were three divine abilities. Two of them were identical to those of the little Golden Crows, but the True Sun Fire and the Golden Crow's Rainbow Transformation were both perfected; they were not on the same level as the little Golden Crows.

There was also the divine ability — Great Sun Golden Flame (Incomplete)!

Jiang Haofeng's eyes lit up. Great Sun Golden Flame, one of the Four Primordial Chaos Spirits, the source of all flames!

Even though it was incomplete, the divine ability should not be underestimated.

Perhaps it was useless for defense, but fire itself was not meant for defense!

Following that was the Chaos Bell, with 3% of its spiritual essence simulated.

Yes, after the great battle, the chaos bell simulated by the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book only had 3% of its spiritual essence.

Jiang Haofeng had anticipated this. The Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book itself was merely an Innate Supreme Treasure. It could simulate the spiritual essence of treasures or divine abilities below the Saint level with astonishing speed, but for those above the Saint level, the speed was extremely slow.

Besides the Chaos Bell, there was the Emerald Light Two Principles Lamp, with 10% of its spiritual essence simulated. The Emerald Light Two Principles Lamp had only made one move. Although it was a full-power strike, displaying all its profundities, the time was still too short, and only 10% of its spiritual essence was simulated.

Next, one by one, images appeared on the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book: Di Jun, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Kunpeng, Xi He, and so on.

Various divine abilities appeared in Jiang Haofeng's mind.

A moment later, after reviewing all the spiritual essence, Jiang Haofeng roughly calculated that his greatest gains from the Witch Tribe were the seventh and eighth stages of the Nine Revolutions Profound Art. This meant Jiang Haofeng could now cultivate to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm with his current cultivation method.

In addition, there was the Twelve Capital Celestial Gods Array. The array was a Saint-level grand array, and the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book struggled to simulate it. However, it couldn't be helped that the Twelve Capital Celestial Gods Array had existed for a long time, and ultimately, 20% of its spiritual essence was simulated.

However, this only served as a reference for Jiang Haofeng. He could use it to deduce other arrays. Even with the profoundness of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Book, Jiang Haofeng couldn't conjure twelve Ancestral Witches to form the array.

Even so, it was still very useful. If he had had the Twelve Capital Celestial Gods Array as a reference when deducing the Myriad Fiends Slaughtering God Formation back then, the time would have been greatly reduced.

Following that was the divine ability Heaven Opening Earth Splitting. This strongest divine ability among the nine great divine abilities of the Martial Dao had been completely updated.

The divine ability was still Heaven Opening Earth Splitting, but it was no longer the same Heaven Opening Earth Splitting as before. The strongest divine ability had become even stronger, and it had advanced from the beginner stage to the great accomplishment stage!

Heaven Opening Earth Splitting was a true Saint divine ability!

As it involved the Saint level, deducing it was a bit troublesome. It was not yet perfected. The great accomplishment stage of Heaven Opening Earth Splitting could barely be considered semi-Saint level. However, the Witch-Demon War would happen again, and there would be opportunities to complete the divine ability.

When this divine ability was cultivated to perfection, even without Saint-level power, he would be able to fight against those of higher cultivation. If his own cultivation reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm, with this divine ability alone, he could contend for the position of the strongest below a Saint!

In addition to these, there were the Primordial River-Luo Great Array and the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array. He had comprehended 10% of the spiritual essence of each, greatly enriching Jiang Haofeng's foundation in formations.

With this 10% spiritual essence, he could deduce quite a few corresponding battle formations. They couldn't compare to the primordial killing formations like the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array and the Primordial River-Luo Great Array, but they were still first-class grand arrays!

The Supreme Treasure River Diagram and Luo Book each had 10% of their spiritual essence comprehended.

In summary, any means used by the Witch and Demon tribes, any spiritual treasures used, had been recorded to varying degrees.

The great battle between the Witches and Demons had increased Jiang Haofeng's foundation several times over. With these spiritual essences, the future humanity and its forces would become increasingly powerful.

The Witch-Demon War was not a good thing for either the Witch or Demon tribes, but for humanity, it was a great joyous occasion. Jiang Haofeng had already begun to look forward to the second great war between the Witches and Demons.

At this moment, Jiang Haofeng immediately began to enter seclusion to cultivate and digest the gains from this battle. Of course, it was not a complete seclusion; Jiang Haofeng continuously allocated a wisp of his divine sense to monitor the situation of humanity.

Concurrently, on Mount Sumeru in the West, the future location of Spiritual Mountain!

Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti sat opposite each other, gazing at the Primordial world before them.

Daoist Zhunti said with some emotion, "The Witch and Demon tribes actually possess such profound foundations. Fortunately, they were forced out this time; otherwise, if you and I had encountered them, we would have had to expend some effort."

Jieyin also nodded slightly. The subsequent emergence of Saint-level power from the Witch and Demon tribes had truly startled Jieyin.

"We two have made forty-eight great vows to achieve Sainthood. We must ensure the prosperity of the Western Teaching and complete the forty-eight great vows to secure our Saint positions."

"To make my Western Teaching prosper, the Witch and Demon tribes must not be allowed to remain. The strength of both tribes is too great, and the Witch tribe believes in Great God Pangu, disregarding all others!"

"The Demon tribe believes in the heavens, earth, mountains, and rivers, and the stars of the heavens. Both tribes will definitely not believe in my Great Dao of the West. Until both religions are extinguished, the West will not prosper!"

Zhunti raised his head and looked at the Primordial land. The situation of the Witch and Demon tribes came into view, his eyes filled with indifference.

"My junior brother has already instigated a war between the two tribes. The Demon Emperor lost a son, and the Great Witches bled. The enmity between the two tribes is irreconcilable. We will observe the situation, and both tribes are bound to perish!" Jieyin said from the side.

"We must abolish the methods of the Saints of both tribes. If not, the conflict between them will cause too much damage to the Primordial Era world. The Primordial Era is the foundation of my Western Teaching's development, and we cannot let the two tribes ruin it."

"Ultimately, neither tribe has a Saint; they rely solely on the power of their formations. It won't be difficult to break them!"

Zhunti's eyes flickered. Formations were just formations. As long as one Ancestral Witch was killed, the Twelve Capital Celestial Gods Array would collapse on its own.

As for the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array, Jieyin could harness the power of the stars. By isolating the stellar energy, it could be broken. It wasn't necessary to isolate all the stars, just a portion of them, which would make the Zhou Tian Star Dou incomplete and the formation imperfect.

However, the Demon Tribe also had Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the Primordial River-Luo Great Array. If the Twelve Capital Celestial Gods Array was not complete, the Witch Tribe might not be a match for the Demon Tribe.

Both great formations were based on the River Diagram and Luo Book. The Primordial River-Luo Great Array needed the River Diagram and Luo Book to evolve space-time, and the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array needed the River Diagram and Luo Book to draw upon the power of the stars. Without the River Diagram and Luo Book, both of the Demon Tribe's formations would be useless!

"Junior brother, feel free to proceed. If you need anything, just let me know," Jieyin said from the side.

"It's a small matter. Senior brother, please remain at Mount Sumeru and focus on teaching your disciples. I am sufficient on my own!" Zhunti said with a smile.

"Good!"

After a while, Zhunti spoke again, "Senior brother, after the Witch and Demon tribes are annihilated, the protagonists of the Primordial Era world will be the humans created by Nuwa."

"With the destiny of heaven and earth upon them, humanity will surely develop vigorously and their strength will surge. It was like this for the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes in the past, and it is like this for the Witch and Demon tribes now. If humanity's strength becomes too great, they might become an obstacle to the prosperity of my Western Teaching, just like the Witch and Demon tribes are today. It would be better to sever humanity's foundation and curb their development while they are still weak."

Hearing this, Jieyin looked towards where humanity was located. In a vast territory in the southern part of the Primordial Era, human tribes stood tall. In the very center was Central Phoenix Mountain, the Human Ancestral Court.

Protected by the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array, within the formation, the energies of life, death, and creation surged. Dense golden light of merit illuminated all directions. Even though they were Saints, they could not see clearly, only vaguely perceive some heavenly secrets.

The closer they got to the center, the more blurred the heavenly secrets became. As for the Human Ancestral Pavilion at the very center, it was completely undetectable under the shroud of merit.

Jiang Haofeng had always believed that the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array of the Human Ancestral Court could not block the detection of Saints, only Quasi-Saints. However, in reality, the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array also had a good blocking effect on Saints, making them unable to detect clearly.

After all, the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array was the protective formation of Humanity Teaching, one of the most renowned great formations in the Primordial Era, and it was personally arranged by the Grand Pure Sage, using the Creation Sacred Spring as the formation core. Its power was naturally extraordinary.

Only Hongjun, Grand Pure, and Nuwa could see through the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array. The Grand Pure Sage was familiar with the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array, and Sage Nuwa was familiar with the Creation Sacred Spring. The power of creation could not block Nuwa. Without the power of creation, the formation alone could not block Nuwa's detection.

As for Hongjun, it was entirely due to his immense power.

The remaining four Saints could only see through a mist, perceiving a little but not clearly. In a sense, these four Saints were already blocked from the outside.

As for the Human Ancestral Pavilion on Central Phoenix Mountain, only Hongjun could see through it on the entire Primordial Era continent. Within the human obstruction, merit blocked the way, making it impossible for even Sage Nuwa and the Grand Pure Sage to detect.

Of course, Jiang Haofeng did not know any of this, nor did any Saint personally tell Jiang Haofeng whether they could clearly detect the human ancestral land.

"I'm afraid Grand Pure Senior Brother will intervene," Jieyin pondered for a moment.

As soon as his voice fell, Zhunti also fell silent. Humanity was not like the Witch and Demon tribes; there were no Saints behind them, and Nuwa's relationship with the Demon Tribe was not significant. Nuwa and Fuxi were originally Innate Great Gods. Whether they were part of the Demon Tribe or not depended entirely on Nuwa's own acknowledgment. Currently, Nuwa resided in Wa Huang Heaven, clearly having no intention of getting involved in the Demon Tribe's affairs.

But humanity was different. Grand Pure Senior Brother established Humanity Teaching to enlighten humanity and personally set up the Two Forms Micro Dust Great Array to conceal humanity's heavenly secrets. Attacking humanity would inevitably offend Grand Pure Senior Brother.

After pondering for a moment, Zhunti spoke, "The Calamity is approaching. When the Calamity arrives, the heavenly secrets will be chaotic, and even Saints will not be able to deduce them. At that time, I will calculate a plan and use the Demon Tribe to break humanity's foundation."

"When the Demon Tribe is destroyed, Grand Pure Senior Brother will have nothing to say."

The Primordial Era did not count years; time flowed leisurely. In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years passed.

A vast and ancient aura erupted from Jiang Haofeng's wooden house. In an instant, the mighty aura swept across the entire Central Phoenix Mountain. The phantom of a towering giant, reaching the heavens, appeared in the void, its face identical to Jiang Haofeng's.

Zhisheng, who was cultivating nearby, was stunned. This was... the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm?

Immediately, a look of ecstasy appeared on Zhisheng's face. Haofeng had broken through, becoming the first peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal of humanity!

A golden light flashed, and Zhisheng's figure appeared in front of Jiang Haofeng's wooden house, waiting for Jiang Haofeng to emerge from seclusion.

Inside the wooden house, Jiang Haofeng slowly opened his eyes. Mysterious light surged around him, and an unprecedented sense of power emerged. Every movement was accompanied by immense strength.

Excellent!

As his comprehension of the Nine Revolutions Profound Art reached the eighth level, he gained a new understanding of the Profound Art, directly cultivating the sixth level to perfection and advancing to the peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Next was the seventh level of the Profound Art. Once successful, his physical strength would rival that of a Quasi-Saint, making him a Quasi-Saint mighty being, respectfully addressed as a Great Divine Powers.

At that time, he would be considered a notable figure in the Primordial Era.
