Houtu Could Be Counted On, and She Really Delivered the Ancestral Witches
"That's right, this is my elder brother, the Lightning Ancestral Witch, Wengzi. He is well-versed in the Law of Thunder and Lightning and possesses formidable combat power."
Really------
Ye Xuan was amazed.
Some of the descriptions from later generations were indeed correct.
Based on descriptions in later written records, he recognized the identity of this Ancestral Witch.
Seeing the real Ancestral Witch now still fills him with immense awe.
Houtu gently stroked her brother Wengzi's body, the sorrow in her eyes clearly visible.
After a long while, she came to the second red cloth.
He reached out and tore the red cloth off as well.
Another terrifying figure appeared.
Its overall appearance seems to be much more terrifying than Wengzi, the Lightning Ancestral Witch.
What appeared to be a gigantic figure with a human face and a tiger's body was...
An incredibly alluring human head was attached to a tiger's body.
The tiger's two ears were also quite large, and two giant snakes were also inserted through them.
Ye Xuan felt a chill run down his spine. Did the Witch Clan really enjoy playing with snakes that much?
This image is truly bizarre.
Its entire body was covered in terrifying scales, somewhat resembling a tiger, and also somewhat resembling a qilin.
It also has two enormous bone wings on its back.
Beneath his feet were two creatures that resembled neither dragons nor snakes.
Ye Xuan recognized the person's identity.
Ancient books describe it as having a human face and a tiger's body, covered in golden scales, with wings on its back, snakes piercing its ears, and riding a dragon at its feet.
"Ru Shou?"
"That's right, this is my other elder brother, Ru Shou, the Metal Ancestral Witch, who cultivates the Law of Metal and possesses an incomparably sharp body of Geng metal."
Listening to Houtu's introduction, Ye Xuan nodded silently.
These creatures of the Witch Clan are all incredibly ugly, but in terms of physical strength, few living beings can compare with them.
Houtu quickly arrived at another red cloth and reached out to tear it off.
Beneath the red cloth, another incredibly terrifying figure could be seen.
It was also a creature with a human face and a beast's body.
This guy was incredibly ugly, and his entire body was purple.
Even a purple aura emanated from his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears, which was quite terrifying.
Two green snakes also hung from their ears.
Its physical form is beyond description.
Its two hind legs are extremely short, while its two forelimbs are exceptionally long.
It looks like it's neither standing nor sitting.
This appearance is truly hideous.
Upon seeing this image, Ye Xuan swallowed hard.
Could this guy be the most infamous Poison Ancestral Witch in the Primordial World, Shebishi?
Not to mention other living beings, even within the Witch Clan, this guy is not well-liked.
When this guy was alive, he was practically the most poisonous creature in the Primordial World.
"This one is Shebishi, the Poison Ancestral Witch of the Witch Clan. He cultivates the Law of Poison, possessing bizarre abilities, yet he has a kind heart—"
"This is my elder brother Gou Mang, the Wood Ancestral Witch, who cultivates the Law of Wood— "
"This is my elder brother, Tian Wu, the Wind Ancestral Witch -------"
"--------"
Houtu tore off the red cloth as she explained to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan listened quietly without interrupting.
They soon arrived at the second-to-last piece of red cloth.
The moment the red cloth was torn off, even Ye Xuan's pupils contracted slightly.
The figure looked rather strange.
It looks somewhat like a snake, and somewhat like a dragon.
Or it could be described as a combination of a dragon and a snake.
It has a dragon's head and a snake's body, but no limbs.
It is clearly a dragon head, but the proportions of its facial features are quite strange.
The positions of both the eyes and the nose are very strange.
The facial features, when combined, somewhat resemble a human face.
These two horns resembled a giant tree reaching for the sky, soaring straight into the Yunxiao.
"This is-------"
Upon seeing this figure, Ye Xuan immediately recognized who it was.
Legend has it that there is a remarkably powerful being among the Ancestral Witch.
It is said that when the eyes are open, it is daytime; when the eyes are closed, it is nighttime.
Take a breath and it's winter; exhale and it's the sweltering summer.
While the statement is quite exaggerated, it also demonstrates the power of this person.
This powerful figure's name was Zhu Jiuyin.
She is the Time Ancestral Witch among the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Houtu stood beside Zhu Jiuyin, gently stroking him.
"This is my second brother, the Time Ancestral Witch Zhu Jiuyin, and the only one among us siblings who can rival our eldest brother."
Houtu's words were filled with pride.
After all, Zhu Jiuyin had established a formidable reputation in ancient times.
Even now, during the era of the Investiture of the Gods, his story is still told.
The two then walked to the last piece of red cloth.
Houtu took a deep breath, then ripped it off.
What was hidden under the red cloth was soon revealed.
It was an incredibly large and vast earthen-yellow sphere.
This yellowish-brown sphere has no head, but it has an incredibly huge and ferocious abyssal maw.
This gaping maw seemed to occupy more than half of the body.
If this huge mouth were to split open, it's estimated that the entire body would consist of nothing but this mouth.
Beneath this enormous sphere are six extremely small legs, arranged side by side, supporting its massive body.
Behind the sphere grow four enormous wings.
The first two wings are exquisitely beautiful, resembling butterfly feathers.
Its wings spread out like eagle wings, blotting out the sky.
Compared to this figure, the incredibly ugly and terrifying bodies in front of it didn't seem so scary anymore.
"This one is the head of the Ancestral Witch, my elder brother Dijiang."
"He was also the first member of the Witch Clan in the Primordial World, and his strength was unfathomable. He was the only member of our Witch Clan to withstand a direct physical confrontation with the Chaos Bell without being defeated."
Hearing this, Ye Xuan nodded.
He had also heard the rumors about Dijiang.
It is said that Dijiang's true form is called Chaos.
It is the chief of the Four Fiends in the world.
Wherever Chaos passed, it utterly destroyed everything in its path.
There are even rumors that Dijiang obtained a small portion of Pangu's essence and blood.
Whether it is true or not remains unknown.
Dijiang cultivates the Law of Space, and it is said that the space nurtured within his body is also a terrifying existence.
Ye Xuan followed Houtu on her tour.
The eleven Ancestral Witch saw it all clearly and understood it perfectly.
Ye Xuan was deeply shaken every time he saw an Ancestral Witch.
After all, Ye Xuan was truly awestruck by these ancient creatures.
He took a deep breath and then turned around to look at Houtu.
"Then I'll begin?"
"Have you thought this through? Once the ceremony begins, it can't be interrupted."
Houtu looked at the statue placed there.
He then nodded solemnly.
"My requirements aren't many; I just want you to treat them well."
"Good."
Ye Xuan immediately closed his eyes, moved a little further away, and then prepared to lift the corpse.
The enormous cloak he was wearing began to flutter even without wind, and an invisible aura suddenly erupted.
The grotesque mask on his face made him look even more terrifying.
The Yin and Yang energies within his body also began to surge and flow violently.
The black fireflies in the left eye gradually appeared, and the glassy white light in the right eye also emerged.
Then a small, Purple Gold Bell appeared in Ye Xuan's left hand.
Upon seeing the bell appear, Houtu's eyes narrowed sharply.
