The Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation, Complete!
"Kill!"
"Kill!!"
"Kill!!!"
In just a few moments, the Witch Clan's experts charged toward the Demon Race under Dijiang's lead.
"Warriors of the Demon Race! The Witch Clan is brutal and vicious. They feed on our people and have slain our demon gods! If we do not avenge this grudge, how can we answer to our warriors? The Demon Race and the Witch Clan cannot live under the same sky!"
Seeing Dijiang flying toward him, Dijun stepped down from his dragon carriage and stood proudly in the air, his voice ringing out.
"Kill-"
A roar of rage rose from the Demon Race in response!
"Boom!"
In an instant, the Witch Clan and the Demon Race crashed into each other.
Blood-colored mist filled every corner of the Primordial Wilderness Continent, and murderous intent was laid bare.
The Witch Clan's warriors were brave and skilled in battle, immensely strong and unafraid of death; the Demon Race, however, had overwhelming numbers, countless billions of them, as well as Law Treasures and innate Divine Abilities to make up for their lack of strength.
"Kill!"
"Die!"
"Hack him to death for me!"
"..."
Once the great battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Race began, flesh and blood flew across the battlefield, which rang with the clash of spells, cries of slaughter and furious roars!
Caught up in the atmosphere, both sides had long since gone mad with killing. The soldiers' eyes were blood-red, as though they remembered nothing but slaughter and wanted only to make the enemy get out of their way. They watched living beings rise and fall, while the reek of blood assailed the minds of every creature fighting there.
The two sides were evenly matched, neither able to overcome the other. With barely any transition, the battle went straight to a white-hot pitch, and the fighting became incomparably brutal!
At that moment, life seemed to have become the least treasured thing of all. Every second, thousands upon thousands of living beings fell into pools of blood, their bodies perishing and their Daos extinguished.
"Shameless whelps of the Demon Race, today I'll show you who the true overlord of the Primordial Wilderness is!"
High in the void, thirty thousand feet above, Dijiang stood proudly, countless spatial blades circling his body. His face was cold and still, his eyes shining with fierce light as he glared at Dijun and Taiyi.
"Utterly laughable!"
Facing Dijiang, whose imposing presence soared into the heavens and whose fighting spirit blazed as though he were unstoppable, Dijun slowly raised the Demon Emperor Sword in his hand and pointed it at him at an angle.
The Demon Emperor Sword was itself a high-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, and now that Dijun held it, its light shone brilliantly.
Dijun sneered. "The Witch Clan acts perversely and has always defied the Heavenly Dao. Not only do you ignore heaven's decrees and fail to understand its secrets, you do not even cultivate the Heavenly Dao. You are no more than a flower that blooms for a fleeting moment, destined to vanish from the Primordial World! There is only one overlord of the Primordial Wilderness, and that is the Demon Race!"
"Hum!"
As soon as he spoke, an illusory image of Dijun's body surged upward, and a vast, majestic imperial presence suddenly rose from him.
Behind him, the golden phantom of the sun blazed with dazzling brilliance, illuminating the endless night.
He had clearly reached the peak of the early-stage Quasi-Sage realm!
"Rumble!"
Not to be outdone, the eleven other ancestral witches sprang into action, joining battle with Taiyi, Fuxi and the other supreme experts.
For a time, the ancient starry sky seemed to have been set ablaze!
Their battle was even more terrifying. Every supreme expert possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.
As Law Power poured forth, countless stars in the sky were caught in the wake. The shattered stars were blasted into powder, which hung in the starry sky like a rising mist.
For a time, stars collapsed and the void shattered.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
"Crash!"
"Dong, dong, dong!"
The Eastern Emperor Bell in Taiyi's hand unleashed its might as well. A series of peals rang out, Dao rhythms rolled and surged, and he managed to hold back the attacks of six ancestral witches by himself.
"Clang!"
"Clatter!"
With the Demon Emperor Sword in hand, Dijun likewise stood against four ancestral witches, locked in battle with their power of order.
As for Fuxi, he faced two ancestral witches.
The battle continued for months, yet still showed no sign of ending.
In the starry sky and across the Primordial Wilderness Land, blood flowed like rivers and mangled flesh piled up like mountains. The sounds of Primordial Spirits shattering and weapons striking the ground rang out again and again as experts perished.
It was like a purgatory on earth!
No!
This scene was purgatory on earth!
Fierce Sha Qi filled the universe. Countless billions of beings from the Witch Clan and the Demon Race were blinded by slaughter, their minds clouded.
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
"Truly, it is brutal!"
Lady Nüwa had been watching the great battle all along. At last, she could not help saying, "The Demon Race and the Witch Clan have so many living beings, yet now they are controlled by the desire to kill. How can they be the masters of heaven and earth?"
"Hmm?" Hearing Lady Nüwa say this, Lin Yunji was a little surprised.
He truly had not expected Lady Nüwa to develop such thoughts so quickly.
Lin Yunji swept his gaze over the battlefield, but merely smiled faintly and said nothing in reply.
Like Lin Yunji and Lady Nüwa, many mighty figures and experts elsewhere were watching the great battle between the two races at all times.
Shocked by the brutality of the battle, the experts began to discuss it.
"The battle is so brutal that it would not be an exaggeration to call it a calamity of heaven and earth!"
"Compared with the Dragon-Han Calamity of High Antiquity, I'm afraid it might be even worse!"
"Living beings are vanishing at every moment!"
"I only hope the experts of the two races can settle this quickly... This has gone a little too far..."
"..."
"Rumble!"
Looking around, one could see the Quasi-Sage experts of the two races locked in battle among the stars high in the void.
Amid the immense rumbling, the stars trembled and the sun and moon lost their luster. Clouds stained by Sha Qi turned into vast stretches of inky blackness, pressing down on the vault of heaven. It was like the end of the world, filled with endless oppression.
Those supreme experts could make clouds with a turn of their hands and rain with another, crushing the starry sky and shattering space.
The fighting went on for a long time.
Dijiang and the other eleven ancestral witches, relying on their superior numbers, had gained a slight upper hand.
Even with Dijun wielding the Demon Emperor Sword and Taiyi holding the Eastern Emperor Bell, they were beginning to struggle.
At this rate, the Demon Race would be driven onto the back foot until it was defeated.
Dijun's face was cold and still as he swung the Demon Emperor Sword, leaving afterimages in its wake. In an instant, he unleashed thirty-thousand-foot sword radiance. Sword Qi streaked out like rainbows, temporarily giving the four ancestral witches trouble. Seizing the opening, he shouted to Taiyi and the other experts, "Second brother! Fellow Daoist Fuxi! Let us join forces to form the Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation and use the power of the stars to kill the Witch Clan within it!"
"Agreed!"
Taiyi, Fuxi and the other experts answered.
The Witch Clan naturally heard Dijun's words as well. How could they let them succeed?
But the Demon Race's experts seemed to have prepared for this long ago. Using their own methods, they swiftly broke free and hovered in the void, forming hand seals.
At that moment, a golden light projected from between Dijun's brows, and two indistinct shapes appeared within its thirty-thousand-foot radiance.
They were a book and a diagram!
A closer look revealed at once that they were the River Diagram and the Luo Shu!
The River Diagram and the Luo Shu revealed their true forms and rapidly expanded to hundreds of thousands of feet, covering heaven and earth and blotting out the starry sky.
Within their treasured light were incomparably profound Dao patterns, like countless stars rising and falling in turn, each undergoing its own transformation.
"Whoosh!"
"Boom!"
"Ding!"
Just as the River Diagram and the Luo Shu appeared, more than three hundred figures also flew up from the battlefield between the two races below. Each landed on a star, making three hundred and sixty-five in total with Dijun, Taiyi and Fuxi.
Their positions were arranged with great skill. As soon as they were in place, Dijun shouted in a low voice, "Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation-"
"Form!" he roared, offering up the Demon Emperor Sword in his hand.
"Hum!"
In an instant, the River Diagram and the Luo Shu, which blotted out the sky in the void, became dazzling. They shot out three hundred and sixty-five rays of light, connecting with the three hundred and sixty-five experts.
Stars, experts, the Luo Shu, the River Diagram.
The Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation was complete!
Just as the grand formation came together, Lin Yunji suddenly heard a sound in his mind-
[Beep! The system has detected a grand formation (Zhou Heavenly Star Grand Formation) forming near the host. The system is copying it...]
