Seventy-first end

  As for Hong Jun Dao Zu's move, Zhu Jiu Yin coldly snorted and said: "Hong Jun, at this time you still want to take back the 'God-Killing Gun'? You really think I'm a dead man, don't be dreaming, after being tricked by you once, I won't make the same mistake again!"

  For Chu Jiu, he was indeed calculated by Hong Jun Dao Zu and paid a terrible price, so he won't make the same mistake again, at least not for now.

  When Hong Jun Dao Zu used the 'Regicide Gun' to pierce his heart, Zhu Jiu Yin used this divine heart to lock the 'Regicide Gun', a pre-heavenly spiritual treasure, and not let Hong Jun Dao Zu take it back.

  "The Regicide Gun" is a congenital spiritual treasure with considerable destructive power, and can be said to be one of the most powerful instruments in Hong Jun's hands, second only to "Pangu Fan", this congenital treasure. If it weren't for its lack of the function of suppressing the aura, I'm afraid the value of this congenital spiritual treasure would be even greater.

  However, Shu Jiu Yin didn't dare to underestimate this treasure. After all, it could pierce his own heart, which was not something that ordinary innate spiritual treasures could do. He had a deep understanding of this treasure and could clearly feel the infinite killing intent contained within the "Regicide Spear".

  For a congenital spiritual treasure that poses such a great threat to himself, how could Zhu Jiu Yin possibly let it fall back into the hands of Hong Jun Dao Zu? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble? He paid such a huge price, how could he possibly let himself lose out in this regard again? So at this time, Zhu Jiu Yin was determined to keep this treasure.

  In this battle, Hong Jun Dao Zu's means were played very well, and Zhu Jiu Yin was manipulated in the palm of his hand. However, no matter how good the means were, they were useless because he encountered a madman like Zhu Jiu Yin. Faced with the endless means and strength, Zhu Jiu Yin only had one trick, that is, ruthlessness, not only to others but also to himself. He was willing to sacrifice his own life, daring to pull Hong Jun Dao Zu down from his horse.

  What's most important is that Candle Nine Yin has achieved this, pulling Hong Jun Dao Zu down from the altar of a sage to the mortal world. Although he may have paid a great price for it, he told Hong Jun Dao Zu that being a sage isn't anything special, as long as he can give up his life, he can also pull him off his horse.

  Candle Nine Yin's move broke the image of the invincible saint in the hearts of the Honghuang people, which is the greatest gain. With this gain, even if the Three Purities and others attain enlightenment and become saints in the future, they will not dare to take action against Candle Nine Yin, after all, Hongjun Daozu is their predecessor.

  When Hong Jun heard Zhuo Jiu Yin's words, he let out a heavy hum and shouted loudly: "Zhuo Jiu Yin, you're ruthless! We'll see about that!"

  As for Hong Jun Dao Zu's threat, Zhu Jiu Yin didn't put it in his heart at all. For him, both sides had already torn their faces and didn't need to make any disguise. He said disdainfully: "I'm waiting!"

  In the face of Candle Nine's powerful counterattack, Hong Jun Dao Zu felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. He had calculated everything, but ultimately underestimated Candle Nine and suffered a great defeat at his hands, falling from his revered position as a Saint.

  Having lost the respect of a saint, Hong Jun Dao Zu felt endless pressure, especially the pressure from Zhu Jiu Yin was too great. He coldly looked at Zhu Jiu Yin and turned to head towards Zi Xuan Palace without looking back.

  It's not that Hong Jun Dao Zu is incapable of killing Zhu Jiu Yin, but rather he truly doesn't dare to now. He has a thread of fear in his heart, as Zhu Jiu Yin is indeed too ruthless, a thorough madman who can do anything. For such a person, if there isn't a surefire way to kill him, Hong Jun Dao Zu won't easily take action, and even more so, he won't risk his own life.

  Although Candle Nine Yin is now extremely weak, Hong Jun Dao Zu knows that Candle Nine Yin still has an ace up his sleeve that he hasn't used yet. At the very least, the 'Black Lotus' that Candle Nine Yin obtained from Luo Hou's hands has never been brought out.

  The power of the Black Lotus was something that Hong Jun Dao Zu had experienced during the Dragon and Phoenix Calamity, so he was very clear about the might of this spiritual treasure. Most importantly, if he were to push Candle Nine Yin into a desperate situation with no way out, would this madman self-destruct with this congenital spiritual treasure? For an unpredictable madman like him, Hong Jun Dao Zu naturally had his concerns. After all, what he pursued was the verification of the Way, not sacrificing himself for others and perishing together with Candle Nine Yin - that was something Hong Jun Dao Zu did not wish to do.

  It was because Hong Jun Dao Zu had such thoughts in his heart that he was not as decisive as Zhu Jiu Yin, nor as ruthless. He didn't have the same spirit of advancing forward without hesitation like Zhu Jiu Yin, and couldn't be as merciless and selfless as Zhu Jiu Yin either.

  The difference, that's the difference. In this situation, Hong Jun Dao Zu can only let go of Zhuo Jiu Yin and try to use someone else's hands to clean up Zhuo Jiu Yin. That's why there was such a provocative speech earlier, trying to lure Zhuo Jiu Yin's enemies into taking drastic action against him, using the tactic of "borrowing a knife to kill".

  Unfortunately, Hongjun Daozu's plan was good, but it didn't necessarily mean he would succeed. In this battle, all the creatures of the vast wilderness saw how crazy Zhuo Jiu Yin was, able to engage in a bloody fight with Hongjun Daozu, a saint, and even willing to sacrifice himself to pull Hongjun Daozu down from his sacred status. Such a madman was someone nobody wanted to provoke, no matter how weak he was; there was no one who would dare to be the first to take him on, or make sacrifices for others.

  Of course, Zhu Jiu Yin's own ruthlessness made many people cautious, and the strong momentum of the Wu tribe also made many people cautious. After all, Zhu Jiu Yin was not alone, he had Emperor Jiang and other ancestral witches behind him. Even if one could really get rid of Zhu Jiu Yin, the person who took action would absolutely not survive.

  Although Hong Jun Dao Zu had saved Fu Xi and Nüwa in the past, that was in the past. The situation is different now, and Hong Jun Dao Zu is no longer revered as a saint. They naturally don't bother to be the first to take action.

  Hong Jun Dao Zu returned to the Purple Mansion, and Chu Jiu Yin did not leave in a hurry. He coldly swept his gaze over the vast expanse of Hong Huang, and said in a low voice: "Whoever is not afraid of death can come find me, I am not afraid to bear more killings!"

  Rong Jiuyin's strength at this time was beyond many people's expectations, and it was precisely Rong Jiuyin's strength that intimidated those like Xiao Zao.

  The people of Honghuang learned a lot from Zhu Jiu Yin's body, and Zhu Jiu Yin's spirit of fearlessness and bravery in the face of adversity shocked many.

  Jiǔ Yīn stood alone in the sky for a long time, and only when he saw that there was no reaction on the vast earth below did he slowly leave.

  Candle Nine Yin walked very slowly, and from this point alone, the people of Honghuang knew how badly he was injured. Thinking back to the previous great war, everyone understood how much damage Candle Nine Yin had suffered, and even now, his body still had that "Regicide Spear" - a Primordial Spiritual Treasure - lodged in it.

  Although the Xiantian Lingbao moved people's hearts, compared to one's own life, it was not worth mentioning. In this way, Zhu Jiu Yin slowly returned to his own tribe under the gaze of everyone.

  The injury of Zhu Jiu Yin has touched the hearts of many people. Emperor Jiang and other ancestral witches are worried that Zhu Jiu Yin will be injured to the point of affecting the development of the witch tribe. As for Fu Xi and others who have a grudge against Zhu Jiu Yin, they can't wait for Zhu Jiu Yin to suffer heavy losses in this battle, so that they themselves will have enough time to catch up.

  Although Zhu Jiu Yin was seriously injured, he informed Emperor Jiang and other ancestral witches not to worry about his injuries when returning to the tribe. It was because of Zhu Jiu Yin's actions that although many people knew that the witch tribe had suffered heavy losses in this battle, no one dared to take drastic action against the witch tribe, nor did they dare to seize their territory, because they were unclear about the extent of Zhu Jiu Yin's injuries.

  Although Chu Jiuyin appeared very powerful, he himself was well aware of the impact of this battle on him. His divine heart being broken caused his physical body to be severely injured, and the most serious thing was that it exposed his divine way to the extreme, which also damaged his divine way cultivation. If he hadn't obtained the recognition of the Great Dao earlier and been supported by the Great Dao's laws, he feared that his divine way cultivation would have taken a big step backward in this battle.

  No matter how severe the injury was, Chu Jiu Yin did not have a single worry because he was very clear about what he had gained from this battle. Not only had he obtained enough time for himself, but he also had a deep understanding of his combat skills. He believed that if he were to face Hong Jun Dao Zu again next time, he would not be as passive as before.

  After the battle between Hong Jun Dao Zu and Zhu Jiu Yin, the Hongyuan became relatively calm. Everyone shrank their heads, not daring to act recklessly again, fearing that they would provoke the wrath of the Wu tribe. After all, in this war, the Wu tribe had been holding back a bellyful of anger with nowhere to vent it.
