Chapter Eleven: The Witch's Artifact Emerges, Zi Xiao Reopens
But Emperor Jun and Taiyi, the two of them, showed great divine power in the Great War of the Purple Mansion, destroying the Purple Mansion and killing the Eastern King Gong. For a time, the two were known as the rulers of the vast expanse, their reputation unmatched, and more and more people came to join them, especially those with great spiritual powers. It must be said that before this, although the two had considerable strength, apart from the two brothers themselves, there were few powerful individuals, and many people were not willing to submit to them. After this battle, seeing how formidable the two were, even the Eastern King Gong, who was appointed by the Ancestor of the Dao to govern the male immortals of the vast expanse, was defeated, most people naturally wanted to join them and rely on this great tree of the heavens.
Thus, the power of Emperor Jun and Taiyi increased greatly, and the power of Emperor Jun and Taiyi had already become the first in the vast wilderness.
Unfortunately, this first had just sat down and was pulled down. Because at this time, the Wu tribe came out of the mountain again.
Originally, the number of witches was not many, but the eleventh ancestor witch came up with a method, that is to create new witches using the pure blood of existing witches. Although their strength would decrease greatly, this also solved the problem of witches' reproduction. As more and more witches were created from pure blood, the number of witches grew rapidly. It can be said that among the great witches above, there are as many people as there is blood. And the witches are born to like excitement, they are all generous and open-minded, seeing this method, they immediately started using it wildly. They didn't care about how much land or resources they had, they just started creating witches crazily, soon the number of witches became overwhelming, the land was tense, and they began to squeeze out other people's territories, also having a big war with some people several times. After that, the news reached the eleventh ancestor witch. The ancestral witches immediately restrained the action of creating witches among various tribes, even ordering them to stop creating witches. Even so, the population of witches still grew to a terrifying number. However, the existing land and resources could not support so many witches, after some discussion, the eleventh ancestor witch decided to re-enter the vast wilderness, they ordered each tribe to leave their own territory and occupy more and larger lands.
So, Di Jun and Tai Yi didn't even have time to enjoy the taste of being the first in the Primordial Era when they were disrupted by the rebirth of the Wu tribe. The Wu tribe, of course, didn't care that they had disturbed the beautiful dreams of Di Jun and Tai Yi. Maybe this Wu witch was born to be their arch-nemesis after all; as soon as the Yao tribe rose up, the Wu tribe followed suit.
The Wu tribe, after the Hong Huang, had their 11th ancestor Wu Ma lift the ban on creating more Wu. The vast lands of the Hong Huang were boundless and could easily accommodate these Wu tribes, so why worry about not having enough people? Thus, every branch of the Wu tribe began to create more Wu, until there was no longer enough spiritual energy to do so.
This time, the Witch's action shocked Honghuang, and the population of the entire Witch tribe suddenly jumped from the low position in Honghuang to second place, only after the Demon tribe. The various tribes on the vast land of Honghuang were flustered and looked at the large population of the Witch tribe, which was growing more and more, and was still growing continuously, making them feel suffocated. In the past, although the Witch tribe was feared, its population was sparse and it was difficult to threaten the various tribes of Honghuang. Now, however, the Witch tribe's population can actually rank second among the hundred tribes of Honghuang. Who else in Honghuang can resist the Witch tribe? It is likely that there will be no more enemies.
The various tribes on the vast land of Honghuang had to bow their heads and surrender one after another. For a time, the territory of the Wu tribe expanded countless times, dominating the entire land of Honghuang, even the demon tribe that was in its heyday could not resist.
Penglai Island, Tongtian has already come out of seclusion. At present, his cultivation is no longer useful to him. He didn't expect to make a breakthrough in his cultivation this time he went into seclusion, but rather to comprehend the teachings of the Dao ancestors and perfect his own "Hunyuan Jue". After becoming a quasi-saint, wanting to further advance is extremely difficult, relying on opportunities and enlightenment, not just closed-door bitter practice. Shan Shi can still rely on merit to cut out, but for oneself, without great opportunity, great willpower, and high-level enlightenment, it's possible that one doesn't even know what "self" is, let alone cutting it off. In the past, only the Dao ancestors truly cut off the three corpses, while others became saints through great merit, differing only in the amount of merit used.
At this time, Tongtian was standing by the small lake in the center of the island, looking at the nearly mature 12th-grade black lotus. The dense water elements in the three-light divine water were being continuously absorbed by the 12th-grade black lotus, which emitted a faint black glow. Suddenly, the 12th-grade black lotus burst into a brilliant black light, and the entire Penglai Island was plunged into darkness. When the light dissipated, the 12th-grade black lotus seemed to have transformed into an ordinary lotus flower. Tongtian was overjoyed, knowing that the black lotus had matured. He flew forward, took out the 12th-grade black lotus, and looked at it in his hand, which emitted a faint black glow. "Hahaha!" Tongtian's mouth was twisted into a smile. He then turned to look at the small lake formed by the three-light divine water, and his eyes flashed with an eerie green light. This was indeed the three-light divine water, and there was so much of it! Even in the vast expanse of the Honghuang Great Land, this would be a unique treasure. He took out a black gourd that he had prepared earlier and thought for a moment, "Should I take it all? ... Ah, never mind, let's just take what we need, and leave some for later." Tongtian comforted himself, then opened the gourd. The gourd emitted a radiant light that enveloped the small lake, and the water began to be absorbed into the gourd like a whale swallowing water. The lake surface began to drop rapidly, but when it had dropped to one-fifth of its original level, Tongtian stopped immediately. He looked at the black gourd with satisfaction, "Hahaha! Now we're rich too!" Tongtian burst into laughter.
"What's making brother so happy? Can you also tell little sister about it?" Just then, a clear voice came from behind, Tongtian immediately shut his mouth and turned around to see Hou Tu standing behind him with an innocent look on her face. Tongtian felt embarrassed for a moment.
"Sister, it's nothing, just the twelve black lotus have just matured." Tongtian said with some embarrassment.
"Hehe, brother, can't you behave normally in front of Lingbao? This is not good, hehehe." Hou Tu's teasing made Tongtian's face turn bright red with embarrassment. Suddenly, Tongtian was overjoyed and asked Hou Tu: "Has sister already beheaded the corpse and become a quasi-saint?"
"Hmm, this time in seclusion was very rewarding. Not only did my Taoist cultivation improve, but I also used my brother's and my congenital divine demon body to behead the benevolent corpse. Now my sister is also a quasi-saint." Hou Tu returned with excitement.
"Great, congratulations little sister! With your current cultivation and spiritual treasure, I'm afraid there are few opponents in the entire Honghuang.!" Tongtian sighed, then asked somewhat doubtfully: "However, little sister, what about the good corpse you beheaded?"
"Is that so? What's wrong with that? Must we cut down the evil corpse first?" Hou Tu asked in confusion. Tong Tian furrowed his brow, thinking that since Hou Tu hadn't experienced any great wars, the evil corpse might be a bit difficult for him. But Hou Tu's kindness was unmatched throughout the Hong Huang world; otherwise, he wouldn't have been reborn as Zu Wu, seeking a thread of life for all living beings and establishing the cycle of reincarnation for souls after death, earning the respect of the people as Hou Tu, the benevolent goddess. It's different with him, evil corpses should be easier for Hou Tu to handle. Thinking this, Tong Tian smiled: "Don't worry, everyone has their own path, they're all different. The Dao Zu never said anything about the order of cutting down corpses, there's no problem."
"Oh, so brother, you killed an evil corpse?"
"Yes, your brother has gone through the last tribulation and has killed countless people. Beheading evil corpses is relatively easy for me, while being kind to corpses is easier for you, little sister. This also reflects the difference in our paths."
Two people chatted as they walked towards the main hall, entering the main hall, both sat upright on the mat. Tongtian first asked Houtu: "Sister, how do you view Laozi's two original brothers?" Houtu listened and began to ponder.
"Little sister thinks that the two of us, as well as my two elder brothers, are all from the same origin and have a good relationship with each other. Does big brother have any opinions?" Hou Tu replied, also sensing Tong Tian's underlying tone, and asked again.
"Alas, sister, you're too kind-hearted. Although our original two elders are now treating us with sincerity, it's hard to say what will happen in the future! Besides, haven't you thought about it? Even though we were born from the same body and can be considered siblings, we've been separated since the beginning of time, so our emotions can't be that good. But they're being so nice to us now, how can there not be any ulterior motives?"
"What? What are we going to do then? Keep a distance from them? Or..."
"Hehe, little sister, don't be nervous. If I'm not mistaken, they're doing this to win us over. You see, we are all transformed from Pangu Yuan Shen, born noble, but now in the vast wilderness, even the likes of Shi Huang and Taiyi have more prestige than us. As a proud person, how could they not have any ideas about this situation? However, these two are isolated and weak, and can't do anything about it. After all, the witch and demon tribes are too powerful to contend with. But in my heart, I'm not willing to give up, so I think they want to win us over to join forces against them. So, at least for now, they won't have any ill intentions towards us."
"So, what should we do then?"
"Just leave it as is, I'm the original one, no matter how you say it, it's all my elder brother. It's not bad for both of us, if we can help, then help. Hehe, actually, the two of us are a bit anxious, as long as we become saints, everything will be easy to handle. The Primordial Chaos is the saint's Primordial Chaos, you see the current Daozu and you'll know, the power of the saints is not something that the witch and demon tribes can contend with."
"My younger sister has the blood of Pangu's essence, and is also half a witch. As for the affairs of the witches, my younger sister..." Hou Tu said with concern.
"Sister, don't worry, nothing will happen to the Wu tribe. Brother has already thought of a way out for them, and my two older brothers also said that no matter what, they will support you on the issue of the Wu tribe. With four saints supporting us, there's no problem."
"Brother is so considerate of me, I'm really ashamed in my heart. Thank you, brother." The sound of the back soil was a little choked, and then he got up and bowed to express his gratitude.
"You and I, siblings, why must it be so?" Tongtian hastily got up to help Houtu, "The two of us have been together since Pangu opened the sky, many years of feelings, little sister, you don't have to be like this in the future, older brother can't bear it!"
"Hehe, thank you brother, little sister knows." Hou Tu said with a smile.
Suddenly, a faint sound echoed across the vast expanse of Honghuang: "A thousand years have passed, I shall lecture on the Great Way in the Purple Mist Palace. Those who are destined may come and listen!"
Tongtian and Houtu exchanged a glance, and Tongtian said, "Teacher's words are right, we must not be slow, it's better to go quickly." "Good." The two immediately got up and left Penglai Island, driving their auspicious clouds towards the Purple Palace outside the Thirty-Three Heavens. At this time, on the vast continent of Honghuang, countless mountain peaks flew out with a radiant glow, driving clouds towards the Thirty-Three Heavens. From high above, it looked like a dense and bustling crowd. This was the last time that the old ancestor Hongjun would lecture on the Great Way, and everyone was eager not to fall behind, all hurrying towards the Purple Palace in a flurry of activity.
On the road, Tongtian kept thinking, "After this lecture, the Taoist ancestor will merge with the Heavenly Way, and if it's not a catastrophe in heaven and earth, the Zixu Palace won't come out. The witches and demons in Honghuang will officially start their great war, and the demon tribe's current strength is hard to resist the witch tribe. So this time, the witch tribe will definitely win a big victory. Take this opportunity to find Emperor Jun, teach him the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array, and hint at him to establish the Heavenly Court. This way, Donghuang Taiyi will also gain some merit. In this way, the cause and effect between me and him can be settled. Who knows, establishing the Heavenly Court may even have my own merit! Hehe, it's really a double whammy!" At this time, he had already arrived at the front of the Zixu Palace, Tongtian put away his thoughts and stepped forward into the palace...
