Chapter Eighty-two: The Master of Reincarnation

  Emperor Jiang's speed was the fastest, in an instant he appeared on the battlefield. Seeing the situation around him, his heart was also moved. He didn't immediately speak to his clansmen, but instead raised the Qiankun Ding. With a surge of magical power, countless spiritual blood suddenly appeared from all directions and poured into it. After a long time, there was no more spiritual blood flying out. Emperor Jiang turned the mouth of the cauldron again, and with another fierce suction, instantly the billions of corpses of the Wu and Yao tribes were sucked in. The battlefield was suddenly clear, but the land was still red and black, filled with the aura of death and killing energy that could not be eliminated.

  "Zǔ wū" whether it is Xíng Tiān Jiǔ Fèng and other great witches, or those ordinary tribesmen, all of them bowed to the Emperor Jiang with heavy sadness in their eyes.

  "Don't worry, I'll take care of the deceased tribespeople." Emperor Jiang patted his hand, and all the tribespeople felt a surge of energy, involuntarily standing up straight. Although Emperor Jiang said so, he was still feeling distressed in his heart. The deceased tribespeople could be cleansed of their karma by the Wheel of Rebirth Merit Pool, allowing them to enter the cycle of rebirth in the Witchcraft Dao, but to regain memories of their past lives, they would have to cultivate to the level of a Heavenly Immortal. Out of the 400 million tribespeople, he feared that only half could achieve this.

  Everyone looked at Emperor Jiang silently, waiting for him to continue speaking.

  "You all go back and arrange things properly, from now on, all the tribes will move back to Buzhou Mountain. Buzhou Mountain is the transformed spine of Pangu's father god, this is our ancestral land. As for the human tribe, they already have some survival ability, let them develop on their own."

  Everyone who heard it understood Emperor Jiang's intention. Now that the war is raging, the scope of involvement is extremely wide, and the human tribe living with the witch tribe naturally suffered heavy casualties. Separating them to prevent such things from happening again in the future was a good idea. However, there were many people from the witch tribe who had intermarried with humans, so it was difficult for them to leave immediately.

  At this time, several old men from the human tribe rushed over. They were among the first people created by Nüwa, with extraordinary talents, and under her care, they had long lives, serving as the leaders of the human tribe. Seeing that the great war had stopped, they came to ask the You tribe about the situation, but unexpectedly heard Emperor Jiang's words about making the You tribe move back to Mount Buzhou. They were suddenly frightened and hurriedly came forward to bow down in front of Emperor Jiang.

  "We beg of you, Emperor Jiang, our human tribe was born weak and small, unable to contend with the ferocious beasts of the wilderness. If the Wu tribe were to leave us, how would we survive? Moreover, the two tribes have been intermarried for many years, connected by blood ties. Many humans have Wu tribe blood in their veins, and many newly-born Wu tribe members also have human blood in their veins. Why must you forcibly separate us?" The old man spoke with tears streaming down his face, sincerely imploring Emperor Jiang to rescind the order.

  The Emperor Jiang looked at the old man, feeling very helpless. The witchcraft calamity had indeed begun. If they continued to coexist with humans, when the war between humans and demons broke out again, there would inevitably be heavy casualties on both sides. Moreover, the karma of human casualties would still have to be borne by the witch tribe, which was detrimental to both tribes. After deliberating for a long time, he said: "I will leave some witches with humans to take care of them and help them deal with some ferocious beasts in the vast wilderness."

  Emperor Jiang finished speaking and immediately summoned twelve Golden Immortal Peak powerhouses from the Wu tribe, who were among the strongest in the Wu tribe aside from the Ancestral Witch and the Great Witch. He left them with the Human Tribe, and Emperor Jiang had his own plans, hoping that these twelve people could accumulate merit and escape their fate.

  The Emperor Jiang looked at the twelve people in front of him and said without a doubt: "Forget your previous names, from now on, you will be called Zi Mouse, Chou Cow, Yin Tiger, Mao Rabbit, Chen Dragon, Si Snake, Wu Horse, Wei Sheep, Shen Monkey, You Chicken, Xu Dog, Hai Pig. In the human tribe's village, guard it, without my summons, do not leave the human tribe's village at will."

  The twelve members of the Wu tribe looked at Di Jiang, saw his serious expression, and although they didn't know the meaning of these names, they still said seriously: "We obey the orders of our ancestors."

  Dijiang nodded and looked at the human tribe leaders, "In addition to these twelve people, I will also arrange for some people to stay in the human tribe to live, is that okay?"

  Several elderly people knew that Emperor Jiang's mind was made up, and it would be good to leave these Shu tribe guardians for the human tribe, and they did not dare to ask for more. They bid farewell and retreated.

  After resolving the affairs of the human tribe, Emperor Jiang looked at the billions of people in front of him again. The nine great witches stood at the forefront, with their heads held high and their chests out, with a faint aura of killing still lingering on their bodies. Xing Tian and Bai Qi had broken through to the quasi-saint realm, while the remaining Jiufeng, Hou Yi, Kuafu, Feng Bo, Yu Shi, Xiang Liu, and Ying Zheng all possessed the strength of the Golden Immortal Peak. Only then did he feel a bit better in his heart, but this body's karma was difficult to eliminate.

  At this time, Gonggong and others also rushed over, seeing that the witches of both tribes were in a miserable state, and they did not jump into rage as Emperor Jiang had expected, but instead became silent one by one.

  Before long, Emperor Jun and Taiyi arrived, also in silence, with the heavily injured Eight Great Demon Generals and the remaining 5 billion demon soldiers, and retreated back to Heaven without a word.

  From then on, the Desolate Era returned to calmness once more. The demonic tribes resided in the Heavenly Court and the Thirty-Three Heavens, all of them cultivating in seclusion, rarely coming out to roam the lands of the Desolate Era. The millions of people from the Witch tribe also retreated into the Untraversable Mountains at this time. The entire Desolate Era was very calm. However, various cultivators still did not dare to exit their mountain gates. Today, omens filled the air, and even low-level cultivators could sense something amiss. The entire Desolate Era felt like it was on the eve of a violent storm, oppressive and frightening.

  Emperor Jiang sat in the Ancestral Witch Temple, but he was observing Emperor Wu through the connection between their minds. Emperor Wu was like a sleeping person, quietly lying on a mass of mysterious yellow energy, with countless chaotic spiritual energies drilling into his body to refine his flesh.

  His magical powers had increased a lot, but unfortunately, it was too slow. Emperor Jiang opened his eyes and furrowed his brow unconsciously. If things continued like this, he feared that he wouldn't be able to play any role in the Witch-Yao Calamity. If he couldn't quickly increase his strength, he would be plotted against by the Saints until he was dead. Not to mention the Six Saints, but even Hong Jun might have some scheme brewing inside. One misstep and not only the billions of witches on Mount Zhou, but even his own ancestral witches would be unable to escape disaster.

  Emperor Jiang flipped his hand and took out the Qiankun Ding. He didn't know if the Devouring Way he had comprehended could devour this pre-heavenly treasure. If it could, he estimated that his strength would increase immediately, and perhaps he wouldn't need to use the Three Corpses Merge as One technique to break through the shackles of the Dao and prove his Dao with force.

  This method is too risky, swallowing the innate treasure will tie up a great deal of karma with the Heavenly Way, and when the time comes, it's possible that even the Heavenly Way will impose heavenly punishment to destroy itself. However, Emperor Jiang has made up his mind, if in the future he really reaches the end of his rope, he will swallow this innate treasure even if it means suffering heavenly punishment, perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.

  His Majesty Emperor Jiang roared in his heart, but he thought of the reincarnation, this reincarnation was like a world, with endless power of reincarnation. He himself had transformed into reincarnation back then and could be considered the master of reincarnation. He didn't know if he could borrow the power of reincarnation, but at that time, he estimated that he would have the strength to rival Hong Jun.

  Thinking of this, Emperor Jiang suddenly flew into the cycle of reincarnation and didn't go to find Hou Tu. He sat alone on top of the Youming realm, quietly feeling the connection between them. In just a moment, he felt many light spots floating around him.

  "This is the reincarnation of Qi Yun" Di Jiang was suddenly surprised, didn't expect that in the cycle of rebirth, there would be such a thing as Qi Yun, and it was completely independent of Hong Huang.

  I didn't expect to occupy so much of the cycle's luck. Emperor Jiang smiled slightly, feeling that 70% of the cycle's luck had gathered on himself, but this luck seemed to have no other effect except to help speed up his cultivation. Emperor Jiang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, his eyes lit up again in an instant, and it seemed that this luck was something that could not be lacking for becoming the Overlord of the Desolate Expanse. Whether it was the Three Ancient Clans of the past or the current Witch and Yao tribes, they all became the Overlords of the Desolate Expanse after gathering enough luck.

  At this thought, Emperor Jiang suddenly became excited. As the overlord of the Desolate Expanse, he had once used this to suppress the two Western Saints, almost causing the entire Western Church's luck to collapse. This was just the might produced by possessing 40% of the Desolate Expanse's luck. If he could take down 100% of the luck in one go, wouldn't he become the master of the Desolate Expanse? At that time, everything in the Desolate Expanse would be under his control, and he would be on an equal footing with Heaven's Way.

  But becoming the master of the vast wilderness was just a casual thought, after all, in the ancient times, the three tribes including Luo Yu were not successful, and although I have more strength than them, I am worried that the saint is pressing on my head, wanting to succeed, it's even harder.

  As for Luo Yu, Emperor Jiang couldn't help but think of Hong Jun. His heart suddenly skipped a beat as he thought about how Hong Jun had been plotting against the two tribes of witches and demons, causing heavy casualties and numerous karma, could it be that his main goal was also to seize the opportunity? If the two tribes of witches and demons lost all their opportunities, then naturally the opportunities would go to the human tribe. When the human tribe's opportunity arrived, it would be taken by the three teachings of Ren, Xuan, and Jie, as well as the Western teaching, and the leaders of these four teachings were his disciples. If he plotted again, causing the four teachings to perish, then the opportunities of the vast expanse might very likely gather on him alone, at which point he would become the true master of the vast expanse.

  Thinking of this, Emperor Jiang was puzzled again. This is also a bit too much trouble, and his strength in the vast wilderness has already been the first, why should he still pretend to be the master of the vast wilderness?

  Can't think through Emperor Jiang, won't go to drill what bull's horn, if Hong Jun really has a plan, later will naturally present one by one, but gathering all the energy can become the master of the vast wilderness, this guess should be correct. Thinking of this, Emperor Jiang couldn't help but pay attention to the cycle of energy. The yin gods in the cycle are all members of the Wu tribe, and other energies are also concentrated on Hou Tu and Tian Wu, if you want to gather 10% of the cycle's energy, it seems very simple.

  No longer hesitant, he immediately entered the Hall of Reincarnation, also known as the Heavenly Wu, and together with Hou Tu, they began to discuss in the hall.

  Houtu and others understood his thoughts, so they naturally wouldn't object. However, this aura was mysterious and couldn't be transferred just by saying it would be. Emperor Jiang didn't say much more, instead sitting down to cultivate in the Youming realm. At the same time, he used his spatial divine ability, causing a series of illusory projections to appear around him. These projections had clear meridian points on their bodies, with a ball of vital energy running along the lines of the Jiuzhuan Xuan Gong technique. It was as if they were using an unconventional method to guide the cultivation of the Yīn Shén.

  In those years, Da Zu used the method of lecturing on Tao to gather many Hong Huang Qi Yun. Now, I will learn from him and use similar methods to gather the wheel-turning Qi Yun.

  From then on, the Netherworld gained an Emperor Jiang who cultivated in mid-air. All the witch tribe's yin spirits knew that Emperor Jiang's ancestral witch was using her divine powers to guide everyone's cultivation. Many yin spirits would watch with rapt attention during their free time and always gain something from it, increasing their admiration for Emperor Jiang even more.

  However, after 30,000 years, Emperor Jiang felt the wheel of fate and fortune on his body slowly increasing. Suddenly, a loud roar sounded, and a million-foot-tall light appeared in the Netherworld, with the Red Lotus Karma Fire surging forth, causing a tremor throughout the entire cycle of reincarnation.

  Emperor Jiang's body also emitted a thousand feet of black light, and one of the six reincarnation wheels shot out a green light that directly entered his body. Emperor Jiang only felt a sudden surge of powerful reincarnation power in his body, and his magical powers suddenly rose linearly. In the Netherworld, everything appeared in front of him as if it were his own primordial spirit, whether it was the six reincarnation wheels, the ten temples of the underworld, or the Reincarnation Palace where Hou Tu lived. He seemed to be the master of the Netherworld and could easily borrow the power of the Netherworld.

  This was the right of the master of reincarnation, Emperor Jiang opened his eyes, and he was very surprised. At this moment, he felt that he had infinite magical powers on his body. The Heavenly Way Lock and the Earthly Way Lock appeared before his eyes one after another. If he wanted to, it was possible for him to break through these locks and forcibly take the Tao fruit inside.

  Why can't I feel the shackles of the Self-Way? Emperor Jiang was puzzled, could it be that his own strength had not yet reached the point where he could challenge the shackles of the Self-Way?

  The self-way of the self-way, where is the self-way after all? Emperor Jiang's heart was greatly stirred, but he immediately calmed down. Now that he has obtained a power higher than that of the saints, and with the entire cycle to support him, there is no need to take the heavenly way or the earthly way. Just wait for the self-way shackles to appear later, and then verify the Hunyuan Dajin Golden Immortal.
