Chapter 517 Fate's Decree! Is it the Witch Clan's backup plan?
The location of the underworld.
Within that secluded, naturally blessed land, Niu Ben was still refining that drop of Pangu's essence blood.
He was well aware of the situation of the human race.
"Xuanyuan's attainment of the Dao and becoming the Human Emperor was ordained by Heaven."
"Chi You?"
In the end, he still couldn't escape the fate of being suppressed and killed.
After a moment's thought, Niu Ben quickly composed himself and didn't pay much attention to it.
During the great war between the Lich and the Demon races, when the Lich and Demon races were locked in a fierce battle, he appeared on the battlefield and called a halt to the war between the two races.
During this time, the Demon Emperor Di Jun, relying on his refinement of the Saint's Crystal and advancement to the Saint level, refused to submit to Niu Ben and chose to take action on the spot.
In the end, however, he was killed by Niu Ben with a single punch. With the blessing of the power of the Heavenly Dao, Di Jun was able to be resurrected, but his cultivation level dropped to the level of a sub-saint.
The terrifying power displayed by Niu Ben immediately deterred the Wu and Yao races from making any further moves, and they obediently entered the Wu and Yao realms that Niu Ben had prepared for the two races.
In addition, Niu Ben also knew about it.
In this primordial land, there are still many creatures of the Wu and Yao races who have not yet entered the Wu and Yao realms.
However, he did not take action to eliminate them.
Others may not know, but Niu Ben knows very well.
The appearance of Chi You was predetermined.
The Battle for Supremacy was ordained by Heaven, laying the foundation for Xuanyuan's ascension to the throne of the Human Emperor.
Knowing this, Niu Ben did not take any action when the witch rebellion led by Chi You occurred among the human race.
……
On the western Kunlun Mountains, by the Jade Pool.
The Queen Mother of the West watched from afar, a hint of worry in her expression.
"The witch clan's army is quite formidable!"
"I wonder if the human race's Xuanyuan can emerge victorious in this battle?"
The Queen Mother of the West muttered to herself, hoping that Xuanyuan could successfully defeat Chiyou's witch army.
After all, she had dispatched her disciple, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, with the Imperial Concubine Heart Sutra to assist Xuanyuan in the human race.
If Xuanyuan could successfully defeat Chiyou, it would be of great benefit to both the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and the Queen Mother of the West.
When the time comes, Xuanyuan will become the Human Emperor, and they will also be able to share in the merits of the Heavenly Dao.
……
Meanwhile, within the demon realm...
Di Jun also sensed the situation outside.
"Oh?"
"The army of the Witch Clan?"
"Has the primordial chaos returned?"
Upon discovering that the Wu tribe army and the human army were clashing in the wilderness of Zhuolu, Di Jun was greatly alarmed.
Donghuang Taiyi, who was standing nearby, was surprised when he heard what Dijun said.
"Brother."
"What did you say?"
"The Witch Clan... are they even faster than us?"
Although they were forced by Niu Ben's power to lead a large number of demons into the demon realm, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were forced to do so.
But in the hearts of Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, their ambitions never died out.
Hearing that Di Jun's Wu Clan had returned to the prehistoric world, Donghuang Taiyi was naturally surprised.
Surprised, Di Jun calmed himself, glanced at himself slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"It shouldn't be the witch clan from the witch realm, but rather a large army formed by witch beings scattered across the primordial land."
After Di Jun explained it this way, Donghuang Taiyi nodded in understanding, then said with a look of disdain:
"These barbarians of the Witch Clan are truly overestimating themselves!"
"With such a small, scattered force, they dare to stir up trouble in the outside world?"
"Isn't this just asking for trouble?"
At this point, Donghuang Taiyi paused slightly, then turned his gaze to Dijun before continuing:
"Brother."
"We're outside..."
Before Donghuang Taiyi could finish speaking, Dijun suddenly gave him a wink, interrupting him:
"Second brother."
"We are now in the demon realm, under the control of Niu Ben."
"Some things are better left unsaid."
Upon being reminded by Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi immediately understood and nodded repeatedly, saying:
"Yes, elder brother."
While verbally agreeing, Donghuang Taiyi inwardly began to have doubts.
"Niu Ben!"
"You just wait!"
"The day I attain sainthood will be the day my demon race breaks through the demon realm and returns to the primordial world!"
"When that time comes, we brothers will repay you a thousandfold for the humiliation you inflicted upon our demon race!"
After forcibly seizing the merits that the demon master Kunpeng had gained from creating demonic scripts, Dijun gave those merits to Donghuang Taiyi.
This also enabled Donghuangtai to smoothly advance from the Quasi-Saint level to the Sub-Saint level.
Not long ago, the sage Nuwa came to the demon realm, wanting to borrow Dijun's companion treasure, the Hetu Luoshu.
Di Jun set a condition: he needed a share of the merits from Emperor Fuxi's attainment of the Dao.
Nuwa agreed, and Dijun kept his promise, lending Nuwa the Hetu and Luoshu.
Subsequently, after comprehending the Hetu and Luoshu, Fuxi successfully entered the Dao and eventually became one of the Three Sovereigns, the Heavenly Sovereign.
For this, Di Jun also received the reward of Heavenly Merit.
After obtaining the merit, Di Jun did not use it himself, but instead transferred the power of the merit to Donghuang Taiyi.
After all, Di Jun also hoped that Donghuang Taiyi would one day attain sainthood in the demon realm.
In that case, his demon race would have two saints, and with their respective innate treasures, they might not be without a fighting chance against Niu Ben.
……
Meanwhile, in the realm of witches...
The twelve ancestral witches, including Dijiang, gathered together, their faces all solemn.
"Chi You!"
"What happened?"
Why did the conflict with the human race break out at this time?
Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, frowned and looked directly at Chiyou, the Ancestral Witch!
The Chi You statue in the outside world was formed from a drop of essence blood left behind by the ancestral witch Chi You.
This can be considered one of the backup plans left by the Wu Clan on the prehistoric land.
According to the original plan of Dijiang and other ancestral witches, the drop of essence blood left behind by Chiyou was to be secretly gathered by the witch clan after it was born, in preparation for what was to come.
But who would have thought that such a huge change would occur?
For some unknown reason, Chi You from outside the world has now taken the initiative to provoke a great war with the human race.
"this?"
Upon hearing Dijiang Zuwu's question, Chiyou was stunned. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Although that drop of essence blood was left behind by him, Chi You, the original owner, was completely unaware of what exactly happened.
"Big brother!"
"Perhaps even a drop of Chi You's ancestral blood essence could wipe out the human race!"
At this moment, the Ancestral Witch Jumang spoke.
"Oh……"
Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Witch Dijiang gave a cold laugh and said:
"They wiped out humanity?"
"Do you know that the ancient land outside has now entered the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race?"
"The human race has long since overthrown our witch race and become the masters of this primordial land!"
"The Chi You outside is merely a drop of essence blood from the ancestral witch Chi You, only at the level of a Great Witch. Do you really think they can destroy the human race?"
"Did you know that the first human emperor, Huang Tian, and the ancestor of literature, Cangjie, were both... disciples of Daoist Niu Ben!"
