Chapter 114 The Ancestral Witches Break Through Their Defenses
In just over a thousand years, Dijiang risked his life, using the laws of space to bring people and things back to Buzhou Mountain from all the other ancestral witches scattered throughout the prehistoric world.
"Elder brother, what is the matter that you are in such a hurry to bring us back to Buzhou Mountain?" Ancestral witch Qiangliang asked Dijiang, who was now making no attempt to hide his anxiety.
"If it's for the sake of the Heavenly Court, elder brother, there's no need to worry. We'll deal with whatever comes our way," Xuanming said, his body radiating a chilling aura.
The newly established Heavenly Court by the demon race was certainly not good news for the witch race, except for Di Jun, Tai Yi, Fu Xi,
Besides Nuwa, the Three Pure Ones also joined in.
In the future, there are four people in the Heavenly Court who are qualified to become saints. The core of the Heavenly Court now is the demon race. The conflict between the witches and demons is irreconcilable. There is also a dispute between the witch race and the Three Pure Ones. Undoubtedly, the purpose of these people gathering together is already obvious and does not need much analysis.
Moreover, the Dao Ancestor set a truce deadline, which prevented the Wu Clan from striking first and forced them to watch helplessly as the Heavenly Court became a major threat.
However, the Ancestral Witches were not too worried. Firstly, it would take many eons for all the great beings to become saints, and during that time, their witch clan would have enough time to integrate the entire prehistoric land.
Secondly, they already possess immeasurable merit from the creation of the world, which will protect the Wu Clan. In addition, they have now combined the Dao of Earth Immortals with the primordial earth veins, which will allow them to gain even more merit. It will not be so easy for them to scheme against the Wu Clan.
But seeing Dijiang's flustered appearance, the ancestral witches were all very puzzled, since Dijiang had never shown such an expression before.
"Brother, has something happened?" Zhu Jiuyin asked, looking at Di Jiang in front of him.
"Brothers, I'm so sorry." Dijiang looked at the twelve Ancestral Witches in front of him, feeling weak all over. He couldn't bring himself to say some of the words because of his overwhelming shame.
For this reason, along the way, Dijiang only led the group of ancestral witches back to the foot of Buzhou Mountain, without appealing to his brothers.
"What happened?" Houtu asked upon seeing this.
"The temple—it's lost." Di Jiang's words fell silent.
In the deathly silence, no one spoke.
"Which temple?" Shebishi asked incredulously.
"Father God's Temple." Dijiang couldn't bring himself to say the four words "Pangu Temple".
"Impossible." Zhu Rong's body was engulfed in flames and malevolent energy. He immediately tried to open the gate of the Pangu Temple and lure himself inside, but unsurprisingly, he failed.
At this moment, a small part of Pangu's will in the Pangu Temple was immersed in the joy of revival and the appreciation of the "promising child" who had returned from who-knows-where, and had no time to pay attention to the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Inside the Pangu Temple, Styx could feel that the will of Pangu was very close to him.
This is not only because his physical body was formed from the essence of Pangu's blood combined with the power of chaos, but also because he possesses the fortune of Pangu and immeasurable merit.
"How could this be!?" Gonggong also tried once, but failed as well. At this moment, he panicked.
Or perhaps, all twelve Ancestral Witches panicked.
We can't lose the Pangu Temple!
"Big brother, what's going on?! How could this happen?" All the Ancestral Witches looked at Dijiang. What had their eldest brother done? They couldn't even get into the Pangu Temple now.
"It was Styx. I don't know what methods he used, but he occupied the Pangu Temple and drove me out."
Moreover—" Dijiang hesitated before speaking further.
The guilt over losing the Pangu Temple prevented Dijiang from saying what he was about to say.
"What? The River Styx?"
"It's him?"
Xuanming and Houtu were both startled upon hearing this.
The Wu Clan lacks a primordial spirit, so they are much slower to obtain information compared to other powerful beings in the prehistoric world. For example, regarding Styx's new body that can control chaos, it can be said that almost no powerful being would think that Styx's new body has anything to do with the Blood God Child's supernatural power.
Even those who don't know the origin of this new divine body should have some guesses about it, just by looking at the Pangu fortune that Styx is gradually absorbing from the Three Pure Ones and the two Ancestral Witches.
However, the two ancestral witches, who were invincible in the prehistoric world by relying solely on physical strength and brute force, still had an impression of the Styx River from when the path of earth immortals was first established.
"Impossible, how could he possibly do all that?"
Even the Three Pure Ones couldn't do that, unless they too were formed from the essence and blood of the Father God—" Zhu Jiuyin looked at Dijiang and said with an incredulous expression.
What Dijiang said was indeed too shocking and unbelievable to them, but the Pangu Temple, which they could no longer enter, undoubtedly pointed them to the truth.
"But, the essence of the Father God has transformed into only twelve of us brothers. Moreover, the Styx River has a primordial spirit, which is not from our Wu clan," Jumang said, looking at his brothers.
Houtu fell silent. At that moment, she thought of a terrible possibility.
But at this moment, the hot-tempered Zhu Rong stepped forward.
"Form the formation, elder brother, the temple must not be lost!" Zhu Rong said to Di Jiang.
The ancestral witches all knew what he meant by forming an array: the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array!
"Impossible, don't even think about it!" Gonggong immediately poured cold water on Zhurong, scolding him, "The temple and Buzhou Mountain are connected, and even to many ley lines and spiritual veins in the primordial world. Even if you could forcibly break through the temple, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable."
Moreover, are you going to offend the Father God?! How dare you!
"I—I was just too impatient, don't pin these accusations on me!" This time, Zhu Rong was rendered speechless by Gong Gong's rebuke. After recovering from his anger, he quickly realized what a stupid thing he had done.
This is truly a reversal of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
"What should we do then?"
"What can you do?" Zhu Rong looked at Gong Gong and then turned to ask.
Gonggong was taken aback by Zhurong's question. If the Styx wanted to take over the Pangu Temple and stayed inside without coming out, he really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
"Brothers, there's one more thing—" Dijiang looked at the group of brothers and sisters in front of him, feeling even more guilty. But given the current critical situation, he still told his brothers and sisters about how Styx had poured his own blood essence into the blood pool.
"It felt like we were nurturing a great witch with a pool of blood. Could it be that the River Styx is truly ours—" Dijiang pondered for a thousand years, his thoughts becoming increasingly chaotic.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" The Ancestral Witches would never believe such a thing: that there exists a being who possesses both a primordial spirit and the bloodline of the Father God!
This does not mean that the twelve ancestral witches have gained a brother; it means that they have gone from being Pangu's "legitimate sons" to "illegitimate sons"!
"No, brothers, it's entirely possible."
