Chapter 19: Destroying the Witches and Gaining Sainthood, a Stormy Era Begins
Wuchen's sermons were not as profound as Hongjun's, but they were more targeted.
The six laws of time, space, earth, fire, water, and wind correspond precisely to the six ancestral witches, including Dijiang, Zhurong, and Houtu.
The six people's understanding of the laws was rapidly increasing.
Although the other six did not gain as much as them, they also entered a state of enlightenment under the guidance of the power of the rules, and thus benefited greatly.
After an unknown amount of time, Wuchen stopped preaching.
The twelve Ancestral Witches remained immersed in enlightenment, and their levels of attainment diverged after this experience of listening to the Dao.
Dijiang, Houtu, and others had already reached the late stage of the Great Luo realm and were on the verge of breaking through.
The other six are only at the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm. They may have a chance to break through to the late-stage Great Luo realm, but reaching the peak of the Great Luo realm is absolutely impossible.
With nothing else to do, Wuchen couldn't help but scrutinize the twelve people.
Dijiang: Yellow sac, red body, six feet and four wings, chaotic and without face, its whole body is red like cinnabar fire.
Jumang: Green as bamboo, with a bird's body and a human face, surrounded by a green spiritual aura.
Zhu Rong: With the head of an animal and the body of a human, covered in red scales, with fire snakes piercing his ears, and flames enveloping his body.
……
Xuanming: Human face and bird body, with green snakes hanging from its ears, its whole body is ice blue, and it exudes a chilling aura.
Houtu: Human body with a snake tail, seven arms growing from her back, two arms in front of her chest, dignified and imposing.
Although Wuchen is no longer human, the memories of humanity belong to the enlightenment period, so it still retains human aesthetics.
In his eyes, the twelve ancestral witches were all uglier than the last.
Xuanming and Houtu are not bad if you only look at their faces, but below their necks they do not meet Wuchen's aesthetic standards.
"Buzz!"
Various laws manifested from Dijiang, Zhurong, and the other six individuals, marking their formal entry into the peak of the Great Luo realm.
Perfectly master the laws they have come to understand.
While Dijiang and the others were still consolidating their cultivation levels, Xuanming and the other six also successively entered the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
However, his remaining strength has been exhausted, and it will be difficult for him to find an opportunity to reach the peak of the Great Luo realm in the short term.
The twelve Ancestral Witches opened their eyes one after another.
Dijiang eagerly cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask, Venerable One, what realm lies beyond the Great Luo Golden Immortal, and how one breaks through to it?"
Although Wuchen's sermon was not as detailed as Hongjun's, he still mentioned the name of Daluo.
Therefore, Di Jiang and the others already knew that the realm they belonged to was called the Great Luo Golden Immortal, and they also knew the elements of this realm.
Wuchen said calmly, "Laws are the foundation of rules, and rules are the superior level of laws."
Whether it's the Primordial Golden Immortal realm during the Chaos period, the Dao Venerable realm, or even Hongjun's Quasi-Saint realm.
Although the methods of cultivation differ, they all adhere to the same principle.
Once you have a basic understanding of the rules of the higher realms, you will be above the Great Luo realm. As for what you will be called specifically, that depends entirely on your individual cultivation.
The Chaos Primordial Dao emphasizes proving the Dao through force. It uses the power of laws to forcibly peer into the origin of chaos and prove one's Dao as a Primordial Golden Immortal, hence the name Primordial Golden Immortal.
Hongjun severed the three corpses of good, evil, and obsession in order to be closer to the Dao of Heaven. In the end, his primordial spirit was entrusted to the Dao of Heaven, and he achieved the status of a sage, hence the name Quasi-Sage.
"My Dao Supreme Realm is based on the Laws, connecting Heaven and Earth, and nurturing its own rules. The rules are me, and I am the rules; thus, I am the Supreme Lord of the Dao."
Upon hearing this, the Twelve Ancestral Witches suddenly understood.
Whether it is the Primordial Dao, the Dao of Severing the Three Corpses, or the Dao of Nourishing the Dao without Dust, each has its own profound mysteries.
They only had two paths before them.
Either choose one path to cultivate, or, like Wuchen and Hongjun, create your own path and forge your own way.
The twelve Ancestral Witches stood up and bowed in unison to Wuchen.
"Thank you for your guidance, Venerable One!"
Wuchen waved his sleeve, lifted them up, and said calmly, "A great trend is about to begin; you all need to go back and make preparations as soon as possible."
"We take our leave!"
Dijiang and the others knew that what the other party said was true, so they did not stay long. After bowing again, they left Fangzhang Island together and returned to the depths of the Blood Sea.
Shortly after Wuchen finished his sermon, Hongjun of Zixiao Palace also concluded his sermon.
After a series of changes, Hongjun no longer appointed the heads of male and female immortals. He looked at a certain spot among the three thousand mortals, where a cold light was flashing.
"The Wu tribe does not understand the will of Heaven and is an alien species in the primordial world."
The one who destroys the witch clan will have the opportunity to become a saint, a Heavenly Emperor, and rule over all spirits in the primordial world.
Three cycles later, the Purple Cloud Palace reopened.
Hongjun's figure disappeared from the high platform, but the three thousand mortals below were unable to recover from their shock for a long time.
Whoever destroys the witch clan will have the opportunity to become a saint?
Although Hongjun suffered a setback at Wuchen's hands, it did not affect the saint's standing in the hearts of the three thousand mortals.
That Wuchen is merely relying on the benefits of the supreme treasure; how can he be compared to a sage?
Now that the opportunity to become a saint is right in front of them, how could they not be tempted?
Di Jun stood up and his gaze swept over everyone.
"Gentlemen, we wish to unite all the spirits of the primordial world to establish the Demon Court and jointly fight against the Witch Clan. Would you be willing to join our Demon Court?"
Upon hearing this, Taiyi, Bai Ze, and the others stood up and stood behind Dijun.
This is to show our stance, demonstrate our strength, and intimidate all parties, so that they know that joining the Demon Court is the right choice.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"A bunch of furry, horned creatures born from wet eggs, are they worthy of ruling over all the creatures of the primordial world?"
In my opinion...
"We, the Three Pure Ones, are the true descendants of Pangu, and should rightfully be the supreme rulers of all spirits."
Before Dijun, Taiyi, and the others could react, Laozi and Tongtian stood up first, indicating that the Three Pure Ones would not participate in this matter.
Yuanshi looked at the two of them with disbelief.
"Eldest brother, third brother..."
Lao Tzu raised his hand to interrupt, saying, "It's not as simple as you imagine. If you want to participate, then go by yourself."
Having said that, Laozi took the lead and left Zixiao Palace.
"Why!"
Tongtian couldn't help but sigh, and finally silently followed Laozi away.
"Eldest brother, third brother!"
Ignoring his anger, Yuanshi shouted and hurriedly chased after them. He dared not stay there alone to be ganged up on.
Nuwa also got up and left.
Then Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun, Dongwanggong and other innate great powers also left one after another.
Some, like Laozi and Tongtian, had no interest in participating in this matter, while others planned to start their own faction and fight against the Wu tribe on their own.
There is only one chance to become a saint.
If we join the Demon Court and ultimately achieve victory, whose fortune will it be?
Are you expecting Di Jun and the others to give up their positions?
It's already a miracle that they can distribute the resources well internally; expecting them to give such an opportunity to outsiders is simply wishful thinking.
Of the three thousand mortals, not a single one ultimately joined the Demon Court.
Di Jun's face was ashen, his fists clenched, and the power of the laws around him surged violently, causing gusts of wind to rise within the Zixiao Palace.
Bai Ze smiled and said, "Why are you angry, fellow Daoist? Although the Witch Clan is strong, our Demon Court is not weak either. The Demon Court is already capable of fighting against the Witch Clan."
Taiyi coldly replied, "There is only one chance to become a saint. Before destroying the Wu Clan, we must first unify the prehistoric world. Otherwise, who will claim the final opportunity?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze was speechless.
How can such words be said in public?
He glanced at the others discreetly and noticed that they all looked strange, which made Bai Ze shake his head helplessly.
