Chapter 190: Chapter 160: The Witch Demon Watches the Battle, The Measure Catastrophe Begins!
"Hmm?"
The mighty beings across Primordial lands, upon hearing the oath of the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans, looked toward the region where the three clans resided with confusion.
"Why would they, out of the blue, take an oath?"
"Using the oath to cleanse the karma from their bodies, to face the imminent Catastrophic Slaughter.
Not bad thinking!"
"The three clans retreat from the world, completely withdrawing from the struggle for supremacy in Primordial times.
From now on, the Primordial lands will belong to the Witch and Demon Clans!"
"Indeed! From now on, when we encounter the Witch and Demon Clans, we’d better walk around them, to avoid being killed innocently!"
"Let’s get through this Catastrophic Slaughter first!"
"..."
The real world.
People around the globe were once again shocked by the actions of the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans and began discussing fervently.
"Weird, Hong Jun led three companions to confront Luo Hou, the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans have already withdrawn from the historical stage, then why take an oath?
Are they afraid of being implicated?"
"The maneuvers of the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans really do baffle me!
Even if descend from supremacy, they shouldn’t be like this as venerable Primordial clans!"
"It’s their choice, I guess!
What I care about now is the confrontation between Hong Jun and others, who will be the ultimate victor?"
"Do we even need to ask? It’s definitely Luo Hou!
He has been the foremost since the last Aeonic Calamity, equipped with the Slaughtering Supreme Treasure God Slaying Spear and Four Exterminating Immortals Swords with Array Maps, and a series of Divine Weapons. The four from Primordial are all Innate Gods and Demons, but overall, they are a bit weaker than Luo Hou.
Therefore, the ultimate victory will surely be Luo Hou’s!"
"You’re thinking too much!
Previously, Beast Emperor Shen Ni was also the foremost, but eventually, he was besieged and killed.
So, being powerful does not mean you can have the last laugh, I think Hong Jun and others will achieve the final victory!"
"Let’s stop debating with you lot, just wait for the results!"
"..."
Chaotic World·Special Space.
Wang Yi nodded in approval upon seeing the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans’ tactics:
"An enlightened choice, knowing that they are no longer the protagonists of Primordial times, they resolutely exit and withdraw from the eyes of the Primordial Beings.
In the future, a comeback may not be impossible!"
Subsequently, his gaze turned westward, waiting for the direction the combat would take.
...
Primordial Western lands!
In a desolate mountain range, two slightly disheveled figures hid in a cave, talking anxiously!
"Big brother, a great battle is about to happen here, why did we come here?"
"Fortune favors the brave! The more dangerous a place is, the more benefits it can reap!"
"While that’s true, our cultivation is after all inferior compared to theirs, staying here forcefully, it’s easy for us to die and our path to vanish!"
"Don’t worry! I’ve thought it through!
When Luo Hou battles with Hong Jun and other Gods and Demons, we will quietly sneak into Luo Hou’s lair, empty out the good things inside.
By then, we can use these things to establish our own forces!"
"Well... okay then!"
These two shabby figures in conversation were none other than Guiding and Zhunti, who had returned from the Primordial East.
Having seen the Witch and Demon Clans empty out the ten fiends of Primordial and the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin Three Clans’ treasuries, they too decided to seek fortune through danger and empty Luo Hou’s lair.
While highly risky and perilous to their lives, the potential gains were immense and worth their attempt.
...
Primordial’s Northern part!
Demon Race territory, Sun God Palace.
The Four Emperors, Ten Great Demon Masters, Ten Great Demon Saints, and other high-ranking members of the Demon Race gathered together to discuss the cause of the Catastrophic Slaughter.
"Big brother, with the Catastrophic Slaughter upon us, should our Demon Race take the opportunity to invade the Western lands and seize that territory?"
As Dijun’s brother and the Eastern Emperor of the Demon Race, it was most appropriate for Taiyi to bring up the topic.
Dijun did not respond to Taiyi but instead turned his gaze to the silent Fu Xi, asking:
"Emperor Xi, what do you think of this matter?"
Fu Xi had long anticipated that Dijun would ask him; this wasn’t the first time such matters had arisen, and he already had a prepared response.
He gave Dijun a look, surveyed the expressions of the others, and finally returned his gaze to Dijun, saying:
"As for this matter, I think it’s better not to get involved. Whether it’s Hong Jun or Luo Hou, they are both great beings born at the dawn of heaven and earth, the weakest of them has reached the Peak of Quasi-Saint, and the highest have reached the Peak of the Supreme.
Our Demon Race, although strong, is still not quite on par with these top powerhouses!
If we rashly join their war, it could potentially bring about a catastrophe for the Demon Race, especially since the Witch Clan is still eyeing us ferociously, we cannot ignore them.
Therefore, I think it’s better not to get involved in this matter, to avoid giving the Witch Clan an opportunity to exploit."
After finishing, Fu Xi added:
"Of course, this is just my personal opinion, the specific approach needs to be discussed by everyone."
Hearing this, Dijun did not ask Fu Xi any further questions but turned his head to inquire the views of the Ten Great Demon Masters and Ten Great Demon Saints.
The conclusion reached was the same as Fu Xi’s, all advising against involvement to avoid bringing disaster to the Demon Race.
"Good! Since everyone thinks we should not participate, then we won’t!"
Dijun too was not keen on involvement. The reason he had called the Demon Race high-ranking members was simply to go through the motions and incidentally see if the Ten Great Demon Masters were truly loyal to the cause.
Now the results seemed satisfactory to him.
...
At the foot of Buzhou Mountain.
Witch Clan tribes.
Twelve Ancestor Witches gathered together, exchanging their views.
"Big brother, with the Catastrophic Slaughter upon us, why don’t we take the opportunity to annihilate the Demon Race, to dominate the Primordial lands?"
Fire God Zhu Rong, seeing the Ancestor Witches settled down, was eager to share his thoughts, wanting to seize this opportunity to exterminate the Demon Race.
"Can you stop coming up with bad ideas?"
Upon hearing this voice, Water God Gonggong immediately criticized: "The Demon Race, with the addition of the ten fiends of Primordial, now surpasses us, the Witch Clan, in strength. Attacking them now is tantamount to courting death for our clan, isn’t it?"
He was naturally opposing Zhu Rong, as long as something was proposed by Zhu Rong, he would be the first to stand up and object.
"You are everywhere!"
"What’s wrong? You have a problem with that?"
"Don’t even start, you mindless fool!"
"Looking for a fight, are you?"
"Scared of you? Please!"
Emperor Jiang watched as Zhu Rong and Gonggong bickered nonstop, his eyebrows knitted together in a frown as he bellowed angrily:
"Shut your mouths, all of you! One more word and you’ll be asking Father God for forgiveness!"
As his voice fell.
Zhu Rong and Gonggong immediately clammed up, sitting obediently to one side, no longer arguing.
"Hmph!"
Emperor Jiang let out a cold huff to express his displeasure.
Then he turned to Zhu Jiuyin and asked, "Second Brother, do you think we should get involved in this?"
Zhu Jiuyin, one of the twelve Ancestor Witches proficient in the Time Law and somewhat similar to the Demon Race’s Fu Xi, often played the role of the strategist.
Now that Emperor Jiang was consulting him, he was naturally curious about Zhu Jiuyin’s opinion.
"Not getting involved!"
Zhu Jiuyin explained his reasoning.
Although he couldn’t clearly see who would win the battle between Hong Jun and Luo Hou, considering their arch-enemies the Demon Race, he decisively rejected getting involved in the ordeal to avoid giving the Demon Race an opportunity!
After hearing the explanation, Emperor Jiang took a deep breath and said:
"What do you all think?"
Though the question was directed at the other Ancestor Witches, it was more of a formality.
Within the Witch Clan, Emperor Jiang had absolute authority.
His words went unchallenged by any Ancestor Witch.
"Not getting involved!"
They all gave the same answer.
"Good!"
Emperor Jiang nodded.
Ultimately, the Witch Clan would not participate in this conflict sparked by the Dao and Demons.
...
In the Western Primordial Lands.
Hong Jun and his party had reached the Demon Cave.
Seeing Luo Hou waiting in the Void, Hong Jun stepped forward and thundered:
"Luo Hou, what a peace of mind you have.
As an Innate God and Demon, instead of nurturing Primordial Beings, you engage solely in slaughter, bringing calamity to all living beings, everyone living in fear.
With the emergence of the Heavenly Dao, you now face the danger of downfall!"
Hong Jun straightaway labeled Luo Hou with a serious accusation.
Indeed, Luo Hou had a hand in stirring up conflict among the Three Clans.
Secretly orchestrating the battle between the Ten Great Demon Masters and the Three Clans was his doing as well!
The Three Clans weren’t tolerated by the Heavenly Dao; Luo Hou’s manipulation aligned with it, but Hong Jun used it as an excuse.
"Ha ha, Hong Jun, who would have thought that after all these years, you would still be so hypocritical.
The actions I take are in accordance with the Heavenly Dao.
How did they become sinister schemes that don’t benefit Primordial Beings in your narrative?
Is it that anything contrary to your interests becomes a conspiracy?
Furthermore...
The way of heaven takes from what has in excess to replenish what lacks.
This has always been my way of doing things.
I fear not your attempt to tarnish my name with dirty words!"
Luo Hou retorted without showing any weakness.
From ancient times, there’s always been a pre-fight trash talk, each trying to paint themselves as the justified party.
Did Luo Hou not want to engage in a verbal battle with Hong Jun because it was pointless?
He shifted his gaze and looked at the three helpers Hong Jun had brought along, and said:
"Hong Jun, this matter concerns us, why drag others into risking their lives needlessly?
All three are reincarnations of Chaos Demon Gods, why wade into these muddy waters?"
Seeing Luo Hou trying to sow discord, Hong Jun huffed: "Although our friends are reincarnations of Chaos Demon Gods, they are willing to aid in the development of Primordial Beings.
Now that they have already lost their Demon God Bodies, once I take control of the Heavenly Dao, what harm is there in their staying in the Primordial Lands?"
Hong Jun, fearing Luo Hou’s attempts at driving a wedge might succeed, quickly stabilized his forces.
Then, without any further ado, he shouted loudly:
"Come then! Let me see how much you’ve progressed in these thousands of Kalpas!"
Hong Jun’s strategy was simple: prioritize the fight.
Once they were engaged in combat, there would be no escaping from the fray.
"Kill!"
Luo Hou had been waiting just for that word. God Slaying Spear grew in the wind, transforming into a hundred zhang, lunging at Hong Jun.
The God Slaying Spear, a Slaughter Supreme Treasure, capable of harming the Primordial Spirit and destroying the body, was immensely powerful.
Hong Jun, too, was a survivor of a battle against Shen Ni, and naturally understood the terror of God Slaying Spear.
He dared not underestimate it.
Hong Jun summoned the twelve-petaled Merit Golden Lotus to shield his body, hung the Creation Jade Disc above his head, invulnerable to all laws; the Slaughter Qi ineffective, he brought forth the Pangu Banner and unleashed a Chaotic Sword Qi, crashing against the God Slaying Spear.
One was a Heaven Creation Supreme Treasure, the other a Slaughter Supreme Treasure, both attacks immensely mighty!
However, in this collision, the one who ended up at a disadvantage was still Hong Jun. His cultivation was inherently a notch below Luo Hou’s, and the Pangu Banner’s attack was also slightly less than God Slaying Spear’s attack. In a comparative sense, he was on the losing side in this engagement.
Nevertheless, Hong Jun wasn’t keen on fighting Luo Hou alone and immediately shouted:
"Fellow Daoists, if not now, then when?"
"Kill!"
Xuanhuang Ancestor, hearing this, took the lead in swinging the Xuanhuang Sword.
Yin Yang Ancestor followed closely behind, with the Tai Chi Diagram underfoot, transforming into a Golden Bridge; the Yin Yang Sword strikingly unleashed, attacking forth;
Star Ancestor was the wealthiest of the three: the Star Tripod protecting his entire body, the Star Array Map beneath him, the Star Sword emitting sword Qi after sword Qi, ripping through space, heading straight for Luo Hou.
