Chapter 1155: 814 Ancestral Witch of the Mysterious Darkness

Jiang Chen had arrived at Reincarnation Hall, where Mother Earth had been waiting for quite some time already. The scenery inside the hall hadn’t changed much since his last visit.

Saintess Wudang was still meditating on the Tao, and her two maids — one from Witch Clan and the other from the lineage of Innate Ghost Gods — still stood by Mother Earth’s sides.

The only change was that the Red Golden Lotus Platform under Mother Earth’s seat had been replaced by a blue cushion.

This too was a supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure, hardly inferior to the Red Golden Lotus Platform. Such was the foundation of a Saint; even after giving the Red Golden Lotus Platform to Jiang Chen, she could easily produce another top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure.

"I pay my respects to Your Highness."

After entering Reincarnation Hall, Jiang Chen immediately bowed to Mother Earth sitting in the main seat. At the same time, his attention was drawn to a shabby-looking small banner in Mother Earth’s hands.

Right upon entering, Jiang Chen noticed the banner in Mother Earth’s hands; judging by its tattered appearance and the aura of Duotian Shenfan’s deadly and chaotic energies flowing on it, he could roughly guess the identity of this treasure — it was none other than the legendary Witch Clan treasure, Duotian Shenfan.

In the Ancient Era, the entire Witch Clan summoned their collective power to worship Pangu Great God at Mount Buzhou, thereby invoking the residual will of Pangu Great God left on Mount Buzhou and receiving His blessing, which manifested the rules embedded in the bloodlines of the Twelve Ancestral Witches into an Innate Treasure.

This Innate Treasure was the Duotian Shenfan. From the moment of its creation, the Witch Clan revered it as their supreme tribal treasure. Subsequently, sensing the fate of the Witch Clan, the Duotian Shenfan underwent transformations, splitting into twelve, and transforming into twelve flags of the Ancestral Witches, each falling into the hands of one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

These twelve flags of the Ancestral Witches bore paintings of the Twelve Ancestral Witches on one side and symbols representing their twelve attributes — Time, Space, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, and Poison — on the other.

These twelve flags, all supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures, together constituted the Innate Treasure. This arrangement also aimed to unify the efforts of the Witch Clan. If the Twelve Ancestral Witches did not cooperate, the Innate Treasure Duotian Shenfan could not appear in the world.

When the Twelve Ancestral Witches were united, they were invincible under Heaven and Earth, such was the profound intention of Pangu Great God. Unfortunately, contrary to their desires, as Mother Earth transformed into the embodiment of Reincarnation, causing a deficiency in the Twelve Ancestral Witches, they no longer held the name of invincibility.

"Jiang Chen, as you wished, I am lending you the Duotian Shenfan temporarily. I hope you won’t forget your promise."

Upon seeing Jiang Chen enter, Mother Earth did not waste words and directly threw the Duotian Shenfan banner to him.

Jiang Chen caught the Duotian Shenfan, feeling its smooth warmth, while a mysterious aura emanated from it, flowing through his arm into his body.

Instantly, Jiang Chen felt as though he had been baptized, his magical powers becoming three times purer.

"Indeed, the Duotian Shenfan, or should I say, the treasures of Pangu, truly resonate with me."

With a thought, Jiang Chen understood what was happening — the Duotian Shenfan must have sensed the aura of Pangu within him and merged with it, thus giving him a baptism.

The Duotian Shenfan was a top-level Innate Treasure; even though it was damaged, it was still an Innate Treasure, its power belonging to the Primordial Chaos Stage. The benefits Jiang Chen received from its initiative to merge with him were immense.

The mysterious power of Duotian continuously surged from the banner into Jiang Chen, merging with his own powers and gradually transforming his body.

Unfortunately, the location wasn’t right; otherwise, Jiang Chen would have concentrated and carefully sensed the changes in his body.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Jiang Chen will never forget his promise." First securing the Duotian Shenfan, Jiang Chen then deeply bowed to Mother Earth.

It was the moment he stowed away the Duotian Shenfan that Jiang Chen felt an emptiness in his heart, as the mysterious power ceased to generate.

"Alright, you have been in the Netherworld long enough; it’s time for you to leave and attend to your own affairs."

Waving her hand, Mother Earth sent Jiang Chen away.

Having provided Jiang Chen with benefits, Mother Earth naturally hoped he would quickly take action and hasten to resurrect the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

"Yes, Jiang Chen takes his leave."

Thinking of the changes brought by the Duotian Shenfan, Jiang Chen was likewise eager not to linger. Mother Earth was sending him off, which was to his liking. Without hesitation, he turned and left Reincarnation Hall.

"Your Highness, the Duotian Shenfan is a treasure of our clan, severely damaged it may be, far from its original state, but its power still surpasses that of the top Innate Spiritual Treasures. Why did you so readily lend it to Jiang Chen?"

"Is there something special about Jiang Chen?"

Shortly after Jiang Chen left, the maid from the Witch Clan to the left of Mother Earth could no longer hold back and asked. Clearly a confidant serving close to Mother Earth and holding a high status within the Witch Clan, she felt entitled to speak on such crucial matters concerning the future of their clan.

She did not believe that Jiang Chen could resurrect the Twelve Ancestral Witches, a task even Mother Earth could not accomplish. How could Jiang Chen, a mere Human King, possibly manage it?

As for the maid of ghostly origins on the right, she stood silently to the side, playing deaf and mute.

Being an outsider, it was already a significant mark of trust that she could listen in on such internal affairs of the Witch Clan. Speaking out of turn would seem rather inappropriate.

"How do you view Jiang Chen?"
