"Indeed!"

Xuanqing had originally been in seclusion, contemplating the "Creation Jade Disk," but the news from Houtu confirmed his suspicions about that guy Hong Jun.

His incarnation, currently under the guise of Zhu Rong, along with Gonggong, Qiang Liang, and others, was listening in on the matters discussed by the four Earth Dao Saints.

Houtu’s intention to hunt the Five Elements Demon Gods and others was not only for the Earth Dao but also for Gonggong and Zhu Rong, as the Great Dao of the Water Demon and the Molten Rock Demon were highly compatible with the two Ancestor Witches. If their origin could be obtained, it might help Gonggong and Zhu Rong to prove the Dao of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!

This was Houtu’s scheme!

Therefore, when the four Saints were in discussion, Houtu invited several Ancestor Witches to participate.

Neither Jieyin Daoist, Zhunti Daoist, nor Zhen Yuanzi, although part of the Earth Dao faction, were truly Houtu’s own people!

Only the Ancestor Witches who formed the Witch Clan together could earn Houtu’s trust, which was why she went to great lengths to resurrect several Ancestor Witches.

However...

Due to the concealment of the Fate Dao and the "Dao Yi Seal," up to this point, she had not discovered that Zhu Rong’s identity had been temporarily replaced by Xuanqing!

"This is a good thing!"

Houtu was still in discussion with Jieyin, Zhunti, and Zhen Yuanzi, but Xuanqing was certain that it wouldn’t be long before Houtu would approach him for cooperation.

He was in no rush!

Jieyin and Zhunti, on the other hand, had their eyes on the origin of the Light Demon God, as among the Buddhist Sect’s direct disciples, the Pharmacist was a practitioner of the Light Great Dao.

If they could obtain the Light Demon God’s origin, the Pharmacist might have a chance to prove the Dao of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

As for Zhen Yuanzi, possessing the "Kunyu Treasure Mirror," an Innate Treasure, he didn’t show much interest in the origins of the Chaos Demon Gods.

Although Houtu, Jieyin, and Zhunti desired the origins of the Five Elements Demon God and the Shadow Demon God, they still needed some leverage to persuade several Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals to help them hunt the Chaos Demon Gods. They did not intend to swallow the origins of the five Chaos Demon Gods whole.

Luo Hou, Kunpeng, Yuan Feng, and Xuanqing were all targets Houtu aimed to win over. Apart from the Demon Gods, the Companion Spirit Treasures they held were also extremely valuable and were within Houtu’s plot range.

The first person Houtu sought out was Xuanqing. Xuanqing did not make exorbitant demands, merely stating the need for the insights of the Five Chaos Demon Gods’ Great Daos.

"Agreed!"

The insights of the Great Dao of the Chaos Demon Gods were not something the average person could obtain. However, Houtu was aware that Xuanqing possessed a mysterious Divine Skill capable of condensing a cultivator’s Great Dao insights into Chaos Spirit Fruits.

Thus, after a brief contemplation, Houtu agreed to Xuanqing’s terms.

Next, Houtu approached Kunpeng. Kunpeng, having already proven the Dao of Chaotic Daluo Golden Immortal, coupled with the Dream Great Dao and its characteristics of transforming void into reality and refining false into true, did not hold much desire for the Chaos Demon Gods’ origins. Instead, he coveted the Companion Spirit Treasures of those Chaos Demon Gods.

Houtu, hearing this, promised immediately: "If we can capture the Five Elements Demon God and others, Kunpeng Daoist may be the first to choose from their Companion Spirit Treasures!"

Kunpeng agreed readily.

After securing the agreement of Xuanqing and Kunpeng, Houtu reached out to Luo Hou and Yuan Feng. Luo Hou was very interested in the origin of the Shadow Demon God, while Yuan Feng coveted the origin of the Five Elements Demon God.

Yuan Feng had already proven the Dao of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, and among the Great Dao origins of the Demon Gods, only the chaos origin of the Molten Rock Demon God was somewhat useful to her.

But sadly, Houtu had set her sights on it!

The other Chaos Demon Gods’ origins were promised to Jieyin Daoist and Luo Hou, leaving Yuan Feng with no room to negotiate.

Within the Phoenix Clan, Kong Xuan was cultivating the Five Elements Great Dao. Unfortunately, he had fallen at Xuanqing’s hands, and his Companion "Innate Five Elements Qi" had been seized and refined. Although he had returned from the Loss of Self Tribulation, his foundation suffered serious damage!

If the Five Elements Demon God’s origin could be obtained, not only could it restore Kong Xuan’s foundation, but it might also enable him to break and rebuild on his original foundation!

To ascend to a higher level!

Among Yuan Feng’s offspring, the Thunderbird, Da Feng, and others, who were born during the Dragon Han Period, were now at the Primordial Golden Immortal Realm.

Kong Xuan, although only a Daluo Golden Immortal, achieved this level despite being entangled with the Phoenix Clan’s Karma, proving his exceptional talent, lacking only a bit of fortune.

Now, having returned from the Loss of Self Tribulation, Yuan Feng naturally wanted to focus on nurturing him.

After all...

For the Phoenix Clan to establish itself in the Primordial World, relying on her alone was not enough, and Great Immortal Yang Mei could not serve as the Phoenix Clan’s long-term pillar!

Soon, Houtu, Jieyin, Zhunti, Zhen Yuanzi, Xuanqing, Kunpeng, Luo Hou, and Yuan Feng, eight Saint-level powers, gathered together.

Xuanqing watched the scene, somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry, as the majority of these eight Saint-level powers held conflicts among themselves.

Zhen Yuanzi had karmic ties with Jieyin, Zhunti, and Kunpeng. Kunpeng as the Demon Master, and Houtu as the Ancestor Witch, also had considerable karmic ties between them.

Although Xuanqing and Yuan Feng had not yet truly crossed paths, the conflict between him and the Phoenix Clan traced back hundreds of eons.

Luo Hou, moreover, was a heavyweight figure. The Western Earth Veins were destroyed by him, making him the chief culprit for the Earth Dao’s weakened strength. Add to that the recklessness of the Demon Path, and working with him was akin to seeking a tiger’s skin—constantly needing to prepare for potential betrayal!
