Chapter 129: The Welfare of All Living Beings

All the arrangements Zhou Yi made are not meaningless; they provide room for adjustment in certain matters.

Differences in the minutiae can sometimes lead to entirely different outcomes.

"I am deeply grateful to the fellow Daoist for walking with me; through these experiences, I seem to have grasped the true essence of human emotions.

What a marvelous race; under your guidance in the future, they will surely become extraordinary beings," Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman sighed.

"It is my honor to share this journey with you; it will be an experience I will never forget in this lifetime," Zhou Yi replied.

"Since there are no regrets, it is time to fulfill my mission," Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman said.

As they approached the You Ming Blood Sea, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman once again displayed her majestic side, restoring herself as the revered Ancestor Shaman to all.

Just as Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman spoke, powerful forces surged from afar, rapidly closing in and soon gathered before them.

The remaining eleven Ancestor Witches of the Wu Clan all arrived, along with countless Great Witches and the Earth Immortal founding ancestor Zhenyuanzi as promised.

Fourteen powerful beings close to Saint gathered together, creating a breathtaking scene.

The Wu Clan not only assembled these top combat forces but also brought numerous Great Witches.

In an instant, this realm was shrouded by a powerful aura, drawing the attention of countless strongmen in the Vast Wilderness World, all eyes focusing on the You Ming Blood Sea.

Many strongmen speculated about the Wu Clan's intent—were they preparing to wage war against the Demon Race again, or does the You Ming Blood Sea conceal a priceless treasure?

The Demon Race reacted instantly; Taiyi Shen and the Demon Emperor Qun personally took command, the ten major Demon Gods gathered, closely monitoring every move of the Wu Clan.

Within the You Ming Blood Sea, a strongman observed the outside commotion, his heart filled with unease.

As a strongman born from the You Ming Blood Sea, this place has always been the foundation of the Lord of the Nether River.

"The Blood Sea never dries, the Nether River never dies," this saying is widely known throughout the Vast Wilderness World.

Moreover, the Lord of the Nether River's clan resides in the You Ming Blood Sea; as long as there are wronged souls, they can strengthen their power.

But now, a multitude of Wu Clan masters have appeared around the You Ming Blood Sea—what exactly do they intend? Are they targeting the Lord of the Nether River?

Although the Lord of the Nether River is notoriously infamous, he knows the balance of urgency and has never provoked the Wu Clan.

Yet faced with the Twelve Ancestral Witches and countless Great Witches, the Lord of the Nether River still feels fear; such a lineup is too intimidating.

Even with the saying "The Blood Sea never dries, the Nether River never dies," if the Twelve Ancestral Witches unite, whether the You Ming Blood Sea can endure remains uncertain.

The Lord of the Nether River, cautiously, recalled all Asura Race members, fearing that a reckless Asura might inadvertently anger the Wu Clan.

"Hou Tu sister, have you thought it through? If you don't wish it, we won't force you! Whatever happens, the brothers will have your back."

Standing at the head of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Di Hong Zu Wu stepped forward, gently speaking to Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman, while the other Ancestor Witches watched her with eager anticipation.

"Brothers need not say more; a hundred years ago I already made up my mind, and a century is enough for me to prepare fully," Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman answered firmly.

"Hou Tu elder sister, this decision is no small matter," Yu Qiang Ancestor Witch said gravely.

The other surrounding Ancestor Witches also wore worried expressions, but when they saw Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman's unwavering gaze, they understood that any persuasion was unnecessary.

"Yu Qiang, you are no longer a child; you must learn to face reality," Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman responded calmly.

"Alas, if so, further words are useless. This time my clan will spare no effort to protect Hou Tu sister's safety," Di Hong Zu Wu said firmly.

"Brothers, take care; the future rise and fall of the Wu Clan is now entrusted to you," Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman bowed deeply to the Ancestor Witches, expressing her wish.

Under everyone's gaze, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman stepped forward, instantly finding herself within the You Ming Blood Sea.

Seeing countless lost souls before her, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman whispered, "The living return to dust, the dead find peace; you will eventually find your own resting place. Death is not an end, but part of life's cycle. From now on, souls shall belong to Hou Tu.

The Great Dao is impartial, the primordial unity. I wish to become the Six Realms of Reincarnation, ensuring that you will neither disperse nor fall.

From this moment onward, I vow to protect every soul, granting all life between heaven and earth the chance of rebirth."

Then, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman took another step, reverting to her original form, her ten-thousand-foot body reaching the heavens as she proclaimed loudly:

"Comforting heaven and earth, I am Hou Tu, having endured the Wu‑Demon War, witnessing the Vast Wilderness Earth's beings ravaged and wronged souls everywhere.

Today Hou Tu wishes to become the Six Realms of Reincarnation, offering all beings a place for rebirth; the Six Realms of Reincarnation, now manifest."

As soon as the words fell, the entire Vast Wilderness World trembled, countless beings felt moved, their gazes turning toward the direction of the You Ming Blood Sea.

Immediately thereafter, celestial phenomena shifted, endless auspicious light descended from the nine heavens, merging into Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman's body.

At that moment, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman broke the Wu Clan's limits, miraculously birthing a Primordial Spirit, and her cultivation reached an unprecedented height.

Though not yet a Saint, she surpasses a Saint.

Now, Hou Tu is no longer an ordinary Ancestor Witch, but an extraordinary being.

As an incomprehensible force erupted from Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman's body, a Nether World gradually took shape, while her body slowly vanished.

In the final moments before vanishing, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman wore a serene smile, turned to gaze at Zhou Yi, and remained in his memory in the most beautiful form.

Zhou Yi suddenly stepped forward, entering the boundless Blood Sea; since Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman has become the Reincarnation, he too prepares to act!

The news of Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman becoming the Six Realms of Reincarnation shocked the entire Honghuang Tian Di, and countless beings felt the change in this realm; even the six supreme Saints turned their attention to the You Ming Blood Sea.

Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who was undergoing the Union Dao process, awakened at this moment from his profound Union Dao realm, his gaze piercing through layers of space directly to the You Ming Blood Sea.

"From today onward, the Vast Wilderness World will enter true completeness; this is undoubtedly the welfare of all beings."

Accompanied by voices full of satisfaction and joy echoing within the Purple Sky Palace, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's eternally unchanged visage rarely showed a faint smile.

"Salute to Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman, grateful for her great virtue."

As the Six Realms of Reincarnation slowly took shape, countless beings felt moved, kneeling to the ground and loudly praising Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman's great contribution.

At that moment, Hou Tu Ancestor Shaman's cultivation reached an unprecedented pinnacle, surpassing the quasi‑Saint realm and entering the primordial perfect realm.

Watching the gradually fading figure, Zhou Yi's long‑awaited opportunity finally arrived; he stepped forward and entered the You Ming Blood Sea.
