Chapter 127: Fists Strike Dijiang, Feet Kick Xuanming

"What a perfect time!" Tian Yuan swept his gaze into the distance, his face immediately showing frustration.

Without the slightest hesitation, he lunged toward the nearest Ancestral Witch, Jumang.

Now that Dijiang had broken through to the late stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, it would be troublesome to capture more Ancestral Witches; he had to act now.

Jumang, green as emerald bamboo, with a bird's body and human face, riding two dragons, looked at Xingtian before him with a furious expression.

Xingtian was merely a Great Witch under the command of the Ancestral Witch Gonggong, yet he was now fighting him to a standstill.

Meeting the other's fiery, excited gaze, Jumang was even more incensed.

"Haha, the Ancestral Witches are nothing special!" Xingtian danced his shield and axe, roaring repeatedly.

The dense Law of War wrapped around his body, rapidly surging outward and shrouding a large area of space.

The resentment from being beaten up by Gonggong earlier was instantly avenged through Jumang.

The already furious Jumang, hearing these words, felt as if ten thousand horses were galloping in his chest, threatening to burst open with a boom.

A dignified Ancestral Witch, actually being looked down upon by a mere Great Witch, and a traitorous one at that.

"Roar!"

With a roar, his overwhelming power swept out; it was the pressure unique to an Ancestral Witch.

It was clearly visible that Xingtian's figure stiffened, but after only a slight pause, the other recovered.

Although Great Witches were not formed from the Father God's Essence Blood, they were still tainted by it.

After breaking into the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, the influence of the Ancestral Witch Body on them had weakened significantly.

Emerald green Law of Wood spilled out, and just as Jumang was about to rush forward, a terrifying force struck from behind.

Even his powerful Ancestral Witch Body couldn't help but tremble as the overbearing Law of Force swept through his entire being.

He didn't even see what happened; his massive body crushed a large expanse of space and fell into the void.

"Tian Yuan, that damned Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain!" As his figure tumbled away, Jumang was shocked and furious; the other had actually become this strong.

But before he could even check Tian Yuan's position, he felt his forehead get smashed hard, and his entire person fell into unconsciousness.

The roaring Xingtian was just about to slaughter everyone, but his fierce axe strike missed.

A figure flashed in the distance, and the smashed-away Jumang disappeared directly from the scene; he hadn't even seen what happened.

Although his brain wasn't very sharp, Xingtian still understood that Jumang had likely been captured by Tian Yuan.

After all, the purpose of coming out this time was to capture Ancestral Witches.

Feeling frustrated, he swept his gaze into the distance and immediately looked excited; a ferocious giant beast was charging over there.

Ancestral Witch Xuanming! This was an Ancestral Witch second only to Dijiang among the twelve.

With a roar, Xingtian danced his shield and axe and charged straight at him! The Law of War grew stronger against stronger opponents, becoming more valiant with every fight!

"Tian Yuan!"

A sound like a thunderclap echoed beneath the entire Mount Buzhou.

The space outside Pangu Temple also collapsed under Dijiang's roar, turning into fragments of void.

With a swish, Dijiang fled toward Tian Yuan.

Although he had been in secluded meditation, everything happening outside was within his perception.

The Ancestral Witch Gonggong leading a group of Great Witches to defect had made Dijiang very angry, but he hadn't expected Tian Yuan to capture Xizi in the blink of an eye, and now Jumang as well.

The twelve Ancestral Witches were already missing Houtu and Gonggong, and now two more had been snatched by Tian Yuan; how could he not be furious?

At this moment, Dijiang had no heart to wonder why Kuafu and the others had broken through so quickly; he only wanted to defeat Tian Yuan and rescue his brothers.

This Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain was truly too bizarre; Gonggong had hated him so much earlier, even repeatedly ramming into Mount Buzhou.

Over hundreds of thousands of years, he had instead turned against them.

Dazzling silver light flickered; Tian Yuan watched the figure rushing out of the void and looked frustratedly at Qiangliang not far away.

If Dijiang had been just a little slower, he could have captured another Ancestral Witch.

Dijiang was the Ancestral Witch of space and speed; it was difficult to shake him off within the same realm.

However, facing the furious Dijiang, Tian Yuan did not retreat in the slightest; silver light flickered on his body as well.

After such a long time in meditation, besides the Law of Force, Tian Yuan was not lacking in the Space Law either.

Boom! The void shattered like a mirror, radiating flickering silver light across a large area.

"Tian Yuan!" Seeing the Space Law surging on the Stone Man's body, Dijiang looked shocked.

In their past confrontations, besides his powerful physical body, Tian Yuan had mainly relied on the Law of Force.

In a mere few hundred thousand years, the other had actually cultivated the Space Law to such a powerful level.

Tian Yuan examined the four crimson wings on Dijiang's back and asked in a deep voice, "Can you still be considered Ancestral Witches now?"

Dijiang was indeed much stronger, but before Tian Yuan, who held the will of Mount Buzhou, he clearly felt the impurity of the other.

Among the several Ancestral Witches, the stronger their strength, the more mixed the aura on their bodies.

Just as Gonggong and Houtu had said, the Wu Clan that had absorbed the Essence Blood of the Chaos demons could no longer be considered Pangu Orthodox.

"Roar!"

With a roar from Dijiang, thunder flickered between his flapping wings.

"It's all because of you; if not for you, how could my Wu Clan have reached this point!" Dijiang roared hoarsely, his eyes shooting out tangible hatred. If not for this hateful Stone Man stealing the Father God's heart, how could they have ended up like this? It was all Tian Yuan, all this Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain, that they had become like this.

Following those roars, the aura shrouding Dijiang became increasingly violent.

Feeling Dijiang's current state, Tian Yuan's expression was somewhat grave.

Earlier, although the Ancestral Witches were angry and crazy, Dijiang at least still had a shred of reason; now, he was completely deranged.

The Wu Clan that absorbed the blood and energy of those corpses had already been influenced by the Chaos demons.

The Chaos demons had been dead for countless Measure Eons, yet the lingering obsessions in their corpses could still influence the Ancestral Witches; perhaps it had to do with the Wu Clan's inherently irritable nature.

With many thoughts passing through his mind, Tian Yuan's peripheral vision unconsciously swept toward the surrounding Ancestral Witches.

This discovery undoubtedly made Tian Yuan decide to accelerate the capture of the Ancestral Witches.

Dijiang, already furious, saw Tian Yuan looking toward the distance and immediately knew what he was thinking.

His wings on his back fluttered repeatedly, and in an instant, the void was filled with dazzling silver radiance; Dijiang's figure permeated the entire space.

"Troublesome!" Seeing this, Tian Yuan felt a bit gloomy in his heart.

Just a moment ago, Zhu Jiuyin's strange Time Wheel had cost him some effort, and it turned out Dijiang also had his own unique methods.

Ancestral Witches are born with laws, but they love hand-to-hand combat, and of course, very few people can force them to use other means. Unfortunately, Tian Yuan's physical body is not inferior to the Ancestral Witches, and he also possesses an Ancestral Witch Body.

Since the opponent's cultivation level is on par with his, it would be slim to hope for another chance to capture other Ancestral Witches.

Now he only hopes that Huluwa and Fuxi, who went quietly, will have a great harvest, or that Houtu can give him a surprise.

Having communicated with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Houtu is naturally not just an Ancestral Witch at the Hunyuan Golden Immortal Mid-Stage.

"Ah!"

A scream came from afar; Xuanming slammed into Xingtian, sending him flying, and charged fiercely toward Tian Yuan.

Behind him, space tore open, and Zhu Jiuyin followed closely, also heading straight for Tian Yuan.

It was clear that Xuanming and Zhu Jiuyin were both very angry that Tian Yuan had captured Jumang and Xizi.

Once brought into that space by Tian Yuan, they might be turned against their own by his inexplicable methods; if they didn't save them now, there would be no chance later.

Seeing this, Tian Yuan was not angry but happy; fighting three Ancestral Witches alone would just happen to reduce the pressure on Houtu and the others, and they might even have unexpected gains.

Although Dijiang and the others were fierce, Tian Yuan's cultivation over these hundreds of thousands of years was not to be underestimated either.

Colorful laws emerged around his body, surrounding him and illuminating the surrounding space with brilliance.

After the will of Mount Buzhou strengthened, his cultivation of laws became much faster.

Setting aside his own Earth Law, he also focused on cultivating force and space, and the remaining laws were also very powerful.

Although this avatar of Mount Buzhou still could not move, the benefits it fed back to him were simply immeasurable.

Let alone just the three Ancestral Witches like Dijiang, even if all Ten Great Ancestral Witches came at once, Tian Yuan would not fear them.

With a loud roar, he backhanded a punch that sent Xuanming flying, kicked away Zhu Jiuyin who had emerged from the void, and collided fiercely with Dijiang's massive body.

Brilliant radiance enveloped a large area, and the overflowing power made people tremble in their hearts.

Kuafu, Houyi, and the others fighting on the side also retreated in panic toward the distance.

High in the sky, Di Jun and Taiyi stared wide-eyed at the scene below, their faces unable to hide their shock.

From the moment Tian Yuan escaped from that void, turned his hand to capture Jumang, and then fought three Ancestral Witches, it was all a matter of an instant.

How did this Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain become so terrifying? "Brother, this stone man is likely a great enemy of our Demon Court!" Taiyi said with a dark face, cold light flickering in his eyes.

Earlier, they thought it was an internal strife of the Wu Clan, but now it seemed that Houtu, Gonggong, and the others had been turned by Tian Yuan.

Turned the Ancestral Witches? Di Jun and Taiyi did not know how to describe this thought in their minds.

Originally, they were shocked by the Wu Clan's encounters and regarded the Ancestral Witches as great enemies, but now all their attention was focused on Tian Yuan.

A stone man who was previously unknown and only entered the eyes of many Innate Sacreds a few hundred thousand years ago had easily persuaded Houtu, Gonggong, and a group of the Wu Clan.

Houtu could be set aside, as she was relatively gentle among the many Ancestral Witches, but the Ancestral Witch Gonggong was notoriously bad-tempered.

Violent and brainless meant the opponent was stubborn.

Wanting to make such a guy defect was completely impossible.

But Tian Yuan did it, and even led Houtu and Gonggong to beat up the remaining Ancestral Witches, and turned his hand to capture two more.

"Baize!" Di Jun nodded and called out behind him.

Baize, who was also in shock, hurriedly came back to his senses and stepped forward respectfully: "Lord Demon Emperor!"

"Find out everything about the origin of the Stone Man of Buzhou Mountain; do not miss a single detail," Di Jun ordered in a deep voice.

Tian Yuan captured Ancestral Witches and took away many of the Wu Clan, but Di Jun also remembered that the other party had also captured many of the Demon Race earlier.

Chitie, one of the Ten Great Demon Sages of the Demon Court, was captured by Tian Yuan.

Di Jun guessed in his heart that Fuxi, who had gone to Mount Buzhou earlier and disappeared, had likely also fallen into Tian Yuan's hands.

"Baize understands!" Baize nodded respectfully.

He could not see the battle circle clearly, but the roars that rang out from time to time made him understand who the protagonist of the battle was.

Tian Yuan, that stone man on Mount Buzhou! The current internal strife of the Wu Clan might all have been caused by this person!
