Chapter 301: Below the Saints I am invincible; above the Saints, one exchange for one!

The Saints' Discussion of the Dao has ended.

The turmoil between heaven and earth gradually subsided.

But at this moment, among the Wu Clan and the Demon Race, it was also not peaceful.

As the saints' Dao resonance gradually dissipated, it ceased to exist.

In the Demon Court,

Di Jun, Taiyi, the Ten Great Demon Sages, Kunpeng, and the others all felt a secret sense of relief.

"Hah... The Saints' Discussion of the Dao is finally over!"

"This time, who knows how many beings will benefit, thus advancing triumphantly all the way."

"If we speak of those who benefit the most, it is probably those beings in the West."

"Alas... alas, we have missed this opportunity by a hair."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh in this way.

Finally ended!

Not bad!

Previously, they felt that vast, profound Dao resonance, grand and expansive, spreading everywhere, yet the people of the Demon Court had no affinity with it, and could not even comprehend the slightest bit.

To them, this was practically a long torment.

Now that the discussion of the Dao has ended, it has actually made them feel much better, with no need to dwell on it further.

And some of the strong could not help but show an envious look.

The Saints' Discussion of the Dao blesses all beings!

After this, who knows how many top-tier experts will appear in the world.

After everyone's sighs, Di Jun finally came to his senses.

"Alright, no need to pay attention to this anymore."

His words caused everyone to startle awake, their gazes gathering on Di Jun.

He then turned his gaze to Bai Ze, Ji Meng, and the other Ten Great Demon Sages.

"Now, have all the star banners needed to set up the Heavenly Stars and Earthly Dipper Grand Formation been completely refined?!"

For the Demon Court, this is currently the most important matter.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze and the others' expressions tightened, and they hurriedly replied respectfully:

"Your Majesty!"

"At present, some star banners are still not finished being refined."

"But the quantity lacking is small; surely it won't take long before they are completely finished."

In fact, this is not because the Demon Race's people are inefficient.

Likewise, they were affected by the qi from the previous Saints' Discussion of the Dao, making it impossible for them to calmly refine the star banners.

Di Jun, Taiyi, and the others were also fully aware of this.

Therefore, Di Jun did not blame them.

Beside him, Taiyi said with a cold, stern expression:

"Issue the order, speed up the progress!"

"But remember, not a single star banner can be lacking, and they must be refined to the utmost divine might."

"Only then can we mobilize all stellar power and bring the formation's might to its utmost exaltation."

Taiyi's expression was solemn and reverent.

Facing an opponent like the Wu Clan, the Demon Court has never been the slightest bit careless.

Moreover, this Heavenly Stars and Earthly Dipper Grand Formation is also their greatest trump card.

Only by doing everything to the utmost can we ensure that in the impending great battle, the Demon Race will overwhelm the Wu Clan and secure final victory in this war.

Upon hearing this, the Ten Great Demon Sages solemnly nodded and bowed in assent.

Immediately, without further words, they each dispersed, proceeding to command the endless beings of the Demon Race, continuing to refine the star banners and study the layout of the Heavenly Stars and Earthly Dipper Grand Formation.

In the scene, only Di Jun and Taiyi remained.

Di Jun's gaze was deep, as if piercing the endless void, staring toward the direction where the Wu Clan resides.

"This battle is not far off......"

Di Jun muttered to himself.

The ceasefire period of one yuanhui set by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun in the past seemed long.

But now, its end is also near at hand.

In the primordial heaven and earth, time is the most insignificant, exactly so.

As they spoke, a sharp, unmatched cold light flickered in Di Jun's eyes.

On the other side!

Within the Pangu Holy Hall!

Twelve figures sat upright.

Besides the eleven Ancestor Wu such as Di Jiang and Zhu Jiuyin, today another great Wu was added.

Xingtian!

And strangely, at this moment Xingtian sat upright, eyes slightly closed.

Yet on his physical form appeared a shocking sight.

Only seen, blood-red lines intertwined, covering every inch of Xingtian's flesh.

The blood-red lines resembled old tree roots, intertwining and spreading, constantly wriggling.

That feeling, as if a mighty, unparalleled qi was surging within, gradually merging into Chengtian's flesh, blood, tendons, and bones, and even into his origin dao foundation.

No one knew how long had passed before the horrifying blood-red patterns finally gradually subsided, hiding within Chengtian's body.

At that moment, Chengtian's aura also suddenly surged.

In just a moment, his qi and blood boiled, surging round and round, and in one fell swoop broke the bloodline shackles of the great-witch level.

Compared to ancestral witches like Xuan Ming and Qiang Liang, he was in no way inferior.

Watching this scene, Di Jiang and the others showed looks of joy.

"Haha, good, excellent!"

"Chengtian brother, at last completely merged with the primordial essence blood left behind by the little sister Hou Tu."

"From now on, I am the twelfth ancestral witch of our Wu Clan."

Di Jiang laughed loudly as he said this.

"Exactly!"

The previous scene was exactly them taking the primordial essence blood left behind by Hou Tu, merging it into Chengtian's body, and undergoing the process of recreating the twelfth ancestral witch.

You must know, the Wu Clan differs from other races in the world.

Their strength largely comes from the inherited Pangu primordial essence blood.

Furthermore, the Wu Clan does not understand the way of creating something from nothing.

Therefore, trying to recreate a nonexistent living being is simply impossible.

Helpless, they could only settle for second best.

Fortunately, Chengtian was already revered as the War God of the Wu Clan.

Now, with the addition of Hou Tu's primordial essence blood merging, he has completely transformed, reaching an existence equal in level to the eleven ancestral witches.

In other words, he took Hou Tu's place and became the new twelfth ancestral witch.

Zhu Jiuyin, Gong Gong, and Zhu Rong also wore delighted smiles at this moment, nodding their heads.

Under the gaze of everyone.

In the arena, Chengtian slowly opened his eyes.

In an instant, his eyes filled with wondrous visions, vast and magnificent.

It seemed as if scenes of the earth spanning and laws surging rose up.

Heavy!

Grand!

Unfathomable!

Nothing else!

That was precisely the law of earth inherited by Chengtian from Hou Tu's essence blood.

"Chengtian thanks all the ancestral witch elders!"

After the breakthrough, Chengtian felt his strength comparable to that of a quasi-sage, and he was unable to contain his excitement.

He immediately rose, performed a respectful salute, and said this.

Obviously, his consciousness still belonged to that of the original great witch; facing Di Jiang and the host of ancestral witches, he naturally felt reverence and awe.

Hearing this, Di Jiang waved his hand.

"Chengtian brother, no need for formalities!"

"From now on, we are all ancestral witches, so we shall address each other as brothers; there's no need to continue calling anyone 'ancestral witch elder'."

Di Jiang's response made Chengtian smile again.

The Wu Clan has never been one for petty formalities.

As for that, nobody said anything more.

Immediately after, Zhu Jiuyin's expression shifted, and he said full of anticipation:

"Now Chengtian brother has become an ancestral witch!"

"If we join forces, we can also set up the All-Heaven God-Slaughter Grand Formation again and summon the Father God's illusory shadow."

As soon as Zhu Jiuyin said that,

The other ancestral witches were also filled with excitement.

This is what truly matters.

Even in a certain sense, the reason the Wu Clan recreated the twelfth ancestral witch was precisely to avoid losing such a terrifying means as Pangu's illusory shadow.

Upon reacting, Zhu Rong, overjoyed, heartily patted Chengtian's shoulder.

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Next, Chengtian brother should first become well acquainted with the All-Heaven God-Slaughter Grand Formation."

"Only when the time comes to use it will one be able to wield it with ease, as if it were an extension of one's arm."

Although Zhu Rong has a fiery temper, his considerations are actually quite thorough.

Although Chengtian fused with Hou Tu's primordial essence blood, he did not inherit her original memories, combat consciousness, and so on.

As for the All-Heaven God-Slaughter Grand Formation, he still needs some time before he can fully master it.

Regarding that, Di Jiang nodded and also expressed his agreement.

Immediately after, Di Jiang spoke again:

"The matter of Chengtian brother's transformation into an ancestral witch must also be kept secret; it must not be leaked!"

"For now, stay low-key; only when the time is necessary can one make a stunning debut."

These words made all the ancestral witches nod repeatedly.

Di Jiang said it well!

Now, as seen by all beings in the outside world, Houtu has transformed into reincarnation, and one of the twelve ancestral witches is gone.

And Xingtian has been promoted to an ancestral witch, but outsiders are unaware of it.

This instead has forged a lethal trump card for the Wu Clan; once employed, it will surely unleash an astonishing effect beyond expectation.

Therefore, Xingtian's transformation has not caused any remarkable stir.

Within the Wu Clan, everything remains as usual.

In the outside world.

After the sages finished their discussion on the Dao, countless mighty figures entered seclusion, digesting the gains from listening to the Dao.

Ordinary beings also each stay in their own corner, devoting themselves to cultivation.

Between heaven and earth, it appears to be a tranquil, harmonious, serene and stable scene.

However, as the end of the truce draws ever nearer.

Some keen-sensed mighty figures, however, can also feel that beneath this calm, dark currents are surging, and a bleak, murderous atmosphere is spreading.

One need not think to know that at this moment, the two clans of witches and monsters are surely secretly amassing shocking methods.

And as long as we wait for the truce to truly end, the peace between heaven and earth will surely be broken again.

Then, once again, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering, horrifically catastrophic calamity will descend.

As for the schemes and movements of the witch and monster clans, Chen Ku is not paying attention to them at this time.

Previously, having emerged from the western heavens and earth, he directly rushed to the outside of Chaos.

This place is exactly where he said he would prepare to enter seclusion and cultivate the Dao.

The Gate of Myriad Marvels opened, and Chen Ku moved with extreme speed.

In the blink of an eye, he had penetrated millions of li into Chaos.

Around him, only ancient deathly stillness and enduring darkness remained.

The laws are shattered, order is in chaos!

The Chaos storms are even more terrifyingly indescribable, sweeping in wave after wave, annihilating everything in their path.

Chaos and disorder!

Even the strands of Chaos aura weigh more than ten thousand jun.

If any other quasi-sage powerhouse came here, they would only feel their scalp go numb and their hair stand on end.

However, surveying this horrifying scene around him, Chen Ku's face showed a satisfied expression.

"The Chaos aura here is rich!"

"This is exactly suitable for this seat to enter seclusion and cultivate the Dao."

These words can be described as shocking the world and defying convention!

However, this is precisely the difference between Chen Ku and all beings.

The Dao of the Primordial Yuan is the most in tune with the various qi mechanisms within Chaos.

In the eyes of beings, the depths of Chaos that are forbidden to tread are also an excellent treasure land for Chen Ku's cultivation.

Upon thinking this, he could not help but sigh.

"Ah, suffering... ah, suffering......"

"This seat cultivates the Dao of the Primordial Yuan; seeking to prove the Dao, it is destined to endure more tribulations than ordinary cultivators and to eat more bitterness."

Although that is so, Chen Ku's eyes gleamed, showing extraordinary determination.

No longer thinking further, his mind stirred.

Instantly, boundless immortal light burst forth, blazing and dazzling, splendid beyond compare.

A twenty-fourth-grade Chaos Green Lotus emerged, and Chen Ku sat cross-legged upon it; divine radiance shone upon him, making his appearance even more solemn and sacred.

"This time, I will surely reforge the Chaos body!"

Chen Ku's eyes widened brightly, his gaze deep, as he muttered to himself.

This, is the purpose of Chen Ku's coming here.

At the same time, it is also the greatest function of the twenty-fourth-grade Chaos Green Lotus.

Its profundity is unknowable to all beings.

The words fell.

As soon as the words are spoken, the law follows!

Boom!

Only see, upon the twenty-fourth-grade Chaos Green Lotus, vast sheets of Chaos lotus fire surged upward.

Clusters of flames revealed a dark blue hue, eerie and uncanny, indescribable.

In the boundless dark Chaos, this Chaos lotus fire appears even more glaring.

After but a moment, the Chaos lotus fire rose and completely enveloped Chen Ku's form.

Hot!

A wave of scorching hot aura surged forth, sinking into Chen Ku's flesh, muscles, and bones.

Every strand of Chaos lotus fire is roasting and scorching Chen Ku's body.

Moreover, although this flame is born from the Chaos Green Lotus,

but at this moment, it is continuously drawing the vast qi from Chaos, making it ever more blazing, eternal and unextinguished.

At this time, if any other mighty powerhouse were present, they would surely be stunned, jaws dropped, eyes wide.

Using Chaos to become fire, to sacrifice and refine oneself?!

Isn't this practically courting death?!

However, only Chen Ku knows.

Under the scorching of that Chaos lotus fire, within his body, a profound and ineffable miraculous transformation was taking place.

Law forges bone, order tempers the body!

The vast, abyss-like Chaos aura was further imprinted in every inch of his flesh and blood.

This was a kind of personal nirvana.

Therefore, although the process was quite painful, Chen Ku gritted his teeth and endured.

The Chaos lotus fire burned away his qi and blood, then gave rise to a purer, mightier power.

Destruction.... Rebirth......

This process repeated over and over.

Thus, who knows how long passed.

Finally, at a certain moment, Chen Ku's body trembled slightly.

He sensed something, and his eyes snapped open.

At that instant, the raging flames surrounding him vanished into nothingness, leaving nothing behind.

Chen Ku sat cross-legged upon the Chaos azure lotus, every inch of his body radiating a lustrous light.

Immortal flesh and divine bone, imperishable and indestructible!

Furthermore, the Chaos-level law and order were thoroughly imprinted upon Chen Ku's Dao foundation, indestructible through myriad kalpas.

"This.... is this the Chaos Body?!"

"Indeed, overwhelmingly powerful!"

Lowering his head to glance at himself, Chen Ku couldn't help but exclaim thus.

He knew that by now he had successfully condensed a Chaos Body.

Before this, no matter how strong Chen Ku was, he still belonged to the realm of flesh and blood.

But this transformation made his entire Dao-forged body, as if cast from Chaos law and order, immortal and indestructible.

This is the necessary path to later prove the Dao and attain the status of a Mixed Yuan Golden Great Luo Immortal, or rather an indispensable prerequisite.

Moreover, with the Chaos Body's support, even if he were slain, he could instantly revive on the spot.

This shares a wondrous similarity with the immortality of sages.

However, sages rely on the Heavenly Dao's protection, whereas Chen Ku relies on the Chaos origin.

"From now on......"

"Below sages I am invincible; above sages, one-for-one exchange!"

Chen Ku, feeling inspired, his whole body exuded a fierce aura that shook ancient and modern times.
