Chapter 382: The Birth of the Witch Dao Academy and the Secret Alliance of Demon Gods

"Since this is a matter agreed upon by His Majesty and the Standing Council, our Qilin Clan will no longer pursue it!"

Having been outmaneuvered by the Ancestral Witches, the Five-Element Qilin Kings were naturally unhappy.

However, such was the situation; the Ancestral Witches had already claimed both the face and the substance, so there was no point in arguing further.

Nevertheless, they still had their own persistence.

The Bai Hu Yunlu Yunlu Shenjun bowed to Xiang Xuanqing and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, let the matter of the Witch Dao Academy rest here, but there is one thing I hope to obtain your permission for."

Xuanqing nodded: "Please speak, Daoist friend."

Bai Hu slowly said: "The Witch Dao Academy can be established anywhere on Mount Buzhou, but please do not involve the core area of the former Qilin ancestral land, nor make any changes or destruction to it."

"Our clan has only hidden from the world, not died out; there will still be many juniors in the future who wish to visit the holy land of the Qilin Clan."

"I ask Your Majesty to consider the past merits of our clan and grant this request."

Upon hearing this, Xuanqing nodded and said: "It is reasonable."

He turned to look at the thirteen Ancestral Witches.

【Ancestral Witch of Earth】 Hou Tu spoke up: "We will fold the old site of the Qilin ancestral land toward the inner side of the boundary between illusion and reality, intact, transforming it into a part of the Inner Shanhe."

"In the future, if any of the Qilin Clan come to pay respects, we will never block them."

Hou Tu was once one of the Divine Lords of the Qilin Clan and did not wish to burn all bridges.

【Ancestral Witch of Space】 Di Jiang and 【Ancestral Witch of Time】 Zhu Jiuyin also expressed their stance.

They said: "Our attainments in the Great Dao of Space and the Great Dao of Time are surely known to Daoist Jianbing; we guarantee that we can fix the old site of the Qilin ancestral land and fold it into the Inner Shanhe without damage."

"At that time, even if the Daoist friends of the Qilin Clan live within it again, we will never disturb them."

Regarding this, Bai Hu Yunlu Yunlu Shenjun and the Qilin Kings all nodded in approval.

Thus, Xuanqing wrote a decree and, under the witness of both parties, stamped it with the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di Seal.

"Many thanks for Your Majesty's holy judgment!" Bai Hu Yunlu Yunlu Shenjun and the Qilin Kings bowed to Xuanqing, stepped forward to collect the decree, and turned to leave.

"Sorry to trouble Your Majesty, we take our leave!" The Ancestral Witches also retreated accordingly.

Watching the Ancestral Witches gradually depart, the corners of Xuanqing's mouth lifted slightly.

"The good show of the Heavenly Dao is gradually coming to an end, while the good show of the Human Dao has only just begun."

"I look forward to your performance."

"Of course, I also look forward to more Daoist friends officially taking the stage!"

As his consciousness gradually returned, Xuanqing handed the work of the Heavenly Court to the 【Stamping Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di】 and continued to skip work.

Having resolved the matter of the Qilin Clan, the Ancestral Witches continued to busy themselves with the preparations for the Witch Dao Academy on Mount Buzhou.

The academy was located at the southern foot of Mount Buzhou, backed by the sky-supporting giant pillar and facing a vast plain; the terrain was majestic, and the spiritual energy was dense.

The Ancestral Witches took action themselves, using great magic power to move mountains and fill seas, shifting stars and changing constellations to shape the layout of the academy.

A huge phantom of the Pangu Hall stood in the center of the academy, becoming the most eye-catching landmark, exuding an ancient and vast aura.

Thirteen towering palaces were built around the phantom of the Pangu Hall, each representing the Great Dao mastered by the thirteen Ancestral Witches, with different styles yet forming a harmonious whole.

Di Jiang's Space Divine Hall seemed to contain countless folded spaces within, profound and unpredictable; Zhu Jiuyin's Time Corridor had ever-changing flows of time, making one feel as if they had stumbled into the River of Time; Ju Mang's Life Garden was filled with exotic flowers and rare herbs, vibrant with life and refreshing to the heart.

Zhu Rong's Blazing Melting Furnace had crimson divine fire burning fiercely, tempering all things; Gong Gong's Ten Thousand Waters Returning to Source Pool gathered all the true waters of the world, with surging waves and unfathomable depths; Xuan Ming's Nether Cold Ice Domain was covered in ten-thousand-year black ice, piercingly cold, testing one's willpower.

Wu Luo's Martial Dao Branch, Ru Shou's Geng Metal Mystical Realm, She Bi Shi's Four Seasons Reincarnation Valley, Hou Tu's Thick Virtue Carrying Things Platform, and the Thunder Trial Ground jointly built by Qiang Liang and Xi Zi.

Of course, there were also the teaching divine halls and trial mystical realms of more than ten teachers, including True Lord Wanxiang, True Person Lingzai, Yunlu Yunlu Shenjun Li Ming, and True Person Lingxu.

The Witch Dao Academy was officially founded, and recruitment invitations spread throughout the Primordial World, stating that the Witch Dao Academy did not ask about origins or background; anyone with the ambition to temper their physical body and comprehend the Great Dao could come to try.

For a time, the myriad races of the Primordial World responded in droves, and countless living beings, harboring a yearning for strength, surged toward Mount Buzhou from all directions.

There were the Giant Spirit Clan, with their burly figures and boundless strength, eager to learn the body-refining methods of the 【Ancestral Witch of Martial Dao】 Wu Luo to take their physical bodies to the next level.

There were descendants of gods who had encountered bottlenecks in their own comprehension of the Great Dao, also wanting to come here to draw on the wisdom of others and gain insights.

There were the myriad races of the Primordial World, and there were visitors from the heavens.

Below Mount Buzhou, the crowd was bustling, with various strange mounts and escape lights intertwining, lively and extraordinary, a grand occasion unprecedented.

The assessment of the Witch Dao Academy was extremely strict, testing not only the physical body but also willpower and character.

The thirteen Ancestral Witches sat in command personally, screening those with affinity.

In the end, three thousand disciples passed through layers of tests and became the first batch of students of the Witch Dao Academy.

On the day of the opening ceremony, the thirteen Ancestral Witches appeared together, their pressure covering the world, their momentum magnificent.

Di Jiang spoke: "Everyone, today is the opening day of our Mount Buzhou Witch Dao Academy!"

A short sentence, yet it contained endless power and solemnity.

On the square, there was instant silence.

All the disciples held their breath, listening to the speech of Dean Di Jiang.

Di Jiang looked at the three thousand disciples, his expression serious, his gaze filled with expectation: "We thirteen Ancestral Witches are descendants of the bloodline of Father God Pangu, inheriting Father God's unyielding will to open the heavens and earth, shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the Primordial World."

"And our Witch Dao Academy has only one purpose—to inherit the glory of Pangu and cultivate powerhouses who stand tall between heaven and earth!"

His voice rose abruptly, filled with power: "Those whose Dao hearts are not firm, please go elsewhere; those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, do not enter this door! This is my message to you."

"Regardless of your origins or background, as long as you step into our Witch Dao Academy, you must remember this point."

"I hope that every disciple who walks out of here can live up to the name of Pangu, live up to our expectations, and become a true powerhouse capable of supporting a heaven and earth!"

As the words fell, they were resonant and forceful; every word seemed to contain the power of opening the heavens and earth, deeply branded in the hearts of all the disciples.

Upon hearing this, the disciples were all boiling with blood, their hearts filled with boundless heroism, as if they had already seen their own majestic figures in the future, standing tall and protecting the Primordial World.

"Inherit the glory of Pangu!"

"Protect the peace of the Primordial World!"

It was unknown who shouted these two sentences first.

Immediately following, the mountain-shaking and sea-roaring shouts resounded through the clouds, shaking the entire Mount Buzhou slightly.

Di Jiang nodded with satisfaction, signaling everyone to be quiet.

Subsequently, he turned slightly to the side and said: "Today, to celebrate the opening of the academy, and also to let you have some understanding of the Dao you will learn in the future, we brothers and sisters will each display a trace of the mysteries of the Great Dao; I hope you will observe carefully and comprehend with your hearts."

Once these words were spoken, the disciples were even more excited; to be able to witness the Ancestral Witches display the Great Dao with their own eyes, what a tremendous opportunity this was!

Only to see Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong step forward first; he grinned, his heroic spirit fully displayed.

"The Great Dao of Fire lies in control, in creation, and also in destruction!"

He stretched out his right hand, and in the palm of his hand, a crimson flame appeared out of thin air, initially only the size of a bean, extremely docile.

Immediately following, the flame began to change in his palm, sometimes turning into a fire phoenix soaring through the nine heavens, lifelike, its feathers all composed of flames, exuding a scorching nobility.

Sometimes it turned into a giant burning axe, with flames rising on the blade, as if it could split open all obstacles.

Sometimes it turned into countless tiny fire spirits, happily jumping and chasing in the air, full of spirituality.

Finally, all the flames gathered abruptly, turning into a small blazing sun, emitting a terrifying high temperature that made even space distort, yet it was perfectly controlled by Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong within the square inch of his palm, without leaking a single bit.

The disciples watched in a daze, feeling that every change of that flame contained infinite mysteries, allowing their understanding of the Dao of Fire to instantly rise to a new level.

Immediately following, Ancestral Witch Gong Gong stepped forward; his expression was solemn, and water vapor permeated his whole body.

"The Great Dao of Water can be soft or hard, embracing all things, and can also be destructive."

He pointed a finger, and a drop of azure water instantly condensed in the void, crystal clear.

Under the control of his intent, that water drop sometimes turned into a calm, waveless mirror lake, reflecting the sky and the figures of everyone, peaceful and serene.

Sometimes it turned into a surging giant wave, although it was only a phantom, it carried the momentum of overturning mountains and seas, making everyone feel suffocated.

Sometimes it turned into countless fine rain threads, nourishing the void, as if it could wash away all dust and bring forth vibrant life.

Finally, all the water flows gathered into a crystal water dragon, circling and roaring, with majestic dragon power, showing the supreme might of the Dao of Water.

The disciples watched in fascination, gaining a brand-new understanding of the changes and power of water.

Subsequently, Ancestral Witch Ju Mang stepped forward; he had a gentle smile on his face, and wherever he passed, it seemed as if invisible vitality was being sown.

"The Dao of Wood lies in gestation, in growth, and in ceaselessness."

He waved his hand lightly, and on the high platform, countless phantoms of exotic flowers and rare herbs broke through the soil, swaying in the wind, vibrant with life.

Those flowers and plants grew, bloomed, and bore fruit at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then withered in an instant, turning into dust, and then new tender buds sprouted from the dust, interpreting the reincarnation and tenacity of life.

A rich aura of life permeated, making all the disciples feel refreshed, as if the vitality within their bodies had been stimulated.

Next was the display of powers such as Metal, Earth, Thunder, Electricity, Wind, and so on.

The thirteen Ancestral Witches each displayed a trace of the mysteries of their own Great Dao.

Although it was only the tip of the iceberg, that power pointing directly to the origin, that incredible application of laws, had already left the tens of thousands of disciples present dumbfounded, sighing in admiration repeatedly.

Many disciples, in the process of observing, felt flashes of inspiration in their minds, and some of the confusion in their previous practice suddenly became clear.

Even more so, some had insights on the spot, their aura fluctuating slightly, and their cultivation bottleneck had loosened!

"Too... too powerful! Is this the power of the Ancestral Witch Lords?"

"Just a trace of the mysteries of the Great Dao is so incredible; if they exerted their full strength, what kind of heaven-destroying and earth-shattering power would it be!"

"I feel that my understanding of the laws has deepened by another layer!"

"Wuwuwu, to be able to enter the Witch Dao Academy and witness the Ancestral Witch Lords preaching with my own eyes, I can die without regrets!"

The disciples discussed heatedly, their excitement overflowing, and the gazes they cast toward the thirteen majestic figures on the high platform were filled with fanatical worship and endless anticipation for future learning.

They knew that choosing the Witch Dao Academy was absolutely the most correct decision!

The future path of practice would surely be brilliant and full of infinite possibilities because of this!

The opening ceremony ended successfully amidst the disciples' lingering excitement and applause.

Next, the thirteen Ancestral Witches and many Daoist friends settled their minds and began to teach the disciples.

Their teaching methods were unique, pointing directly to the origin of the Great Dao without relying on external objects, which was a refreshing experience for many students who were accustomed to refining magic treasures and spiritual treasures, and they benefited greatly.

The academic atmosphere in the academy was strong, and disciples of different races communicated with each other, learning from each other's strengths to make up for their own weaknesses, often sparking new ideas.

Some of those with outstanding talent could even comprehend unique Witch Dao divine abilities under the guidance of the Ancestral Witches, combined with their own characteristics.

Gradually, the reputation of the Mount Buzhou Witch Dao Academy spread.

The disciples who walked out of the Witch Dao Academy were all physically strong, firm in will, and extraordinary in combat power, making quite a name for themselves in the Primordial World.

They praised the quality of the academy's education endlessly and were even more grateful for the teachings of the thirteen Ancestral Witches.

"The Witch Dao Academy is indeed well-deserved of its reputation! Practicing here for one year is better than my hundred years of bitter practice!" a disciple of the Zhen Clan praised sincerely.

"The teachings of the Ancestral Witch Lords point directly to the core, giving me a brand-new understanding of power!" a cultivator of the Giant Spirit Clan sighed with deep emotion.

"The Witch Dao is the righteous path of the world!"

The Ancestral Witches had all opened alt accounts to go to the outside world to promote themselves.

The righteous path of the world is the Witch Dao; this was their new promotional slogan.

"Promoting our Witch Dao Academy in the world now is also laying the groundwork for the future development of the Witch Clan, accumulating word-of-mouth for our Witch Clan!"

Inside the Witch Dao Academy, Hou Tu held a closed-door meeting with the Ancestral Witches.

She distributed new mythological scripts to everyone.

"Now the Taiwei Heavenly Court hangs high above the heavens, ruling over all directions, respected by all gods; it seems that other forces have no room for development, but in fact, this is not the case."

"Taiwei represents only the will of the Heavenly Dao, and it is only because the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di is too powerful that he joined forces with the Taiwei gods to complete the integration of the power of the three realms of the Primordial World."

"In other words, the halo of Taiwei is actually given by the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di."

【Xi Zi】 Xuanqing heard these words and wanted to speak but stopped.

He really wanted to refute.

Thinking about it, he gave up.

【How many times do I have to say it before you believe that all this is everyone's effort, not my merit alone!】 Xuanqing sighed.

Hou Tu continued: "If everyone puts aside the halo of the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di and looks at the Primordial World and the heavens, they will find that the control of the Taiwei Heavenly Court over the Primordial World and the heavens is not too strong."

"Taking the Earth Dao as an example, the entire Earth Dao and the Netherworld developed independently of the Heavenly Dao, and the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di did not interfere too much."

"Similarly, the human world is the same. Even though the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di has enfeoffed many divine kingdoms in the human world, he has never asked about the internal affairs of the myriad races of the Primordial World."

"This gives us an opportunity—an opportunity to condense the power of the Human Dao!"

Di Jiang nodded: "Although the current development of the Primordial World is very good, if we want to move toward a more brilliant future, we must have coordinated development of the three realms."

"Today, the Heavenly Dao has been formed, and we have no way to start with the Earth Dao; only by putting effort into the Human Dao is the path our Witch Clan must take in the future."

【Actually, it's not that we can't make a fuss on the Earth Dao side.】 Hou Tu stroked a divine token in her sleeve and added silently in her heart.

She had an immature plan that needed a suitable opportunity to be implemented.

If it succeeded, the Ancestral Witches should be able to intervene in the affairs of the Earth Dao.

【But now is not the time to reveal this.】

Hou Tu took over Di Jiang's words and said: "With the help of the development trend of the Taiwei Heavenly Court, we have successfully taken a solid step in the new era!"

"Next, we need to advance the next step of the plan."

"If we can successfully occupy a place in the Human Dao in the future, promote the birth of the will of the Human Dao, and even master it, it is not impossible to replicate the grand occasion of Taiwei and achieve a legend that belongs to us!"

These words of Hou Tu made the Ancestral Witches feel refreshed.

The completeness of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Daos of the Primordial World would surely create a more brilliant era.

As long as they mastered the will of the Human Dao, moved the current development of the Heavenly Dao to the Human Dao, and replicated everything of the Heavenly Court in the human world, wouldn't they be able to lead the next golden age?

Zhu Jiuyin said: "In this era, the light of the Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di is too dazzling; it is like a lonely moon in the sky, shining through the ages."

"But as long as we seize the opportunity, lay out in advance, it is not impossible to surpass the current Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di in the future!"

【We will, brother, we will surpass the contemporary Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di.】 Wu Luo looked at Xi Zi, who was nodding frequently.

The Taiwei Taiwei Tian Di is here as an undercover agent; can this wish of yours not be realized?

The Ancestral Witches were discussing the future grand plan, and the more they talked, the more enthusiastic they became.

Suddenly, Di Jiang's spiritual sense flashed.

"Hmm? Is there a Daoist friend inviting us?" Di Jiang was puzzled; this call was very familiar.

"We also received it." The Ancestral Witches nodded.

Di Jiang pondered for a moment and said: "Go and see?"

"Good!"

The Ancestral Witches were not afraid at all.

In a strange space, the Destruction Mo Shen of War had a burly figure, his fighting intent condensed but not released; he got straight to the point: "Daoist friends, greetings."

Di Jiang's expression was indifferent, "I don't know why you invited us?" "Let's not speak in riddles." The Destruction Mo Shen of War grinned, revealing a mouthful of grim white teeth, "We come here to seek cooperation."

"Cooperation?" Zhu Rong rushed over upon hearing the news, flames dancing around his body, carrying a trace of vigilance, "We Ancestral Witches and you Chaos Demon Gods have never had any dealings; where does the talk of cooperation come from?"

"Times change." The Destruction Mo Shen of Void, whose aura was ethereal, spoke faintly from the side, "Now the general trend of the Primordial World has changed, and we also need to find a new way to survive."

"A way to survive?" Gong Gong looked over and said, "You Chaos Demon Gods have great divine powers and are free and unfettered; why do you need to seek a way to survive from our Witch Dao?"

"Free and unfettered?" The Destruction Mo Shen of War laughed at himself.

"Are you mocking us, Daoist friend?"

They were all guys who had been hacked to death by Pangu; what kind of free and unfettered is that?

"We know that you Ancestral Witch Daoist friends want to create a great cause in the Primordial World and want to make the glory of Pangu reappear."

The Destruction Mo Shen of War continued, "And we might be able to provide some help to you all."

"Oh?" A flash of light shone in Di Jiang's eyes, "I would like to hear the details."

"We Chaos Demon Gods, although we have not returned to our peak, each of us masters a source of the Great Dao, and our foundation still exists."

The Destruction Mo Shen of War's tone was steady, "If we can cooperate with you, we are willing to offer part of our source power to help you cultivate a batch of top-tier combat power."

"Top-tier combat power?" Hou Tu was thoughtful, "Could it be that you are referring to..."

The Destruction Mo Shen of War nodded, "The source of us Chaos Demon Gods, if it can be combined with the Pangu bloodline, might be able to catalyze a brand-new, powerful existence far exceeding ordinary living beings—we call them 'Great Witches'!"

"Great Witches!"

She Bi Shi's eyes shone with brilliance upon hearing this, "It sounds pretty good, but what do you want?"

There is no free lunch in the world; the Chaos Demon Gods took the initiative to come to their door, so they must have their own schemes.

"What we want is also very simple."

The Destruction Mo Shen of War said frankly, "It is to use your hands to successfully 'come ashore', find a place in this new Primordial era, and even... imitate Hongjun and Luo Hou to get a glimpse of the secret of Pangu!"

"Imitate Hongjun and Luo Hou? Become Pangu?"

Zhu Jiuyin spoke slowly, his voice carrying a trace of scrutiny.

"Exactly!" The Destruction Mo Shen of War did not hide his ambition.

"The path of Pangu is mysterious and boundless; since Hongjun and Luo Hou can walk it, why can't we try?"

Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Witches fell into deep thought.

They had indeed been planning a major event concerning the future of the Witch Clan—that is, the "birth of the Witch Clan" in the true sense.

Although they called themselves Ancestral Witches and there were legends of the Witch Clan in the myriad worlds, the Witch Clan had not truly been born, lacking a systematic, large-scale mechanism that could stably inherit its core power.

They needed a powerful clansman who could carry the Ancestral Witch Great Dao and stand on their own as the backbone of the Witch Clan.

The concept of "Great Witches" proposed by the Demon Gods, and their willingness to pay the source power, just happened to fit their needs and solved their problem of designing high-end combat power for the future Witch Clan.

However, cooperating with Chaos Demon Gods was no different from skinning a tiger for its hide.

Ju Mang spoke gently: "What you Daoist friends say does have some truth."

"However, Chaos Demon Gods have always been unruly; how can we ensure the sincerity of cooperation and the controllability of the future?"

"Sincerity?" The Destruction Mo Shen of Contract stepped forward, a simple and ancient contract appeared in his hand, and he smiled.

"With me here, everything can be established as evidence by contract."

"Moreover, if we want to come ashore, we need to use your luck as the orthodox Pangu, so naturally, we dare not deceive you."

Seeing the appearance of the Destruction Mo Shen of Contract, some Demon Gods still hesitated.

He transmitted: 【Sigh, do we really have to go this far? Cooperating with the Ancestral Witches and integrating into the Witch Clan, wouldn't we... also become descendants of Pangu?】

Once these words were spoken, many Chaos Demon Gods showed complex expressions on their faces.

They were originally peers with Pangu, who opened the heavens and earth, and had had some friction.

Now, to become descendants of Pangu as if "recognizing their ancestors and returning to their clan", it was psychologically difficult to accept.

【Hmph, are you still struggling with these empty names?】

The Destruction Mo Shen of War snorted coldly, his gaze swept over the Demon Gods, and he transmitted: 【Have you forgotten the 'Dream Team' composed of the Destruction Mo Shen of Destruction, the Destruction Mo Shen of Order, and the Destruction Mo Shen of Wisdom, and what their final outcome was?】

【They wanted to go against the heavens, reopen chaos, but what happened? Their bodies died and their Dao disappeared, and their eternal plans became empty in a day!】

【And the 'Dead Ghost Team' formed by the Destruction Mo Shen of Reincarnation, who wanted to control the reincarnation of the heavens, what was the result? They were calculated by the Great Emperor of the Netherworld, turned into a part of the Great Reincarnation of the Primordial World, and their coffins were nailed shut!】

The voice of the Destruction Mo Shen of War was like a heavy hammer, knocking on the heart of every Chaos Destruction Mo Shen.

【The lessons of the past are still fresh in our minds!】

He continued to persuade, 【Now this Primordial heaven and earth was opened by Pangu, and the Heavenly Dao is in operation; it is the general trend. How can we easily shake it?】

【Therefore, 'coming ashore' is the best choice!】

【Don't worry about how we come ashore; as long as we win, everything will be easy to talk about!】

【When the time comes in the future, if we really have the opportunity to become Pangu and hold the power of heaven and earth, we can modify history at will and completely erase this experience from the River of Time; who would know?】

【Besides.】 The Destruction Mo Shen of War changed the subject, his tone softening, 【We are not going to put all our true bodies into it, just split out a part of our source and power to make an investment.】

【If it succeeds, everyone will be happy; even if it fails, for our main bodies, there is still room for maneuver.】

A few words, either coercion, or inducement, or painting a big picture, made the Chaos Demon Gods who were still hesitating gradually waver.

Yes, even old and cunning people like the Destruction Mo Shen of Wisdom, the Destruction Mo Shen of Destruction, and the Destruction Mo Shen of Order had flipped their cars.

How much capital did they, the remaining Demon Gods, have to toss around?

Is face important, or is living and even advancing the Great Dao more important?

The answer is self-evident.

"What the Daoist friend of War said is not unreasonable."

A Destruction Mo Shen who had been silent for a long time nodded slowly, "Instead of lingering on in the cracks of chaos, it is better to fight for it; perhaps we can really fight for a bright and clear world."

"Good!"

"We agree to cooperate!"

The Demon Gods expressed their stance one after another and made up their minds.

The Ancestral Witches looked at each other, and all saw the decision in each other's eyes.

"Since you Daoist friends have made up your minds," Di Jiang said in a deep voice, "then our Witch Clan welcomes you Daoist friends to plan for the future together!"

"Good!" The Destruction Mo Shen of War was overjoyed.

Thus, under the hosting and witnessing of the Destruction Mo Shen of Contract, Di Jiang and Hou Tu, representing the thirteen Ancestral Witches, signed a cooperation alliance with more than ten Chaos Demon Gods led by the Destruction Mo Shen of War.

The alliance stipulated that the Chaos Demon Gods would offer part of their source power to integrate into the Pangu bloodline to help the Witch Clan create powerful "Great Witches";

In return, the Witch Clan would protect these Demon Gods as they integrated into the Primordial World and provide them with opportunities to contact the Pangu Great Dao and seek to prove the Pangu Dao.

Both sides had clear rights and responsibilities, and the Great Dao was the oath; if there was any violation, they would surely suffer backlash.

"I hope everyone has a happy cooperation!"

The Destruction Mo Shen of Contract put away the alliance, smiling, as if he had already seen the scene of mutual benefit and win-win for both sides in the future.

Once the alliance was formed, to show sincerity and to put the Demon Gods at ease, Di Jiang and Hou Tu decided to lead them to the true core of the Witch Clan—the Pangu Hall—immediately for the "reincarnation" ceremony.

"Daoist friends, please follow me."

Di Jiang waved his hand, space changed, and everyone had already moved directly from the academy area below Mount Buzhou to the front of that Pangu Hall exuding an endless vast aura.

This was the true Pangu Hall, the sacred hall transformed from the heart of Father God Pangu, not the phantom in the center of the academy.

Stepping into the hall door, an indescribable majestic vitality and aura of creation rushed toward them, making these Chaos Demon Gods who were used to big scenes couldn't help but be shocked.

In the center of the hall, it was not empty, but a huge blood pool; the blood in the pool was as thick as mercury, appearing dark gold, exuding a rich Pangu aura, as if it were the most original life essence when heaven and earth first opened.

And in the very center of the blood pool, a simple and ancient three-legged, two-eared round cauldron was suspended.

The cauldron was pitch black all over, but from time to time, ten thousand rays of light burst out from within; in the rays of light, one could vaguely see the sun, moon, and stars rotating, mountains and rivers evolving, and all spirits living and dying endlessly, as if the mysteries of the entire universe were contained within it.

An indescribable aura of eternal immortality permeated from the cauldron, making the Chaos Demon Gods feel dazzled just by looking at it, as if they were about to be assimilated by the endless Dao rhyme.

"This... what is in this cauldron..." The Destruction Mo Shen of War's voice was dry, and his eyes were filled with unbelievable shock.

Other Demon Gods were also dumbfounded, each feeling dry-mouthed, and their Dao hearts were trembling violently.

From that cauldron, they felt a supreme, all-mastering, heaven-opening, and creation-generating source of terrifying power!

A proud smile appeared on Di Jiang's face, and he slowly said: "This is the supreme treasure of our Witch Clan, and also the most important legacy left to us by Father God—the Pangu Heart!"

"What?!"

"Pangu... Heart?!"

Even though the Chaos Demon Gods' temperaments had long been as firm as rock, upon hearing this, they couldn't help but be horrified and exclaimed.

They originally thought that the thirteen Ancestral Witches could rely on their own bloodline power to briefly transform into an incomplete Pangu true body, which was already an incredible trump card.

But they never expected that the Ancestral Witches actually held such a heaven-defying holy object as the Pangu Heart!

This was the core of Father God Pangu's power and creation!

No wonder they dared to call themselves the orthodox Pangu!

Possessing the heart of Pangu, if they were not the orthodox, then in the Primordial World, who else was qualified to be called the orthodox?

"With Father God's heart here, carrying Father God's legacy, our actions will naturally be successful." Hou Tu's voice was soft, but carried an unquestionable firmness.

"So that's how it is... so that's how it is..." The Destruction Mo Shen of War muttered to himself, a monstrous wave rising in his heart; the trace of doubt and unwillingness about the cooperation earlier had long since vanished, replaced by endless luck and excitement.

"With this holy object here, why should we worry about not being able to come ashore? Why should we worry about not being able to get a glimpse of the Pangu Great Dao?!" He sighed with deep emotion, his tone filled with infinite longing for the future.

The remaining Chaos Demon Gods were also greatly encouraged, looking at the divine cauldron and the phantom of the Pangu Heart appearing within it with burning eyes.

Pangu Heart, plus Pangu true body, could such a combination not take the lead in the future development of the Human Dao?

【If the Witch Clan can still flip the boat in the process of the great rise of the Human Dao in the future, we will really recognize Pangu as our father on the spot and call him Dad!】 A Destruction Mo Shen secretly hardened his heart, full of unprecedented confidence in this investment.

After the excitement, it was the formal "reincarnation" ceremony.

The thirteen Ancestral Witches were solemn, standing around the blood pool, each driving their source power.

"Hum—"

Inside the Pangu Hall, Great Dao runes shone, the divine cauldron carrying the Pangu Heart trembled gently, and strands of pure Pangu heart blood essence were drawn out and integrated into the blood pool below.

The blood pool rolled, evil spirits and vitality intertwined, turning into mysterious whirlpools.

"Daoist friends, the time has come." Di Jiang said in a deep voice.

"Please put your source into the blood pool, and combine it with Father God's bloodline, and you can conceive a brand-new life."

The Destruction Mo Shen of War stepped out first, without hesitation, forcing out a pure Destruction Mo Shen power containing his own fighting and killing source, and threw it into one of the blood-colored whirlpools.

"Boom!"

The source power entered the pool and was instantly wrapped, assimilated, and conceived by the Pangu bloodline.

Seeing this, other Chaos Demon Gods no longer hesitated, followed suit, and hit a part of their core source into the blood pool.

After offering their source, their figures became somewhat illusory, then turned into streams of light, dissipated in the Pangu Hall, returned to their main bodies or hidden places, and waited quietly for the results.

This was just an investment, a tentacle they stretched out to explore the possibilities of the future.

With the integration of the sources of more than ten Chaos Demon Gods, the entire blood pool boiled.

The boundless evil spirits and various mixed Chaos Great Dao auras were gradually transformed into a pure and powerful force under the reconciliation of the Pangu bloodline.

The thirteen Ancestral Witches joined forces to cast spells, guiding these forces to shape brand-new life forms according to the blueprint they envisioned.

This process was long and mysterious.

I don't know how long it took, when the blood pool gradually calmed down, the strange phenomena in the Pangu Hall also slowly converged.

And at this moment, the entire Mount Buzhou territory, and even countless living beings in the Primordial World, felt an extremely suppressed aura brewing.

Immediately following, an indescribable monstrous evil spirit, like an awakened ancient giant beast, suddenly erupted from below Mount Buzhou, rushing straight into the nine heavens!

The evil spirit was so intense that it almost dyed the sky blood-red, and even the light of the sun, moon, and stars paled in front of it.

A heaven-shaking and earth-shattering roar, like the first shout when heaven and earth opened, resounded through the clouds and shook the universe:

"Witch!!!"

This shout of "Witch" seemed to contain infinite power and will, full of unyielding, indomitable, and heaven-fighting spirit.

Its momentum was so great that it even penetrated the barriers of time and space, shaking the past and present.

Countless great beings hidden in various parts of the Primordial World, and even in the River of Time, were triggered by this sudden change and cast suspicious and uncertain gazes.

"The direction of Mount Buzhou... what kind of powerful aura is this?"

"What are the Ancestral Witches doing again? This evil spirit is more terrifying than any time before!"

"It seems... a new powerful living being has been born?!"

They pinched their fingers to calculate, wanting to understand the secrets of heaven and see the changes in Mount Buzhou.

However, the secrets of heaven were chaotic and covered by a powerful force.

No matter how they calculated, they could only vaguely perceive that the number of future students of the Mount Buzhou Witch Dao Academy would usher in an unimaginable surge.

As for what shocking secret was hidden behind that heaven-shaking "Witch" word, no one could truly understand.

And inside the Pangu Hall of Mount Buzhou, the thirteen Ancestral Witches looked at the brand-new figures slowly taking shape in the blood pool, exuding terrifying auras, and smiles of satisfaction appeared on their faces.

"Turning the fake into the real, today it has finally become real."

"The cause we planted in the past should also bear fruit!"

The Ancestral Witches looked at each other and smiled.

The Demon Gods reincarnating as Great Witches was just the beginning of the Witch Clan.

They had prepared too many things for this day.

Now, it was time to recover those means!

Inside the Pangu Hall, the thirteen Ancestral Witches sat cross-legged, the light of the Great Dao surging, colorful and brilliant.

"Open!"

At this moment, the eyes of the thirteen Ancestral Witches opened abruptly, and they shouted loudly.

In an instant, endless time and space shook.

In every timeline, within the worlds derived from countless mythological stories, there were the same cheers responding.

"Witch!"
