Primordial Era: A Counterattack Against Hongjun Daozu at the Start

When that unique flag first flew over the wasteland, everyone felt a sense of panic and unease.

"How is this possible?"

"Have humans and dragons formed an alliance?"

The demon spy stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief, as if he had witnessed the most incredible thing in the world. Thanks to the demon race's innate advantage in flight speed, he was able to transmit information rapidly.

With just one glance, he recognized the dragon pattern on the flag thanks to his keen observation skills.

In addition, he personally witnessed Ao Yin descending over the human race's skies only to be subdued by two other people.

All of this happened in just three days. The human race and the dragon race formed an alliance so quickly that it caught everyone off guard.

"No, we must report it as soon as possible."

He wasn't the only one with this thought; the Wu Clan members were equally shocked, the disciples of Zhenyuan Temple were also filled with astonishment, and even the usually reserved Asura woman couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

She strode away, ignoring the stares of those around her. As they left, Xiao Ling'er and Shan slowly emerged from the shadows.

"Sister Ling'er, do you think it's necessary for them to make such a fuss?" Shan smiled and looked at the huge flag next to him, not finding anything wrong with it.

Then, he even waved his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand. The cold light emanating from this long sword was enough to make one feel a bone-chilling cold.

Even more surprisingly, the surrounding temperature seemed to rise slightly as the long sword appeared.

"Stop showing off your treasure." Xiao Ling'er glanced at Shan, a hint of reproach in her eyes. "Either keep carrying it, or put it away properly. Their reaction is normal."

Hearing Xiao Ling'er's words, Shan stuck out his tongue in dissatisfaction, "Sister Ling'er, your sword can float beside you, I can't do that."

He looked enviously at the blue longsword behind Xiao Ling'er, its blade adorned with red patterns, making it exceptionally beautiful.

Both of these weapons are extremely precious innate top-grade spiritual treasures.

Since Zhou Yi returned and announced the deal reached with the human race, everyone has been so shocked that they are speechless.

Even Xiao Ling'er and Shan initially had doubts about the Ancestor's decision.

However, after seeing those high-level spiritual treasures, all doubts vanished.

Lin Dong didn't care about these spiritual treasures, while Zhou Yi said that with his abilities, he was already invincible below the level of a saint. Even in battles above the level of a saint, these high-grade spiritual treasures wouldn't be of much use, unless they were Chaos Treasures like the Eastern Emperor Bell.

Therefore, these two magical treasures naturally belonged to Xiao Ling'er and Shan, who were very honored by this and would take them out to admire them from time to time.

"Let's wait and see; more changes are coming. We just need to observe and wait."

After Xiao Ling'er finished speaking calmly, the two disappeared from the spot, leaving only the fluttering flag in the wind to witness the rise of the human race.

In the Heavenly Court, Taiyi God and Dijun had complex expressions after hearing the report from the mortal realm.

"Why did the dragons suddenly choose to show themselves now? When we invited them before, they didn't agree. Instead, they chose to ally with the human race and have even become a symbol of the human race."

Taiyi Shen's face was full of confusion.

He couldn't understand why this was happening. When the demon race was first established, the first thing that came to mind was the legendary three innate races.

From a certain perspective, the strength and high status of these three races perfectly align with the development direction pursued by the demon race.

Taiyi Shen and Di Jun even personally went to invite them.

However, the Qilin clan seemed to have vanished and could not be found at all; the Phoenix clan was trapped in the Undying Volcano and could not move an inch; and although the Dragon clan was able to move freely, they were easily dismissed when the two went to invite them.

Back then, their power was far less than it is today, so they couldn't completely break with the dragons and had no choice but to leave.

I never expected to receive such shocking news today.

Di Jun's face was equally gloomy. "They won't make a decision so hastily, unless those old guys in the dragon race have seen Zhou Yi's potential and the current chaotic high-level structure of the human race, so they're placing their bets in advance."

This was the only reasonable explanation Di Jun could think of. But this made the situation even more complicated.

The Dragon Clan's decision indicates that the powerful figures who experienced the brutal era have awakened; these old guys are all highly skilled and experienced.

Once this is done, it will inevitably cause enormous turmoil.

"What we need to consider is, what exactly did the humans offer that made the dragons so interested?" Di Jun said in a low voice.

"Given the dragons' ambition, what they want is definitely not small gains. They may share the same goal as us, taking advantage of the tension between us and the witches to intervene."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi Shen's aura involuntarily fluctuated.

If that's the case, the Witch Clan might no longer be the biggest threat, since they possess the Witch-Slaying Sword, making it difficult for them to pose a greater threat.

On the contrary, the alliance between humans and dragons made him feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Given the past grievances between the two sides, "Brother, what do you suggest we do? Should we strike first?"

Taiyi God suggested, "If we eliminate everyone else and leave only Zhou Yi, he alone cannot amount to anything."

Di Jun glanced at Taiyi Shen, "What about the Dragon Clan? You can't attack them all at once, can you? Besides, if you push the Dragon Clan too far, they might turn to the Witch Clan, which would be the worst-case scenario."

After hearing Di Jun's words, Taiyi Shen fell silent. Di Jun, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes, secretly pondering a countermeasure.

The Book of Changes, oh the Book of Changes.

Since your appearance in this world, this primordial world has never had a moment of peace.

Now, are you also going to join this struggle for hegemony?

Di Jun pondered this question repeatedly, and finally gritted his teeth and made a decision. His gaze refocused on the Wu Clan.

If we can wipe out the Witch Clan in one fell swoop and seize their territory, even if the Human Clan tries to intervene as a third party, given their current strength, they will find it difficult to gain much benefit.

Given time, any potential counterattack from the human race could be completely suppressed. With this in mind, he immediately issued the order:

"Suspend all cooperation with the human race. Immediately dispatch large armies to garrison areas where defensive arrangements have been completed, and be ready for battle at any time."

"Let's put everything else aside for now and observe the situation. The humans will certainly not be the first to act; our most pressing target right now is the Witch Clan."

As for the Witch Clan, after the twelve demon gods heard the information about the alliance between the human and dragon races, the hall fell silent for a moment, and no one spoke.

After a long silence, Zhu Song broke it first: "What's going on? Why did the humans choose to ally with the dragons instead of our witch clan? Does this mean that our witch clan is inferior to the dragons, who have long since faded from view?"
