Primordial Era: I, Tongtian, will slay all enemies!

Above Golden Rooster Ridge, the wind and clouds surged, and numerous powerful cultivators from all directions gathered like a tide. Reclusive masters such as the Heavenly Court, Zhen Yuanzi, the Queen Mother of the West, Kunpeng, and Bai Ze also appeared one after another, causing the world to tremble.

Below, on the battlefield, the morale of the troops soared as they watched the reinforcements arrive.

"Cultivators of the Primordial World, reinforcements have arrived! Follow me and charge! Slaughter all those otherworldly cultivators!"

As soon as Di Xin finished speaking, the cultivators who were originally exhausted in spirit and physically and mentally became excited again. They stood up again, gripped their spiritual treasures tightly, and charged towards the enemy formation without hesitation.

However, although the battlefield below was one-sided, the battle between the sages was not progressing as well as expected.

The five figures—Yuanshi, Laozi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Nuwa—gathered back to back, all panting and sweating profusely.

"Huff... Even suppressed by the Heavenly Dao, it's truly difficult for one person to face three Grand Luo Golden Immortals alone. Moreover, if this fierce battle continues, the Primordial World may be on the verge of collapse!"

"This war was certainly terrible, but the recovery after the war was even more difficult. However, junior brother, don't worry, our Western land is already barren, how much worse can it get?"

"You two are really something! At this critical moment of life and death, what's with the distinction between East and West! Just do your best to hold them off and wait for Old Man Bangzi, Houtu, or Tongtian to arrive. I'm exhausted!"

As the three were exchanging sarcastic remarks, before they could finish their conversation, the Eleven Saints from Another World attacked again, and the two sides instantly fell into a fierce melee once more.

At this moment, the primordial world seemed to be facing the end of the world, with rivers and lakes flowing backward, mountains and rivers collapsing, and the earth being overturned.

The once peaceful landscape has become ravaged, the earth is shaking violently and groaning in pain, living beings are crying in terror, and wronged souls are overflowing in the underworld.

Just when the primordial world was about to be completely overturned, Houtu successfully sealed the terrifying rift and swiftly killed the enemy in front of Styx.

"Styx, finish this quickly and clean up Golden Rooster Ridge!"

After speaking, Houtu held the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc and flew towards Nuwa, Duobao, and the others like a streak of light.

Just as Houtu was about to unleash her divine power and wreak havoc on all sides, golden leaves began to drift down from the sky. Everyone on the battlefield, friend and foe alike, involuntarily looked up at the sky, and the fighting temporarily ceased.

"Everyone stop! Primordial cultivators, retreat immediately!" As Tongtian's majestic voice fell, all the saints and cultivators retreated like a tide.

Three breaths later, the World Tree in Tongtian's hand grew wildly, sprouting nearly a thousand thick vines that stabbed fiercely at all the otherworldly beings like sharp swords.

No matter how much the otherworldly cultivators cleaved and hacked at them, they couldn't do anything to these incredibly resilient vines.

A series of piercing screams echoed across the battlefield. Even those otherworldly saints could not hold on and were mercilessly pierced by the vines before long.

"Ah~!"

"What is this? Get out of here!"

"My vitality, my magical power, my cultivation!"

……

The ancient creatures trembled at the sight of the otherworldly beings' miserable state, secretly rejoicing that they were not Tongtian's enemies.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the World Tree grew even larger, its branches as thick as pillars of heaven. The otherworldly cultivators lost all their life force and fell to the ground like fallen leaves.

After eliminating the external enemies, Houtu looked at the devastated and riddled-with-holes prehistoric world and couldn't help but sigh deeply. She quickly formed hand seals, and a huge Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared behind her.

Countless souls flew out from it, precisely flying to their respective corpses, and all those who died in this fierce battle and were not listed on the Investiture of the Gods were resurrected.

"Many thanks to the compassionate and merciful Empress Earth! Many thanks to the compassionate and merciful Empress Earth!"

A series of devout prayers resounded through the sky, but Houtu was not pleased. Instead, she looked at the desolate land and mountains, her heart aching with pain.

"Alright, everyone, retreat! No one is allowed within a hundred miles! Di Jun will lead the remnants of the Demon Court to cooperate with Fuxi and go to Chaos to activate the Zhou Tian Star Array to transmit spiritual energy to the primordial world!"

Upon hearing Tongtian's words, the cultivators below the level of a sage hurriedly flew backward. However, Yuanshi and the others still harbored a hint of resentment.

"Enough! Get out of here at once!" Hongjun shouted sternly when he saw that Yuanshi and the others were unwilling to leave.

"I obey the teacher's decree!"

A quarter of an hour later, Tongtian forcefully threw the enormous World Tree downwards, and then his hands began to rapidly form hand seals, continuously pouring powerful magic into the World Tree.

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, Fellow Daoist Houtu, infuse your own magical power into it!"

Without hesitation, the two immediately formed hand seals, pouring in the vast magical power of the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal.

The World Tree once again emitted an incredibly dazzling light, illuminating the entire primordial world.

The enormous roots of the tree are deeply embedded in the earth, and the vibrant life force of the World Tree quickly permeates every inch of the primordial land.

In the vast wilderness, the cracked earth slowly began to heal, the chaotic veins of the earth gradually became regular and orderly, the reversed flow of lakes and seas slowly began to resume normal flow, and all life gradually revived.

A century later, everything finally came to an end, and the primordial world was restored to its original state, even surpassing its former glory.

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, the Primordial World has recovered to its former state, and the otherworld will not invade again within half a eon. Now it's time to conclude the Investiture of the Gods! Summon everyone to perform the Investiture of the Gods!"

"Fellow Daoist, what about my grand-disciple? Shouldn't he/she take over the Heavenly Court?"

"Let's rely on our own abilities. Fellow Daoist supports Emperor Xin, while I support Haotian and Yuanshi. How about we have Fellow Daoist Houtu as our witness?"

"good!"

The two reached an agreement, but Houtu, standing to the side, was uneasy and had no intention of acting as the notary.

"Aren't you two worried? This calamity nearly led to the destruction of the primordial world!"

"It is understandable that you are unaware, fellow Daoist. These otherworldly beings are not from this Chaos, but rather outsiders from other Chaos."

Houtu initially thought these outsiders were invading enemies from other worlds, but after hearing Tongtian's explanation, his anxiety grew even stronger.

"Wouldn't that mean there's nowhere to defend against it?"

"No, it's understandable that you haven't sensed it yet since you just arrived at the Primordial Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. However, my friend Hongjun and I sensed that the Great Dao has awakened not long ago. The Primordial World has just been invaded, and we estimate that the Great Dao will take action in a few days."

"That's good. I only hope my primordial existence can continue!"

"Now, fellow Daoist, are you willing to act as the notary?"

"Can!"

After Hongjun and Tongtian saw that Houtu had agreed, they immediately began to swear an oath to the prehistoric world in unison.

"The Investiture of the Gods has ended, but the selection of the Heavenly Emperor remains controversial. Therefore, a hundred years later, with the Lord of the Earth as the witness, Haotian, Di Xin, Yuanshi, and Zhunti gather their respective forces to compete for the position of Heavenly Emperor. The victor will become the Lord of the Heavenly Court and control the primordial world!"

These words caused an uproar throughout the entire primordial world once again...
