Primordial Era: Taking the blame to become a saint, proving one's path through eccentricity!

"Furthermore, even if one obtains the Earthly Dao Fruit, can it truly complete the Earthly Dao?"

Xuan Yin looked at Zhu Jiuyin's expectant face, but a deep question arose in his heart: if the underground passage was so easy to repair, then why did the Twelve Ancestral Witches fail in the past few eras?

In the primordial world, Houtu transformed herself into the cycle of reincarnation, which is the most important link in the great trend of the Heavenly Dao. However, few sages were willing to watch the Wu Clan control the cycle of reincarnation and wield the power of the Netherworld.

It should be understood that when the Chan Sect accepts disciples, it places the greatest emphasis on aptitude, and naturally values ​​beings from the realms of Heaven and Man.

The two Western Saints also needed the power of reincarnation to make the West flourish. Otherwise, Ksitigarbha would not have made the great vow to sit in the underworld and save the souls of the dead for Buddhism!

Most of the souls that were converted were reincarnated in the West, and only in this way could the West usher in an opportunity for great prosperity in the future.

The three thousand mortals who left the Jie Sect can be considered the backbone of the sect, while Duobao, Cihang, and others are considered the top-level force.

However, for a tradition to flourish, in addition to the core and upper-level forces, it is equally indispensable to the ordinary people at the bottom who make silent contributions.

Where did these creatures come from?

It can only be Ksitigarbha, who came from the Netherworld after residing in the Underworld!

Of course, to be fair, Xuan Yin still hoped that the Wu Clan could succeed and the underground passage could be restored, at least making other saints wary.

Only then would he have the opportunity to manipulate cause and effect, and seize a glimmer of hope for the future of the Jie Sect.

However, in previous reincarnations, due to incomplete earthly paths, Houtu could only attain a partial saintly status and had no ability to leave the underworld.

Furthermore, even if Houtu were to obtain the complete Dao Fruit this time, wouldn't the other sages still try to stop her?

To defy the will of Heaven is to oppose the many Great Luo Immortals who will attain enlightenment in the future. They will never allow the Witch Clan to arbitrarily alter the course of events!

Suddenly, Xuan Yin's heart stirred. He looked at Zhu Jiuyin and asked seriously, "Leaving aside the matters of completing the underground passage and helping Houtu the Ancestral Witch attain enlightenment, I am somewhat curious as to why Gonggong the Ancestral Witch chooses to knock down Buzhou Mountain in every cycle of time?"

The collapse of Buzhou Mountain would undoubtedly bring enormous karma. Since the Wu tribe knew this, why did they never stop Gonggong?

A complex look flashed in Zhu Jiuyin's eyes before he slowly spoke, "This is, in fact, the last stand of my Wu Clan! Since the will of Heaven does not tolerate my Wu Clan, we might as well reopen the gates of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind, so that those Sages may know the indomitable spirit of my Wu Clan!"

"I know that those sages, after attaining enlightenment anew in each era, are able to access the memories of the previous era's cycle of reincarnation!"

"If they are willing to change, perhaps they can buy a glimmer of hope for our witch clan!"

"Just like Rahu!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhu Jiuyin caused the scene in the Pangu Palace to change again, showing Dao Ancestor Hongjun joining forces with many powerful beings to deal with Luo Hou.

However, in one of the twenty cycles of reincarnation, Rahu won!

This was, of course, something Hongjun did intentionally.

As the first being in this world to attain enlightenment, he was also the first to know the secret of reincarnation. After several unsuccessful attempts to transcend, in one era, he took the initiative to help Rahu attain enlightenment. However, Rahu still could not escape this cycle of reincarnation!

After countless eons, the chaotic universe restarted, and Pangu created the heavens and earth once more. Everything began anew, and compared to the previous era, not much had changed.

The only difference is that Rahu also understood the secret of the cycle of eras, made a great oath, and became the dark side of the primordial heavenly way!

Rahu was also a saint!

However, now that the evil has diminished and the righteous have increased, he has no chance to manifest his divine power!

Xuan Yin shook his head helplessly: "Since Rahu's enlightenment has not changed anything, how could the Sages allow the Witch Clan to divide up power?"

Although there are changes with each cycle of the era, the general trend is still in the hands of the sages, who are all trying to increase their own strength.

For example, Yuanshi Tianzun, having attained the cause of all fruits, also wanted to become the source of the laws of all gods.

Many sages believed that only by increasing one's inner strength through repeated cycles of reincarnation could one possibly escape the eternal cycle of reincarnation in the future.

Therefore, in the cycle of each era, a battle for the Dao is being waged.

Those with advantages continue to expand their advantages, while those without advantages are also thinking of alternative paths and seeking a new way out for their spiritual attainment.

According to the Tongtian Sect Leader, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable wanted to seize the Pangu Dao Fruit to prove the Dao through force, while the Taiqing Sage wanted to gather the Dao of the Three Pure Ones, unifying the past, present, and future, which led to the creation of the Three Pure Ones from One Qi!

The Tongtian Sect Leader, on the other hand, set his sights on the acquired path.

Although the Primordial Dao is profound, it is ultimately born of Heaven and Earth and is subject to them. Blindly pursuing the authority of the Primordial Dao will, invisibly, deepen one's karmic ties with Heaven and Earth.

This makes it even harder to transcend!

The three sages each had their own reasons, and it's impossible to know who was right and who was wrong... After all, no one who has truly transcended this state has yet appeared!

Even Pangu was no exception. He created the world time and time again, and was trapped in the cycle of reincarnation time and time again, but he still could not break this eternal cycle of reincarnation.

The Wu tribe wanted to emulate Rahu, to burn their bridges and fight for a chance to survive, but they underestimated the sages' pursuit of their own Dao.

Rahu detonated the western earth veins, Gonggong angrily struck Buzhou Mountain, and Tongtian Jiaozhu rebuilt earth, water, fire, and wind... all of these were essentially struggles against fate.

But the sages, with hearts of iron, would never back down on such a matter concerning themselves.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun did back down once, but that led to the creation of the calamity of Demon Ancestor Rahu.

With the lessons of the past already learned, how could the sages possibly allow another sage to emerge in the Primordial True Realm?

"Now that I think about it, the matter of Ancestor Hongyun is probably not as simple as it seems!"

Xuan Yin felt a pang of sorrow in his heart. Although he was not a member of the Wu clan, he could still sense their helplessness, the frustration of being toyed with by fate.

Moreover, wouldn't the future Jie Sect be repeating the mistakes of the Wu Clan?

Houtu was also deeply moved. Her eyes lowered, and she let out a heavy sigh: "What has been will be again; what has been done will be done again. In the cycle of reincarnation, there is nothing new!"

In fact, Zhu Jiuyin's approach to Xuan Yin may not have been without the intention of winning over Tongtian Jiaozhu.

Among all the saints, the Tongtian Sect Leader was the one who was suppressed the most, and his Dao was also the one who cut off a glimmer of hope for all living beings, making him the one among the saints most likely to be won over.

Xuan Yin was also somewhat tempted.

But he had no intention of joining the witch clan!

Zhu Jiuyin did not force him, but let him think about it and let Tianwu take him to carefully observe the Dao inscriptions outside the Pangu Temple.

Whether the Tongtian Sect Leader is willing to help or not, they will fight against fate to the very end!

On what grounds?

Is it acceptable to sacrifice the witch clan for the sake of the so-called great trend of Heaven and the interests of the sages?

On what grounds?

Can those future Great Luo Immortals lie on the corpses of the Lich and Demon races and suck blood with a clear conscience?

They are a witch clan...

Dissatisfied!

Since the world is destined to end, why must the Wu clan withdraw from the stage and give way to the future Great Luo?

Since you saints are not giving the Wu tribe a way out, they will rebuild the earth, water, fire, and wind!

This was the idea of ​​many ancestral witches.

Especially tens of thousands of years ago, they could have used Wangshu's karma to wipe out the demon race in one fell swoop, but they were blocked by the future Great Luo and had to let Xihe go. The idea of ​​destroying the world became even more deeply rooted. However, they still wanted to fight for some chance of survival for the Wu tribes, so they chose to compromise temporarily.

However, this temporary forbearance does not mean that the Twelve Ancestral Witches will continue to forbear indefinitely!
