Primordial Era: Refusing Hongjun's path to sainthood, I attained the Dao of Hunyuan.

Chapter 95 Nuwa

Demons rule the heavens, witches govern the earth. This rule established by Hongjun signifies both the official start of the Great Tribulation of the Witches and Demons, and also the beginning of a relatively long period of peace.

Within ten cycles, the two races must not wage war again.

Now, Xuanhuang, after taking Laozi's Taiji diagram and studying it for more than two thousand years, although he had already understood the wonders of Taiji, he was unable to take this final step because of a deficiency in his Dao heart.

Xuanhuang returned to the island and remained in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, but there was still no movement from him.

Meanwhile, in the primordial world, powerful beings from all sides actively took action to prepare for the great calamity.

Some powerful figures joined the demon race, while others joined the witch race. During this period, the power of both races expanded rapidly once again.

It is worth mentioning that the unique cultivation system of the Wu tribe also caused a sensation in the prehistoric world.

Many powerful beings have studied it.

Although there were gains, in the primordial world, the cultivation system of the primordial spirit was the mainstream, while the unique methods of the witch clan's body refinement, development of various physical potentials, and various witch arts were quite different.

It has some reference value, but not much.

After all, the two systems have many contradictions and conflicts, and the path of cultivating the primordial spirit and comprehending the immortal path is inherently difficult.

To have to distract oneself from comprehending witchcraft, studying witchcraft, and cultivating the physical body is simply a waste of time and energy.

It's very likely that you'll end up pleasing neither side.

This makes it even more hopeless to attain enlightenment.

However, not all powerful beings are like this; some powerful beings' paths are similar to those of witchcraft.

However, he gained a great deal from witchcraft.

These powerful figures often joined the witch clan.

The demon race resides in the Thirty-Three Heavens, while the witch race has also split into many large and small tribes, centered on Mount Buzhou, extending to all parts of the prehistoric land, and gradually taking control of the land.

Of course, although the Wu tribe received Hongjun's decree granting them the right to rule the land, they did not simply seize it mindlessly.

After all, judging from what we've seen so far, the twelve ancestral witches of the witch clan are not without intelligence.

They even knew how to conceal their strength, only launching their attack at the last minute and engaging in a great war with the demon race.

No one expected that the other party would be so powerful.

Therefore, although the Wu tribe began to rule the land, they did not violate the dojos of the quasi-saints.

They even took the initiative to step back a distance.

This was clearly to avoid making too many enemies; otherwise, these quasi-saints, representing the pinnacle of combat power in the primordial world, would all become enemies of the Witch Clan.

Even the witch clan wouldn't be able to handle that.

However, the Witch Clan wouldn't dare to attack Quasi-Saint level experts for the time being, but they had a different plan for dealing with those below Quasi-Saint level.

The usual approach is to first offer gifts, and generous gifts at that, to warmly invite them to join the witch clan.

Some powerful beings agreed, but others did not.

Those who disagree will inevitably clash with the Wu tribe over time.

And if this conflict were to occur, who would suffer the most? It would certainly be these powerful beings.

The primordial land was already the territory of the Wu tribe. On the Wu tribe's territory, even if these powerful beings had a hundred times stronger supernatural abilities, they still couldn't stop the Wu tribe.

Thus, some of these powerful beings were killed by the witch clan after their resistance failed, while others managed to escape.

Some of those who fled went to join the demon race, after all, they had a grudge against the witch race and wanted revenge or to save their lives.

Some powerful beings, however, left the primordial land and entered the four seas of the primordial world.

This is also a place to go.

Although the Wu tribe is powerful, they generally do not pursue their enemies into the sea, because the primordial land is more familiar to them.

After leaving the primordial land, many members of the Wu tribe found it extremely difficult to adapt.

However, these powerful beings were only a small minority. Under such circumstances, most of them were gradually devoured by the witch and demon races and joined the two races.

Besides these, it is also worth mentioning that another major event occurred among the demon race over these tens of thousands of years.

That is, Emperor Jun married two fairies from the Taiyin Star, Xihe and Changxi. Xihe became the Demon Queen, and Changxi became the Demon Consort.

This grand wedding, presided over by Nuwa, unexpectedly revealed to Nuwa the red embroidered ball she had received.

It turns out to be a treasure for marriage.

The union of Di Jun and Xi He was also known as a celestial marriage. Once this celestial marriage was completed, merits were bestowed upon them.

Nuwa's cultivation level improved significantly due to this merit.

However, they were unable to sever the third corpse.

Nuwa was naturally troubled and went into seclusion for a while, but she gradually gained some insights.

"My teacher said that I will have a great meritorious deed to do in order to become a saint in the future, so..."

Nuwa pondered and muttered to herself, "My path should not be about severing the three corpses, even if it's done by borrowing merit to sever the corpses."

"But where can I find such great merit to attain the Primordial Chaos realm? What could possibly bring me such immense merit?"

Nuwa was completely baffled and had no choice but to leave the seclusion. She originally wanted to ask her brother, but unexpectedly, Fuxi had already gone into seclusion.

"Never mind, my brother and I are together day and night. If he knew, he would have told me long ago. I'd better go out and travel around." Nuwa said to herself.

Then he left Phoenix Perch Mountain and headed to the primordial land.

It's worth mentioning that Phoenix Mountain, the sacred site of Nuwa and Fuxi, was originally located on the primordial land.

However, the two races of witch and demon are now at odds. The demon race rules the heavens, while the witch race rules the earth. The primordial land has become the territory of the witch race.

Therefore, Fuxi and Nuwa moved the entire Taoist temple of Phoenix Perch Mountain to the Thirty-Three Heavens.

There wasn't much to see in the Thirty-Three Heavens, and Nuwa had long since grown tired of it, so she went to the primordial wilderness.

However, after wandering around the primordial land for a while, Nuwa discovered that even the primordial land was now lonely.

Most of the powerful beings below the Quasi-Saint level have joined the Witch and Demon races, while the rest, if they didn't have other Quasi-Saint powerful beings to protect them, would have fled long ago on this primordial land.

Where can I find my old friends and acquaintances?

Nuwa thought for a moment, then remembered one person: "Nowadays, I'm afraid the only one worth visiting is Sister Xihua."

"But I helped Dijun and the others before and beat up her husband, so she got angry with me. If I go to find her, I'm afraid she will still give me a cold shoulder."

Nuwa was reluctant to lose face, but after thinking for a while, a sudden inspiration struck her.

"By the way, I shouldn't go to Sister Xihua's place, I'm afraid she'll give me the cold shoulder, but why don't I go to her man's place?"

Nuwa muttered to herself, "Besides, I have a legitimate reason to go there. Logically speaking, I am his senior sister."

After thinking it over and feeling more and more confident that there was no problem, Nuwa made her decision and flew towards Yingzhou Island in a beam of light.

Yingzhou Island, inside the Xuanhuang Palace.

Xuanhuang was in seclusion when suddenly his mind stirred. He made a calculation and then opened his eyes.

"Nuwa?"

Xuanhuang muttered in surprise, "What does she want from me?"

"Could it be...?"

Xuanhuang's expression changed slightly, and he silently began to calculate again, but this time the calculation took much longer.

After a while, Xuanhuang opened his eyes again, but his expression was somewhat complicated.

With a thought, two objects appeared before him. One of them was a handful of soil that he had obtained from the gourd vine of Buzhou Mountain.

It is the soil of the Nine Heavens.

There was another object, a gourd. This gourd was just a container; inside the gourd was half a gourd of water.

This water is a divine substance of heaven and earth, on par with the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, and is called the Three Lights Divine Water.
