I, the primordial ancestor, started out as a useless cult and a useless saint.

Chapter 204 All the Saints Start Shifting Blame

This startled Nuwa, who quickly bowed and asked:

"Teacher, what's wrong?"

"Nuwa, the power of the Lich Calamity has reappeared. Although it is not as great as the true Lich Calamity, it should not be underestimated."

"Teacher, what do you mean?"

Hongjun smiled slightly and pointed with one hand, and Nuwa instantly understood.

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher."

Nuwa knew that her power of the Lich King's Calamity had found a place to go.

Looking towards the primordial land, he sensed that Fuxi's countless avatars had entered the human race, and his plan was already half successful.

On the other side, the departing Taiqing Sage called out to Yuanshi Tianzun, saying:

"Yuanshi, did you understand what the teacher just said?"

"Hmm? I hope you can enlighten me, elder brother."

All that could be heard was the words of the Supreme Sage:

"We saints possess the power of the Lich Calamity, and the Ancestor of Humanity has already locked us onto the list of those to be afflicted. If possible, Junior Brother Yuanshi, you should find a scapegoat."

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun was somewhat puzzled. However, seeing Taiqing Shengren looking towards the primordial land, Yuanshi Shengren gradually understood.

"Hehe, thank you for your guidance, elder brother. I have finally understood."

As for the two Western saints? Well, they're already like that, so let's just give up and do whatever we want.

After returning to Nuwa Palace, Nuwa began to make plans, using Fuxi's clone to bear the power of her own Lich Tribulation, and thus transferring it to the human race. After doing all this, Nuwa breathed a sigh of relief, and the weight in her heart was finally lifted.

It's a pity, though. Nuwa was sold out by Taiqing long ago, and right now she's still helping Taiqing count his money.

After returning to his Daoist temple, Yuanshi Tianzun began to think of countermeasures. As one of the Three Pure Ones, Yuanshi Tianzun was not stupid.

"Elder brother has already made the Heavenly Court take the blame. Tongtian has been suppressed. Now, it seems that only my Yuanshi Tianzun's power of the Lich Calamity has not yet been replaced. It is truly inappropriate."

After a quick calculation, Yuanshi Tianzun had a vague idea. Although the secrets of heaven were hidden, Yuanshi Tianzun remembered what Ye Yang had mentioned about the Great Tribulation of the Gods. Recalling the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race, Yuanshi Tianzun smiled.

"Hehe, Tongtian, don't blame me, Yuanshi. Among the Three Pure Ones, you are the only one without karma, which is not right."

If that's the case, then I'll just transfer my power of the Great Tribulation to the Jie Sect. After all, isn't the Jie Sect supposed to be a place where ten thousand immortals come to pay homage?

"However, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods still needs to be conveyed by someone."

Yuanshi Tianzun understood perfectly well that if he were to personally intervene and transfer the power to the Jie Sect, Tongtian Jiaozhu was no fool and would naturally fail. Even if he were suppressed, his holy position would still remain.

If that's the case, then we can only follow the example of Nuwa.

In an instant, the voice of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable resounded from the Jade Void Palace:

"Today, under my name are twelve Golden Immortals: Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Cihang, Huanglong, and Yuding."

The voice slowly drifted out, and the names mentioned were all disciples that Yuanshi Tianzun had taken in many years ago, and their aptitudes were quite good.

As the sound faded, twelve streaks of light from Jade Void Palace rapidly approached.

"Greetings, Heavenly Venerable."

Yuanshi Tianzun hummed in agreement, and then said:

"There should be twelve Golden Immortals under my tutelage, and you are among them, serving as my true disciples."

Upon hearing this, the Twelve Golden Immortals immediately knelt down in excitement.

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable."

They felt an irresistible force pull them up.

"Alright, you are the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, you must not disgrace the Chan Sect. This is the Golden Cloud of Merit of the Chan Sect, you may take it and absorb it."

All they saw were twelve golden clouds of merit descending and merging into the twelve Golden Immortals. In that instant, the twelve Golden Immortals felt a sense of ethereal emptiness.

"Alright, go down and experience it for yourself."

With a single gesture, the Twelve Golden Immortals departed.

"Hehe, Jie Sect, oh Jie Sect, your disciple here will transfer the Lich Calamity to you. I'm sure we'll succeed."

Although he didn't know what the Investiture of the Gods was, he could vaguely guess that it must be related to him, since Hongjun had said before that the Investiture of the Gods was his opportunity.

It's a pity that the Tongtian Sect Leader was suppressed in the Zixiao Palace and had his external senses shut down by Hongjun. Even though he was angry inside, he appeared calm on the outside.

"Fortunately, I had made two preparations beforehand, otherwise I, Tongtian, would really have had nowhere to retreat. The Ancestor of Humanity was right, it's better not to have this Heavenly Dao Saint position. But alas, I can't do anything but think about it."

The Tongtian Sect Leader regretted his actions. If he had known this would happen, he should have listened to the words of the Ancestor of Humanity. Now he was just a stone statue.

But it doesn't matter anymore. The plan has already been laid out, so let's see how the Ancestor of Humanity operates it.

The battle on the primordial continent continued. Ye Yang recreated the Lich Calamity. Although it was not as great as the real Lich Calamity, it still made all living beings in the primordial world tremble.

This also deterred all the saints from participating in the war, as it was the power of the Lich King's Great Calamity.

Chi You and other former Wu tribes once again displayed their ancient glory, fighting fiercely with the demon race, but unfortunately, their numbers were too small.

Although the demon race lost the Ten Demon Generals, the Demon Master Kunpeng, as well as Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, the demon race is still countless, and there are many demon kings among them.

Although the Wu Clan has a pure bloodline, the vast majority of them have entered the cycle of reincarnation, and only a minority remain in the prehistoric world.

"kill--."

The battle continued, with Chi You leading his eighty-one brothers in a fierce and evenly matched fight, but the human race was somewhat demoralized.

Several decades passed slowly, and the human race suffered at least 30% losses, but Ye Yang did not stop. However, this also made Ye Yang feel that the human race's fortune was beginning to recover.

Strictly speaking, the human race's fortune that Nuwa took away is gradually returning. What was taken away was riddled with holes, but what is being taken back now is the essence.

"Hehe, Nuwa, I suppose your Fuxi clone has grown up by now, and holds an important position among the various tribes of the human race."

Ye Yang swept his divine sense over the area and instantly discovered Fuxi's ten thousand clones. Nuwa believed that after merging with the human race's fortune and seizing their bodies, she had joined forces with the saints to shield the heavenly secrets, thus making them undetectable.

However, he made a huge mistake from the very beginning. The human race's fortune that Nuwa gave to Fuxi contained the power of the Lich War. Although Fuxi successfully possessed the body, the Great Seal of the Human Ancestor suppressed it, making it impervious to all evil. Ye Yang knew this immediately.

Furthermore, even if the secrets of heaven are blocked, so what? It's none of my business; I'm not part of the Heavenly Way.

Under Ye Yang's terrifying will, all the endless Fuxi clones were taken in, but Ye Yang did not deal with them. He took back the last bit of human fortune from Nuwa and placed it inside these Fuxi clones.

but

What came into view was the endless suffering of human warriors. The war with the demon race had caused heavy losses to the human race. Although it accelerated the rise of the human race, the price was too high.

Sometimes, friendly fire incidents occurred, especially among the witch tribes of Chiyou. When they went berserk, they would kill indiscriminately, indiscriminately killing both humans and demons.

This has caused great resentment among the human race.

In a flash, he arrived at the edge of the battlefield, where a large number of human corpses were piled up. Some of them were not yet dead, but were left here to die.

"Waaah—".

Suddenly, Ye Yang heard a humble weeping sound. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a child kneeling in front of a corpse, crying.

"Waaaaah"
