In the primordial era: the Wu tribe ceased its struggle for supremacy, and Hongjun collapsed!

"A stray dog..." Yuan Shi repeatedly pondered these four words in his heart.

If that day ever comes and the Wu tribe takes over Kunlun Mountain in the name of "the true lineage of Pangu", what will become of the three brothers?

To fight or to retreat? If they fight, they will not be a match for the Twelve Ancestral Witches if they do not become saints. If they retreat, not only will they lose Kunlun Mountain, the ancestor of all mountains, but their reputation as the Three Pure Ones will also be completely trampled underfoot by the Witch Clan.

Seeing the struggle and entanglement in Yuanshi's eyes, Dijun understood that Yuanshi's heart was beginning to waver.

At this point, if we just take a step back, things will most likely succeed.

Di Jun smiled slightly, took a step back, and broke the silence: "Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, how about I make another suggestion?"

Laozi finally opened his eyes and calmly looked at Dijun: "Fellow Daoist Dijun, please speak."

"The three of you need not join the demon race, nor do you need to take on any positions." Di Jun's voice was clear and bright, and his words were full of sincerity. "My demon race is willing to form an alliance with the Three Pure Ones."

"In name, we are equal allies. If the Witch Clan invades Kunlun Mountain without cause, my Demon Clan will certainly come to our aid with all its might. Similarly, if my Demon Clan suffers a great calamity, I ask that you three, out of consideration for our shared existence as beings of the primordial world, offer us your assistance. As for the previously promised sharing of the Demon Clan's fortune, the conditions remain unchanged. What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi's expression softened considerably.

The word "alliance" does sound much better than "recruitment".

This saved his face, and the benefits remained the same.

Tongtian stood to the side, wielding the Zhuxian Sword, his eyes flashing with sword intent. He looked at his two elder brothers and said, "Eldest brother, second brother, I think Fellow Daoist Dijun is right. Those barbarians of the Wu Clan are indeed domineering. Houtu went to the west to sort out the earth's veins, ostensibly to help, but in reality to seize territory. If we don't join forces, this prehistoric world may truly become the domain of the Wu Clan."

Lao Tzu remained silent for a long time before turning to look at Yuan Shi.

A fierce struggle appeared in Yuan Shi's eyes.

He looked at Di Jun's expectant face, and then thought of Di Jiang's terrifying combat power.

Finally, he took a deep breath, as if he had put down some heavy burden, and slowly nodded.

"Since Fellow Daoist Dijun is so sincere, then the Three Pure Ones accept this alliance."

Although Yuanshi's voice remained indifferent, it sounded like heavenly music to Dijun's ears.

"Good! Fellow Daoist Yuanshi is indeed straightforward!" Di Jun laughed loudly, his eyes filled with the gleam of satisfaction.

Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his right hand, his fingers pointing like a sword, towards the heavens.

"By the Heavenly Dao above, today I, Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan, wish to establish a covenant with my fellow Daoists, the Three Pure Ones. From this day forward, our destinies will be intertwined, and we will form an alliance of offense and defense! If I break this oath, may I be condemned by Heaven and Earth!"

As Di Jun's vow fell, a faint rumble of thunder echoed in the void, as if it were a response from the Heavenly Dao.

Immediately afterwards, with a thought, the enormous golden dragon of demonic fortune above the Thirty-Three Heavens roared.

A dense, tangible golden light descended from the void, directly enveloping the entire Kunlun Mountain.

Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian all felt a jolt throughout their bodies.

The stagnant Primordial Purple Qi, under the blessing of this immense demon race's fortune, actually showed faint signs of being refined.

At this moment, the bottlenecks in the cultivation levels of the three people actually began to loosen slightly.

Yuanshi felt that his cultivation was going much smoother thanks to the blessing of the demon race's fortune, and the last trace of displeasure in his heart vanished.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist." Laozi nodded slightly, which was considered his formal acknowledgment of the relationship.

"Now that the alliance is established, my brother and I will not linger any longer. The situation in the primordial world is constantly changing, and we must make preparations as soon as possible." Di Jun bowed and took his leave.

He and Taiyi transformed into two golden rainbows and instantly disappeared at the end of Kunlun Mountain.

After flying out of the Kunlun Mountains, Taiyi couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "Big brother, you really know how to do things! With the Three Pure Ones dealt with, our demon race can finally rival the witch race in terms of top-tier combat power. Shall we head back to the Thirty-Third Heaven now?"

Di Jun shook his head, his gaze fixed on the distant south, a strange light flickering in his eyes.

"We won't return to the Thirty-Third Heaven. There are still some powerful beings in this primordial world who haven't joined the Elder Hall. Let's go and visit them one by one."

"it is good."

…………

Buzhou Mountain, Pangu Temple.

Houtu and Zhujiuyin have led a large number of elite Wu tribe warriors away from Pangu Palace and are heading towards the devastated western land.

Inside the main hall, the remaining ancestral witches continued their cultivation.

Tianxuan, however, remained calm and walked silently toward the blood pool deep within the main hall.

That blood pool contains the purest essence of Pangu's blood.

puff.

A surge of blood engulfed Tianxuan's figure in an instant.

Upon entering the blood pool, Tianxuan did not immediately begin cultivating. Instead, he sat cross-legged at the bottom of the pool. He opened his palm, and a wisp of hazy gray energy writhed continuously in his hand.

This is the "gray mist" that he plundered from Yuan Feng's destiny line.

Under the terrifying pressure of the blood pool, the gray mist appeared extremely uneasy.

The eerie single eye reappeared in the mist, staring intently at Tianxuan, its eyes filled with resentment and curses.

"Provoking me?" Tianxuan's lips curled into a cold smile.

He clenched his fist tightly, activating the "Fate Plunder" divine power once more. At the same time, the Pangu essence blood within his body began to circulate wildly, and the phantom of the Creation Green Lotus appeared behind his head, drooping down with thousands of rays of green light.

He intends to use the power of the Father God within the blood pool of the Pangu Temple to completely unravel the secrets of this gray mist.

With Tianxuan going into seclusion, the Pangu Palace fell into an eerie silence.

…………

Western lands.

The sky here is always gray and cloudless, with only relentless winds whipping up sand and dust.

The earth was covered with huge cracks, bottomless, like hideous scars.

Occasionally, one can see some tenacious creatures, most of which are strangely shaped, with bloodshot eyes and a violent aura.

Houtu stood on a broken mountain ridge, looking at the tragic scene before her, her eyes slightly reddening.

"This is the West..." Houtu sighed softly.

"Rahu is so cruel."

"Alright, sister, stop lamenting about these things. Let's go find the Western Ancestral Vein first. If the Ancestral Vein is revived, with its nourishment, the remaining branches will be much simpler. We just need to remove the demonic energy and then do a simple cleanup."

"Let's begin." Houtu took a deep breath, and the Earth Laws around her erupted.

Her gentle figure became incredibly tall at this moment, as if she had transformed into the earth itself. The law of earth spread out in all directions from her center like golden ripples.

Her divine sense seemed to transform into countless tiny tentacles, penetrating deep into the earth along the broken surface to sense the pulse that had long since ceased and even dried up.
