Primordial Era: Taibai, the Poison Master of Yaochi, drives a Sage insane!

Remember this name: . Remember this domain name: . Good books won't lead you astray.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The Battle of Zhuolu was at its most intense, and unbeknownst to anyone, a marriage banquet concerning the survival of the witch and human races was quietly beginning in the shadows.

This alliance was secretly agreed upon and was not held in the capital city of Shaohao under Zhuanxu, but in a remote valley deep in the Great Wilderness.

This place, surrounded by mountains, with stagnant earth energy and tranquil void, appears secluded and isolated from the world. In reality, it is a pre-selected killing ground, the perfect place to lay a net of heaven and earth, a deadly array.

Jiufeng attended the banquet alone, dressed in red, with a cold and aloof demeanor, exuding an indescribable air of disdain.

Without a doubt, the current chieftain of the Witch Clan is a powerful figure of this era.

Jiufeng remained calm and composed, seemingly keeping the appointment, but in reality, she was clear-headed and had already memorized all of Taibai's conspiracy. She was on guard, waiting for the other party to reveal his fangs.

They knew everything about the ambush formation, how the poisoned wine was only effective against the Wu Clan, Lu Ya's Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, and Guang Chengzi's ambush. In particular, they knew about the nuptial wine, which was specially made to target Jiu Feng and could instantly destroy Jiu Feng's primordial spirit, but it was harmless to humans!

The entire formation is the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Formation, which is set up by the Primordial Chaos Talisman. The entire formation directly transforms into Primordial Spacetime, and all the laws become ineffective!

Once the grand formation is activated, it transforms directly into a chaotic, independent space-time, forming its own realm that is isolated from the laws and the energy of heaven and earth!

These are all prophets of time travelers. Right now, Li Bai doesn't care about the final battle against the Jiuli. This is a matter for the Chan Sect and has nothing to do with the current Yaochi Wonderland.

If the Jiuli and Wu tribes are wiped out, it will be extremely difficult for Yaochi Wonderland to plot anything!

The Battle of Zhuolu and the outcome of the battle between Xuanyuan Chiyou were essentially a game of chess and a scheme for merit within the Chan Sect itself.

That was what Yuanshi, Guangchengzi, and the Chan Sect were vying for: the destiny of the Human Emperor, the legitimacy of the human race, and the right to speak in the Heavenly Court.

It had nothing to do with the Jade Pool Wonderland. Li Bai had no intention of getting involved in the Chan Sect's schemes, nor was he interested in helping Chi You or Xuanyuan.

Li Bai only cared about one thing: he couldn't let the Wu tribe and Jiuli be completely wiped out, so that the Jade Pool Wonderland could take advantage of the chaos.

Once the Jiuli tribe is defeated and the remnants of the Wu tribe are wiped out.

No force in the primordial world could stop the Chan Sect from controlling the human race, dominating the Heavenly Court, and monopolizing destiny.

With the sage holding absolute power and no one to restrain him, Li Bai had no allies to leverage or counterbalance him when he wanted to make his plans, seize literary opportunities, share in the merits of Heaven, or break free from the sage's control.

Once the Wu Clan and Jiuli are destroyed, the situation will directly change to one where the Chan Sect holds absolute power. Haotian is incompetent and the Six Sages each have their own agendas. No one dares to confront the Chan Sect head-on. If Yaochi wants to make any plans, seize any opportunities, or establish any lineage, she will be directly suppressed and hindered by the Chan Sect at every turn. She will face countless difficulties and obstacles, with no chance of breaking the deadlock.

Li Bai's visit to Jiufeng this time has two purposes: one is to ensure the survival of the Jiuli tribe, and the other is to break the seal.

As for why the Sage wouldn't harm Jiufeng, there's another reason: Reincarnation is in Houtu's hands, and if the Sage were to directly attack her, it would be a complete break with their relationship.

In the center of the valley, Zhuanxu was already waiting.

Zhuanxu was dressed in the ceremonial robes of a human tribal chief. His face was gentle and composed, but his eyes concealed a deep and sinister scheming. On the surface, however, he appeared sincere, earnest, and open-minded, showing no trace of cunning or murderous intent.

Jiufeng glanced around, her gaze instantly settling on the high platform in the very center of the valley.

On the high stone table, a black sword lay silently, its blade shrouded in endless desolate and malevolent energy, faintly shaking the heavens and earth!

The sword's blade gleamed coldly, exuding a terrifying aura. Just its mere presence hovering in the void caused the Great Witch's blood energy to tremble.

It is the primordial, ferocious weapon, the Slayer Sword!

Jiufeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and in an instant, she confirmed what Taibai had said, and all her suspicions were put to rest.

Seeing this, Zhuanxu stepped forward slowly, his tone gentle and sincere, feigning frankness: "The Nine Phoenixes and the Great Phoenix have arrived as promised, which proves their trustworthiness. The Great Shaman should recognize this sword; it is the only weapon in the world capable of harming a Great Shaman—the Shaman-Slaying Sword."

"Everyone knows this sword is specifically designed to subdue the Wu tribe. Today, I have brought this sword to this banquet to show the Great Wu my utmost sincerity. Now that the wedding ceremony has concluded, I will present this sword to the Great Wu, to demonstrate my unwavering loyalty to the Wu tribe and my vow to rule the world together with both the human and Wu tribes!"

Jiufeng's mind trembled slightly, not from panic or fear, but from a silent admiration for Zhuanxu's deep scheming and convincing disguise.

This person not only wanted to kill her, but also wanted to use an unparalleled weapon as bait before killing her, completely lulling her into a false sense of security. The plan was so meticulous that it was practically flawless.

Nine Phoenixes slowly swept their gaze across the entire valley, their divine sense quietly spreading in all directions.

However, she couldn't see anything, but Jiu Feng suddenly realized that the less obvious something seemed, the more dangerous it was!

The killing intent has arrived; the dead end is inevitable.

Jiufeng remained calm and composed, showing no sign of weakness, and pretended to be completely unaware as she slowly spoke: "I didn't expect that Chief Zhuanxu would have such courage to actually deliver the Witch-Slaying Sword to my doorstep. This frankness alone is enough for me to trust you this once."

Upon hearing this, a hint of smugness flashed in Zhuanxu's eyes, and his face became even more humble: "Since it is an alliance between the two races and a promise of eternal rule, we must naturally show our utmost sincerity. If we harbor any secrets or treachery, we will be breaking faith with Heaven and Earth and betraying the trust of the Wu tribe."

Jiufeng slowly stepped forward, making a gesture as if to reach out and take the Witch-Slaying Sword from the high platform.

Just then, Zhuanxu gently raised his hand to stop him, his smile gentle but concealing a scheme: "Great Shaman, wait. The sword is treacherous, the alliance comes first. Today, we are to be united in marriage, forging an eternal bond between our two races. We should first swear an oath and complete the wedding ceremony. Only after we are united as one and the shamanic alliance is finalized can this sword be presented to the Great Shaman in a dignified manner, thus achieving a perfect union."

Jiufeng lowered her gaze slightly, nodded in response, and feigned composure: "Very well, since Chief Zhuanxu's intentions are sincere, I will do as you say."

As soon as the words fell, two ceremonial attendants emerged from the shadows of the valley, presenting a pair of ancient jade cups filled with clear spiritual wine. The wine had a pure and lingering aroma and showed no signs of abnormality; it was the nuptial wine exclusively used by ancient shamans for marriage.

Zhuanxu gazed at the spirit wine in the cup and slowly spoke, feigning reminiscence and emotion: "In ancient times, the shamans were allies, intermarrying for generations and jointly protecting the primordial world. The rituals, recipes, and stories behind this nuptial wine are all things that the ancient shamans dared not forget in their weddings. Today, we are retracing these ancient rites to recreate the glorious past, allowing the shamans and the sorcerers to continue their bond, break free from their constraints, and jointly govern the primordial world."

Jiufeng nodded slightly, echoing her praise, her tone sincere: "I never expected that the clan leader would be so knowledgeable about the ancient shamanic rituals and stories. His sincerity is truly rare. Now that I have entered into this marriage and reaffirmed the ancient covenant, let us drink this wine together and be forever united in heart."

Zhuanxu said no more, took the jade cup, tilted his head back and drank half of it down. His movements were open and natural, and the wine entered his body without any abnormality. He looked like he was sincerely making a pact.

He then handed the remaining half cup of nuptial wine to Jiufeng.

Jiufeng's eyes were deep and her heart was crystal clear.

This poison specifically targets the bloodline of Pangu and erodes the primordial spirit of the only Wu clan. It is harmless to humans, only targeting the poison itself, making it a deadly poison that is the natural enemy of the Wu clan.

Actually, this poison doesn't have a name, because Jiufeng is a unique primordial spirit witch in the prehistoric world, and it is a law-based poison specifically created by a sage to target Jiufeng!

Taibai had already revealed all the secrets in advance, so how could Jiufeng fall for it!

In the blink of an eye, Chapter 25 of the novel, available for free online, reveals the ingenious plan of the Chan Sect to secure the world, but ultimately resulted in the loss of both wife and army! (Link: [link missing]). Jiufeng remained unmoved, her lips slightly parted, quietly activating the spatial laws surrounding her.

An invisible membrane quietly envelops the lips and esophagus, isolating the inside from the outside and separating the real from the virtual.

Jiufeng raised her hand to take the wine cup, tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp, her movements frank and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

After drinking the nuptial wine, the simple yet solemn shamanic wedding ceremony was held as scheduled.

The two made a vow and pact according to ancient rites, their words sincere, every word a promise of co-rule by shamans and humans, breaking free from the shackles of the saints, and jointly ruling the world.

As the wedding ceremony concluded and dusk fell, the simple bridal chamber set up in the valley remained quiet and solemn.

Zhuanxu sighed first: "Great Witch, do you know that my heart has long harbored resentment? My grandfather, Xuanyuan, was obsessed with power and coveted the rightful succession to the Human Emperor. In order to seize the world, he did not hesitate to completely submit to the Chan Sect and obey the sages. If this continues, the human race will become a puppet of the sages and an appendage of the immortal sects, firmly controlled by the sages, with no chance of autonomy, forever groveling under the immortal sects, and losing its path to becoming a top race in the prehistoric world. I am unwilling for the human race to sink to such a state! Only by restarting the alliance between the witches and humans, joining forces with the witches, breaking free from the shackles of the sages, and uniting the two races can we truly control the destiny of heaven and earth and achieve unparalleled hegemony."

Jiufeng sighed softly, feigning deep agreement: "What you say is absolutely right. I have also asked Chiyou several times to persuade Xuanyuan to shake hands and make peace, and jointly resist the Immortal Sect. However, Xuanyuan is stubborn and unrepentant, wholeheartedly relying on the Chan Sect, willing to be a pawn of the Sage. I never expected that there would be such a far-sighted person as our clan leader among the human race. It is truly rare. Today's marriage alliance is a blessing for our Wu clan and for the human race."

A glint of light appeared in Zhuanxu's eyes as he continued to make empty promises, outlining a grand blueprint for a prosperous era, completely numbing Jiufeng's mind.

"From this day forward, we shall be one, the Wu and the Human races inseparable, sharing both glory and shame. When the decisive battle begins, the Wu race will secretly send troops to launch a surprise attack on Xuanyuan's army from the rear, aiding the Jiuli tribe in victory. After the war, we shall jointly govern the land and share the destiny equally. The Wu race shall return to the mainstream of heaven and earth, and the Human race shall break free from the control of the Sages. The two races shall jointly rule the primordial world, recreating the ancient golden age!"

His heartfelt words, sincere and moving, were enough to convince ordinary people.

Jiufeng pretended to sway, her face instantly turning deathly pale. Her body flickered between light and shadow, her spiritual energy became disordered, as if her meridians were blocked and her primordial spirit was injured, and she was about to collapse.

Then he staggered half a step, a trickle of scarlet blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. Feigning pain and anger, he cried out, "This wine...this wine is poisoned!"

At that very moment, all the gentleness on Zhuanxu's face vanished instantly!

"Hahaha! Poison? This is a rare innate poison specifically designed to suppress your Wu clan's primordial spirit and seal your Pangu bloodline! Jiufeng, your Wu clan's remnants are barely clinging to life, already remnants of the world. Do you even deserve to rule the world with the human race? You are truly laughable!"

"Hahaha! Poison? This is a rare innate poison specifically designed to suppress your Wu clan's primordial spirit and seal your Pangu bloodline! Jiufeng, your Wu clan's remnants are barely clinging to life, already remnants of the world. Do you even deserve to rule the world with the human race? You are truly laughable!"

The moment the words left his mouth, the entire valley shook violently!

Countless array patterns surged into the sky, sealing off the four directions of heaven and earth, and the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array was instantly fully activated!

The formation strangled the energy, sealed the bloodline, and suppressed the primordial spirit, completely locking down the entire void. Escape techniques failed, space collapsed, and there was no way to retreat!

At the same time, countless divine and immortal pressures resounded from all directions, and the killing intent of the Chan Sect swept in overwhelmingly!

From the depths of the void, a voice filled with killing intent suddenly boomed, piercing through layers of mist: "Please show yourself, my darling! Please turn around, my darling!"

It was none other than Daoist Lu Ya!

Lu Ya is now in cahoots with the Chan Sect; otherwise, he wouldn't have had such a relationship with the Chan Sect during the Investiture of the Gods.

Before the words were finished, an extremely dazzling white blade of light ripped through the void. It was incredibly fast and unstoppable. The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, which was designed to slay the primordial spirit and annihilate powerful beings, locked onto the head of the Nine Phoenixes and slashed down with a thunderous roar, directly severing the primordial spirit of the Nine Phoenixes!

At the same time, light and shadow exploded in all directions around the great formation!

Guang Chengzi led a group of Golden Immortals from the Chan Sect to appear together. Their immortal light was overwhelming and their magical treasures were everywhere. They completely surrounded and blocked all the way out. Their killing intent was fierce. They were determined to kill Jiu Feng on the spot and grind her bones to dust!

"That traitor Zhuanxu! That immortal of the Chan Sect! How dare you set up such a vicious trap to frame me!"

Nine Phoenix roared angrily, her voice echoing through the valley. She pretended to be seriously injured and powerless, barely able to win. She feigned severe pain in her body and that her spirit was swaying, as if she was about to collapse and retreat.

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife was incredibly fast, instantly landing on Jiu Feng's head, its snow-white blade slashing fiercely at her head!

Nine Phoenixes were not very afraid of the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife. Firstly, they were confident in their physical body, which was as strong as a top-grade innate defensive spiritual treasure. Secondly, they had nine heads!

But the next moment, an astonishing scene unfolded!

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife fell, and the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out, causing the array patterns in all directions to tremble violently!

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, powerful enough to kill a Great Luo Golden Immortal and shatter a primordial spirit, struck Jiu Feng's physical body, only causing sparks to fly everywhere. It couldn't even break through Jiu Feng's true form as a member of the Witch Clan!

Upon seeing this, Lu Ya Daojun, high above in the void, exclaimed in utter shock and disbelief: "How could this be! As expected of a top-tier great witch of the Wu Clan, your body, forged from the essence of Pangu's blood, is so incredibly powerful! However, you can withstand one or ten strikes, but can you withstand a hundred or a thousand? This is the Absolute Witch Formation, specifically designed to counter the Wu Clan's bloodline. It will wear you down to death! You can't escape now!"

Boom!

The grand formation erupted at full power, and the Primordial Chaos Talisman unleashed boundless Yin-Yang annihilation power, instantly annihilating everything in its path.

Just when all the immortals and gods thought the situation was settled and Jiufeng was doomed!

Jiufeng will no longer pretend or hide!

With a terrifying aura emanating from him, and a deafening roar, the true form of the Nine-Headed Divine Bird was fully revealed!

Nine heads roared in unison, echoing throughout the wilderness and shaking heaven and earth. The terrifying primordial laws of the Witch Clan swept across the eight wastelands, tearing apart the array of mist!

The twelve fundamental laws of the Witch Clan crisscrossed the void, tearing open a clear sky within the deadly array!

In the instant that everyone was shocked and stunned, and the formation was shaken, one of the Nine Phoenixes’ enormous divine claws stretched out from the air, swept across the high platform in an instant, and firmly grasped the Witch-Slaying Sword!

Yes, in order to dispel Jiu Feng's suspicions, the Slaughtering Witch Sword was not put away. Otherwise, even a fool would know it was a scheme. To show sincerity, the Slaughtering Witch Sword had to be taken out. It was specially designed to break the body of a Great Witch, and Jiu Feng needed to trust it!

But at this moment, Jiufeng's goal is to take away the Witch-Slaying Sword!

The sword trembled violently, but it could not move under the suppression of Jiu Feng's Pangu primordial bloodline!

Nine phoenixes raised their nine heads in unison, their eyes icy and piercing, their voices shaking the entire arena, filled with endless mockery and killing intent: "You little brat Zhuanxu, do you think you can ambush and kill me with just a cup of poisoned wine, a trapping formation, and a flying knife? Since you have sincerely offered the Witch-Slaying Sword as bait, then this ancient and ferocious weapon will belong to me today!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the spatial laws surrounding Jiu Feng erupted completely!

Jiufeng, wielding the Slaughtering Witch Sword, directly shattered the great formation. A loud rumble echoed through the void, and space was completely broken, revealing a massive void rift!

Without lingering any longer, Jiufeng flashed, carrying the true form of the nine-headed divine bird and wielding the Witch-Slaying Sword, and stepped into the void rift, instantly disappearing into space without a trace!

All the immortals of the Chan Sect, Lu Ya, and Zhuanxu stood frozen in place, staring blankly at the empty valley, their faces filled with horror!

A meticulously planned, month-long deadly trap,

A cup of incurable poison, a Yin-Yang Microcosm Array, a flying dagger that slays immortals, and a group of Great Luo Golden Immortals surrounding him—in the end, not only did they fail to kill Jiu Feng, but they also personally handed over the Witch-Slaying Sword, which was supposed to be the key to suppressing the Witch Clan, to Jiu Feng!

A spectacular ambush has become the biggest joke in the primordial world. It is truly a case of the Chan Sect's brilliant plan to secure the world losing both its wife and its army!

Countless array patterns surged into the sky, sealing off the four directions of heaven and earth, and the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array was instantly fully activated!

The formation strangled the energy, sealed the bloodline, and suppressed the primordial spirit, completely locking down the entire void. Escape techniques failed, space collapsed, and there was no way to retreat!
