Primordial Era: The Witch Clan's Dog-Headed Strategist

Pan Xuan then surveyed the terrain of Shouyang Mountain, and after a moment pointed to an open area halfway up the mountain:

"There, the spiritual energy is most abundant, and the earth's veins are most stable."

You may build a cave dwelling there as the abode of the Shouyang Mountain deity.

If other witches come to this mountain to cultivate in the future, they will have a place to stay.

Furthermore, my Wu tribe will send some ordinary members to assist you in managing the affairs of Shouyang Mountain in the future.

The sun replied, "As you command."

Pan Xuan said no more, and then explained a few more details about the rules of the divine path.

He set up a communication barrier on Shouyang Mountain, connected to the Star Seal, to ensure that the sun could call for help in time when it encountered a threat that it could not handle alone.

After doing all this, he used his righteous spirit and the Primordial Measuring Ruler to survey the area around Shouyang Mountain.

Only after confirming that the faint aura of the Kongtong Seal deep within the mountain was still slowly developing without being disturbed did he nod in satisfaction.

"You shall diligently cultivate yourself here and secure your position as the mountain god."

Pan Xuan said to the sun, "I'll go back to Buzhou Mountain first."

When the twelve ancestral witches return, I will summon all the new mountain gods and formally establish the operating rules of the divine system.

The sun knelt on one knee: "Respectfully bidding farewell to the Father God."

Pan Xuan waved his sleeve, transforming into a streak of purple-gold light that rose from the summit of Shouyang Mountain and flew towards Buzhou Mountain.

His trip not only added a crucial eastern hub to the divine system, but also planted a seed for humanity's future plans.

The Kongtong Seal is still in its gestation stage, and the human race has not yet been born, but the seed has been planted, waiting for it to take root and sprout in the future.

The sun, residing on Shouyang Mountain, is the guardian of this seed.

While Pan Xuan and Taiyang were heading to Shouyang Mountain, the Twelve Ancestral Witches also led their respective Great Witches to famous mountains and rivers throughout the prehistoric world.

Houtu, accompanied by Jiufeng and two great shamans from the Earth Tribe, headed eastward.

Her goal was clear: Wuyishan.

Pan Xuan had visited this mountain before, where he took the Treasure-Losing Coin and the Enlightenment Tea Tree. He already knew the geomantic veins and spiritual energy distribution of Wuyi Mountain like the back of his hand.

Although Wuyi Mountain is not as large as the Five Sacred Mountains, it is rich in spiritual energy, has stable earth veins, and contains many undiscovered spiritual creatures, making it a rare blessed land.

Jiufeng is one of Houtu's most capable great witches, with a peak Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation level. She has a calm personality and a profound understanding of the laws of earth.

She stood before Mount Wuyi, sensing the flow of spiritual energy within the mountain, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes:

"Lady Houtu, the spiritual energy of this mountain is truly unique. Unlike the imposing Buzhou Mountain, this place possesses a more vibrant and lively quality."

Houtu said softly, "Wuyi Mountain belongs to the earth element, but the earth contains gold, and there are many gold and stone veins in the mountain."

Your earth element has a connection with metal and stone, which is perfect for this mountain.

Go forth and sense the mountain spirit with your laws.

Remember Pan Xuan's words: the mountain god doesn't seize power by force, but rather resonates with the mountain spirit. If the mountain spirit acknowledges you, you are the mountain god; if it doesn't, do not force it.

Jiufeng nodded solemnly and stepped into Wuyi Mountain.

She sat cross-legged on the mountaintop, her body glowing with an earthy yellow light, the power of the Earth Law seeping into the mountain like a trickle.

The spirit of Wuyi Mountain is more reserved than that of Shouyang Mountain. It did not respond immediately, but rather, like a cautious host, carefully examined this unfamiliar visitor.

Jiufeng was not in a hurry.

She kept in mind the teachings of Pan Xuan and Hou Tu that the way of the mountain god lies in conforming rather than forcibly seizing.

She simply released her earth elemental aura, allowing the spirit of Wuyi Mountain to feel her sincerity.

Several days later, the mountain spirit finally responded.

The mountain trembled slightly, and an earthy yellow light rose from the summit, merging with the power of the Nine Phoenixes' laws.

A new mountain god mark appeared between Jiufeng's eyebrows. It was the shape of Wuyi Mountain, with a faint golden light shimmering between the mountain patterns.

She successfully gained the approval of the spirit of Wuyi Mountain and became the mountain god of Wuyi Mountain.

With the blessing of the mountain god's authority, her cultivation level was showing signs of breaking through to the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Meanwhile, the other ancestral witches, along with their respective great witches, also reaped their own rewards.

Zhu Rong led several high shamans from the fire tribe to a volcanic cluster in the south, where there were several active volcanoes and the fire elemental energy was extremely abundant.

One of his subordinates, a Grand Shaman in the late stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, successfully resonated with the largest of the volcanoes.

He became the volcano god, which is the prototype of the fire god system. Although he is currently under the category of mountain god, he can become an independent fire god system in the future.

Gonggong led the great shaman of the water tribe to the source of a great river, which was a snow mountain rich in water-attribute spiritual energy.

One of his high priests successfully became the mountain god of Jiangyuan, in charge of the source of the entire river.

Xuanming found an ancient, unmelting ice mountain in the frigid north, and one of her subordinates, a Grand Ice Wizard of the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, successfully became the mountain god of the ice mountain.

In an ancient primeval forest in the East, Jumang found a vibrant sacred mountain for a great wood shaman.

Ru Shou, in a mountain range in the west where a metal vein converged, made a great shaman of gold become a mountain god.

In a mountain range perpetually shrouded in thunderclouds, Qiangliang and Xizi each appointed a great shaman as the mountain god of Thunder Mountain and Electric Mountain, respectively.

Shebishi found a strange mountain shrouded in poisonous mist in a valley filled with poisonous miasma, and one of his poison shamans became the mountain god of the poisonous mountain.

On a mountain ridge where the wind blows all year round, Tianwu made a great wind shaman become the mountain god of Fengshan.

These great shamans all possessed cultivation levels above the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and their attributes matched those of their respective mountain ranges, making it easy for them to assume the role of mountain gods.

After successfully gaining the approval of the mountain spirit, each of them had their own mountain god mark appear between their eyebrows, and their cultivation levels improved to varying degrees under the blessing of the mountain god's authority.

But the most important are the Five Sacred Mountains.

After Jiufeng became the mountain god of Wuyi Mountain, Houtu went to Mount Tai in the east alone.

Mount Tai is the foremost of the Five Sacred Mountains, the guardian of the East, and the linchpin of the earth's veins. The laws and authority contained in the position of its mountain god are far beyond those of ordinary sacred mountains.

Houtu is the ancestral witch of the earth, wielding the power of the earth, and is most compatible with the earth attribute of Mount Tai.

She sat cross-legged atop Mount Tai, radiating a thick, earthy yellow light.

She felt a strong resonance with the spirit of Mount Tai.

That resonance was several times stronger than the resonance between Jiufeng and Wuyi Mountain.

After all, Houtu is a Primordial Golden Immortal, the master of the Earth Law deity, and her primordial power is supreme for any earth-attribute mountain range.

Within a few hours, Houtu had successfully gained the approval of Mount Tai.

The mark of the Taishan Mountain God appeared on her forehead.

That is the shape of Mount Tai, the most revered of the Five Sacred Mountains, with the heavy radiance of the earth's power flowing between its mountain patterns.

She left a projection of a deity of law on the summit of Mount Tai, as a symbol of the mountain god and a safeguard for Mount Tai.

Although this projection is not as powerful as the original body, it is still a clone at the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal, enough to deal with any enemy who dares to challenge the majesty of the God of Mount Tai.

Zhu Rong resides on Mount Heng in the south, where his laws of fire complement the red imperial aura of Mount Heng.

Although Mount Heng is not a volcano, it contains a fiery power of earth fire, which resonates strongly with the Nanming Fire of Zhu Rong.

He successfully became the mountain god of Hengshan, and also left behind a projection of a law deity to guard it.
