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

In this vast and boundless chaos, besides Hongjun's newly forged divine realm, there are several ancient and powerful divine realms scattered around.

In each divine realm, there dwells a ruler from another realm who has existed since the beginning of chaos.

Each of them governs a particular law, has their own followers, and their own world.

In this boundless chaos, they are both lonely kings and neighboring states wary of each other.

Now, these rulers who once ruled independently and did not interact with each other are now in power.

But because of a common threat, they sat down at the same negotiating table for the first time.

It was an ancient temple located deep within the chaos, formed from unknown chaotic power, majestic and mysterious.

Inside the temple, several figures sat in rows, each exuding an aura powerful enough to make the chaos tremble.

Seated to the right of the head of the table is a deity clad in a thunder robe and wielding a golden lightning spear.

His face was majestic, his eyes were piercing, and his body was surrounded by endless lightning and clouds, as if he would unleash divine punishment at the slightest provocation.

He was Zeus, the ruler of the Olympian pantheon.

What he wields is the way of thunder and sky, order and monarchy.

Sitting opposite Zeus was a being surrounded by pure white holy light.

His figure was hazy, hidden in the light, with only a pair of deep and compassionate eyes visible.

The holy light seemed to contain the power of creation and boundless majesty, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at it.

He is the sovereign God who holds the power of light and creation, redemption and judgment.

His words are law; his gaze is judgment.

Further to the side stood an elderly man with one eye, dressed in a gray-blue battle robe.

Two ravens perched on his shoulders, a long spear in his hand, and ancient, death-infused runes swirling around him.

He is Odin, the ruler of the Norse pantheon.

What he wields is the way of wisdom and war, destiny and sacrifice.

The last one is a deity with four heads and four arms, seated on a lotus flower.

His face was compassionate and solemn, each of his four arms held a ritual implement, and his body was surrounded by the aura of birth, death, and reincarnation.

He is Brahma, the ruler of the Hindu pantheon. He governs the cycle of creation and destruction, birth and death.

He gently closed his eyes, as if in eternal meditation, looking down upon all living beings.

These four are the four most powerful rulers in this chaos, apart from Hongjun and Yangmei.

At this moment, they have gathered here to discuss an important matter.

"Gentlemen," Zeus spoke first, his voice echoing through the temple like muffled thunder.

"Hongjun, who came from the primordial era, has already occupied the divine domain of the main god of the Heavenly Court, rebuilt the Chaos Divine Domain, and gone into seclusion to comprehend it."

He possesses profound cultivation and also wields the Jade Disc of Creation. If we allow him to grow powerful in this chaos, we fear that we will be devoured by him sooner or later.

"The reason I've invited you all here today is to discuss how to deal with this fiend."

From within the hazy figure of God, a majestic voice resounded:

"Hongjun is the master of the primordial Heavenly Dao, and his scheming is so profound that it is unparalleled in the world."

He can manipulate events in the primordial chaos, but once he establishes himself in the primordial chaos, he will surely become a major threat. This fiend must be eliminated.

Odin slowly stroked the ancient spear, a cold glint flashing in his single eye:

"I observe that Hongjun is by no means a benevolent being."

By occupying the divine domain of the supreme god Ame no Minaka, he essentially planted a great flag in the chaos.

Today he occupies one domain, tomorrow he will occupy two or three domains, and one day he will swallow up all our divine domains.

Rather than sit and wait to be killed, it's better to strike first!

Brahma slowly opened his eyes, and a profound light emanated from all four heads:

"We have all sensed Hongjun's power. However, if we join forces, we may be able to suppress him. Gentlemen, would you be willing to form an alliance with us to eliminate this fiend?"

Four pairs of eyes met in the temple. After a long while, all four nodded slowly.

"Form an alliance," Zeus said.

"Form an alliance," God said.

"Form an alliance," Odin said.

"Form an alliance," Brahma said.

In the midst of chaos, an invisible covenant was thus forged.

For the first time, the four ancient rulers stood on the same side for the same goal.

They made no announcement and did not bring any entourage.

The four rulers are all the strongest beings in the world. When they join forces, even the boundless chaos has to make way for them.

They transformed into four streaks of light, soaring into the sky from the temple and flying straight towards the Hongjun Divine Realm.

Along the way, chaotic energy surged, yet it could not get close to them at all.

Zeus's thunderbolts exploded around him, God's holy light illuminated the path ahead, Odin's spear cleaved the void, and Brahma's lotus lifted up the cycle of rebirth.

The four rulers, each displaying their unique abilities, surged forward like four unstoppable torrents, directly approaching Hongjun's newly forged divine realm.

Their purpose in going there was solely to suppress Hongjun and eliminate this major threat in the chaos!

The Hongjun Divine Realm is located deep within the chaos.

It was a palace complex recast from the Jade Disc of Creation, magnificent and awe-inspiring.

Within the divine realm, the newly born world is beginning to take shape, with mountains, rivers, plants, and spirit beasts all slowly growing.

That "sun," rekindled from the remnants of the primordial chaos, hung high above the divine realm, casting down a warm and majestic light.

Hongjun stood atop the divine realm, hands behind his back, gazing silently at the boundless chaos.

He went into seclusion to study and comprehend, intending to completely refine the divine realm into his own domain.

However, in the past few days, he had a vague feeling that a strong sense of crisis was approaching him from the depths of chaos.

"They've arrived." Hongjun slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, looking into the depths of chaos.

Before the words were finished, the chaotic energy suddenly parted. Four incomparably powerful auras surged into the sky above the divine realm like a tidal wave.

That was the aura of four ancient rulers: the thunder of Zeus, the holy light of God, the death of Odin, and the cycle of Brahma.

The four auras intertwined, like dark clouds pressing down, enveloping the entire divine realm.

Hongjun's divine sense instantly collided with the four auras.

His expression darkened slightly, but he showed no sign of panic. Instead, he let out a cold laugh:

"They've arrived as expected. These four have come even faster than I anticipated."

A moment later, four figures slowly emerged from the chaos.

Zeus holds a thunderbolt spear, God is surrounded by holy light, Odin props his spear on the ground, and Brahma sits on a lotus.

The four rulers stood side by side in the sky above the divine realm, their gazes all fixed on Hongjun, who stood at the pinnacle of the divine realm.

Zeus spoke first, his voice booming like thunder:

"Hongjun! You came from the primordial world uninvited, occupying my chaotic land and rebuilding the divine realm. What is the reason for this?!"

Hongjun stood with his hands behind his back, neither humble nor arrogant: "Chaos has no master, the four seas are my home. I, Hongjun, have established a divine realm, what does that have to do with you?"

Odin coldly replied, "What does it have to do with you? You occupied the divine domain of the chief god of the heavens, which means you planted a banner in this chaos."

Today you occupy one region, tomorrow you'll occupy two, three. If we allow you to grow stronger, will we still have a place to stand in this chaos?!

The voice of God, majestic and merciful: "Hongjun, you wield the Jade Tablet of Creation and your schemes are profound. How can we allow you to lay a trap in this chaos?"

"If you disperse from the Divine Realm and retreat to the Primordial World today, we may still show you leniency; but if you remain obstinate, don't blame us for joining forces and being ruthless!"

Brahma slowly said, "Hongjun, we originally did not wish to interfere in your grievances with the Primordial World. However, since you have entered Chaos, you must abide by the rules of Chaos. Chaos cannot tolerate any one power dominating."

The four rulers, one after another, spoke with overwhelming force, surrounding Hongjun completely.

That boundless pressure, like four great mountains, pressed down on Hongjun at the top of the divine realm, as if to crush him.

However, Hongjun remained standing with his hands behind his back, his expression calm.

He slowly glanced at the four rulers, and suddenly let out a soft laugh.

"Heh... What a righteous and awe-inspiring speech."

Hongjun said calmly, "You four claim to be eliminating harm for Chaos, which sounds very noble."

But deep down, aren't you all afraid that I, Hongjun, will become too powerful, seize your territory, and divide your fortune?

All this talk of chaotic rules and hidden dangers boils down to nothing more than self-interest.
