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

Both Di Jun and Nuwa fell into a long silence.

They finally understood how important Pangu's protection was to the primordial world.

It is not a dispensable thin film.

Rather, it was the last protective talisman left by the Great God Pangu for the primordial world, the fundamental reliance upon which the primordial world was able to stand safely for countless eras amidst chaos.

With it there, the primordial world is as solid as a rock.

Once it disappears, the primordial world will be exposed to the blades of the chaotic gods, with nothing left to hide from the world.

"No wonder Hongjun created those demonic creatures to attack first."

A glint of light flashed in Di Jun's eyes.

"Those demonic creatures were probably created by Hongjun and those other Chaos Rulers specifically to wear down the cannon fodder protected by Pangu!"

"good."

Pan Xuan nodded, "They dare not come in person because they fear the backlash from this protection."

If they force their way in, even a Saint Realm ruler would be severely injured by the combined forces of those who protect and protect the Primordial World.

That's why they created those cannon fodder monsters to gradually wear down this protective barrier, and then unleash their full power when it was exhausted.

Nuwa said in a deep voice, "Then we cannot stand idly by and watch those demons erode this protection!"

"Of course not." Pan Xuan's gaze was stern.

"Pangu's protection is the foundation of the primordial world. As long as we protect this protection, the chaotic gods will not be able to set foot in the primordial world."

Our immediate plan is to deploy defenses outside that protective barrier, intercepting those demons and preventing this war from reaching the ends of the earth!

Di Jun's gaze was deep and he slowly said, "If we venture deep into the Chaos to meet the enemy, I'm afraid we'll be playing right into the hands of Hongjun and those other rulers."

They dispatched these five demonic creatures, ostensibly to weaken Pangu's protection, but who can guarantee they won't lie in ambush deep within the chaos, waiting for us to stray far from the primordial defenses and walk right into their trap?

"That's exactly right." Nuwa nodded.

"The depths of chaos are their home ground."

If we rashly venture deep into this place, straying far from the foundation of the primordial world, even those who reach the realm of sages will find it difficult to guarantee their safety.

Pan Xuan stood between the two men, his gaze deep and unwavering: "Hongjun is a man who is most adept at scheming."

He created these five demonic creatures, but it's not necessarily true that he genuinely wanted to use them to conquer the primordial world.

More likely, they want to force us to leave the primordial wilderness and expose us to chaos, so that those few rulers can surround and annihilate us.

If we let him lead us by the nose, then we've fallen into his trap.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Di Jun asked.

Pan Xuan said, "We will stand guard outside Pangu's protection and fight on the edge of the abyss."

"Outside of protection?" Nuwa pondered.

"good."

Pan Xuan raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the outer edge of the primordial world, where Pangu was protecting it.

"The target of those five demons is Pangu's protection."

If we allow them to gnaw at our shelter, even if we can remedy the situation afterward, the shelter will already be damaged.

Therefore, they must never be allowed to touch that protection in the slightest.

The three of us then stood guard outside that shelter, intercepting all five demonic creatures outside of it!

A glint flashed in Di Jun's eyes: "Good idea! Beyond that protection lies the boundary of our primordial world."

We stand guard outside the protective barrier, with chaotic demons in front of us and Pangu protecting us behind us. We have a clear direction for advancing and retreating, and can attack and defend freely.

"If Hongjun and the other rulers really dare to ambush us, we can retreat to their protection at any time, and they won't gain the slightest advantage!"

"That's exactly right."

Pan Xuandao said, "We will not venture deep into the chaos, lest we fall into its ambush."

However, they would never allow those five demons to take even half a step closer to their protection.

If they dare to come, let them all perish outside this shelter!

Nuwa slowly nodded: "Very well. Then we will do as you say, and stand guard outside your protection to fight those five demons!"

The three sages then made their decision.

They did not venture deep into the chaos, but emerged from the primordial wilderness, standing outside the protection of Pangu, setting up layers of defenses, and preparing for battle.

Pan Xuan stood on the side outside the protection, his body surrounded by divine energy, and the authority of countless gods and deities converged on him.

Nuwa stood on the other side, her body brimming with the vitality of creation, as if she were holding up the life force of the entire primordial world.

Di Jun stood in the center, surrounded by the power of stars, echoing the stars in the sky behind him.

The three sages stood side by side before Pangu's protection, like three majestic mountains, firmly guarding that protection behind them.

An epic battle is about to unfold outside the protection of the primordial wilderness.

Deep within the chaos, the five malevolent auras drew ever closer.

They traversed the boundless chaos and finally arrived at the outskirts of the primordial wilderness.

Before that, Pangu protected them.

The protection of Pangu, formless and intangible, seemed like an insurmountable chasm, stretching between chaos and the primordial world.

The five demons, sensing the presence of protection, all stopped in their tracks.

Then, the first demon appeared.

The enormous, dark green monster with an octopus head, a human body, and tattered bat wings on its back let out a mournful roar first.

Its countless tentacles thrashed wildly, then suddenly crashed into the protection of Pangu!

However, before it could even touch the protection, a vast figure blocked its way.

"This road is blocked."

Di Jun stood before the monster, his body surrounded by the power of stars, and coldly said,

"You demons, daring to covet the protection of my primordial world, first ask me if I agree to let you have the power of the celestial stars in my hand!"

The dark green monster seemed unable to understand human speech.

It let out a furious roar, and countless tentacles lashed out at Di Jun!

Di Jun snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved it, and the power of the Zhou Tian Stars transformed into a dazzling starlight barrier, which stretched across his front.

The countless tentacles lashed at the starlight barrier, stirring up a sky full of starlight, but they could not break through the barrier even slightly.

At the same time, the enormous, cloud-like mass of flesh and blood, Shub Nicholas, slowly approached the shelter.

Its countless enormous mouths opened and closed incessantly, constantly spitting out deformed monsters.

The monsters surged toward the shelter like a tidal wave, frantically devouring and tearing apart everything in their path.

However, a gentle figure slowly emerged from before that shelter.

Nuwa stood before the endless array of deformed monsters, her body brimming with the life force of creation, and softly said:

"You take creation as your foundation, yet you create nothing but deformed things. You should step down."

She raised her hand, and there was that vitality of creation.

It transformed into a warm, gentle light, showering down upon the surging, deformed monsters.

Wherever the light passed, those deformed monsters slowly stopped, melted away, and turned into wisps of green smoke, dissipating into the chaos.

Yog Sothos, meanwhile, silently merged into the various spatial and temporal rifts near the shelter.

It seemed to be searching for something, looking for the weakest crack in that shelter, preparing to quietly slip in from there.

However, a handsome and upright figure stood before that shelter and slowly closed his eyes.

Pan Xuan stood outside the shelter, his divine energy flowing around him like an invisible net, covering all the gaps in space and time around the shelter.

He spoke slowly: "You control time and space, I control all realms. Those cracks where you hide are also within my divine realm. Want to slip into my protection? You'll have to get past me first."

Nyarlathotep transformed into countless indistinct figures, lingering outside the sanctuary.

It didn't make a move, but simply observed quietly, as if searching for a flaw in the protection, or as if waiting for something.

Hastur, the figure in yellow, stood quietly in the chaos, as if merely watching the protection from afar.

But as it gazed upon it, the chaotic energy surrounding the shelter gradually began to twist and boil, as if an invisible fear and pressure were constantly eroding the shelter.

Five demons, each displaying their unique abilities, surged madly toward the shelter from different directions.

However, the three sages stood like three towering barriers, firmly blocking the way for protection.
