The people of the primordial era ruled the heavens and earth.

Within the silvery-white divine light, in the core space, Qin Tian, ​​Hou Tu, and Yang Mei stood to one side, constantly conversing.

Every now and then, bursts of laughter would erupt, making it seem like a reunion of long-lost friends, with endless things to talk about and getting more and more energetic as they drank.

What caused this scene was none other than Hongjun's few words, which carried a hint of threat.

All of this was thanks to Yang Mei's telepathic message to Qin Tian and Houtu when she made her move, telling them not to resist.

Qin Tian and Hou Tu indeed offered no resistance.

Otherwise, even if Yang Mei had deliberately let things slide, she would never have been able to fool Hongjun.

"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Yang Mei. I will never forget your kindness in letting me go today."

People always part ways eventually. After discussing the secrets of the world, Qin Tian cupped his hands and said.

"Haha," Yang Mei chuckled lightly, "No need to thank me. If you hadn't trusted me, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"One thing at a time. Fellow Daoist's actions are the root of everything. My cooperation is nothing."

"If you ever encounter trouble in the chaos, you may return to the primordial world to find me, and I will do my utmost to help you."

"Um."

Yang Mei nodded, gave Qin Tian a deep look, and then tore through space, heading into the depths of chaos.

"Let's go too!"

"I wonder how far the Lich War has progressed."

"Okay." Houtu nodded lightly, helped Qin Tian up, and with her unseen control over the underground passage, teleported directly back to the underworld.

"puff!"

After returning to the underworld, Qin Tian could no longer control his injuries and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His body was cracked open in countless places, and the wounds were filled with sharp energy.

In an instant, the ground was covered in blood.

Seeing this, Houtu was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes, and she immediately wanted to use her magic to heal Qin Tian's injuries.

But it was completely useless; instead, it aggravated Qin Tian's injuries.

"Qin Tian, ​​what's wrong with you?"

"What can I do to save you?"

"Send me to the Land of Reincarnation, and use the Six Paths of Reincarnation to suppress my injuries."

"My injury is a wound inflicted by the Heavenly Dao. That old thief Hongjun's attack was too powerful; my physical body has been completely destroyed."

"The only way to recover now is to undergo reincarnation, gather the fortune of humanity, and start over."

"At that time, I will merge with my old body again, combining the fruits of the two lifetimes into one, and I will surely be able to make a breakthrough."

"These wounds inflicted by the Heavenly Dao will no longer be my weakness, but will instead become my weapon to counterattack the Heavenly Dao."

Despite his injuries, Qin Tian finished speaking, then coughed up a mouthful of blood, splattering it all over Hou Tu.

Houtu dared not ask any more questions and hurriedly led Qin Tian to the Land of Reincarnation, where she used the Six Paths of Reincarnation to suppress him.

After being suppressed by the power of the underground passage, Qin Tian's injuries stopped worsening.

After spending some more time, and with the help of various healing techniques from the world of "Covering the Sky," such as the "Secret of the Word of the One" and the "Phoenix Tribulation Undying Technique," Qin Tian successfully concealed his injuries.

He can't afford to get into trouble right now.

With the war between the Lich Kings still unresolved and humanity not yet the true protagonists of the world, his old body must continue to shine.

Seeing that Qin Tian appeared to be completely healed, Houtu felt some relief. She waved her hand, conjuring a cloud mirror that depicted the scene of the war between the Lich King and the Demon King, and asked:

"What do we do next?"

"Will you be reincarnated after the Lich War ends?"

"Let's not rush into reincarnation," Qin Tian shook his head. "Let's get our hands on the Heavenly Court first."

"This time, I burned all of humanity's destiny to summon a projection of the future human timeline."

"The years to come will certainly be difficult for humanity. We must stabilize the situation before reincarnating."

Houtu nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she said, "In that case, I'll invite Fellow Daoist Styx as well."

"We'll begin our operation after the Lich War ends."

"it is good."

Qin Tian nodded in agreement and turned his gaze to the cloud mirror.

The world had been transformed into a battlefield, with hardly any raised land to be found. All the hilltops had been blasted into depressions and craters by the aftershocks of the battle between the two races.

Slaughter was taking place everywhere, and the malevolent energy in the world had almost materialized, attaching itself to every warrior of the Lich and Demon races.

Reflected in the blood, it looked utterly eerie.

But no one realized anything was wrong; it was as if everything had always been this way.

The world turned into a giant meat grinder, where countless people of the Lich and Demon races died every moment, every second.

Overall, however, the demon race held the advantage.

The number of Wu tribe members dwindled with each battle, while the number of Yao tribe members, being large enough, meant that for every one Yao tribe member died, a new one would join them.

Fortunately, the individual combat strength of the Wu tribe was very strong, which stabilized the situation relatively well; otherwise, it would have collapsed and completely disintegrated long ago.

But this only applies to ordinary members of the Lich and Demon races.

On the highest level of the battlefield, the Ancestral Witches were almost completely dominating the Demon Race.

Although Taiyi possessed the power of a sage, he was targeted by the ancestral witches during the battles between the Zhou Tian Star Array and the Du Tian Divine Fiend Array.

In addition, Yuanshi Tianzun and Zhunti also made two secret attacks, so their strength was reduced to less than one-tenth.

They barely managed to hold off Qiangliang and Xuanming.

Di Jun wasn't much better, in fact, he was even worse.

Kunpeng and Fuxi are also like this.

It can be said that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this war would have ended in victory for the Wu tribe.

But how could the world be without variables?

Although the malevolent aura briefly clouded the minds of the ancestral witches and high-ranking members of the demon race.

But as they fought, their murderous aura gradually dissipated.

Soon, Di Jun and Fu Xi realized the current situation.

This made them extremely anxious.

Di Jun knew very well that if the fighting continued like this, even if the demon race didn't lose all its elites, it would definitely not be in a good position.

He saw his younger brother Taiyi being besieged by Xuanming and Qiangliang, and was in grave danger.

Di Jun made a resolute decision.

A raging fire erupted from his body, transforming him into a great sun, which, along with Ru Shou who was fighting against him, rushed towards Taiyi.

Xuanming and Qiangliang were completely unaware of anything amiss, still believing that Dijun wanted to join forces with Taiyi to increase their combat power and turn the tide of the battle by leveraging the brothers' tacit understanding.

After exchanging a glance, they simultaneously unleashed a powerful attack, repelling Taiyi, and then charged towards Dijun.

Their idea was simple.

You, Di Jun, wanted to gather your brothers together, right? Well then, I'll gather my brothers too, and we'll take you down first.

Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared in Di Jun's eyes, and the essence blood in his body burned even more fiercely, and the true fire of the sun became even more intense.

Xuanming and Qiangliang still didn't realize something was wrong, but Ru Shou, who was being coerced and suppressed by Dijun, sensed something amiss.

So he quickly shouted, "Retreat! Don't come any closer! This Di Jun is trying to fight to the death!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanming and Qiangliang were taken aback and stopped in their tracks. Seeing that the True Fire of the Sun on Dijun's body was indeed a bit abnormal, they decided not to rush forward again.

Instead, they used the power of the laws within their bodies to condense two divine spears and shot them at Di Jun.
