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

"Let's not talk about that, they'll be here soon."

"Some things are better left to you and me to know."

"Um."

Qin Tian responded softly and stood with Taiqing Laozi atop Shouyang Mountain, quietly observing the guests from all directions.

Hou Yi was the first to arrive.

Unlike before, when Hou Yi was only powerful among the great witches, now Hou Yi has already stepped one foot into the threshold. He only needs to step in with the other foot, stand firm, and he will become the ancestral witch.

But Qin Tian felt that it would be extremely difficult for Hou Yi to take that step.

Twelve Ancestral Witches, twelve Great Daos.

Hou Yi, having absorbed the essence and blood of the twelve ancestral witches, possessed great power, but it was too chaotic and lacked a systematic approach.

Let alone glimpse the sacred realm, even perfectly unleashing one's own power is difficult.

"Hou Yi of the Human Witch Tribe pays respects to the Great Venerable Qin Tian and the Sage Taiqing."

Upon hearing Hou Yi's self-reference and the order in which he addressed people, Qin Tian couldn't help but smile.

Not bad, this young man knows how to handle things.

With a thought, Qin Tian pointed a finger, striking Hou Yi's forehead between his eyebrows.

"Hou Yi, I am in a good mood today, so I will bestow upon you a great opportunity. Please comprehend it well."

Hou Yi suddenly felt a darkness before his eyes, and when he woke up again, he found himself transformed into an ordinary human.

He had no cultivation, no magical power, and his physique was not strong; all he held were ordinary swords and bows.

Despite this, he conquered the entire mountain forest and became famous throughout the region.

This puzzled Hou Yi greatly, so he began to carefully consider it.

Three days later, Hou Yi opened his eyes, and a divine light shot out from them.

What an amazing method! It can actually give a mortal the strength of a minor witch.

With the power of the mind, unite the whole body; wherever the arrow points, the heart follows, nothing is invincible, nothing is unbreakable.

Thinking of this, Hou Yi shuddered; he thought of his own body.

Isn't this the Tao he has been searching for but has been unable to comprehend?

With a single thought, Hou Yi himself instantly awoke.

Without a word, grasping that insight, Hou Yi swiftly drew his bow and nocked an arrow, using the power of his mind to mobilize the qi and blood within his body, and the power of the laws.

At this moment, Hou Yi miraculously discovered that the power of the law, which had previously been obedient but uncooperative, was now like a little chick, going wherever he was told and providing as much as he wanted.

Overjoyed, Hou Yi became a little carried away and wanted to mobilize the power of all twelve laws at once and shoot them out with a single arrow.

Unexpectedly, he took too big a step, and a sharp pain shot through his body, striking deep into his soul, making Hou Yi almost unable to hold the bow.

Seeing Hou Yi in this state, Qin Tian felt as if he had dug his own grave.

If I had known this kid would be so reckless, I should have given it to him later.

Now look what's happened; I've become someone else's babysitter for no reason.

Qin Tian shook his head helplessly and gently brushed Hou Yi's head with his hand.

Hou Yi suddenly felt a strange power flowing through his body, unifying his vital energy.

The twelve conflicting laws that had been troubling him were neutralized by the power of Qi and blood, and they cooperated sincerely, twisting into a single rope.

"Fire from the northwest!"

Upon hearing Qin Tian's words, Hou Yi did not hesitate at all. He changed direction and shot straight toward the northwest.

Taiqing Laozi saw a dazzling arrow pierce through the void, hurtling rapidly toward the northwest.

Sensing the approaching visitors from the northwest, Taiqing Laozi chuckled to himself.

"Fellow Daoist Qin Tian, ​​you certainly have a distinct personality."

"Aren't you afraid that this arrow might kill them?"

"It's not that bad." Qin Tian shook his head: "Fellow Daoist, you underestimate them."

"Their strength is by no means weak, especially that of Jieyin."

Taiqing Laozi's expression changed.

He could sense that the arrow Hou Yi had just shot possessed the power of a saint.

But Qin Tian said he was fine, which made him extend his divine sense to investigate.

Although Hou Yi's arrows traveled through the void, their immense power was completely undisguised.

Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti's hearts pounded wildly; under this power, they felt the fear of death.

We cannot defeat them by force; we must outsmart them.

After exchanging a glance, the two brothers, who were perfectly in sync, flew back to the left and right respectively.

Unexpectedly, Hou Yi's arrow locked onto them.

No matter how they ran or changed their positions, the arrows kept flying towards them.

"Damn it, I hope I don't find out who's behind this, or I'll make them regret ever being born."

Zhunti angrily cursed, then took out the Azure Lotus Banner and waved it slightly.

An invisible field appeared in this world.

Under this field, the vegetation on the ground grew rapidly, each tree becoming enormous, like a towering tree reaching for the sky.

However, to no avail; these mutated, gigantic plants failed to stop the divine arrow in the slightest.

Seeing this, both Jieyin and Zhunti showed a helpless expression.

They knew that someone had to make a sacrifice.

Otherwise, this arrow would be impossible to pass through; there would be no way to dodge it or avoid it.

Zhunti made the choice first, revealing his true form: the Bodhi Tree, a tree with innate golden spiritual root.

This was the first time he had extended his roots deep into the earth since he took human form.

"Senior brother, hide behind me."

With a loud roar, Zhunti activated the metal element within his body, instantly transforming his body into an enormous form.

However, Jieyin did not listen to Zhunti's words at all.

He knew that with his junior brother's skill, if he took this blow head-on, he would be badly injured, if not killed.

With a soft sigh, Jieyin offered up one of his few innate spiritual treasures, the Jieyin Banner.

Then, the Great Dao of Cause and Effect was pushed to its limit, and dozens of flowers of cause and effect bloomed in the void, growing on the Banner of Guidance.

Causal grafting, transfer!

With a low roar, Jieyin controlled the treasure banner and charged towards the divine arrow.

With a deafening roar, the laws of nature were thrown into chaos, and even the heavens and earth were shattered, revealing a vast void.

Taiqing Laozi keenly noticed that at the moment the arrows and the treasure banner clashed, dozens of causal flowers bloomed simultaneously, desperately absorbing the energy within and sending it underground.

However, this process of introduction did not come without a price.

After the attack, he was shaken by the aftershocks and, pale-faced, withdrew the Guiding Banner.

Looking at the gaping hole in the banner, Jieyin felt a pang of heartache.

At this moment, Zhunti reverted to his original form and transformed back into human form. Seeing his senior brother pale-faced and trembling in the sky as if about to fall, he thought he had suffered a serious injury.

She quickly helped him up and said, "Senior brother, don't push yourself."

"Wait, when I meet the Sage Taiqing, I will bite the bullet and ask for a golden pill for you."

"Don't worry, the Supreme Saint's alchemy is unparalleled in the world, he can definitely save you."

"Save me? What do you mean, save me?" Jieyin felt a warmth in his heart, but couldn't help rolling his eyes. "I'm just overexerting my magic power, I'm not really injured."

Zhunti didn't believe it. He looked around and only felt relieved after finding that Jieyin was indeed unharmed.

"Thank goodness, senior brother, you're alright."

"After listening to Fellow Daoist Taiqing's sermon, we can begin preparations for becoming a saint and establishing a religion."
