The Holy Path of the Primordial World Shines Brightly

Chapter 19 Ideal: Transforming the Primordial Wilderness!

Amidst winds and rains from all directions, the ancestral shaman faced hardship.

They also have their own difficulties and are not as carefree as outsiders imagine.

The primordial world is too vast; who knows where a great master might be hiding... This is not a place where one can roam freely.

Even a powerful ancestral witch could only trek with difficulty, making cautious moves, forming alliances with many top experts, and carving out a path in a situation where they were surrounded on all sides.

Feng Xi fell silent.

His eyes flickered, and after a long silence, he suddenly spoke, "Actually, isn't there a simpler way to solve this problem...?"

"As long as the Ancestral Witches don't firmly establish their stance and create the Witch Clan to fight the Demon Clan to the death, overturning the small empires of many powerful figures; instead, they integrate into the mainstream voice of this era. With your strength, gentlemen, you will definitely be able to thrive and live a fulfilling life, right?"

All conflicts are based on the premise of the antagonism between the witch clan and the demon clan.

So, what if the Witch Clan didn't exist?

Given the unparalleled supernatural powers of the Ancestral Witches, who were among the most powerful beings in the primordial world, if they chose to join the Demon Clan... could the Demon Clan refuse?

I couldn't refuse.

Once inside, they'll be given important positions. With the Twelve Ancestral Witches joining forces, even Di Jun and Tai Yi's positions might not be very secure.

As for whether the Ancestral Witches had different cultivation styles from the mainstream of the prehistoric world?

What's this!

These days, some people cultivate the path of immortality, some the path of Buddhism, some the path of demons, some the path of ghosts... There are thousands of schools of thought in the primordial world, so what's wrong with a few more people cultivating witchcraft?

All living beings don't really care about good versus evil factions; they only consider strength!

"Wouldn't the benefits of following the demon race's path be no less?" Feng Xi asked cautiously. "Why did the Ancestral Witches choose to stand on the side of the human race and lead the Witch Clan in their battles against heaven and earth?"

"They paid a heavy price and endured great hardship, yet in the end, they might not even reap the greatest rewards—the Five Heavenly Emperors control the Five Ancestral Witches, and Lord Gonggong, seemingly forced by Zhuanxu, angrily rammed into Buzhou Mountain..."

"Even if you can't overthrow Emperor Jun and Taiyi while living among the demons, what you gain might not be any worse... and the advantage is that it's easy, without having to be an enemy of the whole world."

"So, why did the Ancestral Witches choose the human race, one of the myriad races of the primordial world, and decide to embark on the most difficult path?"

Feng Xi asked nervously, her hands clenched into fists.

He was once a human, so he has a good impression of the human race, but what about the Ancestral Witch?

The supreme beings with great supernatural powers and innate saints had little to do with the human race—at this time, the human race had not yet been born.

However, they brought their own provisions and risked becoming enemies of the world to fight against the massive demon army!

Objectively analyzing the situation and setting aside personal biases and emotions, Feng Xi found many aspects of the Ancestral Witches' behavior incomprehensible.

Of course, Feng Xi was also taking a risk by asking this question.

He was worried that he might accidentally step on a landmine.

"Because of ideals."

Dijiang Zuwu said calmly, "Because we are not satisfied with the state of this era."

"Huh?" Feng Xi asked, bewildered.

"The law of the jungle prevails, and strength determines superiority... This vast primordial world is nothing more than a breeding ground for venomous insects."

"The ancestral god Pangu created heaven and earth, and ultimately sacrificed himself for it, transforming into all things in the universe—what a magnificent spirit this is!"

"The world he left behind was filled with killing and chaos. Driven by ambition, desire and other forces, violence was used to resolve conflicts and disputes, resulting in countless killings."

"And when powerful warriors clash, the aftershocks can unintentionally slaughter everything in their path. Countless souls perished in these accidents... to whom can they confide their despair and heartbreak? And who will listen?"

"We feel that this shouldn't be happening."

"So, we decided to change the world."

"Huh??" Feng Xi looked completely bewildered.

"We are pursuing a world like this, hoping for a people like this—" Dijiang whispered, "Every living being is perfect in character and wisdom, with a noble and perfect will... A beautiful world, where living beings strive for progress."

"..." Feng Xi could barely speak.

After struggling for a long time, he finally managed to utter, "Does such a world exist? Does such a race exist?"

"Of course not," said Dijiang Zuwu with a smile. "However, it doesn't matter."

"If we don't have it, we'll create it!"

"To create a flawless race, bearing the spiritual aspirations of us all...to lead them, to transform this world, and to let the most radiant light of humanity shine forth!"

"So rather than saying we chose the human race, it's more accurate to say we chose the spirit that the human race carries."

Feng Xi was stunned and speechless.

At this moment, he truly understood the magnanimity and lofty character of the Ancestral Witches, which was dazzling!

What does it matter if the whole world is our enemy, because of our ideals?

Though there be millions, I will go!

The Twelve Ancestral Witches have transcended base desires; their actions are not for power struggles but for creating a beautiful primordial world!

Even if they have to fight against Hongjun, against the Heavenly Dao, against the demon race on this path... they will not be afraid!

Is it worth it?

Feng Xi didn't speak, but the look in her eyes as she looked at Dijiang Zuwu conveyed this meaning.

Dijiang smiled and said, "Of course it's worth it."

"What ordinary people call seeking the Dao has lost its meaning for us," he pointed out. "Because the Great Luo has already reached the pinnacle of the Dao!"

"The Great Luo is the Great Dao!"

"Since it is the Way, why seek it?"

"What the heart desires is where the Way lies."

"Putting my heart into practice, fulfilling my vows... this is the cultivation of the Great Luo."

"If one day you reach our level, you will understand."

Dijiang patted Fengxi on the shoulder, with a hint of expectation in his voice.

Feng Xi fell into deep thought.

"Alright, you don't need to think about that now. Just focus on what's in front of you." Dijiang changed the subject. "You've now reached the Golden Immortal level, right?"

"Yes." Feng Xi collected her thoughts and answered solemnly, "The reward from back then, and the opportunity to enter Lord Zhu Jiuyin's Time Realm for cultivation over the years, allowed me to recently reach the Golden Immortal level."

"True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Taiyi, Daluo..." Dijiang pondered for a moment, "Although the level of Golden Immortal is still too low, it is at least not the lowest level."

"You've barely earned the right to go out and explore." He thought for a moment, "Here's what we'll do: go and prepare. In a while, I'll take you to see the world and explore this vast wilderness."

"Huh?!" Feng Xi's eyes lit up. "Thank you, Ancestral Witch!"

"But what are we going out to do this time? What preparations do I need to make?"

"Let's do some diplomatic work," Dijiang said. "Although the Witch Clan didn't have a good start, we're not without friends."

"Now that the internal affairs of the Witch Clan are on track, it's time to take the initiative to travel and contact allies!"
