I get stronger every day I live.

Chapter 191 Buddha and Demon Join Forces
The moment the witch clan members unleashed their primordial spirits, the powerful demon clan members panicked.

They considered that there were many possible reasons for the strength of the Witch Clan. Perhaps they had a powerful backer or had obtained some kind of powerful innate magic weapon.

But they never imagined that the Witch Clan would awaken the power of their primordial spirit!
If the Wu Clan awakens their primordial spirit power, doesn't that mean that a terrifying being like Pangu might appear in the Immortal Realm again, and there might be more than one!
What is going on here?

The great battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan unsurprisingly alarmed the entire world.

Countless powerful figures peered through the void at the battlefield between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan. When they saw the powerful primordial spirit emanating from the Witch Clan, they were all greatly surprised, their expressions filled with utter horror.

"The Wu Clan has cultivated a primordial spirit?"

"How is this possible? Isn't it said that the Witch Clan can never cultivate a primordial spirit? The Witch Clan's inability to cultivate a primordial spirit is a law of heaven. How did they break it?"

"The Wu Clan was already terrifying without a primordial spirit, but now that they have cultivated one, our Great Thousand World is likely to undergo a major upheaval."

At the same time, the Demon Emperor was also secretly keeping an eye on the situation of the Witch Clan.

Upon seeing that the Wu Clan had actually cultivated a primordial spirit, his eyes changed drastically. He appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was secretly churning with turmoil.

Soon, the demon army was driven back by the witch clan. With the help of the primordial spirit power, the impact of the witch-slaying sword on the witch clan was minimized.

"Very well, Witch Clan, just you wait, we will definitely be back!"

Faced with the domineering and powerful Wu Clan who had even cultivated a primordial spirit, the demon race suffered heavy casualties and was forced to retreat.

After a symbolic pursuit, the twelve ancestral witches retreated back into the witch clan.

As the saying goes, "cast a long line to catch a big fish," now is not the time to reveal all their cards.

"The demon race is nothing but a bunch of trash."

"Hmph, without the Witch-Slaying Sword, what are the demon race compared to my Witch Clan?"

"We have now exposed our primordial spirits, and the demon race will certainly not let this go. Next time, it will probably not be so easy to defeat them."

"The demon race might bring the real witch-slaying sword to deal with our witch race, so we need to prepare early."

"It's not just the demon race. After this battle, many people will probably be restless. The witch race will enter a state of war preparation."

"Yes."

Demon Court.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The Witch Clan has cultivated a primordial spirit!" a demon general cried out anxiously.

"I am already aware of this matter. So what if the Witch Clan has cultivated a primordial spirit? Without an Immortal Emperor, the Witch Clan is ultimately nothing but ants in my eyes. They can't cause any trouble."

"Your Majesty, the Witch Clan has suddenly cultivated a primordial spirit. Our demon race needs to pay close attention to this matter. There may be a master behind the Witch Clan."

"I share the same thought. Under the control of the demon race, how could the witch race possibly cultivate the primordial spirit technique? There must be someone guiding them behind the scenes. Who is this person? He is able to help the witch race condense their primordial spirit, so his strength is extraordinary. We must find the person behind the witch race as soon as possible, and then take the witch-slaying sword and wipe them out in one fell swoop."

The Demon Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his back to the crowd, and spoke calmly.

"Your Majesty, what should we do next?"

"Send people to closely monitor the movements of the Witch Clan. Report any movements by the Witch Clan immediately. Also, have someone investigate who has been in contact with the Witch Clan recently. I will find out who is behind the Witch Clan. Hmph, daring to oppose my Demon Clan and help the Witch Clan is simply courting death."

The Demon Emperor's eyes flashed with killing intent, and his hands clenched slightly.

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, why don't we wipe out the Witch Clan now? The Witch Clan has cultivated a primordial spirit. Once they fully grow up, they will become a major threat to our demon race."

"How could I not know? But now is not the time to destroy the Witch Clan. Don't forget that there is still an old woman living in the Witch Clan. If we destroy the Witch Clan now, even if the Demon Clan achieves final victory, it will pay an extremely heavy price. Before we find a way to suppress her, the Witch Clan cannot be destroyed lightly. Otherwise, the foundation of my Demon Clan may very well end up benefiting others."

Upon hearing this, a look of apprehension appeared on the faces of the demon saints, and they immediately fell silent.

human race.

Sitting on the viewing platform was a Taoist priest in white robes. His eyes, filled with the marks of time, seemed to possess the power to see through everything.

"The Witch Clan has actually cultivated a primordial spirit dharma form. This is interesting. Let me calculate it."

The white-robed Taoist priest slowly closed his eyes and began to carefully deduce the cause and effect of the matter by counting on his fingers.

A moment later, a look of surprise and uncertainty appeared in the white-robed Taoist's eyes. He muttered to himself, "Huh? I can't even figure it out. Interesting, really interesting. It seems that a mysterious power has completely shielded the Heavenly Dao. There are actually people in the Immortal Realm with such abilities."

"Never mind, let's just wait and see."

On the other side, a joyous and lively scene unfolded within the Wu tribe.

They brought the demons they killed or captured back to the witch clan, where they held a grand celebration, drinking and eating heartily, singing and dancing.

Lai Yang was naturally pulled out as well, joining the grand celebration to commemorate the rise of the Witch Clan.

Looking at the Wu tribe men and women dancing around the bonfire, Lai Yang smiled, but his mind involuntarily drifted to the disciples of the Immortal Continent and Mo Ruyan, whose whereabouts were still unknown.

The Wu Clan agreed to help Lai Yang search for Mo Ruyan's whereabouts in the Immortal Realm, but Lai Yang didn't have high hopes.

After all, the Wu Clan is not in a good situation now. Even if they successfully awaken their primordial spirit and have the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation as their strongest trump card, the Wu Clan has been in decline for a long time and its foundation is far inferior to that of the currently powerful Demon Clan.

The Wu tribe has once again been targeted by the demon tribe, and it is unclear when the demon tribe will attack again.

Now, all Lai Yang can do is work hard to cultivate and improve his strength. Only by having strong strength can he have the confidence to protect himself in the upcoming battles.

Only the living possess limitless possibilities.

In the celestial realm, cultivation is timeless.

The demon race had been secretly keeping a close eye on the movements of the witch race, harassing them from time to time to test them.

Normally, only some ordinary members of the Wu tribe go out hunting, while most of them are busy cultivating and strengthening themselves.

They knew very well that the Witch Clan would soon face a tough battle, and if they didn't work hard to cultivate and strengthen themselves, they wouldn't even be qualified to be cannon fodder.

Under pressure from the demon race, the Ancestral Witches chose to join forces with the Asura and Beast races, who had a poor relationship with the demon race, to fight against the powerful demon race. "Brother, do you think we can find a way to rescue the Goddess Wutu from the underworld? Goddess Wutu is a powerful being at the Immortal Emperor level. If she were to guard our witch race, I believe the demon race would not dare to disregard our witch race so much."

Upon hearing the Third Ancestral Witch's words, everyone was taken aback and pondered for a moment.

"The Netherworld is no weaker than the demon race. Even if we now have the primordial spirit and the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, we may not be able to snatch people from the Netherworld."

"The Five Ghost Emperors and the Ten Yama Kings of the Underworld are not to be trifled with. If we want to rescue the Goddess of the Witch, we must break the cycle of reincarnation. They will never sit idly by and watch us disrupt the cycle of reincarnation in the Underworld."

"Third Brother, you're getting too cocky. One demon is enough to give us trouble, and you still want to go looking for trouble with the Underworld."

"I was just saying it offhand," the Third Ancestral Witch said with an awkward laugh.

"I believe that day will come. My Wu clan has unlimited potential. Given enough time, we will turn that damned demon clan and underworld upside down. We will kill gods and Buddhas if they stand in our way, and fight until everyone fears my Wu clan."

“That’s right. We will kill gods and Buddhas if they stand in our way. With the protection of our Father God, our Wu Clan will surely return to its peak.”

"By the way, what are you doing, fellow cultivator? Are you still in seclusion cultivating?"

"Ah."

"Now that so much time has passed, do you guys think he's the reincarnation of the Father God?"

Upon hearing this, all the Ancestral Witches fell silent and hesitated, none of them being the first to speak.

After a moment, the Twelve Ancestral Witches broke the silence by speaking first, saying in a clear voice: "I think that whether you are the reincarnation of the Father God or not, everyone has witnessed the contributions you have made to our Witch Clan. Even if you are not the reincarnation of the Father God, you should still be a person respected by our Witch Clan and our best friend."

“Little sister is right. Whether he is the reincarnation of Father God or not, he is now a friend of our witch clan.”

The Western Paradise, the Buddhist Realm.

The Buddha, whose whole body was bathed in Buddhist light, suddenly opened his eyes, looked into the empty void, and uttered a Sanskrit chant: "Fellow Daoist, since you have come, why not show yourself?"

A moment later, a demonic aura emanated from the area, and then an unruly figure emerged from the dense demonic aura.

Sensing the terrifying demonic aura emanating from the other party, the group of Arhats and Bodhisattvas narrowed their eyes slightly, feeling a little nervous.

"Truly a rare guest! What wind has blown Fellow Daoist Demon Emperor to my Western Paradise?" the Buddha of the Western Paradise said with a smile.

"The Witch Clan has already mastered the method of cultivating a primordial spirit. Are you aware of this, fellow Daoist?" The Demon Emperor waved his hand and casually uttered the words.

"I am already aware of this matter. You did not come here specifically to tell me about the Wu Clan's cultivation of the primordial spirit, did you?"

Seeing that the Western Paradise Buddhist beads remained unmoved, the Demon Emperor continued, "The innate physical bodies of the Witch Clan are extremely powerful. Now that they have cultivated their primordial spirits, they will surely pose a great threat to the Immortal Realm in the future. I have come here today hoping to cooperate with the Western Paradise to discuss the matter of attacking the Witch Clan."

"Amitabha." Xitian Buddhist beads chanted a Buddhist prayer. "Heaven cherishes life. The Wu Clan is now at its last gasp. Why must you exterminate them, fellow Daoist?"

"Hmph, now that things have come to this, why bother with pretense and feigned compassion? During the Lich War, your Buddhist sect did a lot of scheming behind the scenes to gain benefits from the Lich Clan. Once the Lich Clan rises again, they will inevitably go to war with my Demon Clan, but your Buddhist sect can't expect to stay out of it either."

"Amitabha, I know you are in a hurry, but please don't rush." ​​The Buddha of the Western Paradise spoke with a compassionate and merciful expression, his voice neither too warm nor too cold. "The Buddhist sect has always been compassionate and does not like killing. However, the Wu tribe are all brave and fierce. In order to avoid bloodshed, the Buddhist sect is not unable to lend you a hand. It's just that the West is barren and has few magical treasures, so I'm afraid it will be of little use."

The Demon Emperor finally understood that all that convoluted nonsense he had uttered was just a ploy to gain benefits from a bunch of hypocritical bald monks.

"The Witch Clan will be dealt with by my Demon Clan. While I am dealing with the Witch Clan, I hope that the Buddhist sect can suppress that one in the Underworld and prevent her from coming out and ruining our plans. After the matter is settled, a top-grade imperial weapon and a Chaos Spirit Fruit will be presented to you."

The Demon Emperor stated his demands and the reward he promised to the Buddhist community upon success, awaiting the reply from the Buddha of the Western Paradise.

The Buddha of the Western Paradise hesitated for a moment, then solemnly recited a Buddhist chant: "Amitabha, good, fellow Daoist, please rest assured, I agree to this matter."

"However, I still need some time to prepare."

"No problem, I await your good news, fellow Daoist."

Having said that, the Demon Emperor immediately left the Western Paradise Buddhist Realm, his figure disappearing without a trace.

After the Demon Emperor left, all the Arhats and Bodhisattvas turned their gazes toward the Buddha sitting in the center. One of the Bodhisattvas couldn't help but say, "Amitabha, we really must help the Demon Clan destroy the Witch Clan."

"The Wu Clan was formed from the heart of Pangu. If the Wu Clan is completely destroyed, the consequences will be enormous."

"How could I not know? Unfortunately, the Witch Clan brought about its own destruction. If the Witch Clan continues to linger on, there may be a glimmer of hope. However, the Witch Clan's condensation of primordial spirits has already violated the rules of Heaven and is an act against Heaven. If the Witch Clan is not destroyed now, once the Witch Clan grows stronger, the Immortal Realm will surely be in chaos, and my Buddhist sect will also become the target of the Witch Clan's purge."

"Now that the demon race is willing to take on this enormous karma, wouldn't it be wonderful for our Buddhist sect to do them a favor?"

"Amitabha."

And so began the schemes of the Buddhist sect and the demon race against the witch race.

The Demon Emperor sought help from Buddhism because Buddhism wielded immense power in the underworld, making it far easier for them to act than the demon race.

To control the ancient ancestral witches who are sealed in the cycle of reincarnation, Buddhism is far more convenient than the demon race to manipulate things.

As long as Buddhism can seal and control that last ancient ancestral witch, the mere witch clan will be at the mercy of the demon clan, who can do whatever they want with them.

Even though the Wu Clan had cultivated their primordial spirit, it was meaningless in the face of the absolute power of the Immortal Emperor.

The Wu tribe members felt a sense of impending storm and an inexplicable unease.

On the other side, Lai Yang cultivated with the help of the Heart of Pangu, which contained the origin of the Great Dao of Power.

Under the accelerated influence of the time law, Lai Yang's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.

With ample cultivation resources, he broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm with almost no bottlenecks.

Lai Yang felt that if he could completely refine the Pangu Heart within his body, he might not only reach the Quasi-Saint realm, but also break through to the Immortal Emperor realm in one fell swoop.

Completely refining and mastering the Heart of Pangu is not an easy task. First, one must comprehend the Great Dao of Power; otherwise, one is only fit to possess a mountain of gold, but cannot truly use it.

For this reason, Lai Yang studied the Pangu Creation Diagram almost every step of the way and practiced it.

With the aid of the power of the Time Law, the time was greatly shortened.
