The Primordial Era: The Mythical Path Beginning with the Jie Sect

Chapter 51 The Demon Clan Understands, Di Jun Makes a Decision

Heavenly Court, Lingxiao Palace

Emperor Jun and the others, who had returned from the primordial era, gathered in the main hall and remained silent for a long time.

After a long silence, Donghuang Taiyi, unable to contain his frustration, spoke first.

"Brother, should we continue fighting? Even if we forge the Witch-Slaying Sword and defeat the Witch Clan, I feel that our Demon Clan will not become the protagonist of the prehistoric world. Zhou Chen of the Human Clan is too strong. Although he was taken away by the Dao Ancestor, he will eventually return. Should we fight the Human Clan again? The Human Clan is also involved with many Saints! I feel that our path of collecting the fortune of all races in the prehistoric world seems to be blocked."

Di Jun remained silent, his brows furrowed as if he were deep in thought.

The two sisters, Xihe and Changxi, didn't say anything. They were Daoist partners with Dijun, sharing the same origin, and their fates were intertwined. However, they rarely interfered in matters concerning the fate of the demon race.

Fuxi hesitated, his position was quite awkward. As the emperor of the demon race, but his sister had created the human race, he did not want to see humans and demons fighting each other, but this occasion was indeed not suitable for him to speak.

"Your Majesties, we originally planned to defeat the Wu Clan, then unify the prehistoric world, and incorporate all the races of the prehistoric world into the Demon Clan, making them the protagonists of heaven and earth. We could also use the immense fortune to advance ourselves to a higher level."

We didn't take the emergence of the human race seriously at first, after all, the human race is just an acquired race. Not only are they physically strong, but their cultivation aptitude is also at the bottom among all the races in the prehistoric world.

But Zhou Chen's appearance caught us completely off guard; his presence directly blocked our path.

It's not that our demon race is afraid of Zhou Chen, but whether it's worth it. After all, we're just planning to unify the prehistoric world and gamble with our destiny. The outcome is unknown.

However, the energy generated during the battle with Zhou Chen might have jeopardized the existence of the Primordial World if the Sages and Dao Ancestors hadn't intervened. Therefore, the three emperors must carefully consider this matter.

As the strategist of the demon race, Bai Ze expressed his opinion. In fact, he had already rejected this method of unifying the prehistoric world in his heart. After all, no one had ever succeeded with this method, and whether it would work was still unknown.

If there were no humans, fighting with the witch clan would be fine, since even without collecting the fortune of all races in the primordial world, the demon race and the witch clan could not coexist peacefully.

However, Zhou Chen's appearance made Bai Ze back down. After painstakingly defeating the Wu Clan, collecting their fortune, and then waging war against the Human Clan to unleash that terrifying power, the Primordial World would be destroyed before the battle was even over. Putting aside the issue of the karmic consequences of the Primordial World's destruction, they couldn't survive without it, so what else could they talk about?

Of course, it is also possible that we will be stopped by the saints or the Dao Ancestor, but that would still be a failure!
The other demon saints all looked at Di Jun, awaiting the decision of this demon lord, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court.

At the same time, images of the Lingxiao Palace also appeared in the Zixiao Palace.

"Grandmaster, do you think we should modify their memories? The Lich War is gone."

Zhou Chen looked at the image and said to Dao Ancestor Hongjun, "Defining a realm is not something that can be accomplished overnight. It's like Dao Ancestor checking (not spying) on ​​the situation of the Wu and Yao races."

"It's all your fault for causing us so much trouble."

Modifying memories? Do you think this is a game? Unless you restart the timeline, you can't change things at will. Otherwise, when you leave, you can make repairs and adjustments that even the Great Dao can't help but notice.

Therefore, there is only one chance to define a realm. If you make a mistake, you can only restart the timeline. There is no second chance.

Someone will handle this; you don't need to worry about it. Just focus on your own things.

Hongjun Daozu said in an annoyed tone.

Zhou Chen shrank back, not daring to speak, and continued to look at the mirror image in the Lingxiao Palace.

"Fight! Forge all the human blood essence into a witch-slaying sword to fight against the Ancestral Witch. This battle concerns the fate of the clan and cannot be lost. Everyone in the demon race must be prepared."

Di Jun's majestic eyes revealed a resolute expression, his words leaving no room for argument, a stark contrast to his previous worried demeanor.

Although Taiyi, Xihe, and Changxi were puzzled, they did not say anything. Taiyi was a brother of the same origin, and Xihe and Changxi were Daoist partners who shared honor and disgrace. They both trusted Dijun completely and supported any decision he made.

Fuxi frowned, somewhat puzzled by Dijun's decision, but did not argue.

Although Kunpeng didn't say anything, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Bai Ze and the others hesitated, feeling that Di Jun seemed like a different person. He knew that doing so was very dangerous, but he still disregarded his clan and insisted on starting a war with the Wu Clan!
"Ok!"

Di Jun looked over with a stern gaze, as did Tai Yi, and Bai Ze and the others quickly nodded in agreement.

"Don't overthink it, just focus on preparing for battle. This battle is inevitable. Even if we don't want to fight, what about the Witch Clan?"

Furthermore, why would the Dao Ancestor so easily let us go?

Di Jun still offered an explanation, but to prevent his subordinates from becoming disloyal, he directly shifted the blame onto Dao Zu. The war between the Lich King and the Demon King could not afford any problems. As for whether Dao Zu would blame him, he didn't think Dao Zu was so narrow-minded. Besides, he was about to log off anyway, so he didn't care about that.

That's right, Di Jun knew the answer. There was no other way; things had gotten too out of hand. If he didn't tell him, the Lich War might really be over. Di Jun was the ruler of the demon race and the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court. This wasn't something you could just sit in if you had high cultivation; you couldn't handle it without a certain level of mental fortitude.

Of course, he didn't completely believe what that person said, and he planned to go to Zixiao Palace alone later.

Fuxi, Bai Ze, and the others shuddered, recalling the Dao Ancestor's punishment and the ten-day period he had specifically instructed them to endure. They understood. Although they knew this battle was inevitable, a bitter smile still appeared on their lips. Indeed, those below the level of a sage are all ants!

However, this strengthened their resolve; if they were going to fight, they would fight to the death. In an instant, the fighting spirit of the Lingxiao Palace soared to the heavens, shaking the very foundations of the universe.

"Alright, everyone go and prepare! Fuxi, leave the Map of Mountains and Rivers behind. I'm going to Chaos to return the Spirit Treasure to Goddess Nuwa."

Looking at the demons' spirited appearance, Di Jun felt a little guilty, but he couldn't tell them the truth, so he waved them away to avoid seeing them and worrying about them. As for the Mountain and River Map, he used it as an excuse to go to Chaos.

Fuxi handed over the spiritual treasure without giving it much thought.

Di Jun accepted the spiritual treasure, and Fu Xi, Bai Ze, and the others went out.

"Big brother, is it really that person?"

As soon as Taiyi and Fuxi left, he immediately asked the question, but he did not call the sage by his name directly, but instead used "that person" instead.

The two sisters, Xihe and Dijun, also looked at Dijun, waiting for an explanation.

Di Jun patted Taiyi on the shoulder, then looked at Xihe and Changxi gently before speaking slowly.

"It doesn't matter, trust me!"

Although no explanation was given, those six words calmed the anxious hearts of Taiyi, Xihe, and Changxi.

"I'm going to Chaos. You all guard the Heavenly Court. During this time, do not have any conflict with the Witch Clan."

After Emperor Jun finished speaking, he took the Map of Mountains and Rivers and headed to Chaos. He first returned the spiritual treasure before arriving at Zixiao Palace.

"Dao Ancestor, Emperor Jun requests an audience."

When Di Jun returned to Zixiao Palace, his expression was very complicated.

The gates of Zixiao Palace slowly opened, and a detached voice rang out.

"come in!"

"Thank you, Dao Ancestor!"

He thanked them and strode into the Purple Cloud Palace.

After Di Jun entered Zixiao Palace, he saw Dao Zu sitting on the cloud bed, while Zhou Chen sat on the futon below, looking at three images above. One was a picture of his own demon clan's Heavenly Court, another was a picture of the many ancestral witches of the witch clan, and the third was a picture of the primordial land.

Although we felt uncomfortable being monitored, we couldn't care less about it now.

"It's true. This world exists on an illusory timeline. We've found a way to escape it. You can proceed according to the timeline's progress. Of course, it's not about killing you to fulfill the primordial world."

Instead, the lich and the demon perish together, and Mount Buzhou collapses, creating an opportunity to escape this illusory timeline and enter the real world.

Your true spirits will be taken by the will of Buzhou Mountain to Pangu, the source of the timeline, after your death. Once you escape the false timeline, you can either return or reside in the true timeline—it's entirely up to you.

Before Di Jun could ask, Hongjun Daozu said it directly.

Di Jun finally felt relieved and then asked another question.

"Teacher, what is the progression of the world line?"

"Next, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, reincarnated. Then, your ten little golden crows were tricked by the Sage Zhunti and sent to the prehistoric world. Then, Kuafu chased the sun, and Houyi shot down nine little golden crows, thus ending the final battle between the Witch and the Demon. Both the Witch and the Demon races suffered heavy casualties, with almost all of their leaders wiped out, leaving only Gonggong, the Ancestral Witch, alive. But in his grief, he angrily rammed Buzhou Mountain. Next came the matter of mending the sky, which I won't tell you about, because by then, we had successfully broken out of the timeline. If it succeeds, you can see for yourself; if it doesn't, there's no point in telling you."

This time it was Zhou Chen who answered. He was very familiar with the progress of the prehistoric world. Since Di Jun already knew about these things, it wouldn't hurt to tell him. Zhou Chen believed that Di Jun was also unwilling to live in this false world.

"Thank you for informing me, fellow Daoist. Dijun will return to the Heavenly Court immediately and will certainly not jeopardize the grand plan for all living beings."

When he heard that his child had died, a trace of grief flashed in Di Jun's eyes, but he still bowed and thanked him before turning back to the Heavenly Court.

"Di Jun, your mind and abilities are quite good. What do you think of him guarding the timeline in the future?" Hongjun Daozu said calmly.

"Sure, I don't mind. Anyway, they can't go back to the Primordial World for the time being, so it's good to give them something to do."

"I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore, Houtu is about to be reincarnated."
