I searched for corpses in the Wuding River to extract entries

Until the timeline was completely broken, Dazhu Tianjun remained silent.

He slowly closed his eyes, as if thinking.

Xie Que stared at him expressionlessly, also remaining silent.

However, unlike Xie Que, Dazhu Tianjun had completely different feelings about the destruction of the Earthly Immortal Realm.

The destruction of the Earthly Immortal Realm might be just a trivial matter to Xie Que.

But for Dazhu Tianjun, this means that the fate of the huge race behind the Wu clan will also be affected.

As the helmsman of the Witch Clan, Dazhu Tianjun shoulders a heavy responsibility and he cannot ignore this issue.

In this silent room, time seemed to stand still, with only the sound of gentle breathing echoing in the air.

The thoughts of Lord Dazhu were surging in his mind like a raging tide.

What will be the future of the earthly immortal world?
Where will the fate of the witch clan go?
These questions weighed on the heart of Lord Dazhu Tianjun like heavy rocks, making it difficult for him to breathe.

His brows were tightly furrowed and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was thinking about something.

In this quiet atmosphere, Dazhu Tianjun's thinking became clearer and clearer, and various possibilities continued to intertwine and collide in his mind.

After a long period of thinking, his frown finally relaxed.
It was as if I had suddenly figured out something of vital importance.

As he thought more deeply, he finally realized a fact.
Although the destruction of the Earthly Immortal Realm is inevitable, the future of the Witch Clan is not completely hopeless.

He slowly turned his head and looked straight at Xie Que.

Then he said in a firm and decisive tone:

"Your Excellency, since things have developed to this point, the agreement between our Wu Clan and Wu Zong will officially take effect from now on."

His words revealed an unquestionable determination, without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Xie Que did not hesitate too much. He nodded slightly to show his agreement.

Then, he seemed to remember something and took out a little faint spiritual light from his arms.

Xie Que handed the spiritual light to the other party and said with a smile:

"This is my humble opinion on the Twelve Celestial Gods and Demons Formation. I hope it can be of some help to you. Please accept it."

Dazhu Tianjun was slightly startled, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

I didn't expect Xie Que to be so generous. Although this item belongs to the Wu clan, it was obtained by Xie Que himself and can be regarded as his personal property.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully looking at the light on Xie Que's fingertips, and his trust in Xie Que increased a little more.

After a moment, he nodded slowly, reached out to take the spiritual light, and said solemnly:

"Thank you, Your Excellency. The Wu Clan will always remember this friendship."

Dazhu Tianjun nodded slightly, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, as if he was weighing something.

After a while, Dazhu Tianjun also said: "I see that there seems to be a candle dragon energy in your body, so I will teach you this method of my father."

As soon as the words fell, a wisp of purple-grey mist suddenly emerged from the palm of his hand.
There were countless changes inside, and Xie Que was also amazed when he saw it.

He could see that all the changes inside came from the cosmic light.

He also didn't expect that Dazhu Tianjun would return the gift with such a precious method.

Moreover, the ancestor witch Zhu Jiuyin was the ancestor witch who had received the true teachings of Zhulong. Naturally, his method was incomparably compatible with Xie Que's "Dragon and Snake Ringing the World Sutra".

As Xie Que watched, he gradually realized that this method was called "Zhou Xi", which was taken from the breath of Zhulong and could overturn the sun, moon, and the universe.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Lord Tianjun. I will remember this kindness in my heart."

Dazhu Tianjun nodded slightly, then laughed: "Since you and I have reached an agreement, we are allies. I hope you can protect the Wu clan."

Xie Que raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's not a question of protection, after all, your cultivation level is similar to mine."

"But since you said so, I guess there must be something wrong."

Dazhu Tianjun said: "Yes, I plan to enter the void and find a chance to achieve enlightenment."

Xie Que listened and was speechless.

He didn't expect that this Great Candle Heavenly Monarch actually had such ambitions.
Just as he was about to speak, Dazhu Tianjun said, "Your Excellency, there is no need to persuade us anymore. We cultivators are devoted to the Dao."

"From now on, the Wu Clan will practice martial arts, which will also ensure that I will not have any future troubles. Naturally, I want to get a glimpse of the Dao!"

Xie Que nodded, knowing that Dazhu Tianjun had made up his mind, and stopped trying to dissuade him.

After the two said goodbye, the figure of Dazhu Tianjun disappeared in an instant.

……

The ancestral land of the Wu clan, with the Golden Crow Temple as its main site.

Dazhu Tianjun summoned the nine Tianjun His Highnesses and announced his decision directly: "In the future, you will follow Yushan into Wuzong."

Upon hearing this, several Heavenly Lords were shocked.

Dazhu Tianjun then told all the future that he and Xie Que had seen.
He also gave Xie Que the incomplete part of the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to him.

This made all the princes keep silent.

They knew very well that someone who could share such secrets and still be recognized by Dazhu Tianjun must be someone worthy of trust.

Then Dazhu Tianjun said another earth-shattering news:

"I will personally go into the depths of the void and search for the opportunity to attain enlightenment that the ancient witches have never been able to find."

The nine Heavenly Lords were all slightly startled when they heard this.
I wanted to object, but Dazhu Tianjun said, "Even if you don't want to... I also want to go to Yidaoji!"

"Don't try to dissuade me. I have seen a glimpse of a chance of survival - only by transcending the realm of earthly immortals can one survive in the void and chaos."

Several Heavenly Lords were stunned and swallowed back the words that were about to come to their lips.

They knew in their hearts that Lord Dazhu had made up his mind.

Moreover, in order to protect the Wu clan, Lord Dazhu has already wasted tens of millions of years.

Dazhu Tianjun turned and looked towards Wuzong:
"The Wu Sect's master is more powerful than mine, and will surely be able to protect the Wu Clan and help them survive the catastrophe."

Afterwards, Dazhu Tianjun began to instruct the other eight Tianjuns on some other matters.

"Since the agreement has been made, I will take 360 ​​different bloodlines of the Ancestral Witches and give them to the World Honored Sect Master."

Dayu Tianjun was a little surprised: "The agreement was for three hundred strands."

Dazhu Tianjun shook his head and said, "Take thirty strands of blood from each of the twelve ancestor witches and send them over."

"Since the World Honored Master has treated our Wu clan with sincerity, we should repay him with gratitude."

Then he instructed: "Compared to me, the World Honored Patriarch has a better chance of achieving enlightenment. I hope you will seize the opportunity."

After these words were spoken, several Heavenly Lords looked at each other and were even more shocked.

After all, they all knew very well what enlightenment meant.

……

The light inside Tianwu Pavilion was dim.

Hall Master Bai Lian stood in the center of the room, tightly holding a jade message slip in his hand.

His face was gloomy, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes:
"What? His Highness Dayu actually asked me to send three thousand body-tempering warriors to the Wu Sect?"

He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then transmitted a message to the jade slip in his hand:

"Your Highness, I don't understand. Although our Wu clan has declined, we are still much stronger than this Wu Zong, right? Why do we have to bow to the martial arts now?"

There was a hint of reluctance in the words of Bai Lianzhang. Facing Bai Lianzhang's questioning, Dayu Tianjun had a calm expression, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile:
"The head of the hall should know that after Xuanli and the other four abolished the bloodline of the ancestor witch, their life lamps burned like the scorching sun?"

Dayu Tianjun's voice was steady and powerful, with an air of unquestionable power: "Martial arts is not about subversion, but about letting the witch tribe break free from their shackles."

Dayu Tianjun looked at Bai Lian, the head of the hall, and his expression suddenly became serious:

"You will also go to Wuzong and try to practice both body tempering and martial arts with your half-step body of creation."

"If it succeeds, it will be the new path for the Wu Clan; if it fails, it will not be too late to express your opposition."

The voice of Lord Dayu was steady and powerful, and every word seemed to strike like a heavy hammer on the heart of Master Bai Lian.

Hall Master Bai Lian's face turned pale and blue in an instant, and a strong resistance surged in his heart.

As the head of the Tianwu Pavilion, he once despised the existence of the entire Great Southern Region.
Now he was asked to try martial arts that he had never been exposed to before, which was hard for him to accept.

His lips trembled slightly, and he was about to refute and express his dissatisfaction and worries.

However, Lord Yu Tianjun transmitted a long passage from the jade slip.

Hall Master Bai Lian subconsciously began to flip through it, and saw a fragment of "The Five Elements Chapter of Eight-Nine Mysterious Art" hidden inside the jade slip.

"I have practiced martial arts in a human body and have reached the realm of immortality. You have great talent, so you should give it a try."

The voice of Dayu Tianjun sounded again, with a hint of encouragement and expectation.

Hall Master Bai Lian's hand holding the jade slip was shaking slightly, his heart was full of contradictions and struggles.

On the one hand, he was full of doubts and fears about martial arts, and worried that he would not be able to adapt to this new way of practice.

On the other hand, he thought that this was the decision of Dazhu Tianjun, and his majesty made him dare not disobey easily.

There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but he finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

He raised his head, looked at Dayu Tianjun, and said with a trembling voice:

"In that case, I will go to Wuzong and give it a try. But if it fails, I hope Your Highness can reconsider the Wu Clan's way of cultivation."

Dayu Tianjun nodded slightly: "I believe you, Bai Lian. No matter what the result is, this is a great attempt for our Wu clan to break free from the shackles."

Three days later, Tianwu Pavilion.

In the huge square, three thousand body-tempering warriors lined up neatly, preparing to go to Wuzong.

Bai Lian stood at the front, his eyes looking over the crowd in the direction of Wu Zong.

At this moment, he felt mixed emotions, but he knew that this was the decision made by the higher-ups.
I can't object, and there's no turning back, so I can only move forward.

……

Chixiao Sect.

Chi Yangzi was sitting in front of a desk, on which was placed a jade slip for sending a message.

He held the jade slip tightly in his hand, but the information on it was like a heavy hammer hitting Chi Yangzi's heart hard.

The words "The Demon-Slaying Alliance is disbanded, and all surrender to Emperor Wuzong" made his body tremble involuntarily.

He widened his eyes and looked at the jade slip in disbelief.

However, the reality is so cruel.

A feeling of despair and unwillingness surged in Chi Yangzi's heart, and he suddenly burst into laughter.

The laughter was sharp and piercing, echoing in the silent room as if it was about to break through the roof.

"Impossible! How could Tianwu Pavilion help the tyrant to commit atrocities?" Chi Yangzi roared.

They had waited for so long, but they didn't expect that the final result would be that Tianwu Pavilion "betrayed" them. This was unacceptable to him.

At this moment, anger and fear intertwined in Chi Yangzi's heart, and his reason was almost completely overwhelmed.

He messaged the jade slip frantically, hoping that Bai Lian would change his mind and change his decision.

"Pavilion Master! Please think twice..." Chi Yangzi's voice was pleading.

But at this time, he only received Bai Lian's cold response:
"Body Tempering is dead, martial arts should flourish, this is not my decision!"

"Chiyangzi, if you don't want the Chixiao Sect to be destroyed, disband the Demon Slayer League from today and surrender to Wuzong."

Bai Lian's voice was calm and firm, without the slightest hesitation.

When Chi Yangzi heard this, his body shook violently, as if he was struck by lightning.

There was no more news from the jade slip, and Chi Yangzi stared blankly at the empty sky.

He also suddenly felt that the jade slip in his hand was as heavy as Mount Tai, as if it carried the fate of the entire Chixiao Sect.

Three days later, the atmosphere in the Demon-Slaying Alliance was solemn. Representatives from various sects gathered together, their eyes focused on the "letter of surrender" in Chi Yangzi's hand.

Chi Yangzi handed the "letter of surrender" to everyone with an expressionless face. For a moment, the whole room was silent, with only the sound of flipping papers.

Suddenly, a representative slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Chi Yangzi and cursing angrily:
"Chiyangzi, what do you mean by this? How can our Demon Slayer Alliance surrender to Emperor Wuzong? This is simply a great shame and humiliation!"

Soon after, other representatives echoed and accused Chi Yangzi of cowardice and betrayal.

"We have worked so hard to fight against Wu Zong for so long, are we just going to give up like this?"

"This is an insult to our Demon Slayer Alliance. We absolutely cannot accept it!"

Facing the accusations from everyone, Chi Yangzi simply responded calmly:

"This is not my personal decision, but the decision of Master Bai Lian... or even the entire Wu clan."

Hearing this, the representatives also fell silent.

Obviously, they were also shocked and puzzled by the Witch Clan's decision, but they were powerless to resist.

Seeing this, Chi Yangzi continued, "If you are dissatisfied with this decision, you can go and talk to Master Bai Lian."

After these words were spoken, no one present dared to say a word.

In the end, the only sound in the room was the rustling of pens as representatives from various sects signed their names on the "letter of surrender".

Chi Yangzi stood aside, watching all this quietly, his heart full of mixed emotions.

There was no expression on his face, only a hint of fatigue and despair in his eyes, as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment.

……

Wuzong Cave, the martial arts arena.

Xie Que stood high above the martial arts arena, his sleeves fluttering gently in the wind.

Next to him was Yu Shan.

At this moment, he was quietly watching the first batch of Wu clan disciples step into the cave.

Xuan Li and the other three had been waiting in front of the martial arts arena for a long time. They stood there and kept greeting their old acquaintances.

Today, their energy and blood are as vigorous as dragons, which is completely different from their past aura.

This also caused the Wu clan disciples to exclaim in amazement. They stopped and asked questions continuously.

Yu Shan also whispered:
"Senior, Master Bai Lian has already started practicing the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art. With his cultivation level, he should be able to break through to the level of destiny soon."

"This can be regarded as an example for other tribesmen."

“I believe that more and more people from the Creation Clan will switch to practicing martial arts.”

Xie Que nodded slightly, without much change in expression on his face:

"The Body Tempering Method was originally a branch of the ancient witch tradition, but our martial arts have progressed a little faster." (End of this chapter)
