Primordial Era: I, Emperor Donghua, establish the Immortal Court

Chapter 39 The Lich War, Newcomers Join the Group

Wild world.

The grand celebration banquet in Heaven was drawing to a close.

Meanwhile, Lao Tzu finally established the Human Religion among the human race. The weather roared, and merit flowed into his body, proclaiming Lao Tzu as the second Heavenly Saint after Nuwa.

Upon receiving this news, the other four disciples of Hongjun—Tongtian, Yuanshi, Zhunti, and Jieyin—followed suit.

The first two founded the Censorate and the Elucidate schools, while the latter two jointly founded the Weston school.

The Three Pure Ones each established their own sect, and thus enjoyed considerable merit. They were all saints below the second level of the Corpse-Severing Realm, possessing formidable strength.

Jieyin and Zhunti, on the other hand, jointly established the religion and enjoyed less merit. Moreover, before becoming saints, they had only progressed to the first level of the new Three Corpses Method. Among the five great saints, they can be said to be the two weakest, even Nuwa is not as good as them.

However you look at it, these two are saints, above all living beings in Honghuang.

With several of them becoming saints, it is tantamount to directly announcing that the era of saints has arrived!

Several powerful figures, all bearing the imposing presence of scholars, were scattered throughout the vast wilderness, intimidating numerous great beings.

The pressure brought by the sage also prompted many forces to fight back, unwilling to submit and begin to cause trouble in various ways.

The Demon Court is a prime example.

The pressure on Donghuang Dijun and his group is the greatest among all the powerful beings.

Because they offended the Eastern King!

Currently, apart from Hongjun, he is the strongest being.

Although the Eastern King is currently holding back his troops, they don't know when it will erupt.

Under immense pressure, they immediately decided to launch the second Lich War!

If they successfully conquer the Wu tribe, they will be able to unify the prehistoric world, and at that time, they will be able to gather boundless fortune to prove their Dao.

In this way, they had a chance to save their lives.

"Last time I suffered a loss in the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Witch Clan. After observing the Chaos Bell for a long time, I have already comprehended the Zhou Tian Star Formation from it. This time, I refuse to believe I will fail again!"

Donghuang Taiyi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, full of confidence.

The demon army began to prepare, and finally selected 360 demon gods, all of whom were at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal, to guard the Zhou Tian Star Array. Among them, the three strongest were the Quasi-Saint Emperor Dong Di Jun, who had already severed two corpses, and the newly appointed Demon Emperor Fu Xi.

This power, apart from the saints, can be said to be unstoppable in the primordial world.

Therefore, the Demon Court's confidence can be considered understandable.

Unfortunately, they encountered the witch clan.

The twelve Ancestral Witches are all at the Quasi-Saint level!

Moreover, its Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is no weaker than the Zhou Tian Star Formation!

Soon, the Demon Court and the Witch Clan clashed, their battle becoming a fierce contest that attracted the attention of the entire prehistoric world.

If nothing unexpected happens, the outcome of this great battle will determine the fate of the primordial world.

The Heavenly Court disdains to compete for the destiny of heaven and earth. Therefore, the victor among these two forces will be able to control the two realms of the primordial world and use this destiny to become a saint.

Ultimately, after tens of thousands of years of war between the Demon Court and the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan was the first to succumb, their immortal energy waning, and they were on the verge of defeat.

"How is this possible? These Twelve Ancestral Witches are so terrifying."

Emperor Dong and Emperor Jun exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with despair.

This time, it's a desperate gamble. If they fail, the Wu Clan probably won't give them a way out and will definitely eliminate them completely to prevent future troubles.

Although Fuxi was loyal and righteous, and valued loyalty and righteousness, he had already done more than enough for Donghuang Dijun and the other two. Now that the Demon Court was about to be defeated, he had to consider leaving.

However, since his sister is a primordial saint, the Wu clan will likely give him some face and let him leave.

As time slowly passed, the Zhou Tian Star Array emitted a loud rumbling sound!

The Pangu true form, transformed from the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, smashed down with an axe! It shattered instantly.

All 360 Great Luo Demon Gods in the formation coughed up blood; some were dead, some were wounded, and most of them suffered heavy losses.

Meanwhile, the three demon emperors, Donghuang Taiyi, Dijun, and Fuxi, all turned pale; their immortal power was exhausted and they would not recover for a while.

"Today! This is the day you've been waiting for!"

Di Jiang, the leader of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, snorted coldly, and the Pangu Shore cleaved down again, heading towards Ruo Dong and Emperor Jun.

The two closed their eyes tightly, sinking into despair.

In the blink of an eye, three large hands grabbed at the same time, firmly holding down the Pangu Axe and making it impossible for it to move at all!

"The Three Pure Ones!?"

The twelve ancestral witches frowned and gazed into the past.

As expected, the Three Pure Ones, with their ethereal and otherworldly demeanor, slowly approached.

"Gentlemen, there's no need to fight anymore."

Lao Tzu spoke first, and then the Three Pure Ones exerted their strength together, directly pushing the Pangu Axe back.

A great uproar erupted in the wilderness!

This is the power of a sage. Even Pangu, who created the world, could not be a match for the three of them unless he was a real person or one of the twelve ancestral witches who were quasi-sages.

This move can be seen as a strong message to the Wu Clan: today, the three of them are determined to protect the Demon Court!

Of course, they also have their own selfish motives. The current three-way balance of power is what they want to see most. Moreover, the Demon Court and the Heavenly Court are enemies and can mutually support each other. As long as the Eastern King Duke does not set aside his status and take action personally, the Heavenly Court will find it difficult to destroy the Demon Court.

The twelve Ancestral Witches exchanged glances, daring not to speak out in their anger.

However, they were sensible enough to remove the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation.

"Very well, since the three sages have spoken thus, we have nothing more to say. We'll let these two scruffy birds go this time, but if there's a next time, we'll kill them without hesitation. Don't blame us then, sages!"

The Twelve Ancestral Witches snorted coldly and led their Witch Clan members back to their territory.

Thus ended the Second Lich War, and the Lich Court suffered another setback.

Inside the Heavenly Court.

The Eastern King Duke sat on the mountain watching the tigers fight, thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Heh, interesting. You Three Pure Ones really have an open secret."

"However, you overestimate the Demon Court and underestimate the might of Heaven."

"You think a mere demon court can interfere with my Heavenly Court? What a joke!"

"The Three Pure Ones' scale is nothing more than this."

The Eastern King sneered, his understanding of the situation perfectly clear.

"As expected, they were guided by Hongjun to find the opportunity to attain enlightenment. How utterly foolish, incredibly foolish!"

"The destiny of this world is clearly in your hands, yet you insist on handing it over to the Lich and Demon races, wasting precious time."

"When you discover that the Lich and Demon races are not destroyed and the human race cannot rise up, the fortune will not flow to the three of you. At that time, you will probably regret it too late."

The Eastern King smiled wryly and played with the magical treasure in his hand.

He knew perfectly well what was going on.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Three Pure Ones are protecting the demon race now. Once they discover the mystery of this mysterious destiny, they will probably be eager to wipe out the demon race as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, in the chat group.

Dongwanggong suddenly received a system notification.

A new member, 【三分归元气】, has joined the chat group.

"The Threefold Return to Origin?"

The Eastern King was surprised, and then his divine sense quickly discerned the truth.

"The Overlord of the Storm Riders world, huh? That's quite interesting."

"My group is usually full of good guys, I never expected the villain to make an appearance this time."

"But now that you're in, there's no good or bad; it all depends on your fate."

The Eastern King smiled slightly, a hint of interest in his eyes.
