Honghuang: Oh no, the Witch Clan Chief has lost his mind!

This phantom pain in Hongjun's body accompanied him for countless years; he grew accustomed to the pain.

Until the day Tianqi arrived in the primordial world.

That day, he was practicing diligently when suddenly he felt a sharp pain in the scar on his chest, as if an axe was twisting inside the wound.

At the time, he only thought it was a recurrence of an old injury, and after some deduction, he didn't come to any conclusions, so he didn't think much of it.

But now... he understands everything.

"So it was you..." Hongjun murmured.

"No wonder I felt a chill when your Ancestral Witches were first born..."

No wonder I felt uneasy when your cultivation level skyrocketed...

No wonder I felt fear when you attained the Primordial Chaos Realm...

"Now everything makes sense!"

So it was your axe and the Great Dao of Power that Pangu left in my wound...

It's a shared origin and resonance!

As Hongjun was speaking, he suddenly burst into laughter.

I laughed so hard tears streamed down my face.

"Pangu, Pangu! How cunning you are!"

Even after they've already fallen, they still left behind a backup plan!

Let an anomaly end this outsider's reign!

Amid laughter,

Tianqi's axe was about to strike Hongjun's old scar.

But suddenly, the apocalypse strangely changed from cutting to slashing!

"Pfft—!"

There was no earth-shattering sound, only a soft slurry, as smooth as a knife cutting tofu.

The giant axe from the chaos struck precisely the old wound on Hongjun's chest.

However, this time Apocalypse was not a circular cut, but a vertical cleavage.

The main principle is to leave no way out, just in case!

Seeing that Apocalypse suddenly changed from cutting to splitting,

Hongjun's resigned gaze instantly turned to utter terror, and he screamed incoherently.

What?!

Didn't you promise to reopen my old wounds and give me a quick death?!

Why did you split me vertically?!

"Why did you lie to me?!"

Upon hearing Hongjun's terrified cry, Tianqi's mouth stretched from the corner of his head to the back of his head in a wide grin.

He was so excited that he increased the pressure on his hands by three points.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Finally, I've fallen for it...!"

"I knew you old codger was trying to fake your death and escape!"

"Back then, the Father God wasn't ruthless enough, and his strikes weren't precise enough."

Today, I will put an end to you completely!

"To save you from being such a scourge, wreaking havoc on the primordial world!"

The words were spoken, and the axe fell!

The old wounds on Hongjun's body contained the power of Pangu accumulated over billions of years.

It instantly resonated with the Dao of Power within the Apocalypse Axe.

break out!

"boom--!!!"

Hongjun's sacred body, with old and new wounds piled up, began to disintegrate from a dazzling cross-shaped wound!

"No...no...I'm not reconciled!"

"I, Hongjun, was born in chaos, experienced the calamity of creation, and witnessed the birth, evolution, and rise and fall of the primordial world..."

Hongjun's voice resounded throughout the chaos.

"I am in harmony with the Heavenly Way, in control of order, in setting rules, and guiding the great calamity..."

"I deserve half the credit for the world's current state."

"And you...and you..."

As he was speaking, he suddenly froze.

He originally wanted to condemn the ancestral witches for their inhumane actions, placing himself on a moral high ground.

But after recalling the actions of the ancestral witches in the past, he suddenly couldn't continue speaking.

The Dragon-Han Great Tribulation Ancestral Witch absorbed the evil energy of heaven and earth to kill ferocious beasts.

During the Lich Wars, the Ancestral Witches opened up the Netherworld for the reincarnation of all souls.

Although the Ancestral Witches didn't make any special contributions during the Investiture of the Gods calamity, they didn't cause any trouble either.

During the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, the Ancestral Witches further eliminated the potential threat of resentment towards the Buddha...

Thinking of all this, Hongjun looked at his gradually fading body.

I glanced once more at the primordial wilderness, then at the Purple Cloud Palace, then at...

The Heavenly Way gradually returned to calm.

"Oh well! Never mind, never mind!"

I didn't expect you to even know about my true form!

My grand plans, spanning billions of years... have ultimately come to nothing...!

After Hongjun finished speaking, his heart died, and his holy body completely dissipated.

It transforms into the most primordial energy of the Heavenly Dao, returning to the universe.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun has fallen!

Heaven and earth grieved, and blood rained down; this time, no one could bring him back to life.

Because the Heavenly Dao no longer recognizes his position as the Heavenly Dao Saint!

But what puzzled the beings of the primordial world was...

This rain of blood was mixed with golden dew.

It was as if the heavens had been freed from their shackles and reborn!

Tianqi saw Hongjun dissipate, and then put away his axe.

He stared at the spot where Hongjun had vanished, remaining silent for a long time.

He was also considering Hongjun's words at that moment.

He was indeed an anomaly in this primordial world, but he himself was unsure whether he was Pangu's backup plan!

Ever since Tianqi sensed that Pangu's true form seemed to possess consciousness during the last time the Wu tribe was established,

He never saw or witnessed anything else unusual, to the point that he had almost forgotten about it.

Now that Hongjun has brought it up again, he's a little unsure!

He was a transmigrator, a soul from another world. By chance, he fused with a fragment of the Heaven-Opening Axe, which led him to become the thirteenth Ancestral Witch of the Witch Clan and embark on the path of proving his Dao through force to defeat Hongjun.

Hongjun's guess might be right, but it doesn't matter now!

After all, Hongjun has already perished. When the Wu Clan takes over the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao will surely be reborn.

The primordial world will also usher in true freedom.

As Tianqi predicted, after Hongjun completely dissipated,

The backlash from Heaven gradually subsided.

With the assistance of the Primordial Guardian Array, the damaged world barrier gradually recovered to its original state.

The chaotic energy was forced back, the cracks healed, and the primordial world became more stable.

The collapsed illusory Thirty-Three Heavens began to reshape itself, returning to its original form.

This time, it is no longer the Heavenly Realm controlled by Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao.

Even Buzhou Mountain, which was knocked down by Hongjun's palm, began to slowly grow again under the influence of Houtu's power.

Although it will take a long time to restore it to its original state, at least there is hope for recovery.

Seeing that the matter was temporarily resolved, the saints gathered around Apocalypse.

The group of saints seemed somewhat embarrassed at this moment.

In such a high-level battle, even though they were Heavenly Dao and Earthly Dao Saints, apart from holding up the scene at the beginning, they basically didn't play any role in the later stages of the battle!

"It's finally over." Dijiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's almost done, but it's not completely over yet."

Apocalypse looked towards the Thirty-Three Heavens.

"Now that Hongjun has fallen, the Heavenly Dao is operating on its own and inevitably loses its humanity."

Without humanity, it would truly be against the will of Heaven, which is not a good thing for the current prehistoric world!

Therefore, someone is needed... to wield the authority of Heaven and guide it onto the right path.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Who will go? That's a serious question!

Lao Tzu, the Primordial One, has now fled to Chaos.

Jieyin and Zhunti have already perished, leaving only their true spirits immortal. Nuwa remains neutral for now...

Moreover, it allows these original Heavenly Saints to wreak havoc on the Heavenly Dao once again.

Then wouldn't all the efforts of the Ancestral Witches have been in vain?!

As for the remaining sages, they are either from the Earthly Path, the Human Path, or the Ancestral Witches of the Witch Clan.

Everyone here now has status and position.

It seems like it wouldn't be appropriate for anyone to go!
