Primordial Era: Oh no, the Witch Clan has produced a genius!

At this point, Tongtian was not the same person he would become later, so it was reasonable for him to say that now.

The green lotus seemed to understand Tongtian's words, and it shook even more violently. As the green lotus shook, a wave emanated from its body.

In the next instant, the weather in the heavens changed drastically.

The once clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, and rumbles of thunder came from the clouds. A terrifying aura emanated from the thunderclouds and headed straight for the lotus flower.

Upon seeing this, the Three Pure Ones and the others quickly retreated, moving away from the area shrouded in thunderclouds. This was a tribulation of transformation, and they dared not provoke it.

It's not that they're afraid to provoke it; ordinary tribulations of transformation are nothing to the Three Pure Ones. But this is the tribulation of transformation of the Creation Green Lotus, and the Three Pure Ones don't have the ability to block it. Besides, they don't want to help the Creation Green Lotus block the tribulation at all.

The Three Pure Ones never intended to help the Creation Green Lotus withstand the tribulation; in fact, they hoped it wouldn't survive.

Because if the Creation Lotus fails to transcend its tribulation, they will be able to obtain a supreme treasure, which is very tempting for the Three Pure Ones who currently do not have any spiritual treasures.

On the other side, Xuan Tian also noticed the thunderclouds overhead, and he immediately turned to look at Qiang Liang and Xi Zi.

"The Creation Lotus cannot be harmed. Its spiritual essence is extremely important to us, so please help the Creation Lotus withstand the tribulation," Xuan Tian said.

The two nodded and, without saying a word, rushed into the valley and stood on top of the Creation Lotus.

Sensing the Ancestral Witch above her, the Creation Green Lotus emanated gratitude, which Xuan Tian noticed and shook his head.

"You're celebrating too soon. Even if I shielded you from the tribulation lightning, you still won't be able to take human form," Xuan Tian thought to himself.

"Not good!" Upon seeing Qiangliang and Xizi, the Three Pure Ones frowned instantly. They instinctively wanted to go up and drive Qiangliang and Xizi away, but were stopped by Xuantian and the others.

"Fellow Daoists, this treasure is destined for my Ancestral Witch. Please return." Xuan Tian said calmly to the Three Pure Ones.

"Xuantian, you've gone too far!" Tongtian roared at Xuantian.

Xuantian still had a good impression of Tongtian, so he forgave Tongtian's rudeness and did not hold it against him.

Seeing this, Yuanshi also started cursing: "Xuantian, the Creation Lotus was discovered by us, the Three Pure Ones, first. If you know what's good for you, leave now, or don't blame us for being impolite."

"Have you been reading too many brainless novels?" Xuan Tian's eyes widened after hearing Yuan Shi's words.

Do you want to see what you're actually saying?

"You're too kind? Just the three of you? Besides Qiang Liang and Xi Zi, we have a total of eleven people on our side, ten late-stage Daluo Golden Immortals and one peak Daluo Golden Immortal. You, Yuan Shi, actually dare to say such things as being impolite to us? You're really brave!"

"I'd like to see just how impolite you are!" Dijiang said calmly, arms crossed.

Just as Xuan Tian and the others were facing off, the first lightning tribulation struck down, but it was easily blocked by Qiang Liang and Xi Zi.

The Three Pure Ones' eyes twitched at the sight. They hadn't expected the Ancestral Witch to be so strong, able to withstand the lightning tribulation unscathed.

"Leave now. I won't make things difficult for you since you are both descendants of Pangu," Xuan Tian said with a smile.

But the Three Pure Ones didn't seem to appreciate it at all. Seeing this, Xuan Tian stopped pressuring them. "Since you want to watch, then watch a little longer. Anyway, in the end, this Creation Lotus won't belong to you."

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Creation Lotus, perhaps due to the intervention of Qiang Liang and others, the already powerful Transformation Lightning Tribulation directly transformed into the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning. The oppressive force originating from the Heavenly Dao caused the Ancestral Witches to involuntarily furrow their brows.

next moment.

Strands of purplish-black lightning, as thick as an adult's arm, lashed down from the thunderclouds, heading straight for Qiang Liang and the others. Their power was greater than any of the previous lightning tribulations.

Upon seeing this, Xuan Tian's expression changed slightly. He truly hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Hou Tu patted Xuan Tian's arm at this moment, indicating that there was no need to worry.

Then they saw Qiangliang and Xizi reveal their true forms as Ancestral Witches, directly withstanding the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning. They even went so far as to use the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning to refine their bodies.

Because during the great war between the three races at the beginning of creation, the Ancestral Witches cleansed the primordial world and purified their physical bodies with merit, they are now much stronger than the Ancestral Witches of Xuan Tian's previous life.

"Brother, the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning has an excellent body-refining effect!" Just then, Qiang Liang suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing Qiang Liang's words, Di Jiang and the others' eyes lit up, and they flew directly to Qiang Liang's side.

Sensing the extra energy, the lightning tribulation paused for a moment, then turned blood red, but this was nothing to the Ancestral Witch.

However, this terrified the Three Pure Ones, who wondered if the Ancestral Witch had gone mad.

"Big brother, what should we do next?" Tongtian looked anxiously at the Creation Lotus, which was being protected by the Ancestral Witches.

"This treasure is destined for us. Even if the Ancestral Witch intervenes, as long as it survives the tribulation, we can ask for its return, and the treasure should come with us," Laozi said after thinking for a moment.

"But......"

"There are no 'buts'. If this treasure hadn't survived the tribulation, that would have been fine. But once it has, it will become a living being. Even if the Ancestral Witch tries to keep it, she won't be able to." A proud look appeared on Laozi's face.

Rumbling--

As the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning fell, ripples appeared in the surrounding void, but none of them could shake the figures of the Ancestral Witches.

As the final bolt of lightning struck, the thunderclouds reluctantly dissipated in the sky, and then a radiant ray of light descended towards the Creation Lotus.

But at that moment, Xuan Tian moved. He vanished from his spot in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already under the transformed radiance. He waved his hand and put it away, which made the Creation Lotus sway even more violently. Waves of doubt and indignation emanated from the lotus.

However, Xuan Tian ignored him completely. He came to the Creation Green Lotus again and said something indifferently.

"Your destiny is not to take human form. Without us, you would never be able to take human form. Your destiny was already determined when I became the Ancestral Witch."

After Xuan Tian finished speaking, a surge of magical power immediately rushed towards the Creation Green Lotus. A few breaths later, everyone heard a faint scream. Clearly, the Creation Green Lotus's newly formed intelligence had been erased by Xuan Tian.

"Sister Houtu, this pool water seems to be the Three Lights Divine Water, we can't waste it, I'll have to trouble you again, sister." After doing all this, Xuantian said to Houtu with a smile.

"No problem!" Houtu nodded, then activated the Law of Earth to uproot the entire pond along with the surrounding land, preparing to take it back to the Pangu Temple.

"Stop! This treasure was found by us three brothers!" Yuanshi was getting anxious when he saw this.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, it seems you still haven't learned your lesson. Back in Zixiao Palace, I said that all treasures and opportunities belong to the virtuous. We also said when we came here that this treasure is destined for me, understand? Don't say anything more." Xuantian looked at Yuanshi and said calmly.

"Fellow Daoist Xuantian, I'm afraid your actions are inappropriate?" Laozi, who had been silent until now, spoke up calmly.
