If I let you lie low and remain the Dragon King, would you have unified the primordial world?

Chapter 140 The Heavenly Court is Born, Taiyi is Dead?

Above the nine heavens, the winds and clouds shift and change, and endless auspicious colors permeate the universe.

One by one, living beings rode the clouds to the destination, all eager to find out what was going on.

Ao Feng and Ao Bai also rushed over, afraid of missing this opportunity.

"As expected, the Heavenly Court has emerged. But I wonder if the demon race can now take it over?"

Ao Bai surmised that the Lich Wars had changed drastically, and the strength of the two sides was now completely different.

No one can be sure who will ultimately control the Heavenly Court.

In Ao Bai's view, the strength of the Wu Clan far surpasses that of before, and they have a greater chance of defeating the Demon Clan.

"If the Heavenly Court also falls into the hands of the Witch Clan, then there's really nothing we can do."

Ao Bai shook his head repeatedly, but in his opinion, the complete disappearance of the demon race was probably a plot against the Heavenly Court.

Now that the Heavenly Court has emerged, the demon race will inevitably gain the upper hand.

"Father, let's not show ourselves this time, let's see how things go."

Ao Bai discussed it with the old Dragon King in advance.

The demon race is becoming increasingly powerful, and the four demon emperors are determined to dominate the prehistoric world. Ao Bai has no intention of becoming their pawn.

"Alright, let's sit back and watch the show."

The old Dragon King nodded.

When they arrived, the light above the heavens was already dazzling, and boundless wonders permeated all directions.

Ao Bai concealed himself in the clouds, carefully observing his surroundings.

A powerful aura was hidden not far away, indicating that some creatures had arrived earlier and taken their positions in advance.

"These people probably all want to witness the war between the liches and demons."

Ao Bai glanced at it, then focused all his attention on the Heavenly Court.

Just like in the legends, that heavenly palace was a celestial palace in the clouds.

Countless palaces stand proudly above the heavens, supported by auspicious clouds, floating and sinking in the Milky Way.

A massive heavenly gate stood before them, surrounded by powerful innate protective arrays that perfectly protected the Heavenly Court.

This formation is incredibly powerful; if one were to enter the Heavenly Court from elsewhere, they would have to break through it first.

As long as there is a strong person guarding the main gate, it can achieve a situation where one man can hold off ten thousand.

It can be said that it is a place where one can both attack and defend, making it a truly excellent location.

"If the demon race can obtain this treasure land, they may truly be able to turn the tide in the future."

Taiqing sighed, feeling deeply moved by the magnificent Heavenly Court.

These divine courts in the clouds not only gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but also symbolize the supreme ruler.

Given Taiqing's mindset, he naturally longed to be able to reside in the Heavenly Court.

"Brother, where is the demon race? Could it be that they know they can't defeat the witch race, so they're continuing to hide?"

Tongtian asked in confusion.

Many creatures have already gathered here, and even the Twelve Ancestral Witches are rushing over, but there are no members of the demon race to be seen.

Logically speaking, since the sun is high in the heavens and very close to the celestial court, the demon race should have arrived a step ahead of us.

At this moment, the Ziwei Emperor had arrived, leading the army of Nine Heavens Star Gods, clearly intending to participate in the competition.

Ao Bai saw that the Lord of the Moon Star, Fairy Xihe, and Fairy Wangshu were also following Emperor Ziwei.

These three sisters came and went together as one, and now that they are all going into battle together, their purpose is obvious.

"Hahaha, the Heavenly Court has been born; it is only right that it should belong to my Witch Clan!"

The twelve ancestral witches arrived, leading their army.

The Wu tribe also saw the immense opportunity in the heavens, and naturally they would not easily give it up to others.

If the Witch Clan occupies the Heavenly Court this time, they will control all the key points in the heavens and on the earth. Only then can they be considered to have truly occupied the prehistoric world.

"Brother, the Heavenly Court has emerged, high above all, and it has always belonged to our Wu Clan. Today, it is rightfully ours to possess it."

The ancestral witches cheered, for they too deeply yearned for the Heavenly Court.

Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, stepped forward to examine it. The Heavenly Court contained a terrifying divine array. Once occupied, it would provide a tremendous advantage, allowing for easy advance and retreat. It was indeed quite impressive.

Ao Bai watched from afar. The Ancestral Witches had already stormed into the Heavenly Court, but the Demon Race was still nowhere to be seen. Anyone could see that the Demon Race had given up on this contest; they were afraid of the Witches.

"Ever since Di Jun fled the Sun Star, they have completely disappeared. Could it be that the demon race truly dares not fight against my witch race anymore?"

Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, was quite cautious. He was clearly no ordinary person to have become the First Ancestral Witch.

"Brother, the demon race is nothing but cowards. Once they saw that the 100,000-year period agreed upon by the Dao Ancestor had ended, they completely lost the courage to fight against us."

Zhu Rong, the ancestral witch, laughed loudly, saying that he had never thought much of the demon race.

Now that the demon race is gone, he considers it perfectly natural.

"Let's take over the Heavenly Court first!"

At the command of the Ancestral Witch Dijiang, the twelve Ancestral Witches stepped forward.

Ao Bai observed from a distance, his brows furrowed slightly, when suddenly a glint of light flashed in his eyes, as if he had guessed something.

The twelve ancestral witches stepped forward, and no one could stop them.

The Witch Clan is now too powerful, and even the Three Pure Ones have had to step aside.

The "Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" is also an insurmountable obstacle for the Three Pure Ones.

The gates of Heaven were opened, and the operating array emitted an even more magnificent radiance.

However, at this critical moment, the Ancestral Witch Dijiang suddenly roared:

"Charge!"

The twelve Ancestral Witches were of one mind and worked together in perfect harmony. When they heard the roar of the Ancestral Witch Dijiang, they were first startled, and then subconsciously activated their magic incantation. The "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" was instantly formed.

"Boom!"

Just as Pangu's figure descended, a terrifying attack landed directly on him.

An immense power erupted, causing Pangu's body to stagger and retreat from the Heavenly Gate.

At the same time, divine light shone brightly in the heavens, and endless starlight illuminated the Milky Way.

"Demon race!"

Not far away, the Purple Star Emperor exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

It turns out that the demon race had already arrived here and even entered the Heavenly Court!

The demon race lay low and deliberately went into hiding, all in order to lure the twelve ancestral witches into an ambush.

In order to avoid attracting attention, they did not even activate the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen" (Great Array of the Celestial Stars), but simply manipulated the protective array in the Heavenly Court.

It must be said that the demon race's move was truly ingenious.

If they wait until the Twelve Ancestral Witches enter the Heavenly Court before activating the great formation to surround and kill them, the Twelve Ancestral Witches will likely be completely annihilated.

Unfortunately, at the last moment, Emperor Jiang, the ancestral witch, inexplicably sensed the change. He immediately and decisively activated the great formation, blocking the demon race's fatal blow at the most critical moment.

"Dijiang, if I had activated the Zhou Tian Star Array just now, you would probably be dead."

Di Jun said that in order not to attract the other party's attention, Di Jun and the others deliberately dispersed the Zhou Tian Star Array, and even the array in the Heavenly Court was kept at a minimum operating level.

The Ancestral Witch Dijiang was too vigilant. His sudden retreat didn't give Dijun much time to react, so it was already quite good that he could use the Heavenly Court's innate protective array to attack.

"You despicable scoundrel, today I will make sure you die a horrible death!"

Pangu roared and strode forward, his divine axe slashing out fiercely.

Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches blocked the attack from the demon race, they were not in good condition and all had some injuries.

The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation was in full operation. At this time, the demon race no longer hid, and the Zhou Tian Star Formation and the innate protective formation in the Heavenly Court were activated together.

Boundless divine light illuminated the universe, and the three great formations collided violently.

"boom!"

This moment was earth-shattering.

All living beings were drawn to the sight, eager to see if the demon race, which had taken over the Heavenly Court, was qualified to confront the witch race head-on.

"I never expected the demon race to be so cunning."

Emperor Ziwei frowned slightly, unsure of what she was thinking.

Ao Bai smiled without saying a word. Of course, he hoped that the demon race could become stronger, so that both sides would have a chance to wear each other down.

Ao Bai and his group only need to watch the show from the shadows; in the end, they will be the biggest beneficiaries.

The collision of the three divine formations unleashed a terrifying pressure that tore apart heaven and earth, destroying everything in its path.

"Boom!"

An endless chaotic torrent surged forth, invading the primordial wilderness from the shattered spatial barriers, wantonly destroying all order.

The turbulent currents were terrifying; even a Great Immortal would have a hard time surviving if caught in them.

Everyone retreated, and the cultivators who had been hiding in the clouds had no choice but to reveal themselves and withdraw.

Ao Bai and Ao Feng retreated to the rear, where they also spotted the other hidden figures.

The Three Pure Ones: Jieyin and Zhunti, Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun, Kunpeng Ancestor, Dongwanggong and Xiwangmu.

All the powerful figures are here; they are clearly here to observe the situation.

After this attack, the attack of the "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" broke through the Heavenly Court's protective formation and cleaved into the "Zhou Tian Star Formation".

Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches did not possess Pangu's Axe, that ethereal divine axe remained invincible.

As the axe blade swept across, the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation" was utterly powerless to resist, and countless demon creatures were reduced to ashes, unable even to utter a wail.

"boom!"

The residual power of the Heaven-Opening Axe cleaved across the Heavenly Court, destroying one temple after another before finally dissipating.

In an instant, heaven and earth were torn apart, turbulent currents surged, and countless lives perished.

"puff!"

Emperor Jun, the Demon Emperor, coughed up a mouthful of blood; he was clearly also seriously injured.

Many cultivators looked over, all wanting to see how the battle was going.

"We've blocked their path!"

Emperor Jun's excited voice rang out. Originally, with hundreds of millions of demons dead, their morale should have plummeted, but at this moment, Emperor Jun's cheer invigorated all the demons, greatly boosting their morale.

They did indeed block the Witch Clan's "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation"!

That invincible, unrivaled formation was actually resisted by the demon race's "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Formation".

Each demon roared fiercely, seemingly demonstrating their extraordinary nature.

Although the Zhou Tian Star Array was teetering on the brink of collapse, it eventually began to operate again.

The light of countless stars was drawn in and laid out in the Heavenly Court as the "Great Array of the Celestial Stars," which seemed to have a great enhancing effect.

The demon race can gain many benefits from this.

Those star essences are rapidly replenishing and repairing the demon race's bodies.

The twelve ancestral witches were clearly very surprised to see this.

You should know that they have been studying the "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" for many years, and the power of this formation far exceeds that of the previous ones.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches were absolutely confident that they could defeat the demon race in one blow, but now it seems that they are evenly matched.

Seeing this, Ao Bai couldn't help but feel happy.

The demon race has relied on the power of the Heavenly Court, and the initial ambush on the Twelve Ancestral Witches injured them, weakening their fighting strength, which led to this situation.

Overall, the Wu tribe was indeed held back.

"Di Jun, stop being so arrogant! Take another hit from us!"

Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, roared. In his view, although the demon race had blocked their first attack, they would definitely not be able to stop them the second time.

The Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation can't be activated only once. Although the Ancestral Witches are not in good condition, they can still take action again without any problem.

As long as they can wipe out the demon race in one blow, then the Heavenly Court will still belong to their witch race!

"Charge!"

Di Jun roared, and all the demons immediately took their positions and began to operate the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen" once again. The endless stars of the nine heavens emitted a dazzling divine light and merged with the demons' formation.

"cut!"

Pangu roared, and the ethereal divine axe reassembled, unleashing a fierce strike aimed directly at the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array".

This time, the Heavenly Court's protective formation has been broken and can no longer assist the demon race in their defense, so they can only rely on the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen" (Great Formation of the Celestial Stars).

"The Ancestral Witches' condition is declining. They were already injured, and then they launched a full-force attack, which greatly depleted their strength. Their second attack is not as effective as before."

Ao Bai secretly analyzed that the Wu Clan's "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" was indeed powerful, but the backlash of this formation was equally terrifying.

After one attack, the ancestral witches' condition had declined significantly, and their attacks were much less powerful when they attacked again.

"Boom!"

In the blink of an eye, the great formations clashed once again.

Unsurprisingly, the demon race's "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen" (Great Array of the Celestial Stars) disintegrated this time, and many demons lost their lives in the process.

Even the Heavenly Court was shattered beyond recognition by this axe blow.

"Watch out, brother!"

As the main force, Emperor Jun was the primary target of the Ancestral Witches, so the blade of the Heaven-Opening Axe was aimed directly at him.

At this moment, the Zhou Tian Star Array is damaged, and the demon race has no one to rely on.

Seeing that the demon emperor Jun was about to be killed, no one dared to step forward to rescue him.

Even though Pangu's figure was extremely weak at this moment, and the shadow of the Heaven-Opening Axe was almost destroyed, no one dared to really step forward.

Only Donghuang Taiyi spread his wings and flew high, transforming into a streak of fire that shot into the sky, urging the Chaos Bell to fly over.

Di Jun was now completely enveloped by the divine axe, and he had no way to escape.

At this critical moment of life and death, Donghuang Taiyi flew over in an instant. He forcefully knocked Dijun away, and then the Chaos Bell collided with the terrifying shadow of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe!

"when!"

A single bell tolls, shaking heaven and earth; boundless divine power stirs the ten directions.

The Heaven-Opening Axe was unstoppable, striking down in one blow.

Heaven and earth collapsed, and the universe shattered!

Everything around was being destroyed, and blood rained down from the sky, turning into a torrential downpour of scarlet blood.

Ao Bai stared wide-eyed at the center of the battle, wondering if Donghuang Taiyi was dead or not.
