Primordial Era: Me, starting with the Primordial Enlightenment Tree

The Eastern King Duke stood tall and imposing, his sharp gaze fixed on all the deities present.

"Hmph! I'm going to intervene in the conflict between your Lich and Demon races today!"

The Eastern King Duke cupped his hands in a fist salute towards the direction beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, and spoke coldly: "I am the head of the male immortals of the Primordial World, personally appointed by the Sage Hongjun. I am in charge of the stability of the Primordial World, the Four Seas and Eight Desolations, and I govern the rise and fall of countless living beings. All immortals of the Three Realms must obey my orders. Now, your Wu and Yao races are waging war on the Primordial World, disrupting the order of heaven and earth. If I were to sit idly by today, would I be worthy of the heavy trust and high expectations placed upon me by the Sage Hongjun?"

Upon hearing Dong Wanggong's words, Taiyi and Dijun's expressions immediately changed drastically.

His face turned cold and menacing.

This person actually brought up the sage Hongjun to suppress them.

This is clearly a blatant threat against them!

The reactions of the twelve ancestral witches were generally the same.

Although their witch clan has never respected the heavens or the earth.

However, they still harbored a deep sense of dread towards Hongjun, the first sage in the primordial world.

Since Houtu returned from listening to the Dao at Zixiao Palace, they have been clear that with the current strength of the Wu Clan, even if all twelve Ancestral Witches joined forces, they would have absolutely no chance of defeating Hongjun, the Sage.

Otherwise, they would have already completely annihilated the Eastern King Duke in front of them.

If it weren't for the fear and apprehension towards the Sage Hongjun...

After a while.

In order not to anger Sage Hongjun, Dijun could only suppress the raging anger in his heart and stared at Dongwanggong, saying, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Dongwanggong is determined to interfere in our affairs. In that case, our demon race will give Sage Hongjun face today and will stop fighting with the witch race."

Dongwanggong laughed loudly, "It is indeed Fellow Daoist Dijun who is wise and considerate of the overall situation. Now that the demon race is the number one race in the prehistoric world, it should lead all living beings in the prehistoric world to prosperity and build a peaceful and harmonious prehistoric world together. I am very pleased that Fellow Daoist Dijun can take this step back today."

Then, the Eastern King Duke turned to the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoists of the Witch Clan, could you perhaps take a step back today? Consider this: the Witch Clan is currently rising in power. If we were to truly wage a war to the death against the Demon Clan, you wouldn't have a guaranteed victory. Why not have the Witch and Demon Clan join hands, turn hostility into friendship, and together build a prosperous prehistoric world?"

Upon hearing what the Eastern King Duke said, the twelve Ancestral Witches almost burst out laughing.

However, now the Eastern King Duke has brought out the Sage Hongjun as his backer.

They could only suppress their anger and endure it for the time being.

Moreover, in this great battle, the Wu Clan has already collected the corpses of hundreds of millions of demon cultivators. In this battle, the Wu Clan has already made a fortune.

If we were to cease hostilities today, the Wu tribe would gain hundreds of millions of members out of thin air in less than half a month. Why not do something like this?

Zhu Rong wanted to yell, "Get out of here!"

But after being glared at fiercely by Dijiang, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"Hehe, since the Eastern King has already said so much, if our Wu Clan still doesn't know what's good for us, then we will be guilty of a crime against the primordial world. Very well, today our Wu Clan will cease hostilities."

Dongwanggong nodded slightly and said, "Very good, fellow Daoists, please disperse."

As soon as he finished speaking, Di Jun used his divine sense to transmit a message to the billions of demons in the prehistoric world, ordering a complete ceasefire for today.

Dijiang simultaneously used his divine sense to communicate with the billions of witches in the prehistoric world, ordering everyone to stop fighting against the demon race.

Seeing this, Taiyi could only reluctantly lead the group of powerful demons away from the place, without even asking for the corpses of the demons scattered on the battlefield.

After watching Di Jun and Tai Yi lead their entourage away, Dong Wang Gong bowed to the Twelve Ancestral Witches and said, "Fellow Daoists, this matter is now concluded. I shall take my leave."

"Fellow Daoist, please proceed with caution!"

The Eastern King immediately ordered his subordinates to set up an array to open a spacetime tunnel, using the tunnel to teleport back to the shores of the Eastern Sea in the primordial wilderness.

"Hmph, Hongjun!"

After the figure of the Eastern King Duke had completely disappeared into the distance.

Dijiang's expression immediately turned cold.

His face was filled with a chilling murderous intent.

The other ancestral witches had the same expression as him.

Immediately afterwards, countless Wu Clan cultivators excitedly carried the corpses of the demon race from the battlefield and sent them all into the Pangu Blood Pool. In just a short while, the Pangu Blood Pool was filled with extremely dense baleful energy, blood energy, and malevolent energy. One after another, blood-colored bubbles rose and surged from the bottom of the pool, giving birth to newborn Wu Clan infants.

On the other side...

On their way back to the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court headquarters, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi had cold, frosty expressions. The powerful demons accompanying them could clearly feel the two chilling auras emanating from the Demon Emperor and Demon King.

When they were halfway there.

Bang!

Taiyi was so frustrated that he suddenly raised his hand and slammed it down on a towering ancient mountain that stretched for thousands of miles below.

Boom...

In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled and the ground shook violently, shattering the surrounding void into pieces.

In the blink of an eye, the ancient divine mountain, which was tens of thousands of miles high, was smashed and flattened by a single palm strike. Countless living beings within the mountain perished under Taiyi's enraged palm strike.

But he didn't care at all.

This was because at that moment he was filled with immense anger and displeasure.

The group of demon gods accompanying Taiyi were all terrified by Taiyi's sudden action.

This sudden, unexpected palm strike was enough to scare the entire group of demon cultivators to death.

Di Jun raised his hand and patted Donghuang Taiyi on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Second brother, let's be patient for a while longer. When our demon race has fully integrated its strength and is of one mind, we will definitely be able to deal with Dongwang Gong completely."

Donghuang Taiyi nodded and said, "Yes, as long as the Purple Mansion is not eliminated, it will continue to hinder the development of our demon race. Also, those golden-armored warriors under the Purple Mansion are all quite powerful. It would be best if we could recruit them into our demon race. If they refuse to surrender, we should exterminate them all. Also, elder brother, why was Dongwanggong able to arrive so quickly?"

Di Jun turned and glanced at the Time-Space Demon King beside him, then asked, "Time-Space Demon King, you should know the reason for this, right?"

The Time-Space Demon King hurriedly bowed and said, "Your subordinate knows that the Eastern King has a top expert who is proficient in the laws of space. He can construct inter-domain space passages in the primordial world. Even if they are hundreds of millions of miles apart, they can be teleported here in an instant. Your Majesties Di Jun and Tai Yi, if you give your subordinate 100,000 years, your subordinate will definitely be able to build an interconnected network of time-space passages in various territories of the primordial universe."

Di Jun immediately said, "Very well, this matter will be entirely entrusted to you. If you need any rare treasures or cultivation resources, just go to the demon clan's treasury and take them. No approval or procedures are required."

Having received Di Jun's personal consent and full authorization, the Time-Space Demon King was overjoyed. This was a crucial responsibility concerning the future of the demon race. Once this matter was accomplished, his status among the demon race would be no less than that of Bai Ze, the demon god and the top strategist of the demon race.
