Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 28 Houtu finally reincarnates!

Xuanming Ancestral Witch returned to the Witch Clan with endless resentment. She couldn't understand why her sister Houtu wanted to go out alone with a human.

Does this mean that Xuanming is no longer Houtu's most beloved younger sister? Is her position going to be replaced by Jiang Heng?

Jiang Heng and the Xuanming Ancestral Witch traveled together, aimlessly wandering across the primordial land, exploring all sorts of beautiful scenery.

The two traveled for a full fifty years, from the west to the East China Sea Ruins, from the far south to the far north.

There weren't many words exchanged, only unintentional sadness, marvels at the wonders of nature, or a knowing smile.

Along the way, Jiang Heng saw many unknown aspects of Houtu, the ancestral witch, or rather, a more human side of her.

When they see the aurora borealis, the ancestral witch Houtu will cheer enthusiastically, marveling at the wonder of nature that could create such a beautiful sight.

When she sees beautiful flowers wither, Houtu, the ancestral witch, will be saddened and may even shed tears.

When Jiang Heng recounted various legends from later generations, Houtu, the ancestral witch, would listen with great interest and keep asking about the sequel to the story.

In Jiang Heng's original impression, Houtu Ancestral Witch was always a dignified, majestic, and extremely rational ancestral witch.

Jiang Heng had never seen Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, let down all her guard and show such a girlish side.

Since his rebirth in the primordial world, Jiang Heng has always been cautious and prudent, taking it upon himself to make the human race strong, and has made countless efforts for this.

Bearing the weight of the entire human race on his shoulders, Jiang Heng dared not relax in the slightest; in fact, every moment, his mind was filled with endless calculations.

This time, however, Jiang Heng simply shed all his burdens, stopped thinking about the future of humanity, and stopped engaging in endless calculations.

Jiang Heng knew in his heart that this might be the last time he indulged himself, and he didn't know how many years it would be before he had such an opportunity again.

Jiang Heng and Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, got to know each other along the way, and before they knew it, the distance between them had been greatly shortened.

Perhaps it's just a casual glance, without any words, that allows one to understand the other's meaning silently.

However, even the most wonderful journey must eventually come to an end. Before they knew it, the two had arrived near the Netherworld Blood Sea.

"I've finally returned to this place, and I've been very happy during this time!" Houtu Zuwu said with a smile as she looked at Jiang Heng.

Arriving at the Netherworld Blood Sea was no coincidence. Although Jiang Heng and Houtu Ancestral Witch's journey was aimless, Houtu Ancestral Witch never forgot her mission.

"Me too!" Jiang Heng's voice was somewhat low.

Although he knew this day would come, and that it was Houtu Ancestral Witch's destined fate, Jiang Heng was also clear that he was powerless to change anything.

Should Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, not be reincarnated? But Jiang Heng knew that Houtu's reincarnation might have been due to many unavoidable circumstances, but it was her own choice.

Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, had long been aware of the fate of the Witch Clan. If she were to reincarnate, the Witch Clan would still have a glimmer of hope.

Regardless of the circumstances, Houtu was the ancestral witch of the Wu tribe, and she was willing to sacrifice everything for the Wu tribe.

If the human race were to face such a choice one day, Jiang Heng, as the ruler of the human race, would probably make the same choice as the ancestral witch Houtu.

Moreover, the belief of Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, in reincarnation is her guiding principle and an inescapable responsibility as a descendant of Pangu.

Even without the Wu Clan and without so much helplessness, Houtu Ancestral Witch would still choose to reincarnate.

Therefore, from beginning to end, Jiang Heng never advised Houtu Zuwu not to reincarnate.

Houtu, the ancestral witch, has her own convictions, and no amount of persuasion can change her beliefs; on the contrary, it will put Houtu in a dilemma.

But is Jiang Heng really going to do nothing? Not really. Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, has her own choices, and so does Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng had been preparing in advance to inform Houtu Zuwu about the future of the Wu clan and some matters concerning the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

If we also include Zhen Yuanzi, there will be no shortage of experts present when Houtu Ancestral Witch transforms into a being of reincarnation.

The twelve Ancestral Witches, Zhen Yuanzi, and Jiang Heng will be present when Houtu Ancestral Witch transforms into Samsara. Fourteen Quasi-Saint level powerhouses will also be present.

This is a power capable of shaking the entire primordial world; even saints must treat it with utmost caution.

Jiang Heng's planning of all this was not without reason, which allows for some adjustments to the situation.

A small difference can lead to a huge error! Sometimes, even the slightest difference can result in drastically different outcomes.

"Thank you for accompanying me on this journey. During this time, I seem to have come to understand the various emotions of the human race."

"What an incredible race! Under your guidance, they will surely become an extraordinary force!" said Houtu, the Ancestral Witch.

"It is my good fortune to be able to embark on this journey with you, fellow Daoist. This will be a journey I will never forget in my life!" Jiang Heng said.

"Having wasted so much time, I have no regrets. It's time for me to fulfill my own mission," said Houtu, the Ancestral Witch.

Upon arriving near this Netherworld Blood Sea, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, regained her rationality and became the majestic Ancestral Witch she once was.

As Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, spoke, countless powerful auras approached from afar and soon arrived in front of the two.

All eleven other ancestral witches of the witch clan were present, along with countless other great witches. Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earth immortals, also arrived as agreed.

The gathering of fourteen quasi-saint level experts was already earth-shattering, but the Witch Clan still felt it wasn't enough, so they sent even more Great Witches.

In an instant, a powerful aura soared into the sky, drawing the attention of countless powerful beings in the primordial world to the Netherworld Blood Sea.

Countless powerful beings were speculating about what the Witch Clan was up to. Were they about to start another war with the Demon Clan? Or was there some treasure hidden in the Netherworld Blood Sea?

The demon race reacted instantly. Donghuang Taiyi and the demon emperor Jun personally took charge, and the ten demon gods gathered to closely monitor the movements of the witch race.

Within that Netherworld Blood Sea, there was a powerful being who, upon seeing the strong individuals gathering outside the Netherworld Blood Sea, was filled with panic.

As a powerful being born from the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Netherworld Blood Sea has always been regarded by the Styx Lord as his foundation.

The saying "The sea of ​​blood will never dry up, and the River Styx will never die" has been widely circulated in the primordial world.

Moreover, the Asura race, created by the Lord of the Styx, has always lived in the Netherworld Blood Sea, constantly devouring wronged souls to strengthen itself.

But now, a large number of experts from the Witch Clan have gathered near the Netherworld Blood Sea. What are they planning to do? Are they here to cause trouble for him, the Lord of the Styx River?

Although the Lord of the Styx was infamous, he knew his place and had never provoked the Witch Clan.

But upon seeing the Twelve Ancestral Witches and countless Great Witches, the Styx Master still felt somewhat uneasy; this lineup was truly terrifying.

Although it is said that "as long as the Blood Sea does not dry up, the Styx River will not die", if the Twelve Ancestral Witches attack at the same time, it is questionable whether the Netherworld Blood Sea can still exist.

While the Lord of the Styx was trembling with fear, he recalled all the Asuras, genuinely worried that some foolish Asura might accidentally provoke the Witch Clan.

"Sister Houtu, have you thought it through? If you're unwilling, then forget it! No matter what happens, your brothers will take care of it!"

The ancestral witch Dijiang, the leader of the twelve ancestral witches, stepped forward and spoke softly to the ancestral witch Houtu. The other ancestral witches also looked at Houtu with anticipation.

"Brothers, there's no need for further words. More than a hundred years ago, I made my decision. These hundred years have been enough!" said Houtu, the Ancestral Witch.

"Sister Houtu, you must think this through!" Xuanming Ancestral Witch said with a sorrowful expression.

The other Ancestral Witches also looked at Houtu Ancestral Witch with sorrowful expressions, but seeing Houtu Ancestral Witch's firm gaze, any words would be pale at this moment.

"Xuanming, don't be willful anymore. It's time for you to grow up!" said Houtu, the Ancestral Witch.

"Alas! Alright, there's no point in saying more. This time, my Wu clan will go all out to protect my sister Houtu!" said Dijiang, the Ancestral Wu.

"Take care, brothers. I entrust the Wu Clan to you all from now on!" Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, bowed to the other Ancestral Witches and said.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Houtu Ancestral Witch took a step and entered the Netherworld Blood Sea.

Houtu, the ancestral witch, looked at the countless wronged souls and said, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, you shall return to your place of rest!"

However, there is no need for pain and sorrow; death is the cycle of life. From this day forward, the soul will return to the earth!

The Dao never despises, this is the primordial chaos. I will transform myself into the six realms so that you will not disappear, nor fall into depravity.

From this day forward, I vow to protect you life after life, so that every soul in this world may have the opportunity to be reincarnated!

Then, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, took a step forward, reverting to her true form as an Ancestral Witch. Her towering body, reaching ten thousand feet in height, raised her head to the sky and proclaimed:

"I hereby declare to Heaven and Earth that I am Houtu, who once witnessed the war between the witches and demons, which caused widespread suffering and unjust death in the primordial world."

In the future, I vow to transform myself into one of the six realms of reincarnation: the realm of gods, humans, asuras, animals, hungry ghosts, and hell beings, so that all beings may have a place to reincarnate!

The Six Paths of Reincarnation! Stand!

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire primordial world trembled, and countless living beings sensed it and all looked in the direction of the Netherworld Blood Sea.

In an instant, the heavens trembled, and endless merits fell from the nine heavens, flowing into the body of the Ancestral Witch Houtu.

At this moment, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, finally broke the restrictions of the Witch Clan and miraculously gave birth to a primordial spirit, and her cultivation also reached an incredible level.

Not a saint, yet surpassing a saint! At this moment, Houtu was no longer an ancestral witch, but had become an incredible being.

An incredible power erupted from Houtu's body, and a netherworld began to emerge, but her body began to slowly dissipate.

Just as her body was about to disappear, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, turned around with a smile on her face and looked at Jiang Heng, leaving her most beautiful side to him.

Jiang Heng suddenly took a step forward and arrived in the boundless sea of ​​blood. Since Houtu Ancestral Witch had already transformed into reincarnation, it was time for her to take action as well!
