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

Chapter 30: The Pregnancy of a Divine Child!

Without the control of the Ancestral Witch Houtu, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which was not yet fully established, began to show signs of collapse, which was naturally something Jiang Heng could not allow.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation are not only extremely important to the entire prehistoric world, but also the foundation upon which Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, attained enlightenment. Under no circumstances should they be allowed to collapse.

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, please lend me a hand!" Jiang Heng said loudly.

Amid Jiang Heng's roar, Zhen Yuanzi did not hesitate at all, flying directly into the Netherworld Blood Sea and throwing out the Earth Book.

The Earth Book fell into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the rich essence of Earth Qi surged out, continuously merging into the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Jiang Heng also did his best to activate the Immortal Bell, striving to stabilize the Six Paths of Reincarnation with the profound rules of the Great Dao.

With the combined efforts of Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which should have been gradually collapsing, miraculously stabilized.

The Earth Book is formed from the membrane of the earth and is naturally endowed with the essence of the earth. It is an innate spiritual treasure with extremely strong defensive capabilities.

More importantly, under Zhen Yuanzi's control, the power unleashed by the Earth Book is actually very similar to the original power of Houtu Ancestral Witch.

Houtu is the ancestral witch of earth among the twelve ancestral witches. She is born with the power to control the earth, which naturally complements the power of the Book of Earth.

Therefore, Jiang Heng went to Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain to use the opportunity of Hongyun Patriarch to allow Zhen Yuanzi to lend a helping hand at this time.

Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for Jiang Heng alone to stabilize the collapsing Six Paths of Reincarnation.

This series of interconnected steps was the result of Jiang Heng's painstaking planning, which ultimately bought Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, a moment of time.

It was this precious moment that gave Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, the opportunity to master the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.

Even if one cultivates the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to its fullest extent, the best one can achieve is to become an Emperor, which in the primordial world is at most equivalent to the Quasi-Saint realm.

The current Houtu Ancestral Witch is a perfect saint, so it is naturally not difficult for her to cultivate the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to perfection.

However, mastering the Devouring Heaven Demon Art did not actually enhance Houtu Ancestral Witch's strength in any way.

The reason Jiang Heng forced Houtu Ancestral Witch to cultivate the "Devouring Heaven Demon Art" was simply to use this technique to give Houtu Ancestral Witch a glimmer of hope for survival.

Just as Jiang Heng was working hard to stabilize the Six Paths of Reincarnation, everything that happened in the Netherworld Blood Sea was seen without missing a single detail by the powerful beings of the Primordial World.

Countless powerful beings marveled at Houtu's magnanimity and appreciated the great merit of her act of transforming herself into a being of reincarnation.

Of course, the only ones who were probably gloating were the demon race. The demon emperors Jun and Donghuang Taiyi immediately thought of the impact of this matter.

In the primordial world today, the Wu and Yao races are undoubtedly mortal enemies. The two races have reached a point where they are irreconcilable and must fight to the death.

For the demon race, what they fear most is naturally the Twelve Capital Gods and Demons Formation composed of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

However, now that Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, is going to reincarnate, doesn't that mean that the Twelve Ancestral Witches are no longer complete?

Without all twelve Ancestral Witches, how can the complete Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation be formed? This would be an unparalleled opportunity for the demon race.

The Demon Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were already considering whether to gather the powerful demons and engage in an unprecedented war with the Wu Clan.

After thinking for a moment, the Demon Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi abandoned this option, as the timing was simply not right.

Houtu's transformation into the cycle of reincarnation is a great merit to heaven and earth, and all living beings in the primordial world should be grateful for the great merit of the ancestral witch Houtu.

If the demon race were to make a move at this time, it could indeed catch the witch race off guard, but it would inevitably provoke widespread anger.

Although the demon race is powerful, there are still six sages in the primordial world. No matter what, the demon race cannot act recklessly.

However, the demon race could not let such a good opportunity pass by, and began to prepare for war in full swing. The third war between the Lich and the Demon race was probably not far away.

Everyone was witnessing the birth of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but what happened next was beyond the expectations of these powerful beings.

Why did the Ancestral Witches assemble the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation? Was it to help the Ancestral Witch Houtu open the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

When Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, appeared as a perfect saint, even the six saints were dumbfounded. They never expected that this could happen.

The demon emperors Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were terrified. If they had made a move just now, wouldn't they have been facing a perfect saint?

At that time, it won't be the demon race annihilating the witch race in one fell swoop, but rather the witch race taking the opportunity to wipe out the demon race completely.

Even the Dao Ancestor of Zixiao Palace, upon witnessing this scene within the Six Paths of Reincarnation, was tempted to intervene several times.

However, the Six Paths of Reincarnation is not yet fully formed. If the Dao Ancestor were to make a move at this time, it would likely lead to unpredictable consequences.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation are extremely crucial to the primordial world, and equally vital to Dao Ancestors who have already attained Dao, allowing no room for error.

Therefore, after much deliberation, the Dao Ancestor refrained from taking action and instead chose to closely monitor the changes within the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

When Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi made their move, they shocked countless powerful beings in the prehistoric world.

Others may not recognize Jiang Heng, but Donghuang Taiyi had once fought Jiang Heng from a distance, so naturally he could not forget Jiang Heng's aura.

However, when Jiang Heng made his move, Donghuang Taiyi recognized him at first glance, after all, Jiang Heng's five extraordinary phenomena were too conspicuous.

It was because he recognized Jiang Heng that Donghuang Taiyi became even more convinced that Jiang Heng was actually a hidden master of the Wu tribe.

That powerful physical body was simply too conspicuous. In the primordial world, apart from the Wu Clan, who else could possess such a powerful physical body?

The addition of a powerful Quasi-Saint level expert to the Wu Clan forced Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi to reassess the Wu Clan's strength.

The demon race couldn't recognize that Jiang Heng was human, but Jiang Heng couldn't hide it from the Six Sages and Dao Ancestor Hongjun; they could tell at a glance that Jiang Heng was human.

The six saints reacted differently to the emergence of a quasi-saint level powerhouse among the human race; some were indifferent, while others pondered it in secret.

The six sages all knew that after the witch and demon races, the human race would flourish, and it was only natural that strong people would emerge from the human race.

Even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun didn't care. Although he had merged with the Dao and knew the future development trend of the Heavenly Dao, he was not omniscient or omnipotent after all.

Seeing that Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi had taken action to stabilize the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Dao Ancestor Hongjun even breathed a sigh of relief.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation is far too important. As long as the Six Paths of Reincarnation can be opened smoothly, any minor accidents will be of no importance to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Only the Sage Taiqing seemed to be deep in thought. As the leader of the Human Religion and having preached among the human race for a thousand years, the Sage Taiqing had a deeper understanding of the human race.

While Jiang Heng was stabilizing the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Supreme Saint Taiqing had already keenly sensed that the cultivation method Jiang Heng was practicing was not the one he had passed on to the human race.

This is why the Sage Taiqing seemed to be deep in thought. As for what he was really planning, only he himself probably knows.

Even with Jiang Heng and Zhen Yuanzi working together, maintaining the stability of the Six Paths of Reincarnation was still extremely difficult, and it was impossible for them to maintain it for much longer.

Fortunately, it didn't take Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, long enough to cultivate the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to its peak.

At the moment the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was perfected, the Six Paths of Reincarnation trembled violently, and countless rays of light condensed.

Amidst the dazzling rosy light, a divine embryo, still in the process of being conceived, slowly emerged before disappearing into the depths of the six realms of reincarnation.

"It's finally done!" A smile finally appeared on Jiang Heng's face.

In the next instant, a powerful force erupted from the Six Paths of Reincarnation, blasting Zhen Yuanzi and Jiang Heng out of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

At the same time, the eleven Ancestral Witches also withdrew from the Six Paths of Reincarnation under the influence of that power, and the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation dissipated.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation began to tremble violently, and under the watchful eyes of countless people, the Six Paths of Reincarnation finally began to truly take shape.

The six realms of existence—the realm of gods, the realm of humans, the realm of asuras, the realm of animals, the realm of hungry ghosts, and the realm of hell—appeared first.

Subsequently, the underworld began to take shape, with the Bridge of Helplessness, the Terrace of Longing for Home, and the Ten Courts of Yama appearing one by one.

The moment the Six Paths of Reincarnation took shape, Houtu Ancestral Witch's body completely dissipated, and most of her primordial spirit fell into slumber. However, a wisp of her primordial spirit transformed into an old woman and fell to the side of the Bridge of Helplessness.

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. I hope we will meet again someday!"

The moment Houtu Ancestral Witch's body dissipated, a familiar voice rang in Jiang Heng's ears from the darkness.

Jiang Heng's gaze fell upon the old woman by the Bridge of Helplessness, who should be the famous Meng Po of later generations.

Meng Po was formed from a wisp of Houtu Ancestral Witch's primordial spirit, but she had no memories of Houtu Ancestral Witch, so naturally she could not have any impression of Jiang Heng.

But at this moment, Meng Po seemed to sense Jiang Heng's gaze and looked at him, her face full of confusion.

In a daze, Jiang Heng seemed to see that familiar figure again, and murmured to himself, "There will definitely be a chance!"

As the Six Paths of Reincarnation took shape, the wronged souls in the Netherworld Blood Sea were immediately summoned by an invisible force and flew towards the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

From then on, these wronged souls will have the opportunity to be reincarnated, and the primordial world will be truly perfected.

However, the current Six Paths of Reincarnation doesn't even include the Ten Kings of Hell. To truly perfect it, it will probably take a lot of effort.

However, Houtu's transformation into the cycle of reincarnation was intended to protect the Wu clan. Once the Wu clan enters the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Six Paths of Reincarnation will soon be able to function normally.

After witnessing the true formation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, some powerful beings in the primordial world keenly sensed its importance.

Some powerful beings have already set their sights on getting a share of the pie. For example, those two saints in the West are probably already plotting the cycle of reincarnation.

Jiang Heng temporarily suppressed his emotions and took out the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd, and the remnant soul of the Red Cloud Ancestor appeared.

After the Six Paths of Reincarnation were truly formed, Ancestor Hongyun was given the opportunity to be reincarnated and start anew.
