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

Chapter 52 The Ancestral Witches Arrive to Help!

Both Donghuang Taiyi and Jiang Heng stared in utter astonishment at the innate treasure, the Taiji Diagram, which, surrounded by auspicious light, spontaneously revived.

A white jade bridge appeared above Jiang Heng's head, with nine-colored auspicious clouds descending and its vast power filling the entire primordial land.

At this moment, the Tai Chi diagram revived. The power of the Chaos Bell, which could annihilate infinite space and time, was fixed by the power of the Tai Chi diagram, making it difficult to advance even an inch further.

Jiang Heng's expression was inscrutable. He secretly dispersed the power he had gathered in his body and silently gazed at the majestic and awe-inspiring innate treasure, the Taiji Diagram.

This situation was somewhat beyond Jiang Heng's expectations, and he was even more unable to fathom the thoughts of that Taiqing Sage.

Donghuang Taiyi also silently gazed at the innate treasure, the Taiji Diagram, muttering to himself with an inscrutable expression, "Taiqing!"

Donghuang Taiyi's confidence in extinguishing all of Jiang Heng's life force with a single blow was not without reason; he even went so far as to fully awaken the Chaos Bell for this purpose.

The innate treasure Taiji Diagram is naturally no weaker than the Chaos Bell, but the Taiji Diagram is not Jiang Heng's magic weapon after all; it was lent to Jiang Heng by Grand Master Xuandu.

Faced with the attack of the Chaos Bell, the Taiji Diagram can protect Jiang Heng, but it will not fully recover; these are two completely different concepts.

As long as the Taiji diagram does not fully recover, Donghuang Taiyi is confident that Jiang Heng will never survive the terrifying power of the Chaos Bell.

But at this moment, the innate treasure Taiji Diagram revived, and in that vast power, Donghuang Taiyi felt the holy might.

In other words, the Sage Taiqing has taken action, risking to offend the supreme demon Emperor Donghuang Taiyi in order to protect a human.

Of course, as a saint, and the Taiqing Saint who is the head of the Three Pure Ones, offending the demon race is not a big deal.

What puzzled Donghuang Taiyi most was why the Taiqing Sage would intervene in this battle and why he would protect the human before him.

With the fully restored innate treasure Taiji Diagram, who in the primordial world, besides the Dao Ancestor, could possibly kill Jiang Heng?

This was also what puzzled Jiang Heng. The fact that the Sage of Taiqing tacitly agreed to let the Grand Master Xuandu lend him the Taiji Diagram for protection already surprised Jiang Heng greatly.

When the innate treasure, the Chaos Bell, was fully restored, it even revived the Taiji Diagram, helping Jiang Heng block a fatal blow.

Jiang Heng is now truly unable to understand the Supreme Sage. Indeed! The Sage's thoughts are as deep as an abyss, making him truly unfathomable.

Perhaps only when Jiang Heng truly enters the realm of sages will he be qualified to guess the thoughts of sages.

Donghuang Taiyi stared at Jiang Heng with a gloomy expression. He was now in a difficult situation, but killing Jiang Heng was almost impossible.

"Hahaha! The supreme ruler of the demon race can't even defeat a human. How utterly shameful!"

Suddenly, a tremendous sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth. Everyone looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw eleven enormous figures approaching from afar.

The Ancestral Witches have arrived, and all of them except for Houtu are present. The one who spoke just now was Zhurong.

"Hmph! This is a feud between my demon race and the human race. What does it have to do with your witch race!" Donghuang Taiyi said in a deep voice.

"Can't I come and watch the show? Donghuang Taiyi, you've always been domineering and consider yourself a top expert. What? Now you can't even do anything to a human?"

"I think you'd better go back to your demon clan and stop making a fool of yourself here!" said Gonggong, the ancestral witch, with extreme disdain.

The other Ancestral Witches also echoed loudly, their expressions suggesting that Donghuang Taiyi had already lost face big time this time.

Those unaware of the details might think that Donghuang Taiyi was at a disadvantage and lost face in this battle.

"Hmph! If my witch clan is determined to cause trouble, then let's fight. Do you think my demon clan is afraid of you?"

However, now that one of your twelve Ancestral Witches is missing, the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is practically useless, and the Witch Clan is likely to be completely wiped out!

The Lich and the Demon races are natural enemies, and they fight to the death every time they meet. It would be a miracle if they could talk to each other properly.

Donghuang Taiyi's words instantly enraged the eleven Ancestral Witches, whose powerful auras erupted and their true forms were instantly revealed.

A dense aura of malevolence gathered between heaven and earth. The eleven Ancestral Witches stared intently at Donghuang Taiyi, while Zhurong and Gonggong were already itching for a fight.

"Hmph! If your witch clan wants war now, then let's fight!"

A mighty sound rang out, and another sun appeared in the heavens above. The Demon Emperor Jun appeared, bathed in the true fire of the sun.

With the arrival of the lich, the situation changed completely. The battle between Donghuang Taiyi and Jiang Heng instantly became a mere formality, and no one paid any attention to it anymore.

The Lich and Demon races are on the verge of war, and an earth-shattering battle could erupt at any moment. Compared to this, the feud between the Human and Demon races is nothing.

Of course, Donghuang Taiyi also understood that with the Taiqing Saint protecting Jiang Heng, he no longer had the chance to kill Jiang Heng.

If this battle drags on any longer, once Jiang Heng completes his transformation, he, the supreme ruler of the demon race, will become a laughingstock.

The arrival of the Wu Clan allowed Donghuang Taiyi to shift the conflict onto them. Compared to the Wu Clan, Jiang Heng was indeed nothing.

"Di Jun, you really can't sit still anymore!" Di Jiang Zu Wu looked at the Demon Emperor Di Jun and said in a deep voice.

"Since your Ancestral Witches have all come, how can I not come?" the Demon Emperor said in a handsome voice.

Countless creatures watched nervously as the Lich and Demon races drew their swords, the tragedies of the previous two Lich wars that had claimed countless lives still fresh in their minds.

If the war between the Lich King and the Demon King were to break out again, it would undoubtedly be an earth-shattering war, which would likely be a great calamity for the entire prehistoric world.

But the truly powerful know that this war will never happen, or rather, the Lich and Demon races will never actually go to war.

Firstly, both the Lich and Demon races are currently quietly accumulating strength, and neither will make a move unless they are absolutely certain of victory.

Secondly, when the Dao Ancestor stopped the war between the Wu and Yao tribes, he established that the Yao tribe would rule the heavens and the Wu tribe would rule the earth, and stipulated that the two tribes should not fight again within 100,000 years.

Now, the 100,000-year period has not yet passed, and the Wu and Yao races naturally dare not disobey the Dao Ancestor's orders and start another dispute on their own.

After a series of harsh words, just as many powerful beings had predicted, the Lich and Demon races eventually dispersed.

As for the battle between Jiang Heng and Donghuang Taiyi, no one mentions it anymore, and Jiang Heng will not insist on fighting Donghuang Taiyi again at this time.

Before leaving, Donghuang Taiyi glanced at Jiang Heng, a look filled with murderous intent. Clearly, Donghuang Taiyi had no intention of letting the matter rest.

With the protection of the Supreme Saint, Jiang Heng was naturally unable to kill him, but the Taiji Diagram could not remain on Jiang Heng's body forever.

There's plenty of time ahead. He's just a mere human. Once he loses the innate treasure, the Taiji Diagram, he'll be at his mercy.

After the Wu and Yao tribes dispersed, Jiang Heng approached Grand Master Xuandu and said, "Thank you for your help this time, fellow Daoist. Please take back your treasure!"

With a smile on his face, Grand Master Xuandu raised his hand and summoned the Taiji diagram, which immediately flew back from above Jiang Heng's head and entered Grand Master Xuandu's body.

"It's alright! The Taiji Diagram can only help you block the Chaos Bell at most. If your own strength is insufficient, you won't be able to contend with Donghuang Taiyi for that long!"

The more Grand Master Xuandu looked at Jiang Heng, the more satisfied he became. He even considered suggesting to his master that Jiang Heng join the Human Sect.

"In any case, if it weren't for your help, fellow Daoist, our human race would surely have faced calamity. Now that the demon race has retreated, we naturally have to thank you for your assistance!"

Jiang Heng's words were sincere. Regardless of what Grand Master Xuandu was like in the past, it was truly commendable that he used the Taiji Diagram to protect Jiang Heng.

"Fellow Daoist, you must still be cautious. Although the demon race has temporarily retreated, I'm afraid they will not let this matter rest!" Grand Master Xuandu cautioned.

"It's alright! The demon race shouldn't invade the human race again for a while. Fellow Daoist, why don't you continue to spread your teachings among the human race with peace of mind?" Jiang Heng said.

"That's excellent!" Grand Master Xuandu nodded in satisfaction and said.

Grand Master Xuandu naturally did not forget his purpose in coming to the human race; spreading the Dao was the most important thing to him.

Under Jiang Heng's arrangement, Grand Master Xuandu continued to preach among the human race, and countless human geniuses continued to study and improve diligently.

During this time, Jiang Heng made a special trip to the Wu tribe to thank the ancestral witches for their help. He then discussed matters with them for a long time before leaving.

The eleven ancestral witches were able to come to help this time entirely because of Jiang Heng; otherwise, the witch clan would never have cared about the life or death of the human race.

The Third Lich War will be a turning point in the prehistoric world, and it is of paramount importance to both the human race and Jiang Heng.

The fate of the Lich and Demon races is already sealed. Neither the Heavenly Dao nor Dao Ancestor Hongjun will allow the powerful Lich and Demon races to continue to exist.

Jiang Heng had already made arrangements in advance, but the final outcome was probably hard to change, and Jiang Heng could only try his best to secure the most favorable situation.

Although the battle with Donghuang Taiyi was somewhat unexpected, Jiang Heng had already laid the groundwork for his scheme.

When that battle actually arrives, this seemingly insignificant foreshadowing may turn into an unexpected surprise.

When he returned to the human race, Grand Master Xuandu was still preaching, and Jiang Heng began to listen to the teachings while secretly cultivating himself.

This time, with the help of Donghuang Taiyi, Jiang Heng has already conceived the prototype of the ultimate path, and the rest will be simple.

By constantly absorbing all paths and refining all methods, when the accumulation reaches its limit, that will be the moment when the ultimate path is truly born and matures.

By then, Jiang Heng should take the most crucial step and enter the realm of the Great Emperor, or more accurately, the realm of the Heavenly Emperor.

It's all just a matter of time, and Grand Master Xuandu will continue to preach among humans for another thousand years. During this period, the demon race should not make any major moves.

If Jiang Heng can peacefully survive for a thousand years, then his power will truly be fully developed. At that time, if he were to fight Donghuang Taiyi again, the outcome would be entirely different.

Time passed silently, and as the entire human race quietly cultivated, time flowed by like water.
