The people of the primordial era ruled the heavens and earth.

"When did you obtain this formation from the Eastern King Duke?" Houtu looked at Huangtian with a puzzled expression: "How come I don't know anything about this?"

"I wouldn't have bothered you with something so trivial," Qin Tian waved his hand. "I obtained it directly from the Eastern King Duke through soul searching."

Soul Searching is a hidden form of torture in the cultivation world, applied deep within the soul, regardless of whether you are a fully-fledged, all-powerful being or a clueless little beast.

Once the soul is searched, it's basically half ruined; the pain and suffering involved are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Hearing that Huangtian had used such methods, Houtu felt relieved.

Soul searching is indeed fast. With Huang Tian's cultivation level, he can obtain everything he wants to know in just ten breaths.

"Come with me to see this so-called second-generation demon clan alliance!"

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. This is humanity's first battle, and I do not wish to lose it."

"Okay." Houtu nodded, understanding Huangtian's meaning.

Instantly, his cultivation level increased, and he led Huang Tian towards the Second Generation Demon Clan Alliance's base, Ni Shen Peak.

At this moment, on the Reverse God Peak, Mo Jue had completed the final arrangements.

When Huang Tian arrived, he saw wave after wave of demons descending from Nishen Peak, their eyes bright and their fighting spirit high, clearly different from the demons of Beiming.

He couldn't help but sigh, "It is said that the demon race led by Di Jun is both the beginning and the peak."

"But now it seems that's not entirely true!"

A strange light flashed in Houtu's beautiful eyes. She hadn't expected that Huangtian would be so optimistic about the second-generation demon alliance.

You should know that in the primordial world, the first generation is universally recognized as the strongest.

The beginning is the peak.

Further on, there are one or two outstanding individuals, all of whom were cultivated by the entire clan.

Whether it's the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan, or the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans, so far, no one has emerged who, through their own abilities, has astonished the people of the primordial world and whose name has been widely circulated.

After thinking it over, Houtu led Huangtian forward and arrived above Mojue's cave.

At this moment, the two stood in front of Mo Jue, but Mo Jue was completely unaware of it, as if the three of them were in two different worlds.

Mo Jue kept comparing the information about the human race with the situation of his own side.

A hint of admiration appeared in Huang Tian's eyes: "The Qilin clan still has a foundation. If this child does not die, the Qilin clan will forever be known as a powerful clan in the prehistoric world."

Upon hearing this, Houtu was somewhat puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "From what I've observed, the young master of the Qilin clan is merely passable. Is he worthy of such high praise?"

"I'm not looking at his strength," Huang Tian shook his head. "It's his attitude."

"As a leader, there are very few people in the primordial world who can do everything personally, be cautious yet bold, like him."

"It's like the Eastern King Duke; he has power, but lacks a sense of reverence."

"Once they gain power, they become arrogant and forgetful."

"If he had even half of what he possessed, this young master of the Qilin clan wouldn't have fallen into my hands and ended up being annihilated, body and soul."

"I have a feeling that you want to subdue him and use him for your own purposes." As she spoke, Houtu's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she looked directly at Huangtian.

"I do want to subdue him." Huang Tian nodded and said without any hesitation, "I just don't know what the Qilin clan thinks."

Huang Tian's honesty pleased Hou Tu greatly; a smile crept across her face. "Does it matter?"

"Anyone who isn't stupid knows how to choose."

"No," Huang Tian shook his head, "that's not how it is."

"Some people can never be second best."

"Just like the First Dragon, the First Phoenix, and Emperor Jun, you can defeat them, or even kill them."

"But you absolutely cannot make them submit to you."

Houtu nodded thoughtfully: "I understand, but there's one thing I don't understand."

"Among the human race, Qin Feng and Qin Yue are both quite good. Why are you so fixated on this young master of the Qilin?"

"It's not about being fixated on him alone." Huang Tian shook his head. "I wish there were ambitious people like Mo Jue who dared to take action; the entire prehistoric world would be full of them."

Houtu frowned, somewhat confused by Huangtian's thinking, and couldn't help but retort, "Are you just bored?"

"Isn't it good for the human race to be dominant? Why have so many rivals? Are we just going to fight amongst ourselves every day?"

"You don't understand the human race." Huang Tian smiled slightly. For the human race, being the only one standing out is not a good thing.

"A hundred flowers blooming, with one reigning supreme among them—that is the truly suitable environment for the development of humanity."

"Why do you say that?" Houtu looked puzzled. "I think the human race is quite good!"

"Peace-loving, kind, and averse to fighting, they are far superior to most races."

Huang Tian smiled, offered no explanation, and walked out of the cave: "Let's go, there's nothing more to see."

"Go back and get some rest, and prepare for the upcoming great battle."

……

"Mo Jue, listen to me carefully."

"If things are not going to work, you must not act recklessly; you must listen to me."

Jiuying was afraid that Mojue would act recklessly and get carried away during the battle, so she tried to persuade him before the battle started.

"Don't worry, I know. I'm more sensible than you." Mo Jue didn't want to say anything more to Jiu Ying. After replying, he flew into the sky and headed to the front line.

Seeing this, Jiuying had no choice but to follow closely behind.

At the same time, I prayed frantically in my heart that nothing unexpected would happen.

The war between the two races was uneventful; they simply drew their lines and went straight to battle.

Unlike the Lich Wars, the top echelons of both races possess world-destroying power.

Neither the massive human army led by Qin Qiong and Qin Yu nor the second-generation demon alliance centered around Mo Jue possessed the strength to win this great battle.

Therefore, tactics become the key to defeating the enemy.

Seeing the battle line stretching for millions of miles, Mo Jue's eyes flashed with divine light as he scanned the heavens and earth with his divine sense, quickly understanding his own side's layout.

Indeed, everything was being done according to his own customized tactics. Mo Jue smiled and turned to look at the human race.

Coincidentally, Qin Qiong and Qin Yu also turned their gazes toward the second-generation demon alliance.

Their gazes met, and an invisible clash of their spirits began.

Qin Qiong and Qin Yu were not pedantic people, and they immediately realized that this was an opportunity.

So they joined forces and unleashed their Martial Arts Heavenly Eye together.

boom!

Mo Jue felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and involuntarily took a few steps back, his face turning pale.

"Oh no, something's happened!"

Seeing this, Jiuying, who had followed all the way, exclaimed in surprise and quickly flew to Mojue to support him. At the same time, she quietly injected her demonic power to help Mojue stabilize his mind.

Mo Jue was only attacked mentally, and because he retreated immediately, he was not seriously injured.

With Jiuying's help, after a few moments of recuperation, he calmed his internal energy and returned to normal.

"Thank you for your help."

"No need, just remember your promise." Jiuying waved his hand: "Never fight to the death with the human race."
