Honghuang: It makes sense that there are four Sanqing, right?

Di Jun's eyes were filled with greed as he activated the method recorded on the jade tablet he had obtained by chance, continuing to absorb the fortune.

The purple-gold aura flowed back into his body, and Di Jun tilted his head back and opened his mouth, his aura continuing to surge!

"What's going on?"

Xu Qing frowned. Di Jun's aura had far surpassed that of a typical peak Quasi-Saint, but it was different from that of a Saint. Although the intensity of his pressure was indeed approaching, his essence and purity were far inferior.

Another unexpected turn of events. Is this the source of Di Jun's confidence to start a war? But wouldn't it have been better if Hou Tu had just interrupted you?

"Playing tricks!"

Before Xu Qing could think it through, the Wu Clan's formation was broken, and Di Jun's aura continued to rise. Hou Tu knew she couldn't wait any longer, so she shouted and made a fierce move!

"Your Majesty, please be patient. I will fight you after I have fully absorbed the fortune."

Di Jun smiled coldly and pointed his Dharma image towards the sky.

Rumble...

Suddenly, the whole world shook twice—no, not the world, but the sun!

As the sun, the world's light source, sways, the light and shadow of the entire world also sway, making it look as if the primordial world is shaking.

Then, Emperor Jun's Dharma form pointed one finger to the sky, made a hand seal with the other, and slowly brought his arms together.

"The Great Sun Pagoda!"

Di Jun shouted, and the Sun Star moved with the movement of his Dharma Image finger, falling like a shooting star.

This is Emperor Jun's innate divine power, which allows him to manipulate the sun to attack and kill enemies, burning and destroying everything in its path.

However, this supernatural power requires extremely high cultivation level and cannot be activated until one reaches the Saint Realm. Emperor Jun had set up a grand formation beforehand and was also blessed by luck, which allowed him to barely use it.

Moreover, this technique comes at a great cost.

"If I destroy the sun, and the world is plunged into darkness forever, how can you bear the consequences?"

Houtu roared in anger, never expecting Dijun to be so crazy. Was he going to destroy the world?

But she could not stand idly by and watch the sun collide with the primordial earth. If this blow landed, then the entire Buzhou Mountain and the entire territory of the Wu tribe would be destroyed.

There will be... no living creature left!

Her brothers and her people are all here!

Di Jun's face was contorted with rage, seemingly in pain from forcibly activating the Great Sun Pagoda, yet he still spoke loudly.

"It's alright!"

"After this battle, I will be the sun!"

"I am the primordial chaos!"

He then glanced at the desolate land, a hint of apology in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by greed.

"Your Majesty, please hurry and stop the sun star. Otherwise, if it falls, the resulting karmic consequences will be no less than those of shattering the sun star."

Houtu ignored the crazed Dijun, stomped her foot, and then, a flash of yellow light appeared. Her speed was astonishing, and she instantly appeared in front of the Sun Star.

If I shatter this star, I will also be burdened with karmic retribution...

With her hands forming a hand seal, the Earth Mother's Qi emanated from beneath the Nine Netherworlds, arriving around Houtu in an almost incomprehensible way, disregarding the vast distance between the Nine Netherworlds and the Nine Heavens.

"Earth Mother Palm, go!"

Houtu made a gesture of lifting with both hands, and the earth's energy condensed into a pair of large, yellowish-brown hands, gently catching the falling meteor.

This method can preserve the Sun Star, but it will take more time than simply shattering it.

The entire battlefield is now divided into three parts.

Above the clouds, cracks reappeared on Di Jun's body, and purple-gold aura overflowed from his nine orifices and seven pores.

Di Jun's physical body was nearing its limit, enduring excruciating pain, but he did not scream; instead, he roared in silent fury.

On the earth, Xu Qing emptied his spiritual wine and medicine, and ordinary witches also offered their blood essence in order to help the twelve people in the formation recover their strength as soon as possible so that they could form a formation again.

Houtu, who was high above the nine heavens, was the most relaxed. The Earth Mother Palm did not consume much of her energy, but she was still anxious and looked down from time to time.

The sun was obscured, like a polar night, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. In this endless darkness, the three parties were racing against time, a race against death!

Time passed second by second. On Earth, only the weakest of the nine phoenixes had not yet recovered, while in the heavens, the sun was about to stop.

However, Di Jun has already completed the process of containment!

At this moment, his whole body was like a ball of light, and his figure could no longer be seen. His breathing was unstable, and even his every move caused Di Jun to feel excruciating pain.

Fortunately, the Star Array behind him helped maintain his body; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to stand up.

However, no matter how unstable his aura was, Di Jun's strength was already on par with that of a saint!

"Congratulations on my triumphant return!"

Di Jun staggered to his feet and, without using any magic, charged alone into the ranks of the Wu tribe's army.

Seeing this, the eleven ancestral witches of the witch clan had no choice but to form a battle formation, disregarding the fact that one person was missing, and barely managed to resist.

Damn it... I was a step too late!

Houtu bit her red lips with her silver teeth, somewhat regretting her hesitation. She should have just smashed it directly.

We can't delay any longer!

With a change of hand seal, the true meaning of reincarnation manifested around Houtu, forming a domain that rapidly spread until it enveloped the entire Sun Star.

A terrifying thing happened: the true fire that had been swirling around the sun for thousands of years suddenly became stronger, then weakened in the next instant, and then went out completely in the next instant!

Then, the already darkened core of the sun began to shrink, then the entire planet, and finally, it turned into a piece of raw carbonaceous rock.

Houtu gently blew a breath, and the sun star turned into ashes, completely annihilated, and disappeared into the world.

Below, Di Jun, who was breaking the formation, felt a pang in his heart. He looked up at the Sun Star, feeling somewhat lost and sad.

That was his home, his foundation. If he hadn't established the Heavenly Court, which changed his origins to some extent, he probably would have perished along with the Sun Star.

But he quickly recovered, ignoring the excruciating pain in his body, and once again struck the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, which was now reduced to only a thin membrane.

Bang! The great formation shattered in response, and the eleven Ancestral Witches, already wounded, collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

But in the brief moment between these palm strikes, Houtu finally arrived on the ground, her face extremely gloomy.

"You're nothing but a false saint, stop your rampage!"

With a loud shout, Houtu unleashed her divine form, behind which was the seven-colored image of the Holy Mother of Reincarnation.

"To measure without restraint!"

As soon as Houtu's precious technique was unleashed, the Dharma image immediately dissipated and then quickly reassembled, and then the speed increased until it stabilized after 129,600 cycles per breath.

One breath flashes 129.6 million times, which is the number of one Yuan Hui (a unit of time), and is called the Hui Liang (a unit of time).

With each flash, the Dharma image emits the divine light of the Six Paths of Reincarnation; whoever is touched by this divine light will lose ten thousand years of their lifespan.

Under the influence of Houtu's Reincarnation Domain, even saints cannot live forever; their lifespan is capped at 1.296 billion, a limit that no one can defy.

Those who die under the divine light will never be reborn, their true spirit will be extinguished, and the Great Dao will be unable to save them; this is called boundless suffering!

In other words, under ideal conditions, the power would be limitless, capable of killing six saints in a single breath!

Of course, Di Jun would not surrender easily. Using fortune as fuel and heaven and earth as a furnace, the ultimate solar fire surged endlessly, burning away the divine light.

Two Saint-level warriors unleashed their full power, battling to the edge of the world, causing the long river of time to tremble.

Fortunately, Nuwa intervened to control the aftershocks; otherwise, countless people might have been accidentally injured.

"Is it luck? Is that why Di Jun became so powerful?"

On the earth, Xu Qing led the remaining members of the witch clan toward the underworld while pondering, and murmured to himself.

"Cough...cough cough, Brother Xu Qing, I think I know something about Di Jun's situation."

Dijiang, the strongest of the eleven Ancestral Witches, was the first to awaken. He could no longer maintain his human form, and at this moment, his whole body was the color of gold paper.

Hearing Xu Qing's mutterings, Di Jiang, who was beside him, suddenly spoke up. He was also on his way to the underworld.
