The Witch-Slaying Sword, unleashed!

Chapter 78 The Witch-Slaying Sword, unleashed!

At the foot of East Kunlun Mountain.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable had already set up a great formation at the foot of Kunlun Mountain to test people's character and aptitude. Anyone of virtue who wanted to join the Chan Sect could enter and challenge the formation.

All the immortals of the primordial world readily entered the battle.

After all, by joining the Chan Sect and becoming a disciple of that sage, one can not only learn the Jade Purity Immortal Techniques, but also roam freely between heaven and earth.

More importantly, with the sage as their backing, their lives were also guaranteed by a solid foundation.

What they didn't expect was...

The illusion array set up by the Primordial Celestial Venerable is incredibly powerful. Those who enter the array are tested on their character. Most of the millions of virtuous people (who possess merit) stop here, and only less than a thousand people have entered the second level.

The second level is a test to examine each person's background and qualifications.

Finally, out of about a thousand challengers, only thirteen people succeeded in breaking through the formation by relying on great perseverance, wisdom, and good fortune.

Among these thirteen people was the Burning Lamp Daoist, one of the former Three Thousand Purple Cloud Guests, who was now at the peak of the Great Luo realm.

And Guang Chengzi, Ju Liusun, Wenshu Daoren, Puxian Daoren, Cihang Daoren, Daoxing Xingzhe, Lingbao Shangren, Qingxu Daoren, Taiyi Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren, Chijingzi, and Huanglong Zhenren.

These twelve individuals had varying levels of cultivation, including True Immortals, Golden Immortals, and Taiyi Golden Immortals.

Fortunately, the ranking system did not prioritize cultivation level, but rather determined who could break the formation the fastest.

Yuanshi was also very satisfied with them; their aptitudes were all above average, and they had all met his requirements for disciples.

However, Yuanshi seemed somewhat surprised by the arrival of the Burning Lamp Taoist.

Burning Lamp is a manifestation of a primordial spiritual coffin in the universe. Because his true form always carries a spiritual lamp, he calls himself the Burning Lamp Taoist.

After experiencing the three lectures at Zixiao Palace, his cultivation level had now reached the peak of the Great Luo realm.

It's not slow, but it's not fast either, and it can't compare to the top gods in the primordial world.

To this day, there is only one innate spiritual treasure, the Coffin Lamp, but it has not been able to be separated from the corpse.

After all, he was someone who listened to the Dao in Zixiao Palace and was a well-known figure in Zixiao Palace. If we rashly accepted him as a disciple, wouldn't that be going against the Dao Ancestor?

Therefore, Yuanshi had no choice but to say, "Fellow Daoist Randeng, you and I were both among the three thousand mortals of Zixiao in those days. It would be inappropriate for me to accept you as my disciple!"

Just as the Daoist Ran Deng showed signs of anxiety, Yuan Shi continued.

"Since you have come, Fellow Daoist, I, Yuanshi, must not be impolite. How about this: you become the Vice Leader of my Chan Sect, and treat me with the respect due to a half-master. You can then listen to my Chan Sect's teachings and manage the sect's affairs for me. What do you say?"

Guang Chengzi and the others standing nearby were also caught off guard.

They were all surprised to find that among those who were fighting alongside them, there was someone with such a background.

Upon realizing he could stay, Ran Deng immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, teacher!"

They were looking at Guang Chengzi and others.

It was discovered that apart from Chi Jingzi, Yu Ding Zhenren, and Huang Long Zhenren, the rest were all human cultivators.

Beyond praising the outstanding people and the blessed land of humanity, I felt boundless joy.

However, in addition to taking in thirteen people, Yuanshi also took in about a hundred outer disciples.

Among them, the Antarctic Immortal and Yun Zhongzi are both at the early stage of the Great Luo realm and serve as outer sect stewards, assisting Burning Lamp in managing the affairs of the Chan Sect.

The selection process for disciples by Tongtian was not as complicated as that by Yuanshi.

He simply stood above Golden Turtle Island, preaching the Shangqing Immortal Method. Anyone who came to listen could break through using the Shangqing Immortal Method and enter the Jie Sect.

Those who break through the first realm become outer disciples, those who break through the second realm become inner disciples, and those who break through the third realm become true disciples.

Thus, after this lecture, tens of thousands of people broke through to the next realm. Among them, those with high cultivation included Zhao Gongming, the Three Immortals of the Three Immortal Islands, and the Four Saints of the Nine Dragons Island.

Therefore, they all joined the Jie Sect and became outer disciples of the Jie Sect.

Only seven people broke through to the second realm, and they were made disciples and assigned by Tongtian to serve as the Seven Immortal Attendants.

Only four people broke through the three realms; they were the true disciples of the Jie Sect.

There are four people: Duobao Daoren, Jinling Shengmu, Wudang Shengmu, and Guiling Shengmu.

Among them, the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit and the Holy Mother of Wudang are of the human race.

Such a grand event as the three religions accepting disciples naturally wouldn't be complete without the presence of the two Western Saints.

However, given the poverty of the West, despite their clamor to this day, they have only managed to recruit a few disciples with exceptional talent, while they have taken in batches of disciples with less than ideal abilities.

Since their Heavenly Dao Saint attained enlightenment, they had gathered together at Zixiao Palace for a while.

Under the explanation of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, they also understood that the gods were about to enter the prehistoric world in a large number.

Therefore.

After accepting disciples, the four religions preached to them daily, answered their questions, and provided them with various cultivation resources in the hope that their cultivation would increase rapidly.

This laid a solid foundation for resisting the invasion of the Protoss.

The two Western Saints looked worried whenever they thought about this.

What should we do?!

Before the West had even flourished, it directly clashed with the Seven Royal Courts of the Divine Court. With the Sages unable to directly intervene, how could their disciples withstand the invasion of the Divine Race?

Moreover, the same applies to Pangu and the Three Pure Ones in the East.

Just after they finished accepting disciples and gave a few sermons, they received news that the Divine Court and the Sea King's Court were making a large-scale entry into the Eastern Continent.

Not only that, the Dragon Clan, one of the original three races, also made a high-profile announcement that they would join the Divine Court and seize the prehistoric water system territory for the Divine Court.

In an instant, dragons responded throughout the entire Eastern Continent and the Northern and Southern Continents.

The numerous forces in the primordial world were like scattered sand; how could they possibly withstand the invasion of the Divine Court?

Soon, the saints turned their attention to the demon race and the human race.

The Wu Clan didn't even consider it. Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, had already joined the Divine Court system along with the Six Paths of Reincarnation; how could they possibly obey them?

The demon race is different from the human race.

Humanity may not be numerous, but its elites are the core of every faction, even the three religions.

In addition, there was the existence of Nuwa, and the grudges between the Wu and Yao tribes.

They are naturally the best pawns for the sages.

However, the only problem is the feud between the demon race and the human race. How can this be resolved?

The Heavenly Palace of Lingxiao.

The Heavenly Emperor Di Jun summoned many demon saints to gather together, and the dozens of people naturally discussed the matter of the gods settling in the prehistoric world.

Di Jun harbored resentment towards the gods for deceiving him into sending his children out of the prehistoric world.

Originally, there was no direct grudge between the gods and demons, but the matter of the ten golden crows pierced Di Jun's heart deeply.

The Witch Clan and the God Clan are now suspected of forming an alliance, along with the Human Clan.

In an instant, their demon race became the target of public criticism.

Previously, he only cared about the Wu tribe, but now things are different.

As the human race grew stronger, it also established connections with many forces in the prehistoric world.

If the human race were to be wiped out at this point, then the demon race would also become the target of attacks by many forces in the prehistoric world.

After all, with some humans joining the three religions, they no longer dared to commit genocide.

If they anger the Sage, then their demon race will truly be doomed; the world will be their enemy, and that will be their future.

After all, a sage is no ordinary person; he is capable of influencing all aspects of the prehistoric world.

At this moment, Bai Ze solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the gods have launched a large-scale invasion of the prehistoric world and their participation in the war between the gods and demons is a foregone conclusion. Now we should be thinking about how to resist the combined forces of the gods and demons!"

Everyone looked grave upon hearing this.

After all, with the successful attainment of enlightenment by the Ancestral Witch Houtu, the advantage that their demon race had with the sage Nuwa would no longer exist.

Furthermore, next to the earth is the Supreme Emperor of Heaven who founded the Earth Gods.

Thinking of this, everyone's expressions turned grim.

Upon seeing this, Di Jun said softly, "Our primary enemy is still the Witch Clan, followed by the God Clan, and then the Human Clan!"

"As for the matter of the divine beings who have attained enlightenment, Goddess Nuwa has already made it clear that those who have attained enlightenment will not participate in the battles; their opponents are each other. Therefore, we do not need to worry about the matter of those who have attained enlightenment."

At this point, he looked heavily at the desolate land.

"Kunpeng!"

Upon hearing this, Kunpeng, who was resting with his eyes closed, stood up, bowed, and replied, "Your subject is here!"

"How is the forging of the Juwu Sword progressing?" Di Jun asked in a deep voice.

The other demon saints also suddenly realized what was happening and all looked at Kunpeng.

"Your Majesty, this is the Sword of Slaughtering Witches!" As he spoke, a dark spirit sword filled with boundless malevolent energy and resentment appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"After eighty-one days of painstaking work, I have finally completed the forging of the Witch-Slaying Sword!"

Di Jun took the Slaughtering Witch Sword, flicked his finger on the blade, and the sword's ringing sound was filled with all sorts of vicious curses from countless vengeful human souls.

Those with low cultivation levels who hear of it risk going into qi deviation.

Upon hearing this, the two female demons behind Di Jun, who were holding fans, were filled with murderous intent and, without any regard for consequences, picked up their spirit fans and slapped Di Jun on the head.

however.

Faced with this scene, the demon saints below seemed to ignore it completely.

Di Jun smiled slightly.

Clearly, he was very satisfied with the power of the Witch-Slaying Sword.

The mere sound of a sword could drive two female demons at the True Immortal Realm into madness; its power was clearly extraordinary.

Emperor Jun noticed the moment the two female demons made a move, and he also sensed the change in their auras.

However, what can they do when their cultivation level is too low?

Thus, the two female demons' actions ultimately failed to touch Di Jun in the slightest, and they were instantly reduced to ashes by a burst of true solar fire.

Upon seeing this, the demon saints below immediately congratulated Emperor Jun, saying, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on finally obtaining the weapon to slay the witches!"

Upon seeing this, Di Jun smiled slightly and then sheathed the Witch-Slaying Sword.
