Lady Pingxin glanced at him, her gaze as calm as usual, and she lightly said, "Fellow Daoist, why not bring your credentials when the time comes and try?"

Hearing this, Yu Yuan felt somewhat relieved.

It seemed that although Houtu Ancestor Witch had transformed into the cycle of reincarnation, the derived Lady Pingxin could also be considered a continuation of her life.

At this moment, Minghe Ancestor finally couldn't hold back any longer, and said with a brave face, "Begging Lady's pardon, since Lady has already achieved sainthood, could my created Asura Clan perhaps receive some merit?"

"Oh?" Lady Pingxin gave him a look and smiled indifferently, "Do you mean to say that you also contributed to this seat's achievement of sainthood?"

"That is indeed the case!" Minghe Ancestor nodded.

"The Asura Clan entered my Six Paths of Reincarnation, from this point of view, you indeed have merit... But how should your previous crime of obstructing my sainthood be dealt with?!"

Lady Pingxin asked, looking at Minghe Ancestor.

"This..."

Minghe Ancestor turned pale with fright upon hearing this and was speechless for a long time.

Obstructing someone's path to sainthood, this was even worse than killing someone's parents or stealing someone's Spiritual Treasure.

You should know, previously, in order to gain benefits from Donghuang Taiyi, he indeed put great effort into preventing Houtu Ancestor Witch from achieving sainthood, a decision that now placed him in a life-threatening predicament.

Seeing his reaction, Yu Yuan couldn't help but feel somewhat amused.

This Minghe Ancestor was truly too greedy.

To be in such a situation and still think about asking for merit, didn't he see that Xuan Ming Ancestor Witch was already grinding his teeth, wanting to tear him apart?

In front of Lady Pingxin, who was a true saint, Minghe Ancestor didn't dare to be presumptuous and with a resentful sigh, he vanished without a trace.

Yu Yuan did not pay him any attention.

This innate divine being, who always hid in the Netherworld Blood Sea and worked in isolation, had advantages in certain aspects, but because he stayed in the Blood Sea year-round, he was essentially sealing his own progress, with little chance for advancement.

While pondering this, he saw Lady Pingxin's figure also slowly disappear, leaving only a gentle voice.

"Go, there is no Houtu in this world anymore."

These words were clearly directed at Xuan Ming Ancestor Witch.

Yu Yuan turned and saw this beautiful-looking Ancestor Witch showing a sorrowful expression, but then she immediately became solemn and said in a deep voice, "Fellow Tian Yuan, now that our Witch Clan has lost an Ancestor Witch, Donghuang Taiyi and the others will surely seize the opportunity to attack. I ask that you act honorably and lend a helping hand!"

Yu Yuan stared at the Ancestor Witch in front of him, his expression unchanged, and after a long while, he calmly said, "I cannot intervene in this matter, please forgive me!"

He had said these words before.

Moreover, now that Houtu Ancestor Witch had chosen to transform herself into the cycle of reincarnation, attaining sainthood by sacrificing her own life, the Witch and Demon Clans were heading towards a dead end, naturally, Yu Yuan would not easily change his mind.

The conflict between the Witch and Demon Clans had nothing to do with him. There was really no need to get involved.

As for whether Lady Pingxin would blame him, Yu Yuan was not too worried.

After all, if she still retained the will of Houtu Ancestor Witch, she would naturally help the Witch Clan at a critical moment without needing his intervention.

Hearing his refusal, the hope in Xuan Ming Ancestor Witch's eyes instantly dissipated, yet she did not persist further, merely expressing her disappointment before turning and departing.

Seeing her turn and leave, Yu Yuan also felt a touch of melancholy.

This Ancestor Witch was lively, righteous, very loyal, somewhat similar to Red Cloud Ancestor, and she even looked back before leaving.

That glance, filled with complex emotions, was something even Yu Yuan could not understand.

Nevertheless, from then on, there seemed to be no more interaction between this Ancestor Witch and him.

Thus, he did not pay it much mind.

Yu Yuan did not realize that the moment he turned and left, a blue light suddenly flashed over the body of the Xuan Ming Ancestor Witch, and a will penetrated through ancient, present, and future, silently transmitted out.

This was a barely established connection, seemingly also involving the Houtu Ancestor Witch, creating a mysterious link between them.

Of course, this is a story for later.

Right now, after the Xuan Ming Ancestor Witch left, Yu Yuan did not linger and directly traveled through time back to the Sealing God Era.

What he didn't know was that after he left, the most glorious battles of the Witch Demon Calamity officially commenced.

...

Buzhou Mountain, towering majestically, stands like a Heavenly Pillar supporting the whole world.

The mountain peaks are steep, piercing through the clouds; above the sea of clouds, Xuan Ming Palace is faintly visible in a deep valley.

On the mountain, peaks overlap, waterfalls cascade, penetrating deep into the forests, with distant ravines filled with blooming honeysuckles. A winding mountain road ascends through vistas of dancing shadows under a canopy of trees, where occasionally the silhouette of giant snakes can be seen moving between the treetops.

In the deep valley below lies a clear mountain spring quietly flowing. Below the mountain extends a thousand-mile plain covered with boundless wild grass, an awe-inspiring vastness to the eye.

The long river roars with deafening sounds, sparkling like a strip of light at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, this ancient Heavenly Pillar has become the battlefield of the Witch and Demon Clans.

Countless Demon Clan Heavenly Soldiers and Generals are marching in neat rows, attacking the Witch Clan stronghold of Buzhou Mountain.

Witch warriors meet the Demon soldiers on the grand battlefield outside Buzhou Mountain, both sides majestically charged under their leaders' command, with countless thunder, storms, and flames of powerful spells continuously intertwining into vortexes...

Here, the elemental forces of earth, water, wind, fire, and Yin Yang Five Elements are all wildly chaotic; the sky trembles fiercely as if the air itself burns.

Witch warriors furiously charge at the Demon soldiers, their giant hammers howling, their fierce faces flashing with murder.

Ordered ranks of Demon soldiers counterattack with ferocious Sword Qi tearing through the air.

In the initial contact, both sides are zealously spirited, attacking their opponents with powerful spells from a distance.

Lightning flickers, storms sweep through, flames dance, intertwining on the battlefield creating an emotionally stirring panorama. Countless Demon soldiers leap into the air, their blades swirling with glinting lights, their fierce blade Qi slashing from all directions, overpowering the Witch warriors like a tidal wave.

However, the Witch warriors are naturally brave and fearless, unwilling to submit even if outnumbered, facing the Demon soldiers head-on.

They harness natural power, shrinking the ground to appear amidst the Demon army, drawing down massive bolts of lightning on the heads of the Demon soldiers, and simultaneous storms of arrows rain down from the sky, causing the Demon soldiers to flee in disarray, discarding armor and weapons.

Even though the commanding generals desperately regroup their forces, they cannot withstand the Witch warriors' onslaught and are consecutively slaughtered on the battlefield.

Yet this battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan has just begun; small victories or defeats in local areas are insignificant and trivial.

Nevertheless, both sides continue to engage in fierce battles on the battlefield.

Several minor witches join forces, casting spells, and huge electric bolts fly from the sky, the intense current mingling with the lightning, instantly breaking the Demon army's formation.

Soon, fierce winds arise, sweeping the Demon soldiers toward the sky.

At the same time, flames erupt from the Witch warriors' hands, slashing through the gloomy clouds like fierce fire, instantly surrounding the Demon soldiers.

The Demon side also shows no weakness, with several Demon Gods stepping forward, activating their Spiritual Treasures, employing Daoist Skills and Divine Skills sweeping toward the Witch position.

These two forces continuously collide in the air, generating deafening booms.

Huge rocks and soil spatter like torrents, the entire battlefield filled with dust and gunpowder smoke, as if every person is immersed in this life-or-death struggle.

The battle, unknowingly begun, with no known end in sight.

Countless bodies have already piled up on the ground, yet neither side has determined the victor.

The fight continues relentlessly, Witch warriors and Demon soldiers battle to the death in a sea of blood; the whole Buzhou Mountain, like hell, endlessly echoes with ghastly wails, raging winds, and furious fires creating a prelude to death…
