Chapter 2769 - 2768: Witch-Demon War Begins

Chapter 2769: Chapter 2768: Witch-Demon War Begins

For a moment, the group in the main hall fell silent, and after a lengthy discussion, they found themselves unable to deal with Long Fei.

The Incompatible decisively said, "With our current strength, engaging with the Ancient Demon Clan is no problem at all. If we continue to waste time with that Human Race thief, it might become increasingly unfavorable to us."

Bai Ze replied, "Big Brother is absolutely right. The Witch Tribe relies on the resources of the Heavenly Court, and their logistics far exceed ours. If we keep exhausting ourselves, we might fail before waging war against the heavens."

Gui Che thought sullenly, "So, should that kid get off easily?"

Jiu Ying raised an eyebrow, "If we don’t provoke him, will he spare us? When we wage war against the heavens, what if he causes trouble from behind?"

The Incompatible said, "Everyone rest assured, we have the Western protection, as long as we don’t actively provoke that kid, he won’t come to harass us."

The Little Peng King perked up, "Certainly, the Western Buddha Ancestor is numerous, how is it possible for a mere Liangshan Island to provoke them!"

The gathered demons thought it over, bobbed their heads in agreement, and decided they couldn’t delay the matter any longer.

With an army of a million, even a day’s consumption was a staggering figure.

Without the support of Western resources, the Ancient Demon Clan would have long blood-washed cities one after another.

They were unproductive, relying solely on pillaging and slaughter to survive.

With unified opinions, they immediately declared to the world’s Demon Clan that the recruitment orders were entirely voluntary.

The Ancient Demon Clan did not force any demon forces, if anyone wished to contribute to the Demon Clan and sought to achieve glory after the campaign against the heavens, they could bring their entourage to participate in the war.

The demons of the world finally breathed a sigh of relief; who would willingly forsake leisure to engage in a campaign against the heavens with the Ancient Demon Clan?

The title of Eastern Emperor given to Long Fei was spread thanks to the efforts of the five great Demon Kings.

Throughout the Demon Clan, everyone praised Long Fei for his benevolence, risking his life to resist the violent factions of the Ancient Demon Clan for the sake of the demons.

If it weren’t for Long Fei, everyone would have become cannon fodder by now.

In no time, every demon clan erected shrines on mountain tops, enshrining Long Fei’s name.

Shortly after returning to Liangshan Island, Long Fei felt a surge of Power of Faith coming from all directions.

This power is the legendary merit.

Those who obtain merit can resolve karma and enjoy heavenly fortunes.

However, those who lose it may flaunt for a while but cannot flaunt for an eternity.

Even beings as powerful as the Primordial Wild Witch-Demon ultimately end up dissipating into smoke.

Long Fei took out his Green Bamboo Stick, after refining and Yinglong’s Divine Spirit’s blessing, the stick became increasingly extraordinary.

With Moon God, Prince Bo Ling above, and Gold Spirit Kunwu, Fire Spirit Zhu Long, Earth Spirit Ying Long below.

Now it only lacks a Golden Crow, a Wood Spirit, a Water Spirit.

Once the Yin Yang Five Elements are formed, triggering the Power of Reincarnation on the stick, this stick could truly rival a Holy Artifact.

As he was admiring his first masterpiece, suddenly the sky roiled with thunder, and flashes of lightning everywhere.

Long Fei looked up, and saw dark clouds tumbling in the sky, with muffled thunder continuously resonating from within the clouds in all directions.

All of a sudden, a massive meteorite-like object plummeted from the sky, hurtling towards the southeast direction of the mortal world.

This blazing light resembled a shooting star.

After this blazing ball, followed by streams of fiery light, like a meteor shower, quickly descending towards the mortal world.

All disciples watched in astonishment at the sky, feeling as if the sky were falling.

Atop Green Bamboo Mountain, the Little Kirin hurriedly reported to Long Fei, "Father, something terrible has happened. The Demon Clan and Li Jing from Wuzhuang Temple have already announced their war against the heavens, they’ve already mobilized troops to attack the Thirty-Three Heavens."

"Thirty-Three Heavens, Thirty-Three Passes. It shouldn’t be easy for the Demon Clan to ascend!"

Long Fei’s expression remained calm, just gazing at the continually falling stardust, he sighed softly, "This Immortal Realm is vast, yet cannot withstand such dense meteorite falls. The Witch-Demon battles affect the Human Race!"

The Little Kirin focused and said, "Father, why don’t I lead the disciples to intercept and extinguish these meteors?"

Long Fei nodded, "That would be good!"

He took out a jade-like tree-shaped creature from the Storage Ring and handed it to the Little Kirin.

The Little Kirin held the item and exclaimed in surprise, "What’s this?"

"The Star-Devouring Tree!"

Long Fei introduced it blandly, saying to the Little Kirin, "This tree feeds on stars, blocking some meteorites is no problem. But with the widespread distribution of fallen stones in the sky, your limited strength will only be slightly effective."

The Little Kirin held the item excitedly, "I’ll save as many as I can; time is of the essence. Father, I must go now."

He seized the moment to choose a group of skilled demons on Liangshan Island.

The Chaos Beast naturally was the main force; no one on the island could match the speed of the Chaos Beast.

Back in the Mortal Realm, Long Fei obtained the Star-Devouring Tree.

This tree bound the Nine Domains together and then detached, having already evolved into another form.

This body had been nurtured in Long Fei’s Storage Ring, now thriving with the nourishment of Five-Colored Breath Soil, it had long shed its mortal shell.

Once deployed, its branches and leaves could cover a city.

Rooted in the ground, its branches could reach for the moon.

The Witch-Demon battles were essentially a continuation of the previous calamities.

This level of battle, Long Fei couldn’t prevent.

Calamities are born for slaughter; whoever stops the slaughter is defying the heavens.

It’s merely in such slaughter to see which side sacrifices their forces.

The Western Buddha Sect pushed the Ancient Demon Clan to the forefront, intending to let the Ancient Demon Clan bear its karma.

The Ancient Demon Clan is aware, but they can only rely on the Buddhist Sect’s power now.

Both sides exploit each other, and no one loses.

The current Witch and Demon Tribes may not be comparable to the Witch-Demon Tribes during the Primordial Wild era.

However, the destructiveness in times of war is still quite astonishing.

Just the war on the first layer of heaven plunged sun and moon into darkness, stars shattered.

Through layers of clouds, Long Fei saw the battlefield where myriad demons roared, and thousands of witches clanged.

The two sides, like black tides, relentlessly crashed together at one point.

Blood spurted over, and flesh flew.

Imagining the scene during the Primordial Wild Witch-Demon War must have been tremendous.

The dark clouds in the sky turned blood red due to a surge of Blood Qi.

Inside the Hall of Light in the Heavenly Court, Taibai Venus hurriedly approached the Jade Emperor to report the Witch-Demon war.

The Jade Emperor angrily smashed the objects in his hand to the ground, seething, "Li Jing truly rebels, daring to unite with the Demon Clan and offend my Heavenly Court. They intend to cleanse the court and straighten the government. Do they consider me like the foolish King Zhou of Shang? Do they even see me? Where do they want to put me?"

Taibai Venus replied helplessly, "Last time, I sought the Heavenly King, asking him not to deploy troops, not to deploy troops. Unexpectedly, eventually the Heavenly King united with the Demon Clan."

The Jade Emperor said in a deep voice, "He uses the reputation of cleansing court sides to plot rebellion. Immediately, issue a decree, order the Heavenly River Navy to assist the Witch Tribe in eradicating these traitors."

Taibai Venus hesitantly replied, "Your Majesty, calm your anger. The Heavenly River Navy has always followed Emperor Ziwei’s lead. Even if Your Majesty issues an order, they may not comply."

The Jade Emperor slammed the Dragon Chair in anger, "They are the Heavenly Court’s navy, not Emperor Ziwei’s navy. Do they think I am less than Emperor Ziwei?"

Taibai Venus wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, truly daring not to speak the truth.

The blind Heavenly Court, after the Investiture of the Gods cleared all the Heavenly Gods, saw everyone depart and scatter, with all positions temporarily held by the Witch Tribe.

Each Immortal Monarch only sought self-preservation, remaining indifferent to Heavenly Court matters.

Some even joined Li Jing’s rebel army, opting to confront the Witch Tribe.

Emperor Ziwei remained stationed in the Arctic, while his troops quietly watched as the Demon Clan and Witch Tribe bloodied each other.

Now, the Jade Emperor is truly a lone commander.

Only Taibai Venus can be dispatched by him; others completely disregard the Jade Emperor.

Taibai Venus pondered for a moment and suggested to the Jade Emperor, "Your Majesty, we have one person we could use now!"

The Jade Emperor raised his eyebrow, "Oh? Who?"

Taibai Venus said, "The Eastern Emperor!"

"Him?"

The Jade Emperor felt a pang of discomfort upon hearing that title.

Taibai Venus said, "According to what I know, the Eastern Emperor is well-acquainted with Jiufeng of the Witch Tribe, and he is also an Emperor among the Demon Clan. Having him mediate the war would be fitting indeed."
