Chapter 273 Niu Ben Enters the Witchcraft Sect and Returns the Ancestral Witch's Essence Blood!
Upon seeing the eleven Ancestral Witches, including Dijiang, appear, Niu Ben remained calm. Before he could speak, Ancestral Witch Dijiang spoke first:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, what brings you here? May I ask what brings you here?"
Niu Ben smiled faintly and said:
"My ancestral witches."
"I have come to visit you today, but it is not for any other reason."
"I have come here at the behest of the ancestral witch Houtu to fulfill my promise and return something."
As soon as Niu Ben spoke, Di Jiang and the other ancestral witches were all taken aback.
"this?"
"Houtu, the girl?"
"A promise? Returning something?"
The thought of Houtu, the ancestral witch, being reborn into the cycle of reincarnation filled the hearts of all the ancestral witches with sorrow.
What they didn't expect was...
The ancestral witch Houtu actually had Niu Ben deliver something back.
After a brief pause, the Ancestral Witch Dijiang spoke:
"I wonder what Sister Houtu asked you to send?"
Niu Ben didn't reply. With a slight wave of his hand, a drop of essence blood appeared.
This essence blood was yellowish-brown in color, and inside it seemed as if endless mountains and earth were rising and falling.
"boom!"
It was only a manifestation that a powerful life force emanated from that essence blood.
Upon seeing Niu Ben produce that drop of essence blood, Di Jiang and the other eleven Ancestral Witches were all shocked and paled.
"what?"
"The essence blood of the Ancestral... Ancestral Witch?"
"It's the primordial essence of Houtu!"
"How is that possible?"
"What exactly is going on?"
"..."
The eleventh Ancestral Witch exclaimed in surprise, his face filled with disbelief.
As ancestral witches, they could see it at a glance.
The thing that Niu Ben sent was actually the ancestral blood essence of Houtu, the ancestral witch.
Within it lies the most core primordial power of an ancestral witch, its value immeasurable!
More importantly, with this drop of essence blood, they would have the opportunity to cultivate a new Ancestral Witch.
It should be noted that the greatest reliance of the Wu Clan is the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, which was jointly set up by the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
When this formation is activated, it can condense the true form of Pangu, possessing the power to create the world.
After Houtu reincarnated, the great formation could still be set up, but the condensed true form of Pangu was incomplete and its power was greatly reduced.
Now, Niu Ben has returned the essence and blood of the ancestral witch Houtu to the witch clan, which is a great thing for the witch clan.
Shocked, Dijiang Zuwu took a deep breath and looked at Niu Ben with gratitude:
"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Niu Ben!"
"The Wu tribe will never forget this kindness!"
As he spoke, Dijiang Zuwu bowed to Niuben.
The other ancestral witches, seeing this, also realized what was happening and bowed respectfully to Niu Ben.
Seeing this, Niu Ben remained calm, cupped his hands in return, and said:
"Dijiang Zuwu is exaggerating."
"This is the will of the ancestral witch Houtu, and Niu Ben is merely passing it on on her behalf."
"Now that the item has been delivered, I will not linger any longer."
After saying this, Niu Ben didn't wait for Di Jiang and the other ancestral witches to say anything more. In a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
After Niu Ben left, Di Jiang, the Ancestral Witch, waved his hand and collected the Ancestral Witch's essence blood into his hand.
"Gentlemen, please come with me back to the hall immediately for a meeting!"
After obtaining the essence blood, Dijiang quickly glanced at the group of ancestral witches.
Soon, the ancestral witches returned to the Pangu Temple.
"Very good."
"I never imagined that before Houtu transformed into the cycle of reincarnation, she still cared about our Wu tribe!"
"Yes! By leaving behind the essence and blood of the ancestral witch, we can say that we have preserved the bloodline of the ancestral witch for our witch clan."
"With this drop of Ancestral Witch's essence blood, a new Ancestral Witch can be cultivated."
"That's right. In this way, it won't be long before our witch clan produces a new ancestral witch."
"..."
The ancestral witches were extremely excited.
At this moment, the Ancestral Witch Dijiang suddenly spoke:
"Gentlemen."
"There is only one drop of the Ancestral Witch's essence blood; which great witch should inherit it?"
As the Ancestral Witch Dijiang asked this question, the other Ancestral Witches were immediately taken aback.
After a brief silence, one of the ancestral witches spoke:
"My subordinate Xiang Liu is exceptionally brave and of pure blood; he is the best candidate!"
After this ancestral witch spoke, the other ancestral witches also chimed in:
"snort!"
"The Nine Phoenixes under my command are exceptionally gifted, and their strength surpasses even Xiang Liu's!"
"If Xing Tian of my tribe obtains my essence blood, he will surely become the strongest ancestral witch!"
"..."
In an instant, all the ancestral witches vied for the best of their most capable chief witches.
After all, this is not just about strengthening the tribe, but also about its future voice and status within the witch clan.
When a tribe produces a new ancestral witch, its status among the various witch tribes naturally rises.
And so the ancestral witches argued endlessly, none of them willing to concede to the other.
Seeing the ancestral witches arguing more and more fiercely, the ancestral witch Dijiang, who had been silent all along, suddenly roared:
"Enough!!"
Seeing that Dijiang was somewhat angry, the ancestral witches then fell silent.
Dijiang glanced at the group of ancestral witches and said:
"This is not the time to fight for power!"
"Now, our witch clan urgently needs to cultivate a new ancestral witch."
"This person must be the most promising; only in this way can the power of the Ancestral Witch's blood essence be brought into play."
"I propose that Chi You inherit the essence and blood of the Ancestral Witch Houtu!"
As soon as the Ancestral Witch Dijiang spoke, the other Ancestral Witches were all taken aback.
"Chi You?"
"That guy who fights like a madman?"
"This Chi You is indeed... the strongest among the Great Shamans."
"It would be suitable for him to inherit the essence and blood of the ancestral witch."
"..."
After a moment's hesitation, the ancestral witches stopped arguing about it.
Firstly, Chi You himself was the most valiant and skilled warrior among the great shamans of the Wu tribe.
Secondly, it was a candidate personally proposed by the ancestral witch Dijiang.
Seeing that none of the ancestral witches had any objections, the ancestral witch Dijiang spoke:
"Since everyone agrees, then this matter is settled."
……
Meanwhile, at the location of a human tribe.
Over the years, human tribes have frequently experienced population disappearances.
At first, it wasn't very obvious, and the humans didn't take it seriously.
However, as time went on, the number of missing persons cases increased, and the number of missing persons also rose sharply.
This matter even alarmed the Human Emperor and the three Great Ancestors.
Therefore, the Human Emperor Huangtian also sent Suiren Zu to thoroughly investigate the disappearance of human beings.
At first, Suirenzu couldn't find any clues.
However, it was later discovered that the disappearance of these human beings was actually the work of the demon race.
What enraged Suiren Zu even more was...
Later on, the demon race simply stopped pretending and began openly slaughtering human beings.
Of course, what the high-ranking members of the human race, such as Suiren, did not know was that...
At first, the Demon Emperor Di Jun only secretly ordered his subordinates to attack the human race.
Seeing that the progress in forging the Witch-Slaying Sword was too slow, Di Jun changed his mind and ordered his demon clan to stop hiding and directly slaughter the human race.
"boom!"
At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly descended upon a human tribe.
The moment this aura was released, it instantly enveloped the entire human tribe.
Immediately afterwards, a demon god appeared, its malevolent aura soaring to the sky.
