Chapter 118 The term is up, the great war is about to begin!
Seeing that Nuwa wanted him to stay at her temple, Niu Ben naturally did not refuse and quickly bowed respectfully, saying:
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
It should be noted that Nuwa has now become a saint, and her sacred palace, the Nuwa Palace, is also filled with holy images.
Being able to stay here for a while to cultivate oneself is certainly of great benefit.
Go!
Nuwa gently waved her jade hand.
Niu Ben nodded and then left the main hall.
Before long, the person arrived outside the Nuwa Palace.
The demon god Fei Dan was still waiting, while Ling Zhuzi was watching him warily, as if she was afraid that Fei Dan would trespass.
Fei Dan gave a bitter smile and sighed inwardly:
"Why is Lingzhuzi treating me like a thief?"
"This is the sacred ground of a sage; even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to trespass here!"
Just then, both of them noticed Niu Ben walking over.
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, you've come out so quickly!"
Fei Dan said with a smile, and then stepped forward to greet Niu Ben.
Lingzhuzi saw this and followed.
"Now that you have met the Sage, fellow Daoist, please come back with me!"
As they approached, Fei Dan said with a smile.
He then planned to take Niu Ben back to report.
After all, this is the sacred site of Nuwa in Heaven, and it must not be disturbed.
However, to Fei Dan's surprise, Niu Ben, upon hearing this, said calmly:
"Fellow Daoist Feidan, the Sage Nuwa has left me to cultivate in her Daoist temple for a thousand years."
"A thousand years from now, I will meet with you again."
Upon hearing this, Fei Dan's eyes widened in disbelief.
"What?"
"Did the sage leave him to cultivate in his own monastery?"
Fei Dan gasped inwardly.
But then she thought about it again and realized that perhaps the Sage Nuwa left Niu Ben here out of respect for the Three Pure Ones.
After all, Sanqing was Nuwa's senior brother and the future sage appointed by the Dao Ancestor.
"Then...then I'll head back to report!"
Fei Dan responded, and without further ado, turned and left.
After Fei Dan left, Ling Zhuzi looked at Niu Ben with great curiosity.
Just now, he received a message from Nuwa, instructing him to arrange accommodation for Niu Ben in the Nuwa Palace and to treat him well.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Seeing Lingzhuzi looking him up and down, Niu Ben asked with a smile.
Lingzhuzi withdrew his gaze and then said:
"It's nothing."
"Her Majesty instructed me to treat you well!"
"Come with me! I'll show you around the Nuwa Palace first."
After saying that, Lingzhuzi turned and walked out. Niu Ben didn't pay any attention and followed Lingzhuzi.
And so, Niu Ben stayed temporarily at the Nuwa Palace.
……
Meanwhile, in the primordial world...
Since Nuwa attained sainthood, the primordial world has enjoyed a rare period of peace.
The Wu tribe guarded Mount Buzhou, the demon tribe ruled the heavens, and the Purple Palace Immortal Court occupied the East Sea.
The three forces are currently in a tripartite balance, coexisting peacefully and recuperating.
During this period, the newly born human race was able to multiply and thrive.
Although they were born weak, they were fortunate to be protected by the sacred circle drawn by the sage Nuwa, and gradually took root and grew on the primordial land, living in peace and contentment.
Time slips away unnoticed, and a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, outside the Nuwa Palace, a figure descended from the clouds and arrived at the palace gate.
The person who came was none other than the demon god Feidan.
As soon as Fei Dan appeared, Ling Zhu Zi appeared.
"What is it?"
Lingzhuzi glanced indifferently at Feidan and asked.
Fei Dan smiled and said:
"I've come to find Fellow Daoist Niu Ben."
"The thousand-year time limit has expired, and the Demon Emperor has invited him to the Lingxiao Palace for a meeting!"
Before Lingzhuzi could say anything, Niubenren had already arrived in a flash.
"Fellow Daoist Feidan, you're quite punctual."
Niu Ben smiled and looked at Fei Dan as he spoke.
Then, the two of them didn't linger and left Nuwa Palace together.
Not long after, Niu Ben, led by Fei Dan, arrived at the Lingxiao Palace again.
Inside the hall, all the high-ranking members of the demon race were present, each exuding a powerful aura and a strong fighting spirit!
Niu Ben stepped forward and bowed slightly to Di Jun on the throne.
"Greetings, Demon Emperor!"
Di Jun nodded slightly and glanced at Niu Ben.
It should be noted that for the past thousand years, Niu Ben has always stayed in the Nuwa Palace of the Sage Nuwa.
Di Jun also wanted to see what changes had occurred in him after staying in the sage's dojo for so long.
Unfortunately, after looking at it closely, they couldn't figure it out at all.
Then, Di Jun spoke:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben."
"The millennium has passed, the time has come."
"Our demon army has been assembled and is ready to depart for the Purple Mansion immediately."
Niu Ben nodded; this was the day he had been waiting for. He said calmly:
"We shall obey the Demon Emperor's commands!"
Di Jun smiled slightly, slowly rose from his throne, and swept his gaze across the assembled demon gods in the hall:
"I will obey your command!"
"Today is the day to annihilate the Purple Mansion Celestial Court!"
"Set off!"
Upon hearing this, all the demons and gods were greatly encouraged and raised their arms, shouting:
"The demon race will prevail!"
They then all left the Lingxiao Palace.
"Knock knock..."
Before long, the deep, heavy sound of war drums began to beat.
Like a thunderclap, the sound resounded throughout the heavens.
In an instant, the gates to the heavens burst open, their terrifying power shaking the clouds.
Upon closer inspection, hundreds of millions of demon soldiers and generals stood in solemn formation, banners obscuring the sky, weapons gleaming, and a chilling aura permeating the heavens and earth.
All living beings in the primordial world were awestruck upon witnessing this scene.
"this?"
"What's going on?"
"The demon army is gathering, what are they planning?"
"Is a major war about to break out?"
"Why have all the demons been mobilized?"
"Whom are these demons going to attack?"
"..."
Many powerful beings from the primordial era were shocked by this.
It should be noted that during this period, the primordial world was rarely peaceful.
Now, the demon race has suddenly mobilized a large army with a magnificent momentum. Judging from this, a great battle is about to begin!
The location of the Witch Clan.
Inside the Pangu Temple.
The twelve Ancestral Witches gathered together, each with a solemn expression and a tense look on their faces.
"Brother, the demon army has left the Heavenly Realm. Could they be coming for us?"
Qiangliang, the ancestral shaman, asked in surprise, his gaze fixed on Dijiang, the ancestral shaman.
Di Jiang frowned, but before he could speak, the Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong spoke first:
"If the demon race is truly targeting my witch race, then let's fight!"
Upon hearing this, the other ancestral witches echoed his sentiments.
After all, the witch clan is inherently warlike!
These ancestral witches were no exception.
Upon seeing this, Dijiang glanced at the crowd and was about to say something when he suddenly sensed that the demon army was already marching in a mighty force towards the Purple Mansion.
"Is this aimed at the Purple Mansion Celestial Court?"
Dijiang exclaimed in surprise.
At the same time, other powerful beings in the prehistoric world also sensed the whereabouts of the demon army and were all shocked by this sudden scene.
"Oh?"
"Judging from the direction of the demon army's movements, they're heading straight for the Eastern King Duke's Purple Mansion Celestial Court!"
"A great battle is about to begin!"
"The primordial world is about to be plunged into chaos and devastation once again!"
"It seems the demon race is going to fight the Purple Mansion to the death?"
"These two forces will inevitably clash; there's no escaping it."
"..."
