Chapter 368 Helping the Demon Race? Stopping the Fight?
Yuanshi Tianzun neither agreed nor disagreed with the Supreme Lord's words, and nodded slightly, saying:
"Brother, your disciple has always had a very broad vision."
"Back then, it was he who relinquished the supreme blessed land of Penglai Immortal Island, allowing the Three Pure Ones to relocate their Daoist temples here, thus making the three religions more harmonious!"
"Now that the primordial world is facing invasion from foreign enemies, his appearance on the battlefield between the Lich King and the Demon King must be an attempt to temporarily halt hostilities and unite against the external aggression!"
Upon hearing this, Taishang and Tongtian nodded.
……
Beyond the heavens, in the palace of Nuwa.
When the sage Nuwa saw Niu Ben's true form manifest on the battlefield of the Lich King, she was also taken aback.
"Niu Ben?"
"His appearance on the battlefield at this time, could it be that he too received a warning from Heaven?"
After a moment's thought, the sage Nuwa made up her mind.
"That's fine too."
"If the war between the Lich and Demon races continues, both races will inevitably suffer heavy losses."
Nuwa sighed, hoping to see the witch clan and the demon clan stop fighting.
……
Western religion, Mount Sumeru.
"Um?"
"That's... a bull?"
"He actually showed up at the Lich Wars battlefield, what's he up to?"
Zhunti asked in surprise, his brows furrowed with doubt.
Jieyin glanced at her and said in a deep voice:
"What else can we do? Naturally, we should try to mediate the Lich War!"
At this point, Jieyin sighed helplessly and looked at Zhunti, saying:
"Junior brother, we've been a step too late."
Upon hearing this from Jieyin, Zhunti immediately realized what was happening and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
"yes!"
"Why didn't we think of that?"
"To step in and mediate the Lich War at this time, uniting against a common enemy, would be a great act of merit!"
"This brute... he's certainly enthusiastic!"
Just as the sages were marveling at the location of Mount Buzhou.
With the arrival of Niu Ben's true form, the Wu and Yao tribes, who had been fighting fiercely, immediately stopped their battle.
Indeed, the aura emanating from Niu Ben's body was far too terrifying.
Meanwhile, inside the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation.
When Zhu Rong, the ancestral witch, saw Niu Ben appear on the battlefield in his true form, his expression suddenly darkened.
He was by nature hot-tempered and impatient, and when he saw Niu Ben appear and interrupt the battle, he immediately roared:
"Bull Bull!"
"You actually dare to interfere in the Lich War?"
In Zhu Rong's view, Niu Ben was born into the Niu clan, and if you really want to count, he could be considered a member of the demon clan.
Intervening at this time might be an attempt to help the demon race deal with their witch race.
Upon hearing Zhu Rong's rebuke, Di Jiang, the ancestral witch, changed his expression drastically and quickly stopped him:
"Zhurong, shut up!"
Dijiang Zuwu held Niu Ben in high esteem.
Moreover, Niu Ben is now an autonomous being of the underworld, a true Primordial Grand Luo being!
Its relationship with the Wu tribe was also quite good. It was Niu Ben who returned the drop of ancestral witch essence blood left by Houtu to the Wu tribe, which made it possible for Chi You to refine the ancestral witch essence blood and advance to the level of ancestral witch.
In Dijiang's view, Niu Ben's appearance on the Lich War battlefield at this time was certainly not to help the demon race.
After hearing what the Ancestral Witch Zhurong said, Niu Ben's true form did not take it to heart, but instead calmly said:
"You shall cease your attack now!"
"Nowadays..."
Niu Ben had originally intended to reveal the matter of the foreign invasion.
However, before he could even utter a word, the Ancestral Witch Zhurong angrily interrupted him:
"snort!"
"Niu Ben, who do you think you are?"
Thinking of the deaths of Kuafu and Dayi, Zhurong felt a surge of hatred in his heart. Coupled with the previous battle, he was already bloodthirsty.
Niu Ben told them to stop at this point, but he wouldn't listen.
"Zhurong, you..."
Seeing that Zhu Rong was still arguing with Niu Ben, Di Jiang's face suddenly darkened. Just as he was about to reprimand him, the Chaos Divine Ox floating in the void suddenly turned its giant eyes, which were like the sun and moon, and looked straight at Zhu Rong.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Rong, the ancestral witch, trembled uncontrollably, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"boom!"
Before he could even react, Niu Ben's true form, the Chaos Divine Ox, had already raised one of its front hooves and then stomped down with the other.
The hoof seemed to move slowly, yet it appeared to transcend the barriers of space and time.
In no time, it pierced through the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation and landed precisely on the head of the Ancestral Witch Zhurong.
"what?"
Upon seeing the approaching hoof, Zhu Rong was filled with panic.
At this moment, he could clearly feel it.
The hoof that landed on Niu Ben's body contained an irresistible profound truth of the Great Dao.
It was as if his hoof could suppress everything.
The malevolent energy rushing towards the bull's hooves shattered into pieces, offering no resistance whatsoever.
"Bang!"
Before Zhu Rong could think any further, the giant ox hoof had already crushed down.
With a deafening roar, Zhu Rong was instantly crushed under the giant hoof.
Upon witnessing this scene, the other ancestral witches were all astonished, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Bull Bull!"
"What do you mean?"
Why attack Zhurong?
The ancestral shamans spoke out indignantly.
They initially didn't believe that Niu Ben would attack their Wu clan, after all, Niu Ben's relationship with the Wu clan was much better than his relationship with the demon clan.
On the other side, Di Jun, who controlled the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array, and Donghuang Taiyi and other high-ranking members of the demon race were all at a loss upon seeing this.
"Brother, what's going on?"
"Why did Niu Ben attack the Witch Clan?"
Donghuang Taiyi exclaimed in surprise, looking completely bewildered.
It should be noted that Niu Ben and their demon race have a history of enmity.
Putting aside other things, Xihe and Changxi of the Taiyin star were originally chosen by Dijun, but in the end they were protected by Niu Ben.
Now, Xihe has become Niuben's Daoist partner, which has caused the demon race to lose face.
"this……"
Di Jun was stunned, his brows furrowed with doubt. He didn't know why Niu Ben had suddenly appeared on the battlefield and even suppressed the Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong.
"Could it be that he really intends to help my demon race?"
"That's not right!"
Di Jun muttered to himself, racking his brains but still unable to figure out why.
Just then, Niu Ben's true form's gaze darkened, sweeping over the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan, and he said coldly:
"Utterly foolish!"
"The formidable enemy has arrived, the blade hangs over the throat of the primordial world, yet you still commit such foolish acts for this tiny piece of land and past grudges?"
As soon as Niu Ben uttered these words, all the creatures of the Wu and Yao races were dumbfounded, completely unable to understand what Niu Ben meant.
"What?"
"A formidable enemy?"
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, what do you mean by that?"
Dijiang Zuwu glanced at Niu Ben's true form, the Chaos Divine Ox, and asked.
Niu Ben didn't reply, and the hoof that was pressing down on the Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong immediately retracted.
The next moment, he manifested in human form, and with a casual wave of his hand, the warning from Heaven spread out and entered the minds of all living beings present.
