Chapter 447 Is it ordained by Heaven and cannot be changed?
Meanwhile, inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun sat cross-legged on a futon, his gaze indifferently fixed on the battlefield of Buzhou Mountain.
"The aura of calamity rises, the murderous energy soars to the heavens, cause and effect intertwine, and karmic forces boil..."
As he watched, Hongjun muttered to himself.
It gave the impression that he was stating a given fact.
"The way of Heaven operates, and Yin and Yang wax and wane."
"The Lich and Demon races were born with the ancient destiny, and they controlled the heavens and the earth. Their power was too great, and their destiny had reached its peak. When things reach their peak, they will decline. This is the will of Heaven."
At this point, Hongjun slightly raised his eyes and glanced at the chaotic void.
There, the primordial will of Heaven permeates.
Others may not know this, but Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor, is very clear about it.
The Lich and Demon races once again went to war.
Everything is guided by the Way of Heaven.
Heaven and earth need balance, and all living things need to take turns.
The glorious era of the Lich and Demon races is coming to an end, and new forces are rising.
Therefore, it is necessary to use the blood and evil of the lich to wash away the old order and usher in a new era.
This battle is an inevitable consequence of the changing of the tides of destiny.
It is also necessary to purify the excess calamity energy of heaven and earth.
In addition, this fierce battle was not only an expression of hatred between the two races, but also a part of the self-regulation of the Heavenly Dao and the driving force of the evolution of the primordial world.
The lich was too powerful, having seized too much of the power and fortune of heaven and earth.
This would hinder the rise of new forces and accumulate enough malevolent energy to cause even greater disasters.
Only through such a devastating catastrophe, weakening or even eliminating the overlords of the old era and releasing the calamity's energy, can the primordial world regain its vitality and enter a new stage of development.
At the same time, the great sages of the primordial world also expressed their feelings about this war between the witches and demons.
On the main island of Penglai Fairy Island.
The three sages stood side by side, their eyes fixed on Mount Buzhou.
"Big brother."
"This battle was exceptionally fierce!"
"If this continues, I'm afraid both the Lich and Demon races will be wiped out in this battle."
The Sage of Heaven sighed.
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Sage remained calm and composed.
As sages, they also knew that the great war between the witch and demon races was ordained by fate and was inevitable.
Before the Supreme Sage could speak, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable had already said:
"These two clans, one ruling over the heavens and the other over the earth, have long enjoyed prosperity!"
"Things of the world change; nothing lasts forever."
The Supreme Sage remained silent, his brows furrowing slightly as if he had thought of something, and he murmured softly:
"Is what is ordained by Heaven unchangeable?"
Upon hearing what the Supreme Sage said, both Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian were taken aback, and then they both looked towards the Supreme Sage.
"Um?"
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned and uttered a soft question:
"Big brother, you...you're not planning to interfere in the Lich War, are you?"
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Being smiled and shook his head, saying with a meaningful expression:
"No, that's not it."
"You all said that the Lich War was ordained by fate!"
"How could I... defy the will of Heaven?"
On the other side, where the Nuwa Palace is located.
The sage Nuwa was also keeping a close eye on the battle at Buzhou Mountain.
After witnessing the brutality of the war between the Lich and the Demon races, her expression became quite complex.
Although she is a saint, she was born into the demon race.
However, because she was made into a saint by molding clay into humans, Nuwa is also revered as the Holy Mother of the human race.
Moreover, after he became a saint, the Heavenly Dao issued a warning that saints should not easily interfere in the affairs of the primordial world.
That is why Nuwa resigned from her identity as the Demon Queen and went to the Outer Heavens to reopen her own Daoist temple.
Seeing the fierce battle between the demon race and the witch race, she felt somewhat distressed.
"Huff huff..."
After a moment of stunned silence, the Sage Nuwa took a deep breath, and the responsible look on her face gradually faded, replaced by a cold and aloof expression.
"The decline of the Lich and Demon races was inevitable."
Even if I feel reluctant, it's no use.
As she spoke, the sage Nuwa let out a soft sigh.
Despite their lofty status as saints, they are actually bound by the laws of Heaven.
While sighing, the sage Nuwa suddenly thought of something, and then turned her gaze toward the location of the underworld.
"Niu Ben attained the Great Luo Realm of Primordial Chaos through his own efforts!"
"If he makes a move."
"Even Heaven can't control this."
"In that case, the course of the primordial world might be altered."
Nuwa said excitedly.
Whether based on her origins as a demon or out of inherent compassion, the sage Nuwa did not wish to see the demon and witch races continue to fight like this.
Because of the constraints of the Heavenly Dao, she could only remain neutral. However, in the eyes of the Sage Nuwa, Niu Ben was a variable among the various sages.
Only Niu Ben can change anything.
After all, when Niu Ben chose to prove the Dao of Hunyuan in the underworld, he not only triggered the Hunyuan Thunder Tribulation, but also the will of Heaven descended to completely erase him from the prehistoric world.
However, later, Dao Ancestor Hongjun personally came to the underworld and helped Niu Ben withstand the Primordial Thunder Tribulation empowered by the will of Heaven, allowing Niu Ben to successfully attain the Primordial Great Luo Dao.
After a moment's thought, the sage Nuwa came to her senses, sighed helplessly, and lamented:
"Although things might change if Niu Ben intervenes."
"But I'm afraid... he won't do that, will he?"
……
Western religion, Mount Sumeru.
Beside the Eight Treasures Golden Pool, the two saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, were also keeping a close eye on the war between the witches and demons at Buzhou Mountain.
"Senior brother!"
"It's terrible!"
"If this continues, both the demon race and the witch race will likely be wiped out."
Zhunti said excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Jieyin nodded and murmured an "Mmm":
"That's excellent."
"The witch and demon races have occupied the dominant power in the primordial world for far too long."
"Only if they decline will our Western religion have the opportunity to rise."
Zhunti nodded slightly in agreement with what Jieyin said.
"yes!"
"This is a golden opportunity for the West to strengthen itself!"
Meanwhile, in a sacred mountain, Kunpeng was also awakened by the commotion of the war between the Lich King and the Demon King.
"snort!"
"It would be great if Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi died in this great battle."
Kunpeng cried out in anger.
He hated the demon race, especially the two emperors, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, to the core!
He was originally a demon master of the demon race, and he had made many contributions to the demon race.
Subsequently, Cangjie of the human race created characters and received a great deal of merit from Heaven.
Upon seeing this, Kunpeng had an idea and, imitating Cangjie's creation of characters, created the demon script for the demon race.
This act also brought Kunpeng the blessing of Heaven, bestowing upon him a great deal of merit, enabling his cultivation to advance from the peak of Quasi-Saint to the level of Sub-Saint.
However, what Kunpeng didn't expect was...
When Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi saw that Kunpeng had obtained the merits of the Heavenly Dao, they hatched a plan. So they forcibly took the merits from Kunpeng and demanded that he hand them over.
In the end, Kunpeng was no match for the two brothers and had no choice but to hand over his merits.
It was because of this incident that Kunpeng chose to leave the demon race and join the Western Religion.
