Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation

Recalling this matter, Lady Pingxin was eager to discuss it with others.

She stood up and with a single step, arrived at Fengdu Ghost City.

At this moment, Emperor Fengdu was seated inside the great hall, sensing the presence of Lady Pingxin. His mind stirred, and all the restrictions inside and outside Fengdu Palace vanished completely.

Although these restrictions could not impede Lady Pingxin, they were necessary to show her the respect she deserved.

When Lady Pingxin entered Fengdu Palace, the two seated themselves opposite each other. Emperor Fengdu calmly asked, "Houtu Ancestor Witch, have you come because of the changes in the heavenly mechanism, heralding the rise of the Human Race?"

Emperor Fengdu knew some things regarding the Human Race, but his knowledge was not comprehensive, as his true form had not entirely shared its memories with him.

Lady Pingxin nodded solemnly, then said, "It's not just about this matter. Regarding the affairs of the Human Race, I have some speculations and would like to discuss them with the Fengdu Ancestor Witch."

Seeing this, Emperor Fengdu also became serious. Looking at Lady Pingxin, he said, "Houtu Ancestor Witch, please speak!"

Subsequently, Lady Pingxin conveyed all her thoughts and concerns to Emperor Fengdu.

After hearing her words, Emperor Fengdu pondered for a long time before saying, "What Houtu Ancestor Witch said is not impossible. Considering the great power of Pangu Father God, nothing is beyond him."

"Then how should we treat the Human Race? Should we assist in their prosperity?"

Lady Pingxin couldn't help but ask.

Given that they were the favored beings of Pangu Father God, what reason did she have not to help them?

However, at this time, Emperor Fengdu was exceptionally calm and said quietly, "Whether Pangu Father God truly favors the Human Race is something we do not know and cannot confirm."

Hearing this, Lady Pingxin immediately calmed herself, realizing that her emotions had fluctuated due to Pangu Father God.

Emperor Fengdu continued, "But helping the Human Race is indeed something we can do."

"Firstly, the heavenly mechanism is so openly and prominently proclaiming the flourishing of the Primordial Human Clan that it is a grand trend of the Heavenly Dao, unavoidable. The Human Race is destined to prosper."

"Secondly, although the Human Race is weak, let us not forget that the Human Race is guarded by three Saints, especially with the presence of that Demon Emperor. When the Immortal Court of the East King massacred the Human Race, it was that Demon Emperor who personally intervened."

At this point, Emperor Fengdu stopped, and Lady Pingxin realized as well, immediately adding, "Under such circumstances, helping the Human Race prosper is a win-win situation for us."

Emperor Fengdu nodded and continued, "Let us not forget, there is a connection between our Witch Clan and the Human Race."

"Witch People!"

Lady Pingxin blurted out, her eyes shining brighter.

When the Twelve Ancestor Witches allowed the Witch Clan to accept part of the Human Race, Lady Pingxin was already stationed in the Netherworld, unaware of this.

Thus, although she knew of the existence of Witch People, she tended to subconsciously ignore them.

"Regarding this matter, Houtu Ancestor Witch need not worry. I will personally handle it, and it will be managed by Wu Xian."

Emperor Fengdu said.

Hearing the words of Emperor Fengdu, Lady Pingxin's expression finally calmed down.

After the two discussed some specific details for a while, Lady Pingxin departed, returning to the location of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Emperor Fengdu's gaze pierced through the Netherworld, looking at a paradise on the Primordial Continent where a clan lived—the Witch People tribe.

While Lady Pingxin subconsciously forgot them, Emperor Fengdu certainly did not.

Witch People.

Like him, they could cultivate the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique and also the Immortal Dao. How could they be forgotten?

Though ultimately, the two paths do not align, and only one can be chosen, which also highlights the remarkable nature of the Witch People.

Since Emperor Fengdu became the Netherworld Saint, he instructed Wu Xian to take special care of the Witch People in the Primordial Continent.

Otherwise, how could the Witch People have a paradise of their own?

In the Western Primordial, Mount Sumeru.

Zhun Ti Saint sensed the changes in the heavenly mechanism and, looking at his elder brother, couldn't help but say, "What merits does Fellow Daoist Nuwa possess to have created the Human Race?"

His expression was filled with jealousy.

Upon hearing this, Jie Yin Saint nodded gently with a sense of sorrow and said, "The grand trend of the Heavenly Dao, the Human Race shall rise. Fellow Daoist Nuwa needs to do nothing, and her fortune increases greatly."

"With the fortune of both the Demon Clan and the Human Race, Fellow Daoist Nuwa's fortune is boundless."

Jie Yin Saint's tone was filled with envy.

"Indeed, what you said is true, Brother. Fellow Daoist Nuwa joined the Demon Clan, with the Demon Emperor fully supporting her becoming a Saint. Now with the rise of the Human Race, her benefits are immense."

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa's path of cultivation is far smoother than ours."

Zhun Ti Saint said.

Jie Yin Saint nodded in complete agreement but did not linger on the matter of Nuwa, instead asking,

"Junior Brother, what do you think about the rise of the Human Race?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhun Ti Saint slowly said, "Although I do not know why the Human Race is so favored by the Heavenly Dao, the heavenly mechanism is brazenly clear. This is the grand trend of the Heavenly Dao and cannot be violated."

Jie Yin Saint nodded once again, agreeing strongly, "Indeed, the grand trend of the Heavenly Dao cannot be violated!"

"Back when we, the Six Saints, controlled the heavens, the heavenly mechanism was obscure. Now with the rise of the Human Race, the heavenly mechanism is clear."

"If the Demon Clan loses its sense of measure, trying to stop a chariot with a mantis, we Six Saints might as well control the heavens."

Zhun Ti Saint said,

Jie Yin Saint shook his head with a peaceful expression and said, "The Demon Emperor is one of the three highly venerated by the Human Race, and he will not let the Demon Clan do such irrational things. Let us not mention this again."

"The opportunity for our Buddhism might still lie in the matter of the Human Race's rise."

Upon hearing his elder brother's words, Zhun Ti Saint was taken aback, then immediately asked.

"The rise of the Human Race contains a chance for our Buddhism?"

"Naturally."

Jie Yin Saint affirmed firmly.

"Please enlighten me, Brother."

Jie Yin Saint looked at his Junior Brother with sorrow and slowly said.

"The grand trend of the Heavenly Dao, the rise of the Human Race."

"But how the Human Race shall rise, to what extent it shall rise, and what defines flourishing, there is no clear boundary."

"Given the current strength of the Human Race, flourishing seems difficult. Naturally, we should lend them a helping hand."

Upon hearing his brother's words, Zhun Ti Saint's eyes lit up as if he suddenly realized and immediately said.

"If Buddhism embraces the Human Race amidst its rise, it also signifies the rise of Buddhism."

"Moreover, if Buddhism could lead the Human Race, then the prosperity of the Human Race would also be the prosperity of Buddhism."

As Zhun Ti Saint spoke, he grew increasingly excited, joy spreading across his brows.

But then, as if realizing something, he suddenly furrowed his brow and solemnly said, "Brother, this matter may be inappropriate."

Without waiting for Jie Yin Saint's reply, Zhun Ti Saint eagerly said, "Among the Human Race, we have the Human Sect of Fellow Daoist Tai Ching. Our Buddhism likely cannot take the leading position."

"Moreover, Chan Sect and Jie Sect will surely not stand idly by and will reach their hands into the Human Race."

"Besides, there is also Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan and Fellow Daoist Nuwa overseeing. Our planning will not be easy."

When mentioning Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan, a trace of fear flickered in Zhun Ti Saint's eyes.

Although he was defeated by Donghuang Taiyi's Celestial Heaven Star Formation before, it was Emperor Jun who truly induced fear in him.

He feared being suppressed, yet Emperor Jun's schemes left a lingering apprehension in his heart.

Jie Yin Saint's expression remained sorrowful as he slowly said, "The grand trend of the Heavenly Dao, the Human Race shall rise."

"But in my view, the current Human Race resembles a vast piece of benefit, something every faction wishes to partake in."

"And the advantage our Buddhism holds is the poverty of the Western Primordial."

Hearing this, Zhun Ti Saint became even more puzzled, murmuring to himself, "Poverty? Advantage?"
