Multiverse Skill System

Page 410

Something's not right here! Houtu has taken a liking to me? At most, it's just a slight attraction. People in the prehistoric world are very simple-minded, and Houtu is even more so. In reality, I'm probably just a friend to her, but she's a little confused about it.

"This is the system you need. Take out the card!"

He took out the system he had just acquired. It was still in the shape of a ball of light, but obviously, the system at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal gave people a more profound feeling. As for the system at the level of a Quasi-Saint, it goes without saying that even if the appearance is the same, as long as you see it, you can understand its value in your heart.

Ten systems capable of cultivating Great Luo Golden Immortals and two systems capable of cultivating Quasi-Saints, a total of twelve system orbs of light, floated in the room, illuminating the entire room brightly.

"Here you go, this is the value card."

The other Ancestral Witches began to watch the system, while Houtu walked up to Yi Shuihan and took out the card with a balance of over 50.

Such a precious value card was not kept by Dijiang but by Houtu, which shows that Houtu's status among the Twelve Ancestral Witches is very special.

After spending a few seconds deducting the points from the value card, Yi Shuihan returned the value card to Houtu.

"Here, make sure you keep it safe. I only recognize cards, not witchcraft!"

It was clearly a joke. Houtu just smiled and put away the value card without even looking at the balance of value points. Then she just looked at Yi Shuihan, and Yi Shuihan instantly felt a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you go and acknowledge a system as your master?"

Pointing to the system over there, Yi Shuihan decided to change his mind.

Houtu saw through Yi Shuihan's intentions but did not expose him. Instead, she asked, "Since you already have a system, is it possible to recognize another system as your master? I mean, can Brother Dijiang recognize another quasi-saint system as his master?"

"this one?"

Yi Shuihan had not expected Houtu to ask this question, and he was not quite sure himself, so he quickly asked the Holy Spirit.

"Of course you can, but that would overwrite the previous system. That's only possible because the two systems are the same type."

So that's what they were planning. Does having valuable points mean you can be reckless? 1000 points—no, even 994 points—are nothing to them.

Chapter 1034, The Truth Is Overthinking

Not to mention Dijiang and the others, even Yi Shuihan doesn't care about these mere 994 contribution points now. When he first came to the Primordial World, he only had 500 contribution points, and he felt a little sad.

If the same thing happened to the Witch Clan a few more times, he would be laughing in his dreams. However, he also knew that the chances of such a thing happening again were slim. Even the Demon Clan, which was currently vying for supremacy with the Witch Clan, could not possibly have such a valuable treasure trove.

The number of demons far exceeds that of the witches, but they are not as united as the witches. If the witches are united by blood ties, the demons are forced together by the Demon Emperor, and most of them have their own agendas.

A large quantity does not necessarily mean that the demon race's treasure trove contains many good things.

When the demons find something good, their first thought is always for themselves. They only hand over things they don't need or might not need for a long time. The latter is mostly because they are afraid of being discovered hoarding things.

The Wu tribe is different. The treasures they collect are all put into a treasury and distributed uniformly. There is no private hoarding. In comparison, it is clear how much of the treasure in the demon tribe's treasury is actually worthless.

Furthermore, compared to the demon race, the witch race is not as reliant on those rare and precious materials, or rather, most of the rare and precious materials in the prehistoric world are useless to the witch race, while the demon race needs to consume rare and precious materials to improve their cultivation, so it is a zero-sum game.

"Thinking about it this way, it's questionable whether the demon race's treasure vault even has 20 value points!"

Yi Shuihan's ambition to seize the demon clan's treasure trove seemed like daydreaming to Houtu, but she didn't mind. She simply watched Yi Shuihan quietly with gentle eyes. As the ancestral witch of earth, Houtu was the gentlest and most tolerant of all the ancestral witches, with a broad mind. Her gaze was so gentle that it was easy for people to develop a liking for her.

The room wasn't large either. The other Ancestral Witches had heard what Yi Shuihan had said earlier. Di Jiang had recognized the only two Quasi-Saint-level systems as his masters, overwriting the original systems.

There was a small problem when the system was covered. The spiritual energy in his body began to go berserk. However, the spiritual energy chaos was only at the Golden Immortal level and posed no danger to his Quasi-Saint level body. In fact, this novel experience made him feel somewhat comfortable.

After Dijiang, the other Ancestral Witches also successively recognized the system as their master, all of them being at the Great Luo Golden Element level. In the end, a Quasi-Saint level was left behind, which was undoubtedly left for Houtu.

"Big brother, let's go out and find that little demon to kill! I've been wanting to experience the feeling of my cultivation level increasing like crazy for a long time."

"How about we have a competition to see who can become a Great Luo Golden Immortal first?"

"Let's have a competition. Whoever loses has to agree to one thing for the other."

The other Ancestral Witches left the room after talking, leaving only Yi Shuihan, Houtu, and the remaining Quasi-Saint level system.

When Yi Shuihan came to her senses, she felt something was very strange and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Something's not right! I actually spaced out, and for so long? Was it an accident or was I affected by something? If something like this happened suddenly during a battle, even if it was only a fraction of a breath, it would be a huge disadvantage."

Thinking of this possibility, Yi Shuihan's mood suddenly became heavy.

The first culprit that Yi Shuihan thought of was the Heavenly Dao, because only the Heavenly Dao had the ability to influence him silently.

"Is the Holy Spirit the Way of Heaven?"

"No."

"why?"

Do you really want me to say it?

"Tell me! Tell me the answer."

Yi Shuihan did not notice the strangeness of the Holy Spirit's tone.

"The real reason is that you're overthinking it."

"What?"

"You're overthinking it. This is a natural human phenomenon. When you fantasize about a scenario you desire, your emotions fluctuate, and you enter a state of self-delusion. The external manifestation of this is being in a daze. A more fitting description would be daydreaming."

Yi Shuihan stood there for a full three seconds, then silently severed his connection with the Holy Spirit.

This was truly embarrassing. Yi Shuihan genuinely hadn't expected that he had overthought things; his moment of blankness was simply a normal occurrence.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

Meeting Houtu's questioning gaze, Yi Shuihan tried his best to speak calmly.

"Are you leaving already? You're only just arriving. You didn't stay long last time either. Why don't you stay here for a while this time and experience the hospitality of the Wu tribe?"

Houtu pleaded with her to stay.

Stay? Yi Shuihan didn't actually mind staying in the Wu Clan for a while, but if he really stayed, he was afraid his future days wouldn't be peaceful.

Just as I was thinking about how to refuse, a thunderous roar rang in my ears.

"Dijiang, you dare?"

Houtu's expression changed drastically.

"It's the voice of the Demon Emperor Jun. No, I have to go and see."

"Let's go together!"

Houtu nodded, then flew away.

Above the void,

Apart from Houtu, the eleven Ancestral Witches were all gathered together. On the other side was the army of the Demon Clan, led by a man exuding domineering aura, the Demon Emperor Jun, who had roared earlier.

Beside the Demon Emperor Jun was Donghuang Taiyi, who possessed the innate treasure Chaos Bell. He was Jun's younger brother, and both were among the most powerful figures in the prehistoric world.

In addition, there were nine Great Luo Golden Immortal level demons behind them. They were the ninth of the Ten Great Demon Saints under Di Jun's command, namely Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Dan, Fei Lian, Jiu Ying, Shang Yang, Bai Ze, Qin Yuan, and Ci Tie. There was also a demon saint named Gui Che, who had just been killed by Di Jiang. This was the reason for Di Jun's roar.

"Dijiang, does your Wu clan want to start a war with my demon clan?"

Di Jun was furious and questioned him. He was very annoyed by the death of Gui Che. Gui Che was a great general under his command. A Great Luo Golden Immortal is not easy to find.

"Let's start a war then, little bird, do you think we're afraid of you?"

Zhu Rong said disdainfully. The other ancestral witches remained silent, but their expressions were also indifferent. The witch clan was not afraid of the demon clan.

If it weren't for the reactions of other powerful beings, the Witch Clan would have already launched a full-scale war against the Demon Clan, declaring who the true protagonist of the primordial world was.

Even without a system and the inability to cultivate immortality, the Ancestral Witches knew that powerful beings like the Three Pure Ones would not want to see the Witch Clan become the sole dominant force.

Chapter 1035, The Lich's First Battle

The Wu Clan hesitated to wage war against the Demon Clan because they were wary of other powerful beings. As for the Demon Clan, Emperor Jun, as the Demon King, knew his own situation and knew that it was too early to wage war against the Wu Clan. First of all, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were an insurmountable obstacle.

Di Jun knew that the overall strength of the demon race was inferior to that of the witch race. His idea was to stall for time. The longer the time was delayed, the more demons there would be, and the stronger they would become, thus increasing their chances of winning against the witch race.

Of course, while the grand finale is not going to break out, small-scale battles are not a concern. For the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan, small-scale battles are equivalent to training exercises for both sides. Before today, everyone was relatively in sync, and at least no Great Luo Golden Immortals had fallen, and even Golden Immortals rarely died.

Di Jun had no idea what had gotten into Di Jiang. He had actually come to the battlefield today, grabbed Gui Che, and killed Gui Che the moment Di Jun noticed him.

The real reason was that Dijiang and the others had obtained the system and wanted to experience the feeling of rapidly increasing their strength. They happened to come out and saw Guiche kill an ordinary member of the Wu clan. Guiche was unlucky. Normally, he would have been fine killing an ordinary member of the Wu clan, but this time the Ancestral Witches saw it. Moreover, the Ancestral Witches came out to kill a demon with high cultivation.

"Big brother, let's start the war!"

Donghuang Taiyi took out the Chaos Bell, and the aura of a Quasi-Saint erupted. The Chaos Bell responded to its master, and invisible fluctuations burst forth in the void. Strange illusions were born in the void, which were chaotic scenes that did not yet exist in the primordial continent, giving people an ancient and boundless feeling.

Zhu Rong called Di Jun a little bird, which enraged Di Jun. However, as an emperor, he managed to control his emotions, but his younger brother, Donghuang Taiyi, was the one who exploded first.

For Donghuang Taiyi, he would rather die than see his brother humiliated.

"Come on! I'm not afraid of you."

Before Di Jun could make up his mind, Zhu Rong had already activated her Ancestral Witch True Form and rushed over, her enormous flames turning the sky red.

In an instant, Donghuang Taiyi and Zhurong clashed. Zhurong controlled the fire of the south, while Donghuang Taiyi, as a three-legged golden crow, also wielded the powerful flame of the sun. In the battle of fire, it was difficult for either side to gain the upper hand.

When Yi Shuihan and Houtu arrived at the scene, they witnessed Zhu Rong being frozen in place for a moment by Donghuang Taiyi's Chaos Bell, and then being sent flying by a single blow.

The power of the Chaos Bell is too great. Without the Chaos Bell, Donghuang Taiyi would be lucky to deal with one Ancestral Witch. With the Chaos Bell, he can withstand three Ancestral Witches. Only four Ancestral Witches can defeat him.

Although Di Jun is the Demon Emperor, in reality, if they were to actually fight, he might not be able to defeat Donghuang Taiyi, who wields the Chaos Bell.

Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, working together, could barely deal with six Ancestral Witches, which is half of the Ancestral Witches. With the addition of Nuwa and Fuxi, they could barely contend with the twelve Ancestral Witches, but they were still at a disadvantage in terms of high-level power.

If a real fight breaks out, the deaths of Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi could drag several Ancestral Witches down with them, which is something Di Jiang is worried about.

Seeing that Zhu Rong was at a disadvantage, Xi Zi and Tian Wu immediately rushed out, creating a three-on-one situation, and the two sides finally balanced out.

The sounds of battle echoed through the sky, causing the heavens and earth to tremble. This commotion reached the ears of all the famous powerful beings in the prehistoric world, who all turned their attention to the scene.

Kunlun Mountains

"Brother, it's that group of witches again. They're arrogant and domineering just because they're descendants of Pangu. They disrespect the Heavenly Dao and only know how to fight. Those two little birds, Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, are also restless. They actually want to dominate the prehistoric world. Where do they put us, the true descendants of Pangu,?"

Yuan Shi said angrily, as he had no good feelings towards either the Wu Clan or the Demon Clan.

"What if the Witch Clan wins? Should we intervene to stop them from killing Di Jun?"

He sought the Dao from the heavens.

"Di Jun cannot die now."

Lao Tzu made a simple statement, thus revealing his attitude.

North Sea,

The enormous body of the Kunpeng was hidden at the bottom of the North Sea. Its wounds had not yet healed, and its eyes were fixed on the direction of the war between the Lich King and the Demon King. After sensing Yi Shuihan's aura, the enormous body rolled over and roared, causing countless creatures living around it to suffer an undeserved disaster.

In the Netherworld Blood Sea, the Styx River raises its head, surrounded by countless blood clones, exuding a chilling aura.

At Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi muttered, "These are turbulent times."

Fire Cloud Cave, Red Clouds...

"The Chaos Bell, I wonder how many contribution points it can be exchanged for. This is a treasure that even saints covet. You probably can't get it for less than ten thousand!"

I had often heard about the power of the Chaos Bell before, but now Yi Shuihan has truly witnessed it. Donghuang Taiyi, who wields the Chaos Bell, is almost defying the heavens. With a spacetime seal, he directly immobilized two Ancestral Witches. No wonder it takes three Ancestral Witches to fight him.

At this stage, even the Three Pure Ones would have to give way to Donghuang Taiyi, since they have not yet obtained the other two great innate treasures, the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner, which are on par with the Chaos Bell.

"Dijun, how about we join in the fun too?"

Dijiang spoke to Dijun.

Di Jun's expression was uncertain, but he seemed to sense something and calmed down, finally accepting Di Jiang's challenge.

At this moment, Di Jiang's challenge was something Di Jun had no choice but to accept. If he did not accept the challenge under these circumstances, what would the other demon races think? His power as the demon emperor would be greatly reduced.

"Are those Nuwa and Fuxi?"

Yi Shuihan's gaze pierced through the layers of void and saw a man and a woman. He recognized their identities. Di Jun must have sensed their arrival before he felt at ease fighting Di Jiang.

"Who is that Taoist priest? He's standing with Houtu. I've never seen him before."

“Sister, don’t underestimate him. He is the villain who chased Kunpeng 10 years ago. His Taoist name is Taiyi. I hope he won’t side with the Wu Clan this time.”

Fuxi was skilled in calculation and calculated some vague information about what happened when Yi Shuihan came to this world.

Back then, Yi Shuihan's pursuit of Kunpeng was known throughout the prehistoric world. However, they were only limited to knowing that Kunpeng was being hunted by a powerful figure, who was still unfamiliar to them. If Yi Shuihan were actually in front of them, unless Yi Shuihan revealed his aura, it would be difficult for them to recognize him immediately.

Chapter 1036, Calamity and the Third Lecture

"Spatial types are indeed very troublesome!"

With her attention shifted away from Nuwa and Fuxi, Yi Shuihan multitasked, observing the battle between Dijiang and Dijun while also keeping an eye on the battlefield of Donghuang Taiyi on the other side.

Dijiang's fighting style is very simple: relying on his spatial speed, he constantly moves around and attacks Dijun. His figure can be seen in almost a small patch of sky. He appears and disappears unpredictably, and no one knows where he will appear next.

As the Demon Emperor, Di Jun was no less powerful. His Solar True Fire distorted the space around him, and Di Jiang dared not stay near him for long.
