As a time traveler, he knew that Saint Xiyue would be executed by Emperor Jun next, and her soul would be sealed in the Great Sun Palace.
Hou Yi's words can be regarded as unintentional.
Of course, this is a part of the historical process. Shen Lang cannot change history without authorization and can only let it develop.
Hou Yi was wanted by both the Lich and Lich clans, and he did not want to implicate Shen Lang. After recovering from his injuries, he said goodbye to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang also left Tianlei Mountain.
He first used the space escape technique of the ancient Leihuanglong, a spiritual beast, to go around to the seaside border on the east side of the Wood Witch Clan. Then he concealed himself and easily entered the Wood Clan using the Demon Clan's ban-breaking token given to him by Hou Yi.
Within the occupied area of the Wu Clan.
A few days later, a small-scale team battle broke out between the Wood Witch Clan and the Monster Clan in the occupied areas at their respective borders.
Shen Lang took advantage of the chaos and slipped into the territory of the Wood Witch Clan.
I learned that Kuafu of the Wood Witch Clan is sitting in the Wood Temple.
Shen Lang immediately went to the Temple of Wood.
After a lot of trouble, I finally met the great wizard Kuafu.
Kuafu was very surprised that Shen Lang appeared again. After all, it had been hundreds of thousands of years since he last saw Shen Lang.
Although Shen Lang only stayed in the gray world for a few months, hundreds of thousands of years have passed in the outside world, and the changes have been huge.
Under Kuafu's questioning, Shen Lang told the whole story, and revealed that he had entered the gray world on the orders of the goddess and the twelve ancestral witches. Now that his mission was completed, he had to rush to the Pangu Temple to return to his life.
"Little friend Shen Lang, are you going to Pangu Temple?" Kuafu asked with a frown.
"Why, can't we go to Pangu Temple?" Shen Lang couldn't help but ask.
Kuafu shook his head and said: "That's not the reason. The main reason is that the twelve ancestors blocked the Pangu Temple. Now even the entire Lei Xiaze is shrouded in a powerful restriction, and no one can get close."
"Despite this, you are going to return to life after all. The twelve ancestors may be able to sense your existence and maybe let you in."
"It's just that we have to sit here and cannot take you to Pangu Temple in person. You need to make this trip by yourself."
After that, Kuafu took out a jade slip, burned some contents, handed it to Shen Lang, and said: "This jade slip can be used as our guarantee for you to ensure that there is no one on your way to Pangu Temple."
People are blocking you."
"Thank you so much, Master Kuafu!" Shen Lang took the jade slip and expressed his thanks with his fists in his hands.
Before leaving the Temple of Wood, Shen Lang did not forget to release the Black Dragon King and the top ten powerful souls from the Dinghai Fritillaria.
Shen Lang originally wanted Kuafu to settle down the soul monks he brought from the gray world, but the soul army headed by the Black Dragon King and the ten strongest soul clans were not very willing to submit to the Wood Witch Clan. For the time being, they just wanted to
Follow Shen Lang.
"Everyone, Shen has many enemies in the True Immortal Realm. If you follow me, it will be more dangerous." Shen Lang said helplessly.
Kuafu thought of a compromise and said: "I think it's better to do this. Fellow Taoists from the Soul Clan will temporarily live in the Wood Witch Clan. We will not ask you to participate in our clan's battles."
"After Fellow Daoist Shen returns, you can still choose whether to follow him or not. For now, just treat our clan as your temporary residence."
As soon as these words came out, the Soul Clan monks were still hesitant.
Shen Lang said: "I think that's what we should do. Don't worry, God Kuafu is upright and just, and he will not make things difficult for you."
"Furthermore, Shen is used to being alone, and is not suitable for bringing a group of people. You can live in the Wood Witch Clan first, and then decide to stay or leave after you understand some of the conditions in the fairy world."
Everyone in the Soul Clan looked at each other in disbelief, and finally agreed.
After settling the Soul Clan monks, Shen Lang left the Temple of Wood.
With the jade slip certificate given by Kuafu, he can move freely within the territory of the Wu clan.
A few days later, they arrived near Lei Xiaze of the Water Witch Clan.
At this time, Lei Xiaze was covered in dazzling golden light. From a distance, a huge golden light pillar could be seen rising from Lei Xiaze, reaching straight into the sky, which was particularly spectacular.
The entire water shaman clan is illuminated by this golden light, and there is no longer any distinction between day and night.
Not long after, Shen Lang arrived at Lei Xiaze's lakeside.
Just then.
"Buzz buzz!"
The Chaos Divine Stone in his body suddenly roared.
"This is... Pangu's divine power?"
Shen Lang frowned. He could sense the resonance caused by the Pangu divine power remaining in the Chaos Divine Stone and the golden beam of light.
What kind of formation did the twelve ancestral witches want to form, and actually wanted to activate Pangu's divine power?
Just when he was surprised.
A white light suddenly flashed over Leixiaze Lake, condensing into the figure of a girl.
It is Nuwa, the goddess of the witch tribe.
"Son of the Way of Heaven, your return is much earlier than I expected." Nuwa said calmly, her eyes fixed on Shen Lang.
"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my destiny. I successfully brought back what the goddess and the twelve witch ancestors needed from the gray world!" Shen Lang said, cupping his fists.
"oh?"
Nuwa looked slightly moved and said, "Come in and talk."
As soon as she finished speaking, Nuwa blew out a white whirlwind.
The white whirlwind immediately wrapped around Shen Lang's body and flew into Leixia Ze.
After passing through layers of restrictive barriers, Shen Lang arrived outside Pangu Temple.
Stopping outside Pangu Temple, he saw an astonishing scene!
A golden formation formed above Pangu Temple.
And in the center of the formation, there was a dazzling golden light egg floating.
It is the egg of God!
These are not the key points. The key point is that the souls of the twelve witch ancestors are surrounding the surface of the God's Egg, absorbing the power in the God's Egg and merging at the same time.
I saw the anti-complexes of the twelve witch ancestors constantly changing their forms, sometimes turning into a headless giant, sometimes turning into a three-legged monster, and sometimes turning into an indescribable monster.
"What on earth is this..."
Shen Lang was stunned.
Nuwa said bluntly: "As you can see, the souls of the twelve ancestors are trying to merge into one and reshape the original soul power of the Father God. This is also the first step to reorganize the true body of the Father God."
"Reorganize Pangu's true body? Could this be the formation of the Twelve Heavenly Gods?" Shen Lang's expression changed drastically.
"Yes, it seems you already know about this."
Nuwa nodded and continued to explain: "To be precise, this is not the true form of the Twelve Heavenly Gods Formation. It is just some preparations made in advance by the twelve ancestors in order to reorganize the true form of the Father God."
Shen Lang was shocked.
He knew that there was no point in delving into this matter, so he asked about the egg of God: "May I ask the goddess, why has the egg of God not hatched yet?"
Nuwa said frankly: "Instead of placing our hopes on the Son of God born from the Egg of God, it is better to seize its power and use it for ourselves."
"This egg is extremely energetic. It can not only provide strength to the twelve ancestors, but also serve as the energy source for the twelve heavenly gods and evil formations. As long as the twelve ancestors can successfully form the true form of Father God, they can defeat the monsters themselves. It’s a no brainer.”
Only then did Shen Lang realize that he had been deceived.
The reason why Nuwa wanted to use the Egg of God was because she had no intention of hatching the Son of God from the Egg of God. She just wanted to use the power of the Egg of God to achieve the purpose of the witch clan.
Nuwa seemed to have seen what Shen Lang was thinking, and sighed: "Son of Heaven, we did not intentionally deceive you, everything was done out of necessity."
"We want to prevent disaster from happening, but we don't want to place our hopes on others, so we implement this strategy."
"But you can rest assured that we will not embarrass you, let alone cause trouble to you, the son of heaven. You only need to hand over the God's Axe, and you can leave the Witch Clan."
