Chapter 153 Qi Yu fights Hou Tu, the war escalates, and the four major Taoist palaces come out together!
As soon as he seized the source of the black water, Qi Yu rushed out from the Netherworld. He didn’t even pay much attention to the Styx who took advantage of the opportunity, and went to the Zhongzhou battlefield which was in a stalemate, and secretly agreed to support the Fengqishan lineage.

As for the agreement between Qi Yu and Nuwa, it can be roughly divided into two parts:

First, after Qi Yu seized the power of the Netherworld Water Element, he should continue to cooperate with the Fengqishan lineage. The Earth Mother Palace will support him in stabilizing the situation in the Netherworld in this process. Of course, Nuwa, as the descendant of the Earth Emperor, can naturally gain certain benefits from it and further weaken Hou Tu.

The second is that Qi Yu must hold Hou Tu back for a moment for Nuwa at the critical moment so that Nuwa can take advantage of the situation to seize the Wu Tu Dao Palace.

At the moment, the first agreement has been mostly completed, but Qi Yu has not yet completed the second agreement.

At this moment, Nuwa and Houtu were in a stalemate on the battlefield, and it was obviously the “critical moment”.

Considering that he would have to continue cooperating with the Fengqishan lineage in the future, and that Nuwa and others had indeed completely restrained the Twelve Ancestral Witches and bought enough time for themselves, Qi Yu also chose to abide by the agreement and planned to help Nuwa stop Hou Tu.

After all, the Netherworld is not a place that can be easily occupied by either one of his own men or the Xuanmen. If one wants to stabilize the territory that one has carved out in the Netherworld and occupy the Black Water Abyss, then a strong man from the lineage of the Emperor of Earth must participate in it. Only then can it be justified.

With this idea in mind, the next moment, Qi Yu, who appeared on the battlefield in Zhongzhou for the first time, attacked brazenly. At this moment, he was decisive and went straight for Hou Tu!
Qi Yu’s sudden emergence from the Black Water Abyss was completely beyond everyone’s expectations, especially from the perspective of the Witch Clan. It was really inappropriate that Emperor Xishen, who had taken advantage of the situation, did not stabilize the situation and suppress the evil spirits who took the opportunity to cause chaos on the Black Water, but instead confronted Hou Tu.

But no matter how shocked she was, Qi Yu’s attack had already arrived, and Hou Tu could not ignore it. Helplessly, she could only withdraw and no longer try to suppress Nuwa with all her strength, but turned around to fight the enemy.

boom–

With the hasty attack, Houtu suffered a loss. The divine light that protected her body was directly shattered, and she even suffered some minor injuries.

Of course, this was a deliberate and unintentional result.

Seeing this, Nuwa made a prompt decision and did not continue to fight with Houtu. Instead, while maintaining the mountain and sea world to suppress Houtu, she moved towards the Wu Tu Taoist Palace. Her purpose was already very clear.

But at this moment, Hou Tu could no longer care about Nu Wa, because she had already begun to accumulate strength, her divine thoughts locked onto Qi Yu, and was about to deliver the strongest blow –

At this moment, the scene of the Netherworld blood sea around Hou Tu was shaking, and the Netherworld Tao power gave rise to an incomparable strange change. The original pitch-black color that represented the ultimate yin of heaven and earth quickly faded at this moment, and instead, infinite pure white holy light was transformed.

This light, in its holiness, actually reveals a sense of warmth, like the destination of all living beings and the home of all spirits. It bewitches people’s minds and makes people want to sink into it forever.

Qi Yu was all too familiar with this——

This is the original power of reincarnation!

Qi Yu had never imagined that Hou Tu actually thought so highly of him that she even resorted to such a desperate measure to deal with him.

You know, even when she was dealing with Nuwa just now, this Mother of the Netherworld was not so decisive. She actually risked a huge shock in the reincarnation cycle to take such action!
But what he didn’t know was that at this moment, Hou Tu acted so radically for two reasons:
Firstly, it was because she had been in a stalemate with Nuwa for too long, and the foundation of her land had been invaded repeatedly by outsiders, causing heavy losses and successive setbacks, which had obviously damaged her prestige. Even within the Witch Clan, there might be doubts against her in the future.

Because, in order to save the situation, Hou Tu had to use thundering means to capture Qi Yu, the Xishen Emperor who invaded the Black Water Abyss, as quickly as possible, in order to establish her prestige and resolve the downward trend.

As for the second reason, it is because of the authority of reincarnation in Qi Yu’s hands.

Hou Tu is different from Nuwa. As the younger sister in the Palace of the Emperor of Earth and the youngest disciple of the Emperor of Earth Yue Jian, she was obviously the last one to enter the Taoist tradition and become a disciple. Nuwa paid attention to some old things, but Hou Tu might not. Therefore, at the beginning, Hou Tu did not know that the lineage of the Sea God might hold a part of the authority of reincarnation.

But even if she was not clear about this, Hou Tu was not blind after all. She naturally saw through all the methods Qi Yu used after he entered the underworld, and used this to confirm that the latter definitely held the power of the origin of reincarnation that came from nowhere!
As for reincarnation, as the foundation of the Earth Emperor Palace and the fundamental way for Hou Tu to achieve enlightenment in the future, outsiders are absolutely not allowed to interfere with it by any means!

Therefore, at this moment, even if it is necessary to temporarily suspend the suppression of Nuwa, Hou Tu must take the lead in attacking Qi Yu in order to defeat him completely and take back the origin of reincarnation in his hands.

With this idea in mind, Houtu went all out in her attack at this moment. The divine light of reincarnation illuminated the entire world, but it also bound the three thousand great ways. At its core, the reincarnation mill condensed. Under the blessing of the Earth Emperor Seal, the mill destroyed all things and could tear everything apart!
Qi Yu naturally did not dare to take this lightly. He knew too well how powerful reincarnation was. It was the supreme power under the Primordial Chaos that could indestruct anything!

Therefore, even though Hou Tu at this moment only condensed a projection by borrowing the power of the origin of the earth, its power was limited and it was definitely impossible to reach the terrifying height comparable to Hunyuan. Qi Yu still chose to attack with all his strength——

For a moment, the diagram of all rivers returning to their origin unfolded, with surging black water and boundless darkness, symbolizing that the power of the five evil waters was truly stimulated to the extreme at this moment, turning into a sharp edge that froze everything and annihilated everything, as if it was sublimating towards the path of returning to the abyss, destroying all directions, and colliding with the mill of reincarnation!
On one side is the millstone that can erase everything, symbolizing the world as it is, the cycle of life;

On the other side, it is one of the root causes of the world’s destruction that can be achieved by condensing the evil water element and leading to the final destruction.

The encounter between the two was no less than a clash of tit-for-tat, and in an instant, a brilliance that could be called the great nirvana blossomed, tearing apart the chaos and causing all things to collapse at this moment and return to the origin of nirvana.

It was at this moment that Nuwa, who had been dodging aside because Qi Yu took over the battle, took action immediately. She unfolded the map of mountains, rivers, and the country, and used the power of the origin of the primeval earth to stabilize the world of mountains and seas. Otherwise, with just this one blow, the mountains and rivers of Zhongzhou might be shattered and devastated.

In this way, the power of Guixu and the power of Samsara were deadlocked above Zhongzhou at this moment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nuwa maintained the mountain and sea realm and protected Zhongzhou. On the other hand, she began to try to enter the Wu Tu Taoist Palace and merge her spirit with the original fetus of the Great Dao to determine her fate as the master of the Taoist Palace.

Seeing this, Hou Tu became very anxious. Even though she did not necessarily need the Wu Tu Dao Palace in front of her, she still did not want Nuwa to succeed. For this reason, she even further drew on the power of the origin of the underworld to strengthen her offensive and shatter Qi Yu’s Guixu power.

But Qi Yu has the two major bases of Tianhe and Black Water Abyss behind him, and his divine power is also inexhaustible.

The two powerful Heavenly Lords fought with all their might in the sky for thousands of times in a short period of time. Their divine power was so boundless that the earth, water, fire and wind were all surging. The power to destroy the world was compressed into a single move, and even the void was annihilated!

The power of the netherworld is obviously stronger. Hou Tu used the backhand at all costs, while Qi Yu could only simulate it. In the battle, the former obviously had the advantage. But Qi Yu’s methods were also extraordinary. Even if he could not mobilize the real Guixu origin for a while, he still had the endless Tianhe origin and the vast Black Water Abyss. Even if the quality was inferior and not perfect, it was still more in quantity!

For a moment, using quantity to offset quality made Qi Yu’s momentum as stable as Mount Tai, and Hou Tu could not find any flaws at all, let alone advance even half a step.

As a result, the situation on the battlefield became extremely unfavorable for the Witch Clan.

You have to know that Qi Yu has the Map of the Return of All Rivers to their Origins in his hand, and the innate treasure is his biggest advantage. Moreover, even if his cultivation is slightly inferior to Hou Tu at this time, Qi Yu’s realm is still leading. There is no such huge gap between the two as outsiders imagine.

Besides, Hou Tu didn’t have any treasure in her hands after all, and the Earth Emperor Seal now relied on the Origin of the Netherworld to maintain its status quo. The Origin of the Netherworld was no different from other things, and it could not be withdrawn infinitely under unusual circumstances of reincarnation.

Therefore, once there is a problem in the extraction of the origin of the Netherworld and it cannot keep up with the rhythm of the war, Hou Tu will immediately fall into a disadvantage.

Hou Tu became more and more anxious about this, and this anxiety affected the other ancestor witches, making them more and more violent.

But even so, the situation was difficult to reverse. Fuxi was still holding back the four great witch ancestors. Even though his power was being consumed more and more rapidly, he did not retreat at all. The powerful men in Fengqi Mountain and its many allies were also fighting to the death. This bought Nuwa very precious time.

Finally, when Goddess Tianhuang was gradually defeated by Dijiang’s all-out attack and showed signs of retreat, Nuwa finally made a breakthrough.

At the critical moment, the Mother of Earth finally showed her power. She was no longer obsessed with taking this opportunity to seize the throne of the Emperor of Earth directly. Instead, she chose to take it slowly, combining the illusory Dao fruit that she had condensed with the innate Dao fruit. She finally broke through the obstacles and successfully took down the Dao Embryo in the Wu Tu Dao Palace!

Of course, after obtaining the Dao Embryo, Nuwa had no time to refine it. Seeing that Niangniang Tianhuang was in a critical situation at this moment, she immediately chose to withdraw and fight back. She suppressed the urge to merge with the Dao and gathered together with Niangniang Tianhuang to attack Dijiang.

Dijiang is indeed slightly stronger than Tianhuang Niangniang, who can only deal with Chidi with the help of his relics. But compared with Nuwa, he has no obvious advantages.

At this moment, Nuwa and Tianhuang Niangniang attacked together. Dijiang was naturally no match for them and was immediately repelled, with his true body concealed by endless void.

After seeing this scene, Hou Tu finally couldn’t help it.

“How hateful!!”

At this moment, Hou Tu was about to bite her teeth to pieces. Although Nuwa had only taken down the Dao Embryo and had not had time to truly refine it, judging from the current situation, things seemed to make no difference. At least, the ownership of the Wu Tu Dao Palace had been decided.

Unless Hou Tu and the Wu Clan still have the strength to break through the layers of blockades and kill Nuwa directly, otherwise, Hou Tu will no longer have any chance!

Thinking of this, Hou Tu and other powerful witches had already begun to have some thoughts of retreating. Even though they were unwilling, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were still clear-headed enough to know that there were still four innate Taoist palaces left to fight for.

For the sake of the future, the Witch Clan must occupy one of the castles in order to maintain a balance of power with the Demon Clan. Immediately, they wanted to retreat and reconsider the matter.

However, just when a group of powerful witches were looking for an opportunity to retreat and seek another way out, suddenly, there was another huge earthquake between heaven and earth. It seemed that the fact that the Dao Embryo of the Wu Earth Dao Palace had a master triggered some kind of chain reaction. At this moment, the four innate Dao Palaces of Gold, Water, Wood and Fire were also born one after another!

At once, changes occurred in all four directions.

In the west, the energy of Gengjin is everywhere, like the roar of weapons, and the murderous aura shakes the ten directions.

To the north of Buzhou, the Milky Way shook, and the power of water gushed out, sweeping between heaven and earth.

In the easternmost land, the holy land of Qingmu, all things grow, vitality overflows, and the universe trembles.

In the Tiannan Continent, where a hundred thousand volcanoes are located, the Fire Palace was born and all the fires came to worship it, boiling the sea and burning the sky.

Seeing this, let alone the Witch Clan, even the powerful gods who were far away from Zhongzhou and had not participated in the war could no longer suppress their thoughts and took action.

However, they did not descend on the Zhongzhou battlefield, but instead rushed towards all directions. Obviously, they were trying to fight for the remaining four Taoist palaces.

Among them, there were even powerful ones such as the Demon Emperor Di Jun, the Pure Yang Emperor Dong Wanggong, and the North Sea Kunpeng Ancestor, who all died at this moment, and the speed was simply astonishing.

Faced with such changes, the battle between the Wu Clan and Fengqi Mountain suddenly came to a halt. Immediately, Fuxi stopped suppressing the four great ancestor witches, but withdrew to Nuwa to protect her. Houtu and Qi Yu also withdrew their hands, unwilling to continue wasting time here. As if they had already had a tacit understanding, many powerful men went towards their own goals.

Like the Wu Clan, they chose the west and rushed to the Jinxing Taoist Palace. If nothing unexpected happens, Rushou will probably take advantage of this and seize the Xiantian Taoist Palace.

At this moment, Qi Yu was aiming at the Shuiyuan Taoist Palace in the north of Buzhou Mountain. Wangshu, Queen Mother of the West, Wenjia Daojun and other powerful men had no attachment to their opponents at all. They followed Qi Yu and rushed towards the battlefield of Shuiyuan Taoist Palace in the north.

For a moment, the battlefield in Zhongzhou, which was originally raging with flames, was suddenly reduced to only a part of the Fengqishan faction. Only a few people including Fuxi were left guarding outside the ancestral orifice where the Wu Tu Taoist Palace was located.

The rest of the strong men also rushed to the north of Mount Buzhou under Fuxi’s command to support Qi Yu and others on the Shuiyuan Dao Palace battlefield.

I slept so well on Sunday that the alarm clock didn’t wake me up, so I overslept. But there is still one chapter to go, so I will finish it as soon as possible.
