Chapter 80

The Purple Mansion's Clear Heart Lamp burned with a fierce true fire, forming a thick protective layer that enveloped Ding Yue.

Looking ahead, a storm raged, its violent power making Ding Yue's heart tremble, constantly eroding the lamp's protection, causing the flames to flicker and crackle loudly.

*Bang!*

A loud noise echoed as a fierce storm surged, making it impossible for Ding Yue to withstand, sending him flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ding Yue could not afford to delay. He fully activated the treasure lamp, his mind focused, determined in a direction, and with a flash of green light, he charged forward fiercely.

Ding Yue's body was enveloped in green light as he pushed through the storm, but the journey was fraught with difficulties. The storm's ferocity made the treasure lamp struggle, the light flickering, and in the blink of an eye, it was only a thin layer.

Suddenly, a jade talisman appeared in Ding Yue's hand, emitting a hazy green light, crystal clear and translucent.

Ding Yue hurriedly activated it, the jade talisman trembling, and patterns appeared on its surface. A mysterious aura flashed, and a beam of green light shone, illuminating the path ahead.

Instantly, the storm in front of Ding Yue paused, its power greatly diminished.

Ding Yue was overjoyed, and with a flash of green light, he charged through.

The storm continued to rage, tearing apart mountains for hundreds of miles, turning them into sand.

The damage from the spatial rupture was immense, and even though the laws of heaven and earth were repairing it, it would take a long time to recover.

Suddenly, a loud *bang* echoed, and a hazy green light overflowed from a corner of the storm. In an instant, the green light moved, breaking through the storm.

With the green light moving, Ding Yue finally broke free from the storm, escaping. Even with the treasure protecting him, he was in a sorry state, suffering significant injuries!

"Die!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the side, and a towering figure appeared beside Ding Yue, a massive fist whistling through the air, heading straight for him.

"Looking for death!"

Ding Yue was furious, seeing that the attacker was just one of the eighty-one Golden Immortal commanders, daring to ambush him?

The jade talisman in his hand, still glowing green, shone on the attacker, and instantly, the attacker froze, unable to move.

"Ah!"

The Golden Immortal was horrified, realizing he was immobilized. He shouted, his divine power surging, but it was suppressed by the green light.

"Die!"

Ding Yue's voice, filled with killing intent, echoed, and the Golden Immortal felt the green light inside him turn, instantly dissipating his divine power.

Then, his mind went black, and he lost consciousness.

Ding Yue did not spare a glance at the Golden Immortal, whose soul had been extinguished, but instead looked at the battlefield.

The battle between the Great Emperors was extensive and immensely destructive. If both sides had not exercised some control, tens of thousands of miles would have been reduced to ruins.

But even so, the area within thousands of miles was devastated, with mountains collapsing and rivers drying up.

However, the situation on their side was not optimistic. The two great witches from the era of the Witches and Demons were incredibly powerful, overwhelming the three human emperors. Each punch and kick shattered the sky, divine power surging, and the earth trembling.

As for the armies on both sides, they had ceased fighting and retreated to safe areas.

Ding Yue moved and returned to his own army.

"Retreat the army!"

Frowning, Ding Yue said to the many human generals.

"Understood!"

The generals looked at each other, nodded, and quickly left, commanding the army to retreat.

"This battle is probably irretrievable." Shuangjiao said as he approached.

Ding Yue thought for a moment and said, "The two of you return with the army. Once the army is settled, return to Potala Island."

Jinjiao nodded and left with the army, breaking through the air.

On the opposite side, Chiyou's expression changed when he saw Ding Yue's army retreating, but he ultimately did not pursue.

"Master?"

Chiyou looked at Ding Yue's figure and muttered to himself.

After calculating, Chiyou realized that his side had suffered heavy losses, losing several Great Sages.

The battle between the Great Emperors did not last long. The two great witches were unstoppable. First, the great witch Fengbo manipulated the spatial storm, breaking through Cangjie's defense and punching him to the ground.

*Puff!*

Cangjie's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his clothes stained with blood.

"Not good!"

On the other side, Fuxi's eyes narrowed, sighed, and quickly flew to Cangjie's side with the Human Emperor, blocking the murderous great witch.

"Go!"

The Human Emperor's face was heavy, and he said, looking at Fuxi, then moved, breaking through the air and leaving.

"Hmph! Want to run?"

The great witch Yushi coldly snorted and stepped forward to chase them.

At that moment, a mysterious ripple suddenly appeared in the void.

The great witch paused, pondered for a moment, and stopped.

In the imperial palace, the Human Emperor's face was heavy, looking at the injured Cangjie and his own disheveled appearance, feeling a deep sadness and frustration.

Fuxi and Cangjie also had somber expressions, with no good solutions.

"Must our human race really be reduced to the fate of pawns, unable to act independently?" Lieshan sighed and said.

"Our human race has only recently risen, and although the witch race has declined, they still retain a core strength, far beyond what our human race can resist." Cangjie said with a sad expression.

Ding Yue, sitting below, knew that even without the two great witches, there were still many great witches and witch elites in the underworld, all of whom could change the current balance of power in the three realms.

Moreover, there was still an Ancestral Witch hiding somewhere, and the human race had nothing to resist them.

The Human Emperor in the imperial palace still had no good solutions, but the outside world was in an uproar, with the three realms amazed by the witch race's displayed combat power, all discussing it.

The Jiuli army marched toward the imperial capital, and the human tribes along the way had no resistance, fearing Chiyou even more, and many surrendered. Those who refused to surrender migrated far away, leaving their homeland.

Although the Human Emperor sent many armies to block them, without the participation of Great Emperors, they still could not resist, suffering continuous defeats.

Within the Jiuli army, a witch army of ten thousand appeared, with astonishing combat power, invincible.

"Ah!!!"

In the imperial capital, Lieshan let out a long, mournful cry to the sky!

The entire human race was filled with sorrow, everyone grieving.

In the Youxiong tribe, Xuanyuan had already grown up, becoming the leader of the Youxiong tribe, his reputation spreading far and wide.

When the news of the battle between the Human Emperor and Chiyou reached the Youxiong tribe, Xuanyuan immediately prepared his army, declaring his intention to resist Chiyou and support the Human Emperor.

Immediately, responses came from all directions, and Xuanyuan gathered an army, heading to the front lines to engage Chiyou's army.

Lieshan summoned Xuanyuan.

Ding Yue also met Xuanyuan and found that he was a person of great destiny, tall and handsome, with a noble and heroic demeanor.

Xuanyuan was very respectful to Ding Yue, bowing as he saw him: "Youxiong Xuanyuan pays respects to Master."

"Please rise quickly."

Ding Yue did not act superior, quickly helping Xuanyuan up, as the latter was the next Human Emperor.

"Hmph!"

At that moment, a light snort came, and Ding Yue saw that it was Chijizi of the Chan Sect, looking at him with a difficult expression.

Beside him, many Chan Sect disciples looked at him coldly, except for Yunzhongzi and Lingbao Dafa Shi, who smiled and nodded slightly.

Ding Yue smiled, not caring, and nodded to Yunzhongzi and Lingbao Dafa Shi.

Finally, Lieshan summoned Xuanyuan alone for a detailed discussion.

Although Guangchengzi was somewhat dissatisfied, he did not stop it. Although he was Xuanyuan's teacher, Xuanyuan had already grown up and had his own ideas, and he could not control him.

"Brother, how have you been recently?"

Finding an opportunity, Yunzhongzi and Lingbao Dafa Shi visited Ding Yue's residence.

"How can I be well when the human race is in such great danger?"

To his two good friends, Ding Yue did not hide his feelings, forcing a smile.

Yunzhongzi smiled and said, "Our senior masters and uncles are all wise, the human race will be fine."

Lingbao Dafa Shi also nodded in agreement.

"Ah..."

Ding Yue sighed, although they were close friends, their positions were different, and their views were different.

"Brother, don't worry too much. Such a great trend is beyond our control, thinking too much will only hurt your spirit."

Yunzhongzi was very relaxed, comforting him.

Ding Yue nodded, although he was now in a high position in the three realms and had considerable cultivation, he was still just an ant in the face of the great trends of heaven and earth.

Although he was unwilling, Ding Yue's Dao heart had been strong for many years, and he did not have the idea or action to defy heaven.

"The witch race has been preparing since the great calamity, their combat power is extraordinary. Brothers, do not be careless."

Thinking more clearly, Ding Yue warned Yunzhongzi and the others.

They nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. The former rulers, though fallen, were not to be underestimated.

"If the witch race is like this, what about the former heavenly court and demon race?" Yunzhongzi sighed, saying.

This made Ding Yue's face change, recalling the scenes he had seen in the North Sea, his heart heavy...
