Primordial: Yunmeng Snake

Chapter 331 The Bronze Pillar Moves, Kuafu's Death

The atmosphere in the venue became silent with the sudden sarcasm and Kuafu's getting up. People who came to see Kuafu like this still continued to shout:

"Don't you think something is wrong? Your high-profile lies have attracted so many tribesmen to have high hopes for you."

"The result is that it makes people laugh out loud, and makes the guys on the other side stand outside the copper pillars and laugh at our bravery!"

"The tribesmen are so happy today, the red stars in the sky are twinkling and swaying so movingly, and the wine and barbecue beside the campfire contain the expectations of the tribesmen."

"Everyone is having fun freely and wants to witness the bravery of the clan, but now you have to stand up again and want to continue to prove to us the power of heaven and our powerlessness?"

Looking at the red-eyed Kuafu in front of him, the murderous aura and anger surrounding him seemed to tear him apart. A sarcastic smile appeared in the man's eyes, and he mocked:

"What? You want to kill me? Come on, prove your bravery. If you can pull out the copper pillar, what if I lose my life?"

Kuafu was extremely silent, and just as he was about to continue walking forward, Dayi shouted:

"Kuafu! Those are our people."

It's a pity that the man didn't appreciate Dayi's kind-hearted dissuasion. Instead, he continued to stimulate:

"Da Yi, Great Witch, please don't say that. I am ashamed of Kuafu's race, and I asked him to kill me, so that everyone can see how a coward can prove his bravery!"

As the man spoke, countless drunken shamans began to cheer, and some even wanted to throw the remaining melon peels and bones at Kuafu.

When the visitor saw that his tribe supported him so much, he felt even more proud. He wanted to continue to mock Kuafu, but he slapped him away.

Kuafu's eyes were full of disbelief and incomprehension. He never thought that one day his tribe would see him this way.

Facing the ridicule and disgust of everyone, Kuafu finally said:

"How can a scoundrel like you who only shouts and incites my tribe understand my bravery? I will prove my bravery, and you'd better let me see your bravery!"

After the words fell, Kuafu walked towards the copper pillar in silence. Zhou Shen's momentum was like the abyss of heaven. Wherever he went, the shamans surrounding him avoided him and did not dare to stop him.

Dayi and many great witches all watched in silence. They wanted to stop him, but their words were so weak and contradictory.

Dayi had the ability to stop it, but for some reason, his feet felt as heavy as lead. He knew that he also wanted his friend to let Kuafu prove himself and wash away the shame on him.

Even though they knew it was a mistake, all the great witches knew that Kuafu had been put on the cliff by his tribe. There was an abyss in front and behind, and there was no way out.

Kuafu walked to the bottom of the copper pillar. It was obviously very ordinary brass, but it was emitting a frightening golden light. Kuafu understood that the uncomfortable thing permeating it was called majesty.

The blood all over his body boiled, and Kuafu's body began to grow rapidly. From a little over one foot, it grew to over a thousand feet within a few breaths.

Two green and yellow snakes hovered over his left and right hands. The huge snake spit out and then began to slowly shrink until it sneaked into Kuafu's hands.

Kuafu's body continued to swell and once again increased by more than 500 feet. Only then did Kuafu place his hands on the copper pillar and suddenly exerted force.

The sound of violent roaring of muscles and bones was endless. Kuafu clenched his teeth, with some blood seeping out between his teeth, and let out a low roar from his mouth.

There was silence in the field, and many shamans locked their eyes on Kuafu, as if neither the moonlight in the sky nor the swaying red stars could attract his attention.

The veins popped out, but Kuafu seemed to feel that what he was holding in his arms was not a copper pillar, but the entire continent. No matter how hard he tried, he could not shake it.

As time went by, many tribesmen seemed to see Kuafu's powerlessness and gradually lost patience with him.

Seeing that the copper pillar was still unwavering, but Kuafu had exhausted all his strength, the exposed veins, the blood dripping from his teeth, and the gradually declining blood energy made a tribesman unable to bear it and shouted:

"Kuafu, you have tried your best. Just give up. We actually have no hope. Don't take what you said just now to your heart. They are just that person's personal opinion."

The echoing voices were sparse, but they continued to sound, and gradually gained a certain momentum. However, Kuafu seemed as if he had not heard them, and was immersed in the copper pillar.

In fact, Kuafu heard it, but the voices asking him to give up became louder and louder. When they fell into Kuafu's ears, he could not feel any comfort. Instead, it made his heart twist like a knife.

The permeating Qi and blood began to burn, and even blood stains began to seep into Kuafu's pores. His figure of more than 1,500 feet was now a giant stained red by blood, powerful but weak.

Suddenly, Kuafu shouted loudly, and countless blood mist spurted out from his body, burning the surrounding air to boiling point, and faint blood flames burned on the copper pillars.

Suddenly, someone below exclaimed:

"It's moving. Look, everyone, the copper pillar has moved. Kuafu, you have proven your bravery, stop it!"

Countless people were echoing, and there was even a hint of crying in their voices. Kuafu was at the end of his tether.

A little unbearability flashed in the eyes of Dayi and others, but they never spoke. Did the copper pillar move? They hoped it was moving.

Kuafu ignored the shouts of the crowd, but the blood flames burning on his body became more intense, burning the air to the point of distortion, forcing the witches around him to retreat.

"Ah!!!"

Kuafu roared, but it was just a meaningless sound, not like human speech at all. The blood flames expanded more and more, and suddenly, under the eyes of everyone, the copper pillar really shook.

The amplitude was very small, and even made everyone in the field feel that they were dazzled.

It moved again, still so small, but it really fell into the eyes of everyone.

Everyone kept shouting:

"Kuafu, enough, you have done it! The copper pillar moved! Really moved! Everyone saw it!"

Among these people, there were a group of great witches such as Dayi, and Kuafu under the copper pillar finally stopped and laughed heartily.

The laughter resounded through the sky, full of wantonness and excitement. Countless people in the field were also cheering, and the flashing red star seemed to be shaken by it.

But the laughter stopped abruptly, and the giant collapsed with a bang, and his tall body leaned back, shrinking as he fell.

Until he hit the ground, the fallen Kuafu was less than ten feet tall, and his body was covered with blood. His breath was like a candle in the wind, and he could be extinguished at any time.

Dayi and others hurried over, using their own strength to maintain Kuafu's heart pulse, and stared fiercely at the person who had provoked him before.

But they didn't have time to delay on such a villain. Kuafu's breath was weak, and they had to take him back to the tribe quickly to see if the ancestors and witches could rescue him.

The meeting on the hillside was interrupted, and countless people walked among the crowd, just to find the person who had spoken before.

The man wanted to escape, but unfortunately he was discovered after all. Countless witches rushed up and beat him to death under this copper pillar!

Afterwards, some witches tied the body to the copper pillar, hung it high, exposed to the sun and rain, and pecked by hundreds of birds.

After the witches brought Kuafu back, they found Hou Tu, the ancestor witch of the tribe, and took him into the room without waiting to tell him the reason.

It was not until a few days later, when the sun was high in the sky, that Hou Tu walked out of the room with a tired face, looking at the witches in front of her, her eyes full of anger and sorrow, and said:

"Kuafu has gone, returned to the embrace of the Father God, his blood and qi are burned out, his bones are broken, and his injuries are too serious. I can't do anything."

"Now, who of you can tell me what happened? Didn't you go out for a party? Why did Kuafu become like this!"

The witches were silent for a long time, and Dayi finally stood up and told Hou Tu all the reasons.

There was a dead silence in the field, Hou Tu lowered her head, so that everyone could not see her expression clearly, and suddenly, Hou Tu suddenly threw a punch, which landed directly on Dayi.

With a loud bang, Dayi flew backwards and knocked down several mountains before he stopped.

After throwing a punch, Houtu still looked ugly, but it was better than before. She glanced at the witches fiercely and said:

"If you are not from the Houtu tribe, go back to your tribe immediately. You are not welcome here now. Get out while I can still control myself!"

Jiufeng, who was in the front row, shouted with guilt:

"Lord Houtu, I..."

But before she finished speaking, Houtu's sharp eyes fell on Jiufeng and shouted:

"Didn't you hear what I said? Get out!"

Many witches had no choice but to retreat slowly and return to their own tribes.

A few months later, Dayi, dragging a body full of scars, finally limped back to the tribe. Houtu's punch almost broke half of his bones, and he has not recovered yet.

Dayi lay in the broken mountain for two months, during which he could not move at all.

It was not until his injuries began to recover that he was able to move and drag his injured body back to the tribe step by step.

During this period, Hou Tu's anger also subsided a little. When she saw Dayi, she did not attack again, but just said:

"If you are not dead, come with me to the hall for a meeting. Other ancestors of witches are here. They need to ask about what happened that night."

"Don't hide anything about what happened that night, and don't miss any details."

Dayi nodded and replied:

"Yes."

Then the two went to the witch clan hall of Hou Tu tribe. At this time, the four ancestors of witches, Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, Zhurong, and Gonggong, were already waiting in the hall.

As Hou Tu took his seat, the leader Di Jiang ignored Dayi's embarrassed look and asked first:

"Do you still remember the appearance and name of the person who started this incident that day? Is there anything unusual? Was it spontaneous among the tribesmen? Or is there a conspiracy by outsiders?"

After thinking for a while, Dayi immediately replied:

"Reporting to Lord Di Jiang, that person is indeed a witch. I remember his appearance. He should be from the Gonggong tribe."

"As for his name, I don't know, but before the party started, I saw him and the Gonggong tribe enter the venue together."

"As for the abnormality, I'm sorry I didn't notice it. Since Kuafu failed in his first attempt to pull out the copper pillar, his environment in the tribe has not been very friendly."

"As for the attempt to pull out the copper pillar, at the beginning, it was just a drunk tribesman who was entertaining himself there."

"Later, somehow, more and more people tried, and then it led to us."

"The copper pillar is related to the heaven. We also know the importance. It's just that the clan members have set it up, so someone has to go and try it."

"At that time, I thought that Kuafu had already tried it before. Even if he failed again, it would not have any impact. Everyone present can testify to this."

"Everything was going as expected, but suddenly someone jumped out of his mind, and his words were full of ridicule towards Kuafu."

"In front of many tribesmen, Kuafu was pushed to the cliff. I don't know how to resolve that situation."

"Everyone knows the final result. As for the person who jumped out to ridicule Kuafu, we were busy bringing Kuafu back to the tribe, so we ignored him."

Di Jiang nodded and said:

"That man is dead. He was beaten to death by the angry tribesmen. His body is still hanging on the copper pillar. There were too many people who took action at that time, and we don't know who did it."

"Whether there is any conspiracy by outsiders, everyone is still confused now. You are seriously injured now. I will ask you one last question, and you must answer it truthfully."

"After you answer, you can go back to recuperate. As for how the tribe will punish you in the future, that is Houtu's sister's business, and we have no right to interfere."

"Let me ask you, did you really see that copper pillar move with your own eyes at that time? I'm sure you didn't see it wrong, or maybe it was a joke to make Kuafu stop."

"This matter is so important that there is no room for lies, nor is there any room for falsehood or friendship! You must tell the truth."

When Dayi heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red. He never thought that his good brother Kua Fu, who had proved his bravery at the cost of his life, would now be doubted!

Seeing Yi's excitement, Hou Tu immediately shouted:

"Da Yi!"

When Dayi heard Hou Tu's words, he could only force himself to endure it, gritted his teeth and said:

"Reporting to Mr. Di Jiang, I dare to guarantee with my life that Kuafu has indeed shaken the copper pillar. I have seen it with my own eyes! There is no falsehood at all!"

Di Jiang nodded, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if a big stone had fallen to the ground, making his whole body stretch.

Looking at the extremely excited Dayi in front of him, Di Jiang then comforted him:

"Okay, I believe you, and you must also believe that Kuafu's sacrifice is not meaningless. He not only proved his bloody bravery, but also reconnected with Wu's backbone."

"He will be a hero, a hero of the Witch Clan, and his death will also be the death of a hero. This will never waver."

Dayi's expression calmed down and he was affirmed by Di Jiang. At least Kuafu's sacrifice would not be so insignificant, at least it would have some meaning!

"I understand, Lord Houtu, please forgive me for being too seriously injured, so I will retreat first."

Hou Tu nodded and said nothing. Seeing this, Dayi could only leave sadly.

After there were only five ancestral witches left in the field, Zhu Jiuyang spoke:

"Kuafu's strength should be within the top ten among the great witches of the witch clan, but there is still a slight gap between him and the top ones."

"Since even he can shake the copper pillar, then the current clan must have the ability to remove it!"

"After removing the twelve of us, there are still six copper pillars. Let's talk about the candidates we can come up with when we remove them in the future."

Di Jiang thought for a while and then said:

"Xingtian, Dayi, Chi You, Feng Bo, Yu Shi, Xiang Liu, Jiu Feng, these seven people are the top witches among the witch clan today."

"And the candidates can only be selected from here. The others are not even as good as Kuafu. Kuafu can only shake, but others have no chance."

Zhu Rong did not speak. There were no powerful wizards in his tribe, and no one appeared on the list. Naturally, he did not need to worry about this.

Gonggong was the first to speak:

"Xiang Liu is not good at it. Compared to strength, Xiang Liu is better at the power of law. His own venom is also excellent, but his strength is much inferior."

Hou Tu also spoke:

"My Hou Tubu has already lost a Kuafu. It is impossible for Dayi to join us again, otherwise there would be no fairness."

Di Jiang frowned when he heard this and said:

"What do you mean by this? This matter concerns the entire Witch Clan. There is no room for selfishness! The race's grand plan has nothing to do with each tribe, nothing to do with losses, and nothing to do with fairness!"

There was a sudden commotion in the field. In fact, there was no shortage of great witches in each department, but there was a lack of great witches like the people in the field who could become ancestral witches.

These people are the real treasures of the tribe and the key to ensuring the long-term prosperity of a tribe. How can they let go easily at this time.

Seeing such a mess, Zhu Jiuyin on the side couldn't help but smile secretly:

"It's too noisy for everyone to damage the brotherhood. It's better to hold a competition directly within the Wu clan and let them all come out to practice."

"For the sake of race, the six strongest people will be selected, and they will go and pull out the copper pillars. Of course, to ensure fairness, neither you nor I can leave this place. How about we can only send a letter to inform?"

Hou Tu's face suddenly darkened. She naturally knew about Dayi's strength. Except for one Xingtian who was enough to see, the others were no threat to him at all.

Zhu Jiuyin's suggestion is clearly aimed at Hou Tubu! However, they still didn't understand Hou Tu's objection, so Di Jiang and others agreed:

"agree."

"agree."

"agree."

Hou Tu looked at the people in the hall, snorted angrily, and said:

"Good! Very good!"

After that, he closed his eyes and stopped talking. The other ancestor witches looked at each other, but did not persuade them. They had other thoughts in their hearts, so how could they take the initiative to comfort them at this time.

In the Heavenly Palace, in the Lingxiao Palace, Di Jun and Fuxi sat and played chess. Di Jun chuckled and said:

"The witch clan is interesting. We haven't made a move yet, and they pushed a great witch with great potential to the cliff of death."

"If they wait for a few more Yuanhui, until we take the initiative to reduce the luck on the copper pillar, maybe even that person will not die. I don't know what they are thinking of being so anxious."

The smile on Di Jun's face was a little mocking and puzzled. There were smart people in the witch clan. They knew that as long as they waited quietly, they would stand up one day.

But a great witch who is almost as powerful as the Hunyuan Dao was pushed to the guillotine by a group of people who can be called ants in terms of strength.

Emperor Jun was puzzled, and Fuxi also laughed:

"The people of the witch clan have no primordial spirit, and they specialize in the power of blood and flesh. Although they are not inferior to immortals in fighting, they are no different from ordinary people in thinking."

"After all, if you can't practice the great way, you can't be like immortals, keep a heart that is not moved by external things, and won't go through hardships and practice."

"Obsession with emotions, focusing on honor and bravery, even if the life span is long, but it is just a mortal."

"There are things like shameful swords are hard to sheath, and the strong die for the weak. I don't believe that if it were the immortal way, these people would never get close to me, let alone say provocative things."

As he said, Fuxi dropped a child, and countless clouds rolled over the western continent, and a thunderbolt struck, and finally entered the eighteen copper pillars.

Fuxi smiled and said:

"Since they are so ambitious and unwilling to wait for the right time, I will give them some surprises to show the grace of the Heavenly Court."

"After all, whether it is thunder and rain, they are all the grace of the Heavenly Court. Whether they are willing or not, they will accept it."

Di Jun looked at Fuxi in surprise, as if he had never thought that he would be so domineering. However, it was just a little thunder, and he would do it.

And because of the incident of Kuafu shaking the copper pillar, countless witches were encouraged and were happily heading to the places where the copper pillars were located.

But they never thought that what was waiting for them was not the pillar that would not fight back in the past, but the fate of either pulling out the copper pillar or dying.

On the other hand, the Heavenly Court was full of joy at this time. The day of the earthly marriage was approaching, and the whole Heavenly Court was looking forward to it and was excited about it.

After all, once there was such a grand event, it meant that the countless spiritual objects accumulated in the storehouse of the Heavenly Court in the past would finally see the light of day again.

The gains from a conference almost saved them ten thousand years of practice. How could they not be excited about such a good thing?

As for the sentient beings in the prehistoric world, they were ignorant about it and were still studying hard, having a headache about how to prevent the demons.

But at this moment, a message suddenly spread in the prehistoric world: if you join the Heavenly Court, you will be protected by the luck of the Heavenly Court and take the golden elixir and peaches, and the demons will not disturb you.

Suddenly, the whole prehistoric world was boiling again, and everyone wanted to join the Heavenly Court with all their heart and soul. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Court had not experienced war for a long time, and almost no personnel were absorbed from the prehistoric world.

In the peaceful appearance of the prehistoric world, the Earth Marriage Ceremony finally kicked off at the arrival of the new Yuanhui. (End of this chapter)
