Chapter 2318: Chapter 2264–2265: Formidable Opponents, Demon God’s Admiration

No one would doubt the formidable power of the Time Laws and Space Laws. The Witch God Sect Leader, as a veteran Taoist Monarch and the Wielder of Space Laws, is among the pinnacles of existence in this world. His status is not crafted by others’ flattery but forged through his own formidable battle achievements.

Though Zhu Jiuyin Ancestor Witch has intervened infrequently, the very essence of existence is as an Innate Demon God, a deity born to wield the Time Laws. A return from such terrifying heights is unfathomable.

The power they demonstrated through their joint manipulation of the space-time taboo was so astonishing that even as mere onlookers, others felt an immense dread at the manifestation of such a force.

Though these Taoist Monarchs can currently stand against such power, if the fabric of time were to unravel and they were winded back to a moment of their past frailty, how could they possibly contend?

Nevertheless, even as these two immensely powerful forces joined to manipulate the space-time taboo, they still could not subdue Pei Xuanjing, highlighting the tremendous gap. Pei Xuanjing’s might causes an almost unimaginable psychological pressure on many.

Of course, despite recognizing Pei Xuanjing’s power and terribleness, many of these strong figures did not let this pressure linger for long.

To them, it was clear that they were not at the same tier as this Longevity Taoist Monarch.

The counterpart’s strength is such that most Taoist Monarchs are not even qualified to rival him.

Thus, while this situation is certainly troublesome, many Taoist Monarchs realize they might never have a chance to engage with it.

For most Taoist Monarchs, their needs and the Longevity Taoist Monarch’s scope never intersect, implying that the struggle involves only the highest realms of resources. If they don’t qualify to engage at such levels, there is no reason for concern.

“Do you think they will believe it?” the Witch God Sect Leader asked Zhu Jiuyin, standing with his hands folded behind his back.

Without thinking, it was clear that Zhu Jiuyin’s question was not about anything else. Instead, it focused purely on whether others would believe in the power they showcased by jointly manipulating the space-time taboo.

“Believe it or not, it’s up to them,” Zhu Jiuyin replied with an impassive expression, eyes reflecting a deep, ancient wisdom as if they had seen through the river of time, familiar with the past and the future.

This time, their intervention might have been guided by some destiny, foreseeing that one day Pang Hong would obstruct the Witch Deity Teaching’s plan.

Still, though this reason is significant, it was not enough to compel them to choose this moment to act against Pei Xuanjing.

The future is not reality, nor is it bound to occur. Perhaps seeing the future and trying to avoid it prematurely leads to its eventual realization because of certain choices.

They understand this possibility well, but their real purpose in taking action was to showcase their mastery over space-time forces, more than for any other motive.

They knew that their inclination towards manipulating the space-time taboo would not go unnoticed among others. Thus, rather than letting others speculate and devise various schemes in the dark, it was better to reveal a part of the truth for the best.

As to whether their displayed intentions would truly be believed, Zhu Jiuyin was uncertain. Yet, whether they are believed or not was ultimately insignificant.

Their actions aim to demonstrate their stance, hoping to dispel some people’s suspicions.

Whether the other side continues to doubt or chooses to abandon that line of thought matter little. Ultimately, it is contingent on individual perceptions and thoughts.

For the Witch Deity Teaching, this is also a process of selection. Their demonstration of space-time power is primarily a peace gesture, indicating a willingness to show vulnerability.

If in such a situation, the others persist in targeting the Witch Deity Teaching, it signifies significant conflicts of interest that cannot be easily resolved.

“True, we have shown our position. If someone persists stubbornly, it confirms that we are doomed to be adversaries,” the Witch God Sect Leader remarked, playing with his hands, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

The current preference of the Witch Deity Teaching is to avoid becoming enemies with the whole world, thus indicating goodwill and making some concessions, but it is hoped that others would not take their peace gestures for granted.

When that time comes and the stubbornness continues, then naturally, there will be thunderstorms.

The Witch God Sect Leader understands that the current situation is merely a temporary tactical move. Given the Witch Deity Teaching’s strategy, when the final step is reached, they are destined to clash with many, inescapably becoming adversaries.

“Nevertheless, this Longevity Taoist Monarch is indeed terrifying. Even with you and I jointly manipulating the space-time taboo, we could not suppress him,” Zhu Jiuyin noted, with a hint of cold light flashing in his eyes, as his usually tranquil gaze shimmered with subtle brilliance.

Though they intended to show some vulnerability in this action, the space-time taboo power remains so fearsome it’s hard to imagine.

Yet even so, they couldn’t suppress Pei Xuanjing, who easily countered their power, leaving Zhu Jiuyin deeply shaken.
