In fact, regarding the initial hesitation of the Wood Virtue Star Lord, how could the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch not notice it? At least, the combat power shown by the other party was completely different from what they had estimated.

Therefore, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch knew that the Wood Virtue Star Lord still had reservations in his heart. Even though he made a deal with him, he wasn't actually trying to offend the Taoist School's Taoist Monarchs. However, how could the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch let him have his way so easily?

If at first, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch only wanted to trade the Wood Dao Authority with the other party and had no other intentions, discovering the actions of Qingling Primordial Lord against the Wood Virtue Star Lord, he naturally formulated some new plans of his own.

A powerhouse who cultivates the Dao of Life and Death, their future achievements are destined to be limitless, especially when the other party has obtained the Venerable Position among the Ten Halls of Yama, certifying as a Taoist Monarch would be absolutely unimpeded.

So what if they could pull such a powerhouse into their Witch Deity Teaching? It's important to know that if truly calculated, they still have an Ancestral Witch Venerable Position suitable for the Dao of Life and Death that's vacant.

Unlike other forces, even if someone certifies as a Taoist Monarch, they cannot truly integrate into a force, and there's always a natural exclusion.

But their Witch Deity Teaching is different. As long as one obtains an Ancestral Witch Venerable Position, the Witch Deity Teaching can accept them, make them a core member, and give them absolute authority.

If the Wood Virtue Star Lord came from some large immortal sects or top immortal sects, that would be fine. But since he is an Independent Practitioner, naturally of clear origin and with exceptional potential, they naturally developed this idea.

So the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch waited for the other party to recognize reality, make a firm decision, and thereby directly kill Qingling Primordial Lord as a pledge of allegiance. This way, after offending several Taoist Monarchs of the Taoist School, it would be like half breaking with the Taoist School, and the only support they could seek would be from their Witch Deity Teaching.

If not for such calculations, with the collaboration of the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch and the Wood Virtue Star Lord, even if Qingling Primordial Lord were stronger, he would definitely not be a match for the two of them.

While the Wood Virtue Star Lord hesitated, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch also held back, because he knew that as long as the Wood Virtue Star Lord hadn't made up his mind, even if he defeated Qingling Primordial Lord, he couldn't kill him, because at that time, the Wood Virtue Star Lord would definitely obstruct.

"To succeed as an Independent Practitioner, yet also limited by the Independent Practitioner status." The Ju Mang Ancestor Witch evaluated the Wood Virtue Star Lord in his heart.

The Wood Virtue Star Lord being able to reach his current position from being an Independent Practitioner is beyond many people's imagination. His cautious nature is his greatest help in achieving what he has now.

Of course, because of the lack of backing as an Independent Practitioner, being overly cautious, maneuvering between various sides, if he hasn't truly hit a dead end, he cannot truly take a decisive stand.

What kind of person is the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch? Although born from the Witch Deity Teaching, he is not someone who strictly follows the teachings. On the contrary, daring to spy on the core secrets of the Witch Deity Teaching during the Spirit Realm Eightfold era and being hunted by Supreme Strong proves he is quite audacious.

In his view, the Wood Virtue Star Lord still lacks a certain boldness in his heart; being overly cautious is not necessarily bad, but being overly cautious leads to hesitation and overthinking.

There's never anything perfect in this world, no matter how thoroughly planned, there will always be some imperceptible flaws left.

The Wood Virtue Star Lord's over-cautiousness and steadiness have led to his current predicament.

If it were the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch in the position of the Wood Virtue Star Lord, wielding the Dao of Life and Death and the Wood Dao Authority, he certainly wouldn't hesitate like this and would have likely already certified as a Taoist Monarch.

Of course, each strong person has their own considerations, and it's not that the Wood Virtue Star Lord's way is wrong, but one cannot hesitate too much.

Therefore, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch still waits, waits for the other's true reaction. If this Wood Virtue Star Lord can't recognize reality, he will also abandon the idea of inviting him to join the Witch Deity Teaching.

There are only twelve Ancestral Witch Venerable Positions in the Witch Deity Teaching, and those who want to acquire one not only need extraordinary potential but also need unique methods and disposition.

This Wood Virtue Star Lord indeed has good potential, but if he is overly cautious and steady, he is not suitable to join the Witch Deity Teaching.

However, from the change in the Wood Virtue Star Lord's offensive at this moment, it instead made the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch nod silently, proving that the other party is not beyond hope. At this moment, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch no longer held back and unleashed divine abilities.

Once these two truly released their combat power, Qingling Primordial Lord's expression changed, because as the person involved, he clearly felt his Five Elements Formation beginning to falter, clearly unable to hold much longer.

"Is today the day I fall here?" A sense of despair involuntarily rose in Qingling Primordial Lord's heart.

Now, both had already exerted their full strength, he countered with the Five Elements Formation but could no longer contend, and in this situation, he feared even escaping was not an option.

It was indeed laughable; at the outset, Qingling Primordial Lord had planned to ambush the Wood Virtue Star Lord and seize the Wood Dao Authority, his greatest worry being the intervention of those Heavenly Court powerhouses.

Even if he had already arranged for someone to lure away the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch, there were still two Imperial Honors in the Heavenly Court, and he couldn't guarantee they wouldn't stop him.

Thus, in Qingling Primordial Lord's view, the time he had was actually limited, and he needed to seize the opportunity to suppress the Wood Virtue Star Lord in a short time.

But everything was completely different from his plan. After making his move, he found that the Wood Virtue Star Lord was not as weak as he appeared. Instead, it probed out the other's true combat power, which was definitely not inferior to his own top True Immortal.

Yet, even then, he was not overly concerned because he still had the Five Elements Formation, an ace up his sleeve. Without outside interference, he was confident in suppressing the other party.

Therefore, at that moment, he was still worried that the Imperial Honors of the Heavenly Court would intervene.

However, plans could never keep up with changes. The Heavenly Court Imperial Honors that Qingling Primordial Lord worried about did not intervene, meaning the entire Heavenly Court exhibited a completely indifferent and laissez-faire attitude towards his actions, which surprised him greatly.

Initially, Qingling Primordial Lord was a bit pleased, thinking it was the intervention of those Taoist Monarchs backing him, preventing the movements of the two Imperial Honors, until the appearance of Ju Mang Ancestor Witch.

The moment Ju Mang Ancestor Witch appeared, even without taking action or saying a word, he knew nine times out of ten, the other party was there for him.

This time, the Wood Virtue Star Lord's long-term stay in the Heavenly Palace and sudden departure, all found their reasons; that is, the Wood Virtue Star Lord and Ju Mang Ancestor Witch had reached a cooperation and truly allied together.

And the reason for their alliance was simple; it was undoubtedly about the Wood Dao Authority.

If before, Qingling Primordial Lord felt there was no basis for alliance between fellow contenders of the Great Path of Wood, after forcing the Wood Virtue Star Lord to reveal his true cards, the other party surprisingly mastered the Dao of Life and Death, revealing all true immortals.

The Wood Virtue Star Lord wanted to ally with Ju Mang Ancestor Witch to trade the Wood Dao Authority. Even without knowing the true details of their trade, it undoubtedly involved the Dao of Life and Death.

The Wood Virtue Star Lord who cultivated the Dao of Life and Death and Witch Deity Teaching which masters the Nether Yin Department, the two seemed to have a natural foundation for cooperation, like a match made in heaven.

Damn it!

This was the immediate reaction in Qingling Primordial Lord's mind.

Being from the Taoist School, if the other party was willing to give up the Wood Dao Authority, why didn't he first look for him but instead went to the Witch Deity Teaching's Ju Mang Ancestor Witch?

Does the other party not recognize his own identity? This aiding the enemy act is truly intolerable.
