At the end of the spatial rift lies the Xuan Yu Realm.

Zi Yue said in a deep voice, "Chase them, or who knows how many people in Xuan Yu will be harmed!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zi Yue stopped and unleashed her ultimate move, the Heaven-Opening Style, a cross-shaped slash that struck the spatial rift that was about to disappear.

"Walk!"

Zi Yue pulled Lan Hua along, and a vast and powerful force emanated, enveloping the two of them.

Crossing the spatial rift, Lan Hua immediately felt time flowing rapidly, and space changing in an instant, completely disoriented.

Zi Yue's face had turned deathly pale, and her vital energy was being rapidly depleted.

If it were just her alone, it would be fine, but with Lan Hua joining in, the burden has greatly increased.

Lan Hua exclaimed, "Yue'er, this seems similar to spatial jumping, but it's actually quite different!"

"That's natural. Spatial jump techniques can only be used within a realm. This is a cross-realm technique, and only those stronger than the Emperor can use it normally."

For a quasi-emperor to use this technique, he would need to unleash a full-force attack to break through the barrier.

When crossing the boundary, one must exert all efforts to resist spatial storms and turbulence, otherwise one will be lost in space and never be able to return.

Therefore, the Quasi-Emperor's use of this technique was extremely taxing on his vital energy!

Zi Yue tried to explain, but her voice was very soft and she sounded weak and powerless.

Lan Hua shrank back, "So those things that seemed to represent the flow of time were just spatial storms and turbulence!"

In just a short while, the two escaped the spatial rift and reappeared above the Xuanhuang Continent.

Zi Yue was so weak that she almost couldn't stand up, but fortunately Lan Hua helped her up.

Lan Hua asked curiously, "Then can Yue'er use this technique to directly enter the Heavenly Realm?"

Zi Yue shook her head. "That won't work. The Heavenly Realm is different from the Lower Realm. It has an extremely solid boundary wall, and even emperors cannot cross it at will!"

As they spoke, the two had already arrived at the eastern coast of the Xuanhuang Continent.

In the far distance, the evil spirit emperor Elai was surrounded by black, foul energy, which enveloped the entire sky above the Eastern Wave Land.

"Yue'er, what does Erlai want to do?" Lan Hua asked.

Zi Yue narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid we need to use Dong Lang's evil spirit to restore our strength!"

"That's a blood sacrifice! What do we do? We have to stop it!"

"Evil spirits did indeed wreak havoc on the Xuanhuang Continent, but since they settled in Donglang, they have never done anything to harm people again. They are just another part of the masses!"

Zi Yue shook her head and said, "It's too late!"

"Xiao Hua Zi, I was already injured by Er Lai. Forcibly crossing between the two worlds only aggravated my injuries and greatly depleted my Yuan Power."

"And your arrow-wielding technique has greatly reduced your spiritual power and severely damaged your cultivation. We can't stop E'lai!"

Lan Hua looked at Donglang Land, her eyebrows almost furrowed in worry, but she could only watch helplessly.

boom...

The entire sky above Donglang was covered by the power of the corrupted element. What was originally a clear blue sky was now covered by dark clouds.

The numerous evil spirits looked terrified.

"How did the weather change? It was sunny just a moment ago, and now it's pitch black?"

"Won't the third calamity of the cosmic cycle occur?"

Five figures appeared in mid-air; they were the five most powerful evil spirits: Ghost Shark, Ghost Tiger, Great Demon, Two Demons, and Three Enchantresses.

The Great Demon exclaimed in alarm, "This is bad! The aura in the sky is the power of filth and primordial energy. This power far surpasses ours, and it is an even purer form of filth and primordial energy!"

Ghost Tiger said, "Could it be that some powerful evil spirit has appeared from the Death Continent again? I'll go take a look!"

The giant demon tried to continue soaring into the sky, but was suppressed by a tremendous force, as if a mountain was pressing down on it, making it difficult to move for a while.

"Oh no, we have to get out of here right now!"

Just as Da Chi had this idea, a black force swept over and trapped him completely.

At the same time, a terrifying suction force came over me.

Da Chi felt his Yuan Power surging out, and no matter how hard he tried to suppress it, it was to no avail.

In less than a moment, the Great Demon had become a dried-up corpse, its essence and blood drained, and its primordial spirit power vanished.

"Hurry up..."

These were the last two words uttered by the Great Demon before its death.

The dark clouds in the sky continued to sink, and the immense sense of oppression became increasingly clear.

Upon seeing the terrible state of the Great Demon, the other four Yuanxiang Realm evil spirits quickly returned to the ground and directed everyone to leave Donglang.

But it was all too late.

The entire edge of Donglang was shrouded in black energy, forming a barrier.

These evil spirits were just ordinary cultivators, not even reaching the Celestial Realm, and were no match for a Quasi-Emperor, even though the latter was already seriously injured.

"ah..."

The screams were incessant.

The evil spirits felt their vital energy dissipating, but the process of losing it was extremely painful.

Not only was his vital energy drained, but his essence and blood also left his body.

On the Xuanhuang Continent.

Many high-ranking members of various sects flew into the sky, looking at the huge dark cloud in the east and feeling the evil aura emanating from it. They were all extremely shocked.

Everyone was silently praying that the dark cloud wouldn't drift westward.

"Hmph, this is absolutely horrific! I can't stand it anymore!"

Lan Hua let out a low shout and used the last of her Yuan Power to unleash the Thousand Arrows Opening the Way.

Thousands of arrows rained down, all aimed at the calamity.

However, compared to the massive dark clouds below Ere, the overwhelming rain of arrows was nothing.

Erlai suddenly opened his eyes, raised his hands high, and the power of the foul energy soared into the sky, transforming into a huge barrier.

The arrows rained down on the barrier as if they were hitting cotton, never to return.

Lan Hua sighed, knowing that her Yuan energy was exhausted and that this rain of arrows posed little threat to E Lai.

The screams coming from the land of Donglang have begun to subside.

Death can happen in an instant.

Just then, a magnificent sound came from the sky, shaking everyone in the entire Xuanyu.

"You wretched creature, how dare you!"

Erlai let out a wild laugh, looking extremely ferocious.

"Human Emperor, the lives I've taken aren't from the Xuanhuang Continent, so what's it to you?"

"That's none of your business!"

Lan Hua was shocked. "The Human Emperor has intervened! The evil spirit can be saved!"

Zi Yue shook her head. "Emperors cannot easily attack people from the lower realms. This is a rule among emperors, and also a heavenly law of the celestial realm!"

Lan Hua asked in surprise, "How can there be such a bizarre rule? The emperor is omnipotent. Even if the human emperor takes action, what will happen?"

"Although it won't cause any major problems, it will isolate the emperor's aura and greatly reduce the emperor's fortune!"

"This is an ancient rule passed down through the ages. Unless one is an Emperor-level expert, no one dares to break it!"

"So, you're still relatively safe in Xuanyu!"

Lan Hua cursed, "No wonder E Lai is so fearless!"

The Emperor's voice came again.

"From the moment these evil spirits settled in Donglang, they became a part of the Xuanhuang Continent, my people!"

Erlai scoffed, "So what?"

"You are already severely injured. If you attack me, do you think you will ever recover?"

"Although I am a quasi-emperor, I am still a Great Venerable. Do you dare to kill me?"

His words were full of arrogance and conceit, showing no regard for the emperor.

"Erlai, are you threatening me?"

The emperor roared, his heart filled with boundless rage.
