Shen Xingze and his men quickly turned their warships around and chased closely behind, shouting, "Senior Devouring Emperor, go to Uranus! Neptune was hit by the aftermath of the war and is now reduced to ruins!"

"Okay!" The Devouring Emperor responded briefly, and before he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace like a ghost.

This great battle inflicted heavy damage upon the entire prehistoric world. Numerous stars were shattered in the fierce battle, leaving a scene of devastation as far as the eye could see. Upon witnessing this, the Celestial Court quickly organized numerous celestial troops and rushed to various locations to launch rescue operations. The Celestial Masters' Mansion was no less affected, with numerous Celestial Masters, armed with magical treasures, repairing any large stars that could still be repaired.

The Myriad Demon Sect and the Dark Abyss Demon Alliance ultimately failed to withstand the attacks of Zhang Qiming and his men, being completely defeated and falling completely under Zhang Qiming's control. However, Zhang Qiming, now in the Thirty-Third Heaven, was far from happy. He had intended to use the Kunpeng and Lu Ya he had brought back to enhance his own strength, but was immediately stopped by Nuwa.

Although the two Buddhist saints intervened, Tongtian Patriarch intervened and held the situation in check. If Xumizi hadn't appeared in time, he would have been injured by Nuwa.

But Xumizi did not want to help him deal with Tongtian Jiaozhu and Nuwa Niangniang, but just acted as a peacemaker and persuaded him to return Kunpeng and Lu Ya.

Zhang Qiming originally wanted to ask his master Hongjun Daozu for help, but he learned that Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi had not returned yet. Hongjun Daozu was busy calculating their whereabouts and had no time to take care of this matter.

Seeing Zhang Qiming's hesitation, Nuwa cast a cold glance at the Great Master Xuandu, the Southern Pole Immortal, and the others, as if to say, "If you don't hand over Kunpeng and Lu Ya, I will kill them." This frightened the Southern Pole Immortal and the others terribly, and they hurriedly moved towards the Purple Cloud Palace, hoping that Master Hongjun would protect them.

Faced with such a tense situation, Zhang Qiming weighed the pros and cons and ultimately surrendered Kunpeng and Lu Ya. He then returned to his palace to recover his strength. Thus, peace temporarily returned to the prehistoric world.

However, the underworld, which had returned to peace, suddenly became abnormal on this day. Powerful pressure continuously emanated from the root of the underworld, instantly alarming the entire underworld.

Fengdu Emperor and his companions stood guard outside this mysterious area with solemn expressions, not daring to delay even a moment. They immediately sent a message to Earth Mother Hou Tu Niangniang, their voices filled with anxiety: "Empress, something has happened to the Netherworld Root Vein. Please return immediately!"

On an unnamed star beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, a graceful young woman slowly opened her eyes. She was dressed in a multicolored phoenix robe, her figure elegant and her aura transcendental. She instantly stood up.

This person is none other than the supreme ruler of the underworld—Mother Earth, Hou Tu. She has always been responsible for guarding the underworld, never arguing with others and keeping a very low profile. However, few dare to underestimate her, as she is a long-established Saint Emperor with unfathomable strength.

She cast her gaze towards the base of the Asia planet outside. After taking a quick look, she transformed into a stream of brilliant light and flew rapidly towards the thirty-third heaven.

As soon as he arrived at the Thirty-Third Heaven, he was stopped by Xumizi. Xumizi frowned and asked anxiously, "Hou Tu, why did you suddenly come to the Thirty-Third Heaven when you weren't guarding outside?"

"Something happened in the underworld, I have to go back." Hou Tu's tone was calm and steady, her expression was unhurried, as if nothing could move her.

"If you leave, who will guard this place? Half a year has passed, and Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi are still nowhere to be seen!" Xumizi frowned even more tightly, with a hint of worry and blame in his tone.

"You guys figure it out on yourselves." After Hou Tu said that, she flew straight past Xumizi and headed towards the prehistoric land. Her resolute back revealed an unquestionable momentum.

"How dare you leave your post without permission!" Xu Mizi couldn't help but snort coldly, his dissatisfaction evident in his words.

"Master, let me do it. I'll teach her a lesson for you!" Chaos Donkey suddenly yelled at the top of his lungs.

As soon as the words fell, it suddenly raised its hoof high and slammed it down towards Hou Tu. Instantly, the yin and yang energies spread like surging waves. The massive hoof was like a towering mountain, with overwhelming force, as if it was about to collapse the entire void. The momentum was astonishing.

Such terrifying power, like a bombshell, shook the entire Thirty-Three Heavens. Even Zhang Qiming, Tongtian Patriarch, and others could not help but leave the palace to investigate. Hou Tu, facing this powerful and menacing blow, simply waved her hand with a calm expression. A beam of divine light shot out like lightning, and without looking back, she continued to fly forward, as if what had just happened was a trivial matter.

"Hoo!" Chaos Donkey secretly laughed at Houtu for being too arrogant, and hoped that his powerful donkey hooves could easily crush the divine light shot out by Houtu, so that she could make a fool of herself in front of everyone.

Witnessing Hou Tu's actions, Nuwa and the two Western Saints were puzzled. However, Zhang Qiming and Hongjun Daozu were keenly aware of the unusual nature of the divine light, and a flash of surprise flashed in their eyes.

Just when Xumizi was secretly shaking his head and thinking that Houtu's move was too reckless, the situation suddenly changed, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

The donkey's hoof, which was filled with yin and yang energy, was as thin as paper and was directly shattered by the divine light shot out by Houtu. An extremely terrifying energy wave erupted, just like a powerful bomb exploding in the void. The strong vibration spread rapidly with the force of a tidal wave, and the entire prehistoric world trembled.

"Ah..." Chaos Donkey let out a shrill scream and quickly retracted the broken hoof. It howled in pain, "Master, she cut off one of my legs! Wuuwu..."

Xu Mizi ignored the Chaos Donkey's screams, but instead fixed his eyes on the direction where Hou Tu disappeared, his heart filled with shock.

Tongtian Patriarch's eyes suddenly lit up, his face filled with shock. "How is this possible? How could she be so strong? Even I can't handle her so easily!"

"Sister Hou Tu has been hiding her true strength all this time?" Nuwa was also shocked. "She's in such a hurry. What happened in the underworld?"

"She has already broken through, and her strength is definitely not at the early stage of the Holy Emperor!" Jie Yin looked at Zhunti with a serious face and said.

"Yes, nowadays our Western Buddhist sect is the weakest. But why can't we find a way to break through?" Zhunti sighed helplessly.

"Master! You must avenge me! Hou Tu has been hiding her strength, which shows that she has not been giving her all in every battle! You must take her down quickly!" Chaos Donkey urged anxiously, holding the bloody severed leg.
