But it's okay.

Once we've dealt with the bespectacled man and the dog...

She can then unleash her full power, sweep across this star field, and return to her peak!

No....

It's a step towards even greater heights!

Three days of preparation time.

That's enough for her.

"By then..."

"Completely become a stellar-level overlord of the nine universes, and then, with the unparalleled resources jointly rewarded by the nine universes, break through the galaxy level, shatter the supercluster level, and finally... become a true cosmic overlord!"

"No, being the cosmic overlord is not enough."

A slight smile appeared on Wood's lips.

But Wood didn't notice that the tongue that had been quiet in her mouth had strangely stuck out, rotated twice, and then retracted.

Still immersed in wonderful daydreams.

"I will create... my own universe."

"A universe where the Heavenly Dao is divided, systems are created, and countless purple flowers are planted... the Primal Demon Universe!!"

That concludes my musings.

Wood lifted the magic crystal.

With a sudden opening of its mouth, it swallowed the enormous crystal of demonic energy.

With a thud.

The demonic energy crystal was swallowed.

"As expected of the most perfect body, these teeth and swallowing speed are far superior to my former Demon Emperor body."

"Huh..."

"I can't recall how my original body was destroyed," Wood frowned.

"really...."

"The use of the Source Heart Demon Seed too many times has caused some gaps in my memory."

"Forget it, let bygones be bygones."

"I, the Emperor... will create a brand new future!!"

Putting aside his worries, Wood felt a surge of pride.

Quietly wait for the refresh point to be reported after the demonic energy crystal has been digested.

However....

A minute passed...

Five minutes have passed...

Twenty minutes have passed...

Even on the outskirts of Sakurakyo City, which has been completely reduced to ruins, Sakurakyo Self-Defense Forces from other cities have arrived to check on the situation in Sakurakyo City.

Wood still couldn't find a single refresh point.

Such reserves... are still zero!!

Why...why is this happening?

"why is that!!!???"

Wood is going crazy.

Could it be that this body simply cannot store refresh points? So the original reserves were zero, and no matter how many demonic energy crystals she absorbed, it would still be zero?

If there are no refresh points, what's the point of her playing?

To think you can return to your peak through honest and diligent training is just a pipe dream...

However, after a brief period of panic...

Wood quickly regained his composure thanks to the Demon Emperor's will.

"wrong...."

"This body must have had a respawn point, otherwise the growth of that purple fragment is inexplicable..."

"The reason we can't process the refresh points right now is..."

"Could it be... that this body doesn't actually eat and digest food with its mouth?"

A sense of absurdity flashed through Wood's mind.

What Wood didn't notice was...

Her left hand suddenly began to twitch and tremble as if she had Parkinson's disease. Her skin also changed unpredictably, sometimes rough and sometimes fair.

Or perhaps...

"Is there something wrong with your stomach?"

Wood looked down at his stomach.

In an instant, his left hand stopped trembling, and his skin stopped changing.

*Smack!*

"It's perfectly normal..." Wood patted his stomach.

After a moment's thought.

Wood's heart sank.

She decided to see for herself with her consciousness.

Is there something wrong with the internal organs of this body that's causing her to not receive feedback from the refresh point?

a long time.

"I...."

"This emperor..."

"Gold, silver, copper, iron... Holy crap, what kind of stuff is inside this guy's body?!"
