Moon God Realm, Shenyue City.
Xia Qingyue returned from the Eternal Heaven God Realm and just as she stepped into Shenyue City, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right.
A large number of Moon Guards were dispersing and heading straight out of the Moon God Realm.
“What’s going on?” Xia Qingyue frowned and murmured.
The entire Shenyue City froze at the God Emperor's voice. Yaoyue, Lianyue, and Jinyue quickly appeared in front of Xia Qingyue. Lianyue hurriedly said, "Master, Shui Meiyin...she is no longer in the Moon Prison!"
“!?” Xia Qingyue’s eyes instantly turned cold, and then she stabbed at Jin Yue fiercely: “Jin Yue! Didn’t I tell you to keep a good eye on her?!”
Jin Yue leaned forward and said in a panic, "Master, I will go to the Moon Prison immediately after receiving your order. However, when I arrived at the bottom of the Moon Prison, I found... found that Shui Meiyin had disappeared."
“You mean, Shui Meiyin escaped on her own before that?” Xia Qingyue suddenly narrowed her eyes and called out, “Hengzhi!”
A tall man in silver armor came quickly and knelt down below: "Greetings to the God Emperor."
Yue Hengzhi, commander-in-chief of the Moon Prison Guards.
“It has been six months since I last entered the Moon Prison. In these six months, has anyone forcibly broken the thirty-three layers of barriers at the bottom of the Moon Prison?” Xia Qingyue asked, looking down.
Yue Hengzhi said without hesitation: "Absolutely not. Hengzhi will definitely notice if the barrier at the bottom of the Moon Prison is slightly impacted by an alien force. And the only person who took the initiative to open the barrier at the bottom of the Moon Prison in the past six months is..."
He glanced at Jin Yue and lowered his voice a bit: "Only Jin Yue Divine Envoy."
As the three closest attendants of the Moon God Emperor, Yao Yue, Lian Yue, and Jin Yue have many privileges. There is no place in the Moon God Realm that they cannot enter... including the bottom of the Moon Prison.
“Hmph!” Xia Qingyue’s eyes slightly turned away, and Jin Yue also looked up in panic at this moment… For the first time, Xia Qingyue looked at her with such a cold gaze, making her feel as if she had fallen into a cruel icy prison.
“Jin Yue,” Xia Qingyue’s voice was cold but filled with pain and disappointment: “How much benefit did the Glazed Light Realm give you that you dared to betray me in front of me!”
Jin Yue was horrified and said in a panic, "I dare not! I have never..."
"How dare you quibble!"
Xia Qingyue flicked her purple sleeves, and a purple light struck Jin Yue hard, sending her flying.
"Jin Yue!" Lian Yue was shocked and quickly flew over to hug Jin Yue.
Yao Yue said anxiously: "Master, Jin Yue has been with you for many years and has always been loyal to you. She considers serving you her whole life's work and she will never betray you."
“Shut up!” Xia Qingyue said coldly: “It’s not your turn to beg for mercy in this matter.”
"..." A trace of blood slowly ran down the corner of Jin Yue's lips. She lay dazed in Lian Yue's arms, her pupils confused and blurred, like thousands of broken stars.
Among the three close attendants of the Moon God Emperor, she was the first to serve Xia Qingyue. At that time, she was not yet the Moon God Emperor, and their relationship was as close as that of sisters. She was even the only person Xia Qingyue would confide in.
After Yue Wuya died, she was crowned the Moon Goddess. Gradually, she became distant... and then farther and farther, until she even began to become a stranger.
But... this was the first time that Xia Qingyue attacked her. Compared to the pain in her body, her heart, which was filled with Xia Qingyue's image, was shattered into pieces and was in excruciating pain.
"Master, I didn't do that," she knelt on the ground again, crying with every word, "Even if I die, I will never do anything to betray you."
“Is that so?” Facing Jin Yue’s sadness, Xia Qingyue’s eyes were still icy cold: “Well, considering that you have been with me for many years, I can assume that you have been bewitched by Shui Meiyin’s Immaculate Spirit.”
“But, do you know why I want to hold Shui Meiyin hostage? Once her pure soul is fully awakened, it will be extremely terrifying! Now that the Eastern Divine Region has just been plagued by demons, if she escapes now, she may very likely lean towards the demon camp, which will be an extremely huge hidden danger in the future!”
"Such a serious crime, even if you are really bewitched by the Immortal Spirit...how can I forgive you!"
Without waiting for Jin Yue to even say a word in defense, she coldly ruled: “Get out of the Moon God Realm immediately. From now on, you are not allowed to set foot in the Moon God Realm even a single step again!”
"Owner……"
"Anyone who dares to plead for mercy will be punished with the same crime!"
Lianyue and Yaoyue bit their lips at the same time, their eyes were confused, but they didn't dare to speak anymore.
Jin Yue’s beautiful eyes lost their color. She looked at Xia Qingyue, slowly raised her hand, and pressed her palm against her chest: “Master, this maidservant… is willing to die… to prove her innocence.”
“Die?” Xia Qingyue was not moved at all, and remained indifferent as before: “You should know that this king never wishes to leave any troubles behind. If you die in front of this king, then your parents, your siblings, and all your direct lineage members will be buried with you… You can try it.”
Jin Yue's body was shaking, and her already pitiful face became even more sad and pale.
"Jin Yue..." Lian Yue called her softly and shook her head slowly at her.
Finally, the hand on her heart slowly lowered, and the tears that Jin Yue had been trying hard to hold back burst out, instantly staining her cheeks. She bowed deeply to Xia Qingyue: “Master, Jin Yue knows... that I have made a big mistake. From now on, I will not be able to serve you.”
"Please, Master... take good care of yourself."
"..." Xia Qingyue did not respond, but turned away coldly, as if she did not want to look at Jin Yue again, and also seemed not to want others to see her expression.
Standing up slowly, Jin Yue bowed deeply to Xia Qingyue once again, preparing to leave in a daze.
“Wait.” Xia Qingyue suddenly spoke.
Jin Yue's delicate body trembled, thinking that Xia Qingyue had changed her mind, but what she heard was even more heartless and heartbreaking words: "This king does not want to see you again in this life, take your
Take all your family members with you and leave the Eastern Divine Region within thirty-six hours! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being heartless!"
"..." Jin Yue felt as if she was bathed in cold wind, her body swaying, and she uttered a voice that was almost desperate: "Jin Yue...I will obey the master's orders."
Jin Yue left, shedding tears with every step.
And Xia Qingyue never looked back to see her off.
“Lianyue,” Xia Qingyue ordered coldly with her back to everyone, “Take your men to search the surrounding star regions immediately. Even if you have to dig deep into the ground, you must capture Shui Meiyin!”
“When searching, remember to spread the news that she escaped from the Moon God Realm. Anyone who provides clues will be rewarded handsomely.”
"Yaoyue, go and keep an eye on the Liuguang Realm yourself!"
"Yes, master." Lianyue and Yaoyue obeyed the order.
At this time, the north was being invaded by demons. If the situation got out of control, they, the Moon God Realm, would have to go and suppress it immediately. But at this special moment, they dispersed so many core forces to search for Shui Meiyin...
However, with Xia Qingyue furious and Jin Yue being driven away, how could they dare to question or say anything?
At the same time, Xia Qingyue's figure also slowly faded away, and soon disappeared from their sight and spiritual perception.
…………
Shui Meiyin escaped from the Moon God Realm, and the news spread quickly as the Moon God Realm searched for her on a large scale. However, with the demonic threat at hand, this news attracted some attention, but it did not cause any additional waves.
In the Zhoutian God Realm, Zhou Xuzi was already standing in front of the teleportation array. He stood there quietly for more than half an hour, thinking about all possible battle situations.
He heard the news that Shui Meiyin had escaped from the Moon God Realm, but it did not distract him.
Finally, his mind clearly laid out the occupied star realms and the distribution of demons in the northern part of the Eastern Region. He opened his eyes, flashing with a cold light: "Activate the formation."
The white light from the dimensional formation shot up into the sky, covering an area of dozens of miles.
“Taiyu,” Zhou Xuzi transmitted in a low voice, “Pay attention to my transmission at all times. When the time comes, immediately mobilize all the star realms and mystics in the central and southern parts with the voice of Eternal Heaven, and push north with all your strength to kill the demons who have no way out.”
"Taiyu understands." The voice of Venerable Taiyu came quickly.
The dimensional array was operating violently, and the vast dimensional force caused tsunami-like waves to roll up the surrounding space.
Only the Eternal Heaven Realm can forge such a huge dimensional formation in just a few days.
“Everyone,” the Eternal Heaven God Emperor said to the upper realm kings, “This disaster was caused by me. I am extremely grateful for your help.”
He did not argue that he was being blamed for something he had done wrong, because he knew no one would believe him and that forcing clarification would have the opposite effect.
“How can the Emperor of Heaven be talking about that? The Emperor of Heaven maintained the order of the Eastern Region, destroyed the calamity of the Evil Infant, and quelled countless disasters. His achievements are immeasurable. How can the disaster we are facing today obscure even a little bit of the holy brilliance of the Emperor of Heaven?” An upper realm king said immediately.
“This calamity is shared by all of us in the Eastern Divine Region! How can the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm bear it alone? Those cowardly and useless star realms in the northern border… After we have wiped out all the demons, we will settle accounts with them!”
"With our combined strength, we can wipe out all the demons within ten days!"
Although the Eternal Heaven God Realm was the main culprit for all of this, its divine power and holy name that had lasted for hundreds of thousands of years were unshakable after all.
Six guardians, thirty Eternal Heaven elders, and more than one hundred and forty upper-level star realm kings came in person, bringing with them a large number of the star realm’s core combat forces.
Including Zhou Xuzi, there were nearly two hundred God Lords, thousands of God Sovereigns, and a huge team of God Kings and God Spirits... mixed with all kinds of incomparably terrifying auras of mysterious weapons.
Just as the Moon God Emperor said, the Eternal Heaven God Realm did not move for several days, and once it moved it was preparing to drive the invading Northern Territory demons straight to death.
"After I put down the demon rebellion, I will give you and the Eastern Divine Region an explanation."
After he finished speaking, Zhou Xuzi waved his hand and said, "Open the formation, go!"
The power of the dimension was released, sending waves of strong men from the Eastern Region from the Eternal Heaven God Realm directly to the northern border - which was also the rear of the invading demons.
In less than two quarters of an hour, everyone had been teleported.
The Eternal Heaven God Realm suddenly returned to peace.
However, no one noticed from beginning to end that there was a bit of weirdness mixed in with this calmness.
Not long after the Emperor of Eternal Heaven left, three hunched black shadows flashed out from the darkness at the edge of Eternal Heaven, then split into three directions and disappeared into the darkness.
In the north of the border of the Eastern Divine Territory, as the dense white light spread, a dimensional formation appeared out of thin air, and a large number of figures flew out of it, and each of them released an extremely powerful aura.
Zhou Xuzi, along with Zhou Qingfeng, was the last one to walk out of the mysterious formation.
It was extremely quiet here, so quiet that it was a little eerie, and there was not a single demon in sight.
"Master, how should we act?" a guardian asked while releasing his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings.
Zhou Xuzi stretched out his hand, and a huge projection appeared in front of him. On the projection was the entire picture of the star realm in the northern border of the Eastern Region. The star realm occupied by the demons was dyed black.
He pointed his finger, and dozens of white lights appeared on the projection: "Use these fifty points as the starting point, and form a team from the three realms to block all the retreat routes of the demons... There is no need to pay attention to the state of the star realm, and kill the demons with all your strength."
“When the sound of Eternal Heaven rises and the north and south are encircled, they will have no way to ascend to heaven!”
The voice of the Eternal Heaven God Emperor was extremely low.
Among the invading demons this time, there were many demons from the God Realm, but no demons from the King Realm. While he was mocking in his heart, he couldn't help but feel fortunate.
"As expected of Zhou Tian, who is extremely good at spatial power, a very good encirclement and killing strategy.
I wish you success.”
A woman's voice, as soft as a faint breeze and as charming as a devil's chant, came faintly from behind.
Zhou Xuzi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and everyone turned around suddenly at the same moment.
In the northern sky, a female figure stood quietly, only a few miles away from them...but no one, including Zhou Xuzi, noticed when she appeared there.
“Demon Queen!” The projection went out, and Zhou Xuzi turned around. He stared at Chi Wuyao’s figure and smiled faintly, “I thought you didn’t have the courage to walk out of the darkness.”
The word "Demon Queen" made the faces of the Eternal Sky Guardian and the upper realm kings suddenly change.
She was alone, with no other presence around her.
Boom!!
The six Eternal Heaven Guardians stepped out together, releasing Eternal Heaven divine power at the same time. For a moment, it roared like thunder, and the clouds in the sky all collapsed under the divine might.
"Don't act rashly." Zhou Xuzi raised his hand to stop them.
On the other side, there was only Chi Wuyao, while this side had gathered an incomparably terrifying force.
However, he had faced Chi Wuyao twice in his life, and both times he suffered a great loss... The third time he faced her alone with a huge battle array, his heartstrings could not relax at all, and they were still as heavy as a thousand mountains pressing down on his soul.
And it couldn't be a coincidence that she appeared at this place at this time!
“I am only a weak woman after all. How could I have the guts to step into the terrifying dragon’s den and tiger’s lair of the Eastern Divine Region?” Chi Wuyao’s voice was soft and gentle, entering the ears and hearts of all the God Lords, making their entire bodies numb. The vision of the God Sovereigns and God Kings gradually blurred, and the profound energy in their bodies unconsciously subsided.
"Hmph!" Zhou Xuzi snorted softly, but it was refreshing and soul-shaking, causing the mysterious practitioner who was in a state of slight daze to shudder violently, and then his whole body was covered in cold sweat.
The scene of Zhou Qingchen's tragic death flashed before his eyes. Zhou Xuzi clenched his five fingers slowly. He suppressed his anger, but his voice slowly sank: "Let all of you from the Soul Stealing Realm get out. Hiding your head and showing your tail will only make people laugh at you!"
Chi Wuyao pursed her lips and smiled softly, her smile full of meaning: “The Eternal Heaven God Emperor’s bad habit of being suspicious has not changed at all. The group of lovely children I have just met are not here. They are in a place... that will give you an even greater ‘surprise’.”
"?" Zhou Xuzi frowned fiercely.
Chi Wuyao’s eyes turned darkly. Facing the terrifying aura in front of her that was enough to overwhelm everything, she was not afraid at all. Instead, her smile deepened. “To have gathered so much power in such a short time and to have built such a terrifying dimensional formation, you are indeed Zhou Tian. You are truly amazing.”
“However,” she exhaled faintly, speaking charmingly, “If we move such a huge force out of the Eastern Divine Region and cannot return for a while… what should we do?”
As soon as she finished speaking, in the distance, the dimensional formation that had just completed the transmission mission suddenly trembled violently, and then collapsed with a loud bang, turning into a sky full of broken white light.
"!!!" This sudden change made Zhou Xuzi's face change drastically.
The base of this dimensional formation was in the Eternal Heaven Realm, and it suddenly collapsed. The only possibility... was that the main formation in the Eternal Heaven Realm was destroyed!
…………
Eternal Heaven God Realm.
A deafening roar sounded from three directions simultaneously.
And... the dark aura that rises into the sky, so eerie that it makes people feel cold all over.
The dimensional formation that had just been built and transported Zhou Xuzi and others to the northern border of the Eastern Region collapsed and was destroyed in a ball of terrifying dark light.
At the same time, the dimensional formations that were set up around the Eternal Heaven God Realm and connected the major king realms and many main areas of the Eastern God Territory all collapsed rapidly in the sudden darkness.
All this happened suddenly and without any warning.
These main and secondary formations have existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Each one is extremely tough and cannot be destroyed by ordinary forces.
However, the ones who destroyed these main profound formations were the three most terrifying beings in the Northern Divine Region—the Three Yama Ancestors!
The Eternal Heaven God Realm was severely alarmed, and countless figures filed out, rushing straight towards the direction where the dark aura exploded.
In the center of the Eternal Heaven God Realm, a core place that even the Eternal Heaven elders could not enter at will, a black figure slowly walked out from the virtual to the real.
Yun Che!
No one knew how or when he would arrive.
Even the Eternal Heaven Guardians who stayed behind did not detect any unusual figures or auras from beginning to end.
In front of him was a huge bell. This was another artifact left by the gods in the Eternal Heaven Realm. After the Eternal Heaven Realm became a king realm, its name was changed to "Eternal Heaven Bell".
The "Voice of Eternal Heaven" that can easily transmit anyone's voice throughout the entire Eastern Divine Region is accomplished with the help of this bell.
He placed his palm on the Eternal Heaven Bell, and the dark profound energy forcibly activated the power of the Eternal Heaven Bell. The corner of his mouth curled up into a sinister arc like that of an evil spirit:
"Dance, sons of darkness!"
The Eternal Heaven Bell rang, transmitting the terrifying and gloomy voice of the devil to every corner of the Eastern Divine Region, resounding above every piece of the sky in the Eastern Divine Region.
As if under the devilish sound coming from the bottom of the abyss, the entire Eastern Divine Region suddenly became dark and depressing.
Countless Eastern Region profound practitioners looked up in horror. And in countless corners of the Eastern Divine Region, pairs of dark eyes that had been waiting for a long time suddenly opened at this moment, releasing endless violent demonic light.
