Nuwa's breakthrough was beyond the level of the Primordial Star itself, which was equivalent to breaking the barrier of this world. She single-handedly promoted the upgrading of the entire Primordial Star. Therefore, her strength after the advancement far exceeded that of an ordinary eighth-order true god.
Even though she has just broken through, she already possesses the peak strength of the early stage of the eighth rank. Given some time to settle down, she can at least reach the mid-stage of the eighth rank. Moreover, her overwhelming strength among those of the same rank is enough for her to sweep away everyone else.
Now, with the blessing of the "Investiture of the Gods", she has officially become the master of the Nuwa Palace, no longer just a "borrower" as before. As a result, her strength has once again increased by leaps and bounds, directly reaching the peak of the mid-stage of the eighth rank.
The powerful aura startled the surrounding dark creatures, causing them to hesitate briefly and dare not step forward.
But Nuwa doesn't care what they think. Once she's made her move, she won't easily back down. To survive in this environment surrounded by wolves, she must use ruthless methods to intimidate all sides. Only in this way can the primordial planet have even the slightest chance.
"A mere large lizard dares to damage my Primordial Heavenly Pillar Mountain! Today, I will sacrifice you to the heavens to make amends for the destruction of my Primordial Star!" Nuwa said coldly, stretching out her jade hand to grab the black dragon in the void.
"You're courting death!" Darkness roared angrily, opening its mouth to spew out a breath of dragon fire, but Nuwa's hand, which had ripped through the void, grabbed its neck. The scorching dragon fire was stuck in its throat and could not be expelled, turning its entire neck crimson, becoming a rare glimmer of light in the darkness.
This scene immediately stunned many of the surrounding Dark True Gods. Many of them didn't even see how Nuwa made her move. It seemed as if she easily crossed endless space and grabbed the Black Dragon in her hand.
"Boom~~~" The black dragon's body finally couldn't withstand its own dragon breath. Its neck suddenly exploded, and black flames gushed out, but they couldn't cause any harm to Nuwa. The black dragon that brought Ye Chen to the dark world also completely lost its breath.
A wisp of the dragon race's civilization spark and dragon vein crystal were brought back and handed over to Ye Chen.
"The dark world is constantly being eroded by dark energy. Using this spark of civilization as fuel can resist the darkness to a certain extent!" A pleasant voice rang in Ye Chen's mind. Nuwa, who had advanced to the eighth rank, was now qualified to learn about certain lord-level knowledge.
The awakening and advancement of the lord was originally the work of a group of high-ranking gods, a last resort to fight against darkness and save the heavens. Now that she has advanced to the eighth rank and become a true god, she also has a sliver of authority to understand this rule and agreement.
Ye Chen nodded, carefully put away the Civilization Flame and Bloodline Crystal, and continued to look up at the sky. After killing the black dragon, he had clearly intimidated the other dark creatures around him, making them dare not approach again for a while.
Dark creatures that can reach higher levels are not lacking in intelligence. Although their will has succumbed to darkness, it does not mean that they have lost the ability to think, and naturally they will not be willing to die just like that.
They are already peerless true gods who rule over a star field or even a plane, possessing endless lifespans. No one would want to die if they could live and enjoy life, even if it meant letting a few reptiles frolic in the dark star field, since eventually a higher-level dark creature would take action.
"Go! Get out of here!" Nuwa's voice rang out again. At this moment, surrounded by numerous dark creatures, it was impossible to activate teleportation. The only option was to activate the territory's movement ability and forcibly leave.
"Roar!!" Seeing that the Primordial Star dared to move in the darkness, a ram-headed demon immediately stepped out to stop them. However, it only moved slightly and took a few steps forward before Nuwa made her move without hesitation.
A red embroidered ball with ribbons appeared in her hand, which she threw forcefully at the goat-headed demon. Wisps of red flame appeared on the red embroidered ball, and all the dark creatures blocking its path disappeared.
The ram-headed demon's expression changed drastically. The seemingly ordinary ball toss carried an unparalleled force. It tried to dodge, but found itself nowhere to hide, as it was already locked onto by the red embroidered ball.
"Roar!" Roaring again, the ram-headed demon, being an eighth-order true god, could not sit idly by and wait to die. He swung his battle axe, trying to stop the red embroidered ball, but felt a tremendous force coming from it. The red embroidered ball, along with the broken battle axe, slammed hard into his chest.
"Boom!" With just this one blow, the ram-headed demon's chest was smashed open, black blood splattered everywhere, and another true god was slain.
"Whoosh~~~" The red embroidered ball returned to Nuwa's hand with a whooshing sound. Her cold gaze swept over the many dark gods behind her, and she gradually disappeared into the darkness along with the primordial star. During this process, not a single dark god dared to interfere.
With two attacks, he instantly killed two True Gods, one of whom was a Black Dragon whose strength was above average. His formidable power made the many eighth-order True Gods around him dare not make any rash moves.
They might be able to defeat Nuwa if they joined forces, but they were destined not to cooperate sincerely. The fact that they were able to unite here to open up the source of darkness was already an action strongly requested by the Black Dragon. No one dared to completely entrust their backs to others.
Ye Chen only felt slightly relieved after the Primordial Star left this star field, but he still dared not let his guard down. This was the Dark World, and the endless dark creatures around him were not just for show. They were only afraid to attack the Primordial Star because they were intimidated by Nuwa's divine power.
"Pfft~~~" In the Nuwa Palace, Nuwa, who was sitting upright, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The illusory image of Nuwa in the sky also dimmed a bit. Ye Chen was startled and his figure turned around, and he appeared in the Nuwa Palace.
"How are you? Are you alright?" Ye Chen asked with concern. This was the pillar of stability on the primordial planet; it couldn't possibly be damaged!
"It's nothing, just a bit too much energy. Once I've repaired the celestial constellations and the divine shield, I'll need to rest for a while and stabilize my own realm!" Nuwa said, tossing a lump of clay into the sky, where it scattered and transformed into countless stars.
Subsequently, a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth converged at the gap, and the sacred shield, which originally required a long time to repair itself, was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye and quickly returned to its original state. Ye Jun and the others no longer needed to guard the gap between heaven and earth.
"The darkness on the earth can only be left to others to slowly clear away. At the same time, we need to be careful of the enemies from beyond the sky. It would be best to use spatial teleportation to get away from this area and avoid those eighth-order true gods chasing after us."
"Also, Houtu should be close to completing her advancement. If you all hold on for a while, the safety of the Primordial Star should be guaranteed..."
After giving a long and detailed explanation, Nuwa fell into a deep sleep. The gates of the Nuwa Palace remained tightly shut, and even Ye Chen, as a lord, could not easily set foot inside. True gods are loyal to their territories, yet they have already broken free from their constraints...
