Chapter 2902: Repairing the Human Realm, Stabilizing the Universe

Boom! Bang! Boom!

Inside the demon pillar, the rumbling sounds were already deafening, and they intensified further with Tian Ting Nu Di's entry. The pillar, which was already vibrating, shook more violently, swaying back and forth, with numerous small fragments breaking off and falling. It had begun to fracture and could collapse at any moment.

Yet, the battle inside raged on.

The two emperors didn't even need to look to know that the Ninth Peak Emperor was being ganged up on.

That guy must have been stunned, thinking, *I've already entered the Qing Tian Mo Zhu, and they still dare to chase me in for a fight?*

*Do people from Zhu Tian never stop until they've beaten someone to death?*

Stunned as he was, he still had no sense of shame.

Even with divine power boosting him, and the two empresses suppressed, he focused solely on escaping. Not just escaping, but escaping as fast as possible. Once he reached the other end, his mission would be complete. Though defeated, he would have atoned by luring in the two empresses.

Alas, his hopes were beautiful, but reality was harsh. He wanted to flee, only to be blocked and driven back by the two empresses.

*Came to Zhu Tian and still want to leave?*

Boom! Rumble!

Amid the roaring, the demon pillar cracked even more severely, with larger chunks of debris breaking away.

"Fast, fast, fast."

Ming Di uttered these three words in a low roar, his eyes not just bloodshot but with bulging pupils.

"Fast, fast, fast."

Even Dao Zu, usually composed, was no longer calm.

At this critical moment, you two should stop fighting. If they don't come out, Zhu Tian will be doomed too, and eons of planning will be ruined in an instant.

Besides, Ye Chen is still lying there. Can't we save him first? There might still be a chance, at least to say goodbye.

"I am unwilling."

From within the demon pillar, a roar echoed, the voice belonging to the Ninth Peak Emperor—a desperate wail.

And that was exactly the case.

In the dark passage, his imperial body was smashed into a mist of blood by a palm from Tian Ting Nu Di, and his Emperor Dao Yuan Shen was obliterated into flying ash by a sword from Ji Ning Shuang.

The last peak emperor had finally met his end on the road to the underworld, allowing the two empresses to breathe a sigh of relief.

This proved once again that shameless people meet no good end; shameless emperors always face retribution.

Like those nine audacious peak emperors, their deaths were not just tragic—they were unimaginably horrific.

Bang bang bang bang!

As the two empresses relaxed, a series of bangs rang out one after another. From the perspective of the two realms, it sounded like a string of firecrackers, each louder than the last.

Upon closer inspection, it wasn't firecrackers at all, but a second wave of Qing Tian Mo Zhu descending. Not just descending, but in numbers that made the two empresses' hearts skip a beat.

It wasn't just one; there were hundreds. There were pitch-black Tian Mo Zhu, blood-red E Mo Zhu, and black-gold Sheng Mo Zhu. Some landed in the domains, some in Da Chu, some in Xuan Huang, some in You Ming, and some in the starry skies. Perhaps they arrived without order, as each one that descended produced a boom, creating the chain of explosive sounds.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Hundreds of demon pillars vibrated in unison, their demonic sounds intertwining and enveloping Zhu Tian. Demonic aura surged, shrouding Ren Jie.

The sight was truly awe-inspiring.

"This."

Even the fleeing Tian Mo and E Mo paused instinctively. So many demon pillars—with Tian Mo, E Mo, and Sheng Mo among them—it was their first time witnessing such a grand scene.

"This."

The Zhu Tian cultivators, who were in pursuit of the Tian Mo and E Mo, froze at the sight.

Were those Qing Tian Mo Zhu? There were far too many. If each pillar released an emperor, that would mean hundreds of foreign emperors. Hundreds of them could reduce Zhu Tian to ashes!

Tian Ming and the two emperors fell silent, both staring at the Ninth Tian Mo Zhu.

The Ninth Peak Emperor is gone—why haven't you two come out? Hundreds of Qing Tian Mo Zhu aren't a joke. Destroy them while the great emperors haven't arrived yet.

Boom! Bang! Boom!

As they watched, booming sounds erupted again from the Ninth Mo Zhu, suggesting another fierce battle.

The two emperors frowned and exchanged glances.

Was that Ninth Peak Emperor not dead?

But on second thought, it wasn't that simple. Likely, another Tian Mo Emperor had arrived, coincidentally encountering the two empresses inside the demon pillar. Without a word, they clashed.

And indeed, that was what happened. Another Tian Mo Emperor had come—this one a peak emperor, the Tenth Peak Emperor.

What could be said? He arrived full of bravado, only to be beaten senseless. How was he to know that two empresses were waiting in his demon pillar's passage?

At first glance, they seemed to be early-stage emperors.

Upon closer look, they truly were early-stage emperors, and quite beautiful at that.

But after taking two slaps, he understood a truth: The beautiful ones are usually not to be trifled with. Like these two empresses, though early-stage, they were fiercely powerful and utterly mad, attacking without a word and going all out.

He must be the most awkward emperor in all the foreign invasions.

He hadn't even stepped out the door before being hammered into confusion, losing all sense of direction. A dignified peak emperor, beaten by two early-stage empresses until he could barely stand.

Ming Di took a deep breath.

Dao Zu took a deep breath too.

Those two women were truly exceptional—blocking the door and fighting like that.

If Zhu Tian's emperors were still around, they would surely give the demon pillar a thumbs-up: Among the outstanding figures, look to the present; the younger generation is formidable!

Boom!

Accompanied by a boom, a massive hole burst open in the Ninth Mo Zhu.

Then, a dark light shot out from within—it was the Tenth Peak Emperor.

Whether by coincidence or because he was beaten senseless, instead of fleeing to the Tian Mo domain, he ran straight into Zhu Tian.

Heaven and earth could attest, this peak emperor had truly been terrified, fleeing in panic without a care. He had no idea how miserably things had turned—just half of his imperial body was destroyed, his hair disheveled, his face grotesquely twisted and somewhat gloomy.

He must have been gloomy—nine peak emperors had come, yet two empresses ended up in the demon pillar and gave him a thorough thrashing. Did you nine fail to take down just the two of them?

Upon arriving in Zhu Tian, he instantly understood. There were plenty of demon pillars and Tian Mo and E Mo, and Zhu Tian was chaotic enough, but not a single one of the nine peak emperors was in sight.

Clearly, nine against two, and they still lost—not just lost, but were wiped out.

"Damned."

The moment he emerged from the demon pillar, he wanted to go back.

Nine peak emperors had been destroyed; staying here would mean the same for him. He couldn't even handle the two empresses in the demon pillar, let alone in Zhu Tian. What good was being a peak emperor? He was still suppressed.

So, in such a situation, it was better to head home. Showing off was a skill that required the right occasion.

He wanted to go back, but it was too late.

Boom! Bang!

Dong Huang Nu Di and Tian Ting Nu Di had already exited the demon pillar the instant they entered Zhu Tian, right as he tried to return. Each landed a palm, sending him flying back, hurtling through countless star domains and crashing into who knows how many demon pillars.

Upon seeing the scene in Zhu Tian, the two empresses sobered up a bit.

Boom!

Dong Huang Nu Di shattered the void with a single step, chasing straight after the Tenth Peak Emperor.

Boom!

Tian Ting Nu Di destroyed the Ninth Tian Mo Zhu with one palm, then shot like a divine light toward the pinnacle of the ethereal peaks.

These demon pillars had to be destroyed; the chaotic void of Zhu Tian had to be stabilized; and the exposed position of Ren Jie had to be concealed again.

The latter two tasks required her to handle, and only she could do it.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Hundreds of Qing Tian Mo Zhu continued to vibrate in unison.

Some of the more prominent demon pillars had already released demonic soldiers and generals, surging with overwhelming demonic aura, their eyes blood-red and faces twisted in malice. Like hordes of hellish demons, they licked their crimson tongues, intent on devouring the living in the human world.

"Zhu Tian, tremble!"

This was the first thing they said upon arriving in Zhu Tian.

"Zhu Tian, tremble!"

It was also the last thing they said upon arriving in Zhu Tian.

For at the peak of the ethereal mountains, layers of halos had already spread out, wave after wave. Wherever they passed, whether E Mo or Tian Mo, all were erased into dust. One by one, the Qing Tian Mo Zhu exploded and were destroyed, even the flying fragments of the pillars ground to ash by the halos.

This once again proved that having more demon pillars meant nothing. With a supreme being guarding Zhu Tian, no matter how many came, they were useless—a single wave of imperial aura could demolish them all.

If one wave wasn't enough, then two it was.

After wiping out the Tian Mo and E Mo, and destroying the Qing Tian Mo Zhu, Tian Ting Nu Di formed a seal with one hand, etching an ancient immortal mark on her forehead.

Then, halos emanated from her imperial body, layer upon layer, spreading from her as the center across the seas and wilderness. Each layer was infused with Emperor Dao divine power, carrying no destructive force but sweeping through the starry skies like a gentle, refreshing breeze.

This was Emperor Dao concealment and Emperor Dao repair—one to hide Zhu Tian, the other to mend Ren Jie.

The chaotic void gradually stabilized because of her.

The exposed Ren Jie was once again hidden by the mysterious forces due to her.

For this, she paid a price. Her bloodline limit state had dissipated, her face pale, blood overflowing from her lips. Her flowing hair turned strand by strand, lock by lock, into snow-white, as her lifespan and foundation drained away.

"Stable now."

Only then did Tian Ming and the two emperors truly sigh in relief, turning their gazes in unison to a distant star field, where Dong Huang Nu Di and the Tenth Peak Emperor were still battling.

Ji Ning Shuang's bloodline limit state had also faded, her imperial body stained with fresh blood.

Glancing at her opponent, the Tenth Peak Emperor was in even worse shape. The half of his imperial body that had been destroyed earlier hadn't even reformed. His blackened imperial bones were dyed with blackened imperial blood, looking utterly terrifying. Though he was an emperor, he resembled a malevolent ghost. Since arriving in Zhu Tian, he realized this cursed place was no place for him.

Zing!

Ji Ning Shuang arrived again, her sword cleaving heaven and earth.

Pfft!

A spray of imperial blood light— the remaining half of the Tenth Peak Emperor's imperial body was instantly slashed into flying ash, his illusory Yuan Shen sent hurtling away.

Ji Ning Shuang gripped her blood-dripping imperial sword, striding across the void with Emperor Dao laws swirling around the blade, brimming with destructive power.

"Join me on the road to the underworld!"

The Tenth Peak Emperor's eyes were filled with madness, his Emperor Dao divine power turning violently chaotic in an instant, surging with a force that could destroy heaven and earth.

It was clear he intended to self-destruct.

A peak emperor's self-destruction was no trivial matter. Once it exploded, it wouldn't just ruin a domain—it would bury countless lives.

However, the imagined boom did not resound.

And the Tenth Peak Emperor, who was about to self-destruct, vanished without a trace. Dong Huang Nu Di disappeared with him.

A dream?

Ming Di murmured softly, as if he had seen through it.

Indeed, it was a dream. In the moment the Tenth Peak Emperor tried to self-destruct, Ji Ning Shuang had dragged him into a dream realm.
