Empress Duobao, who valued Su Han based on a glimpse into his future, had not hesitated to start a war over him. Naturally, she could not remain indifferent during this life-or-death battle with the Tian Lou Saint.
She had been paying close attention to the situation, but the turn of events was unexpected. The Tian Lou Saint had sohow managed to invoke the residual resentnt of Great Saint Xuan Ming, while Su Han harbored an imnse secret of his own. The mont the mysterious black light appeared, it devoured everything.
Even if my Original Body were here, it couldn’t withstand this!
Empress Duobao’s heart sank as she gained a new understanding of the black light’s terrifying power.
By now, the black light had spread to 300,000 ters, creating a vast Dark World. With her strength, she could only hinder it slightly. She could not stop it completely.
Empress Duobao controlled the Purified Emperor Bamboo and commanded, "Purify!" Instantly, beams of Purified Holy Light blossod and shot toward the black light. This Holy Light could purify all malevolence, allowing no dark energy to escape. She wanted to test if the Purified Emperor Bamboo would have any effect.
The next mont, the Purified Holy Light made contact with the black light. However, the sacred light that could purify all malevolence was silently devoured without causing so much as a ripple.
Clearly, the Purified Holy Light had no effect. The only thing that seed to work was the Power of Space-Ti.
"Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain!"
Although Empress Duobao was only a Doppelganger, she still possessed so of her Original Body’s power. A vast torrent of Holy Light surged out, transforming into a Space-Ti Domain 30,000 ters across. Within the Domain, there was not only a dense Spatial Force but also countless strands of the Power of Ti. It twinkled with the light of innurable treasures, as if it contained hundreds or even thousands of powerful artifacts.
BOOM!
The Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain collided with the black light, unleashing a powerful shockwave. Heaven and earth distorted, threatening to revert to chaos and reenact creation.
The Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain was strong, but the Dark World was simply too vast. Its range of 300,000 ters—ten tis that of her domain—allowed it to press down directly, subjecting Empress Duobao to imnse pressure.
"Purified Emperor Bamboo!"
Empress Duobao spurred the bamboo, its intense Imperial Might reinforcing the Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain. She also activated all the treasures within her domain to enhance its power. But even so, she was steadily forced back, unable to contend with the Dark World.
What on earth is this? Could Su Han have received the inheritance of an Evil Demon?
Empress Duobao was shocked, her mind racing with speculation as she resisted the Dark World.
CRACK!
In the end, the Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain could not withstand the vast Dark World. A clear crack appeared, followed by many more until the domain could no longer sustain itself. Finally, it burst apart in a thunderous explosion.
BOOM!
With space and ti thrown into disarray, energy erupted in all directions. The heavens shattered, the earth split, and all things turned to ash. Of the 100,000 spectators, over ten thousand were caught in the aftermath and perished instantly, their bodies utterly obliterated.
Even the Xiao Family’s warship and the Ye Family’s jade chariot were damaged. The Jade Flute Saint and Female Saint Yueqing were injured while protecting Xiao Tianming and Ye Lingyin. The Heavenly Dragon Saint fared no better. Struck by the Power of Space-Ti, he was sent flying while vomiting blood, leaving him with grievous injuries.
In that mont, as her Myriad Treasures Heavenly Domain exploded, Empress Duobao found herself unable to stop the encroaching darkness. It seed likely that only several Great Emperors acting in unison could halt the continuously growing Dark World. But she was the only one here, and a re Doppelganger at that. It was utterly impossible to gather the forces needed.
Empress Duobao’s heart grew heavy. Clutching the Purified Emperor Bamboo, she resisted the engulfing black light while desperately searching for a way to stop it.
Hm?
Suddenly, her expression shifted as she keenly sensed that sothing was amiss. The spread of the black light steadily slowed before halting completely. Then, like a receding tide, it began to retract.
What is happening?
Empress Duobao was puzzled, unable to fathom the cause. But when the others witnessed this scene, they assud it was her doing.
"It’s finally stopped! As expected of a Great Emperor, she didn’t just block the black light; she’s making it retreat!"
"Phew, that scared to death! I thought I was done for. I only ca here to watch, not to die a horrible death!"
"What on earth is that black light? It was so terrifying that it even shattered Empress Duobao’s domain."
The survivors, having narrowly escaped death, buzzed with discussion. Of the original 100,000 spectators, many had died or been injured, leaving only a little over 80,000.
"Look!" soone suddenly cried out in alarm.
Everyone followed the voice and saw that as the black light receded, the land it had previously engulfed was left pitch-black—a desolate wasteland. There were no plants, no rivers, not even air or Spiritual Energy. It had beco a land of absolute desolation. From afar, it appeared as a realm of darkness, its sky dyed a permanent black.
The black light continued to recede until it finally re-entered the Demonic Emperor Physique, which then subrged back into the crown of Su Han’s head. At that mont, Su Han was no longer in his mindless state, but had instead fallen into a deep coma, his eyes tightly shut as if he were rely asleep.
"Holy teor Mountain is gone!"
Another cry of shock rose through the crowd. The towering Holy teor Mountain had completely vanished, and the spot where Su Han now lay was nothing but flat ground. People rubbed their eyes, thinking it was an illusion. But while one person could be mistaken, how could over 80,000 people all be seeing the sa thing?
Holy teor Mountain had indeed vanished, uprooted without a trace. The other areas engulfed by the black light still existed, but Holy teor Mountain alone was gone. It was beyond bizarre.
Regardless, the black light had finally receded, and the terrifying Dark World was gone, leaving only the pitch-black wasteland behind.
At this mont, the way everyone looked at Su Han changed, their gazes now filled with terror and dread. They did not know what secrets he harbored, but the black light they had witnessed today would beco a lifelong nightmare. Their terror toward Su Han now far outweighed any admiration they once held. For such a young and powerful monster to mature... was that really a good thing? Everyone was skeptical. After all, Evil Demons were legendary malevolent beings, and no one wished to see them reappear in the world.
SWOOSH!
At that mont, a streak of cyan light soared across the sky like a rainbow and landed on Su Han. With the Dark World gone, Empress Duobao’s power was no longer obstructed. The cyan light enveloped Su Han, lifting him into the air.
"Let’s go!"
Empress Duobao waved her hand, instantly tearing open a rift in space. The cyan light carried Su Han into the Void as Empress Duobao, Yun Chang, and Saint You Heng followed closely behind.
Soon, the spatial rift closed, and the figures of Su Han, Empress Duobao, and the others vanished.
The life-or-death duel had co to a complete end. However, its impact had only just begun.
