“Stop!” Suddenly, a voice echoed through the void. It came from a short man standing beside the Venomous Ying Realm God.
Dongbo Xueying turned to look.
The short man, clad in black robes, declared loudly, “Your Highness Dongbo, I come under the orders of my master.”
“Your master?” Dongbo Xueying raised a hand to halt his subordinates. “If I’m not mistaken, you must be Realm God Dongxiao. Is your master the Divine Emperor Wuchen?”
“Indeed,” the short man replied with a faint smile.
The Divine Emperor Wuchen—a Fourth Heaven Realm God whose master was none other than the Lord of Zhushan Mansion.
However, it was said that Emperor Wuchen was utterly devoted to cultivation. Why would he send an underling to protect Venomous Ying? This puzzled Dongbo Xueying.
His subordinates, too, grew wary. A Fourth Heaven Realm God was a hegemon in their own right—anyone would hesitate before crossing one.
“Yes, I act under the command of my master, the Divine Emperor Wuchen,” the short man continued. “This matter of faith power must be a misunderstanding. Why not sit down and resolve it? Your Highness Dongbo, would you grant my master this courtesy?”
“Must Emperor Wuchen involve himself in this?” Dongbo Xueying frowned.
His feud with Venomous Ying was no secret!
For Emperor Wuchen to intervene and forbid his vengeance was nothing short of a blatant disregard for his authority. Why would a man so obsessed with cultivation meddle like this?
“If the Emperor has spoken, it must be done,” the short man retorted, his brow furrowing. “Do you dare refuse his face?”
Venomous Ying sneered from the side.
“Realm God Venomous Ying has long been suspected of stealing vast amounts of faith power. Now, with millions of harvesters dead under suspicious circumstances, she must be taken to the Divine Court for investigation,” Dongbo Xueying said coldly. “Realm God Dongxiao, leave at once.”
The short man froze. Venomous Ying gaped in shock.
“You dare?!” the short man roared. “You dare defy my master?”
“Your master? He asks for my respect yet offers me none in return,” Dongbo Xueying’s eyes burned with fury. “Attack!”
“Yes!”
Commander Baili Shang immediately obeyed.
**BOOM!**
Commander Baili, his ten captains, and a thousand soldiers activated their armor runes in unison. The vast army moved as one, and Commander Baili, wielding a massive axe, slashed through the sky with a furious strike. The force of the entire army amplified his blow, elevating its power to the level of a Third Heaven Realm God.
The axe tore through the void—then vanished, reappearing instantly before Venomous Ying.
Venomous Ying’s body suddenly expanded to colossal proportions. Her enormous tail coiled like a serpent, dwarfing the thousand soldiers around her. Her upper half remained humanoid, gripping a massive venomous trident. Meanwhile, the dark mists of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss churned, swirling around her like a living shroud.
This was her lair, fortified over countless years with countless formations. Here, her strength soared. Normally weak in direct combat, within her domain, her power surged to terrifying heights—every movement carried devastating force.
“Scram!” Venomous Ying lashed her tail.
**WHOOSH!**
The tail swept across the void, smashing into the axe. Commander Baili’s expression darkened as he and his thousand soldiers were sent staggering backward.
“Hmm?” Dongbo Xueying frowned. “Venomous Ying is said to excel in curses and poisons, not close combat. Yet she repelled an entire battalion? The formations here must amplify her strength tremendously.”
“Again!”
“Surround her!”
Commander Baili barked orders, leading his troops to encircle her.
“Get out of my way!” Venomous Ying swung her trident with overwhelming force, scattering the soldiers like leaves in a storm. They were flung violently against the jagged rocks of the abyss or hurled into the void. Yet, bolstered by the Divine Court’s battle formations, each soldier—normally only at the threshold of Realm God strength—now fought with true Realm God power. The attacks were dispersed across the formation, leaving them largely unharmed.
“Your Highness, her combat prowess is too great. We cannot subdue her,” Commander Baili transmitted urgently.
A single battalion could only match an ordinary Third Heaven Realm God.
With the endless enhancements of her lair, Venomous Ying’s strength now rivaled the peak of the Third Heaven. Even two battalions might only fight her to a standstill—capturing her was near impossible.
“I am a member of the Divine Court, holding the Fifth Rank. Dongbo Xueying is merely an Inspector—he has no authority to arrest me,” Venomous Ying sneered, her massive tail sweeping aside soldiers like insects as she glared down at Dongbo Xueying.
This was a legal quagmire.
Dongbo Xueying’s authority was limited. He held no punitive power over Fifth Rank Realm Gods.
If he dragged her to the Divine Court and she was proven innocent, he would face penalties. But if she was guilty, his minor breach of protocol would be overlooked.
Yet now—
He couldn’t even apprehend her!
“Dongbo Xueying, your forces are too weak to take me,” Venomous Ying taunted, her gargantuan form looming over his minuscule subordinates. “I have refined my body into a vessel of venom, augmented by the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss. Did you truly think you could defeat me?”
“A venom-forged body? Empowered by the abyss?”
Dongbo Xueying suddenly extended his right hand.
His palm, smooth as jade, expanded rapidly. His arm stretched millions of miles in an instant, tearing through the void. The Ten Thousand Calamities Primordial Body sought to cultivate a primordial world within every particle of his being. At its peak, his body would be immeasurably vast—a single finger alone spanning billions of miles.
Though only at the sixth layer, his divine form could still grow to staggering proportions.
Now, his arm swelled, his fingers like celestial pillars wreathed in shimmering white light, radiant and pure.
“Hah! Pathetic, Dongbo. Size alone does not determine strength,” Venomous Ying mocked, her voice echoing. Yet she wasted no time—her colossal tail whipped forward with devastating force, crashing toward the enormous hand.
**BOOM!**
The sky-obscuring palm met the tail in a cataclysmic collision.
For a moment, the hand paused—then descended with even greater fury.
“Impossible!” Venomous Ying’s eyes widened in horror.
She had no time to evade.
**CRASH!**
The colossal hand slammed her into the mountain of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss. The impact carved a massive palm print into the towering peak, sending shattered rocks flying in all directions.
“What?!” Realm God Dongxiao gaped in disbelief. Even with the abyss’s power, Venomous Ying had been swatted into the mountain like an insect.
The countless Realm Gods and hundreds of millions of deities within the abyss stared in shock.
Even Dongbo Xueying’s own subordinates—along with Dongbo Yu and Dongbo Qingyao—could only watch in awe at their father’s overwhelming might.
