"What is happening?" Theo was on the alert. By the time he returned, everything was in complete chaos, with mountains and trees destroyed; even the arena was very shabby.
Theo wasted no time and teleported close to the ark. That's when he saw what was going on and was furious!
The Supreme Thunder Divine Sword appeared in Theo's hand. A pair of white wings of wind appeared on his back and began to beat at great speed.
"Theo!" Shina, who saw Theo, said her relief aloud, glad to see him arrive.
The girls looked in Theo's direction and were extremely happy, but soon an expression of pain was replaced on their faces.
In the sky, Aomi was being surrounded by 5 cultivators in the Monarch Spiritual Realm; she was very exhausted with injuries spread throughout her body.
"I'm going to kill you all!" Theo flew towards Aomi, and with his sword, he started to cut. Arms and legs began to be spread as the screams of the cultivators echoed.
In an instant, Theo killed five cultivators of the Monarch Spiritual Realm cleanly and quickly. This made the other cultivators who were fighting Athena, Waru, and Posel tremble with fear and dread.
"Daddy!" Little Yui could not stand to wait and flew towards him. She was crying a lot, with tears streaming from her eyes. All the while, she was worried and praying that her father would come back soon and put an end to these evildoers.
When one of the cultivators saw that Little Yui was no longer staying under Waru's protection, a wicked smile formed on his face and he went towards her.
But before he arrived, Theo had already teleported in front of Little Yui and with his sword, he cut in the man's direction, slicing him in half.
"Humph! Try and try to touch my precious daughter!" Theo snorted with contempt. If it weren't for the downcast and tearful daughter who hugged him tightly, he would have already cut up and turned them all into little pieces with his sword.
Little Yui cried as she said aloud, "Dad, dad! You finally came back! Yui was very worried but kept believing that Dad would come back to save us!"
"Yes. Now be a good girl and wait for Dad to end the life of these villains, okay?" Theo patted her on the head and wiped the tears from his daughter's adorable face. Seeing her cry so much broke his heart; Theo couldn't bear to see his daughter cry.
"Yes, Dad, they are all villains!" Little Yui said angrily in her adorable voice, while wiping her tears.
"Aomi, take care of her; I will deal with them," Theo said at the time that Aomi approached them. He also used the ability on her.
"Thanks, you can leave it to me." Aomi thanked him for being healed and spoke with confidence. Now that Theo arrived, she could feel more relaxed. She knew it was just a matter of time before everything was resolved.
Theo looked in the direction where Yuki, Jka, and the girls were. Seeing that everyone was fine thanks to Waru who protected them, Theo was happy. But the anger he felt for those cultivators who dared to attack his family... He would not forgive any of them!
"Theo, you turtle! You finally came!" A robust man, with dark skin and blue eyes, screamed, full of ridicule. He was not afraid, even after seeing Theo killing 6 of them, as he believed himself to be the strongest.
Theo saw that this man was someone who was attacking Waru and then attacking his family. It was then that he expanded his illusions all over the place. Everything became covered in complete silence. The man who had just spoken felt his movements restricted by an invisible force. Before he knew it, Theo appeared in front of him with a smile as bright as the sun...
But his smile was also scarier than the devil!
"You were trying to attack my family, right?! Heh... Sc.u.m like you doesn't deserve to live, let alone reincarnate!" Theo exclaimed devilishly with a cold chuckle and put his hand on the chest of the man who could not even react since he was being restricted.
"What are you going to do!?" The man screamed in alarm, but soon lost the sense of his body and that was when his worst nightmare happened.
"No, no, no!" The man... or rather, the man's soul had screamed out in denial three times. He was terrified. Although he did not know what Theo intended to do, someone who could withdraw and even touch his soul, nothing good would come of someone like that. And that's when Theo's words echoed in his mind: 'Heh... Sc.u.m like you don't deserve to live, let alone reincarnate!'
*!*
Theo screamed in his mind, intending to devour the man's soul.
Seconds later, although Theo had made no progress, he could feel his soul being strengthened. As for the cultivator's body, he kept it in his [Storage Ring]. After all, he couldn't use on this body right now, as he still needed to stabilize his cultivation and affinities.
As for the other cultivators, Theo was killing each of them one at a time. Everyone was powerless in the face of Theo's illusions. They were not even able to move when trapped by illusions.
When it was finally over, the girls flew towards Theo, full of happiness, and relief that everything had finished.
"Theo!"
"Dad!"
They all embraced Theo in a collective hug. Theo had to spend 1 hour to calm the girls down because they had gone through a very difficult situation. First it had been his disappearance, then those cultivators from other planets came to attack them.
Seeing that it was all over, the audience that once trembled with fear, vibrated with happiness; they now looked at Theo as if he were an omnipotent god. Screams and applause echoed, not only because of Theo, but it was also for Posel and Athena, who were the ones who had mainly protected them.
Theo flew over to Waru and said gratefully, "Thank you for protecting my family. I will reward you for that."
"I don't need a reward for it. I just hope you continue to help other cultivators get to the Monarch Spiritual Realm," Waru said sincerely, with a sweet smile.
"You can count on me!" Theo gave his word.

Because of everything that had happened, the rest of the tournament was postponed by one week. Theo talked to Waru and the rest for a while before saying that he needed to meditate to recover since he went through Heavenly Tribulation, causing him to need to rest. Of course, before leaving, he gathered all the bodies of the cultivators he and Aomi had killed.
At the ark, Theo took them all into the [Dimensional Room] and programmed the time inside it to be different outside. As it would take a week for the tournament to return, that would be about 5 months inside the [Dimensional Room].
"Theo, why did you disappear so suddenly? What exactly happened?" Zaira asked the moment they arrived in the [Dimensional Room].
"It all happened because I didn't go through a normal tribulation. I had to go through Divine Heavenly Tribulation, which is something that only divine beings do. As you all know, I recently became a divine beast. Because of that, I went to that place," Theo explained.
"That explains a lot." Yuki nodded, but suddenly she remembered the voice she heard in their minds, and asked, "Theo, someone told us that you were going to go through something like this, but they were very vague. Who was that woman?"
"That..." Before Theo answered, Isis wanted to leave Theo's divine sea but was restricted by an invisible force. That's when Theo felt this and authorized her entry into the [Dimensional Room].
When Isis appeared, she amazed everyone with her adorable appearance and her unfathomable power.
"Hello, I am Isis, and I am... Mm, you could say that I am a friend of Theo's," Isis told them.
"I am-" Before they started to introduce themselves, Isis interrupted and said, "I know who you all are; you could say I have watched you guys for a time."
Theo knew that with this alone, it would be difficult for them to understand and explained briefly, "For a few months, she has stayed within my divine sea. I just didn't say this before, because I wanted to wait until the right moment, and I couldn't trust her 100% at that time."
Theo knew if he had said this before, he would have frightened the girls, since a powerful divine being was living in his divine sea and he didn't even know what her intentions were. But after everything that had happened, Theo had started to trust Isis.
"Well, one thing you must know about Theo: he is too cautious and overly protective. There was no way he would let me meet you guys before," Isis said with a charming smile.
Of course, if she had wanted to, she could have appeared in front of them, even without Theo leaving, but she didn't. Why? Even Theo didn't know.
"Ohh, inside this room, it's even better than being close to it." Feeling the fresh air, full of mana, Isis was genuinely surprised.
"You can cultivate here if you want," Theo offered.
"Seriously? I will not restrain myself then." Isis smiled. She felt that the mana inside this room was purer than many middle-class planets, even better than some high-class ones.
"Okay, you can continue talking without me. I need to meditate urgently." Theo said this and went to a corner of the [Dimensional Room].
While Theo went to meditate, the girls stayed close to Isis talking.
Alice, who was silent all the time, went out to make tea for them to drink while talking. She mainly took the spiritual leaves made up of a lot of mana to make tea.
