Chapter 702: Perfect World!

Chapter 702: Perfect World!

Yun Xiao, accompanied by the forces that pledged allegiance to him and Divine Dawn, returned to the Thunder Department.

As for the battlefield, it was left for others to clean.

The upper echelons of Lu Fan's power were nearly wiped out.

This fierce battle was even more rewarding than the last at the Thunder Department, including notable figures like the Penglai Sage and the Great Horned King—each a substantial prize.

These victories were significant, not just for Yun Xiao, but also for the War Princess and Pale Revenant.

As they made their way back to the Thunder Department, news of the events at Sky Soaring City had already spread across the Great Dao Celestial Realm.

The truth was out, tainting both the Celestial Court and Lu Fan together.

Yun Xiao and Divine Dawn became the new hope of the Great Dao Celestial Realm!

In an instant, a fire to overthrow the old order blazed through the entire Celestial Court.

The Thunder Department became the beacon of the Celestial Court!

The movement to fight for the common folk drew countless fervent cultivators, from all origins, to the Thunder Department.

The crowd surged like a fiery torrent.

Yun Xiao kept his eye on every reaction and movement within the Great Dao Celestial Realm.

When he heard that the Celestial Court's imperial family had incited public fury, and that Immortals were gathering at the Thunder Department to join him in overturning the Celestial Court, his heart swelled with satisfaction.

"This world, ultimately, leans towards the good. Even if the helmsman is a scoundrel, he can't drag everyone down to hell with him."

Such thoughts affirmed the value of Yun Xiao’s endeavors.

His ideals and sincere beliefs were affirmed!

"To the Thunder Department!"

"Follow the Seventh Princess, follow Lu Yao!"

To this day, people still thought of him as the young Arbiter from Sky Soaring City who loved to draw.

But whether it was Yun Xiao or Lu Yao, names hardly mattered.

People were following the man himself!

"Sweep the Celestial Court of its malice, establish the divine rules of the celestial realm!"

Under the banner of Yun Xiao and Divine Dawn, the Arbiters of the Thunder Department, celestial soldiers of the Great Dao Celestial Army, and even the ordinary Immortals continued rallying together.

"At this rate, the Heavenly Palace will be overshadowed," Yue Yin said, exhilarated by the spirited and blood-pumping scene at the Thunder Department.

"The virtuous gain followers, the wicked lose them," Gu Suwan murmured deeply.

"He's right." Yue Yin sighed. "I am truly grateful to him for giving me a chance to repent. I don’t know what else I can do, but since this life was saved, it’s worth giving it up for him again."

Gu Suwan spoke with a lightness that defied the gravity of their situation. "I believe we don't need to burden ourselves too heavily. He lacks trustworthy people to help him organize and manage his ever-growing support. That's a task for us. We'll do our best, and once the dust settles, we'll talk about life and death."

"Indeed..."

With these words, Yue Yin seemed to find her direction.

"I'll go and settle the Great Dao Celestial Army, Free Immortals, and the demons and devils of the Celestial Court, while you stabilize the Thunder Department's Arbiter forces," she said.

"Too many people can lead to chaos, and there are those who will take advantage of the confusion," Gu Suwan noted.

"Let's get to it."

Upon their return to the Thunder Department, the two women were swept up in a flurry of activity.

As expected, Yun Xiao quickly became an absentee leader, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

He was at the Hall of Soaring Thunder, meeting with Pale Revenant.

"Spit it out." Yun Xiao pointed to her slightly engorged stomach.

The colossal shadow, wrought from corpse blood, bore the entirety of the deathly force of the Sacred Emperor Barrier

By her design, Naraka's forces should have broken free by now!

The longer they lingered in the Sacred Emperor Barrier, the worse it fared for her forces.

"Devil Eye!"

On the Great Mother's flesh mass, several mangled eyes squeezed forth, glaring at the crimson giant eye behind her, she growled, "You're not pulling your weight!"

The crimson giant eye met the gaze of the numerous eyes on the flesh mass, then calmly said, "Watch."

With that, the boundless bloody eye swept across the battlefield!

Humming vibrations emanated from the crimson eyeball, and the battlefield echoed with wails. Then, in an instant, waves of blood-red ripples pulsed from the giant blood-eye, crashing over the battlefield like tidal waves.

Wave after wave of these blood-red ripples, so vast and unstoppable, engulfed everything—demons, devils, and Immortals alike—swept away in the red light in the blink of an eye!

Among them, it was clear to see the eyes of the Celestial Court's Immortals quickly clouding with blood. This blood haze drove them mad, their faces contorted, losing all reason, turning into zombie-like creatures.

They shrieked horrifically, transforming from defenders against demons and devils into indiscriminate attackers, striking foes and allies alike.

Their primary objective shifted from defense to slaughter, pure and chaotic.

This led to the collapse of the Constellation Army's defense line in a mere moment; those Immortals, turned into fierce devils, ran amok, completely abandoning the disciplined formations that were their greatest strength.

"Quickly!" The Devil Eye created chaos across the battlefield, then urged the Great Mother.

Even the Great Mother was surprised by the power of the Devil Eye.

"So effective, why didn't you use it earlier?" she said coldly.

"It needs to feed on the blood and resentment of the deceased!" the Devil's Eye replied, not without irritation.

With a grunt of acceptance, the Great Mother embraced the explanation and seized the opportunity to launch an offensive. Leading the vast army of demons and devils, she tore through the Constellation Army's defenses, surging towards the Heavenly Palace with unstoppable force.

BOOM! Once her mountainous mass of flesh and blood gathered momentum, nothing could stand in her way. Any member of the Constellation Army caught within her path was devoured alive, their bodies absorbed into her own, their lives extinguished instantly.

Even if they resisted, at best, they could tear only a small piece of flesh from the Great Mother, which exploded into a mist of blood but did little to stop her.

On the battlefield, the corpse demon was an undying shield, her power seemingly limitless.

This was precisely why the White Emperor had so dreaded the Great Mother.

Today, with the Devil Eye's aid, she dominated the battlefield, completely overpowering the Celestial Court's elite Constellation Army.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! A veritable mountain of flesh and blood, followed by a dense army of demons and devils, blazed a bloody trail through the ranks of the Constellation Army.

With a thunderous roar, the land ahead suddenly cleared, revealing a serene, elegant realm shrouded in celestial mist and breathtaking beauty. The fabled land of paradise appeared before the horde of blood-soaked demons and devils!

"Wow!"

Many demons and devils, having breached the Sacred Emperor Barrier, beheld the legendary Heavenly Palace for the first time and couldn't help but exclaim in awe.

Compared to the barren, disaster-stricken, desolate realm they came from, this splendid Heavenly Palace was a dreamy paradise, even more perfect than the most fantastical dreams they had conjured!

"A perfect world!"

The Great Mother, a conglomeration of corpses, in some sense retained the will of the beings she devoured, and her entity had consumed mostly demons!

Her body sprouted countless eyes, each one transfixed on the celestial palaces, treating the place as if it were a succulent, multicolored peach, her numerous mouths salivating with eager anticipation.

"Eat! Eat! Eat!"

"This will all belong to us!"

"This is our new home!"
