Stalling the other Forces, it was an absolute necessity.

 

That said, it was both simple and complex, depending on how Nine Tails, Sarcosuchus, and the others executed it.

 

In this matter, Yu Zi Yu neither wished to intervene nor needed to. After all, he had complete confidence in Nine Tails and Sarcosuchus.

 

Even so, as he pondered, Yu Zi Yu could not help but offer a gentle reminder, “Let me emphasize this—stalling the other Forces  is of critical importance. It directly determines the success or failure of my assault on the Angel Clan…You understand what I mean, right?”

 

Hearing this, Nine Tails, Sarcosuchus, and the others straightened their expressions.

 

In unison, they responded, “Please rest assured, Supreme Lord. We will execute your instructions flawlessly.”

 

Even Golden Monkey, usually more lighthearted, showed a firm resolve in his gaze.

 

“Good. I trust you all.” Nodding his acknowledgement, Yu Zi Yu dismissed the group.

 

Yu Zi Yu only gave a simple directive, and he believed it was enough for this matter.

 

He had left the rest to Nine Tails and Sarcosuchus, and he knew that they would surely deliver a satisfying ‘answer sheet.’

 

…

 

After dismissing everyone, the Realm of Life once again returned to its usual tranquility—if not more desolate than before.

 

This was unavoidable.

 

Yu Zi Yu’s Tenth Realm had extracted a significant portion of the Quintessence from the Nine Realms, which had caused them to inevitably decline.

 

Rooted at the center of the Realm of Life, as Yu Zi Yu looked up, he saw nothing but withered vegetation and barren mountains, a desolation beyond words.

 

At this sight, a helpless sigh couldn’t help but escape Yu Zi Yu.

 

“This is truly pitiful for the creatures of the Nine Realms…” Yu Zi Yu lamented, an uncommon act upon his part, as he channeled his Spiritual Energy.

 

In response, the sky darkened, an ominous veil of rolling clouds spreading across the firmament.

 

*Boooom, crackle…* Bolts of lightning split Heaven, their thunderous echoes reverberating far and wide. The air grew heavy, and moments later, the downpour began.

 

*Pitter-patter, pitter-patter…* Raindrops fell from Heaven, sharp as blades.

 

But upon closer inspection, one would notice that these raindrops were not ordinary. They shimmered with a faint, ethereal green glow.

 

This was the Rain of Vitality—a miraculous phenomenon born of Yu Zi Yu’s Life Essence fused with the Azure Dragon’s power to command rain.

 

This rain, enveloping the Nine Realms, not only nourished all things but also rekindled the earth’s vitality.

 

It was all Yu Zi Yu could do for now.

 

After all, this was not the time to tend to these matters—Yu Zi Yu had far more pressing tasks.

 

Not to mention summoning an army, even nurturing the Treants required his attention.

 

[Once the assault on the Angel Clan succeeds, I will restore the Nine Realms to their former glory.] With this silent vow, Yu Zi Yu’s consciousness delved into the Void Space, choosing once again to inhabit his Purple Dragon Form.

 

*Roooooaar…* A long and resonant Dragon’s roar suddenly echoed within the Void Space, majestic and commanding.

 

Accompanying it was the immense, seemingly endless body of a colossal Purple Dragon, gliding slowly through the Void Space.

 

…

 

Time flows differently when cultivating. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.

 

Two years—though brief—were but a fleeting moment for cultivators, equivalent to mere days for mortals.

 

Yet within these two years, the Demon Court had risen to unparalleled prominence, its name echoing throughout the starry skies.

 

The Celestial Fox, Nine Tails; the Demon Master, Golden Monkey; and the Primordial Beast, Sarcosuchus. These figureheads of the Demon Court were now widely recognized across the cosmos.

 

It was not surprising either. With Yu Zi Yu’s Void Elf Form and Divine Tree supporting them behind the scenes, the Major Forces held a cautious respect for the Demon Court.

 

This was only natural.

 

Not to mention the Void Elf Form was a Master of Space. Its unpredictability and power were enough to strike fear into the hearts of all races.

 

Yu Zi Yu’s True Body—the Divine Tree—was shrouded in an unfathomable mystery, far beyond what ordinary beings could comprehend.

 

Given this, how could the Major Forces not feel apprehensive?

 

A single Void Elf was already a threat they might struggle to contend with.

 

And then there was the Divine Tree—a being so profound that it had once single-handedly barred the Void Emperor from entry. It had further deepened the mystery surrounding it.

 

Meanwhile, none had the faintest inkling of what lay beyond the stars, in the uncharted realms of space where the Demon Court resided.

 

*Rooooaar, rooooaar, rooooaar…*

 

*Rooooaar, rooooaar, rooooaar…*

 

A deafening cacophony of roars and screeches reverberated through the infinite expanse of Void Space, shaking the very fabric of existence.

 

Stretching endlessly into the horizon, an unending Void Army stood assembled.

 

One after another, ranks upon ranks of Void Creatures gathered, forming a tide that seemed infinite, their dark silhouettes flickering against the ethereal glow of the Void.

 

Their eyes brimmed with awe, reverence, and a primal devotion, their gazes fixed on the massive, coiling Purple Dragon at the farthest edge of Void Space.dge of Void Space.

 

“We greet Lord Purple Dragon!”

 

“We greet Lord Purple Dragon!”

 

In unison, millions of Void Creatures roared, their voices converging into a thunderous chant that seemed to reverberate across the infinite Void Space.

 

The sheer force of their collective call caused the Void Space itself to ripple, waves of energy cascading outward as the majestic sound echoed far and wide.

 

“En…” Yu Zi Yu’s Purple Dragon Form nodded slightly, a faint smile curving across its colossal face.

 

This level of reverence… it was something even the Demon Court could not offer him.

 

Just imagine—millions of soldiers, their fervent gazes filled with awe, looking up at him as if he were the embodiment of Divinity itself.

 

With but a single word, countless Void Creatures would charge unflinchingly, unleashing destruction upon whoever stood in the path of his ‘sword.’

 

*Hahaha…* A deep chuckle rumbled from Yu Zi Yu’s throat as a sense of pride swelled within him.

 

Yes, the Demon Court could now muster tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of troops with ease. Yet even so, they were no match for the Void Creatures gathered before him.

 

Among the Void Creatures who had heeded Yu Zi Yu’s call, even the weakest were at Tier-2.

 

More importantly… within the Demon Court, Yu Zi Yu dared not summon a massive army so openly.

 

The Demon Court, after all, had already ascended to the stage of the universe, becoming a prominent player among the myriad factions.

 

Any significant commotion on their part would immediately draw the watchful eyes of other powers.

 

Given this, and Yu Zi Yu’s prior directive for the Demon Court to maintain a low profile, how could he possibly amass an army so brazenly?

 

However, only within the Void Space could Yu Zi Yu act so recklessly, exercising his supreme authority as the ‘Void Emperor.’

 

At this moment…

 

*Roooooar…* Another majestic roar echoed as a towering, mountain-like Humanoid Void Creature with a long eye on its face stepped forward.

 

This was Solitude, Yu Zi Yu’s Void General, a terrifying entity that had parasitized a member of the Three-Eyes Divine Race.

 

“Reporting to Lord Purple Dragon…” In a deep, rumbling voice, Solitude continued, “As of now, the Void Army numbers 2.4 million. Tier-3 and Tier-4 beings are countless… As for Tier-5 experts, there are currently 42 in total. Among them, eight Intermediate and Late Stage Tier-5 Generals have been appointed as commanders of the Eight Legions…”
