The starry sky was awash in crimson, but this red was unlike the gory hue of spilled blood. It carried a grandeur, a nobility. It was an otherworldly essence, as if the divine blood was spilled across the cosmos.

 

And in the very instant that bloodlight spread through Heaven—

 

*Booooom…* A deafening roar shook the starry sky, as the nine stars shot forth from the Crimson Heavenly Eye that had opened in Yu Zi Yu’s brow, much to the countless powerhouses astonishment.

 

“Grand Divine Ability, Realmbreaker Eye…” A faint yet majestic roar echoed across the starry expanse.

 

Meanwhile, as the nine stars shot out, they rapidly expanded and started spinning about each other, weaving an arcane and mysterious Formation.

 

Then came a dazzling radiance, limitless and blinding, crashing toward the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree.

 

Surprisingly, the nine stars transcended time and space, and reached the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree in but a blink.

 

And at this point, each of the nine was no smaller than the Moon of the Solar System.

 

Each of the star was massive and terrifying, and carried a devastating aura of annihilation.

 

What’s more, when shot together, they showcased the signs of a Formation.

 

Thus…

 

*Boooooom…* Space fractured, the universe collapsed, and even the vast black clouds veiling the cosmos were scattered, as the nine stars, radiant with indestructible brilliance, slammed directly into the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree.

 

And in that moment, all the gazes froze.

 

*Crack…* A crisp and sharp sound of something shattered resounded.

 

Even the mighty Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree could not withstand the impact. Its colossal trunk began to fracture inch by inch.

 

“This can’t be real!”

 

“No way…Did the Demon Emperor call it a Grand Divine Ability, the Realmbreaker Eye? A Grand Divine Ability that has never been seen before!?”

 

“Heavens… when the Kun Peng Clan mastered the ‘Kun Peng Art,’ they could overcome stronger foes. But the Demon Emperor, he’s already achieved a Seventh Order Physique! Now, he can even unleash a Grand Divine Ability like this… how terrifying is he really!?”

 

…

 

Cries of disbelief echoed one after another. Even the strongest found themselves breathless.

 

However, none felt it more than the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree.

 

He was scorched by unbearable flames, engulfing the entirety of him.

 

And then came freezing cold, cold that could freeze the Soul itself.

 

Flame and frost alternated. Even a being as powerful as him could not endure. His body continued to crumble.

 

And that was not all.

 

The power of other realms began to unfold.

 

The Realm of Life drained his vitality.

 

The World of Darkness sealed away his senses.

 

The World of Mist restrained his every movement…

 

One after another, these realms revealed their devastating might.

 

Even someone as strong as the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree was powerless to struggle, left to the mercy of the ever-rotating cycle of the Nine Realms, ground into nothing bit by bit.

 

And this, this was the Grand Divine Ability engraved into the minds of every witness across the cosmos—the Realmbreaker Eye.

 

Of course, the Realmbreaker Eye was merely the name Yu Zi Yu uttered in the moment.

 

He had no desire to conceal his Divine Ability. With it revealed, all in the starry skies would respect him, fear him even.

 

But neither did he wish for anyone to know the true name or nature of his power, the Nine Realms of Heaven.

 

And so, Yu Zi Yu made the real seem false, and the false seem real.

 

He misled the Myriad Races, calling it the Realmbreaker Eye, deliberately sowing confusion…

 

And when they believed they understood this so-called Realmbreaker Eye and thought they had found ways to counter it, that would be the moment Yu Zi Yu unveiled its True Form.

 

Surely, it would be… quite the surprise.

 

Keeping trump cards hidden had always been Yu Zi Yu’s habit.

 

Now, misleading the Myriad Races, this too was a small trickery on Yu Zi Yu’s part.

 

For believing they understand would be the true terror.

 

A coveted being like Yu Zi Yu could never give others a second chance, ever.

 

Which meant one mistake was fatal.

 

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Yu Zi Yu lips, while an unspeakable profundity appeared in his eyes.

 

Of course, knowing that it was not the time for idle thoughts, Yu Zi Yu immediately cast away the distracting thoughts.

 

Following the sound, all the powerful beings in the starry skies looked over, only to witness nine stars spinning and shining amidst the cosmos.

 

They burst forth with boundless might, utterly suppressing the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree.

 

And then, bit by bit, they began to erase it.

 

Indeed, erase.

 

Before their very eyes, the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree’s True Form was disintegrating, vanishing piece by piece until it became nothingness.

 

“What a masterful hand, Your Majesty…” A bitter chuckle escaped the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree, filled with great sorrow.

 

However, no one noticed what happened next.

 

The Divine Tree… severed her own life force. She willingly channeled her remaining strength into Yu Zi Yu’s Nine Realms.

 

After all, both were Divine Tree, and had shared a camaraderie for a long time.

 

Knowing her end was near, the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree used the chaos of the nine stars as cover and quietly offered a portion of her Quintessence as a gift.

 

“You…” Yu Zi Yu’s heart skipped a beat, simply because he could feel a vast power pouring into his Nine Realms, enriching them with unimaginable vitality.

 

“This is my final gift to you…” An ancient and weakened voice echoed in Yu Zi Yu’s mind, shaking him to his core.

 

“You… you didn’t have to go this far…” Yu Zi Yu signed helplessly.

 

“It’s fine,” the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree replied, “My death was written in fate. Rather than letting someone else take the last of my fortune, I’d rather give it to you…”

 

Then she added, in a softer tone, “Remember, after my true death, seize that branch of mine shaped like a True Dragon. That branch holds the majority of my strength. It’s far more precious than my trunk or any other part. If you secretly take it and leave… the Myriad Races will notice nothing. And in their ignorance, they will tear each other apart for my remains…Hahahaha…”

 

A laughter followed. The Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree prided herself in this plan.

 

With Yu Zi Yu’s cooperation, she could outwit the Myriad Races, even in death.

 

As for dying by Yu Zi Yu’s hand? She had no regrets.

 

For she was but a clone, split off from the True Body of the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree. Her existence had always been for the sake of the original.

 

Now, the original was slumbering within one of Yu Zi Yu’s Nine Realms, for her, that was more than enough.

 

Of course… one shouldn’t mistake her generosity as pure goodwill.

 

She owed Yu Zi Yu a great karmic debt for safeguarding her Dharma Avatar.

 

If such a debt were exposed, even Heaven itself would deliver retribution.

 

Even someone as strong as Yu Zi Yu wouldn’t survive the backlash.

 

So now, in her final moments, the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree gave all she could… This was the only repayment she could offer.

 

With a bitter laugh, the Heaven-Connecting Divine Tree channeled her remaining Spiritual Energy and roared in defiance, “Even if I die today… I shall behold the Heaven’s Door one last time!”

 

As soon as these words echoed, boundless light erupted across her form.

 

Her terrifying aura surged higher and higher, so much so that even Yu Zi Yu’s Nine Realms were forced to retreat.
