413: Chapter 413 The Empress Proves the Great Dao

Brilliant moonlight poured down from the Nine Heavens, illuminating the entire world with shimmering light.

But in the next moment, countless living beings across the world looked up together, their expressions suddenly shifting and their brows furrowing tightly as they gazed at the sky.

The moon had changed.

That bright moon, originally as round as a flawless jade plate, seemed to have been savagely bitten by an invisible primeval giant, suddenly becoming tattered and incomplete.

The hazy halo continued to dim, and the power of the moonlight throughout the world became turbulent and unstable.

"The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth has changed!"

"Why... can I no longer sense the trajectories of the Great Dao around me!"

"Order is collapsing, and the Laws are shifting!"

Experts inside and outside the Academy cried out in shock, their faces filled with unbelievable horror.

At this very moment, they clearly sensed that the cultivation Aura circulating within their bodies was mysteriously draining away, and their Dao foundations were becoming slightly unstable.

The higher one's cultivation, the more clear and piercing this sensation was.

The lunar phase is incomplete; the Great Dao is in chaos.

In the center of the sea of lightning, Qin Wushang, who was Undergoing Tribulation, frowned slightly.

It has come.

This sudden upheaval of heaven and earth caught even him somewhat off guard.

According to what Wang Changsheng had said in the past, this was precisely the critical juncture for his Revered Master, Chu Yuehua, to attain the Dao in an unconventional way.

However, his Heavenly Tribulation had not yet ended, and he was uncertain what kind of impact this world-shaking change would have on him.

"Boom!"

Another Dao-Extinguishing Divine Lightning crashed down. Qin Wushang's eyes narrowed, and he instantly perceived the anomaly.

"It's much weaker."

The power of the Heavenly Tribulation was rapidly diminishing, and it continued to weaken.

Meanwhile, the bright moon hanging above the heavens in the distance became increasingly fragmented and dim, as if it were using its own dao rhyme to extract the Divine Might of the Heavenly Dao.

At that moment, above the Nine Heavens, the moonlight suddenly reversed!

In the center of the fragmented lunar disc, a peerless figure slowly coalesced—clothed in white as pure as snow, with a grace that surpassed the age.

She was the Great Chu Empress, Chu Yuehua.

"The Empress! It really is the Empress!"

"She has emerged from seclusion!"

"No wonder there's a moon... rumors say she is the Moon Goddess, possessing the Taiyin Immortal Body... but now that the moon is so dim, could something have gone wrong with her seclusion?"

With the great change in heaven and earth and the dimming of the moon, some experts began to speculate.

Deep within the Great Chu imperial palace, many figures were watching from afar.

Is there really a problem with the Empress's condition?

This was very important to them!

If something had truly gone wrong with the Empress, now that the Immortal Palace had appeared, they would need to choose a new path.

"So that's how it is."

Inside the Great Chu imperial palace, a tall figure stood atop a magnificent hall, whispering as he looked at the moon in the sky.

Beside him, a beautiful woman held his hand.

"My sister did not seek to attain the fruit of Perfection like ordinary Great Emperors; instead, she went against the Heavenly Dao, using herself as a Moon-Mending Stone, enduring ten thousand tribulations to sever her own self."

"Can this succeed?"

Princess Chu Yuelian asked, her brow filled with worry.

She felt this path was too treacherous.

It was ten thousand times more dangerous than merging with the Dao of Great Chu, yet Chu Yuehua insisted on choosing such a path.

"Since ancient times, countless Cultivators have practiced the Dao of the full moon's Perfection, yet she alone does the opposite."

"Starting from the crescent moon, with every breakthrough in realm, she uses her own Dao foundation to fill a fragment of the Heavenly Dao's incompleteness. The lunar phase fills as her cultivation grows, progressing step by step from a crescent to a quarter moon, then a half moon, towards the completion of the stainless full moon."

"It is indeed very dangerous."

"But if she succeeds and completes the heavenly dao moon, then wherever there is moonlight... she will be invincible."

Qin Zhanzhou replied.

No matter which path is taken, there will be dangers; the greater the reward, the higher the risk.

It is a fair trade.

By attaining the Dao now, Chu Yuehua intended to transform herself into the Heavenly Dao Moon Core, taking command of the supreme Law that belonged solely to her.

"When the moon is waning, she is weakened; when the moon is full, she is a Saint."

"If successful, she could strip Cultivators of their Perfection Dao foundations, or bestow Heaven-Defying Opportunities upon those who are incomplete."

"She will be the only Moon Dao Great Emperor in the entire world capable of reversing the path of cultivation and commanding both incompleteness and Perfection."

This scene completely startled the Five Domains and Two Heavens!

Deep in the sky, the Void Realm shattered repeatedly as terrifying Auras spanning eternity descended, locking onto the territory of Great Chu from afar.

Great Scarlet Heaven, Heavenly Venerable Alliance.

A woman with ethereal robes and a cold, proud temperament stood in the air. Her gaze pierced through endless time and space toward the direction of Great Chu, her expression flickering with uncertainty.

"Chu Yuehua... so it was you who protected that Devil Head! Should I take action?"

The Heavenly Venerable murmured to herself, somewhat hesitant.

Southern Barbarian Domain.

The desolate Great Earth shook as the giants of the Barbarian Race rose with the Aura of ten thousand races. Many Yao Race Great Sages hovered in the sky, their roars echoing through the wilderness as they watched with burning eyes.

"Kill, kill, kill! She must be killed!"

"Chu Yuehua has suppressed our Southern Barbarian Yao Race for so long; countless experts of our race have fallen by her hand."

"Now that she wants to attain the Dao, we must take action."

Countless Great Yao moved, mobilizing in full force and pressing toward the Border Wasteland of Great Chu.

Eastern Star Sea Region.

Tens of thousands of acres of blue waves surged as the Sea Yao Royal Clan broke through the water. Experts from various island Holy Lands arrived through the air, their waves and Spiritual Qi intertwining into a formation.

"Cooperate with the Southern Barbarians to hinder Chu Yuehua; she must not be allowed to successfully break through her realm!"

Far North Snow Region.

Thousands of miles of frozen ice cracked as the Snow Race Old Ancestor descended amidst a blizzard. The Holy Lord of the Ice Cloud Holy Palace released a cold Aura that pierced the heavens, freezing half the sky.

"Chu Yuehua... what a legendary woman, to have actually reached this step."

"Taking such a path, just how much confidence do you have?"

The Ice Snow Holy Lord murmured softly.

After thinking for a moment, she set off for the Desolate Heaven Domain.

Red Earth Western Domain.

Buddha's light illuminated the world as the Buddhas of the Ultimate Bliss Pure Land and the high monks of the Bodhi Ancient Temple appeared together.

The sound of chanting echoed, yet it could not hide the shock in their eyes.

"Amitabha!"

"Great Chu has no conflict with us... let us make way for this female benefactor."

An Ancient Buddha spoke, and the other experts withdrew their Auras.

Before long!

Experts from countless top-tier forces gathered outside the borders of Great Chu, their energies intertwining as they grew restless.

The Empress attaining the Dao in such an unconventional way was unprecedented.

The ability she mastered to reverse the path of cultivation was enough to overturn the entire world's structure; everyone wanted to seize the chance to strangle this future supreme expert.

Just as the many powerhouses were watching like tigers eyeing their prey.

Above the territory of Great Chu, an Imperial shadow spanning the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths suddenly descended!

Imperial Might surged, and Great Chu shook, closely linked to the Luck of the entire Empire.

He was Qin Wushang's third uncle, Qin Zhanzhou.

Qin Zhanzhou's gaze swept across the experts outside the border, his indifferent voice turning into a supreme decree that echoed through the Five Domains and Two Heavens.

"The Empress attaining the Dao is a sacred event for my Great Chu."

"Anyone who dares to interfere, regardless of race, domain, or power, shall be executed!"

As he spoke, the terrifying pressure caused the Border Wasteland to tremble.

The experts who wanted to enter the Desolate Heaven Domain couldn't help but change their expressions drastically.

"So this is her path! No wonder she wanted an outsider to merge with the Dao of Great Chu! She was giving herself a life-saving trump card!"

An expert realized and shouted aloud.

With Qin Zhanzhou, the pressure on Chu Yuehua during her unconventional Dao attainment would be greatly reduced.

"Rumble, rumble!"

But at that moment, the Immortal Palace, which had been quiet for some time, moved.
