Chapter 942: Immortal Emperor Surrenders
The tricolor light of the laws swirling around Yun Yao stained the sky of the Origin Divine Realm with a magnificent aura. Twelve pairs of battle wings unfurled behind Chu Mochen, each feather gleaming with divine brilliance. The three Immortal Emperors were forced to kneel on one knee by this overwhelming pressure. The shattered fragments of their magical weapons fell like meteors, creating a bottomless pit in the ground.
"Impossible..." The Great Luo Immortal Emperor's voice was filled with an undisguised tremor. He looked at the Law of Willpower wrapped around Yun Yao's fingertips, his pupils shrinking violently. "How can you, a newly promoted Heavenly Dao, control Hongmeng, the Void, and Willpower at the same time? This goes against the laws that have existed in the God Realm for a hundred thousand years!"
Yun Yao didn't answer, but slowly raised the Heavenly Dao Compass. Countless golden runes emerged on its surface. These runes were the "Way of Defying Fate" she had comprehended through countless reincarnations. When the runes landed on the core of the Origin Divine Realm, the entire space began to distort. The previously raging Heavenly Dao laws receded like a tide, revealing the countless cultivators struggling beneath.
"Look," Yun Yao's voice was clear yet carried an undeniable power. She raised her hand and pointed, shackles shattering from the cultivators oppressed by the laws. "The so-called Heavenly Dao shouldn't be chains that imprison living beings. My father spent his entire life trying to balance Primordial Chaos and Nothingness, but he was always trapped in a black-and-white equation." She paused, her gaze sweeping across the three Immortal Emperors. "And you, who will do anything to secure the Purple Qi, have you ever considered that the ants you trample upon also have the right to pursue the Great Dao?"
Before he finished speaking, Chu Mochen suddenly groaned. Yun Yao's heart tightened, and she turned to see that the golden wings behind him had begun to dim. The remaining power of the Void Heavenly Dao flowed through his meridians like a venomous snake, leaving black lines on his pale skin.
"Lord God of War!" a cultivator from the Lan Realm exclaimed. Yun Yao immediately injected her willpower into Chu Mochen, but with little effect. At this moment, the Daluo Immortal Emperor suddenly leaped up, condensing a dark purple beam in his hand and striking Yun Yao in the back.
"Be careful!" Liu Yan'er's voice came from afar. In the nick of time, the three-color laws surrounding Yun Yao automatically condensed into a shield, deflecting the attack. The Daluo Immortal Emperor was unable to dodge and was struck by his own power, falling to the ground in dismay.
"Sure enough..." The Daluo Immortal Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a trace of madness flashed in his eyes, "You are still being restrained by the power of the Void Heavenly Dao! As long as the God of War dies, you will be unable to hold on alone!" As soon as he finished speaking, the other two Immortal Emperors also attacked at the same time. The power of the three people intertwined in the air to form a large net of laws, trapping Yun Yao and Chu Mochen in the center.
Yun Yao clenched her fists, the primordial purple energy within her body beginning to boil. She could sense that every time she used the Law, the remaining "causal seeds" of the Void Heavenly Dao would further erode Chu Mochen's power. At this moment, her father's voice suddenly echoed through her sea of consciousness: "Yao'er, remember the light cocoon you saw in the Primordial Secret Realm? In every reincarnation, you repeat the same mistake—trying to solve everything with force."
These words split the fog like a bolt of lightning. Yun Yao suddenly closed her eyes, abandoning any energies of the Laws. Just as the Daluo Immortal Emperor's attack was about to reach her, an incredible scene occurred: the cultivators of the Origin Divine Realm spontaneously formed a barrier of faith, completely blocking the attack.
"This... How is this possible?" an Immortal Emperor stared down in shock. The cultivators they had once dismissed as mere ants now had a resolute light in their eyes. The power of their faith converged into a long golden river, pouring into Yun Yao's body.
When Yun Yao opened her eyes again, they were ablaze with pure gold. She raised her hand and waved it gently, shattering the web of laws that had trapped them like thin ice. Even more shocking, the black lines on Chu Mochen's body began to fade, and the battle wings behind him glowed once more.
"You are wrong." Yun Yao's voice seemed to come from between heaven and earth. "True power is never about control and suppression." A lotus flower formed from the power of will appeared in her palm. With a gentle breeze, the petals floated towards the three Immortal Emperors. "Look into your hearts, into your eyes blinded by desire, can you still see the original intention of pursuing the Great Dao?"
The moment the Great Luo Immortal Emperor touched the petals, he suddenly roared in pain. Memories flooded back: Thousands of years ago, he was just a mortal. Witnessing his loved ones crushed by the laws of heaven, he was driven to strive for strength, determined to change everything. However, in his pursuit of power, he gradually became the person he hated the most.
"I...what have I done..." The Great Immortal Emperor fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face. The other two Immortal Emperors, influenced by the petals, fell into a deep state of self-examination. The entire Origin Divine Realm fell into a dead silence, only the long river of faith continued to flow.
At this moment, a rainbow of light suddenly descended from the sky. Yun Yao's father, the Lord of Heaven, and her mother, the Holy Mother of Primordial Earth, appeared. Though their auras were weak, their eyes were filled with joy.
"Yao'er, you finally understand." The Lord of Heaven spoke with relief. "When I banished you to the mortal world, it was in the hope that through your struggles at the lowest level, you would comprehend the true meaning of 'Tao'." He looked at the three Immortal Emperors. "Are you three willing to let go of your obsessions and follow my son in rebuilding order in the divine realm?"
The Daluo Immortal Emperor was silent for a moment, and suddenly took off the crown that symbolized his identity as an Immortal Emperor, and kowtowed three times: "Lord Yun Yao, we are willing to serve the Lan Realm as our master, and we only ask that you can bring true peace to the God Realm." Seeing this, the other two Immortal Emperors also bowed and surrendered.
Yun Yao stared at the scene before her, a chorus of emotions welling up within her. She recalled the bullying she'd endured in the palace during her first time traveling through time; the moments of her encounter and friendship with Chu Mochen; and the intertwined moments of despair and hope throughout her countless reincarnations. It seemed all the suffering and struggle had been for this moment of enlightenment.
"Get up." Yun Yao raised her hand to support him. "From today on, there will no longer be any distinction between high and low in the Three Thousand God Realms. Everyone can freely choose their own path, and Chu Mochen and I will be your guardians in your pursuit of the great way."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light erupted from the core of the Origin Divine Realm. Yun Yao's Heavenly Dao Compass and Chu Mochen's sword simultaneously soared high into the sky, interweaving in the air to form a vast Law Formation. Within this formation, the primordial purple energy and the ethereal chaos finally reached a perfect balance. Willpower fell like a drizzle, nourishing this vicissitudes of life Divine Realm.
"This is the true way of heaven," said the Grandmother of Hongmeng with satisfaction. "It's not about control, but protection; it's not about suppression, but tolerance." She looked at her daughter, her eyes full of pride. "Yao'er, you've accomplished what none of us have been able to accomplish in our entire lives."
Yun Yao turned and smiled at Chu Mochen. In his eyes, she saw a love that had remained unchanged through countless reincarnations. All the betrayals and misunderstandings, all the pain and struggle, now became the foundation of eternity. They held hands and welcomed a new era that belonged to them.
For the first time, the sky above the Origin God Realm was covered with colorful auspicious clouds, a symbol of peace. And the story of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen would become the most moving legend in the God Realm, passed down forever.
