At the same time, in the Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror.
When Chang’e appeared beside the charred laurel tree, the moon within the secret realm also trembled.
Despite the constraints of the Beidou Seven Stars Array, a massive chasm inevitably appeared on the moon’s surface.
Just as the chasm was about to evolve into a fissure dividing the moon in two, a golden halo suddenly unfolded in the sky above the moon.
Li Boyang leisurely stepped out from the halo, and the moon’s turmoil immediately subsided.
If anyone were to witness this scene, they could even perceive a human-like fear from the moon’s changes.
Fortunately, Li Boyang had no malicious intent; instead, he once again expanded the Qiankun Ring.
"Alright, I know you’re scared."
"Though you are reborn from the laurel, you still bear the fierce Qi of that Celestial Emperor."
"The Celestial Emperor wishes to merge the way of the sun and moon to reshape Yin and Yang, altering his fate of death."
"If you go out now, you’ll only become a point of anchorage for him to break the long river of history, using it to walk through this era as his avatar."
On the other side of the Qiankun Ring, the trembling Three-legged Golden Toad obediently lowered its head.
Over time, the Three-legged Golden Toad has realized the gap between itself and Li Boyang.
Similarly, with its innate godly wisdom, the Three-legged Golden Toad understood one fact - if Li Boyang wanted to kill it, he wouldn’t need to go through such trouble.
The Beidou Seven Stars Array he laid down is both a restraint and a form of protection.
As long as it remains within this [Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror], the existence of the Three-legged Golden Toad temporarily transcends the river of time.
Being situated ten thousand years ago, the Celestial Emperor naturally cannot use it as an anchor point to forcibly descend into this era.
"Gwa!"
Thinking of this, the Three-legged Golden Toad let out a submissive cry.
Even though it’s reborn from the laurel and infected by the Celestial Emperor’s Evil Qi, the Three-legged Golden Toad can still sense goodwill.
Under the premise of establishing authority through force, the benevolence Li Boyang exhibited undoubtedly received a hundred percent response from the Three-legged Golden Toad.
Judging by its currently docile behavior, it’s hard to imagine it engaged in a fierce battle with Xiluo at its birth.
"Gwa!"
Perhaps to express its goodwill...
Or perhaps simply fearing that Li Boyang would throw it out...
After a brief hesitation, the Three-legged Gold Toad spat out the golden copper coin it had kept in its mouth.
The golden copper coin passed perfectly through the Qiankun Ring, falling into Li Boyang’s palm.
"Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person you think I am."
Seeing this, Li Boyang was initially stunned, then chuckled with interest.
The behavior of the Three-legged Golden Toad was enough to prove to Li Boyang that this laurel-reborn evil god indeed had the potential to be tamed.
"The thing you’re worried about will be resolved by someone soon."
In the worried and confused expression of the Three-legged Golden Toad, the Celestial Eye on Li Boyang’s brow slowly opened.
The next second, the strong causal power crossing timelines reappeared, except this time, someone was drawn from one space-time to another.
First, it went to the time of Li Jingshu and Lord Tingyao ten thousand years ago.
Conversing with Heng’e, they suddenly saw a flicker before their bodies once again turned into shadows.
Witnessing this, Heng’e’s eyes widened in slight surprise, then she suddenly laughed as if she had realized something.
"So you’re from his era!"
"I think I know what I should do next."
A similar situation unfolded simultaneously for Li Xudou and Lady Zhui in the branch timeline.
With previous experiences, Li Xudou seemed calm this time and even had the mind to turn back and glance at Lady Zhui next to him.
Only after confirming that a similar situation appeared on her body, did he smile knowingly.
Because he knew that this time, it must be his master taking action.
——Celestial Gang Thirty-Six Divine Power • Returning to Heaven and Returning to the Sun!
...........................
Boom!
When Li Xudou and Lady Zhui returned to the main timeline, the first thing they saw was the rapidly collapsing fissure.
Centered around the charred laurel tree, one-tenth of the Taiyin Star’s surface quickly collapsed, forming a massive hole visible to the naked eye.
As that hole continued to cave in, threatening to fracture the entire Taiyin Star.
A pure white silver radiance suddenly emerged from the Guanghan Palace, swiftly covering the collapsing region.
"Heng’e!?"
With a shout of exclamation, the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow in Li Xudou’s hand began to tremble violently.
Following that, Chang’e’s silhouette rapidly flew out, confronting the chasm.
Swirl... Swirl... Swirl...
Nearly infinite Taiyin Essence Qi converged, and a colder Guanghan Qi was generated.
By the time everyone reacted, strands of flying ribbons crashed down, appearing delicate yet carrying immense force.
As for Chang’e, she remained aloft, her expression unwavering.
Looking at such an unfamiliar Chang’e, Dayi within the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow fell silent.
At this moment, in Dayi’s mind, Li Xudou’s previous words echoed - is she truly Heng’e?
Or more precisely, did he really know his wife?
Whether it was her sudden appearance or her final mysterious disappearance, both were full of questions.
No, even why he resurrected in this era was a question shrouded in doubt.
Regrettably, the current Dayi is not the real Dayi.
He is merely a remnant of thought within the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow, his memory forever frozen at the moment of shooting through the Great Golden Crow.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Unaware of Li Xudou and the others’ presence.
Just see Chang’e overlooking from high above, more ribbons extend from behind her.
Under relentless attacks, a white hollow ring finally emerged deep within the chasm.
Despite being a white hollow ring, it dodged the ribbons’ attacks like a living creature, each move exuding astonishing spiritual power.
Whether intentionally or inadvertently, that white hollow ring shielded the Laurel Divine Tree behind it.
Occasionally facing unavoidable attacks, it even opted to endure the assaults with its body rather than let the ribbons touch the Laurel Divine Tree.
Witnessing this, Chang’e frowned slightly but couldn’t bear to destroy the last thing her mother left behind.
Thus, the battle entered a bizarre stalemate.
Both sides knew the Laurel Divine Tree’s importance, yet they unanimously refrained from allowing it to suffer damage.
"That’s You Ying!"
At this moment, Li Xudou, who also saw the crux, murmured softly.
"My master once mentioned to me, You Ying is the Innate God transformed from Taiyin, a candidate for ’Moon God’!"
