These creatures, as if driven mad, kept worshipping the large, semi-transparent, green crystal-like tree in the center.

Not until some people had drained every drop of blood from their bodies and lay down in the blood pool did this worship end.

Baiyu also saw inside the city.

There were countless bizarre altered beings.

Some had human bodies, but their heads were covered with snake heads.

Some had entire heads that were a giant mouth, with the inner cavity of the mouth filled with a dense array of eyes.

Baiyu also sensed the combat power of the Eclipse Moon Realm within the city, and there wasn't just one. It was unknown whether these Eclipse Moon beings had discovered them.

"Let's go. The situation here is beyond our handling. Let's return to the bookstore and report to the higher-ups."

Baiyu made a decisive decision.

If they remained, once their presence was discovered, it would probably be troublesome to leave.

Xiao Qing was very agreeable to this decision. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

If the two of them continued to delve deeper, they would likely be doomed. It was better to leave as soon as possible and return to the bookstore to call for reinforcements.

Having made up their minds.

The two did not hesitate, retreating instantly, without caring what these things really were.

The strangeness of this place was already beyond their imagination.

However.

Although the two wanted to leave, someone in the city had already noticed them and wanted to keep them there.

A dull bell sound rang out.

Around Baiyu and Xiao Qing, countless decaying monsters crawled out of the ground. These monsters didn't attack as they emerged but were transported by a strange force in front of the two, exploding instantaneously.

Boom!

A deafening explosion sounded.

The two were instantly hit as if by a series of missiles, with the aura emitted by Xiao Qing's bracelet shattering from the impact.

The power of the corpse explosions was unimaginably great.

The shield formed by the Power of Destruction around Baiyu did not shatter but was on the verge of collapsing. A Deep Diver flew into the sky, its two big eyes glaring forward like bells: "Today, you won't escape..."

The Deep Diver chased out of the castle, summoning, with a wave of its hand, numerous blades and swords formed by the water in the air, showering down on the two like rain.

Within Baiyu's arms, the Power of Destruction and the Power of Golden Blood gathered, rushing up to his left and right hands. He clenched his fists and collided them against his chest.

Boom!

The light of destruction surged out from Baiyu's chest, vaporizing all the blades and swords in the air.

"Xiao Qing, you leave first."

Baiyu advanced instead of retreating, charging at the Deep Diver, whose neck had a ring of red marks, extremely apparent, evidently marking it as royalty among the Deep Divers.

The opponent's strength confirmed this.

Xiao Qing knew that staying would only be a burden since she wasn't a combatant. Insisting on staying could distract Baiyu, forcing him to protect her.

A strong individual at the Eclipse Moon Realm.

If he wanted to escape, he usually wouldn't be caught unless someone at the Sun Realm intervened. However, in the entire Canglan Star, those at the Sun Realm were rare.

Among those foreign races, there was no chance of possessing a strong individual at the Sun Realm.

The Deep Diver did not stop Xiao Qing's departure, feeling a great threat from Baiyu, not daring to be distracted.

After Xiao Qing left, black gas suddenly surged from behind Baiyu.

This black gas erupted like a tide, instantly turning the surroundings into a black space. The Deep Diver hadn't anticipated Baiyu having such a strange skill and remained still upon entering the black space.

He could feel the darkness around him constantly absorbing his strength.

The longer he stayed.

The weaker his strength grew.

But he realized that breaking this space was nearly impossible.

In front of him.

Baiyu had completely transformed into a golden color, his whole body shimmering, his skin as if cast in gold, giving an indestructible feeling.

"Among the Deep Divers, you should also be a powerful figure, right? If you truthfully tell me what you know now, I might spare your life."

Baiyu tried to persuade him with a trial-and-error approach.

Of course, the negotiation quickly ended in failure.

The Deep Diver wielded the water, transforming it into a monstrous wave, crashing towards Baiyu.

However.

Baiyu shook his body, shattering the water with his golden power, but within the water, countless ice shards shot out, each as sharp as a razor, instantly slicing through Baiyu's Protective Gang Qi.

Yet this was his limit.

In this Death Struggle Realm, there was no chance to flash or retreat. After Baiyu got close, he punched the Deep Diver, shattering the water shield around him, followed by another punch through the Deep Diver's chest.

After undergoing Golden Transformation.

Apart from possessing extremely high defense and resistance to attacks, Baiyu's strength also became immensely powerful. The Deep Diver's physical body was not its strong suit, so being punched by Baiyu at close range nearly took its life.

There were differences among the Eclipse Moon Realm.

And.

The differences were vast.

After taking this punch, the Deep Diver's eyes widened, contemplating retreat. This kind of close combat was not his strong suit, but clearly, the opponent excelled at it. Continuing to struggle would inevitably lead to death here.

The Deep Diver, realizing this, didn't hesitate.

With its mouth agape, a green seed was extruded from beneath its lizard-like tongue.

When Baiyu saw this seed, a familiar feeling washed over him instantly. It was the Green Mother's tree seed!

The opponent bit the tree seed open.

Filthy green light spread, and Baiyu's otherwise unstoppable Black Moon Death Struggle was unexpectedly broken by the Green Mother's tree seed.

Baiyu's Black Moon Death Struggle derived from the Black Moon.

The Green Mother's tree seed, on the other hand, contained the Green Mother's power.

Only gods could contend with gods.

Black Moon Death Struggle being broken by the Green Mother's power was reasonable, just that it happened so suddenly it caught Baiyu off guard.

After the Deep Diver went out.

Without a target, the Black Moon Death Struggle naturally dissipated.

Baiyu exited the Death Struggle Realm, not thinking twice, gathering the Power of Destruction all over his body. A giant black silhouette appeared behind him, towering like a giant in the sky, punching down on the castle ahead.

A tremendous cracking sound boomed from behind.

Baiyu didn't stay any longer, hurriedly moving towards the Spirit Realm passage. After reaching the passage, he immediately sealed it with the Power of Destruction.

Once this passage was sealed.

Breaching it from inside was extremely difficult, and these foreign races and demons would need a tremendous effort to break through.

Xiao Qing was already at the exit of the passage, and upon seeing Baiyu emerge, she immediately asked nervously, "How are things inside?"

"It's dire. There are at least two Eclipse Moon Realm beings, and the green gemstone tree in the center must be a form of the Green Mother."

Baiyu guessed based on the tree seed the Deep Diver took out.

Upon hearing the term Green Mother, Xiao Qing's face turned even grimmer: "Evil God invasion? It seems the spiritual essence is going to disappear; these Evil Gods can't hold back anymore. We must return immediately."
