War God Charles brings the injured Chu Tianyou and Zhao Mingsheng to Lin Yi, who heals them. The senior brothers reveal that the parallel Blue Star's Antebellum Canyon is being scorched by an evil god named Moloch, who emerged after Lin Yi cleared the darkness. Lin Yi resolves to intervene, brings Xiyue along, and with Charles's help, they travel to the parallel world where they find the once-prosperous city engulfed in flames.

The horrific spectacle wrung Xiyue’s heart. She could not fathom the sheer number of Parallel Blue Star inhabitants' corpses buried here. Nor did she know if the valiant warriors who once stood guard with her at Antebellum Canyon had turned to ash amidst the desolate ruins. Lin Yi, however, remained quiet, meticulously observing every detail before him. The Truth Law, without conscious direction, flowed through him, absorbing every detail on the scene. Through the dancing flames, Lin Yi faintly perceived divine power, solidifying the information provided by Chu Tianyou and his companion: the minotaur-like monstrous entity was indeed a god. Considering the might of Parallel Blue Star, confronting a deity was undeniably a taxing endeavor, as its power was comparable to Blue Star before the planetary will’s enhancement. "Dragon God War God, War God Xiyue, that monster, Moloch, is already advancing towards the central regions of Parallel Blue Star. We..." Such gods, driven solely by destruction, possess minds consumed by slaughter. Their actions serve no purpose other than annihilation. Should it not be halted swiftly, it might indeed reach the Xia realm of Parallel Blue Star. Before Charles could complete his statement, a pair of jet engines materialized behind Xiyue. After adjusting her gravity to near-zero, the engines roared to their full capacity, transforming Xiyue into a streak of light that traversed dozens of miles in mere moments. Witnessing Charles's stunned reaction, Lin Yi offered a smile and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I will provide you with coordinates. Teleport there immediately. Xiyue's uncommon excitement warrants indulgence." As he spoke, a spatial rift opened. Lin Yi and Charles stepped through, vanishing from the location. Parallel Blue Star, within the Parallel Maoxiong Country. A land frozen in time, its expanse a tapestry of endless white snow. Yet, today, the Parallel Maoxiong Country no longer reflects its former serene, snow-covered visage. Towering, fiery monstrosities rampage through Maoxiong Country's central city, where the ice and snow melt instantaneously, giving way to the roaring inferno of flames. Countless civilians, caught in the onslaught, are utterly consumed by the fire before they can even utter a cry. Upon detecting the enemy’s intrusion, the high command of Maoxiong Country promptly dispatched ten formidable warriors at the War God level to engage the threat. For the warriors of this realm, encountering diverse monstrous forms due to the influence of Descent Abyss power is commonplace. Thus, upon their initial sighting of Moloch, the War Gods of Maoxiong Country did not treat him with significant concern. They were so casual that they decided who would engage first through a game of rock-paper-scissors to claim military merit. Notably, four burly warrior-class professionals, radiating arrogance, neglected to establish any defensive measures, boldly engaging in rock-paper-scissors directly before Moloch. Moloch had remained silent since his arrival in Maoxiong Country, only letting out continuous roars, which gave the impression of a simpleton to the War Gods of Parallel Maoxiong Country—an understandable misjudgment. However, adopting such a haughty posture without fully grasping the enemy’s capabilities, is it not a display of excessive confidence? Indeed, just as the four War Gods of Parallel Maoxiong Country were preparing to act, the flame-wreathed monster had already lunged before them, its claw slashing forward. *Rustle, rustle...* Four heads detached, rolling in different directions across the snow-covered ground. Approximately two seconds later, four robust, headless torsos, enveloped in terrifying flames, crashed onto the snowy terrain. "Foolish mortals, how dare you exhibit such arrogance before me?" Having uttered these words, Moloch's nostrils twitched as he greedily inhaled the surrounding air. From the places where the bodies of the four War Gods had turned to ash under the intense blaze, a faint, almost imperceptible blue halo ascended. As this blue luminescence entered Moloch’s being, the creature’s visage contorted in extreme pleasure, and its flaming form seemed to solidify slightly. Utilizing divine-infused flames to instantly obliterate the professionals of Parallel Maoxiong Country, shattering their Lifebound Law, bringing about their utter demise, and absorbing the Power of their Soul Origin. This flawless execution was undeniably brutal. The remaining War Gods of Maoxiong Country were, as expected, utterly dumbfounded. Warrior-class professionals are renowned for their formidable offensive and defensive capabilities. The four slain War God warriors represented the pinnacle of strength in Parallel Maoxiong Country. To be dispatched so effortlessly? Did this not imply an unseen blade poised to sever the throats of the remaining six War Gods? Much like the past Blue Star, achieving the War God level granted dominion over the planet. Parallel Blue Star was no exception. After attaining the status of a War God, who could resist walking with an air of pride? The sheer shock stemming from the massacre of four individuals with a single claw strike was astonishingly immense, shattering the pride of the remaining six War Gods and engulfing them in profound fear. Those lacking resolve did not capture Moloch's interest.

With an indifferent gaze and a sway of his mighty tail, he turned with practiced grace, his intention to instantly decapitate the six and absorb their Power of the Soul Origin to hasten the restoration of his former strength. Unexpectedly, however. The very moment he pivoted, a formidable human cultivator materialized directly behind him. Concurrently, a barrier of pure energy, far surpassing any Supreme Law, sprang into existence before the six bewildered War Gods, effectively repelling Moloch’s tail strike. Even in his incorporeal soul state, Moloch felt a piercing agony. The woman, whose attire differed subtly from that of the professionals from Maoxiong Country, had managed to block his assault so robustly. Who could this individual be! Bang! Bang bang! Several colossal, metallic beings of varying dimensions and designs descended, impacting the soil of Maoxiong Country and encircling Xiyue. The immense commotion also jolted the terror-stricken War Gods of Maoxiong Country back to awareness. The Parallel Blue Star, much like the nascent Blue Star, harbored nations with intricate interrelationships, presenting a facade of unity while secretly engaged in clandestine machinations. Every nation grasped the strategic imperative of thoroughly understanding their adversaries to secure triumph. Consequently, while bolstering their own might, they meticulously monitored the prowess of cultivators from other countries. Xiyue, long confined within Antebellum Canyon, consequently appeared in no national records. Even if the six professionals from Maoxiong Country could discern Xiyue’s origin from Xia based on her attire, they possessed no corresponding information in their databases and found it perplexing why a cultivator from Xia, given the prevailing animosity between their nations, would choose to act virtuously in this situation. "Hehe, young lady, you possess a certain talent. Do you wish to challenge this deity?" Moloch inquired with a peculiar smirk.
