Chapter 1029: The Women Unite
Within the white life hidden realm, high in the clouds, silver moons transformed into large eyes that seemed to bulge at the sight of countless red-, blue-, and purple-furred monsters emerging out of nowhere. Their combined numbers were far greater than the white-furred ones by many times.
"You wenches—even if you managed to cultivate the three Qings' Yin Bodies, you would never have been able to manufacture these monsters on your own. Did they lend them to you?!" the silver moon thundered.
"Die!" the three women shouted simultaneously.
With a deafening roar, countless red, purple, and blue-furred monsters charged toward the white-furred monsters.
Simultaneously, the three women each brandished their own treasures and joined the fray.
Zhang Lingjun held a red prayer mat that expanded like a heavenly grindstone as she unleashed it. It crushed all white-furred monsters in its path.
Xia Yu'er wielded a purple banner from which streams of purple sword energy shot out like heart swords. They tore through the white-furred monsters.
Lan Yaoguang brandished four blue swords. With a single wave of her arm, the four swords tore through the void and slew everything in their path.
The battle erupted in full force. Armed with the three Qing Grandmasters' treasures, the three women suppressed the strongest of the white-furred monsters.
One of the silver moons shouted, "Golden tree, strengthen them!"
The golden tree discharged overwhelming strength into one of the strongest white-furred monsters, which suddenly became far stronger.
"Strengthen us, nine-colored tree!" the three women shouted.
The giant nine-colored tree infused the three women with energy, causing their strength to swell as well.
They fought the empowered white-furred monster to a standstill as the void burst apart around them. The three women managed to hold the white-furred monster back.
"Damn it," the silver moon cursed. "If the golden tree hadn't been damaged by the three Qings, you would all be done for by now!"
The battle raged on. The silver moon had no intention of giving up so easily. After the strongest white-furred monster was defeated, it immediately selected another to inherit the golden tree's power and continue the fight. At the same time, it summoned white-furred monsters from all corners of the realm, determined to exhaust the three women.
After three days and nights of relentless fighting, however, the silver moon began to panic.
"Just how many monsters did you bring? Why aren't their numbers decreasing?!" the silver moon roared.
The battlefield was littered with mountains of monster corpses. While the red-, blue-, and purple-furred monsters could revive in their respective illusory realms, they couldn't do so in the real world. Once dead, they remained as carcasses.
The dead white-furred monsters, on the other hand, were absorbed by the roots of the giant nine-colored tree and consumed as fertilizer.
By then, the three women had reclaimed a great deal of their respective monster carcasses, but their armies somehow didn't seem to decrease in number.
Countless monsters had died over the past three days of vigorous fighting. The silver moons felt as if they were unable to hold out any longer.
Not only did the three women seem to have an endless supply of monsters, the giant nine-colored tree was growing ever stronger as it consumed the white-furred carcasses.
The three women were advancing at a rapid pace themselves. Not only did the nine-colored tree provide them with increased power, they were absorbing more and more of their respective inheritances as they fought.

If this were to continue, the white-furred monsters would be annihilated.
"Retreat!" the silver moons shouted in panic.
The white-furred monsters began to retreat frantically, but they didn't go far. They stopped some distance away, reluctant to leave but also to engage. The battle came to an abrupt pause. The reason they didn't leave outright was because the silver moons couldn't leave the golden tree undefended or move it away.
If they did so, Xiao Nanfeng could summon the giant nine-colored tree into the Divine Seal of Dazheng and defeat the Superior's avatar once and for all. As long as the golden tree remained nearby, it could suppress Xiao Nanfeng if he were to attempt such a maneuver.
The Superior himself was preparing for a major offensive as he secretly summoned more and more white-furred monsters from across the realm.
The three women didn't rush after the white-furred monsters. The sudden halt in the battle had been predicted by Xiao Nanfeng. They let out a collective sigh of relief and sat down, clearly exhausted from the three days of continuous fighting. Even with the giant nine-colored tree constantly supplying them with energy, they were utterly drained. They began to meditate where they sat—on a large boulder. They all bore several injuries, but their gazes toward each other had softened after fighting side-by-side for so long.
Zhang Lingjun began, "Xia Yu'er, thank you for blocking that blow for me earlier."
Xia Yu'er shook her head. "You should thank Lady Yaoguang instead. Her four swords were crucial to our victory."
Lan Yaoguang dipped her head modestly. "But without Zhang Lingjun's praying mat guarding me, I wouldn't have been able to use that technique to its full power."
The three women smiled at each other as they focused on recuperating.
The giant nine-colored tree, meanwhile, also consolidated its gains. As it devoured more and more of the white-furred monsters, it was steadily growing more solid. Thick, lined bark covered its trunk in a tangible fashion as it synchronized with the material world.
The three women hadn't sustained severe injuries and were soon able to recover. Their cultivation had improved greatly during the fight.
Xia Yu'er frowned. "What should we do if the white-furred lifeforms remain grouped up and refuse to fight us?"
Zhang Lingjun took a deep breath. "Nanfeng said that he wanted us to slaughter them as much as possible to bolster the nine-colored tree's strength. Even if they don't fight, we'll massacre them and finish them all off."
"Very well," the other two women replied.
They each retrieved the orbs of light that the three Qing Grandmasters had given them and released more of the red-, blue-, and purple-furred monsters into the battlefield.
Meanwhile, back in Yongding, Madam Rouge, the Divine Emperor, and Liu Miaoyin had convened a meeting with the most important Dazheng officials.
Ye Sanshui asked in worry, "Immortal Emperors, is His Majesty alright?"
The three women glanced at each other before ultimately divulging what had happened to the gathered officials.
The Dazheng officials' eyes widened. His Majesty was in grave danger!
Ye Dafu stepped forward. "I believe in His Majesty. I'm sure he'll return unharmed!"
Wen Zhong nodded. "Indeed. The stability of Dazheng's sea of fortune indicates that His Majesty remains unharmed."
Even so, many of the officials seemed worried.
Liu Miaoyin suddenly spoke up. "I'd like to make a suggestion. I would appreciate everyone's cooperation."
"Oh?" Madam Rouge, the Divine Emperor, and everyone else eyed Liu Miaoyin in anticipation.
"Please go ahead, Empress Liu," the Dazheng officials began.
Everyone was curious about just what Liu Miaoyin had planned. They all knew that she trusted Xiao Nanfeng unconditionally and had even allowed him to take charge of Dajing's governance. The fact that she was speaking up now meant that she surely had something monumental to share.
Liu Miaoyin took a deep breath. "Though my husband is in grave danger, we should believe in him and his strength. During this crisis, I hope that we can nevertheless help further his ambitions."
Madam Rouge frowned. "What do you mean?"
She was deeply worried and irritated as a result. The only reason she was listening attentively was because the speaker was Liu Miaoyin.
The Divine Emperor was much the same way. She was glancing curiously at Liu Miaoyin.
Liu Miaoyin took a deep breath. "From the very beginning, I've firmly believed that my husband can save the world. While he's currently trapped in a hidden realm, I'm certain he'll be able to break out. Of course, I'm sure some of you may doubt me, but my belief is firm."
"You're right, Empress Liu!" the Dazheng officials shouted.
Madam Rouge and the Divine Emperor nodded as well.
Liu Miaoyin continued, "While my husband fights, I hope we can help shoulder some of his burdens."
Madam Rouge frowned again. "What do you mean?"
"The Immortal Emperor of Daru and other supreme cultivators have been killed by the Superior. Their deaths do not upset me—they were greedy and tried multiple times to steal his treasures and opportunities. If left unchecked, they would ultimately have brought great ills on the world. They jealously guarded their divine empires and prevented the world from unifying as one, believing that they would be able to pressure my husband to secure his cooperation during a time of crisis. In doing so, they have gone against the whole world's interests and our need for mutual cooperation. Their deaths may yet have a silver lining. Their followers are now easy to take down."
Madam Rouge's eyes widened. "You intend to take this opportunity to unify the world?"
Liu Miaoyin nodded. "The Dazheng Alliance now controls roughly 70% of the world. This is an exceptional opportunity. We ought to remove the rabble that stands in the way for his ascension to Heavenly Emperor."
The Dazheng officials' eyes lit up.
Madam Rouge and the Divine Emperor eyed Liu Miaoyin in shock. They had considered the idea as well, but had been so worried about Xiao Nanfeng that they couldn't entertain the notion. However, Liu Miaoyin had dispelled their worries.
The Divine Emperor nodded. "There's no reason to mope and worry when there's so much we can do for our husband."
Madam Rouge nodded as well. "Agreed."
Liu Miaoyin turned to the gathered Dazheng officials. "Everyone, can we count on your help?"
The officials eyed each other. In the end, Wen Zhong spoke up as their representative. "While His Majesty has given us no official orders, we will obey Your Majesties in this time of crisis. Please guide us, Your Majesties!"
"Please guide us, Your Majesties!" the officials echoed.
Liu Miaoyin began, "In that case, let us work out a plan to unify the world. I, Madam Rouge, and the Divine Emperor will enact this plan together."
"Understood!" the Dazheng officials shouted as one.
Two days later, the Dazheng Alliance sent out large numbers of emissaries and messengers toward the remaining forces around the world to seek their surrender.
Ye Sanshui, Ye Dafu, Yan Zhenhuo, and other major generals began preparing to invade any recalcitrant forces that refused to give in.
War broke out across the four continents, but Dazheng's growing might meant that what little resistance remained was futile.
Liu Miaoyin, Madam Rouge, and the Divine Emperor issued order after imperial order. In the meantime, they shared what insights they had on their respective branches of the world tree. Little by little, they dropped their guard around each other and developed an unexpected friendship.
