Simhika's beautiful eyes were vacant, her expression dazed, a look of hesitation on her face.

"Don't forget about Danba!"

"You still have Danba to take care of, and besides, Rahu is a master of Maya illusions. No one can find him in this chaotic battle."

"Let's go!"

Vipralambha analyzed.

Hearing this, Simhika snapped out of her daze and looked at her husband helplessly, pursing her pink lips as she slowly nodded.

After all, she wasn't just a mother.

"I hope Rahu is alright!"

Simhika murmured.

The two gradually disappeared into the Asura army, beginning their retreat with the crowd.

"We won!"

"We won!"

The voices of numerous Gandharvas echoed through the Ocean of Milk, shaking the heavens.

Joyful laughter and dancing also erupted within the Ocean of Milk.

Among these Gandharvas, one clad in golden armor, also a 'Gandharva,' raised his divine weapon high and shouted along, but a flicker of cunning and triumph flashed in his eyes.

"Stupid Gandharvas!"

"It seems they haven't seen through my Rahu's Maya power. All I need to do now is follow them back, and I can use illusions to drink the Amrita!"

"I will be the first Asura to drink the Amrita, and the King of the Earth Realm will belong to me then!"

"Everyone says the Danava King [Prahlad] is exceptionally wise, but it seems he's far inferior to me!"

Rahu felt a surge of delight, excitedly swaying his shoulders.

Compared to those foolish Asuras who only knew brute force, he understood how to use his intellect better.

Amidst the cheers of the many Gandharvas.

The wild boar Varaha's actions did not cease. He waded through the Ocean of Milk, approached the divine tortoise Kurma, and clasped his hands together forcefully, then scooped up the Mandara Mountain.

Whoosh!

Kurma transformed into a golden light and flew towards the distant sky.

Deep within the Ocean of Milk, the Thousand-headed Serpent King Shesha, with its countless heads slightly swaying and flicking its forked tongues, already understood what the incarnation of the Supreme Lord was about to do.

As the pillar of the three realms, the Mandara Mountain was located at the center of the three realms, piercing through the heavenly, human, and earthly realms.

This great mountain had to be returned to its rightful place!

Held in Varaha's embrace, the Mandara Mountain was pulled from Kurma's back. It trampled upon the Ocean of Milk, then looked up, piercing straight into the void above.

Rumble!

A terrifying tremor occurred throughout the three realms.

The Mandara Mountain traversed countless layers of space, piercing through the earthly, human, and heavenly realms, returning to its central position.

"Praise to the Supreme Lord Vishnu!"

Varaha smiled slightly, revealing his tusks, and clasped his hands together, disappearing in a flash of golden light.

"This is finally over!"

Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, had a face as radiant as the moon, her cheeks slightly flushed, with a smile as warm as the sun.

She held Vishnu's hand, her face full of smiles.

Vishnu blinked.

"There's actually still a bit more, but I believe the Devraj and the others will handle it."

Vishnu met Lakshmi's gaze, slowly raising one hand, a light emanating from his palm.

Shine!

Where the light shone, a clear and pure space spread out.

Within the space, clouds surged, melodious music echoed, auspicious colors of dawn filled the sky, rippling joyfully, blossoms bloomed within, and a thousand golden gates stood tall, dazzling and brilliant, leading directly to a beautiful palace.

"How beautiful!"

"What is this place?"

Lakshmi covered her cherry lips, exclaiming in surprise.

"Vaikuntha! I call it Vaikuntha!"

"This is a gift for our return!"

Vishnu smiled warmly, pulling the goddess of wealth towards the palace.

Vaikuntha was filled with peace!

However, the mortal realm was shaking violently.

The giant Mandara Mountain instantly pierced through the mortal realm, appearing at its center.

"Mandara Mountain has returned to its place?!"

Indra thought.

Mandara Mountain had returned to its original position, but the earth, which had served as the battlefield during the great war, was still shattered. The land was cracked into countless pieces, becoming pitted and uneven. Countless trees and beasts were trampled and affected.

Endless seawater began to inundate the land.

Earth Goddess Shemi tilted her head slightly, her beautiful face filled with worry.

She clasped her hands together, pressing them against her ample chest, her dark eyes looking pleadingly at Indra.

"Devraj, I implore you to use your divine power to restore the earth!"

Earth Goddess Shemi said.

Indra stood in the air, one hand on his hip, and waved his other hand with a relaxed expression. "Don't worry, the Supreme Lord will handle all of this!"

Since Vishnu had already sent an avatar to deal with Golden-Eyed, surely he would clean up the remaining mess!

Shemi nodded repeatedly.

The two of them joined the other gods.

At this moment, Vayu, the Wind God, returned to the mortal realm riding his wind-horse divine chariot, rushing before the gods and exclaiming loudly.

"The wild boar Varaha left after returning Mandara Mountain to its place, and we don't know where he went now!"

Vayu said.

"Huh, he's gone?"

Indra was slightly surprised.

This wild boar ran off after fighting Golden-Eyed. Wouldn't they be the ones left to clean up the mess in the mortal realm?

"Have you prayed to the Supreme Lord just now?!"

Indra asked.

Surya, the Sun God, frowned slightly.

"I just performed a prayer and praise, but the Supreme Lord did not respond to me!"

Surya said.

Upon hearing this, Indra found it somewhat strange.

What were the guardian deities doing!

Why weren't they maintaining the world and restoring the earth now? How could they suddenly be out of contact!

Could he be engrossed in cuddling with his wife?

Indra glanced at Shemi, who was looking at him with eager anticipation.

"Devraj~"

Shemi looked pitiful and pleading.

It seemed they would have to take action themselves!

"Let's help the Earth Goddess restore it!"

Indra said.

He turned to look at the earth below.

After this great battle, the land of the mortal realm was torn apart. Some parts sank into the sea, and many fragmented into islands. Only four relatively large portions of land remained surrounding Mandara Mountain.

"Gods, follow me and piece these islands of the mortal realm back together!"

Indra declared.

"Yes!"

The gods immediately began to act.

Varuna, the Water God, stopped the great flood, causing the seawater to recede; Agni, the Fire God, extinguished the wildfires; and Vayu, the Moon God, and Surya, along with Indra, worked together to piece the fragmented islands back into the shattered earth.

Rumble!

Indra's divine power surged from his hands, transforming into lightning ropes that pulled the islands across the sea and into the earth.

One, two, three...

Although the islands were large, they were not considered significant when faced with the power of the gods!

As the gods busied themselves, the shattered earth was gradually pieced back together, forming four vast continents surrounding Mandara Mountain.

"Finally done!"

Several months later, Indra's eyes shone as he let out a long sigh of relief.

The arduous cultivation over these past few months had caused his Power of Arduous Cultivation to increase at a rate far exceeding the norm. The accumulated Power of Arduous Cultivation was now approaching a century's worth.

"This actually works!"

Indra exclaimed inwardly, looking excitedly at his results.

Mandara Mountain stood tall at the center of the Human Realm.

Four great continents surrounded it.

The northern continent was vast and square, with rolling mountains. The eastern continent was shaped like a crescent moon, and the western continent was also shaped like a crescent moon, a perfect reflection.

The southern continent was shaped like a chariot.

This continent was quite fortunate, as many life forms still existed there, and numerous tall Jambudvipa Trees grew.

Hmm?!

Indra's gaze sharpened as he looked down at the four continents below.

A strange sense of familiarity washed over him, impacting his mind.

"This is..."
