Fairy Yuechan was deeply shaken by Shi Hao's words. Her autumn-water eyes remained fixed on him, as though she wanted to discern some clue from his gaze.

Her red lips parted slightly as she asked in confusion and shock, "What did you say? Shi Hao, you want to become the Human Emperor?"

In the air, the collision between the Sacred Giant Dragon and the Angel Avatar unleashed a powerful Soul Power storm that ravaged the area around the plaza.

Shi Hao's black hair fluttered wildly in the storm. He nodded lightly at Fairy Yuechan and said in a deep voice, "That's right. I'm going to change the Tiandou Empire's name to the Stone Kingdom. From now on, I, Shi Hao, will be the Human Emperor of the Stone Kingdom. Anyone who offends the Stone Kingdom will be suppressed."

Fairy Yuechan looked at the arrogant glint on the young man's handsome face and could not help but freeze. "Stone Kingdom? Shi Hao, could it be that outside this place, you also come from the Stone Kingdom of the Desolate Domain?"

Her voice was as pleasant as heavenly music, making people yearn to hear more.

Shi Hao raised his head and looked toward the Sacred Giant Dragon and Angel Avatar battling in the sky. He gave a mysterious smile. "No, I'm not from the Stone Kingdom of the Desolate Domain. But there is indeed someone in the Stone Kingdom of the Desolate Domain who is stronger than me. You'll know once you leave. In any case, what I intend to do is much the same as that person. I will beat those powerful nobles and factions until they can no longer hold their heads high, for the sake of the billions of commoners in this Pocket World. Then I will personally suppress the lofty God Realm, establish a new Heavenly Court, and create a new cultivation system. I will let every commoner in this world cultivate and become a god through their own efforts..."

"Everyone can cultivate into gods?"

Fairy Yuechan stared at Shi Hao in shock. She drew a deep breath, seemingly recalling something terrifying, and said.

"Is it the Medicine Field Theory? Outside this secret realm, the Eight Regions are merely the Upper Realm's medicine field. Then could this Pocket World also be the God Realm's medicine field?"

"That's right..."

Shi Hao nodded solemnly and said.

"The gods of the God Realm rely on absorbing the power of faith from the Lower Realm to improve their cultivation. Therefore, they need more believers so they can absorb more faith and grow stronger. The God Realm has Rank Three Deities, Rank Two Deities, Rank One Deities, and the strongest God Kings. Whether advancing from Rank Three Deity to Rank Two Deity or from Rank Two Deity to Rank One Deity, they all need to absorb the power of faith from the Lower Realm. It is not only this Douluo Continent where you and I are; countless other planes are also medicine fields for the gods of the God Realm. The gods firmly occupy every divine position, while mortals who wish to become gods must receive their inheritance. If they do not choose you, then even if you cultivate until the end of your lifespan, you can never become a god..."

After hearing Shi Hao's words, Fairy Yuechan fell silent. She lightly bit her lips, slowly lowered her face, and pondered.

"Isn't this the same as the immortal path pursued in the outside world? For tens of thousands of years, not a single person has become immortal, yet countless cultivators still rush one after another onto this path of cultivation. Perhaps, just like this world within the secret realm, the end of the immortal path has long been firmly occupied by someone."

A few seconds after saying that, Fairy Yuechan suddenly raised her face again. Determination gleamed in her eyes, as though she had made an important decision.

"Fine, Shi Hao. In that case, I will help you become the Human Emperor. I am powerless before the Eight Regions outside the secret realm, which the Upper Realm treats as medicine fields. But within this secret realm, I can follow you into battle against the lofty God Realm."

"Good. Those words are enough, Lady Yuechan."

Hearing that, Shi Hao could not help but smile. He reached out and placed a hand on Fairy Yuechan's fragrant shoulder. "Since you cannot become immortal in the outside world, why not stay with me and live freely in this Pocket World? After all, here, you essentially possess an infinite lifespan, enough to attain the Dao and live forever..."

Fairy Yuechan's pretty face changed slightly. She did not answer Shi Hao. She merely lifted one foot lightly, then instantly turned into a phantom and vanished before his eyes.

It all happened so quickly that Shi Hao did not even have time to react.

He only felt his vision blur, and Fairy Yuechan's figure had already disappeared without a trace.

Then, Fairy Yuechan's soul transmission entered Shi Hao's mind. Her voice was gentle yet firm, as though every word was filled with strength and resolve.

"Shi Hao, I admire your goal. I will find the Xue Ye you mentioned and hand him over to you. As for everything else, go ahead without worry. I will help you stop anyone who tries to stand in your way."

Hearing Fairy Yuechan's transmission, a trace of emotion and warmth flashed in Shi Hao's eyes.

Of course, he knew Fairy Yuechan could not remain on Douluo Continent forever...

But it did not matter. They could deal with that later.

In truth, he did not care much whether Fairy Yuechan left or not. As long as the Willow Deity could bear him two children in the future, that would be enough...

In the blink of an eye, Fairy Yuechan had already infiltrated the palace where Xue Ye was staying.

With her cultivation, no one noticed her at all. The guards at the entrance, who had long since been replaced by Spirit Hall Soul Masters under Qian Renxue's orders, did not even see anyone enter.

After all, peak Array Formation Realm cultivation was terrifying enough on Douluo Continent.

In the sky, the battle between Qian Renxue, who had activated her Angel Avatar, and the Sacred Giant Insect continued.

The two enormous creatures collided in midair, unleashing terrifying energy ripples that made Tang San below tremble in fear. His injured left leg shook continuously like a sieve.

Qian Renxue's Angel Avatar radiated scorching light, sacred and imposing. In her hand was a Sacred Sword condensed from Angel Soul Power. Its blade resembled a brilliant flame, and every swing unleashed searing heat.

The Sacred Giant Dragon was not to be outdone. Its claws danced through the air, erupting with terrifying energy ripples.

After swinging her sword once more, Qian Renxue suddenly felt her Soul Power running low. Her delicate body trembled, and a streak of crimson blood flowed from the corner of her lips.

"Damn it. My battle with Tang San just now consumed too much Soul Power. I can no longer maintain the Angel Avatar. I didn't expect the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of those three to be so powerful. It is almost comparable to a Titled Douluo's ninth soul skill."

"Her Soul Power is insufficient. Now's the chance—go, Sanpao..."

At that moment, the worthless Yu Xiaogang of the Golden Triangle outside the plaza seized the opportunity. With a violent impact, he sent the Sacred Giant Dragon charging toward Qian Renxue's Angel Avatar.

Under the Sacred Giant Dragon's all-out strike, and without enough Soul Power to support it, the Angel Avatar was instantly shattered and dispersed into countless golden motes of light that faded into the air.

Struck by that tremendous force, Qian Renxue's delicate body shook violently. As though all her strength had vanished, she fell helplessly toward the ground.

Her face was pale as paper, and dried blood still lingered at the corner of her mouth. She drifted down through the air like a weightless fallen leaf.

Snake Lance Douluo, who was fiercely battling Yang Wudi below, caught sight of this and was horrified. He could not help shouting, "Young Mistress!"

He immediately abandoned his battle with Yang Wudi. His figure flashed like an arrow leaving the bow as he shot into the sky, trying to catch Qian Renxue.

However, just as he was about to touch Qian Renxue, a flash of golden light suddenly streaked past his eyes and caught the golden-haired girl before him.

It was the figure of a man in white robes. His face could not be seen, but the aura radiating from him felt as vast and imposing as mountains and seas.

In a flash of golden light, he held Qian Renxue and dashed toward the outside of the plaza. He was so fast that it was astounding, like a golden meteor cutting across the sky.

Snake Lance Douluo was greatly alarmed and hurriedly chased after the figure. His body carved a long arc through the sky as he shouted, "What is going on? Who is that person? Ci Xue, quickly come with me and save the Young Mistress!"
