Chapter 1494: Stop

In the cold, silent chaotic void, space storms raged, sweeping away all matter.

At this moment, within that ancient silence, a thunderous roar, filled with madness and pain, suddenly exploded. The roar generated destructive sound waves so powerful that even the space storms were dispersed.

Immediately afterward, a streaking light shot past, unleashing immense divine power that destroyed everything in its path.

Within that streaking light was Zhou Yuan, his eyes bloodshot and filled with madness and confusion, clearly indicating he had completely lost his sanity.

The shattering of the divine substance within him directly caused his divinity to collapse into chaos, violently clashing with his humanity and plunging his consciousness into disarray.

Far behind, Tun Tun carried Yaoyao as they pursued him. Yaoyao watched Zhou Yuan's rampaging, frantic figure, her teeth biting hard into her red lips.

Tun Tun let out a worried low growl.

"The vessel carrying Zhou Yuan's divinity has been destroyed," Yaoyao said, her gaze fixed on him. "Before, I saw the Saint God inject a powerful divine essence into him. That divinity was too strong, pushing his vessel to its limit and causing him to fall into this chaotic frenzy." Although she had lost her own divinity, her body was still considered divine, allowing her to sense the source of Zhou Yuan's turmoil.

"Creatures of the All-Heavens lack divine bones. Zhou Yuan was able to enter the Divine Stage this time because he found an alternative path: he refined a piece of divine substance I once left within him into a carrying vessel. However, this substance cannot fully replace a true divine bone, which is why it has so many flaws and drawbacks."

"The Saint God must have recognized Zhou Yuan's problem, which is why He directly sent a powerful divine essence. But for Zhou Yuan in his current state, such a peerless substance is a deadly poison."

By the end of her explanation, Yaoyao was clenching her silver teeth, an immense killing intent rising in her heart towards the Saint God.

Tun Tun growled again, clearly asking if there was a way to help Zhou Yuan.

Yaoyao pondered for a moment, then said, "Take me to him."

Hearing this, Tun Tun hesitated. Zhou Yuan was completely irrational now, rampaging and destroying everything. If Yaoyao got close, she would likely be subject to indiscriminate attacks.

However, it ultimately charged forward, its four hooves tearing through the void, dodging the divine light erupting from Zhou Yuan's body as if teleporting.

As Tun Tun drew closer, Zhou Yuan instinctively reacted. The Heavenly Yuan Brush in his hand immediately surged with powerful divine energy, whistling toward them like a bolt of lightning.

Tun Tun flicked its head, sending Yaoyao swiftly forward. It then roared and extended its massive claw, directly colliding with the Heavenly Yuan Brush.

A deafening crash echoed. Tun Tun let out a cry of pain as its massive body was sent flying backward, slamming into a continent-sized asteroid. With a thunderous rumble, the lifeless asteroid continent instantly collapsed from its center.

Seizing the moment Tun Tun bought, Yaoyao appeared directly in front of Zhou Yuan.

She quickly glanced at Zhou Yuan's bloodshot, beast-like eyes, and a profound pang of heartache swelled within her.

However, sensing her approach, Zhou Yuan's bloodshot eyes showed no emotion. His fist, imbued with divine power, brutally struck out, intending to shatter the person before him.

Seeing this, Yaoyao's delicate figure flickered, dodging the attack. Although her divinity was gone, she still possessed the power of a divine body, making her strength far superior to that of Three-Lotus Stage Saints.

She pressed closer, carrying a delicate fragrance, and directly threw herself into Zhou Yuan's embrace. Immediately, she wrapped her slender, jade-like arms tightly around his waist.

"Zhou Yuan, I told you I wouldn't leave you," Yaoyao said softly.

Then, before Zhou Yuan could struggle, she tilted her head slightly, and her somewhat cool lips pressed against his.

That instant, the cool, jade-like touch caused Zhou Yuan, who was in a state of madness and confusion, to suddenly stiffen and freeze for a moment.

But this was only momentary. Soon, divine power around Zhou Yuan began to gather once more.

Yaoyao, seizing the opportunity, bit her tongue lightly with her silver teeth. The next moment, a stream of divine blood essence flowed from her tongue directly into Zhou Yuan's mouth.

As soon as the divine blood essence touched Zhou Yuan, it rapidly integrated into his body. At that moment, the madness and confusion in his eyes seemed to subside slightly.

It was Yaoyao using her own divine blood to regulate the rampant divinity within Zhou Yuan.

She intended to use her divine blood as a medium to temporarily help Zhou Yuan bear the divine essence within him. However, this was merely a stopgap measure; it couldn't resolve his current predicament. Its only effect would be to prevent him from continuing in such a frenzied and chaotic state.

As the divine blood essence flowed, Yaoyao's already fair skin gradually became paler. But she paid it no mind, continuously pouring her divine blood essence into Zhou Yuan's body.

Meanwhile, the berserk divine power emanating from Zhou Yuan's body gradually calmed.

Finally, when their lips parted, Zhou Yuan's body had completely settled.

Tun Tun leaped over. Seeing Zhou Yuan no longer rampaging, it let out a joyful roar.

However, it soon realized something was wrong. Although Zhou Yuan was no longer destroying everything in a frenzy, he stood motionless, the blood-red color gone from his eyes, replaced by a vacant stare.

He looked no different from a stone statue.

Yaoyao gently wiped a trace of blood from the corner of her mouth and said, "Although I temporarily helped him bear the rampant divinity with my own essence, this isn't a fundamental solution. The constant clash between his humanity and divinity has caused him to lose his conscious will, making him unable to control his own body."

Tun Tun immediately became dejected. Didn't this mean Zhou Yuan had become a fool?

Yaoyao, unusually, smiled, trying to encourage it. "We have to take it one step at a time. Now that Zhou Yuan is no longer insane, we can take him back and think of other ways."

Then, her beautiful eyes turned to Zhou Yuan, who stood rigidly beside them. His vacant expression bore no trace of his former bright smile.

For a moment, Yaoyao's eyes welled up, and the anguish in her heart nearly brought tears to her eyes. She wiped the corners of her eyes, reached out her small hand, and took Zhou Yuan's, offering a smile. "Zhou Yuan, let's go. I'll take you home."

She led Zhou Yuan, while Tun Tun crouched down, allowing them to sit on its back. Finally, it roared and sped across the star river, rushing towards the All-Heavens.

In the chaotic void, countless asteroid fragments, like shattered continents, flew chaotically and without order.

Yaoyao sat cross-legged on Tun Tun's broad back, holding Zhou Yuan's hand tightly. She gazed at his blank, vacant eyes and softly murmured to herself.

"Zhou Yuan, rest assured, I will definitely make you well again."
