For a moment, the scene fell silent.
Empress Ba lowered her head slightly, her black hair cascading over that stunning, cold face.
The human emperor sword had pierced through Empress Ba's chest.
Logically speaking, such an injury would definitely be a grievous wound.
But for a powerhouse of Empress Ba's Rank,
even if her body was pierced, it could not cause a fatal injury.
Moreover, Jun Xiaoyao's primary goal was not to harm Empress Ba.
Instead, it was to awaken her.
"Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter, it is time for you to return."
After Jun Xiaoyao pierced Empress Ba with the sword, that human emperor sword actually began to tremble on its own.
Then, strands of fresh blood began to ooze and spread across the surface of the golden blade, before merging into Empress Ba's body.
It was precisely the Soul Blood of the Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter.
The human emperor sword was also a tool to assist in summoning back the Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter.
Because it also contained the methods left behind by the Great Emperor Xuanyuan, using Soul Blood to guide the Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter back.
"No... I... I am..."
Empress Ba was currently gripping the human emperor sword in her chest with her fair hands.
Her expression was shifting, and in her golden pupils, billions of emotions seemed to flash by in an instant.
Internally, the Human Soul, Earth Soul, and Life Soul were suppressing the Heavenly Soul that belonged to Empress Ba's personality.
Externally, there was the human emperor sword assisting in the suppression, along with the guidance of the Soul Blood.
With internal and external forces combined, working in tandem.
If this still couldn't summon the Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter back,
then Jun Xiaoyao would be powerless to do anything more.
The Soul Blood seeping from the human emperor sword enveloped Empress Ba's delicate body.
Her entire being seemed to be sealed within a blood-colored cocoon.
Terrifying fluctuations of Soul Power were transmitted from within from time to time.
Clearly, the Divine Souls like Yiyi were also trying hard to suppress Empress Ba's personality and will.
In the end, Empress Ba turned into a cocoon.
Jun Xiaoyao watched quietly, waiting in silence.
The importance of Empress Ba was beyond doubt.
This was not only about Jun Xiaoyao's promise to Yiyi.
It could even have a profound impact on the entire layout of the Black Calamity war.
After all, for an existence of Empress Ba's Rank, having one more or one less made a completely different concept.
In a war of the world-destroying Rank like the Black Calamity war,
ordinary Emperor-level powerhouses might not be able to have a major impact on the overall battle situation.
But a Mythical Emperor could.
Even though Empress Ba's current abilities had not yet reached the Peak Mythical level.
She was still absolutely the most important combat force.
I don't know how much time passed, but the chaotic aura within the blood cocoon gradually calmed down.
It seemed to have stabilized.
Then, the surface of the blood cocoon began to crack.
Jun Xiaoyao did not show a relaxed expression; instead, his eyes carried a hint of solemnity.
He did not know what the final outcome would be.
Whether the Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter could truly be summoned back.
If it didn't work...
The only thing Jun Xiaoyao could do was to use his Divine Dharma Body to find a way to separate Yiyi's soul.
This was also the only thing he could do.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was waiting cautiously,
the blood cocoon covered in cracks finally split open completely.
Afterward, ten thousand rays of radiance bloomed from within.
A hazy, beautiful figure emerged.
Jun Xiaoyao took one look and immediately revealed a look of surprise.
The figure that appeared was indeed Empress Ba, but it was different.
Her head of black hair had turned into long, dazzling golden hair.
Paired with those golden beautiful eyes and a peerless appearance,
she truly felt like an angel queen, holy, beautiful, and unparalleled.
Seeing Empress Ba, whose appearance and temperament had almost completely changed,
Jun Xiaoyao spoke to test her.
"Xuanyuan Emperor Daughter?"
Empress Ba's gaze turned to Jun Xiaoyao.
No...
Perhaps at this moment, she should no longer be called Empress Ba.
Because in these golden eyes, the cold and dark aura was gone.
Replaced by a complex and wistful emotion.
As if looking back, through the ages, only she remained.
A desolate and lonely voice, carrying the emotion of sighing over the ages, sounded.
"I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, it has been so many years of sinking."
Empress Ba, or rather, Xuanyuan Qingxiao, let out a faint sigh.
She raised her hand and, inch by inch, pulled the human emperor sword from her chest.
Right now, this human emperor sword obviously could not cause her any harm.
Because this was originally something her father wanted to give her.
Finally, the human emperor sword was pulled out.
Xuanyuan Qingxiao's jade hand brushed over the body of the human emperor sword.
On the blade, it seemed to reflect that towering figure.
On the side, seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao silently dispersed the Divine Dharma Body behind him.
Although this time, the Divine Dharma Body had used a massive amount of Power Of Faith.
But the effort had a result.
Jun Xiaoyao did not disturb Xuanyuan Qingxiao, letting her gather her emotions.
After a while,
Xuanyuan Qingxiao came back to her senses and took a deep breath.
Those exquisite and magnificent golden eyes fell upon Jun Xiaoyao.
"You are Jun Xiaoyao."
Xuanyuan Qingxiao said.
Jun Xiaoyao also revealed a faint smile and nodded slightly: "Does Lady Emperor know of me?"
"After all, my several souls all have a very deep impression of you, one could even say, etched into the bone."
Xuanyuan Qingxiao looked deeply at Jun Xiaoyao.
Whether it was Yiyi or Luoluo, both had extreme affection and bonds with Jun Xiaoyao.
And they were parts that made up Xuanyuan Qingxiao's personality.
So Xuanyuan Qingxiao could not help but have different feelings for Jun Xiaoyao.
"However, this time, I must thank you. Otherwise, I don't know what kind of monstrous evil I would have committed in the identity of Empress Ba."
Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Qingxiao's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of dimness.
Although for these years, her personality was controlled by Empress Ba.
But she naturally also knew what she had done.
She could be called a destroying Empress who destroyed the world with one hand.
"Lady Emperor, this is not a sin that belongs to you, but a conspiracy of the Black Calamity."
"Moreover, since things have already happened, what needs to be done next is to try to make amends and solve the problem," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Xuanyuan Qingxiao looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
Then she nodded slightly.
Indeed, no matter how much regret or sadness there is now, it is of no use.
Since Jun Xiaoyao summoned her back, the only thing she can do now is to try her best to make up for it.
"Lady Emperor, can this world-destroying millstone be destroyed?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"I will try."
Xuanyuan Qingxiao held the human emperor sword.
There was a feeling of being connected by blood.
The next moment, Xuanyuan Qingxiao's whole body rose with immeasurable light; that was not the power of the Ba Clan.
But a supreme, holy power, permeating the noble aura of the Xuanyuan Bloodline.
The human emperor sword was activated, emitting a buzzing tremor, and the golden power flowed like water, transferring to Xuanyuan Qingxiao.
Afterward, on Xuanyuan Qingxiao's body, the golden energy condensed into pieces of golden armor, covering her.
Outlining her delicate body perfectly.
Every inch of her skin was crystalline and flawless, beautiful enough to make people breathless.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Qingxiao seemed to have transformed into a golden-haired Valkyrie, holding the human emperor sword, with majestic power sweeping across three thousand Universes.
Then, she slashed down with one sword, the human emperor sword Qi gushing out, filling the Universe.
It struck directly at the core of the world-destroying millstone, the black sun!
