Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

The emperors all knew about the strange red threads on the head of the Divine Martial Emperor. If they saw the red threads on the head of the Divine Martial Emperor, they would think that the Great Calamity of the Epoch had begun and would be so frightened that they would run away in all directions.

When Lu Chen saw that all the emperors present were focused on the battle, and that even the emperors of the Immortal Alliance had not fled, he realized that the black hole above the Divine Martial Emperor's head and those scarlet eyes were probably only visible to him and the Divine Martial Emperor.

This left Lu Chen somewhat unsure whether it was truly the sign that the Great Cataclysm had begun.

Lu Chen thought for a moment. Since the Divine Martial Emperor was currently using those eyes, he could take this opportunity to get away from the Central Star Region.

Those eyes made him feel extremely dangerous. Although he didn't know if it was a sign of the beginning of the Great Cataclysm, staying away from that thing was definitely the right choice.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately transmitted his voice to all the emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty, "Everyone, prepare to evacuate the Central Star Region!"

Upon hearing this, the emperors who were preparing to fight the Heavenly Demon Army were stunned and withdrew from the Central Star Region.

Why withdraw from the central star system at this time?

Wasn't the Divine Martial Emperor already unable to move? Why not take this opportunity to eliminate him directly instead of withdrawing from the Central Star Region?

If they withdraw now, wouldn't their trip have been for nothing?

Lu Chen didn't explain much to the people. He didn't know how long the Divine Martial Emperor could hold on. If the Divine Martial Emperor couldn't hold on any longer and his eyes turned towards them, then things would probably be troublesome.

At this moment, the Thunder Emperor transmitted his voice and asked, "Your Majesty, isn't now the best time to eliminate the Divine Martial Emperor? Why the sudden retreat?"

Lu Chen said calmly, "I will tell you the reason after we withdraw from the Central Star Region."

Since Lu Chen had already said that, the emperors couldn't say anything more. After all, Lu Chen was the ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty, and he must have his reasons for doing so.

To help the Great Xia Dynasty's army retreat, Lu Chen immediately mobilized the power of the seven colors and swung his sword. In the next moment, countless demons were annihilated in the universe.

Seeing what was happening in the distance, Emperor Yunjing and the emperors of the Immortal Alliance could not help but sigh. If only they could have joined the Great Xia Dynasty earlier, or brought the Great Xia Dynasty into the Immortal Alliance.

If Lu Chen had been there, they wouldn't have suffered such heavy casualties. Just as the emperors were lamenting, they suddenly discovered that the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet was actually retreating.

Seeing this, people were immediately puzzled. Wasn't the Great Xia Dynasty in the dominant position? Why would it suddenly retreat?

After the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet withdrew to a certain distance, the one hundred Great Emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty who had not participated in the Spirit Gathering Array also began to gradually retreat.

The Cloud Whale Emperor and others immediately began to discuss among themselves.

"What happened?"

Why is the Great Xia Dynasty retreating?

"Could it be that Lu Chen is about to use some means, and he's afraid it will affect others, so he had them retreat?"

"If that's the case, then he could have just prevented the Great Xia Dynasty's immortal ship from going up in the first place."

Something's not right.

……

At this moment, the Cloud Whale Emperor said, "I will go and ask."

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Cloud Whale disembarked from the immortal ship and flew to the retreating emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty. "Why did you retreat? Weren't you powerful enough to suppress the Heavenly Demon?"

The emperor replied, "This is His Majesty's order. We don't know what happened. Perhaps His Majesty discovered something."

"You should retreat quickly too. His Majesty will tell us the reason after we leave the Central Star Region."

Upon hearing the Emperor's words, Emperor Cloud Whale wasted no more time and immediately returned to the Immortal Alliance's celestial ship.

When the emperors of the Immortal Alliance saw him return, they immediately surrounded him.

One of the emperors asked urgently, "Emperor Cloud Whale, have you found out anything? Why did the Great Xia Dynasty suddenly retreat?"

The Cloud Whale Emperor replied, "Those emperors didn't know the reason either. It was Lu Chen who ordered them to retreat. Perhaps Lu Chen discovered something."

"We will retreat immediately as well."

This……

Upon hearing this, the emperors looked at each other.

Emperor Cloud Whale spoke again, saying, "Once we leave the Central Star Region, Lu Chen should tell us the reason. Let's retreat first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Cloud Whale immediately steered the immortal ship to retreat. Seeing that Emperor Cloud Whale had retreated, the other emperors also chose to retreat.

Seeing that the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet and the Immortal Alliance's allied forces had withdrawn to a certain distance, Lu Chen directly mobilized his primordial power, once again converging the three forces into the Shattered God Sword.

Then he swung his sword.

With this sword strike, the surging tide of demonic energy was instantly reduced to dust. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Chen immediately deactivated the Spirit Gathering Array and then led the emperors of the Spirit Gathering Array away from the Divine Moon Dynasty.

At this time, the Divine Martial Emperor had not yet noticed that Lu Chen had already run away. He was desperately extracting the power of the universe's origin, trying to completely control the entire universe.

Just when he felt he was about to touch the will of the universe, he suddenly found countless red threads appearing in front of him. Before the Divine Martial Emperor could react, those red threads pierced through his body.

Feeling his body being dissolved by those red threads, the Divine Martial Emperor's face showed a look of horror. He immediately thought of the strange red threads that appeared during the Great Cataclysm of the Epoch.

The Divine Martial Emperor roared in defiance, "No!!! I will not perish like this! So what if it's an epochal calamity!!!"

"Once I completely control this universe, the great calamities of the era will also be under my command!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Martial Emperor unleashed the full power of the Heavenly Demon within his body. In an instant, the entire Divine Moon Dynasty was enveloped in a vortex of Heavenly Demon power, and the Heavenly Demons of the Divine Moon Dynasty were swept into this vortex before they could even react.

As the vortex of the Heavenly Demon Power spun faster and faster, the Heavenly Demon Power within the bodies of the Heavenly Demons of the Divine Moon Dynasty was gradually extracted, and those Heavenly Demons turned into dust.

The demons felt their demonic power being drained from their bodies by the Divine Martial Emperor. Panic ensued as they struggled and howled wildly, their cries echoing throughout the entire Central Star Region.

Lu Chen, who was evacuating the central star field, heard the Heavenly Demon's wailing and immediately turned to check the situation of the Divine Moon Dynasty. As he expected, the red threads had indeed launched an attack on the Divine Martial Emperor and bound him up.

At this moment, the emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Immortal Alliance also discovered the situation of the Divine Moon Dynasty. Seeing that the entire Divine Moon Dynasty had been drawn into the vortex of the Heavenly Demon Power, the emperors felt a chill run down their spines.

If they hadn't evacuated just now, wouldn't they have been swept into this terrifying vortex as well? Is this the true power of the Divine Martial Emperor? It's truly terrifying!

At this moment, apart from Lu Chen, the other emperors were unaware of the situation of the Divine Martial Emperor. They thought that the vortex was a sign that the Divine Martial Emperor was about to attack Lu Chen.
