Traveling Between Two Worlds: From Bread for Maids to Fantasy Overlord

On the defensive line of the dual-realm passage, spiritual energy and evil energy clashed violently, the roar shaking heaven and earth. A massive, dark demon army surged towards the defensive line like a tidal wave, led by none other than the still-powerful demon leader Mo Kun, who was still recovering from serious injuries. His aura as a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator swept across the entire area, black blood still seeping from the wound on his chest, but his eyes were icy cold and filled with murderous intent.

"Huang Yiming, you coward, come out and fight if you dare!" Mokun's roar pierced through the battle formation, causing the blood of the allied soldiers to surge. "You killed my demon leader Moro and stole my ancient fragments. Today, I will flatten your defensive lines, kill you and the five female protagonists, absorb your life essence, and annihilate both realms to avenge Moro!"

The demon army followed closely behind, letting out mournful roars and brandishing their evil weapons as they frantically charged towards the allied forces' defenses. On the battlefield, the roar of firearms, the explosions of cultivation techniques, the clash of weapons, and screams mingled together. Blood stained the defenses, and corpses littered the ground—a gruesome sight indeed.

Lingxi stood in the center of the defensive line, her spiritual plant power surging. Vast vines erupted from the ground, binding the demon soldiers at the forefront, but were severed by the enemy's evil weapons. Her spiritual plant essence was severely depleted; her face was ashen, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. "No, the demon army is too large! Our defenses are about to crumble!"

Qin Yuling, wielding a longsword, unleashed the full power of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, slaying a charging demon deputy general. Covered in wounds, she spoke gravely, "Mo Kun's mid-stage Golden Core cultivation is too strong. We are no match for him. If this continues, our defenses will be breached sooner or later, plunging both realms into catastrophe!"

Zi Yao activated a secret demonic technique, her evil weapon flashing as she slew several low-level demonic cultivators. However, she was struck by the aftershocks of Mo Kun's attack and staggered backward: "Yi Ming is still preparing to break through to the Golden Core stage. We must hold the line and buy him time. We absolutely cannot let the demonic cultivators disturb his breakthrough!"

Despite her own safety, Yang Xiu used her system storage space to continuously supply medicine and weapons to heal and replenish the allied soldiers. Although her cultivation level was the lowest, barely enough to protect herself, she remained steadfast at the rear of the defensive line, her voice resolute: "Everyone, hold on a little longer! Yiming will soon break through to the Golden Core stage. Then we can crush the demon army and defend the two realms!"

Su Qingyue controlled the energy jamming device, constantly disrupting the demonic cultivators' flow of evil energy, while simultaneously coordinating urban firepower support. Her eyes were resolute, her forehead covered in cold sweat: "The energy jamming device is almost depleted. If it stops operating, the demonic cultivators' combat power will increase, and the pressure on us will be even greater!"

At this moment, in the center of the dual-realm passage, Huang Yiming sat cross-legged, three ancient shards of the shuttle floating above his head, radiating dazzling golden light. His body was surrounded by the primordial power of both realms, and he was making every effort to break through to the Golden Core stage. His spiritual energy surged, his blood boiled, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat—the breakthrough process was extremely difficult, and the barrier of the Golden Core stage was like an impregnable fortress.

The system notifications kept ringing out: [The host is currently attempting to break through to the Golden Core stage, absorbing the power of the two realms' origins, progress 30%...50%...70%...]

Huang Yiming clearly sensed the fierce battle outside, the arduous resistance of the five women and the allied soldiers, and the arrogance of Mo Kun and the brutality of the demon army. He was extremely anxious, but he could only force himself to calm his mind and focus all his efforts on absorbing the power of the two realms' origins to break through to the Golden Core stage—he knew that only by breaking through to the Golden Core stage could he defeat the demon army and protect the five women and the two realms.

"Hahaha, Huang Yiming, it seems you don't dare to come out!" Mo Kun sneered, his tone arrogant. "Since you don't dare to come out, then I'll break through your defenses first, kill your woman, and then personally take your dog's life and seize the fragment in your hands!"

Having said that, Mokun raised his hand and slammed it down on the allied forces' defensive line, gathering a dense aura of evil energy. The evil energy, carrying immense power, tore through the air wherever it passed, instantly cracking the allied forces' defensive barrier. Many soldiers were struck by the shockwave and died on the spot.

"Not good!" Qin Yuling's expression changed drastically. She immediately circulated all her spiritual energy, condensing a sword aura that fiercely stabbed at Mo Kun's evil energy. Zi Yao and Ling tide also immediately exerted their strength to cooperate, but the three of them were hit by the shockwave, spitting out blood and crashing heavily to the ground, their injuries worsening.

"Yu Ling! Zi Yao! Ling Xi!" Yang Xiu and Su Qingyue were shocked to see this and immediately rushed over to heal the three of them and protect them.

Mo Kun let out a cold laugh, his figure flashing as he rushed towards Qin Yuling and the others. A dense, malevolent aura gathered in his hand, and he struck Qin Yuling's chest with a palm strike: "I'll kill you first, then the others!"

At the critical moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the center of the interdimensional passage, and Huang Yiming's aura surged instantly, breaking through the Golden Core stage barrier and rapidly advancing towards the early Golden Core stage. The system notification resounded throughout the area: [Host has absorbed the power of the two realms' origins, breaking through the Golden Core stage barrier, progress 90%...100%! Congratulations, host, you have successfully broken through to the early Golden Core stage, your combat power has doubled, and you can now contend with late Golden Core cultivators.]

Golden light swept across the entire area, suppressing Mo Kun's evil aura and blocking his attacks. Mo Kun's expression changed drastically, staring at Huang Yiming in the center of the passage with disbelief: "Impossible! How could you break through to the Golden Core stage so quickly? This is absolutely impossible!"

Huang Yiming slowly stood up, his body enveloped in the primordial power of both realms. Golden spiritual energy enveloped his entire body like armor, and he unleashed the full pressure of an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, even surpassing Mo Kun's mid-stage Golden Core pressure. His eyes were icy cold, filled with murderous intent, as he stared intently at Mo Kun, his tone resolute: "Mo Kun, you dare to invade both realms, harm my woman, and slaughter the people of both realms. Today, I will tear you to pieces and utterly crush the demon army!"

With that, Huang Yiming flashed forward, rushing towards Mo Kun. Three fragments of the teleportation device in his hand radiated golden light as he struck Mo Kun's chest with a palm strike. Mo Kun's expression changed drastically. He immediately channeled his evil energy to create a defensive barrier, attempting to block the attack.

But he didn't expect that Huang Yiming's combat power would surge after breaking through to the Golden Core stage. His golden spiritual energy easily shattered the defensive barrier, and he struck Mo Kun's chest heavily with a palm. "Pfft!" Mo Kun screamed, spitting out a large amount of black blood. His body crashed heavily to the ground, the wound on his chest reopened, his aura weakened, and his injuries were more serious than before.

Upon seeing this, the demon army instantly fell into chaos, their morale plummeted, and their previous arrogance vanished. The allied soldiers, however, were overjoyed, their fighting spirit soaring, and they launched a counterattack against the demon army, slaughtering demon cultivators.

Huang Yiming landed beside Qin Yuling and the others, gently helping them up, his eyes filled with tenderness and heartache: "I'm sorry you've suffered, I'm late." He took out healing pills from his storage space and handed them to the five women: "Quickly take these pills to recover from your injuries, leave the rest to me."

The five women swallowed the pills, their eyes filled with relief and joy—they knew that Huang Yiming had broken through to the Golden Core stage, and that they were finally saved, as were the two realms.

But just then, Mo Kun suddenly stood up, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. He pulled out a black token from his robes—a forbidden token of the Demon Clan—and poured all his remaining evil energy into it. The token instantly erupted with an eerie black light. "Huang Yiming, you think you can defeat me just by breaking through to the Golden Core stage? Dream on! Today, even if we perish together, I will summon the Demon Clan's forbidden guards to raze both realms to the ground!"

A black light shot straight into the sky, and the evil energy in the world surged. In the distance, the demon territory echoed with mournful roars, and an aura stronger than Mo Kun's was rapidly approaching—the demon guards were about to descend! Huang Yiming's expression changed drastically. He had not expected Mo Kun to use forbidden techniques to summon the guards, and an even greater crisis was quietly approaching.

Mokun uses forbidden techniques to summon demon guards, and even more powerful demon forces are about to arrive, escalating the crisis between the two realms once again.
