# Chapter 1662: Broken Heart (Part 1)
Jie Mo Huo Tian... This name left the Burning Moon crowd utterly bewildered. However, they had all clearly seen the unprecedented shock on the faces of the Burning Moon God Emperor and Fen Daozang.
One breath... Two breaths... Three breaths...
After exhaling three full breaths, the Burning Moon God Emperor finally cooled down. He said in a deep voice: "The Jie Mo Huo Tian formation, and the changes in the Demonesses... are all because of... the Demon Emperor's power he inherited!?"
After all, he was the Burning Moon God Emperor. Even though his heart was churning like a tsunami, he still quickly sorted out a fact that was clearly unbelievable yet right before his eyes... As the Northern Domain's God Emperor, how could he not know that the Calamity Demon Emperor had once returned, and then left because of Yun Che?
The Burning Moon crowd still didn't know about Jie Mo Huo Tian, but they heard the four words "Demon Emperor's power" clearly. For a moment, even the Moon Devourer was struck as if by heavenly thunder, shocked to the point their eyeballs nearly burst.
Demon Emperor... That was the emperor of ancient true demons, an existence above faith itself!
"Dark Eternal Calamity," Chi Wuyue said with a smile. "The Burning Moon God Emperor wouldn't possibly not know whose demonic art it is, and what kind of power it holds, would he?"
Burning Moon God Emperor: "!!"
"No! Impossible!" Fen Daozang stepped forward, his voice extremely urgent: "Dark Eternal Calamity is the original profound art of the ancient Calamity Demon Emperor! According to records, even fellow true demons and other demon emperors couldn't cultivate it. How could Yun Che possibly... possibly..."
"Then what did you see?" Chi Wuyue smiled faintly.
"..." Fen Daozang stammered, unable to speak.
The two Demonesses' utterly abnormal control over darkness, which even the Burning Moon God Emperor couldn't match, and the terrifying demonic formation he had personally experienced but couldn't understand... None of these belonged to the power of the present world, yet they all vaguely matched the Dark Eternal Calamity, that legendary, recorded symbol of ultimate darkness.
"Perfect Dark Harmony has never appeared in the million-year history of the Northern Divine Realm, but in the hands of Yun Che, who has inherited the Demon Emperor's power and cultivated Dark Eternal Calamity, it's merely something done casually."
Chi Wuyue spoke slowly and leisurely, each word shocking the world: "The Burning Moon God Emperor must have been curious why this Empress recalled all the Demonesses, Soul Spirits, and Soul Attendants. Now do you understand the reason?"
The Burning Moon God Emperor's body swayed slightly.
Fen Daozang, the Moon Devourers, Burning Moon Divine Envoys, princes, and princesses were all stunned on the spot.
Perfect Dark Harmony that had never existed in the Northern Divine Realm... Yun Che could do it casually!?
All Demonesses, Soul Spirits, and Soul Attendants recalled...
That is to say, under Yun Che's hand, their darkness-controlling abilities had very likely all reached Perfect Dark Harmony that even God Emperors couldn't achieve!?
This, this is...
If all this were true, then wouldn't it mean... those who were once at the same level would now be one grade lower?
The ninth Demoness, at the mid-stage eighth-level Divine Lord, could almost be said to have a complete victory over the Moon Devourer Ji Daopian at the late-stage eighth-level Divine Lord by virtue of Perfect Dark Harmony!
If all Demonesses had undergone such a transformation, then the Moon Devourers would undoubtedly be a level below the Demonesses from now on!
Extending further to Soul Spirits and Soul Attendants... and then to the star realms. Wouldn't the entire Burning Moon Divine Realm be lowered beneath the Jiehun Realm!
And what would the final upper limit of the nine Demonesses' power reach...
Just thinking about it briefly made them break out in cold sweat all over, and they dared not continue.
Now, as they looked at the motionless, silent Yun Che, their gazes had all undergone earth-shattering changes.
The Burning Moon God Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, barely concealing his almost out-of-control gaze: "Back then, the dark aura in the Northern Divine Realm frequently changed abnormally. Later, we learned that the ancient Calamity Demon Emperor had not perished but had survived in the Outer Chaos until now, returning with vengeance... and later returned to the Outer Chaos because of Yun Che."
Due to the Northern Divine Realm's hostility and isolation from the other three divine realms, the Burning Moon God Emperor knew few details, but he understood the general gist.
"So before leaving, the Calamity Demon Emperor left behind such a precious gift of darkness."
As he said these words, his gaze was on Yun Che: "No wonder he could kill the Yanmo Demon King with the power of a seventh-level Divine Sovereign. No wonder he could make the Demon Empress willingly serve him as emperor. Calamity Demon Emperor... Dark Eternal Calamity. It seems that my Northern Divine Realm has finally reached the time to overturn its fate."
His words gradually began to show excitement and agitation.
How could Chi Wuyue not see through his intentions? She gave a faint, cold laugh and said: "Burning Moon God Emperor, it's too late for you to flatter him now. Because he belongs to this Empress, he belongs to the Jiehun Realm, not to the Northern Divine Realm, and certainly not to the Burning Moon Realm!"
The Burning Moon God Emperor's expression stiffened slightly, then immediately returned to calmness as he said with a smile: "The Demon Empress's words are too much. The Calamity Demon Emperor, as an ancient true demon emperor, left such a legacy precisely for the fate and future of our Northern Divine Realm! How could it possibly... belong only to your Jiehun Realm!"
The Demon Emperor's power and Dark Eternal Calamity on Yun Che might be hard for others to believe, but with the Burning Moon God Emperor's inherited ancient memories and Burning Moon history, combined with what he had witnessed... he simply couldn't disbelieve.
Nor did he doubt Chi Wuyue's words!
And thus, with all Demonesses, Soul Spirits, and Soul Attendants having completed their transformations, his Burning Moon Realm had unknowingly been pressed down by the Jiehun Realm!
Even the two weakest little Demonesses could barely suppress his Burning Moon Realm's strongest Moon Devourer. If the great Demoness came... what then!
And all of this was because of one person—Yun Che!
The Burning Moon God Emperor appeared very calm on the surface, but every strand of his soul and every blood vessel felt as if flames were raging wildly, causing him endless shock, fear, and at the same time, the strongest jealousy he had ever known...
He had known early on that Yun Che had come to the Northern Divine Realm, and had even secretly hunted him back then for the Primordial Divine Marrow. But he had never known that Yun Che possessed the Demon Emperor's power and Dark Eternal Calamity... and that the Jiehun Realm had gotten to him first!
If Yun Che had been obtained by the Burning Moon Realm, then all of this... would belong to his Burning Moon Realm!
"Heh, ridiculous."
Unsurprisingly, the Burning Moon God Emperor's words were met only with Chi Wuyue's cold sneer: "Yun Che is a living person. Where he wants to go and who he belongs to is for him to decide. When did he become the common property of the Northern Divine Realm? Did the Burning Moon God Emperor consult his own brain before uttering such words?"
"Besides, back then you sent people to secretly hunt and kill him... you haven't forgotten that so soon, have you?"
"Even if you really have forgotten, this Empress will remember it for you."
The Burning Moon God Emperor tried his best to maintain his calm, but the line of his brow still sank slightly.
Chi Wuyue suddenly turned her eyes, her soul-invading gaze slowly sweeping over every person in the hall, then she spoke softly: "The fate of the Northern Divine Realm is indeed about to change, but the one changing it all is only my Jiehun Realm. Of course..."
"If anyone wishes to be transformed in an instant, personally experience a different dark domain, and personally build and witness all of this, my Jiehun Realm naturally welcomes them."
Threads of demonic sound entered the ears and penetrated the heart, lingering, lingering in the soul.
From the Moon Devourers, to the Burning Moon Divine Envoys, to the princes and princesses—everyone was moved.
The Burning Moon God Emperor clenched his hands slightly. He didn't need to look to know the impact Chi Wuyue's words would have on them.
The Demonesses' power was plain for all to see. To undergo such a transformation in an instant... this could almost be called the greatest temptation in the Northern Divine Realm's history. Anyone who cultivated dark profound force could not help but be tempted, regardless of loyalty.
And the stronger one's power, the more dementing the temptation would be.
To sway the Burning Moon crowd's hearts right in front of the God Emperor—any other God Emperor would have been furious... But the Burning Moon God Emperor was not angry, nor did he even rebuke her.
Because the feeling of having already been stepped on by the Jiehun Realm was too clear. Someone who had never been willing to clash head-on with the Jiehun Realm in the past... now, perhaps he didn't even need to weigh the options.
With a faint glance at the Burning Moon God Emperor, Chi Wuyue's lips curled almost imperceptibly. Her purpose for coming today had been fully achieved.
Let alone whether the Burning Moon God Emperor would dare to scheme again, just the restlessness among the Moon Devourers and Burning Moon Divine Envoys would be enough to keep him occupied for a long time.
It wasn't that she was particularly clever, but that Yun Che's Dark Eternal Calamity power was simply too powerful... After all, it was the path's ultimate force that led the true demons in ancient times.
Chi Wuyue turned around seductively, facing the exit of the hall, and spoke with her back to the Burning Moon God Emperor: "For these past two years, the Burning Moon God Emperor must have been worried that this Empress would come to settle old accounts, right?"
Burning Moon God Emperor: "..."
"Hmph," she gave a faint smile. "But you can put such worries aside for now. Because a mere Primordial Divine Marrow is no longer that important to this Empress."
"When Yun Che is crowned emperor in the Jiehun Realm, I hope the Burning Moon God Emperor will honor us with his presence."
"Let's go."
Just as Yun Che was about to rise, the Burning Moon God Emperor's voice suddenly rang out:
"Wait."
Chi Wuyue looked back: "Does the Burning Moon God Emperor have further instruction?"
The Burning Moon God Emperor walked forward slowly, his calm gaze difficult to read. He said with a smile: "This King has understood the Demon Empress's meaning. It is rare to meet the Demon Empress in person. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, this King has an inappropriate request, and I hope the Demon Empress will grant it."
"Oh?" Chi Wuyue responded lightly.
The Burning Moon God Emperor lifted his head slightly and said: "The emperors of successive royal realms, at the end of their lives, their greatest wish has always been to catch a glimpse of the dark domain beyond the limit. But no one has ever fulfilled that wish."
"Even the Yan Ancestors of the Yanmo Realm, who immersed themselves in darkness for hundreds of thousands of years, could never break through the boundary of 'Divine Lord'."
"But... with the Demon Empress's ability, merged with the power of Dark Eternal Calamity, it might be enough to present a dark domain that even our ancestors have never seen."
The Burning Moon God Emperor's left hand surged with demonic light, and his right hand made a "please" gesture: "I ask the Demon Empress to let this King witness it, to fulfill the great wish of this life."
Clearly, he wanted to probe Chi Wuyue's depth.
If even the weakest Demoness could undergo such a stunning transformation under the power of Dark Eternal Calamity, then with Chi Wuyue's already extremely powerful strength combined with Dark Eternal Calamity, could her power far surpass before?
As the emperor of the soul realm who had always been on par with him in strength and status, this was obviously extremely important.
