NOVPUBRhea soon returned to Elysia’s side, and Elysia handed Amy under Rhea’s care.
After that, Elysia looked up at the damaged red moon. She hadn’t had time to analyze that purple phantom closely to trigger the status screen. However, Amy and that purple phantom was clearly in the Immortal Lord Realm.
Despite being suppressed by the lower world’s suppression and fighting without using their divine abilities to their full power, these two Immortals were equally terrifying. Fortunately, these two 16th Rank Immortals mostly fought in the void and other dimensions, minimizing the damage.
Only Amy was the one who actively bombarded the enemy. The purple phantom mainly focused on defending and running away.
"The moon is damaged, and it will affect the world." Elysia glanced at Rhea.
"Mm, the gravitational force will decrease, affecting the world’s nature. The changes that occur are not significant, but we need to stabilize this moon for the damage." Rhea confirmed it with a little explanation.
It was okay if they didn’t do anything, but she knew Elysia would do something to the moon.
Elysia made a circular gesture with her index finger, pointing it at the missing chunk of the moon.
The moon seemed to be cut into a perfect crescent, lifting a massive amount of lunar soil.
After that, she pulled down several large space objects to patch up the crescent moon before burying it with the lunar soil, repairing the damaged red moon’s round shape with a quick-fix solution.
"That’s it." Elysia dusts off her hands after completing the task.
She didn’t know how, but she could control the celestial objects in outer space more efficiently and effectively than usual by using a little magic. However, that was only valid if she was present in outer space. She would still require quite a lot of energy to summon the meteors worth a quarter of a month from inside the planet.
"Woah..." Rhea stared in awe at her master.
"Ely, we failed to catch that phantom thief. She disappeared somewhere in the void. Even Fortuna couldn’t predict it further." Elena returned empty-handed.
"Forgive me. The enemy is a specialist in escaping. I need to raise my divinity to 15th Rank to perform further divination on him." Fortuna apologized as she couldn’t help it either.
"I only managed to cut her phantom limb. Before she used her long-distance spatial teleportation to the unknown void. We can still hunt her if we track her aura with this." Ai emerged from the void with a phantom tail in her hand.
"The enemy has an elemental phantom body. I managed to put the corrupted energy into his body." Zera returned and reported.
"Amy is impressive for hunting that slippery phantom for a week without losing track. She is a good hunter, but the situation is difficult." Nell crossed her arms while observing the unconscious Amy.
"She’s not afraid of death, but fear of losing her Lord’s favor and trust. She also doesn’t want Ely to be angry with her. She’s quite desperate, but she’s pretty good. But what do you think? We can still hunt that phantom with Ai and Zera’s mark." Lifa briefly checked Amy’s condition before asking for Elysia’s opinion.
"Let her go and take a breath for now. Ai and Zera managed to inflict serious injuries on that phantom thief. However, it was only a small payback. We will know her precise location once she takes out the Kaleidoscopic Sphere’s afterimage that Miko left there." Ely stared in a particular direction.
Hunting down the enemy would require a lot of effort and time. The enemy’s current state was weakened and seriously injured. After the other party felt relieved and took out the little gift only to be greeted by a giant bomb, they would capture that phantom.
"Is this what is called, let the enemy breathe before death? It’s interesting to bring down someone into despair after a relief."
Ai chuckled like a villain.
"Alright. That’s for now. Let’s return... hm?" Elysia took Ai’s arm and invited everyone to return. Yet, she found a particularly colourful shadow in the distance, suddenly turned around and ran away.
"What’s that?" Elena also noticed the strange movement in the distant universe sky.
"A particular outer space creature?" Elysia muttered softly, hoping it was true. She didn’t have time to observe that one closely before it vanished somewhere.
"Mm, it would be wonderful if it was the cosmic beast or something." Rhea agrees with her master. She also wanted to see the beauty of wonder from the vast universe, not the nightmare one like the outer space Ruvoid.
"Several parties watched the battle between Amy and that purple phantom. The clashes between two 16th Rank Immortals were rare and worthy for them to watch. However, they also feared being exposed to the implications of a divine clash." Nell tried to guess it.
"I believe several parties are waiting for the opportunity to strike down the two 16th Rank Imrotals when both parties are dying. I speak from experience." Lifa stated the bitter truth in a light tone as if it meant nothing.
"What about the space merchant mentioned by Xentia? They were supposed to visit this planet this month, but did Amy’s battle scare them?" Fortuna wondered whether the mentioned merchant would appear or not.
"It could happen." Elysia shrugged her shoulders and took everyone back to Sacred Mountain.
At the same time, Xentia and other Elysium members teleported back from ES Nirvana to the Shrine Abode.

As the twilight sky enveloped the Sacred Sakura’s region, countless people became much more lively than before.
Apart from Sacred Sakura’s people and the Supreme Goddess’ faithful followers, outsider powerhouses from the Human Realm, Northern Realm, and Demon Realm were also present.
Many allied factions from several other minor realms were also there, trying to curry favour under the auspices of Sacred Sakura.
After the storm and the troublemakers were punished, these outsider powerhouses remained in Sacred Sakura’s vicinity, hoping to pay respects to the Sacred Sakura Goddess.
Among all the excitement, there was someone who was increasingly depressed and afraid of what might happen soon.
Shui Meiying, the Frozen Cloud Saintess, couldn’t help but sigh when she saw her saintess friend Mingyue looking so restless.
She then muttered, gazing at the Sacred Sakura’s great mountains in the distance. "Have you thought about it again?"
"Meiying, what should I do to prevent the great war? Blood Moon Pavilion will disappear if Sacred Sakura decides to strike back." Feng Mingyue was twiddling with her fingers. As the Blood Moon Saintess, she felt responsible and had to ensure Blood Moon Pavilion’s survival. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"I accidentally heard a conversation from Sacred Sakura’s disciples through my ice bird around Sacred Mountain. Sacred Sakura Goddess, Miko’s mama, has come out of her seclusion today. Everything depends on her decision." Shui Meiying shook her head, providing one piece of information that might help her saintess friend out of trouble.
"Is that true!? Then, I need to quickly climb the Sacred Mountain to plead and negotiate with Miko’s mama. She is so gentle and benevolent. I’m sure she will-" Feng Mingyue was taken aback, but she soon became enthusiastic as if she could see the light of the problem.
However, Feng Xue suddenly interrupted. "Then, what would you offer, Mingyue? I can’t help much because my identity is Sacred Sakura’s disciple."
"I can fulfil any request. Miko will definitely help me." Feng Mingyue wasn’t sure either, but she stayed positive in her belief.
"Please don’t drag Miko into your request, or you will ruin your friendship with her. She helped you a lot, but the recent incident was massive. She will find it difficult to help you again." Shui Meiying shook her head, giving a kind suggestion.
"That won’t get us anywhere. Suppose the Sacred Sakura Goddess really has come out of her seclusion now. In that case, we must meet Her Divine Grace immediately before those troublesome people flock to greet her. We need to test our luck." Feng Xue prepared to leave.
Ling Guang and her servant sisters immediately helped their lady prepare for a formal meeting, not as the Sacred Sakura people but as the Blood Empress.
"Sister..." Feng Mingyue knew it was also difficult for her sister to help her, but her sister was still there for her.
She finally understood why her eldest sister treated her like a jade in the past, knowing their fate would lead to a similar end. As for now, they had to do something to their father or they would suffer a similar fate as the other talented daughters of Feng Clan.
Their father would receive the punishment he deserved. Still, the Blood Moon Pavilion shouldn’t be involved, let alone a big war between two sacred lands. It had to be avoided at all costs.
A few minutes later, the two Feng sisters immediately left their hut to go to Sacred Mountain in blood-red formal outfits.
"Let’s follow them." Shui Meiying flew up. The Frozen Cloud’s people immediately followed as they also wanted to know the continuation of the matters regarding the Sacred Sakura towards Blood Moon Pavilion.
If a big war were to break out, they would side with Sacred Sakura, including the other allies. Blood Moon Pavilion would be invaded by countless enemies from all directions if Sacred Sakura desired.
