You have TWO (2) medias. An emissive one and a scattering one.

You reduced the density of the emissive media that should not be used in 
this case.
I realy don't know why you added that emissive media. I don't know why 
you keep it as it's not needed at all.

You did NOT reduce the density of your scattering media, and that is 
your problem.
