Or perhaps we could exchange...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Xuan Yuan didn’t refuse directly, but instead said, \"Exchange? Naturally, but no need to exchange treasures. Submit to me, and all your territories will belong to me. I may then lend the Source Pen to you for a look. Otherwise, no discussions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had racked his brain to return to the Old Land Starry Sky, not due to some nostalgia for his homeland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such things never existed from the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to those things, he had a more important purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Old Land Starry Sky’s strength hadn’t changed much, achieving this purpose wouldn’t be too difficult. But now, a Thirteen Realms cultivator suddenly emerged, with considerable strength, severely disrupting his plans. If he could subdue this Thirteen Realms, everything would fall into place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, his words were also meant to probe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was testing the other person’s understanding of the Thirteen Realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any realm is the same; the longer you remain after a breakthrough, the deeper your understanding becomes. The Thirteen Realms is especially unique, magnifying this trait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one doesn’t understand enough...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Hehe!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuan Yuan chuckled inwardly, ready to act at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Wang Sheng easily discerned Xuan Yuan’s intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even guessed at some of Xuan Yuan’s return motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thirteen Realms is unique, able to enhance through cosmic status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And status, to some extent, is linked to territory. If one submits, it’s basically severing their path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, as a Thirteen Realms, no one would agree to such a demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His cultivation didn’t heavily rely on status, but he wouldn’t agree either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems, fellow Daoist, you’re not willing to hand over the Source Pen. How can a Thirteen Realms give up their power?

After all, anything is possible in the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with Wang Sheng’s emergence as a Thirteen Realms, those concerns faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not because the Thirteen Realms threat disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unless he’s willing to give up the vast territory of the Old Land Starry Sky, abandon his chance to grow stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the battle must be fought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it must be won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Thirteen Realms, once in conversation, began fighting instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terror-inducing aura flooded across two starry skies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, enormous shadows seemed to arise in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A body-wide fear, urging them instinctively to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The farther from the center of the aura, the better; otherwise, there was no chance of survival—a feeling present in the hearts of all beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter where or in what state, this fear was palpable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even cultivators in closed-door training were compelled to awaken, disregarding their own conditions, and instinctively wanted to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such anomalies naturally sparked widespread discussions across the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t only living beings affected; even some communication methods failed, as if signaling the end of the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Virtual World network remained operational.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is this aura? Why, as an Eleventh Realm Saint, do I feel terror like a child before it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget Eleventh Realm; even the Twelve Realm Saint Emperor in our family has awoken, seemingly intending to flee with us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s happening at the center of this aura? Why such terrifying aura—could it be that a True Saint is angry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given such immense phenomena, they could only think of a True Saint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps it’s not a True Saint in anger.
