If weak, it would be fine; the various forces in the old land might still compete with each other, and there might be a chance to breathe.
But unfortunately, the Source Star is very powerful.
As long as the strong ones in the old land arenât foolish, they will likely unite to deal with him first, rather than causing internal strife.
Facing a multitude of Twelfth Realm cultivators, Wang Sheng couldnât guarantee the outcome.
So he had to make more preparations.
Whether it means becoming stronger or preparing backup plans.
Causing chaos within the old land could largely disrupt those strong onesâ plans and also enhance his own strength.
Therefore, Wang Sheng wouldnât give up.
As long as the plan to invade Newborn Land from the old land isnât canceled, he and some of the strong ones from the old land would be natural enemies.
Even once those planning to open the passage succeed, it would likely face all the Twelfth Realm strong ones from the old land.
Newborn Land, the benefits are too great!
As early as when the old landâs plan began, as long as neither world produced a decisive strong one, they were natural enemies.
Even harsher than cross-border wars.
Of course, he also knew that wanting to invade the old land was very difficult.
He had anticipated rejection long ago, and didnât expect Feng and Jin to risk their lives merely at his suggestion.
After being rejected, he said calmly, "So, you donât want to participate, luckily I anticipated this, therefore thereâs a second plan?"
"Second choice?" Feng looked at Wang Sheng, somewhat puzzled, why go to such lengths if you knew youâd be rejected? Then he suddenly thought of something, "Daoist, do you want us to aid you?"
Feng recalled the time he forcefully made others "invest" in his affairs.
Is this fellow daoist also thinking along those lines?
A Twelfth Realm cultivator, still so shameless?
But considering this personâs strength, he was conflicted about whether to give some treasures...
After all, being Twelfth Realm, Wang Sheng didnât use telepathy, so he naturally didnât know what Feng and Jin were thinking, and continued to say, "No need for things, just wondering if you have heard of âcourtesy before forceâ?"
Since it was using spirit communication, Feng and Jin instantly understood Wang Shengâs thoughts.
Then they acted without hesitation.
"Celestial Locking Star Array, activate!"
Feng roared, and instantly, the galaxy appeared.
The originally idyllic Secret Realm Space was filled with Celestial Stars, forming a special array.
A strong sense of confinement emerged.
Not to be outdone, Jin instantly conjured countless rings composed of mysterious texts, aiming to confine Wang Sheng within.
Both unleashed their strongest means simultaneously, intending to confine Wang Sheng in an instant.
âCourtesy before forceâ naturally meant using force.
Rather than letting others strike first, it was better for them to act first.
"Feng, will our means work?" Watching Wang Sheng disappear within the array and his sealing ring, Jin spoke.
"Whether itâs my array or your sealing ring, these are the strongest confinement methods, sealing body, sealing soul, sealing everything, especially in our home ground. If caught, even if Twelfth Realm, they will become ordinary beings, and wonât fail." Feng was very confident, as this time, they were in their home ground, allowing the arrayâs effects to be maximized.
Jin seemed still worried: "But our means arenât without weaknesses..."
Facing Jinâs concerns, Feng knew he held considerable responsibility, hence he could only sigh and continue saying, "Ah, I taught you caution, but need not be overly cautious. Our means indeed have defects, but unless other cultivators mastering Space Dao surpass us by at least fifty percent, they wonât have a chance to break free."
"And surpassing us by fifty percent, do you know what kind of realm that is? Itâs at least the realm of a top forceâs leader, and those five people, I know them well. None of them cultivate Space Dao."
Space Dao is their cultivation path.
Forbidden Palace is their creation using their mastery of Space Dao.
This is their most confident path, not believing thereâs anyone in the old land who can surpass them.
At this moment, Wang Sheng felt the means Feng and Jin employed to lock him and laughed: "Bloodless lacks proficiency; I hadnât seen that his cultivation means actually involve space. Now I see clearly; a flawed cultivation system, perhaps I can take some references."
At this realm, the Space Dao he could carry had reached its limit.
But that doesnât mean it canât continue to elevate.
Therefore, he never stopped collecting treasures related to space.
Unexpectedly, coming here to subjugate a world had such a delightful surprise.
Though not strong, the direction is quite unique, significantly benefiting him.
Of course, now wasnât the time to consider these matters.
"If it were other Twelfth Realm cultivators, I might have to exert significant effort, but if itâs cultivating Space Dao..."
Wang Sheng extended his hand, seemingly squeezing subsequently.
Crack!
In an instant, Fengâs array shattered.
"Utilizing Space Dao to set up an array, for me, itâs no different from the outside world."
The means were impressive, but unfortunately, meant nothing in his eyes.
Next was the Sealing Ring.
Wang Sheng casually grabbed the Sealing Ring, with an effortless tug, he held it in his hand.
"An interesting application method, merging Space Dao with Spirit Dao, sealing divine souls, causing the enemy to lose the application of power, without understanding it, one would suffer greatly, wouldnât you say... Feng and Jin!"
As Wang Sheng acted, the veil dissipated, Wang Sheng reappeared.
But at this moment, Feng and Jinâs expressions were very unpleasant.
They hadnât held back, directly unleashing their strongest means, only to be easily broken.
Even the leaders of the five top forces couldnât achieve that.
Then thereâs only one possibility, that the mysterious person they found truly mastered Space Dao by more than fifty percent, or even more.
Otherwise, achieving such ease would be impossible.
âStill want to continue?â
Feng hesitated internally.
Though they used their strongest means, it didnât mean they lost their combat ability.
Yet he calmed down soon.
Someone capable of easily breaking their means wasnât someone they could handle.
"Your excellency is very powerful, we concede, we are willing to assist your excellency, but we need to know your true purpose, just tell us, and there are no other demands."
Feng swiftly made a decision, Jin had always been under Fengâs lead, naturally wouldnât oppose.
Seeing them concede, Wang Sheng had no intention of further action, but said, "Isnât my true purpose already told to you, to conquer the old land? Do you think Iâm deceiving you?"
Feng: "..."
Jin: "..."
"Is your excellency joking? Conquering the old land only incurs disputes, without gaining any benefits; the worldâs advancement has long been restricted; even if conquering other worlds, thereâs no way to gain benefits from world advancement; purely conquering the old land is useless."
Old landâs cross-border wars could stop, the fundamental reason being the inability to gain benefits from cross-border wars.
Otherwise, the old land would still remain in warfare later.
Feng didnât believe Wang Sheng would do something useless.
Wang Sheng chuckled, saying, "Who told you Iâm from the old land? You should also know about Newborn Land, right?"
Feng was momentarily stunned, then quickly thought of something.
"Are you a strong one from Newborn Land?"
"Newborn Land, Source Star, Wang Sheng." Wang Sheng didnât plan to hide, "Your old land aims to invade Newborn Land, naturally we can also do the same, the conflict between both sides is unavoidable, why canât I ignite it in advance to gain benefits? Oh, and I forgot to ask you; are you involved?"
As soon as entering the Secret Realm, Wang Sheng had sealed the realm, not fearing they would escape and leak information.
If they were involved, it might not be bad for him.
Feng didnât know Wang Shengâs plan, immediately denied: "No, we only know, we donât know the risks and donât intend to get involved, just planning to drink soup from the sidelines."
Wang Sheng understood his meaning.
Simply saying they didnât want to risk.
However, this time, they couldnât escape: "Now youâve learned my purpose, whatâs your choice?"
Choice?
Feng sighed again, such a big secret told, their choice is quite evident, isnât it?
"We are willing to join your ranks..."
