Chapter 934: Chapter 935: Masters of Acting

“Last words? Hmph, Emperor of the Huaxia Empire, do you know just how ridiculous your words sound?” Yan Wudi sneered, not holding Lin Qian’s Heavenly Emperor golden figure in any regard, “The Star Control Realm is not the same for everyone.”

“The Star Control Realm, mastering the stars, though these people are in the Star Control Realm, they have not truly mastered the stars.”

As he spoke, Yan Wudi slightly raised his right hand, a virtual image of a planet coalesced in his palm—it was none other than the capital planet of the Hundred Battle Border Country, the Hundred Battle Star.

Everyone present could clearly feel that this planet’s virtual image wasn’t formed of soul energy, but rather contained a rich force of the stars.

Lan Ning and the others, hearing Yan Wudi’s words, had their expressions change drastically: “You actually succeeded? Mastering the stars, you were clearly just… how could you possibly succeed?”

Not only Lan Ning, but the other seven were also in disbelief.

The Creation Realm, built on the foundation of the World Realm, involves creating a world within one’s dantian, shaping it into a world suitable for oneself, allowing the soul energy to blend in, resulting in a surge in power, different from before.

The Star Control Realm then goes on to form the sun, moon, and stars in this world, a power naturally extraordinary.

But this isn’t the limit of the Star Control Realm. The truly powerful Star Control Realm achieves what Yan Wudi did, mastering stars.

Whether it’s the dantian world formed by the Creation Realm or the sun, moon, and stars formed within, it’s ultimately false, not real.

At this realm, the soul martial artist hasn’t grasped enlightenment or mastered the rules of heaven and earth to form a genuine world.

But a Star Control Realm like Yan Wudi’s controls the stars and becomes their master, able to harness the power of the stars as his own in battle.

This is the pinnacle of the Star Control Realm, mastering real stars, with star power imbued in the soul energy.

The stronger the stars you control, the stronger you become.

“In that case, isn’t my master even more formidable?” Thinking of this, Lin Qian couldn’t help but recall that his master, Wei Wushuang, was the star domain master of the Sea Spiral Star Domain, and with so many stars in this domain, just how powerful would he be?

Controlling stars is not easy, gaining the recognition of a star’s will is extremely difficult.

Especially with these mundane lower-realm stars, most are ignorant, without emotion or intellect, naturally making recognition much harder.

Therefore, to become a Star Control Realm who can master stars, not only must one have exceptional strength, they must also have the opportunity of great perseverance, neither can be absent.

A Star Control Realm with mastery over stars is starkly different, their strength worlds apart.

“These people, with my help, have all mastered stars. But as for you, you’re merely eight guys without star mastery, do you think you could be a match for me?” Yan Wudi’s eyes were full of confidence, victory assured.

On the other side, Liu Shuiyuan and others also sneered like Yan Wudi, gently raising their right hands with star images floating in their palms.

This group, without exception, had truly mastered stars.

Lan Ning and the others’ faces immediately clouded over; the power the others displayed far exceeded their own, utterly unimaginable.

No wonder Yan Wudi is so fearless and set on them, this is why.

“And you, Emperor of the Huaxia Empire, though I don’t understand the divine mystery of this body you’ve condensed, I presume its combat strength isn’t much, right?” Yan Wudi spread his hands upon seeing Lin Qian’s Heavenly Emperor golden figure, “So, how will you save these trusted subordinates? Who would’ve thought, these top powers of the Sea Spiral Star Domain, having just submitted to you, are about to perish, how pitiful.”

“How about this, if you all switch allegiance, I can not only spare your lives but also help you master stars, how about it?”

Yan Wudi’s words were blatant temptation.

“Hmph!” The figure in the dark robe on the other side snorted coldly.

To Yan Wudi’s words, Lan Ning and the others exchanged glances, revealing the hesitation in each other’s eyes, seemingly considering his offer.

Yan Wudi wasn’t in a hurry, leisurely watching Lin Qian’s difficult expression: “No need to rush, think about it carefully, can the Emperor of the Huaxia Empire offer you the opportunities to master stars?”

“Let me tell you, besides mastering stars, you’ll each receive a saint-grade cultivation technique!” Shortly after, Yan Wudi dropped another bomb, intensifying the lure.

The classification of grades on the Soul Martial Star is niche, unable to integrate into these vast worlds.

Because of this, realizing the classification of soul devices, cultivation techniques, and more in the myriad worlds, Lin Qian really spread this knowledge rapidly over the Huaxia Empire’s territory to connect with the myriad worlds.

A necessary precondition for rapid development is not to be too out of touch.

From high to low: Immortal, Dao, Saint, Heavenly, Earth, Xuan, Huang—in the past, the highest on the Soul Martial Star was no more than upper Xuan grade.

The cultivation techniques Lan Ning and others once practiced mostly fell within the Earth grade category, and yet here Yan Wudi speaks of a saint-grade technique that, even if lower, would have driven them mad in the past.

It’s important to know that saint-grade techniques are rare in the entire myriad worlds.

Seeing the hesitance in everyone’s expressions, Yan Wudi remained composed, confident they wouldn’t refuse his temptation.

He had no choice; now, with the Hundred Battle Alliance retreating step by step, despite his strong power, if he doesn’t have enough support, the counterattack will lack manpower.

If he could recruit these people, they’d surely bring their clan’s support. Ceasing the fight doesn’t violate his heart demon oath either.

“You’re talking too much to them.” Finally, the Netherworld Clan member beside Yan Wudi grew impatient and beckoned him, “Don’t give them too much time to consider, ten breaths without an answer, attack directly.”

Yan Wudi nodded slightly, looking toward Lan Ning’s side: “If that’s the case, give me an answer within ten breaths, ten…”

“No need for that.” At this moment, Lin Qian, via the Heavenly Emperor golden figure, suddenly regained his normal expression and beckoned to Yan Wudi, “Think about it, thanks to your excessive talking.”

At the same time, the previously struggling and hesitant expressions of Lan Ning and the others suddenly calmed, desiring nothing.

They all looked mockingly at Yan Wudi, Lan Ning even spoke up: “Do you think I’d betray my great-grandson-in-law? We’re family, after all.”

“Old Kuang, do you think my earlier performance of a conflicted struggle put on a good act?” Mu Yan chuckled, looking at Kuang Luantian.

“Perfect!” Kuang Luantian raised his right arm of solid muscle and gave him a thumbs up.

Lin Qian also glanced at Mu Yan, smiling: “Speaking of which, Chief Mu, you might try acting in films sometime, a nice way to relax amidst cultivation, you know.”
