Stronger from Earth

"How do you know all this?"

Looking at Wang Xuan, who seemed assured of victory, the Fifth Holy Spirit felt a near hopeless despair.

In front of Wang Xuan, she was like a child being toyed with, completely powerless to resist.

Even though she didn’t want to reveal any information, her opponent still managed to extract what he wanted and simultaneously crushed her spirit and will.

"What’s your plan? Tell me," Wang Xuan asked again.

At that moment, the Fifth Holy Spirit felt disoriented, an unusual feeling of betrayal towards Canglan rising in her heart.

Whether she spoke or not, whether she was willing or not, he could still obtain the information from her.

Would it make any difference if she said it herself?

The Fifth Holy Spirit knew that even without her consent, her opponent had already turned her into a traitor.

Whether or not she wanted to betray Canglan Realm.

But when did she betray, and how? Why was she, the person involved, completely unaware!!!

Wang Xuan ignored the mental collapse of the Fifth Holy Spirit and continued to inquire about what he wanted, gradually forming a picture of Canglan Realm in his mind.

It was a world with deep roots and a long legacy. In the era when Canglan True God existed, Canglan Realm even controlled over a dozen Life Planets.

Back then, True-tier Creatures roamed the Star Sea proudly, exploring the endless cosmos, and Canglan Realm, as a stronghold, was full of vitality.

But with the departure of Canglan True God, Life Source Star of Canglan Realm lacked a True God’s suppression, causing a steep decline in the maximum capacity and number of cultivators it could support.

In the last million years, forget Immortal Creatures, even the Star Lords numbered only five, and there were only a few dozen Grotto Void, all thanks to Canglan Realm’s deep roots.

"If Canglan Realm were just an ordinary level 3.5 world, besides the opportunity of the Realm Gate, there wouldn’t be many things catching my eye."

"But now, seeing the legacy of the True God, Canglan Realm still has many opportunities worth exploring."

Wang Xuan’s thoughts rose. If he hadn’t captured the Fifth Holy Spirit, he wouldn’t have learned this information so quickly.

The True God legacy of Canglan Realm would tempt even Immortal Creatures, yet only he knew of it now.

Wang Xuan grabbed the Fifth Holy Spirit and flew towards the spatial area of Canglan Realm’s Realm Gate.

His speed and agility made even the Fifth Holy Spirit, who prided herself in this aspect, feel ashamed.

She really couldn’t tell what Cultivation Realm the opponent was at or what path he cultivated, only feeling he was unfathomably deep.

"After you sealed the Realm Gate, are you able to investigate the situation here?" Wang Xuan asked.

The Fifth Holy Spirit remained silent, trying to make a last struggle with an indifferent attitude.

Wang Xuan grabbed her snow-white, smooth waist, gradually moving his touch upward, and said coldly, "You think by not speaking, I wouldn’t know?"

Even if she didn’t speak, he could know through time retracing.

However, the time and Immortal Source consumption would surge as the tracing scope expanded, so knowing through the Fifth Holy Spirit would be preferable.

The Fifth Holy Spirit’s body trembled like an electric shock. She knew she couldn’t resist his actions nor prevent him from acquiring information. Remaining silent brought her no benefit, only suffering.

"Once the Realm Gate is sealed, external forces can’t detect anything happening here," the Fifth Holy Spirit glared at Wang Xuan. "Take your hand away!"

"Let’s see how you perform," Wang Xuan said again, "Once sealed, you can’t enter or exit at will. How did you come in and how to leave?"

The Fifth Holy Spirit trembled as she spoke, "I have a Secret Technique to sense with the Trident. Once the Saint Master knows, he will move the Trident to unlock the seal. Take your hand away, or I won’t say anything."

Wang Xuan moved his hand down from her collarbone, saying calmly, "I didn’t expect a million-year-old woman to be so well-maintained."

The Fifth Holy Spirit was so furious her hair almost stood on end, wishing she could bite him. Full of resentment, she said, "I never maintain myself, and I’m not old!"

This guy looked like a young man, but his strength was terrifying. He must be an ancient monster.

Maybe he’s lived tens of millions of years already, yet he dares call me old? That’s too much.

"This old man is in his prime at thirty," Wang Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, "Saying you’re old can’t be too much, can it?"

"Hmph." The Fifth Holy Spirit had never seen such a brazen man.

At the Realm Gate, Wang Xuan’s consciousness probed everything around him, confirming the Alien Race hadn’t arranged anything here before pondering his next actions.

Though he had captured the Fifth Holy Spirit, her identity and status would be maximized only back in Canglan Realm.

If the Saint Master or other Holy Spirits realized something was amiss and suspected the Fifth Holy Spirit, this pawn would be useless.

But how could he completely control the Fifth Holy Spirit, making her genuinely submit and willingly do his bidding?

She wasn’t afraid of death nor craved power; otherwise, she wouldn’t have rushed into the Realm Gate space.

Didn’t the Saint Master and other Holy Spirits lack even the willingness to risk entry?

However, her love and care for the believers of Canglan Realm was sincere and selfless.

Since becoming a Holy Spirit, she cared for those believers like a Holy Mother, never watching them suffer or die.

"Fifth Holy Spirit, you wouldn’t want the Saint Master and others to know you betrayed the Divine Teachings, would you?" Wang Xuan suddenly said.

"I didn’t betray..." The Fifth Holy Spirit started but lacked confidence because, whether or not she cooperated, the opponent had gathered much information from her.

The fact of leaking information was as clear as day, and she couldn’t change it.

"Just kill me." The Fifth Holy Spirit was heartbroken.

Yes, she betrayed the Divine Teachings and the True God.

In the eyes of the Saint Master and other Holy Spirits, she was probably seen as a complete traitor.

To Canglan Divine Sect, she could never return.

Wang Xuan suddenly said coldly, "Countless strong men from Earth are an invincible force. Breaking Canglan Realm is but a flick of the wrist. When the Realm Gate opens, it’ll be the day of Canglan Realm’s downfall!"

"No! You cannot do that!" the Fifth Holy Spirit forced herself to say, "We have Canglan True God’s protection. You will fail."

Killing intent emanated freely from Wang Xuan, and he said coldly, "Canglan True God hasn’t returned for a million years; likely, he’s already fallen. Even if not, he won’t return for another thirty or fifty thousand years. In today’s Canglan Realm, the high-level forces consist merely of one Void Realm, a few Star Lords, and Grotto Void cultivators. I can annihilate them with a mere wave."

He stared into the Fifth Holy Spirit’s eyes, like a demon slaughtering all beings: "If you dare resist, I will massacre every creature in Canglan Realm, killing until mountains of corpses and oceans of blood, until the realm is drenched in red!"

"No, you can’t do that!"

The Fifth Holy Spirit suddenly knelt, pleading with Wang Xuan: "Please don’t do that. What fault do those believers have? They only wish to protect their home and their beliefs. Don’t kill them."

She clung to Wang Xuan’s leg, tears streaming down her delicate face: "Whatever you want, whatever you want me to do, I’m willing to do it! I’m willing to give you everything I have, just spare them, I beg of you."

The spirit of the Fifth Holy Spirit had completely shattered, and she had long forgotten her identity, forgotten she was a powerful Star Lord. All she could do was plead for mercy with her frail body towards Wang Xuan.
