Stepping out of the Hall of the Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons' Transmission of Teachings, the heavy pressure of the imperial palace suddenly dissipated by more than half.

A gentle breeze wafted by, carrying with it the unique aura of the imperial palace. Wang Sheng walked with composure, his gaze serene.

Having just mastered the complete Azure Profound Emperor Technique, his Dao foundation is incredibly stable, and his Quasi-Saint realm foundation has been honed to its limit. He is only one step away from transcending the shackles and ascending to the position of Saint.

He did not rush to return to the Vast Star System. After pondering for a moment, he changed direction and headed towards the palace he had seen earlier, which was covered with white banners.

The air of grief in the palace still lingered after Li Xuan's recent death.

Wang Sheng had a thought: he might as well go and pay his respects to this honest and upright man whom he had always liked, and offer him incense, so as to save face for their acquaintance.

More importantly, he knew in his heart that the palace was home to the twin princesses Xu Qingyi and Xu Qing'er, who were famous throughout the imperial palace.

At a banquet once held by the imperial family, these two twin women, proud and arrogant by nature, once declared in public that they would rather die than marry Wang Sheng, their words full of contempt and disdain, regarding him as an ordinary junior unworthy of being compared to them.

But times have changed.

In a short period of time, the world has changed dramatically.

That nameless junior whom they looked down upon has now risen to become the first non-royal imperial son of the Qingxuan Imperial Clan in countless years, holding the same position as the orthodox imperial son and being as respected as the saints of the heavens. Even the direct descendants of the imperial clan must bow and pay their respects when they see him.

Wang Sheng walked slowly to the front of the palace. White silk ribbons fluttered in the wind, and a solemn atmosphere of mourning swept over him.

Upon seeing Wang Sheng, the maidservants on duty outside the hall immediately changed their expressions and knelt down respectfully, not daring to show the slightest negligence.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

The congratulatory greetings were delivered in unison, echoing throughout the hall.

The two slender figures who had been secretly weeping and grieving inside the hall were startled by the sound. Two graceful figures in white robes walked out, and they were the Xu Qingyi and Xu Qing'er sisters.

The two women were dressed in plain white mourning clothes, their black hair was simple and elegant without any makeup, their eyes were still red from tears, and they looked pitiful and sad. Their beautiful faces, paired with their white mourning clothes, added a touch of breathtaking gentle beauty.

At this moment, however, the arrogance, disdain, and aloofness of the past were gone from the eyes of the two sisters. Instead, they were filled with deep fear, unease, and a cautious attempt to please.

They were acutely aware of the arrogance they had uttered in the past.

How resolute the two of them were back then, preferring death to having any connection with Wang Sheng. Every word they uttered now feels like a slap in the face.

Now, Wang Sheng holds the prestigious position of a prince from a different clan, wielding immense power and enjoying the favor of the Great Emperor and the protection of the Holy Lord. He is a top figure whom they would never dare to provoke.

Given Wang Sheng's current status, if he harbors resentment and seeks revenge, he could easily put the two sisters in a difficult situation with just a word.

Fear and unease gripped their hearts. The two sisters exchanged a glance, quickly composed themselves, and stepped forward, bowing slightly, their voices soft and gentle, filled with utmost respect.

"Qingyi greets His Highness the Imperial Prince."

"Qing'er greets Your Highness the Emperor."

Her voice was soft and melodious, completely devoid of the fierce arrogance of the past.

Wang Sheng's gaze swept lightly over the two women's exquisite faces. He noticed the fear they were trying to conceal and the tenderness they were trying to reveal in their eyes. He understood what was going on, but his expression remained calm. He said in a peaceful tone, "Having heard that Fellow Daoist Li Xuan has perished on the battlefield, I have come to offer incense and pay my respects."

"Thank you for your concern for my husband, Your Highness." Xu Qingyi lowered her eyes, her voice was soft, and her demeanor was extremely gentle.

"It is my husband's honor that you, my lord, can come to pay your respects in person," Xu Qing'er quickly echoed, carefully watching Wang Sheng's expression, afraid of offending him.

The once proud and unyielding twin princes are now as docile as delicate flowers by the water, trying their best to please.

Wang Sheng nodded slightly and walked straight into the mourning hall.

Inside the mourning hall, white candles flickered and incense smoke swirled, with Li Xuan's memorial tablet standing in the center.

Wang Sheng looked solemn as he lit incense and bowed in worship. He sighed inwardly, thinking how precious good people are in times of chaos and war. Li Xuan was upright and humble throughout his life, but in the end, he died on the battlefield. It was truly a pity.

After the worship ceremony, the two women hurriedly stepped forward to offer tea and seats, being extremely careful and gentle throughout, serving the guests with utmost care.

"Your Highness, you must be exhausted from your journey. Please take a seat and rest."

"The palace has prepared fine tea and spiritual fruits, all of which are specialties of the imperial palace. Please, Your Excellency, taste them."

The two sisters, one on each side, attended to Wang Sheng, speaking softly and gently, trying their best to please him, hoping to erase past grievances and have this newly promoted supreme figure forgive and forget.

Wang Sheng accepted it without hesitation or politeness.

He sat upright in the main seat, chatting casually with the two women side by side, his words calm and his demeanor serene. From the regulations of the imperial palace to the situation on the front lines, and then to the customs and traditions of the various realms, the atmosphere became increasingly relaxed.

The two women responded softly and obediently throughout, not daring to disobey in the slightest. The atmosphere in the room was warm and harmonious, with no trace of their past confrontation.

After chatting for a while, Wang Sheng had no intention of staying any longer.

He already had a plan in mind. He urgently needed to return to the Floating Star System, secretly break through to the Saint Realm, and escape everyone's control and scheming.

He immediately stood up, said a brief farewell, turned and left the mournful palace without looking back.

After bidding farewell to the two beauties, Wang Sheng did not linger any longer. He stepped out of the imperial palace, took off into the air, traversed the endless void, and sped towards the distant Fuhua Star System.

The void stretched endlessly, nebulae swirled, and all around was deathly silent.

Wang Sheng moved with incredible speed, his Daoist aura was contained, and his aura was concealed. He seemed to be traveling normally, but in reality, his mind was always on edge.

He knew in his heart that his sudden rise to power and his high position as a prince of a different surname would inevitably affect the interests of countless forces, and there were countless people secretly eyeing him covetously.

Not to mention that the Tai Xuan Imperial Clan has been hunting him down.

Even within the Qingxuan Imperial Clan, there are many who are not convinced by him.

As Wang Sheng traversed a desolate and uninhabited void star field, the entire world suddenly went dark!

Boom!

The void trembled violently, and endless black mist suddenly emerged, sealing off all directions and completely cutting off Wang Sheng's escape routes.

A cold, chilling, and murderous aura instantly enveloped the entire star field.

"Wang Sheng, you brat, stop in your tracks!"

A cold, fierce shout resounded through the void, shattering the nebula!

Several figures clad in black dragon-patterned armor, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura, stepped out from the dark void. Their bodies were imbued with the unique dark Daoist charm of the Tai Xuan Imperial Clan, and their powerful auras indicated that they were all peak Quasi-Saint level experts!

Most terrifyingly, the leader held aloft an ancient, dark, and powerfully imposing treasure with flowing patterns!

The sacred artifact of the Tai Xuan Imperial Clan!

hum!

The immense, domineering pressure of the sacred artifact exploded out!

It was a jet-black bronze spear with ancient patterns, a profound Daoist aura, and a faint divine light. It was a weapon of a saint with profound foundations and boundless power, enough to withstand some of the saint's attacks and suppress all the methods of a quasi-saint!

Recently, the saints of the Tai Xuan Imperial Clan have been engaged in war. One of the saints they sent to hunt down Wang Sheng was also killed by the Qing Xuan Emperor.

Now that someone has revealed Wang Sheng's whereabouts, the Tai Xuan Imperial Clan will not let any opportunity slip by. However, they dare not be careless and send a Saint to take action, fearing it might be a trap set by the Qing Xuan Imperial Clan.

Therefore, they sent several quasi-saints with sacred artifacts to the site.

Sacred artifacts are the life-bound possessions of saints; if they are damaged, it will weaken the saint's strength and cultivation.

Therefore, sacred artifacts are precious, and the power of a single strike is terrifying, enough to kill more than a dozen quasi-saints!

"Hahaha! Qingxuan's newly promoted imperial prince from outside the imperial family? He's nothing but a lucky bastard who relies on the emperor's favor!"

"Our clan received intelligence that you were returning alone; today is your final resting place!"

"I will slay you, seize all your opportunities and achievements, and sever a finger of the Azure Profound Emperor Clan!"

Several quasi-saints, their killing intent soaring, fixed their fierce gazes on Wang Sheng. Their sacred artifacts roared, and endless dark power brewed a devastating killing move, ready to unleash its fury at any moment.

Wang Sheng's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he instantly saw through the truth.

Within the imperial palace, a traitor tipped him off, revealing his return journey!

The Tai Xuan and Qing Xuan imperial clans were already in a state of balance and opposition, with deep-seated conflicts. When the Tai Xuan imperial clan learned that this newly promoted imperial prince was returning alone, they naturally would not let go of this excellent opportunity to intercept and kill him!

Among these people, five were at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, wielding imperial artifacts and possessing overwhelming combat power, enough to kill ordinary Quasi-Saints at the peak. They set up a deadly trap and were confident that they could annihilate Wang Sheng in one fell swoop!

A moment ago, he would have been more wary.

But at this moment!

Wang Sheng's lips curled into a slight smile, and all his hesitation vanished completely.

He had originally planned to quietly return to the main star to pursue further breakthroughs, but now that danger was looming, he had just arrived at the perfect opportunity!

This chaotic world presents a perfect opportunity to ambush and kill, break through to a higher realm in public, and test the methods of a sage!

No need for purple aura, no need for accumulation, in the blink of an eye, with a little effort, one can instantly become a saint!

Om-!

In an instant, Wang Sheng's body erupted with a vast and holy might that suppressed all the heavens!

The invisible laws of the Dao instantly permeated his entire body, shattering shackles and dissolving barriers. Countless Dao patterns surged forth from his body, traversing the void!

Originally stuck at the peak of Quasi-Saint level, his cultivation was unimpeded at this moment, instantly transcending, sublimating, and transforming!

Saint Realm! Achieved!

With a single, simple thought, one can traverse the immeasurable chasm of ages and shatter the shackles of the heavens!

Endless holy light enveloped his body, the laws of heaven and earth bowed in worship, and the surrounding void trembled incessantly.

The terrifying and overwhelming pressure from the Tai Xuan Quasi-Saint and the sacred artifact instantly became insignificant, laughable, and utterly vulnerable in the face of the true power of a Saint!

this moment,

Wang Sheng's body swelled up dramatically.

Planets, stars, and other celestial bodies, like dust, surrounded Wang Sheng.

With each breath he took

The entire starry sky dimmed instantly, and he absorbed all the spiritual energy of the entire starry sky in one gulp.

Even the entire galaxy seemed too small in Wang Sheng's eyes, as if he could cross it in a single step!

"What?!"

The five Tai Xuan Quasi-Saints' pupils shrank sharply, their faces filled with utter horror, and they froze on the spot as if struck by lightning!

"Quasi-Saint...instantly becoming a Saint? How is that possible!"

"No cosmic purple aura! No accumulation of knowledge through seclusion! To achieve sainthood in a single thought?!"

Their eyes widened in horror, their minds completely collapsed, and their faces were filled with disbelief.

This is an anomaly that defies the rules of the universe!

Before they could even react, Wang Sheng casually struck out with his palm!

boom!

A simple palm print descended from the sky, without any fancy supernatural powers, only the pure aura of a saint!

boom!

The first-ranked Tai Xuan Quasi-Saint was instantly shattered, his soul annihilated, and he didn't even have time to scream!

The sacred artifacts in their hands were suppressed before they could even be activated.

The void trembled, and the Milky Way dimmed!

The remaining few peak-level Tai Xuan Quasi-Saints were no match for the absolute combat power of a Saint. They were all crushed and annihilated with a single palm strike, leaving no trace of their bodies!

In the blink of an eye, the ambushers were all wiped out!

"Too weak!"

"Why couldn't you hold out a little longer and let me test just how powerful a saint really is!"

Wang Sheng shook his head slightly and said.

After enduring countless hardships, he finally became a saint!

From then on, he was no longer a pawn to be manipulated and schemed against!

Wang Sheng raised his hand and grabbed the sacred artifact of the Tai Xuan Emperor Clan from mid-air, holding it in his palm.

The sacred spear felt warm to the touch, ancient and heavy, and was instantly refined by his saintly Daoist aura, becoming completely his own.

"A traitor within the imperial palace, a murderous intent from Tai Xuan! I will remember this debt."

Wang Sheng's eyes turned slightly cold, and his words echoed in the void.

He did not publicize his breakthrough to the Saint realm. Instead, he concealed all Saint aura and suppressed his cultivation back to the Quasi-Saint realm. His aura remained normal, as if he had never broken through.

Having done everything, he moved swiftly, silently piercing through the void, and returned to the Floating Splendor Star System.

Upon his return, Wang Sheng claimed to the outside world that he was exhausted from the journey and would immediately go into seclusion to cultivate himself, refusing all visitors.

No one in the Qi family dared to question it in the slightest. They respectfully guarded the secluded place, setting up layers of defenses so that no one dared to disturb it.

Time flies, and years slip by unnoticed.

Several years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On the border of the entire glacial galaxy, war suddenly erupted!

The Holy Light Civilization has dispatched several legions of angels to launch a massive invasion!

Countless angel warships stretched across the starry sky, and a dense army of angels covered the entire expanse. Billions of holy lights illuminated the star field, and countless top angel kings were stationed in the army. The killing intent was overwhelming, and the flames of war spread across the starry sky, heading straight for the Floating Glory Star System!

The war is critical, and the entire star system is in turmoil!

Upon receiving the battle report, the Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons, far away in the Azure Profound Realm, immediately led the Azure Profound Imperial Clan army across the void to rush to the aid of the Floating Flower Star System!

A massive army pressed in, celestial light filled the sky, and divine might was awe-inspiring.

The Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons stood at the head of the starship, his gaze majestic as he surveyed the flames of war ahead, his mind already fully prepared.

He still regards Wang Sheng as the sharpest piece on the chessboard, the one most suitable for charging into battle.

Wang Sheng's achievements in slaying the Angel Legion and slaughtering the Angel King are known throughout the world. He is a fierce warrior and is best suited for frontal assaults to wear down the enemy's main force.

The Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons' gaze was deep, and he had already made up his mind.

In this great battle, Wang Sheng was appointed as the vanguard general, leading the charge to the front lines and facing the endless army of angels. He was tasked with assassinating the enemy's numerous top-tier angel kings. With his abilities, he exhausted the elite forces of the Holy Light Civilization and took on the most dangerous first round of battle for the Qingxuan Imperial Clan!

In his eyes, Wang Sheng was still that quasi-saint descendant who needed to rely on the protection of the imperial family, was subject to the overall situation and the game of chess, and was at his mercy in his plans and schemes.

however,

When the clan decree was passed to the first main star, the ancestral land of the Qi family.

As Wang Sheng stepped out of the First Main Star and into the Star Battlefield...

The sage's might was vast and boundless, pervading the starry sky.

The entire hall fell silent!

Countless creatures in the starry sky were shocked!

All the sages turned around and looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise.

That imperial prince from another clan actually became a saint!

"How did you become a saint?"

When the Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons saw Wang Sheng, his pupils contracted, and he was shocked.
