He had returned.
After hiding the Nine Dragon Imperial Tomb within a shattered fragment star resembling the "Ninefold Hell," Li Tianming, Ye Lingfeng, and Li Qingyu set out on their journey home, flying bodily through the stars with Soulfiend—the only one unable to enter the Companion Space.
The Nine Dragon Imperial Tomb used stellar source energy absorbed by the "Azurecloud Divinewood Seed." Its energy was insufficient, but it was better suited for concealment.
With their Heavenly Starwheel bodies, they sped through the vast starry sky. The blazing sun before them drew ever closer!
Though Li Tianming had once conquered the geniuses of the Divine Ruins-class world in the Daoxuan Stellar Domain, he had truly seen only two stellar source worlds with his own eyes.
Compared to the dreamy, elegant Violetglory Star, the "Sun" of the Land of Order was ferocious, scorching, and violent. Even from far away, one could feel the high heat of that great fireball surging over and searing one's skin crimson.
Returning once more felt like a lifetime apart.
The sunfire reflected upon Li Tianming's face, making his eyes seem to burn with blazing flames as well.
Thinking back to the battle at Myriad Dragons Divine Mountain, the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect had relied on the ancestral Dragon Emperor within the First Dragon Cave to defy fate and turn defeat into victory amid the Yinlong Hall of the Order Celestial Clan's scheming conquest. That battle had been stirring and magnificent, worthy of an epic.
Yet the shackles on Li Wudi's body, his life and death, remained a thorn in Li Tianming's heart.
"Now that I'm back, I'll definitely pull out this thorn!"
He knew perfectly well who his opponent was.
That Emperor-class powerhouse who ruled the Land of Order and possessed nine tribulations—the "Sun Emperor," also known as
