With cascading starlight and moonlight flowing like a river, Wang Xuan strolled along a quiet starry path, feeling the vastness of the universe and the beauty of the starry sky.

It was quiet here, free from the hustle and bustle of the world. He was the only one moving forward, with thin white smoke rising from the starry path, like a dream, peaceful and serene.

Gradually, a hazy outline appeared in the distance. It was Golden Book and Jade Scroll, extremely large, standing there, with its front connected to the mortal world and its back connected to the immortal realm.

Wang Xuan opened his Spiritual Heavenly Eye and could see clearly that only one page of gold paper and one page of jade paper in the Golden Book and Jade Scroll were physical entities; the other pages were constructed from rules.

No one dares to underestimate it. Even if only a single page of the Golden Book and Jade Scroll appears in a certain place, it can communicate with the original and mobilize boundless power.

Wang Xuan passed through the door and walked all the way to the Golden Book and Jade Scroll. He stood in a daze, as if he could evolve the world and manage the immortal realm.

"This time it's done. The Golden Book and Jade Scroll have imprisoned him. Everyone, who is willing to go? We should head over now."

"Let's go together. I can't wait. Let me see who this Lu Renjia is, so arrogant."

A group of people set off together, some of whom were eager to get involved, such as Black Crane and Roc, who were all victims.

As for the person in question, Zhuo Yanran, her black dress fluttered in the night sky as she rushed towards the starlight, eager to settle scores with that person.

Others were also emotional, after all, everyone was in an uproar. Of course, many people didn't participate; they mainly went to watch and join in the fun.

"Brother, hurry to the Golden Book and Jade Scroll battlefield in the Mysterious Sea corresponding to the Otherworld. Black Crane, Great Roc, and the others are about to make their move. Let me tell you, this time..."

"Tianwu, there's news you might be interested in: Zhuo Yanran has gone berserk and is about to engage in a decisive battle!"

In a short time, many people sent messages to their friends and acquaintances, telling them to find a way to get to the scene of the showdown.

In this area, the descendants of the supernatural beings soared into the sky, and a portal appeared in the starry sky. Everyone entered one after another.

The Golden Book and Jade Scroll materialized, forming a vast and boundless outline, flowing with Supreme Texture, exuding an awe-inspiring pressure, and becoming a world of its own.

Zhuo Yanran was the first to arrive, standing in the vast battlefield of Golden Book and Jade Scroll, searching for her opponent.

"Don't rush," Ye Lin advised, her friend was too anxious this time and couldn't calm down.

A group of people arrived, but where are they? They haven't been found.

"Outside the Golden Book and Jade Scroll and jade scroll, in the hazy area at the edge, stands Dao Body. Could it be him? Strange, he hasn't actually entered the battlefield."

"Hello, are you Lu Renjia?" someone called out.

Wang Xuan looked ahead. The distance was a bit far, but he could still make out a general idea: a group of creatures of various races, including humans, rocs, Mechanical Monster, and even a dog? Or perhaps a wolf.

A very beautiful girl with a pure face and clear eyes, but when she saw him, her eyes blazed with fury, and her gaze was like a knife stabbing at him.

Calling her innocent might not be entirely accurate, because Wang Xuan noticed that when she got angry, her breathing became rapid and her curves were very pronounced. He hadn't realized it before, but her figure under her black dress was surprisingly voluptuous.

When Wang Xuan nodded, acknowledging his identity, the girl was furious. Heavenly Fire erupted from her body, and she immediately pointed at him, demanding a duel.

The main reason is that there is a faint light barrier between them, which separates them. Otherwise, she would have already attacked. That area is divided by the rules.

"Is he Lu Renjia?" The others also looked unfriendly. They had finally seen the real culprit, the guy who had ruined them all.

In the starry sky, outside the battlefield of the Golden Book and Jade Scroll, Wang Xuan stood quietly, facing a group of young men and women of great importance, watching them calmly.

"Interesting. The Golden Book and Jade Scroll are the embodiment of rules, and the way things are handled is fairly. Without the consent of both parties, we will not appear together and cannot fight."

Wang Xuan nodded, as he was most afraid that there might be something wrong with the Golden Book and Jade Scroll.

"Lu Renjia, you despicable, shameless, and vile slave! Fairy Zhuo intended to rescue you, but you repaid kindness with enmity and provoked everyone." This was a victim, who was in the sea at the time, covered in stench, and wanted to personally intervene.

"My poor pot of delicious soup, with all sorts of potent medicines and the rare main ingredient, the divine fish, is all ruined!" Black Crane sighed, expressing his regret and dissatisfaction.

"The bottle flew right past me, and a foul stench splashed out!" Dapeng was filled with resentment.

"Alas, I was exploring the void rift underwater when the Bronze Bottle fell and splashed all over my face the moment I returned to the surface, turning the entire sky gray... Lu Renjia, you come here right now, I'm going to skin you alive!"

A group of people were emotional.

Wang Xuan nodded and said, "It really was a very enjoyable night."

Was this a provocation? He remained unusually calm in front of so many people, and then gave this kind of summary at the end.

"I understand now. It's all because the girls around you are carelessly leaving things lying around," Wang Xuan said again, trying to clear his name.

He continued, "I must clarify that I am not a slave. I am a human, from the stars, and I have not submitted to the sea race. This can be verified by the Golden Book and Jade Scroll."

Instantly, the Golden Book and Jade Scroll glowed, and countless stars appeared nearby, surrounding Wang Xuan and draping him in a dazzling radiance, making him appear incomparably sacred.

"I am not a slave, I have not served the sea tribe, what I have said is true." The Golden Book and Jade Scroll emitted an emotionless voice, announcing the result to everyone.

Many people were taken aback; in essence, they had wronged this person.

"I, Lu Renjia, value my reputation highly and will not tolerate any slander. You should all apologize to me," Wang Xuan said.

Many people were speechless. They had been so disgusted by him that they had to apologize to him.

"Of course, I know you're not convinced, and some of you may even feel indignant. But whatever, I'm magnanimous. Sometimes the truth is just that hard to accept. I'm here today to make friends through martial arts and exchange skills with you all. After the competition, this matter will be over."

Wang Xuan was calm and didn't seem to care much, making the group feel like they were punching cotton. They came with great momentum, but it turned out that they had misunderstood him first.

"That's not right. Whether it's right or wrong is between you and Zhuo Yanran. I didn't provoke you, yet I've been splattered with your stench. Who can I complain to?!"

Wang Xuan nodded and said, "Alright, let's have a duel then. There's nothing new under the starry sky. All grudges and affections will eventually lead to a grand showdown of extraordinary forces. Come on."

"I'll fight you first!" Zhuo Yanran said, wanting to be the first to step into the arena and let him establish a fair battleground.

Wang Xuan shook his head and said, "This whole thing started because of you. You've ruined me. Now you want me to fight you? First..."

He almost blurted out the words "pay appearance fee in advance," but thankfully he stopped himself at the crucial moment, otherwise he would have ended up like Kong Xuan, the Second King of Five Elements Mountain.

He changed his tune, saying, "The scripture you gave me earlier had a problem. If you want me to forgive you and discuss it with you, please complete the scripture for me."

He was still asking for the scriptures, but he found an objective reason: he said that his body had developed some problems from practicing the scriptures.

"What scriptures did you give him?" someone asked.

"The Star River Cleansing Body Scripture," Zhuo Yanran murmured.

"Hiss!" A group of people gasped. This scripture was very difficult to master, and there would be trouble if the scripture was not fully mastered.

Zhuo Yanran has a complete first part, but as for the second part, it belongs to the legends and has been lost to all the great extraordinary people.

However, mastering the complete first part resolves the hidden problems and establishes a self-consistent cycle. The second part is an advanced version, including the methods of combat.

It is said that this is a scripture left behind by a fallen True Saint. Unfortunately, due to the fierce competition among various parties at the time, only the first part was found in his dilapidated cave.

Zhuo Yanran didn't want to give it to him. Although she had wronged him earlier, this person was too hateful. Couldn't he at least explain himself? He just gave her a bottle of "extreme substance".

"Without a scripture to resolve the hidden dangers, I cannot participate, as my body is not fit for violence," Wang Xuan said resolutely.

"Give it to him. Even though he makes it sound so reasonable, I still really want to go down and teach him a lesson. Let's satisfy his request for the scriptures first!" said the enormous Golden Great Peng Bird.

Black Crane nodded and said, "Yes, the first few levels of this scripture are still practiceable, but the last three levels are increasingly difficult, as difficult as ascending to heaven. Normal beings simply cannot practice them. Even those who practice this scripture are geniuses, and in the end, they are forced to abandon the various wonders they have cultivated and lose some of their cultivation in order to break free."

The Star River Cleansing Body Scripture is included in the records of some top-tier Anomalous Being ethnic groups, but they have mixed feelings about it, both longing for it and fearing it, because it is almost impossible to fully master it.

"Here you go. Since you are not a slave, I will tell you in advance that this scripture is quite harmful..." Zhuo Yanran explained the situation, and then wrote it down on the star sand paper. After being confirmed by the Golden Book and Golden Book and Jade Scroll, it was confirmed to be the true and flawless first part of the scripture.

Ripples spread, and the star-shaped paper passed through the light screen, ending up in Wang Xuan's hands. He looked at it again and again, memorizing it, and was very satisfied. He had his appearance fee in hand.

"That's enough. I only have one request: Fair Duel!" Wang Xuan said, allowing... beings of the same Great Realm as him to participate.

After all, they are dealing with the descendants of Anomalous Beings. Who knows if there are any extremely special individuals among them, such as the supernatural beings' youngest sons or their direct disciples?

He didn't want to rush into a battle with a Celestial-level creature right away. He'd start with a True Immortal. This trip was to assess the level of the disciples from these top races in the Star Sea.

The instant he finished speaking, the Golden Book and Jade Scroll opened up a battlefield for him, and he was now within the range of light.

Zhuo Yanran's long black hair flew in the wind. She smiled slightly, her exquisite face radiating a brilliant glow. She truly possessed the beauty to captivate a city. Her graceful body, wrapped in a long dress, swayed, and in an instant, she twisted the sky and swooped down into the battlefield.

At this moment, she appeared with stunning beauty, and then... with a bang, she was blocked by a light barrier that suddenly appeared. It was clear that the light barrier had flowing runes, bearing the terrifying force of her impact.

In an instant, she covered her face with one hand and hugged her chest with the other, feeling weak and in pain as she slowly squatted down on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.

Everyone was stunned. What had happened? Lu Renjia hadn't made a move.

Ye Lin, with her Clear and Transcendent, noticed something amiss and said, "The Golden Book and Jade Scroll battlefield is protecting Lu Renjia in order to maintain fairness and impartiality!"

After saying that, she quickly flew over to help Zhuo Yanran.

"Why?" Many people were puzzled and found it unbelievable.

Then, some people realized the truth.

Although Zhuo Yanran was helped up, she still couldn't get up. She was limp and squatted there, still covering her face. She couldn't bear to be seen. She had injured herself. Why was she so unlucky lately?!

"What level are you at?" she asked, clutching her chest and covering her face in anguish.

"True Immortal realm," Wang Xuan replied.

"A true immortal?!" Zhuo Yanran suddenly wanted to cry and whimpered, then she was in so much pain that she actually shed tears.

Nearby, many people could hardly believe their ears. How dare a mere True Immortal come here to challenge them? Everyone was stunned!

Most of the Supernatural Practitioner come to fish in the Mysterious Sea are Heavenly Grade Being. While there are certainly True Immortals, they are very few and far between, and their strength is insufficient to make them stand out here.

As it turned out, this person who had been hiding in the seabed and had been alive all along was just a true immortal, overturning their preconceived notions and leaving them speechless with surprise.

The most pitiful one was Zhuo Yanran, who actually cried. She was so embarrassed this time, bumping into that suddenly appearing rune light screen in front of everyone. She didn't even have time to avoid it, and it hurt so much!

She was starting to question her life. She was stunningly beautiful, highly skilled, and considered a prodigy, admired by her peers. But after meeting this person, she suffered one misfortune after another, and was no longer the Goddess in everyone's eyes. She became inelegant in every way, it was unbelievable...

Ye Lin finally helped her up. Seeing her quickly healing her swollen and bleeding face with her magic, she wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to do so.

Zhuo Yanran finally lowered her hand, having fully recovered. She was both angry and resentful, yet helpless, and said, "You're only at the True Immortal realm?!"

"So what if I'm a True Immortal? In this field, I'm very likely to be unrivaled, and I might even be able to defeat Heavenly Grade supernatural practitioner!" Wang Xuan replied calmly.

Then, he couldn't help but laugh, because he was right in front of the other person and had the clearest view of what happened to Zhuo Yanran. It was truly... she was deformed in an instant.

Seeing his smile, Zhuo Yanran was furious. She turned around and asked quickly, "Are there any true immortals here? Has my cousin arrived?" She was indignant and resentful. If she couldn't get her revenge today, she felt like she would suffocate.

This place was naturally in an uproar. Everyone thought there was going to be a fierce battle, but it turned out to be just a True Immortal who had wandered in.

"With such a low cultivation level, how dare a mere True Immortal come here? It's utterly absurd that he's actually entered the battleground of the Golden Book and Jade Scroll!"

"We mobilized a whole group of Heavenly Grade Expert to come here, only to find out we were just wasting our time with a True Immortal. It's utterly shameful."

At this moment, someone stepped forward and said, "I am a true immortal, and I am willing to fight him!"

There's no need to overthink it; true immortals are extremely rare here, and those who do appear are all exceptional, otherwise they wouldn't be qualified to travel with us and come here.

"Fellow Daoist, please state your name, your clan, and which extraordinary person you belong to." Wang Xuan smiled, all in order to take this opportunity to learn about the powerful extraordinary people in the starry sky.

"No need, the battle will be over soon." The cool Man in Green said, and attacked directly. His palm and fingers swept across the void, flowing with Daoist energy. He was indeed very strong, a rarity among True Immortals.

The two clashed, Wang Xuan observed his techniques. In the brief but intense exchange, he gained a preliminary assessment and understanding of the level of the True Immortals among the descendants of the Extraordinary Ones.

Unable to break through Wang Xuan's defenses, the Man in Green soared into the sky. As he swooped down again, he revealed his true form: a blue raptor that tore through the void and pounced on Wang Xuan.

However, the next moment, a huge fist came to his face. With a bang, blue feathers flew everywhere. He coughed up blood, and all the feathers on his body disappeared. The raptor's body was bald. He fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

"Should we just let this True Immortal realm go?" Wang Xuan frowned, looking thoughtful.

In the distance, the expressions of a group of people changed. This true immortal from the seabed was indeed quite capable, but his words seemed too arrogant.

"Cousin, I'm here. I just arrived. I came from the family. There are rumors outside that you vomited in the Mysterious Sea. The rumors are getting more and more outrageous. Some people are saying it's morning sickness. Uncle was shocked and asked me to investigate." Zhuo Yanran's cousin appeared. Although he was communicating telepathically, his words almost made her furious. It was truly outrageous!
