The Cultivator of the Heavenly Sha Sect retreated with their Sect Master.

[They retreated very professionally, cleaning up the corpses and belongings of their fellow disciples, as well as the surrounding battlefield, leaving you with absolutely nothing of value.]

[You don't seem to care.]

[You received a Jade Slip and a Heavenly Emperor's Red Bellyband today, which were unexpected gains.]

[Furthermore, there's an awkward situation to deal with right now.]

[The Flying Feather Sect Master, Holy Light True Lord, and the Green Hill Sect Master, Void-Breaking True Lord, have both arrived at your side.]

They all bowed with clasped hands, formally extending an invitation to you.

"Your presence on our Blaze Star is an honor to our humble abode. Would you be so kind as to grace our sect with your presence, allowing us to admire your brilliance and exchange cultivation insights?"

You cannot ignore this one thing.

This is a planet, vast and rich in resources.

[The Holy Light True Monarch and the Void-Breaking True Monarch are the highest-ranking figures in one of the three most powerful and influential sects on this planet.]

[Furthermore, those in the Heaven-Reaching Realm are all ancient monsters who have cultivated for over a thousand years.]

Therefore, they are not as easily fooled as the onlookers.

[You can feel two icy auras constantly scanning your body.]

[This might be something akin to Divine Sense, emanating from Holy Light True Monarch and Void-Breaking True Monarch.]

They seem impressed by your abilities and treat you with utmost respect.

[No one knows what they're actually thinking.]

[You don't know who currently possesses the Mystic Fire Mirror and the other Heavenly Emperor Relics.]

[You weren't paying attention to their fight just now.]

[Regardless of who has them in your hands, you have no intention of using your current advantage, which has been influenced by others, to swindle those things over.]

[Because you're certain that people like Holy Light True Monarch and Void-Breaking True Monarch are not easily fooled.]

[Everyone thought you were very strong, but actually it was because the Dragon Person Race ran into the Golden Entry fire. You're far from being able to perform like that against other Alien Race.]

[If they discover this, the Jade Slip you possess will be your death warrant.]

[Know when to stop. The next simulation will be the same; this little bit of harvest is already quite good.]

[So you said so.]

"No need. I'm not interested in your sect. As for exchanging experiences, I'm afraid it's just me who will share them with you. I have important business to attend to on Blaze Star."

It just so happened that this Heavenly Emperor Relics came into existence.

"I had no intention of intervening. I had matters to attend to that were a hundred times more pressing than this Heavenly Emperor Relics. It was you who attacked first that prompted me to issue a slight punishment."

[A mere "punishment" was enough to crack open the skull of the strongest person on this planet.]

[The matter I'm dealing with on Blaze Star is even more important than the Heavenly Emperor Relics.]

The onlookers found your identity increasingly mysterious.

[Void-Breaking True Monarch Xu spoke.]

"What matter does Senior wish to attend to? We are ready to offer our assistance."

[This Void-Breaking True Monarch is from the Three-Eyed Race.]

He's testing you.

The Three-Eyed Race race possesses a natural Divine Eye, capable of seeing through illusions.

To put it bluntly, they couldn't fake it in front of the Three-Eyed Race.

[You've copied the Three-Eyed Race's talent, so you know this very well.]

[Void-Breaking True Monarch is now absolutely certain that you only have the Core Formation Realm.]

[He just doesn't know how you managed to kill the Demon Sha True Monarch, so he's putting on an act.]

[It can be said that Void-Breaking True Monarch will attack you is entirely up to him.]

You have to slip away quickly, before they realize what's going on.

"Although the Mystic Fire Mirror isn't very famous, it's still a celestial weapon used by the Heavenly Emperor. Since you've shown yourself today, it wouldn't be appropriate for us to take it. Why don't you accept it?"

[The second test from the Void-Breaking True Monarch has begun.]

He presented the Mystic Fire Mirror, which he had painstakingly snatched from others, with both hands.

[However, what he never expected was that you also possessed his racial talent!]

[So you could tell at a glance that this Mystic Fire Mirror is an illusion; it's actually just a wisp of energy, probably conjured by Void-Breaking True Monarch using some kind of Divine Ability.]

[Those who don't understand Divine Ability certainly wouldn't be able to see through it.]

[Unfortunately, you're a bug; you used the Three-Eyed Race's innate ability to see right through it.]

This is a psychological game.

[Void-Breaking True Monarch is observing your expression, wanting to see how you react to such a treasure, and whether it be befits the demeanor of a powerhouse above the Heaven-Reaching Realm.]

[You chuckled softly.]

"There's no such thing as Heavenly Emperor Immortal Martial Arts."

[The expression on Void-Breaking True Monarch's face froze.]

"What I mean is, the Mirror you're fighting over isn't some kind of magical artifact."

It was just an ordinary Mirror, the Mirror a young woman would carry with her to do her hair and makeup.

It only absorbed some of the Heavenly Emperor Power, which is why it possesses strange might; it is not a treasure of the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Martial Arts level.

You're not making this up.

[Because when they were fighting over the Mirror, you used "Reverse Engineering" and there were no blueprints.]

[This is not a creation of immortality; it's just an ordinary object, no different from the Red Bellyband you're holding.]

[Of course, the relics of the Heavenly Emperor cannot be described as "ordinary."]

[They were imbued with the Heavenly Emperor Power that naturally dissipated after the Heavenly Emperor's death, and had long since undergone a transformation.]

[Only if they are Law Artifact or Spirit Treasure can they be called Heavenly Emperor Immortal Martial Arts; otherwise, they fall far short.]

Your words have surprised many people.

"[Including that Holy Light True Monarch from the Flying Feather Sect," he said with surprise.]

["Isn't this the Mystic Fire Mirror? No wonder those people on the First-Class Star weren't very interested after receiving the news..."]

[Void-Breaking True Monarch didn't seem surprised; clearly, his Divine Eye were more developed than those of ordinary Three-Eyed Race, and he had seen through the Mirror.]

[Void-Breaking True Monarch readily accepted the offer.]

["Since it's just an ordinary relic, I suppose you're not interested in it anymore..."]

You glanced at the two of them casually.

["Speaking of which, when these relics flew to my feet just now, you attacked me too..."]

Upon hearing this, the two immediately knelt on one knee.

"We were blind to your greatness, senior. You have not yet revealed your true form, and we were unable to see through your illusions. Please forgive us!"

Seeing how humble these two were, the Cultivator present were even more convinced that you must be a powerful figure, the kind that transcends interstellar distances!

[The Know-It-All in the crowd, his legs were trembling like a leaf.]

[How could I have yelled at someone like that and even attacked him?]

[Although I didn't get the better of them, I even got beaten up several times.]

"That's more like it! How could a nobody like me, Karami, possibly defeat such a powerful figure?"

[Now even your request for him to be your guide makes sense.]

[The big shot comes from a distant First-Class Star or Special-Class Star, so he certainly wouldn't know anything about this poor, remote Second-Class Star.]

[So I found someone who knows the area well to give me an introduction.]

[How come this expert doesn't even know basic things like Divine Pattern?]

[It doesn't matter anymore. You crushed the Demon Sha True Monarch like tofu. Do you even know how important Divine Pattern are?]

[Perhaps they wouldn't even bother using Divine Pattern!]

[You looked at the two kneeling figures and waved your hand.]

"If it weren't for urgent business, I would have punished you all! Enough, get up."

"Thank you so much, senior!"
