As one tribulation after another descended, more and more of the tribulation's Origin Power entered Ling Tian's dantian, and the force drawing the Dan Stars into exchange grew stronger. This left Ling Tian immensely excited. Even more exciting was that his attempt to exchange the Dan Stars in the manner he had planned had not provoked any backlash. That proved his theory was viable.
