If those below the Heavenly Sovereign realm had not found it difficult to cross the barriers between planes,
these lower planes would have long become prized lands contested by every faction.
After all, obtaining resources there was far easier than in the Great Thousand World.
But why would Heavenly Sovereigns covet such insignificant places?
In short, the Great Thousand World had become the ultimate destination for ascension throughout the Heavens and Myriad Worlds,
a multiversal-level existence!
Such a setting abruptly elevated the status of Xiao Yan's world.
What shocked everyone most was that
Xiao Yan had actually established the rising power known as the "Endless Fire Territory" in the Great Thousand World in such a short time!
This Flame Emperor was undoubtedly Xiao Yan himself!
A true powerhouse could indeed stand out wherever he went,
but this rate of rise was simply beyond reason!
Compared to his long years of arduous cultivation in the Dou Qi Continent,
his development in the Great Thousand World was like a comet streaking across the sky—
in the blink of an eye, the Endless Fire Territory already stood at the summit of the world!
Such a leap left viewers throughout the Heavens and Myriad Worlds feeling as though they were in a dream.
Recalling how Xiao Yan had endured countless near-death trials in the Dou Qi Continent
before finally and painstakingly becoming a Dou Di,
then arriving in a higher plane
and becoming a peak existence without any fanfare at all!
One could not help but sigh inwardly: Could it be that the path through the Great Thousand World was actually smoother than that of the lower realm?
Douluo World—
After witnessing that an even higher world existed above the Dou Qi Continent,
Tang San's expression gradually darkened,
and the flames of jealousy nearly made him grind his teeth to pieces.
The Douluo God Realm had already seemed inferior compared to a Dou Di,
and now a higher-level world had appeared.
Compared side by side, the Douluo World was simply not worth mentioning!
Although he had not fully explored every plane in this universe,
becoming a god should have been equivalent to ascending as a Dou Di in the Dou Qi Continent,
while the God Realm should have corresponded to the Great Thousand World.
Setting aside whether the God Realm could rival the Great Thousand World,
its scale alone was vastly inferior to the latter—
only deities and their dependents could live in the God Realm.
At its core, it was merely the dwelling place of rulers,
unlike the Great Thousand World, which was filled with powerful experts.
All the deities combined likely did not even number a hundred.
By Tang San's estimation,
such a force probably could not withstand even a casual strike from a Saint Heavenly Sovereign!
This world was truly embarrassing!
"Third Brother, don't let it bother you. We are merely limited by our world!"
"If we were in the Dou Qi Continent, we would certainly become Dou Di with ease and ascend to the higher realm!"
"Even in the Great Thousand World, we would definitely gain a foothold, perhaps even surpass Xiao Yan!"
Xiao Wu gently stroked Tang San's back and consoled him softly.
Xiao Wu knew well that Tang San had always been proud to the core.
Back when his Blue Silver Grass martial soul had slowed his cultivation,
he had experienced great inner turmoil.
That pride engraved in his soul would never allow his cultivation progress to fall behind others!
And now, the truth revealed by the projection was undoubtedly even harder for him to bear!
In the Douluo Continent, he had originally been the peerless favored son of heaven, watched by all.
At merely twenty-five years old, he had attained godhood.
His talent could be said to be unprecedented and unlikely to ever be matched!
Yet the Xiao Yan in the projection not only seemed even more gifted,
but after cultivating to the peak realm,
his strength actually far surpassed the gods of their world!
No, perhaps it should not be called the peak realm—
after all, it was still unknown what realm a Dou Di corresponded to in the Great Thousand World.
To be precise, Xiao Yan had already stood above the gods of this world when he was merely a Dou Di!
Although that was only an apparent suppression,
if they truly fought with real weapons, Tang San was confident that he might not lose!
The soul skill system unique to their world was extraordinarily profound!
With divine artifacts in hand and numerous Soul Bones,
he believed himself absolutely unmatched among those of the same realm!
But if Xiao Yan broke through to an even higher realm,
then no matter how much Tang San exhausted his wits or how hard he worked,
there would be absolutely no possibility of victory!
Therefore, he sincerely agreed with Xiao Wu's view.
"You are right. If I had been born in the Dou Qi Continent, I too would certainly reach the very pinnacle!"
A resolute light ignited in Tang San's eyes.
I am absolutely no weaker than Xiao Yan.
[Xiao Yan's Endless Fire Territory gathered countless outstanding talents!] [One important reason was that he established the foundation of his faction at the exit of the planar passage.] [Whenever powerhouses from his homeland world broke through their limits, they could immediately be guided into the Endless Fire Territory!] [As a Saint Heavenly Sovereign who carried immense weight in the Great Thousand World, Xiao Yan continuously sent cultivation techniques and resources back to his homeland.] [This allowed the Dou Qi Continent, though a lower plane, to produce countless exceptionally gifted powerhouses!] [Furthermore, this land was blessed with extraordinary people and rich spiritual essence, producing talents in abundance and forming a positive cycle with the Endless Fire Territory.] [In the end, Xiao Yan elevated his entire homeland world, while the Endless Fire Territory also received bountiful returns from his homeland!]
His homeland world... everyone ascending...
Wonderful! This was clearly Xiao Yan attaining enlightenment and sending his entire plane soaring to heaven!
Viewers throughout the Heavens and Myriad Worlds were all shocked by the Dou Qi Continent's fortune.
This had surpassed the bounds of ordinary sentiment.
He was practically nurturing his homeland as though it were his closest family!
Perhaps some would question it: Did the Dou Qi Continent not also give back to the Endless Fire Territory?
One had to understand,
with Xiao Yan's current status and the foundation he had established in the Great Thousand World,
he would surely receive immense returns no matter where he invested.
This was the eternal principle that the strong only grew stronger.
Therefore, Xiao Yan's investment in the Dou Qi Continent was not because he valued its potential.
It was solely because—this was his root!
There were many people who valued loyalty and sentiment, but someone like Xiao Yan, who still remembered his original intentions after reaching the summit,
was likely one in ten thousand throughout the Heavens and Myriad Worlds.
Ordinary people who attained greatness might help their hometowns,
but what Xiao Yan did was no simple act of support.
He was lifting his homeland with both hands and sending it soaring!
Battle Through the Heavens World—
At this moment, the ruined lands of the Central Plains erupted into excitement!
Everyone realized that a Dou Di was not the end of cultivation!
There were higher realms above it! Vast worlds beyond it!
As the Dou Qi Continent's only Dou Di,
Xiao Yan had not only carved out a place for himself in the higher realm
and established a power that shook all directions,
but had also innovatively opened the resources of the higher realm to the lower world,
allowing the people of his homeland to enjoy opportunities from the higher realm even before ascending!
This was completely different from the Dou Di of the past.
Without comparison, one could not know what was precious.
There had never been few Dou Di who broke through in history,
but had any of them ever given back to the land that had nurtured them?
Instead, they drained all the Source Qi necessary for ascension,
cutting off the path for later generations to reach the summit!
Whether they had forgotten their debt of gratitude
or met with misfortune in the higher realm,
the fact remained that no one had ever repaid their homeland.
But what about Xiao Yan?
At the height of his success and fame, the first thing he thought of was returning home in glory,
and he even wanted to give his homeland new life!
Of course, this surely had something to do with his family and friends still remaining in his homeland...
The Dou Qi Continent had indeed benefited from Xiao Yan's relatives.
But so what?
We were proud of it!
We could gain early access to the resources of the higher realm,
and even the road leading to Dou Di had been paved anew.
We gladly accepted this honor!
Xiao Yan's prestige in the Dou Qi Continent had now reached its peak.
Other than his mortal enemies,
everyone looked forward to the day he would eliminate Hun Tiandi
and set off for the Great Thousand World.
At that time, those cultivators who had been trapped in their realms for many years
might be able to ride this favorable wind and break through their shackles,
perhaps even glimpse the legendary realm of the Dou Di!
