“Hahaha, now you all shall follow me. I can’t wait to meet Flying Snow Divine Emperor,” the North River Divine Emperor laughed heartily.
“Yes, Divine Emperor,” the Divine Generals could only comply obediently.
Soon, the ‘Golden Light Winged Ark,’ renowned throughout the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, departed the North River World in grand fashion, traversing the void directly toward the Starlight World.

**Starlight World.**
Dongbo Xueying, the Starlight Sovereign, and their companions gathered in the grand hall, prepared to face any external threats at any moment.
“Brother Flying Snow, I’ve been communicating with the other World Sovereigns,” the Starlight Sovereign said eagerly. “Upon hearing that you’re willing to assist, they were all overjoyed. Whatever requests you have, Brother Flying Snow, just name them. This is a great mercy that saves entire clans—they won’t hesitate to offer anything within their power!”
Dongbo Xueying sensed the shift in the Starlight Sovereign’s attitude.
When he first arrived, the Starlight Sovereign had treated him as a friend. Now, he regarded him as a ‘savior,’ his gratitude overflowing.
“I need intelligence on the Floating Islands,” Dongbo Xueying said with a smile.
“Intelligence is trivial,” the Starlight Sovereign quickly replied. “Though such knowledge is highly guarded and rarely shared between worlds, trading it causes no real loss to any clan. If Brother Flying Snow asks for only this in exchange for saving their clans, they might even feel uneasy! Without offering sufficient rewards, they may doubt your willingness to aid them in their time of need.”
Dongbo Xueying was momentarily speechless—they were practically begging him to take their treasures.
No cultivator from the Heart Realm Continent had likely experienced anything like this before. Previously, these native World Sovereigns probably looked down on cultivators like him.
“If there are any rare treasures that are useless to the natives but invaluable to us cultivators, I wouldn’t mind accepting them,” Dongbo Xueying conceded.
“Brother Flying Snow, your demands are far too modest. I’ll have them prepare gifts for you to choose from later,” the Starlight Sovereign insisted. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he gasped, “The Golden Light Winged Ark! They’re here already! I must summon the other World Sovereigns immediately!”
“The Golden Light Winged Ark?”
“What? The North River Divine Emperor is arriving this soon?”
The elders and generals of the Starlight Clan in the hall paled in shock.
What status did the North River Divine Emperor hold?
Among the countless native worlds, a World Sovereign, bolstered by their homeworld’s power, was formidable within their domain. But once they left, their strength plummeted drastically! The Starlight Sovereign was but an ordinary figure among the many World Sovereigns of the Broken Tooth Mountain Range—so insignificant that even the Undying Nether Divine Emperor hadn’t recognized him before. Someone of his standing normally wouldn’t even qualify to meet the North River Divine Emperor, who was hailed as the being closest to the Supreme Existence.
—
**Starlight Sovereign City.**
Thick starlight bathed the entire city, radiating outward to suppress the world.
The Starlight Sovereign and Dongbo Xueying stood side by side outside the city gates. Around them, spatial ripples emerged one after another as World Sovereigns arrived in succession—summoned by the Starlight Sovereign’s permission, they bypassed the world’s suppression and teleported directly here. Meanwhile, the North River Divine Emperor’s Golden Light Winged Ark had already appeared in the distance, forcibly tearing through the starlight suppression as it advanced at terrifying speed.
“Brother Starlight!”
“Brother Starlight, has the North River Divine Emperor arrived so quickly?”
One by one, the World Sovereigns arrived—all close friends of the Starlight Sovereign, as he had first reached out to his most trusted circle. The Broken Tooth Mountain Range was vast, with countless native worlds, many of which had no ties to the Starlight World. This time, the Starlight Sovereign had gathered over twenty of his closest allies.
Upon arrival, they all cast nervous yet hopeful glances at the white-robed youth, Dongbo Xueying.
“This is my sworn brother, Flying Snow,” the Starlight Sovereign introduced. Then, turning to Dongbo Xueying, he added, “Brother Flying Snow, these are my dearest friends—World Sovereigns from neighboring realms! None are wicked fiends; I’d never associate with such vile beings.”
“Greetings, Flying Snow Divine Emperor,” the assembled World Sovereigns saluted respectfully. Their appearances varied wildly—some had beast-like bodies with human heads, others bore twin heads, and one had hair so vast it dwarfed their frame.
Their auras, too, were diverse, each bearing unique bloodlines.
“Honored World Sovereigns, the North River Divine Emperor has arrived. Let us first receive him,” Dongbo Xueying said.
“Agreed. We shall greet this Divine Emperor first.”
“Afterward, we’ll discuss matters further with Flying Snow Divine Emperor.”
Suppressing their myriad thoughts, the World Sovereigns turned their gazes toward the distant void.
**RUMBLE—**
The Golden Light Winged Ark approached rapidly, its colossal form gleaming with radiant golden wings that stretched across the void, dazzling beyond measure. Its sheer majesty made the Starlight Sovereign and the other World Sovereigns instinctively tense, an inexplicable pressure weighing upon them.
Without Dongbo Xueying, even if they gathered a hundred World Sovereigns, they wouldn’t dare oppose the North River Divine Emperor!
A mere handful of his elite Divine Generals could slaughter them effortlessly!
Daring to unite in rebellion? The North River Divine Emperor would simply dispatch all thirty-six Divine Generals to annihilate them!
Thus, despite his tyranny in subjugating world after world, the native realms had only resisted individually—none dared unite. For unity would invite devastating retribution.
“With Brother Flying Snow here, the Divine Generals’ power will be drastically weakened. The weaker ones will fall into slumber, and even the top ten will be no stronger than you all,” the Starlight Sovereign encouraged via mental transmission. “Though the North River Divine Emperor is mighty, his strength will also be greatly diminished. With just ten of us World Sovereigns united, we can match him!”
“In terms of power, we are no weaker than them,” the Starlight Sovereign declared.
The other World Sovereigns nodded. For their clans’ sake, and emboldened by Flying Snow Divine Emperor’s presence, they finally dared to stand against the North River Divine Emperor!
**WHOOSH!**
The Golden Light Winged Ark came to a halt.
The massive ark blazed with golden radiance. At its bow stood a group of figures—led by a man in azure robes, followed by his Divine Generals, each exuding overwhelming auras far surpassing those of the World Sovereigns. As for the North River Divine Emperor himself, his presence alone cast a terrifying oppression.
His mere existence made every native in Starlight Sovereign City tremble with fear.
For him, annihilating an entire world was no difficult feat.
“North River Divine Emperor,” Dongbo Xueying looked up, meeting the gaze of the legendary figure who stood at the pinnacle of the Broken Tooth Mountain Range, his power rivaling that of the Supreme Existence.
The North River Divine Emperor’s eyes locked onto him.
In that moment, their gazes clashed.
A faint smile curled on the North River Divine Emperor’s lips—for among the gathered experts of Starlight Sovereign City, only Flying Snow Divine Emperor was worthy of his attention.
