Following Huo Fen joining the competition for the Stardusk Essence, the Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators who had been unable to continue competing in the competition narrowed their eyes ever so slightly as they all realized that there might be another path for them to still get their hands on the Stardusk Essence… And that path would inevitably involve Huo Fen winning the competition for the Stardusk Essence.
In their eyes, if Huo Fen ended up winning the Stardusk Essence, it would be simple for them to forcibly seize it. The main problem in their eyes was just that they wouldn't be the only ones to have this thought after Huo Fen joined the competition for the Stardusk Essence. In fact, the one from the Southern Central Region at the Peak of the Middle Stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm was the one with the highest chance of being able to forcibly take the Stardusk Essence if Huo Fen ended up winning it.
