Chapter 1088

This Xiangong contains several worlds.

Each world is independent.

They exist there, and how far one can go and how many worlds one can enter depends on one's own cultivation, opportunity, and fortune.

And outside the Xiangong, looking down at this place, one can see two worlds that seem to be hidden under the spiritual tide, a piece of ripples, not clearly visible, only able to see black and white colors, blurred under the water.

As for the most clearly displayed in the eyes of the crowd, it is the third world of the Xiangong on the spiritual tide.

This world is vast, appearing boundless, giving people a sense of majesty, with numerous buildings and countless pavilions within.

Surrounded by ten thousand rays of light, thousands of auspicious colors.

One can also see countless spiritual glass made of immortal jade, shining brightly under the seven-colored light of the firmament.

As if countless gems of the world were inlaid upon it.

There are even more immortal cranes circling within this third world of the Xiangong; although their existence is illusory, they emit real and melodious cries.

Interwoven with the roaring sound of the surging spiritual tide, it seems to compose the sound of heaven.

As for the strange flowers and exotic grasses, there are also countless, competing for beauty, and at the same time, one can occasionally see some immortal figures, as if reflected from the ripples of time, falling into the eyes of the people here.

Although blurred, as they walk, spiritual energy rotates around them, which is extremely extraordinary.

Further away, a vast body sits cross-legged, appearing to support the magnificence of the third world of the Xiangong.

This body's gaze is like a torch, as if it can see through all the disturbances in the world.

In front, one can see a large number of cultivator figures, each with a pious posture, as if learning immortal techniques and Dao principles.

The entire third world of the Xiangong has melodious zither music and the sound of reading, a scene of peace.

Behind, there are mountains.

It is also part of the third world of the Xiangong.

There, clouds and mist linger, and one can vaguely see pavilions and towers appearing in between.

As if some reclusive experts live there, cultivating in seclusion, pursuing a higher realm.

And time flows here; soon the seven colors dissipate, and night falls, with stars twinkling.

Thus, the brilliance of the Xiangong and the stars in the sky shine upon each other.

Like a fairyland on earth.

Gazing at everything before his eyes, a sense of shock surged in the hearts of the people outside the Xiangong to varying degrees.

For them, this was the first time in their lives... to see such an Xiangong.

Xu Qing was the same.

And with the surging of the spiritual tide and the appearance of the Xiangong, starlight the same as the Xiangong rose on most of the people here.

That was the secret key from each of them!

Xu Qing's secret key was the bamboo slip gifted by Yunmen Qianfan, which was now flashing with light.

But his gaze did not stay on the Xiangong for too long, but instead looked toward the horizon.

At the moment the Xiangong opened, a large number of figures were roaring over.

Among them were many who did not possess an Immortal Capital Token; after all, the condition for entering the Aurora Xiangong was only a secret key, and it did not require one to be someone who possessed an Immortal Capital Token.

Therefore, many Sovereign cultivators who had not participated in the hunt in the early years also descended here.

Among them were not lacking some famous figures.

But even if they had brilliance in the past, it was still very difficult for them to compete with the stars in the present world.

Especially... the stars from the Eastern Star Ring!

The East, among the four star rings of the Fifth Star Ring, belongs to the first rank.

Not only because there are three of the Eight Great Stars in the East, but also because the overall number of heaven's prides in the East far exceeds the other three regions.

Now, these three stars had also arrived, and the way they descended also rippled through the hearts of the crowd.

First was the killing intent, which inexplicably rose in the hearts of all the cultivators here who did not possess a Law.

And it became extremely intense in an instant, influencing their souls and bodies, spreading outside their bodies, and being pulled by an astonishing power to become a black wooden door.

This door was ancient, and at this moment, it slowly opened, and a young man in black robes walked out from within.

The moment he appeared, the crowd here had their souls roaring, and their killing intent was controlled, constantly surging, as if... the person who appeared had become the master of the killing intent.

He stood there, gazing at the Xiangong, and although he didn't say a word, the gathering of this killing intent made him seem to have become a sharp blade!

A sharp blade capable of fighting a Law!

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.

Such characteristics, combined with the description of the map information, allowed Xu Qing to immediately recognize the other party's identity without anyone telling him.

This person is the Eastern Star, Evil Spirit Child.

According to the description in the map, this person is a rogue cultivator who rose from life-and-death battles, killed countless through the method of devouring, and what he cultivated was also the path of demons.

When he was insignificant, he once joined a sect, and later betrayed the sect; he was hunted down for sixty years without result, and this person disappeared without a trace.

Many years later, he appeared again, joined another sect, and yet there was still the matter of betraying the sect and being hunted down, but the outcome was the same; it was still without result.

In the years that followed, similar events occurred seven times in total.

He apprenticed seven times, betrayed the sect seven times, and finally, amidst endless hunting, he rose against the trend; the moment he achieved the Sovereign status, he slaughtered the sect he had apprenticed to from top to bottom.

In a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, he achieved his own killing Dao.

And later, he fought another star from the East, and they were evenly matched.

Thus, he was listed as a star.

"His Law was not achieved through cultivation, but is a Law treasure!"

Xu Qing looked at Evil Spirit Child, vaguely seeing a broken blade within his body!

"Yuanshan Su's Law comes from her family ancestor; her family, as the number one clan of the Southern Domain, has a very deep foundation, and her ancestor, although not a Xia Immortal, is also a peak Quasi-Immortal who possesses his own Law."

"As for Jiang Fan, like me, he inherited it from his respective master."

Li Mengtu spoke in a low voice at this moment.

"And this one, I had heard of him before; the betrayal of the sect required for the demonic path he cultivates is to activate a supreme treasure that possesses a Law, and this matter was also tacitly approved by the Heaven Patrol of the East."

Xu Qing nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then his gaze landed on the firmament.

The firmament rippled, and heavenly light spread; in the light, a person walked over.

This person had a kind appearance and was refined and courteous; as he approached, a gentle and warm feeling spread from him, and wherever it covered, those cultivators who had been influenced by the killing intent immediately recovered, as if waking from a dream.

It was precisely Zhou Zhengli, one of the three stars of the East.

He came from the Zhou family of the East, and his fame was the same as his name; he was chivalrous and righteous, charitable, and respected by countless cultivators in the East.

Walking over at this moment, the first person he looked at was Evil Spirit Child.

His Dao clearly belonged to the two extremes with Evil Spirit Child, so both wanted to kill each other.

Evil Spirit Child snorted coldly and ignored him; at this moment, he took a step and stepped directly into the Xiangong, and his figure disappeared inside in an instant.

Zhou Zhengli's expression was as usual; he withdrew his gaze, bowed slightly to the crowd here, smiled at Jiang Fan and the others, nodded at Li Mengtu, and also noticed Xu Qing.

After nodding slightly, he also walked toward the Xiangong.

But just as he approached and was about to step in, Zhou Zhengli suddenly paused and bowed to the firmament.

At the same time, Xu Qing and the other stars also sensed something and looked at the sky.

In the pitch-black night sky, there were originally stars, but now, there were nine more.

These nine stars circled each other, forming a star ring.

As they shone, starlight fell, forming a figure that appeared from nothing.

A Daoist robe of a Star Official, simple attire, long hair over his shoulders, handsome appearance, indifferent expression, as if there were not many emotional fluctuations on his body.

At this moment, as he appeared, he stepped through the air toward the Xiangong.

He walked to Zhou Zhengli's side.

Zhou Zhengli lowered his head.

Star Ring Child walked past.

Only then did Zhou Zhengli step in.

And the appearance of Star Ring Child caused a weight that exceeded all others; Jiang Fan and Yuanshan Su, as well as Qianjun Biyi from the North, all had solemn expressions.

Afterward, each of them stood up and walked toward the Xiangong.

As for the others who possessed the qualifications, they also stepped in one after another with firm expressions.

Not far away, Li Mengtu also took a deep breath, his expression heavier than ever before.

"Star Ring Child!"

"He is the leader of the Eight Great Stars, and also the publicly recognized... strongest Sovereign of the Fifth Star Ring!"

"He comes from the Eastern Star Ring Tower, was bestowed the name Star Ring, is a late-stage Sovereign of this generation, possesses nine authorities, and his strength is unfathomable; he rarely makes a move."

Only once in an open battle did he challenge a Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor.

He won in one battle and became famous throughout the world."

"This was his battle record before his inheritance, Xu Qing... you should be able to see something now, right."

Li Mengtu's voice was low.

"He realized his own Law before his inheritance."

Xu Qing spoke calmly.

Li Mengtu nodded, his expression having some ripples.

"He is the first person among his peers I have ever seen to realize a Law without relying on sect inheritance. Brother Xu, you are the second."

"At the same time, I also heard that a few days ago in the East, the inheritance given by his master was also rejected by him. He said he doesn't like things used by others; names are symbols, so he accepts them, but the Law... he prefers his own."

"And his Law is extremely mysterious; I don't know it either, but... being able to defeat a Quasi-Immortal shows how formidable he is!"

"After all, Quasi-Immortals, even if some of them indeed haven't formed their own Law, will... mostly spare no cost to let themselves possess a Law treasure."

"Otherwise, in this brilliant Fifth Star Ring, how can one talk about being a Quasi-Immortal."

Li Mengtu took a deep breath and stood up, looking at Xu Qing.

"Brother Xu, shall we go in too?"

"The Xiangong is open, although there are Quasi-Immortals entering, the way they enter is different from us; they enter the fourth world directly, so theoretically speaking, we cannot see them, and it is very difficult to have any intersection."

"Even if we possess a Law, we enter the fourth world step by step, but by that time, they have mostly gone to higher worlds."

Xu Qing nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"That works too."

After speaking, he stood up and walked toward the Xiangong with Li Mengtu.

As for Earth Spirit Ancestor, he followed behind the two, and soon the three figures stepped into the Xiangong.

Looking from the outside, it was a ripple, and no trace could be seen.

At the same time, in the second world of this Xiangong hidden under the spiritual tide.

There was a strange area there, looking at a piece of white, without a sense of space, without a sense of time, only pure white.

In that white, gradually a little person crawled out, holding a sword, turned his head, put one hand on his waist, and spoke proudly.

"Big Demon King, if you have the ability, come in! You come in! Come and mess with me!"

After roaring for a long time without seeing a response, the little person was proud and was about to leave when suddenly his expression changed, and he looked into the distance, emitting a surprised sound.

"Eh, a son has come?"
