Chapter 1132

The Sovereign realm is the process of forming an Immortal Embryo.

Once the Immortal Embryo is formed, combined with a Constitution of the corresponding level, one can step into Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor.

Afterwards, the Immortal Embryo transforms into an Immortal, the Constitution becomes a tributary, and the Quasi-Immortal promotes to Lower Immortal!

These three major realms are the longing that countless cultivators dream of in this life, but those who can truly walk through them all are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

It can be said that every major realm is a cruel screening and elimination; every step taken requires opportunity and fortune, and even more so, one's own accumulation of foundation.

It is precisely because the gods of the Fifth Star Ring have been suppressed and cultivators no longer have catastrophes like natural enemies that their numbers have skyrocketed, which is why there appear to be many Sovereign cultivators.

But in reality, looking at the proportion, they are still a minority.

As for the Wanggu Continent, gods run rampant, foreign substances permeate, and survival is difficult; even in its prime, it could not compare with the entire Fifth Star Ring in terms of the number of cultivators.

Therefore, until now, there have only been a few Sovereigns.

Because the improvement of these three steps requires not only the layer-by-layer strengthening of the Constitution, but also a massive amount of Star Ring power as nutrients to form the Immortal Embryo, until it transforms into an Immortal.

Nothing can be missing.

These, Xu Qing already knew before.

At the moment of breakthrough, he understood even more where his advantages and weaknesses lay.

Just like when he was in the Spirit-Hidden realm, his Constitution was strong, but his physical body was a flaw... at this moment in the Sovereign realm, it was similar.

"The reason I can step into this fifth-layer world of the Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor is because of my Constitution."

"The Parallel Universe and Overlapping Cosmos of the Ninth Pole, in terms of level, is already comparable to the perfect Constitution of a Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor; calling it a tributary is not much different."

"So for me, in the Sovereign realm, or even the Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor realm, what I lack... is only the birth and growth of the Immortal Embryo."

"Then the path ahead, my focus is to obtain more Star Ring power, which is the source power of the upper star rings, to use as nutrients to accelerate the birth and growth of my Immortal Embryo."

"As for the Constitution... I cannot put it down either, because if I want to step into Lower Immortal, my current Constitution is still one level short."

"That is... the Tenth Pole!"

Xu Qing, sitting cross-legged, while feeling the fluctuations of his current cultivation base, whispered in his heart, summarizing the past and analyzing the future.

What the Tenth Pole was, Xu Qing did not know, and he had no direction yet.

But for his current strengths and weaknesses, he was already clear in his heart.

"Now, my killing power can fight a Quasi-Immortal, but my physical body, because it is in the process of the Immortal Embryo's birth, has a strength of only Sovereign, so facing the power of a Quasi-Immortal, this is a flaw."

Xu Qing was thoughtful.

"Like an assassin?"

A dark light appeared in his eyes; he ended his thoughts, looked up, and gazed at the nothingness.

Where he looked, the nothingness rippled, and a sharp fluctuation rose and erupted there, as if someone was outside, forcing their way in.

Xu Qing naturally knew the identity of the person coming.

It was just that...

"Broke through outside?"

Xu Qing's expression was indifferent; when he looked, the ripples in that nothingness had become vast, and Star Ring Son's figure was revealed within.

The moment he appeared, his aura expanded suddenly, and the might of a Quasi-Immortal erupted.

"Xu Qing!!"

The roar shocked the sky, rumbling in all directions.

Star Ring Son's eyes at this moment were blood-red; the moment he appeared, he stared fixedly at Xu Qing.

He had indeed broken through!

There was no way not to break through; after being driven away multiple times, he had already understood that wanting to promote to Quasi-Immortal in the fifth-layer world according to the plan was an impossible task.

So he could only decisively choose to break through his own cultivation base outside and step into Quasi-Immortal.

And such a breakthrough was naturally imperfect.

Thus, the killing intent in his heart had long exceeded before, and his desire to kill Xu Qing was intense to the extreme.

Sensing this killing intent and seeing Star Ring Son's blood-red eyes, Xu Qing's expression remained as usual, and he spoke faintly.

"Waited for you for a long time."

These four words rippled through the fifth-layer world, like a storm whistling, like thunder cracking, forming a series of time-space fluctuations.

These fluctuations echoed before and after Star Ring Son, echoed in his past, present, and future, everywhere!

And in Xu Qing's eyes, brilliant stars appeared at this moment, shining with the light of the passage of time and space.

Under this gaze, Star Ring Son in his eyes no longer existed alone.

He saw... countless time and space, and Star Ring Son in different states in each of these time and space!

Some were manic, some were sneering, some were silent, some were ferocious, some were bitter...

In countless time and space, countless Star Ring Sons were all gazed at by Xu Qing in one look.

"Seeing" was only the first step, and the second step was influencing.

Xu Qing at this moment could clearly feel that he could influence not only the Star Ring Son of the present world, but he could also influence the other party in other time and space.

Even if his Constitution's law power was sufficient, then... he could achieve erasure in the true sense.

Erasing all the other parties in all time and space, regardless of cause and effect, regardless of fate, regardless of reincarnation...

This feeling made Xu Qing think of the True God mentioned by Yu Liuchen back then.

The reason a True God could return was because the True Name was indestructible, so even if they died, as long as they were remembered, they could become a mark for return.

Back then, Xu Qing heard this and felt it was profound, only feeling that the True God was terrifying and existed with too many unknowns.

But now... he already understood.

The reason the one who returned was not the other party was because... it was possible that the god who reappeared after death was transformed from a god in another time and space.

As these enlightenments rose in his heart, Star Ring Son's heart also fluctuated violently.

"But unfortunately, hindered by the fact that my Immortal Embryo is currently only Illusionary Truth, and its Ninth Pole has not reached the end, the current me cannot influence all time and space."

Xu Qing whispered in his heart, lifted his right hand, faced Star Ring Son, and opened it slightly.

And at this moment, Star Ring Son was looking at Xu Qing; the divine charm emanating from Xu Qing's eyes made his heart shake, and his scalp felt a bit numb at this instant.

While his breathing stalled, a strong sense of crisis also erupted.

It was a feeling of being seen through.

Seen through cause and effect, seen through fate, seen through reincarnation, so... the crisis born from instinct.

Thus the next instant, chains of order appeared on Star Ring Son's left and right in an instant; while surrounding him, the terrifying power under his Quasi-Immortal cultivation base also erupted with a roar.

Just about to attack...

Xu Qing lifted the palm facing Star Ring Son and squeezed it lightly.

A faint sound came from his mouth.

"No-Space!"

The moment these two words echoed, the instant his palm gripped... the time and space that appeared around Star Ring Son in Xu Qing's eyes all roared, rippled, and appeared with disordered eruptions.

This eruption reached the extreme in the blink of an eye, turning into a time-space storm, roaring on Star Ring Son's body.

Before this, No-Space could not be mastered in Xu Qing's hands and could only be left to rise in disorder, but now... after mastering the Ninth Pole, it was different.

Following the wave of Xu Qing's fist opening, the disordered time-space storm was immediately pulled, swept directly, like an angry wave falling, and swept... Star Ring Son's nine time and space, excluding the present world!

Making the Star Ring Sons in those nine time and space all exposed to this storm; their physical bodies decayed in the blink of an eye, and all the chains of order weathered in the passage of time.

This was as if telling...

Any order, in the passage of light and time, would become the past.

Thus, among the Star Ring Sons in those nine time and space, three emitted miserable sounds, their bodies becoming flying ash in this passage of time, with only the Immortal Embryo still there, like a molting body.

It was just that it seemed they could not hold on for long, and were trembling.

The other six time-space bodies also began to collapse in this passage of time.

And their experiences also affected the present world, so the Star Ring Son of the present world spat out blood, and his body also began to decay!

This was Quasi-Immortal combat power!

Capable of affecting the Immortal Embryo!

Conversely, even if the Constitution's manifestation was gorgeous, if it could not shake the Immortal Embryo, then it could not be called Quasi-Immortal combat power.

And the concrete manifestations affected by different Constitutions were also different.

Parallel time and space rippled with Parallel Universe and Overlapping Cosmos, relying on destroying multiple time and space to ripple the present world.

If it were Li Mengtu, after his poison reached this level, then what would be corroded by his attack would be the body of the present world.

And Star Ring Son was also like this, especially since his cultivation base had already broken through and become a Quasi-Immortal.

Even if this breakthrough was not perfect in his eyes, his combat power was ultimately not bad.

So even if he could not see his other time and space now, but after feeling that his Immortal Embryo was damaged, his counterattack... also unfolded!

Countless chains of order, each shining with golden light, after converging together, seemed to form a weighing instrument!

That was a balance.

One end was himself, and the other end was Xu Qing!

And above the order... was balance!

The instant it appeared, it connected in the dark!

The moment it connected, the No-Space storm stirred up by Xu Qing pressed down one end of the balance at this moment, causing it to lose balance...

After losing balance, a vast power came from the nothingness, forced its way down, landed on Star Ring Son, continuously converging, continuously becoming vast, finally making the imbalance... re-balance!

Like borrowing power!

This was the law transformed by Star Ring Son's Constitution level after stepping into Quasi-Immortal.

The stronger the enemy, the greater the external force he could leverage, finally forming vastness to suppress everything!

Xu Qing had a strange light in his eyes for such a Constitution.

"Interesting... then let's see if your limit comes first, or my limit comes first."

Xu Qing spoke faintly.

On the Ninth Pole in his body, like plucking a string, he plucked it.

Suddenly, the time-space storm caused by No-Space skyrocketed, sweeping toward Star Ring Son's other time and space; in the blink of an eye, it swallowed the eleventh time and space, followed by the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth...

Imbalance formed again, and balance continued to arrive.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes; the storm was monstrous, and the number of time and space swept in an instant increased to eighteen.

He intended to use this battle to hone his own Constitution.

And Star Ring Son's limit finally appeared gradually; the moment Xu Qing swept to the twentieth time and space, it came with a roar.

That balance... collapsed and crumbled.

Xu Qing stood up.

Twenty time and space were not his limit; in his cognition, if he opened his Ninth Pole fully now, the time and space he could ripple could reach about fifty.

As for Star Ring Son, he was currently spitting blood wildly, his Immortal Embryo had a large number of cracks, and his body retreated while rolling.

But there were not many distracting thoughts in his heart.

He knew clearly that the reason he was at a disadvantage was partly because the other party's Constitution was extremely strong, and partly because his own breakthrough was not perfect.

"Xu Qing, you are indeed very strong, but your weakness is equally obvious; your Immortal Embryo... is only at Illusionary Truth!"

Star Ring Son, while retreating, forcibly stopped, looked up, and killing intent shone in his eyes.
