Chapter 1142: Originally in the Immortal Capital
This is the most sacred moment of every Immortal Capital Trial!
This is the moment that countless cultivators of the Fifth Star Ring dream of.
Those who successfully obtain the qualification will, under the witness of all living things, ascend to the Immortal Capital as if ascending to immortality!
And Xu Qing's figure walked along that most vast rainbow, moving forward without hesitation, step by step upward.
Behind him, in different places across the four great star domains, on ninety-nine rainbows, ninety-nine other cultivators who had obtained the qualification to ascend to the Immortal Capital were also moving forward.
At this moment, they are the focus of the four great star domains.
At this moment, they are the stars that deserve the title.
At this moment, the four great star domains are relatively quiet, and countless gazes are gathered on the firmament.
Even though the sky in the eyes of too many people can actually only be seen in a small part, for the powerhouses in the four great star domains, the light emitted by that most vast rainbow is unique.
Thus, amidst the gaze of all living things, the people on the rainbows went higher and higher, getting closer and closer to the aurora of the firmament, and finally... one by one, they submerged into the aurora.
Stained by the crimson color.
And above this firmament aurora, it is not the starry sky. It is a expanse of mist.
The mist is so vast that it seems to cover the starry sky.
Only the one hundred ancient and vicissitudinous square pillars standing in the mist are very obvious!
They are arranged in a ladder shape, with the middle one being the highest, and the two sides decreasing in turn.
Looking at it as a whole, it looks like the character "person"!
And all the pillars are seven-colored.
It seems as if they have existed for countless years, witnessed countless glories, and exude endless majesty.
And the light they emit forms rainbows one after another.
Scattered into the aurora below, falling into the four great star domains under the aurora.
It became the reception manifested in the eyes of all living things.
As for the highest pillar in the middle, the rainbow light it emits is the most brilliant, and on it... Xu Qing's figure is stepping out from within the aurora, walking on this rainbow!
Among these hundred cultivators, he is the first to walk into and out of the aurora.
As the aurora flows by his side, as he continues to move forward, it is as if he is walking from the bottom of a river... onto the surface of the river.
The moment he left the river surface, Xu Qing saw the infinite mist here and saw the one hundred pillars shining with seven colors.
His footsteps did not pause, and as he walked, he arrived before the high platform, arriving at the middle pillar.
He stood there.
Then he turned around and looked down.
Below is the vast aurora, crimson like the sea.
Within it, ninety-nine rainbows hang down, and on the rainbows, figures of cultivators are now walking out one after another, heading toward their respective corresponding high platforms.
In the crowd, Xu Qing saw Zhou Zhengli. Zhou Zhengli smiled humbly.
He saw Fu Xie You Lingzi. Fu Xie You Lingzi lowered his head slightly.
He saw Yuanshan Su. Yuanshan Su avoided Xu Qing's gaze.
He saw Li Mengtu. Li Mengtu's expression was somewhat excited.
He saw Qianjun Biyi. The two brothers, originally arrogant, instinctively shrank their heads at this moment.
Xu Qing's gaze swept over them one by one.
Most of them were strangers to him, and among the few familiar figures, Jiang Fan was missing, and there was one more... a black-clothed youth!
That youth exuded a sense of order all over his body, surrounded by iron chains formed by starlight. When Xu Qing's gaze fell on him, his gaze also fell on Xu Qing.
Star Ring Son!
Xu Qing was calm in his heart.
Xu Qing was not too surprised that these people appeared on the rainbows. As for Star Ring Son, Xu Qing had long sensed that the other party had awakened. He had also been sitting cross-legged outside the Star Ring Tower before, but the other party did not come.
Therefore, seeing him again at this moment, Xu Qing's heart had no ripples. After his gaze swept over, he withdrew it calmly. Without paying attention to those cultivators who were gradually walking onto their respective high platforms, Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the mist above.
He had always felt that the Fifth Star Ring did not seem very large.
This concept of size was a cognition obtained after comparing it with the Eastern Wanggu Continent.
Even though the Fifth Star Ring contains four great star domains, no matter which star domain it is, east, west, south, or north, it can be called vast, and any one of them far exceeds the Eastern Wanggu Continent.
Too many cultivators, even if they fly for a lifetime, find it difficult to walk out of too much range. But in Xu Qing's feeling, it was still a bit small.
According to the star map of the thirty-six star rings he saw back then, any star ring should be infinitely large.
But after coming to the Fifth Star Ring, everything was not like this.
Of course, Xu Qing understood that this might have something to do with the Fifth Star Ring being filled in. After all, the starry sky is a multi-layered range, a space.
And the Fifth Star Ring after being filled in became a continent, so naturally, the perception was different.
But in the final analysis, these were only one of the reasons, and not the main reason.
So, why would it be like this? This was the doubt in Xu Qing's heart after walking through the four great star domains. Until this moment...
Standing on this ancient high platform, looking at the endless mist, Xu Qing's thoughts slowly began to ripple.
He had a premonition.
The true Fifth Star Ring... would be displayed before his eyes. He was looking forward to it.
Also looking forward to it were the other cultivators who had come here, and the crowd did not wait long. The moment the last person walked onto their own high platform...
The mist suddenly churned.
An indescribable pressure seemed to permeate within the mist, like an invisible hand waving gently.
And so... the thick fog covering Xu Qing and the others above instantly receded like a tide, dispersing in an instant, and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The vast starry sky appeared in their eyes!
This starry sky seemed boundless, containing a huge vortex that occupied ninety percent of the starry sky.
It seemed stationary, but if perceived carefully, it also seemed to be rotating.
The high platform where Xu Qing and the others were located was insignificant compared to this majestic vortex.
And in everyone's perception, within this astonishing vortex that occupied the starry sky, there existed countless stars, life, and rich immortal spiritual energy.
But just as everyone's mind was immersed in it, suddenly... it was as if a force was shrinking the starry sky.
That vortex, in the eyes of Xu Qing and the others, was shrinking rapidly!
And as it shrank, a more vast star vortex appeared in the starry sky. The previous vortex was already gone, not because it disappeared, but because it was too small, only one-billionth of this star vortex!
Xu Qing's heart shook.
And everything was not over. In the next instant, this huge star vortex actually shrank again.
Thus, everyone including Xu Qing saw countless such astonishing star vortexes, and these vortexes gathered together to form a larger star map.
To be precise, this is a star domain!
If one saw this star domain first, the concept of its size might not be obvious.
But as it shrank layer by layer before, looking at this star domain again at this moment, "vast" seemed insufficient to describe it.
But... this was still not the end.
In the next instant, this star domain actually shrank again, and countless star domains similar to it appeared around it, and these countless star domains actually formed a complete universe!
But when this universe entered everyone's eyes, the starry sky blurred for an instant, and then... countless such universes appeared in everyone's perception.
In shock, these countless universes shrank once again. The starry sky roared.
Finally... a majestic figure appeared in everyone's eyes.
That was not a true body, but was composed of countless small star systems, countless large star systems, countless star domains, and countless universes!
The appearance could not be seen clearly, but its supremacy could be perceived! But this body was not the Immortal Venerable of the Fifth Star Ring!
Because, the moment this majestic figure composed of countless universes appeared, the starry sky was shrunk again, and beside this figure, ten equally astonishing figures appeared!
A total of eleven!
Like eleven heavens beyond heavens!
Those are the eleven Immortal Lords of the Fifth Star Ring!
Each one brilliant.
The moment they appeared, whether it was Xu Qing or others, these one hundred heaven-proud sons all felt monstrous waves rising in their hearts.
Amidst the continuous roaring, Xu Qing, following the ripples in his heart, looked at those eleven figures.
Although one of them could not be seen clearly, the experience from the Immortal Palace allowed him to recognize the identity at a glance!
That is... Nine Shores Immortal Lord!
The figure of Nine Shores Immortal Lord was somewhat special compared to other Immortal Lords. In front of him, there was a ring composed of starlight.
The moment he saw this ring, a realization rose in Xu Qing's heart. That is the Ring of the Era.
Now... it is the Nine Shores Era!
Xu Qing took a deep breath, suppressed the fluctuations in his heart, endured the dazzling feeling, and looked at the other Immortal Lords. He wanted to find... Master Bai!
Until he saw the ninth one.
That majestic figure seemed to be an old man. He could not be seen clearly, but the medicine jar he held in his hand made Xu Qing feel incomparably familiar.
And this old man lowered his head slightly, as if his gaze fell on Xu Qing, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Xu Qing also smiled and bowed.
And after Xu Qing's bow, the starry sky blurred again, and that sense of shrinking returned.
As the heaven beyond heaven where the eleven Immortal Lords were located became smaller and smaller, behind them, a more vast figure, carrying supreme holiness and unparalleled pressure, occupied the entire starry sky.
That is the source of immortality!
That is the Supreme of the Fifth Star Ring.
That is the Immortal Venerable who had suppressed the God Venerable!
The eleven heavens beyond heavens surrounded his body. This is the true Fifth Star Ring!
After it was occupied by cultivators, it was divided in the process of filling in, and almost all areas were divided into the heavens beyond heavens.
As for the four great star domains of east, west, south, and north that were left behind. Those are the ancestral lands! It is the place of origin.
So, in fact, there is no such thing as an Immortal Capital, because that place... is the Immortal Capital. It is also the direct line land of the Fifth Star Ring!
All the slaughter, all the suffering, are for the sake of raising the direct line.
All for the future of the Fifth Star Ring.
Because the cultivators who come out of there are pure and authentic! Their future shoulders a mission.
As for the life in the eleven heavens beyond heavens, in a sense, they are just collateral branches.
Even the vast majority are not human, just having some human bloodline bestowed upon them.
At this moment, there is no need to say more. The moment everyone including Xu Qing saw this vast scene, their own cognitions emerged.
"So that's how it is..." Xu Qing murmured.
At the same time, in the eleven heavens beyond heavens, the Nine Shores Immortal Lord who was on duty this era opened his eyes.
"Those who ascended this session, enter my heaven beyond heaven." ===== CHAPTER 1145 =====
