Chapter 1145
The two words "acting master," as the name implies.
The position of acting in charge.
And the human identity and quasi-immortal cultivation also make this duty match him.
"Master, we have some guesses about your identity. Being able to be arranged by the Nine Shores Xiangong to descend to this universe and directly turn it into a private universe..."
In front of the immortal palace, an old man of the humanoid race with a third eye on his forehead bowed to Xu Qing and spoke respectfully.
"This kind of thing, throughout the ages, only those human direct lineages who ascended from the Immortal Capital have this qualification and honor."
"I think, Master, you are one of the ascenders of this session of the Immortal Capital."
"As for that Lord Kunwu... like you, Master, he is said to be one of the ascenders of the Immortal Capital from a previous session. He also has a universe that belongs to him, but because our place seems very suitable for his cultivation."
"So, he came here a thousand years ago and didn't leave..."
"He is human, and the Nine Shores Heaven is too big..."
Speaking of this, the old man glanced at Xu Qing standing in the meteorite immortal palace.
"And within the Nine Shores Heaven, a universe without an immortal palace master is an ownerless universe, so most of them are like this, with human cultivators practicing inside."
"Like in the Moyang Universe, before Lord Kunwu, there were other human cultivators occupying it, but in the past thousand years, they have been expelled by Lord Kunwu."
The old man spoke cautiously. In his heart, whether it was Kunwu or the person in front of him, he did not want to offend, so he could only hint with words.
Xu Qing heard this and was thoughtful.
"That is to say, acting master is just a title, not really acting in charge?"
The old man hesitated and finally nodded.
"Yes."
"The Moyang Universe has not had an immortal palace master for many years. With this position vacant, people have come one after another, many... it has been like this since ancient times, so in this thousand years, everyone has listened to Lord Kunwu's arrangements."
Speaking of this, the old man gave a wry smile.
"Actually... the number of universes in the Nine Shores Heaven is numerous, so even if every session of ascenders will be rewarded with a universe, the probability of choosing the Moyang Universe is not high."
And this time, Master descended, we were also very surprised. I think Lord Kunwu was also surprised."
Xu Qing's gaze turned cold.
At this moment, he already understood some potential rules within the Nine Shores Heaven.
After all, the Nine Shores Heaven is too big and the number of universes is numerous, so it is impossible for every universe to have arrangements, so there are some ownerless universes.
These ownerless universes will naturally be targeted by people. After breaking in, relying on the human identity, they can also run rampant.
"This may also be an act tacitly approved by the Nine Shores Xiangong. After all, according to the consistent practice of the Fifth Star Ring, it is to choose the strong from the competition!"
"Survival of the fittest."
Xu Qing's gaze fell towards that strange Ink Earth area.
"But my arrival, these alien races can know, the possibility that this person doesn't know is not high."
"After knowing, he didn't choose to leave, but instead crushed that wisp of my divine sense. This is to be a bad guest."
"Since it is a bad guest, just drive him away."
Xu Qing was calm in his heart. He did not pay attention to the cultivators worshipping in all directions, but raised his foot, walked out of the immortal palace, walked out of the meteorite, and walked in the starry sky.
Time and space flowed under his feet, and the void rippled around him.
Xu Qing stepped on time, stepped on the void, and amidst the horror of the alien leaders in all directions, he used his divine sense as a guide, pulling the light lines of the Moyang Universe, like plucking a zither string...
With a hum.
Disappeared in an instant.
Although he left, the fluctuations in the hearts of the alien cultivators worshipping all around were extremely strong, as if there was a monstrous storm.
Especially those peak Sovereign cultivators among them, their hearts were roaring even more.
They were not ordinary people. In fact, if it weren't for the Fifth Star Ring's restrictions on them, they could have become immortals long ago, so their knowledge was naturally not bad.
And the more extraordinary their knowledge, the more their hearts churned at this moment.
"Time and space?"
"The constitution of this Master is actually time and space!"
"Although his cultivation is only Sovereign, and his immortal embryo is only phantom truth, the feeling he gave in that instant is definitely not at the Sovereign level!"
"This... what rank is he among the ascenders of this session?"
While these alien races were shaken in their hearts, within the Moyang Universe, where the fish head was located, at the edge of the area that divine sense could not probe, which looked like a black hole and a sun...
A middle-aged cultivator was sitting cross-legged.
This middle-aged cultivator had a cold expression, wore a brocade robe, and had long blue hair fluttering. At this moment, he was closing his eyes.
In his hand, he was holding a fishing rod!
The fishing line went into the black hole in front, and he was fishing!
And the next instant, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes opened suddenly, looking at the distant starry sky.
Almost the moment he looked, that starry sky suddenly wrinkled!
As if it had become a piece of paper, folded countless times in an instant, and then became a portal. Xu Qing's figure walked out from within.
The moment he appeared, Xu Qing was expressionless, his gaze fell on the middle-aged cultivator who was fishing, and then he looked at the Ink Earth black hole where the fishing line fell.
As for the starry sky behind him, it no longer wrinkled and returned to normal.
"Source quality?"
Xu Qing's gaze condensed.
Before, he only had a wisp of divine sense arrive and was quickly crushed. His attention was all on the bad guest, so it was difficult to perceive the mystery of the Ink Earth black hole.
Now that he came in person, in an instant, he felt that there was source quality power within the Moyang black hole.
But perhaps it was the specialty of the Ink Earth, or perhaps the black hole itself existed with suction, so the source quality within it could not overflow and could only be pulled out in this way of fishing.
But it still made Xu Qing's spirit lift.
Although this source quality aura is restrained and does not seem so easy to take out, one must know that source quality is the root of the upward star rings, and can even be said to be the most core energy in the entire upward star river.
It is also the key to the completion of the immortal embryo!
Such energy is precious just by existing!
"Is this the reason why the Moyang Universe is listed as a strategic resource?"
Xu Qing prepared to study it carefully later, then withdrew his gaze from the Moyang black hole and looked at the middle-aged cultivator who was staring at him.
"Leave here."
Xu Qing transmitted a low voice.
The middle-aged cultivator was Kunwu.
He looked at Xu Qing, his face sank, and he spoke lightly.
"Are you an ascender of this session?"
Xu Qing did not speak, just looked at Kunwu in front of him calmly.
Kunwu narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Qing carefully. He couldn't see through him, and he also sensed that although the other party was not a quasi-immortal, he possessed quasi-immortal combat power, especially the time and space fluctuations around Xu Qing.
This made him somewhat vigilant, so after thinking, he slowly transmitted words.
"I come from a great immortal sect. Although this universe was special in the past, it has now become ordinary... so I will borrow it first."
"Not much, three hundred years."
"As for the reward..."
Before Kunwu could finish his words, Xu Qing had already raised his right hand, and the time and space constitution in his body suddenly spread out at this moment.
To control the time of all living things in the Moyang Universe!
If it were another universe, with Xu Qing's current cultivation, he would naturally be unable to do this. After all, any universe is almost infinitely large.
But the Moyang Universe is different.
The moment he descended, he was already the master of the immortal palace of this universe. He and this Moyang Universe existed with a master-servant cause and effect. Here... it became his private universe.
Just like the God's Kingdom belonging to the god in the god system.
So, his divine sense could borrow this cause and effect to cover the entire universe before.
And now, his time and space constitution is also the same.
In an instant, the time of the entire Moyang Universe churned together, taken over by Xu Qing's constitution, coming from the void and formless.
And so, the sound of water flowing echoed.
The sound of waves came out.
A vast water vein meandered and flowed, becoming larger and larger, and finally formed a time river that shook the universe, appearing on Xu Qing's raised right hand in an instant!
That river was astonishing, containing the shadows of all living things, containing the spirits of all things, as if it had been the cradle of civilization since ancient times, nourishing the vast starry sky and countless living things.
At this moment, it was held by Xu Qing's constitution and descended.
The moment Xu Qing's right hand fell, it pressed down towards the bottom.
The starry sky shook, and the void distorted.
All the alien cultivators who perceived this scene were shaken in their hearts, and the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged and fishing also had his expression change greatly.
A strong sense of crisis rose in his heart. Before he could explain, Kunwu's quasi-immortal cultivation exploded fully. In an instant, flowers bloomed around him, grass grew, and trees appeared.
Endless plants appeared out of thin air in an instant, and grew at an astonishing speed, spreading across all the void around him.
It was as if a boundless primeval jungle had been drawn in the starry sky.
It even surged towards the falling time river.
It spread into the time river, grew in the river water, as if to turn that vast water vein into a part of the jungle!
Wanting to cover it!
This is Kunwu's constitution!
Plant Master.
Xu Qing was expressionless, and his falling right hand instantly formed a seal.
Immediately, within the Moyang Universe, those countless stars all trembled, and the time belonging to them was also extracted, turning into... gravel in the time river!
Each grain of gravel is a star.
Using stars as sand, the river had a "foundation" and "weight."
Pressed down again.
The vegetation in the river collapsed instantly, and the jungle outside the river also showed signs of withering.
However, Kunwu, as a quasi-immortal, is naturally extraordinary.
So the collapse was recovering, and the withering was also trying to reverse.
As for his body, he was no longer sitting cross-legged at this moment, but retreated suddenly, cold light flashing in his eyes.
He saw that Xu Qing was not simple.
"Sovereign cultivation, but possesses quasi-immortal combat power."
"No wonder you are unwilling to lend me this place, but... you are not a quasi-immortal after all!"
During the words, Kunwu's eyes revealed a sharp light, his hands raised, and he waved fiercely.
"Reverse the universe!"
The moment the words came out, all the plants here did not recover from the collapse, and the withered ones did not reverse, but... destroyed themselves, withered themselves.
In an instant, the boundless plants all died.
And their death formed thick death energy, which gathered instantly in Kunwu's voice.
"Borrow the death constitution, use death to fold life!"
The death energy condensed into a gray painting screen, within which Xu Qing's figure was being outlined.
This painting screen, like a death seal, would fold the life of the person drawn on it.
This is Kunwu's trump card, his development and expansion of his own plant constitution.
Facing this constitution, cold light flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. He sensed danger and waved his hand.
Immediately, the time river roared, changed the form of the river, turned into a vortex, and while rotating with a rumble, it pulled the wind, forming... a time and space storm!
No-space appeared.
The painting screen trembled. In this no-space, it became chaotic instantly, and Xu Qing's figure on it also blurred rapidly, unable to be outlined.
And the storm transformed by no-space headed straight for Kunwu.
Seeing his killing move resolved, Kunwu's face changed again, his body retreated rapidly, his heart fluctuated violently, and he spoke suddenly.
"To be able to control the constitution to this extent, what rank are you among the ascenders of this session?"
Xu Qing did not answer. Although he did not have many battles with quasi-immortals, he knew very well that any quasi-immortal had his own powerful points, especially this one, who was an ascender from previous sessions and was also a heaven-proud son himself.
Such a quasi-immortal is naturally stronger.
So the parallel constitution in his body moved.
Instantly, layers of time and space fell down with a roar.
Like a kaleidoscope opening!
Heavenly principles appeared!
Kunwu's pupils shrank, and a strong sense of crisis exploded in his heart instantly. He did not hesitate to take out the immortal slip that returned to his universe and teleported fiercely.
He didn't want to fight anymore!
He originally chose to be a bad guest and stay here, relying on his cultivation, and at the same time knowing that those newly ascended heaven-proud sons were mostly Sovereigns.
With his cultivation, although he was only ranked sixty-something among the ascenders back then, he had now become a quasi-immortal, so it was normal to bully the newcomers.
He himself had also come this way back then.
So he prepared to force him down.
After all, in his cognition, this Moyang Universe, although it had been brilliant in the past, was now just ordinary.
It was just that he didn't expect that the person who took over this universe would be so difficult to deal with and have such astonishing combat power.
Especially that kaleidoscope scene, which made his life-and-death crisis reach the extreme in an instant.
It seemed that if he was a step late, he would die.
This made him extremely horrified. At this moment, his figure blurred instantly, and he had already teleported.
Disappeared in an instant!
It was just that the heavenly principles had followed.
Xu Qing looked coldly, and after a long while, he raised his hand, and the heavenly principles returned, stained with blood.
At the same time, all the alien powerhouses in the Moyang Universe who were paying attention to this battle were shaken in their hearts, and they all lowered their heads and worshipped where Xu Qing was.
Like the doubt in Kunwu's heart before leaving, these alien powerhouses also had their own horror, and their hearts had guesses about Xu Qing's ranking...
At the same time, in the starry sky not very far from the Moyang Universe, separated by only seven or eight universe ranges, there was a universe called Tiandou.
At this moment, within the immortal palace of this Tiandou Universe, Kunwu's figure appeared from the teleportation.
The moment he appeared, he spat out a large mouthful of blood, with horror remaining in his eyes.
His face was even paler, his hair changed from blue to gray, showing signs of withering.
Even his aura was unstable. Even though he sat cross-legged immediately, sparing no cost to consume his immortal embryo, trying to stabilize, his cultivation fluctuated up and down, and finally failed to lock into a quasi-immortal.
The whole person decayed.
But fortunately, he did not decay too much and finally stopped at the state of peak Sovereign.
After a long while, he opened his eyes and gave a wry smile.
Recalling the dust that suddenly appeared during the teleportation process, he still felt palpitations.
"This person is definitely not an ordinary person. Among the newly ascended ascenders this time, he must be a famous one!"
Kunwu took a deep breath. He had some regrets about his previous behavior of staying in the Moyang Universe, so he sighed and began to transmit sound, asking his friends about the top ten list of ascenders this session.
After a long while, Kunwu, who received the reply, shook his body and opened his eyes wide.
"First..."
Kunwu was stunned for a moment, then relieved, secretly saying he was unlucky...
"No wonder he is so strong!"
But the next instant, he frowned again.
"That's not right. Normally, such a person should have obtained a special universe. As for Moyang, although it was special in the past, it has now become ordinary. Could it be... is there something in the Moyang Universe that I don't know?"
Kunwu hesitated, but finally shook his head and dismissed the idea of exploring again.
If Xu Qing was just an ordinary ascender, he wouldn't care. Even if he was in the top ten, he could call his fellow Taoists together. After all, coming from a great immortal mountain, he had connections in this Nine Shores Heaven.
But if he was the first, he knew very well that it was not someone he could provoke.
"The first among the ascenders of previous sessions will all be paid attention to by the Nine Shores Immortal Lord... such a person, cannot be provoked."
