Chapter 1233

~8 min read 1,479 words

The new era actually arrived the moment Immortal Lord Jiuan abdicated.

The strong rise of Immortal Lord Mi Ming, under the feedback of destiny, had already spread throughout the entire Fifth Star Ring.

He succeeded his father Aurora Yishi, took charge of the Fifth Star Ring, became the current master of the Fifth Star Ring, commanded all living things, and his status was already supreme.

And now... his performance on the Fourth Star Ring battlefield was stunning, beheading two True Gods and comprehensively responsible for commanding the war!

The sensation of this matter caused destiny to churn, making the billions of cultivators of the Fifth Star Ring endlessly excited, and the sound of cheers echoed on every supply star.

At the same time, Xu Qing's identity also invisibly improved again.

He was the master of Aurora Heaven Beyond Heaven, had deep good karma with Mi Ming, not only assisted Mi Ming in changing from god to immortal, but also obtained rich destiny blessing in Mi Ming's first decree after becoming Immortal Lord.

All of this made all living things in the Fifth Star Ring know... there were even rumors that Immortal Lord Mi Ming regarded Xu Qing as a younger brother.

So this True Monarch Xu, in the next era, would have an extremely lofty status in the Fifth Star Ring.

Such status, such position, such destiny... made many parties in the Fifth Star Ring who had had direct or indirect conflicts with Xu Qing feel palpitations.

Especially uneasy and with strongly churning thoughts among them was Li Mengtu's master, Poison Monarch!

At this moment, he was also in the Fourth Star Ring, having just experienced a life-and-death battle in the starry sky, beheading a True God, and was sitting cross-legged on a gray meteorite, silent.

Around him were the subordinates who traveled with him.

If Xu Qing were here, he would definitely be able to recognize at a glance that those cultivators were exactly the small squad that had sought trouble for him back then.

It was just that compared to back then, there were not many left now, and each one was seriously injured and looked extremely exhausted.

Each was silent.

Only occasionally, they would look at Poison Monarch sitting at the very front, wanting to speak but stopping.

Poison Monarch did not look back, but with his realm, he naturally perceived everything behind him clearly.

Amidst the bitterness in his heart, there were also ripples.

He originally did not need to come to the battlefield.

But a few days ago, a decree transmitted from within the Fourth Star Ring forced him to come.

Although it was not Immortal Lord Mi Ming's order, it was issued by the War Command Tower.

Someone designated him and his subordinates to enter the Fourth Star Ring to participate in the war and gave a task.

As for who this person was, Poison Monarch had guesses in his heart, and he also knew that it didn't matter who it was, because there would always be someone who, in order to please a certain existence, would borrow the power of war to beat him.

"To please Xu Qing..."

Poison Monarch muttered, the bitterness even thicker.

Because if it were just participating in the war, with his cultivation base, it would be fine, but the task given to him was extremely cruel.

He had to behead nine True Gods of the same realm as himself!

In these few days, he had only beheaded one!

"There are many people who know about the matter between me and that Xu Qing... is this karma."

"I originally wanted to borrow his Dao to achieve myself, although I didn't succeed, the karma had already been planted."

"Now... it's beginning to backfire."

Poison Monarch recalled the past, and there was also unwillingness in his heart, quite a sense of fate.

He almost watched Xu Qing walk higher and higher step by step, until now, the other party didn't need to do anything, and there were people who, in order to please, came to beat him.

Thinking of this, Poison Monarch sighed lightly.

"The clone I sent, counting the time, should have arrived; I hope I can resolve this karma."

Poison Monarch turned his head and looked toward the direction of the Fifth Star Ring.

At the same time, in the Fifth Star Ring, in front of the earthy yellow supply star where Xu Qing was, a wretched figure appeared from the void.

This figure was an old man, with dark green poison clouds swirling outside his body; the appearance within the clouds was exactly the same as Poison Monarch, and the aura was also the same.

It was exactly the clone Poison Monarch had arranged to come here.

It was just that he had obviously encountered a strong enemy on the way; although he succeeded in coming here, his injuries were serious.

One could see that within the dark green poison clouds, his body was withered, with multiple injuries, and even his own constitutional laws emitted a sense of decay; the position of his left arm was broken at the root, and the wound was covered with wriggling flesh buds.

At this moment, gazing at the supply star, Poison Monarch's clone hesitated, then gritted his teeth fiercely and rushed straight toward the star.

After layers of screening, and led by a familiar person he had contacted in advance, a few hours later, he finally arrived in front of a star-gazing tower located in the southeast direction of this star.

That was a tower built of meteorites, standing on a high mountain, with rich Immortal Spirit aura permeating in all directions.

Here was Xu Qing's temporary residence.

Sent here, the familiar cultivator beside him did not find it convenient to continue and chose to step back a bit, speaking in a low voice.

"Poison Monarch, take care of yourself."

As he spoke, this person sighed in his heart.

He was one of the commanders of the garrison here and had also heard about the matter between Poison Monarch and Xu Qing; if he hadn't owed Poison Monarch a huge favor back then, he wouldn't have wanted to bring anyone here at this time.

Poison Monarch's clone nodded slightly upon hearing this, then looked at the star-gazing tower on the distant high mountain, flickered his body, and rushed straight toward the high tower.

Soon approaching, he stopped at a position a hundred feet away from the high tower, without any hesitation, bowed deeply toward the high tower, and a vicissitudes voice came from his mouth.

"An old friend has come, please see me, True Monarch."

The sound echoed, rippling through heaven and earth, but that star-gazing tower a hundred feet away did not respond with any sound.

A long time later, Poison Monarch's clone sighed lightly, raised his right hand and waved, and a bronze puppet the size of a palm was taken out by him, appearing in the void in front, and finally landing.

The appearance of this bronze puppet was consistent with Poison Monarch, and there was even a beating dark green heart in its chest cavity.

Gazing at this puppet, Poison Monarch revealed decisiveness in his eyes, raised his fingertip, and actually drew directly across his own neck; blood dripped, corroding out cracks in the void, finally gathering on that puppet.

Making this puppet lively.

And Poison Monarch himself began to dissipate, while bowing toward the high tower again.

"My main body is in the Fourth Star Ring, having accepted the task of beheading nine True Gods of the same realm, so I cannot visit in person; now I send this puppet for life-replacement."

"Once this puppet is unfolded, it can instantly transmit my main body to appear and fight for you."

"Life or death regardless, to settle the karma of forcing the Dao back then."

The sound echoed, and his body gradually dissipated.

The high tower still had no response.

In the distance, the commander who brought Poison Monarch here sighed in his heart, cupped his fists, and turned to leave.

A long time... the bronze puppet that landed on the ground suddenly blurred and disappeared from its original place.

When it appeared, it was shockingly inside the high tower, in Xu Qing's hand.

Gazing at this bronze puppet, Xu Qing had no expression, and after a long while, he spoke lightly.

"If I use it, the karma is settled; if I don't use it, the karma remains; everything depends on your fate."

As soon as these words came out, Poison Monarch's main body on the Fourth Star Ring battlefield groaned, and the karma line between him and Xu Qing snapped by fifty percent.

Sensing these, Poison Monarch sighed again; he was originally like an old farmer, and at this moment he looked even older.

"I shouldn't have stretched that foot back then, coveting his Dao..."
