Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

On the cliff, Liu Qiancui's brow furrowed slightly.

He looked down at the cliff beneath his feet, then looked up at the void ahead that seemed empty.

His gaze lingered for a full three breaths on the spot where Xu Zhangqing had just disappeared.

Deep in his eyes, something seemed to be flowing.

In fact, it was the Time Law in operation.

Rewinding.

Looking at what had just happened.

Seeing this scene, Xu Zhangqing did not panic.

Yuandao had already erased all traces of existence from the causal line cleanly.

The operation of Return to Origin broke breath, fluctuations, and even thoughts into nothingness.

Liu Qiancui looked for a moment, his brow furrowing deeper: "Strange, it ends here."

Breath, fluctuations, even the causal line have all been slashed cleanly.

The timeline seems to have been disturbed as well.

This Xu Zhangqing is more alert than expected."

Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing's pupils shrank slightly.

The other party did not hide it; he had come for him.

However, the two sides did not know each other at all and had never dealt with each other.

Coming specially to block him now, there must be some reason, and it was not with good intentions.

Liu Qiancui stood for a while, his gaze scanning back and forth in the void.

The direction he looked and Xu Zhangqing's hiding place had only a tiny deviation, almost sweeping past the edge.

But the erasure of causality combined with complete Space Law isolation ultimately formed a barrier that even Daodao Zhi Ya could not pierce.

After a while.

The space rift slowly closed, and those faint blue glows were drawn back into it.

Along with it, Liu Qiancui on the cliff was swallowed in as well.

A moment later, at the spot where the rift disappeared, not a single space fluctuation remained, as if everything just now had never happened.

The void returned to calm once more.

The Xingchen hung quietly in the distance, spiritual energy slowly pushing fine stardust.

However, Xu Zhangqing did not move.

He continued to maintain the operation of Return to Origin, five-colored primal light circulating within his body.

Waiting like this for a full three days and three nights, after confirming the other party had left no hidden hand or divine sense mark, did he lift the shielding.

Kong Ling revealed his form again, but the seven-colored light at his tail was restrained somewhat, leaving only a layer of extremely faint radiance barely maintaining his flight state.

Xu Zhangqing sat cross-legged on his back, unable to help but take a deep breath.

This person was truly not simple.

"This person's surname is Liu?"

"His given name is Qiancui?"

"His title is Daodao Zhi Ya?"

He knew Daodao Wuyang, but what was Daodao Zhi Ya?

Being targeted by such a person was definitely not a coincidence.

Xu Zhangqing's mind raced.

What did Liu Qiancui want from him?

He had never had a direct conflict with xiuxian zhe of the Endless Star Domain, nor had he taken any treasures belonging to the Endless Star Domain.

The only thing remotely related was the Star River Tripod.

But the Star River Tripod was obtained in the Chaos Sea, having nothing to do with the other party.

Could it be the grudges of the Daodao Zun's side, involving disciples?

After deep consideration, Xu Zhangqing finally ruled out this possibility.

If it were a matter of the Daodao Zun, the one who came would not be Liu Qiancui!

But regardless of the reason, a Great Power xiuxian zhe who could use Time Law to rewind causality, crossing star domains specially to find him, was dangerous enough in itself.

He put away the Innate Dragon Embryo, his gaze gradually sinking.

Cultivate or absorb.

The problem he had been agonizing over just now no longer needed agonizing.

The most urgent matter was to return to the Floating World Four Domains as soon as possible, back to the Beidou Xianfu.

Only by being near his master could he feel true safety!

……

……

Xu Zhangqing did not fly directly toward the Floating World Four Domains, but instead took a huge detour.

Entering the Endless Star Domain from the edge of Gui Xu's Outer Perimeter, he then advanced slowly along the most inconspicuous dark currents between star domains.

These dark currents were the lowest-grade spiritual energy channels between star domains, with thin energy; traditionally only Loose Cultivators and low-level cultivators used them.

Normally, a Spirit Transformation Peak cultivator taking such a channel was simply beneath his status.

But Xu Zhangqing didn't care about status, only safety.

Liu Qiancui being able to precisely block his necessary route out of Gui Xu showed he had a certain understanding of Xu Zhangqing's movements, and might even have predicted his return route.

Taking the main road at this time was courting death; taking a side door was slow, but had the advantage of concealment.

Along the way, Xu Zhangqing stopped three times, each time choosing a dead silence zone in the void without stars or spiritual energy flow.

Then he operated Return to Origin to the extreme, and only continued forward after confirming there were no abnormal fluctuations within ten thousand li around.

On the fourth day, seeing the outline of the Beidou Star Domain from afar, his alertness did not decrease but increased.

The border between the Floating World Four Domains and the Endless Star Domain was considered the easiest place to set an ambush.

Therefore, Xu Zhangqing circled this area for two more days, changed four different entry routes, and finally chose to borrow a path from the edge of Xiji Jianzhou, making a huge detour around the Outer Perimeter of the Three Enclosures Star Domain, before entering the Beidou Star Domain through a secondary Teleportation Array.

When he stepped onto the Beidou Xianfu, familiar spiritual energy rushed toward him.

Every Lingti plant, every mountain trend, every thread of spiritual energy flow here was a memory engraved in his bones.

Only at this moment did Xu Zhangqing remove Return to Origin from its semi-activated state, the five-colored primal light slowly converging, his nerves tense for several days finally relaxing a little.

But he did not go home.

Having been away from home for so long, of course he wanted to go back and take a look.

But he knew clearly that Liu Qiancui's matter had to be sent out immediately.

His master was hard to contact, so he had to first find several Eldest Senior Brothers to help solve his troubles.

A Great Power cultivator who could precisely lock onto Xu Zhangqing's position in the void definitely had something not simple behind him.

This matter being slow by one breath meant one more breath of risk.

Xu Zhangqing inquired and found that Eldest Senior Brother was still in the Beidou Xianfu.

He immediately went to find the other party.

Zhen Yuanzi sat on a futon in the center of the Cave Abode, with a volume of extremely ancient Bamboo Slip floating in front; the text on the Bamboo Slip was not carved on, but was projected as a phantom directly from the Timeline, every line of words constantly going back and forth between generation and extinction.

"Eldest Senior Brother!"

"What's wrong?"

"Someone blocked my road!"

No pleasantries, no formalities.

Xu Zhangqing went straight to the point and explained the whole matter.

"Hmph~"

After listening, Zhen Yuanzi let out a Cold Snort, the Time Flow around him also lagging along; he said in an unfriendly Tone: "A Liu Qiancui, daring to bully my junior brother, seeking death!"

The words had just fallen.

He raised his Right Hand, extended his Index Finger, and lightly pointed in the void.

Xu Zhangqing's Yuan Dao was countless times sharper than when he left the Chaos Sea; he could clearly sense that the moment Eldest Senior Brother's fingertip fell, the entire Timeline trembled along with it.

An invisible force silently traced back along the Timeline.

Passing through the Cave Abode, passing through the Xianfu Grand Array, passing through the Beidou Star Domain, passing through the Floating World Four Domains, passing through the Endless Star Domain, it precisely locked onto the Target.

Endless Star Domain.

Daodao Zhi Ya.

Liu Qiancui stood on the cliff, calculating something, when his complexion suddenly changed drastically.

He suddenly pushed both hands forward, Space Law and Cause and Effect Law unfolding simultaneously, his entire aura surging to the Limit, trying to Block something.

But he Blocked nothing.

He could Block space, could Block cause and effect, but could not Block time.

The power of Zhen Yuanzi's raised hand and finger penetrated all defenses.

The Daodao Zhi Ya under Liu Qiancui's feet had a layer shaved off from the Timeline.

The originally mirror-flat cliff top, within a few breaths, weathered and eroded, as if time had swallowed tens of thousands of years of ages.

Liu Qiancui retreated seven steps in a row; with each step he took, another crack appeared on the cliff face under his feet.

On the seventh step, only when his back hit the crisscrossing dark blue light marks on the cliff wall did he barely stabilize his figure.

However, it wasn't over; he lowered his head to look at his hand.

His skin relaxed and wrinkled at a speed visible to the Naked Eye, blue veins bulged one by one, his knuckles became thick and stiff.

The erosion from the Time Law caused the Cause and Effect Law within his Ti Nei to desperately resist, but each resistance consumed a full thousand years of lifespan!
