Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The First Saint stepped forward first, reaching out to touch the mirror surface.

But what was reflected in the mirror was not his face, but a web of cause and effect.

From different angles and positions, different directions were derived, simply inconceivable.

Within this web of cause and effect, the Huanche Mirror captured thousands of cause-and-effect lines, among which several appeared with an extremely faint dark red distortion.

It seemed that the cause and effect had been distorted by the Lord of Red Clothes.

Xu Zhangqing originally intended to lean in and take a look at his own cause and effect.

But upon second thought, Yuan Dao had already avoided it, so even if he wanted to look, he couldn't see it.

Moreover, this secret could easily be exposed in front of the other two, so he gave up.

Venerable Fuxiao nodded slightly: "The cause-and-effect lock has no deviation, and the distortion mark has not missed any."

"This Huanche Mirror has been successfully refined."

Xu Zhangqing glanced at the two and asked, "What's next?"

The First Saint waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Next, it has nothing to do with you."

Venerable Fuxiao added on the side: "Of course, if Xu Qingchuan is curious, he can come with us to the Endless Star Domain."

"Once there, he will naturally know what to do."

Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing shook his head: "Forget it, it's too dangerous outside."

Seeing him say so, the First Saint and Venerable Fuxiao did not insist.

One gold and one silver, the two immediately rose from the ground, dragging two trails as they quickly departed.

Xu Zhangqing watched them disappear, then returned alone toward the direction of the Beidou Xianfu.

He flew not fast.

When they came, the three traveled together, and the First Saint and Venerable Fuxiao used the Space Folding Art to compress the entire journey to one-third of the normal time.

Now flying back alone, he was too lazy to bother with those fancy travel methods.

Having finally come out once, he simply used the most basic Escape Light, flying slowly along the fixed routes between star domains.

It was very quiet here, and no caravans passed by for the time being.

The stars in the distance blinked regularly, occasionally a few wandering meteorites drifted by.

Xu Zhangqing flew and flew, when suddenly a voice sounded beside his ear.

"Xu Zhangqing~"

"Hmm?"

"Xu Zhangqing~~"

"Who is it!"

"Xu Zhangqing~~~"

"This..."

The voice was clearly nearby, but he couldn't find where the person was.

Xu Zhangqing suddenly stopped in mid-air, his Divine Sense sweeping every position within ten thousand li around him.

However, there was not a single person.

Not even a single thing that could speak.

Several lifeless dead planets, a thin band of dust, and hundreds of thousands of meteorite fragments of various sizes.

He instinctively activated the Candle Dragon Eyes; his left eye's power of daylight illuminated the entire star domain down to the finest detail, while his right eye's power of night penetrated space to directly peer into the dark layers hidden within folds.

Then, he still saw nothing.

That voice seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and now it had disappeared out of thin air.

Xu Zhangqing's face showed a look of surprise and doubt; he stayed in place and waited for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, scanning back and forth with his Divine Sense three times.

But the result of each time was the same, always yielding nothing.

"Could it be an auditory hallucination?"

"But... is that possible?"

"I am at least at the Perfection of Void Refinement!"

A high-level cultivator who had lived for eight thousand years, his Divine Sense refinement far surpassed those of the same rank, and his Dao Heart was stable enough to show no flaw under the Time Authority of a Great Dao Venerable.

For such a person, the probability of auditory hallucinations was very, very low, even close to zero.

Moreover, Xu Zhangqing could be certain that there had indeed been a voice just now, ringing three times in a row.

After thinking it over, he withdrew the Candle Dragon Eyes, reactivated his Escape Light, and continued flying back.

After flying a distance, he suddenly stopped again, looking back at that empty star domain behind him.

Still nothing at all.

Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing no longer paid attention to it and continued on his journey.

On the journey ahead, everything was as usual.

No sound.

No obstruction.

No problem at all.

The Creation Green Lotus continued, as usual, to channel Creation Power into the Time Barrier.

The disciples of Lingzhi Si were still busy in the Spirit Fields.

The Wild River still flowed through its winding river course of nine bends and eighteen turns.

Everything was unchanged, exactly the same as before he left.

No, not the same.

Someone was standing outside the Bamboo Hut!

Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow: "Nine Extremes Heavenly King?"

The person standing outside was neither Baili Hong, who was close to him, nor the returned Ji Chen, but the Nine Extremes Heavenly King who had recommended him to join the Beidou Xianfu back then.

He was the second-in-command of the Beidou Xianfu, with very high cultivation.

In terms of seniority and strength, he firmly surpassed the First Personal Disciple Zhen Yuanzi.

Such a person stood with hands clasped behind his back outside the Bamboo Hut, obviously having waited for a while.

A flicker of surprise crossed Xu Zhangqing's heart, but his face showed no expression at all; after landing, he performed a proper bow: "Greetings, Heavenly King!"

The Nine Extremes Heavenly King did not speak.

Two star-cloud-like eyes rotated slowly, occasionally with faint starlight flickering, as if seriously scrutinizing him in a way Xu Zhangqing could not understand.

Xu Zhangqing was very calm about this.

He believed that from beginning to end he had not exposed any secrets at all.

Therefore, facing this scrutiny, he appeared quite composed and at ease.

But in his heart he was also curious: why did the Heavenly King come to find him?

In a sense, the other party could be considered Xu Zhangqing's guide into the Beidou Xianfu.

It was precisely because of him that he could join the Beidou Xianfu, and even become a personal disciple under the Great Dao Venerable.

It was just that the two rarely interacted, their relationship was not very good, but neither was it bad.

After a long time, Xu Zhangqing broke the silence first: "Does the Heavenly King have some business?"

The Nine Extremes Heavenly King withdrew his scrutinizing gaze: "You now are not the same as before."

Xu Zhangqing asked doubtfully: "Not the same in what way?"

The Nine Extremes Heavenly King said lightly: "You are too calm; no one trapped here would be so calm."

"Trapped?"

Xu Zhangqing smiled: "I don't think so; with someone protecting me and resources provided, where else could compare to this place!"

Upon hearing this, the Nine Extremes Heavenly King was stunned for a moment, obviously surprised by this answer, and then simply changed the subject: "You helped the Venerable Lord of Ten Thousand Worlds refine a supreme treasure of Creation, named the Han Ce Mirror?"

"Yes."

"Have you tested it?"

"Tested it; it can indeed reflect karma!"

The Nine Extremes Heavenly King was silent for two breaths, then raised his head, looking at the Creation Green Lotus slowly rotating, his tone heavier than before: "The situation outside is not optimistic.

The Red Tide of the Endless Star Domain is becoming increasingly intense.

However, the Lord of Red Clothes is not the only threat."

Xu Zhangqing made an "oh" sound, feeling curious about this.

The Nine Extremes Heavenly King continued: "On the Chaos Sea side, Zhen Yuanzi has already perceived that the Lord of Black Clothes is twisting Chaos Qi.

The Vacuum Homeland, that is, the Zhen Kong Chong Chao side, it is said that traces of suspected Outer Realm Evil Forces infiltration have also appeared.

If this continues, it will sooner or later spread to the Floating World Four Domains!"
