Under the Starry Sky, magnificent and wondrous sights appeared from time to time, even captivating the Xuanhuang Dao Ancestors for a moment.
From afar, Ji Xuan saw the appearance of these Dao Ancestors and couldn't help but curl his lips. He really couldn't understand how an indigenous realm from the edge of the Starry Sky could create Peerless Ancestral Artifact.
"Look, three suns have appeared in the sky!"
Yanran pointed to the core area of this Starry Sky.
There, a life-bearing star, far larger than Xuanhuang, stretched out, with three Blazing Suns shining overhead.
"If nothing unexpected happens, then that is the Milky Way Realm, the place where branches of Peerless Families reside."
Zhong Yong looked wary.
Although the Spirit Realm has the Great Accomplishment World Lord Fang Hua in charge, they are protected by the Xuanhuang Banner and have no fear.
But the Milky Way Realm is different. It truly has an overwhelming background, with Peerless Ancestor unapproachable and in their prime. Although they are far away under another Starry Sky, this branch possesses complete Peerless Ancestral Artifacts, which are far beyond what Xuanhuang can contend with.
"We should be more cautious when dealing with the beings of the Milky Way Realm in the future."
"A certain Dao Ancestor said solemnly."
"They probably aren't interested in my Xuanhuang, otherwise their powerful members would have shown up as soon as we arrived. But we still need to be careful and stay away from this world."
Zhong Yong said.
Having said that, he was about to manipulate the Xuanhuang Banner to penetrate Northfall Star Creek.
With a hum, the celestial light suddenly descended.
Ji Xuan, high above, looked down at the Xuanhuang Dao Ancestors and shouted, "Halt! You can only occupy the edge of Northfall Star Creek; you are not qualified to enter the Inner Circle."
The expressions of Yanran and the other Dao Ancestors changed slightly.
During their journey, they also communicated with the Dao Ancestor the Spirit Realm several times.
This place is a bustling hub, but it is also teeming with Starry Sky Raiders. Not only are there local Bandit Cultivators, but occasionally there are also powerful foreign invaders.
If they inhabit the edge, they become easy targets for the Bandit Cultivators, essentially Buffer Zone of the inner world, where the danger level skyrockets.
"You are Visitor from Afar, so it is not advisable to venture too far in for the time being. This place may seem peaceful, but it is actually quite powerful and entrenched in various factions. Bloodshed is likely to occur, and if you are targeted by any powerful realm, you will inevitably face trouble. It is best to rest and recuperate here for now."
World Lord Fang Hua spoke with a smile.
"I'll listen to Senior Fang."
Zhong Yong clasped his hands in thanks.
While explaining the local customs, the other party also reminded them to be discreet when necessary and not to flaunt their presence.
Xuanhuang definitely needs a long respite right now and can't afford to cause any more trouble.
Fang Hua paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "Well, if you don't mind, I can have one person stay behind to help you quickly familiarize yourselves with the environment here."
"Then Senior Xie!"
Zhong Yong agreed without hesitation and immediately bowed in thanks.
They definitely need a local to adapt to the situation and understand the stakes involved.
"Alright, Ji Xuan, you stay."
"What?!!"
Ji Xuan's eyes widened immediately, and he said somewhat reluctantly, "Senior, I promised an old friend that I would go to a banquet for drinks upon my return."
"That's settled then. You stay here and are not allowed to come back until at least a month later."
Fang Hua waved his hand and led the remaining Dao Ancestors away, not giving them a chance to refuse.
Although Ji Xuan was very unwilling, he had no choice but to obediently nod.
"Thank you for your help, young friend Ji!"
Zhong Yong politely cupped his hands in greeting and immediately had the Xuanhuang Banner tear open a crack, inviting the other party to enter Xuanhuang as a guest.
"Too cautious!"
Ji Xuan frowned. These Dao Ancestors from distant places were quite timid. Even though they had settled in Northfall Star Creek, they still kept that flag flying at all times.
However, despite his disdain for his senior's words, he still descended into the Xuanhuang interior through the crack.
"It's too rotten; no one can live there."
"Don't rush to entertain me. This is the entrance to the Northfall Star Creek, not a place for you to linger. You must go to the Southwestern Corner."
Afterwards, under the guidance of this genius Dao Ancestor, the golden banner, carrying Xuanhuang, set foot on its resting place.
It must be said that although this young Dao Ancestor had a hint of resentment on his face, he was quite decisive in his actions.
Seeing that this decaying world had even destroyed the sun, he immediately took the initiative to contribute, and divine light illuminated the Starry Sky, moving a red giant star from light-years away.
"It'll do alright, it's still missing the moon."
The rotation of the sun and moon is not unique to Xuanhuang; it belongs to the fundamental principles of the universe and has its own unique characteristics.
Therefore, Ji Xuan exerted his strength again. He pinched stars in his hand, gathered dust from the sky, and rubbed a Moon Star in his hand, which was even more magnificent than the moon that Xuanhuang had made before.
Jiang Ping watched from the sidelines, quite surprised. The opponent was quite strong, considered a top-tier cultivator even in the Dao Ancestor Realm, and the Qi Mechanism he unleashed was close to that of Zhong Yong.
Ji Xuan, who was casting a spell, seemed to notice Jiang Ping's gaze, glanced at him slightly, and said coldly:
"Learn from this, and you can do it too someday."
Jiang Ping: "..."
Zhong Yong stroked his white beard, a kind smile on his face.
He felt that the World Lord Fang Hua must have had a deeper meaning in letting Ji Xuan stay. This person looked arrogant and haughty, but he was a good person.
"One more immortal array is missing."
Ji Xuan spoke again, turning his head to ask, "Would you like me to set up a celestial array for Xuanhuang? Its defensive capabilities might be a bit weak, but it's incredibly effective at warning people. Few below the World Lord can escape its reach."
"The celestial arrays of the Spirit Realm are unfathomable, and are naturally highly sought after."
The cultivation system of the Spirit Realm is different from that of the Xuanhuang. After several encounters, Zhong Yong knew that this system was very powerful and should not be underestimated.
"Shouldn't we reconsider? A grand array that covers an entire realm requires an enormous amount of resources. Xuanhuang has many things to do right now; we shouldn't be wasting them like this."
Yanran couldn't help but send a telepathic message to Zhong Yong.
Ji Xuan could pluck the sun and pinch stars; they could do that too. It was nothing special.
However, to utilize the Spirit Realm's immortal array, a multitude of resources are required.
Xuanhuang already has civilized artifacts, so there's really no need for this extra expense.
However, she was clearly overthinking it. For Ji Xuan, who came from the second most powerful family in Northfall Star Creek, this was just a piece of cake.
On that day, array flags lined up in the Starry Sky, Runes outlining a faint golden net that continued to expand and radiate across the entire Starry Sky.
Afterwards, Zhong Yong wanted to offer compensation, but the man waved his hand and didn't seem to care.
"Young friend Ji's kindness will be forever remembered by Xuanhuang."
"There's no need for that. If you could talk to Senior Fang and ask him to let me stay for half a month less, that would be enough to make up for it."
Zhong Yong: "..."
Amidst the glittering Star Sea, a magnificent golden streak of light leaped in at breakneck speed, its Qi Mechanism startling multiple surrounding realms.
"Hmm? This realm is unfamiliar; it's not a local power."
"Yes, news spread half a year ago that a remarkable Visitor from Afar from afar had arrived in Northfall Star Creek. Could it be from this realm?"
"This doesn't make sense. If they were truly extraordinary, given the nature of the Milky Way Realm, they should have invited them to the core circle of the Northfall Star Creek long ago. Why would they be appearing in the Peripheral Region?"
"Perhaps the information differs from the truth."
The ancestral beings of all realms were alarmed, including many top-tier Dao Ancestors, one of whom even possessed Qi Mechanism incredibly close to that of the Lingguang Dao Ancestor of the Nine Profound Realms.
However, when they saw the Jinxia that illuminated the entire Starry Sky, they couldn't help but show their apprehension.
"This should not be underestimated. The golden light emanating from that banner is vast and unfathomable, and the aura it radiates far surpasses that of Ancient Dust Ancestor."
Gu Chen is the strongest being in the Southwestern Corner this Starry Sky, and he is already on the path to becoming World Lord.
Dressed in Black Robe, with graying temples, the Ancient Dust Ancestor looked surprised and asked, "Could it be a treasure of the World Lord level?"
"That's possible."
The Dao Ancestors, in their various forms, felt envious. Although Northfall Star Creek appeared peaceful on the surface, strife was never lacking, and the oppression of the weak by the powerful realms was a constant occurrence.
If one possesses a treasure of the World Lord level, while it may not grant absolute dominance here, it can at least prevent a great deal of trouble.
"Hmm? Their fates are similar to ours; they too fled here."
Dao Ancestor from a certain realm analyzed the faint light of Xuanhuang and was then startled.
They possessed Supreme Treasure level of World Lord or higher, yet they still fled in defeat. How terrifying must their enemies be?
With a loud bang!
Soon after, Xuanhuang settled the heavens and earth, taking root in the Southwestern Corner of Northfall Star Creek.
As dusk fell, Zhong Yong personally appeared at the Initial Land, inviting a group of Fate Child and a respectable Monarch to a welcoming feast for their distinguished guests.
"The genius Dao Ancestor of the Spirit Realm isn't much older than us?"
Many Dao Monarch were shocked upon learning the details.
"According to Dao Ancestor Ji Xuan, he is one of the top figures among his peers in the Spirit Realm, but in the entire Beiluoxingxi, he doesn't even rank in the top ten."
At the banquet, Xie Lingxu and the other monarchs were also extremely surprised to hear the words of this genius Dao Ancestor.
The other party may have meant it modestly, but there is no doubt that there is no shortage of geniuses under this Starry Sky, and so-called "Fate Child" are not uncommon.
At least when facing the person in front of them, they all felt inferior.
"Don't be discouraged. After all, people like me are few and far between. You are quite good. If you were born in the Spirit Realm, you could also achieve extraordinary things."
Ji Xuan waved his hand, not as a polite remark, but because although this world was corrupt, it had no shortage of geniuses. In the contemporary era alone, the quality of geniuses was higher than that of the Spirit Realm.
He pointed at the three kings Xie Lingxu Qi Tian, and said, "The three of you are truly remarkable. If it weren't for the constraints of the world, you would probably have already broken through to the next level, or even directly challenged our realm."
The three looked rather helpless upon hearing this.
Who can argue with that? They were highly talented, but faced enormous obstacles due to sudden changes in their environment; otherwise, they wouldn't have remained stagnant for decades.
Afterwards, Ji Xuan continued to point out the other Fate Child.
He wasn't particularly fond of the Xuanhuang Dao Ancestor, considering him too old, but he was quite talkative when facing young geniuses.
"Phoenix? Not bad, I hope you will become the ancestor of a phoenix."
"A descendant of the Candle Dragon? Not bad. If your talent were to reach another level, perhaps you could use your innate divine Supernatural power to open the door to unparalleled power."
"Ling Qinghe? That's a nice name."
"Um?"
When it was Yu Changqing's turn, Ji Xuan paused, then instantly thought of someone, and couldn't help but smile:
"I never imagined that Chaos Dao Monarch would be born in this world, and at such a young age."
"Indeed excellent. Northfall Star Creek will have another Chaos World Lord in the future!"
He looked at Yu Changqing a few more times and said with certainty, "Your talent should be the highest in this world, right?"
"Forehead..."
Yu Changqing paused for a moment, a strange glint in his eyes. He replied truthfully, "I am not worthy of such an honor; there is someone far above me."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan became interested. "Who is it?"
Jiang Ping.
"Him!"
Ji Xuan suddenly realized that, in fact, this time he had been surrounded by stars and pointed out the geniuses of the world, but one person was missing.
"Indeed, that kid is quite remarkable; he's the closest among your generation to reaching our level."
"Who says otherwise? Jiang Ping is practically Chaos World Lord."
Zhao Linkong's tone carried a hint of bitterness.
While he and Xie Lingxu and the others had stagnated for decades, that other person had made rapid progress, with no environment able to hinder his breakthroughs.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan froze, and couldn't help but ask again, "What did you say?"
