A biting wind howled, and the night was deep.

Before the portal of Time and Space, a flash of light pierced the Void, transcending all worldly phenomena.

To everyone's surprise, a fierce and ruthless attack suddenly arrived, aimed directly at the World Lord.

The Saber Qi erupted, instantly filling the sky. The first to react were the powerful World Lords who were the targets.

He was a dashing young man in white. Although he had traversed the Starry Sky for hundreds of thousands of years, time seemed to have left no trace on him. He still looked as dashing and spirited as ever.

He killed countless enemies throughout his life and was virtually unmatched in his field, leaving a glorious mark on history.

Whenever he looks back on the past, those prodigies who once stood at the pinnacle of their age group have long since turned to dust.

Time flies, washing away the glamour. When he turned around, he found that none of those who had accompanied him through that era were still there.

A lone boat sails past countless mountains, yet it stands tall and majestic!

However, at this moment, the white-robed World Lord encountered the most terrifying moment of his life.

The flashing blades swept away the myriad flavors of life, as if he had retraced his steps, his glory and splendor still intact, his charm undiminished.

It's as if the road had already been cut off, and he died in that cold winter when he was seventeen, on a very ordinary morning.

"I have not been defeated!"

The majestic sound echoed continuously in his mind, seemingly the last stand of the white-robed World Lord.

His life was brilliant, and he never wavered in his beliefs.

Then, he became even more confused. The rain of time swept away the clouds, and it seemed as if he had truly died long ago. All those years of glory and disgrace, all those countless triumphs, were just fantasies before his death, like a dream or a bubble.

"Fellow Daoist, wake up!!"

It wasn't until a roar exploded in his ears that the white-robed World Lord finally snapped out of his daze.

At this moment, the bluestone slabs were splattered with scalding blood, and the entire scene fell silent.

The white-robed World Lord's gaze followed the movement of people's eyes and saw a headless figure not far away, which looked very familiar.

He was instantly lost in thought and dejected.

It turned out that he had already been beheaded, his body and head separated.

Throughout the entire ordeal, he never saw who made the move, nor could he even grab the hem of their clothes.

"That person was terrifying; it took me several breaths to react after he drew his sword."

"Hmm, not only were they fast, but their Blade Art was also incredibly unpredictable; even that World Lord was caught off guard."

"With the grand gathering on the Other Shore of the Starry Sky taking place, there are too many powerful passersby. We should be more cautious in the future."

The murmurs of the people rose and fell, all reaching the ears of the white-robed World Lord.

He gradually pieced together the portrait of that terrifying and powerful enemy.

It was a young man dressed in blue, just like him, untouched by time, still full of youthful vigor.

But... he was lost in thought again, somewhat dazed.

"That was a Dao Ancestor!"

"Damn it, the thought that the person who beheaded the World Lord was just a Dao Ancestor is just too... outrageous."

"It's probably the most dazzling genius from some Starry Sky passing through this place; he has already entered the Time and Space portal."

"The Star Sea is magnificent, filled with countless heroes and valiant figures. Unlike the World Lord, that Dao Ancestor is destined to reach the pinnacle of the World Lord, illuminating the Star Sea."

Jiang Ping set foot in the peaceful star field.

Just like Northfall Star Creek, with a dominant force in charge, there has been no major turmoil.

Using the teleportation array here, he traversed dozens of territories in succession.

This method of travel was relatively fast, but compared to Fang Hua and his group, it was still much slower.

Of course, he did not seek the fortune of that grand event and could not participate in the competition of the Thousand Seas Sacred Hall; his goal was the more distant Immortal Dao Field.

Several days later, Jiang Ping appeared in a desolate Starry Sky.

This place is deathly still, devoid of any life Qi Mechanism, with only countless remnants of stars remaining.

With a hum, a dazzling rain of light appeared, and Jiang Ping used the mysteries of time to trace back through time, glimpsing a corner of the past.

His gaze instantly turned cold.

Just a few days ago, this place was bustling and vibrant, with several realms spanning across it, where all living beings thrived and multiplied.

However, demonic cultivators did not stop there. Vicious individuals like Ye Jing emerged one after another, choosing to feed on the world in order to improve their own cultivation.

Sulfuric acid!

Jiang Ping drew his sword and charged, as if he had rediscovered the days when he roamed the world with his sword on Xuanxin Island.

The perpetrator did not disappear after succeeding; he easily found them by following the Causality relationship.

He was a silver-haired youth who, after committing numerous evil deeds, did not choose to hide. Instead, he Anran drank in a neighboring star field, reminiscing about his masterpiece.

Just as the silver-haired youth was feeling smug, he suddenly felt a pang of fear, and the glint of a blade flashed in his eyes.

This silver-haired man is very strong; he is Chaos World Lord. Even though he is only at the mid-stage of the Dao Ancestor, he can still contend with World Lords.

Through the discussions of passersby, Jiang Ping learned that the other party was highly talented, no more than five hundred years old, yet he was approaching the Great Accomplishment World Lord realm, even more dazzling than Ye Jing.

Oh!

We're in the same boat as him.

That's alright then.

Countless Saber Qi swept across the Starry Sky, and his gaze pierced through the heavens.

Jiang Ping unleashed his two deadly attacks simultaneously, swiftly slaying his rivals in the same field without even breaking a sweat.

"My God!"

Countless outstanding individuals were stunned, as if witnessing a scene that would shake the world to its core.

Jiang Ping had no interest in ruling over the assembled geniuses; he turned his back on them and fled in panic.

A colossal being shattered the stars and arrived, revealing itself to be Great Accomplishment World Lord.

The Killing intent shook the entire star field.

Come to think of it, a demonic cultivator who committed such crimes can still enjoy life Anran; surely there must be Supreme Experts behind him.

Jiang Ping quietly activated the Golden Banner, severing all Causality, and traversed dozens of star regions.

After that, he began to keep a low profile.

As they approach the Other Shore the Starry Sky, the number of Supreme Experts increases.

In the Star Sea ten times larger than Northfall Star Creek, he saw a white-haired youth reigning supreme, his Dao Light radiating across dozens of Star Seas.

Those were the beings that truly stood at the end of the Great Dao, the Peerless Ancestor!

On that day, that being was preaching, and Jiang Ping was fortunate enough to make a pilgrimage, sitting in meditation for several days.

Thump!

He slightly raised his right hand, and in an instant, Heaven Opening and Earth Creation.

This is the ultimate technique of the Peerless Ancestor: World in the Palm.

"Unfortunately, it only contains the basic scriptures and is severely Incompleteness."

Jiang Ping felt a little regretful.

How could that forbidden being bear to let the world appreciate its complete secrets? It was merely a means to select disciples.

He looked up and saw three otherworldly men and women standing before the white-haired youth, enacting World in the Palm.

"How envious I am of the Peerless Ancestor's last disciple..."

Passersby were filled with envy; of the three exceptionally talented individuals, one would surely rise to prominence and become a disciple of Half-Step Eternity.

Ultimately, the youngest White-robed Woman stood out. She was exceptionally beautiful and, despite being just over a hundred years old, had already reached the Peak the Dao Ancestor.

A woman in White Skirt portrays World in the Palm, where a Bodhi Dao Tree instantly bursts forth from the Starry Sky, stretching a light-year away, its branches and leaves lush and its towering presence awe-inspiring.

"A flower is a world, a leaf is a Bodhi tree; if one can understand all the scriptures, one can sever the mortal body."

The white-haired youth reveals the ultimate power of his secret technique.

The crowd erupted in excitement, for this being had indeed slain Peerless Ancestor and astonished the Starry Sky for millions of years.

In retrospect, "World in the Palm" is the main reason for that glorious past.

Jiang Ping did not attend the White Skirt woman's Ceremony of Apprenticeship; instead, he quietly departed that day, traversing three Star Seas.

With a loud bang.

He performed his ultimate techniques in a desolate Starry Sky, creating miniature worlds in his palms, with the Bodhi Dao Tree spanning ten light-years.

Xuanhuang.

Unrivaled shock suddenly tore through the Sky Curtain, and on this day, all living beings witnessed the sun being extinguished once again.

Zhong Yong raised his eyes, his gaze heavy:

"The demonic cultivators have descended!"
