Beyond the Starry Sky.
On an Ancient Star with a diameter of over ten thousand miles, Jiang Ping was surrounded by Chaos Aura, and a lifelike Ancient Tree appeared behind him.
At first, the Ancient Tree was only three or four meters tall, but as time went by, it grew stronger and stronger.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Ancient Tree majestically spreads its branches to support the Sky Curtain.
With a bang, the Ancient Star, with a diameter of over ten thousand miles, was instantly pierced through and disintegrated.
In the end, the Ancient Tree burst through the Star Sea, spanning twenty light-years.
A single leaf fell, unleashing a world-destroying Divine Might that instantly extinguished a red giant star.
Dao Ancestor passed by in the distance and was instantly terrified.
They saw not only a leaf falling under the Blazing Sun, but also Ancient Tree rooted in the sky, its branches reaching for the Sky Curtain.
That tree was enormous, like Heavenly Pillar separating the heavens from the Yellow Springs, its leaves towering and bursting forth with Myriad Dao, as if nurturing a vast world.
They counted over a thousand green leaves on the Ancient Tree; if they were all shaken off and released simultaneously, the power would be unimaginable.
"No, the Ancient Tree does not reside in the Starry Sky Curtain, but in the palm of some being's hand!"
A powerful Dao Ancestor used his Eye Art to see through the truth, and then stared in disbelief.
This terrifying Ancient Tree was actually a Divine Might phenomenon erupting from someone's palm.
"Walk!"
"That being has been awakened; I may not be able to withstand it."
The only World Lord accompanying them changed his expression drastically and immediately took the Dao Ancestors with him, transforming into light and fleeing into the distance.
Jiang Ping opened his eyes, ignoring the passersby, and instead looked in the direction of his hometown.
He can still vaguely sense his two bodies and know about the Xuanhuang matter, but if the distance is greater, he will no longer be able to know.
"Everything is settled; we can now proceed with peace of mind."
Jiang Ping turned and left, continuing his journey to the stars and the sea.
Three days later, he was unable to resonate with his dual bodies.
However, the truth about my Dao-Self Body is so profound that it can provide one-way feedback to him, constantly guiding him on his path forward.
"Yes, the World in the Palm has become even stronger, adding its own unique concepts to the teachings of that white-haired youth."
Jiang Ping had encountered Incompleteness supreme techniques before, and he believed that he could also display a "World in the Palm" technique that was no weaker than that of the Peerless Ancestor.
Two months later, he encountered the World Lord guarding the gate again.
The Starry Sky is boundless. Compared to the peaceful star fields with unparalleled backgrounds, the territories supported only by Great Accomplishment World Lords are prone to war, with no one willing to submit to the other.
This time, Jiang Ping tested his skills in battle, and even with just the newly mastered Palm Divine Might, he was able to contend with the World Lord.
Twenty days later, he witnessed a horrifying scene in an ancient realm.
A colossal figure, capable of bursting through the Star Sea, stands on the Other Shore of the Starry Sky.
That being was too majestic, its body spanning 100,000 light-years. Even though it was infinitely far from Jiang Ping, the world-destroying aura spread here at an exaggerated speed, and even the Golden Banner was frantically issuing warnings.
However, the pressure quickly decreased, and the shockwaves that shook the Star Sea subsided significantly.
Jiang Ping was stern, intuitively sensing that the other party was in a very bad state.
It was an old man on his deathbed, his face full of wrinkles, almost all his hair gone, coughing up black blood constantly, and his ears crawling with rotting maggots.
"I am not content! I wish to become an immortal, an ancestor, and live forever in this world!!"
An angry and regretful roar echoed throughout the cosmic sea, shaking all the heavens and myriad realms.
Jiang Ping's hair stood on end, and his expression changed drastically.
He immediately entered the Star Gate and went straight to the Other Shore the Star Sea.
A breath later.
A creature shrouded in mist appeared above the old man's head.
He was clearly much smaller than the old man, yet the moment He appeared, Time and Space and space seemed to freeze, the vast Star Sea around Him surrendered, and all timelines and events flashed by in His eyes.
"Um?"
At one moment, He suddenly stopped, looked up in a certain direction, and murmured to himself:
"How could I, who am indestructible through countless eons, be restless?"
Is it just my imagination?
He couldn't help but calculate with his fingers, then shook his head:
"It must be my imagination; I was just a little emotionally stirred up by this pitiful little thing."
With a whoosh, he vanished from the spot.
A gust of wind blew by, and the Peerless Ancestor below, whose fame Gu Shuo, was instantly reduced to dust.
Stepping out of the Star Gate, Jiang Ping finally reached his destination.
This journey took about six months, which is not a short time.
However, compared to the many other travelers, it was still quite fast. Although there were some setbacks along the way, everything went smoothly.
When he looked up, the being that had just aweed all realms had vanished.
He was stunned for a moment. "It was actually Eternal Existence who took action personally."
"Indeed, if such beings did not reside in the world, there might truly be darkness and turmoil."
Jiang Ping began to examine the territory he was in.
This is an incomparably dazzling star field, vast in territory, more than twenty times larger than the Northfall Star Creek.
He saw massive Ancient Stars stretching across the sky, some of them similar in size to Xuanhuang, but each guarded by Great Accomplishment World Lord.
Some Ancient Stars, with diameters exceeding one light-year and enormous suns hanging high in the sky, were all forged by extraordinary beings.
"Peerless Family!"
Jiang Ping couldn't help but glance at those Ancient Stars a few more times.
Northfall Star Creek is ruled by a collateral branch with an unparalleled background, but here, it only occupies a few large Ancient Stars.
This place is home not only to Peerless Families but also to several transcendent sects, each with Peerless Dao Ancestor behind it, and some even have direct ties to eternal forces.
With a whoosh.
Jiang Ping saw a three-legged bird covered in flames streak across the sky, turning the entire Sky Curtain golden with countless streaks of crimson clouds.
That's the Golden Crow, a legendary divine bird.
After making a few inquiries, he learned the astonishing truth: a nest of Golden Crows was entrenched here, each possessing the strength of Great Accomplishment World Lord, with the two strongest divine birds being considered Half-Step Eternity.
"No wonder the Thousand Seas Sacred Hall chose this place to recruit people; it is indeed quite magnificent."
Jiang Ping determined that if every star field in the Starry Sky had a rating system, then Northfall Star Creek would be rated C, and this place would be rated S!
He entered the vast universe and stood at the center of all heavens and realms.
Jiang Ping rode the wind and headed straight for the core circle of this place.
He inquired along the way, appearing in various high-end restaurants, hoping to find out information about the Immortal Mountain.
It must be said that this place is indeed excessively prosperous. Not only does the Thousand Seas Sacred Hall have a deep influence here, but several other eternal forces also have strongholds here.
"The Immortal Mountain is a top-tier existence among the eternal forces in the Cosmic Sea, backed by three great beings, making it a significant power compared to the Thousand Seas Sacred Hall."
Jiang Ping was also startled when he heard the news.
The Thousand Seas Heaven is already a colossal entity spanning the universe, but the Immortal Mountain is even more profound.
"Yes, they also have outposts here."
Jiang Ping was slightly pleased; the trip had gone much more smoothly than he had imagined.
On his way to the base, he saw someone he knew.
On a large star, Fang Hua was discussing the Dao with someone, surrounded by a group of geniuses from Beiluoxingxi, as well as Ji Xuanyan and Li Yiren's clones.
News of their hometown hadn't reached them yet, but these people seemed to have suffered quite a blow, losing their former heroic spirit.
Before they arrived, they could be described as exceptionally talented and unparalleled geniuses, with the halo of the Four Heroes hanging high above Yan Xiangbei's head.
However, upon arriving at this place, he realized how vast the world was. There was a group of people who were younger than Yan Xiangbei Universe, yet they had already become Great Accomplishment World Lord and were considered top contenders for this grand event.
Even demonic cultivator Ye Jing has become an "elderly" participant in this competition.
Jiang Ping paused briefly, then walked away, heading towards his own stage.
I'll update today, but it'll be very late. Um, final volume.
