Chapter 1137: The Immortal Palace Opens

When his gaze swept over, the man, who was second only to the eight great stars in the Southern Star Region, immediately recognized Xu Qing!

The scenes of him chasing after the other party and letting the other party escape into the ferry immediately appeared in his mind.

But in the next moment, what followed was disbelief. It was as if lightning had exploded in his mind, and a storm raged in his heart.

He naturally… felt that Xu Qing was different!

He couldn't see it, so he couldn't recognize or understand it. However, with the spirit sense formed by his cultivation, he could sense an indescribably intense life and death crisis the moment he looked at it.

This sense of crisis could not even be described as the tip of a needle on his back. Therefore, it was not only his footsteps that paused.

There was also his heartbeat, his sea of consciousness, and his thoughts.

At this moment, it was as if they were facing their natural enemy!

His expression changed drastically.

As for Xu Qing, his expression was the same as ever. However, the coldness in his eyes affected space, causing ripples to appear in time and space to be sealed.

His fight with Li Mengtu was a battle of Dao. Li Mengtu was an upright person, and if he killed him, his Dao would be borrowed. His Time and Space Constitution also fulfilled the karma of Li Mengtu's ancestors.

In addition to his background, Xu Qing eventually gave up.

But this red-haired youth was different!

Thus, killing intent arose, and space-time was opened!

Heaven and Earth blurred and all things twisted. Xu Qing's space-time form of thought spread out, and even though he was still sitting there cross-legged, shadows began to descend upon this part of space-time.

The red-haired young man's pause seemed to last for an eternity, and Xu Qing could see everything clearly.

It was like a painting.

Be it the past or the future, everything … had been clearly seen.

Then, Xu Qing raised his hand and poked lightly.

It was as if the person outside the painting had stretched out his hand and poked the painting, poking a hole in the canvas. The person in the painting, along with his surroundings, was also torn into pieces.

In reality, the space around the red-haired young man collapsed, and time was thrown into chaos.

At this moment, his body was suppressed by an indescribably vast power that surpassed what he could endure.

His soul couldn't escape either, and it let out a mournful howl.

No matter how hard he tried, no matter how he struggled, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't… dodge or block it!

His body and soul were about to be destroyed.

Right at this moment, Jiang Fan, who was also from the Southern Region, raised his head and coughed lightly.

"Fellow Daoist, why are you so angry?"

"What's the matter? Why don't you say it? You don't have to hurt people with the constitution the moment you meet."

As he spoke, a layer of fog appeared out of thin air around the red-haired young man. It enveloped his entire body, concealing everything.

It was as if a painting had been painted black.

And this scene could not be seen by those who did not possess the constitution.

Only those who possessed the constitution could clearly see the inner substance and the mist that covered the red-haired youth.

This mist was extraordinary, possessing the power of the constitution.

So that Xu Qing could not "see"

It was precisely the eruption of the earth's qi, the heavens did not respond, the sun's fog, the fog was obscured.

Jiang Fan's constitution was obscurity. His appearance was fog.

Under the cover of this fog, it was as if the red-haired youth did not exist, as if he had been plucked out of Xu Qing's Space-Time Constitution.

The only thing that could go against the Constitution was the Constitution!

This was also the first time that Xu Qing had personally experienced the confrontation between two factions.

That mist was surging. It was mysterious, hiding killing intent, containing death. It displayed a terror that would cause the hearts of others to palpitate. However, in Xu Qing's mind, there was nothing.

At this moment, although the Constitution of the Mist was extraordinary and strange, it was a bit thin.

Thus, Xu Qing sat cross-legged on the ground and spoke calmly.

"Now is my emptiness, this emptiness is my time, disperse!"

At the same time he spoke, Xu Qing lifted his hand. He did not care about the dark fog that filled the air and grabbed at it.

With this grab, the space-time there immediately began to fluctuate violently.

This fluctuation came from the past, causing the past to rise and collapse, the future to become a bubble, and the present to become dust.

Time and space were affected as ripples came from different times.

These waves converged and finally formed… a space-time storm.

As the storm rose, Jiang Fan's dark fog was only able to last for a few breaths of time. Then, it was unable to last any longer and suddenly dispersed.

The Qi of the Earth, when the Heavens did not respond, turned into fog.

If the heavens respond, this fog cannot exist!

Thus, the red-haired young man who had been concealed revealed himself once again.

He was still in Xu Qing's space-time, nothing had changed.

Furthermore, as Jiang Fan's fog dispersed, Xu Qing's raised hand was no longer obstructed by anything.

He had grasped the red-haired youth's past, future, and present!

He gave it a hard squeeze!

Cracking sounds reverberated in the ears of all living beings.

The red-haired young man's body trembled. His thoughts of unwillingness became eternal, and his feelings of despair became nothing.

His past, everything that already existed, completely collapsed and shattered at this moment.

His future, everything that had yet to happen, instantly burst like a bubble and was completely annihilated.

The present body that was left behind existed alone in this space-time.

But without the support of the past and the guidance of the future, the present… had become a tree without roots.

It cannot exist.

Thus, in front of everyone's eyes, the red-haired young man's body and soul silently collapsed into pieces. When the wine fell to the ground, it turned into dust.

Slaughter.

Everyone present, including the Cultivators who were not Perfect Cultivators, felt their hearts tremble. This was something they could not understand, something they could not comprehend, something they could not recognize. As soon as it blew by, they disappeared from the world.

Silence reigned in all directions.

However, it made them realize once again… how terrifying Constitution was.

Fortunately, there were very few Sovereign Realm cultivators in the fifth star ring who possessed perfect treasures and Constitution cultivators.

Amidst the silence of the crowd, Jiang Fan raised his eyes and looked at Xu Qing.

The reason why he acted earlier was not because of his deep friendship with the red-haired young man. In fact, the two of them were just acquaintances.

The main reason he had taken action was because they were both from the Southern Domain.

If he couldn't see it, it wouldn't be a big deal. But to see Southern Domain Cultivators being slaughtered right in front of him made him very unhappy.

But Xu Qing's constitution… caused fear to rise in his heart. He had never heard of such a person appearing in the Western Regions.

Moreover, he had seen Li Mengtu pay him a visit.

Thus, he fell into deep thought.

Yuanshan Su beside him had a weird glow in her eyes as she looked at Xu Qing.

Her constitution was a distant mountain, but it was also a weight.

Facing the gazes of the two, Xu Qing's expression did not change in the slightest as he calmly meditated.

However, Li Mengtu, who was next to him, was staring at Jiang Fan and Yuanshan Su with a sharp gaze. His stance was clear in his eyes.

Thus, Wei Fan, who was already feeling apprehensive, slowly revealed a smile on his face. His expression was gentle, as if he hadn't interfered at all.

"Fellow Daoist, your constitution is quite extraordinary."

With that, he closed his eyes.

As for Yuanshan Su, she also smiled. In the gaze she looked at Xu Qing, other than weight, there was also some interest.

Xu Qing ignored this.

Everyone was in awe of this scene. To the Old Ancestor of the Earth Spirit Clan, this was even more exciting.

Compared to the Eight Great Stars, the Earth Spirit Ancestor knew that no matter if it was his identity or position, he was far inferior. As for the battle between Constitution and Constitution, even if he could not see it, his position allowed him to observe it more directly than others.

At this moment, a sense of relief rose in his heart.

He rejoiced that he had not fought with Xu Qing in the Time Desert.

Otherwise…

The Earth Spirit Ancestor took a deep breath. Suddenly, his mind became lively. He felt that this was an opportunity for him.

An opportunity that others could only dream of.

Thus, the Earth Spirit Ancestor spoke in a low and respectful voice.

"My Lord, I just recalled that there is still an important piece of information regarding the Aurora Immortal Palace…"

The way he addressed her had also unknowingly changed.

Hearing this, Xu Qing looked at the Earth Spirit Ancestor, waiting for him to speak.

"Milord, I've said before that there are already eight levels in the Aurora Immortal Palace."

"And the reason for determining the number of floors one enters is because every floor has a boundary stele that marks the number of floors."

"Generally speaking, Sovereigns can only enter the third level of the world. Only Peak Sovereigns or Quasi-Immortals can enter the fourth level and beyond."

"Through this, one can obtain more opportunities and good fortune. Legend has it that if one can enter the eighth level, one can obtain the opportunity to become a Summer Immortal."

"This is also the reason that attracts quasi-immortals to come here!"

"When the Land of the Fallen Immortals opens, everyone will arrive at the same area after entering. That is the welcoming platform of the Immortal Palace."

"Everyone will have to choose their path here, and there are three paths."

"The first path is ahead. It is said that there is a bridge there."

"The second path is on the left. It's a quiet path."

"As for the right, there is a black river with no end in sight. That is the third path."

"Since ancient times, there have only been three ways to enter the Aurora Immortal Palace."

"My Lord, you must remember that you cannot step on the bridge. According to the records, those who step on it will die."

"Although the path on the left is also dangerous, there is an 80% chance of survival. It is the best choice."

The Earth Spirit Ancestor didn't hide anything and told him everything he knew.

"On the right."

Xu Qing asked.

The one who replied was not the Earth Spirit Ancestor, but Li Mengtu.

"Death is certain."

After saying that, Li Mengtu looked at Xu Qing.

"What this person said is true. Of the three paths, the left is the safest, but the difference is not small."

"Take the path on the left. At the end, you'll enter the third level. There's no way to go to the first or second level."

"If you take the bridge, you'll reach the second level of the world. Although it's dangerous, there are even more opportunities. However, if you take this path, you won't be able to enter the first level."

"As for the right path, it's the most complete path. You'll enter the world of the first level, but until now, I've never heard of anyone surviving this path.

Xu Qing nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something and looked towards the center of the plain where the stone stele was.

Spiritual energy gushed out from there, and a deafening sound reverberated through the air. Within the rumbling, the spiritual energy was like a tide, causing that area to erupt like the eye of a sea.

A strong wind blew.

The spirit tide appeared.

Instantly, it swept out in all directions, covering the entire plain.

Looking from afar, the spirits were like a rising tide, passing through everyone's bodies as if they were in the middle of an ocean.

At the same time, a vast and majestic immortal palace slowly appeared above the Spiritual Sea.

All of a sudden, multicolored light shone brilliantly.

After all, everyone was extremely small compared to it. It was as if they had entered a kingdom of giants.

In the distance, even more figures whizzed over.
