This was the most sacred moment in every Immortal Capital’s trial!

This was a moment that countless cultivators in the Fifth Star Ring dreamed of.

Those who obtained the qualifications would ascend to the Immortal Capital under the gaze of all living beings!

Xu Qing’s figure strode resolutely along the grandest of rainbows, pressing forward step by step, ever upward.

Behind him, in different parts of the four starfields, ninety-nine other cultivators who had earned the right to ascend to the Immortal Capital also advanced on their respective rainbows.

At this moment, they were the focus of the four great starfields.

At this moment, they were undoubtedly stars.

The four starfields were also relatively quiet, countless gazes gathering upon the sky.

Even though most people could only see a small part of the sky, the grandest rainbow was unmistakable to the powerful figures across the four starfields.

Under the watchful gaze of countless beings, those on the rainbows climbed ever higher, drawing closer to the aurora. Finally, they each disappeared one by one into the aurora, tinged red by its hue.

Above this aurora, however, was not a starry sky but a vast shroud of mist, large enough to conceal the stars themselves.

Rising distinctly from this fog stood a hundred ancient, timeworn pillars, their forms creating a stepped pattern. The central pillar was the tallest, with each subsequent one on either side slightly shorter, forming a shape reminiscent of ‘人1’.

All the pillars were colorful.

It was as though they had existed for countless years and witnessed countless glory, emitting endless dignity.

The light they emitted formed rainbows.

They landed in the four starfields under the aurora.

They became a guide that manifested in the eyes of all living beings.

As for the tallest platform in the center, the rainbow light it emitted was the most resplendent. Xu Qing’s figure was walking out of the aurora on this rainbow!

He was the first person among the hundred cultivators to walk out of the aurora.

As the aurora flowed beside him and continued forward, it was as though he had walked from the bottom of the river to the surface of the river.

The moment he left the river, Xu Qing saw the endless fog here and the hundred colorful pillars.

His steps did not falter; with each stride, he approached the high platform and finally arrived at the central pillar.

He stood there.

After that, he turned and looked down.

Below him was the vast aurora that was like a crimson sea.

Ninety-nine rainbows descended, each one bearing the figure of a cultivator stepping forward, moving toward their respective high platform.

Among the crowd, Xu Qing saw Zhou Zhengli.

Zhou Zhengli smiled humbly.

He saw Xie Lingzi.

Xie Lingzi lowered his head slightly.

He saw Yuanshan Su.

Yuanshan Su avoided Xu Qing’s gaze.

He saw Li Mengtu.

Li Mengtu looked a little excited.

He saw Qianjun and Piyi.

The two brothers were originally arrogant, but at this moment, they instinctively cowered.

Xu Qing’s gaze swept past them one by one.

He was unfamiliar with the vast majority of them. Among the few familiar figures, there was one less Jiang Fan and one more… a black-clothed youth!

That youth’s entire body emitted an aura of order and was surrounded by iron chains formed by starlight. When Xu Qing’s gaze landed on him, his gaze also landed on Xu Qing.

Star Ring!

Xu Qing’s heart was calm.

Xu Qing wasn’t too surprised that these people would appear on the rainbows.

He had also already sensed that Star Ring had revived.

He had even waited outside the Star Ring Tower before, but the other party didn’t come.

Hence, when he saw him again, Xu Qing’s heart didn’t fluctuate at all. After his gaze swept over, he calmly retracted it.

Xu Qing didn’t pay attention to the cultivators who were gradually walking onto their respective high platforms. He raised his head and looked at the fog above.

He had felt that the Fifth Star Ring didn’t seem very vast.

His sense of its ‘size’ emerged from comparing it to the Wanggu.

Fifth Star Ring had four major starfields—east, west, south, and north—each far surpassing the Wanggu in scale

Moreover, even if most of the cultivators used their entire lives to fly, they might not be able to fly out of many of the territories in the starfields.

However, Xu Qing still felt that it was lacking.

According to the star map of the 36 star rings he had seen back then, any star ring should be infinitely large.

However, after coming to the Fifth Star Ring, everything was different.

Of course, Xu Qing understood that this might have something to do with the Fifth Star Ring being flattened.

After all, the cosmos was layered, a boundless space of overlapping dimensions.

Yet the flattened Fifth Star Ring had taken on the form of a continent, which naturally altered one’s perception of its true vastness.

However, at the end of the day, these were only one of the reasons, and not the main reason.

Why was it like this? This question lingered in Xu Qing’s heart, a puzzle that had only deepened after he journeyed across the four starfields.

And now, standing atop this ancient platform, staring into the boundless mist, his thoughts stirred with a rising tide of anticipation.

He had a premonition.

The true form of the Fifth Star Ring… was about to reveal itself.

He was looking forward to it.

The other cultivators who came here were also looking forward to it. They didn’t have to wait for too long. The moment the last person walked onto their platform…

The fog suddenly churned.

An indescribable pressure seemed to permeate the fog. It was like an invisible hand was gently waving.

The thick fog that covered Xu Qing and the others instantly dispersed like the ebbing tide and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The vast starry sky appeared in their eyes!

This starry sky seemed boundless and there was a huge vortex that occupied 90% of the starry sky.

It seemed to be motionless, but upon careful perception, it also seemed to be spinning.

The high platforms Xu Qing and the others were on were insignificant compared to this majestic vortex.

Everyone could sense that in this astonishing vortex that occupied the starry sky, there were a large number of stars, lives, and dense immortal auras.

However, just as everyone was immersed in it, suddenly… it was as though a force had shrunk the starry sky.

The vortex before Xu Qing and the others shrank rapidly.

As it contracted, an even more vast star vortex emerged within the starry expanse.

The initial vortex seemed to have vanished—not because it disappeared, but because it became a minuscule fragment, merely one of billions within this larger, unfathomable star vortex.

Xu Qing’s heart trembled.

Yet, this was not the end. In the next instant, this colossal vortex itself began to shrink.

Xu Qing and the others then saw countless such awe-inspiring star vortices, each one coalescing into an even larger star map.

To be precise, this was a starfield!

At first glance, its size might have seemed incomprehensible, but after watching the layers upon layers of contraction, the vastness of this starfield seemed beyond description.

And still… it was not the final form.

In another instant, this starfield shrank again, revealing countless similar starfields around it, all converging to form a complete universe.

As this universe settled into their view, the stars blurred for a heartbeat—before even more universes came into focus, multiplying in their perceptions.

Within this overwhelming scene, these endless universes once more began to shrink.

The starry sky rumbled.

Finally… a majestic figure appeared in front of everyone.

This figure was not a true body but an awe-inspiring form made up of countless small galaxies, massive star systems, unending starfields, and boundless universes!

Its face was indistinct, but its supreme presence could be felt unmistakably.

However, this being was not the Venerable Immortal of the Fifth Star Ring.

For as this majestic form, composed of countless universes, appeared, the cosmos itself seemed to contract further, revealing ten additional towering figures alongside it!

Eleven in total!

They were like heavens beyond heavens!

They were the eleven Immortal Lords of the Fifth Star Ring!

They were all resplendent.

The moment they appeared, a tidal wave of shock surged in the hearts of all present.

The thunderous roar of emotions resonated through their beings as they all gazed at the towering forms before them.

Although Xu Qing couldn’t see one of them’s appearance clearly, his experience from the Immortal Palace allowed him to recognize the figure at a glance!

That was… the Nine Shores Immortal Lord!

The figure of the Nine Shores Immortal Lord was a little special compared to the other immortal lords.

In front of him, there was a ring formed by starlight.

The moment Xu Qing saw this ring, a hint of understanding rose in his heart.

It was the ring of the era.

This present age was the Nine Shores Era!

Xu Qing took a deep breath and suppressed the fluctuations in his heart. He endured the piercing feeling and looked at the other Immortal Lords. He wanted to find… Grandmaster Bai!

This lasted until he saw the ninth one.

That majestic figure seemed to be of an old man. Xu Qing couldn’t see the details but the medicinal pot in the figure’s hand was incomparably familiar to him.

The old man lowered his head slightly, as though his gaze had landed on Xu Qing. A smile appeared on his face.

Xu Qing also smiled and bowed.

After Xu Qing’s bow, the starry sky once again blurred, and the sensation of shrinking returned.

As the Heaven’s Beyonds where the eleven Immortal Lords were at grew smaller, a more colossal figure appeared behind them. This figure, exuding supreme divinity and unparalleled pressure, took over the entire expanse of the starry sky.

That was the source of immortals!

It was the sovereign of the Fifth Star Ring.

That was the… Venerable Immortal who had suppressed the Venerable God!

The eleven Heaven’s Beyonds surrounded his body.

This was the true Fifth Star Ring!

After being occupied by cultivators and undergoing the process of being flattened, it had been divided. Nearly all regions were now encompassed within the Heaven’s Beyonds.

As for the remaining four major starfields to the north, south, east, and west, they were the homeland!

They were the origin, the birthplace.

In truth, there was no real ‘Immortal Capital’ because that… was the Immortal Capital.

It was also the place of the direct descendants of the Fifth Star Ring!

All the slaughter and suffering were to nurture the direct descendants.

It was all for the future of the Fifth Star Ring.

Because the cultivators who came from there were of pure bloodline!

Their future carried a mission.

As for the beings in the eleven Heaven’s Beyonds, in a certain sense, they were merely collateral branches.

In fact, the vast majority of them were not even of the human race; they were simply bestowed with a fragment of human bloodline.

At that moment, there was no need to say anything. The instant everyone, including Xu Qing, saw this vast scene, they all had a realization.

“I see…”

Xu Qing mumbled.

At the same time, in the eleven Heaven’s Beyonds, the Nine Shores Immortal Lord, who was the ruler of this era, opened his eyes.

“This batch of ascendants will enter my Heaven’s Beyond.”
