Chapter 1376: The Starry River Descends Into The Mo
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The shocking events in Qinghe Town quietly spread, and the siege of Yecheng instantly collapsed. The armies of the other cities hastily retreated, and the surrounding hundreds of miles were plunged into awe and shock.
The title of a Martial Emperor was enough to make tens of thousands of soldiers retreat in fear. However, such worldly influence was ultimately limited. The rumors only spread for a thousand miles before they could no longer stir up any more waves.
The vastness of the Great Dao was boundless, and the strong were as numerous as the clouds.
The so-called strong in the mortal world were, in the end, merely fish in shallow waters.
Even though Haixing was a mortal star, it was not something a mere Martial Emperor could stir up. If one looked at the entire planet, Earth Immortals were just one among countless cultivators, not worth mentioning at all.
The quiet discussions and tremors in the several cities of the southern region were too ordinary to attract much attention. Not only did they not reach the ears of the immortal realms, but they didn't even spread beyond the small region.
At the center of the endless layers of immortal realms stood a magnificent palace.
Auspicious light filled the air, and countless immortal beasts roamed.
The main hall was extravagantly luxurious, with only Ouyang Tuo sitting on a jade chair, eyes closed in deep contemplation, still immersed in the pursuit of the Great Dao. He was the master of Haixing, the supreme ruler of this planet.
In his eyes, the various immortal realms were merely chess pieces in his hand. A single word from him could determine their rise or fall. Nothing in the world could make his expression change, as the ebb and flow of the ages was but a common occurrence.
Such a being, who held the lifeline of an entire star, had long seen through the rise and fall of the mortal world. If mortals were fortunate enough to witness him, they would surely revere him as a deity.
However.
Even such a noble and powerful being suddenly opened his eyes, the trembling in his gaze becoming more and more apparent, as if some earth-shattering event had occurred!
In the blink of an eye.
Several figures appeared outside the star palace, all looking panicked and suspicious. Ouyang Tuo, the master of Haixing, could no longer sit still. With a thought, he tore through the void and departed!
When he and his followers stood in the air.
The peaceful and serene sky was torn open by a terrifying rift, and countless starry phenomena appeared before their eyes, as if the entire starry river was about to pour in!
Instantly.
The powerful beings in the air were shocked and trembling, and even Ouyang Tuo was filled with fear!
"This!"
"What kind of being is so powerful that they can tear through the void to this place!?"
"Whoever it is, they are far beyond our capabilities. Even if we combined all the power of Haixing, we would still be no match for them!"
"Let us hope that the visitor is a friend and not an enemy, otherwise, it would be a world-ending disaster..."
"Everyone, look! Something seems to be coming through the starry river!"
A loud exclamation caused the pupils of dozens of powerful beings to shrink!
Under the intense gaze of everyone.
From the already torn sky, a starry palace slowly emerged, like a massive celestial palace traversing the universe, appearing in the sky like a bright moon.
Though it was billions of miles away, it was instantly before their eyes, unmoved by the chaotic flows of the cosmic void.
What kind of terrifying existence was this!?
It was unimaginable what kind of being could be the master of such a horrifying divine palace!
At first glance, everyone was struck dumb.
After a closer look, they felt their scalps tingling!
The palace in the air was shrouded in the power of the stars, exuding an aura of sacred inviolability. Even though the rift had closed, the imposing aura continued to pour out like divine punishment, completely stunning the powerful beings present.
The unknown massive palace was surrounded by endless Dao rhythms, as if it were the endpoint of the Great Dao itself.
The once peaceful and auspicious light of the immortal realm now seemed crude and vulgar in comparison. Ouyang Tuo felt a mix of reverence and inferiority, his eyes trembling uncontrollably.
As the celestial palace slowly descended, he felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him. He could no longer stand still and look up calmly. Without caring who the visitor was, he quickly led his followers to pay their respects!
Rushing into the clouds, he clasped his hands in salute, bowing his head nervously.
"This junior, Ouyang Tuo, master of Haixing, respectfully welcomes the senior!"
The many powerful beings behind him echoed with even greater reverence.
"We respectfully welcome the arrival of the great one!"
Ouyang Tuo and his followers waited for several breaths, the pressure on them increasing with each moment. Every breath felt like a thousand years of refining, their minds growing more and more tense.
The torment of those few seconds was more suffocating than any disaster they had ever experienced in their lives!
Until a calm voice came from the celestial palace.
"There is no need for such formalities."
"I am Gu Daofang, master of Yuanxing. I come with no ill intent, only to pay respects to a senior."
Hiss!
As soon as the words fell, Ouyang Tuo and the elders behind him gasped in shock!
Even though the ethereal voice was extremely calm, clearly restraining its pressure and showing great goodwill, it still caused their hearts to tremble even more, the shock greater than before!
Yuanxing was a legendary star, far more powerful than Haixing. The master of Yuanxing was an unimaginably powerful being. For such a person to personally visit Haixing was truly beyond their expectations...
Even more terrifying was that such a person claimed to be here to pay respects to a senior.
What kind of person could command such respect from the master of Yuanxing, to the point of lowering themselves to come here?
Since when did Haixing have such a senior?
It was truly unbelievable!
With just a few words, the master of Haixing's hands began to tremble, his reverence growing even deeper. He quickly and respectfully responded, leading the way without daring to entertain any further thoughts.
If even the star master was like this, the others were even more terrified.
This astonishing scene of reverence was naturally noticed by the masters of countless immortal realms. An indescribable shock spread, and countless figures hurried over.
As the celestial palace slowly descended.
The masters of Haixing's various immortal realms continuously paid their respects. Faced with such terrifying power, no one dared to show the slightest arrogance. Even the old monsters who had been in seclusion hurriedly emerged.
Before the palace had even come to a stop, more and more people came to pay their respects. The entire Haixing was shaken, and countless powerful auras followed obediently, all heading south!
The immortal realms...
The capital.
The state!
Only after traversing endless immortal realms and crossing billions of miles to approach the mortal state did the celestial palace slowly dissipate. A few figures stepped out, their feet treading on starry auspiciousness as they looked down upon the earth.
Countless powerful beings followed nervously, their eyes filled with reverence. Despite their growing curiosity, none dared to make a sound.
The sky was filled with figures like a dense constellation of stars, shocking the state master and numerous city lords into kowtowing in fear!
Auspicious light filled the sky, and countless signs of good fortune appeared.
Feeling the terrifying pressure of the divine beings descending from the heavens, the tens of thousands of people in Yecheng were struck dumb with fear. City Lord Chen Cangyun hurriedly appeared, about to kowtow to the sky.
Only then did he see that numerous city lords were already kowtowing outside the city gates, and the state master of the southern region was trembling like an ant, prostrating in the dirt.
The one at the very front seemed to be the master of Fengdu, who ruled over ten states?
This!
His face turned pale with shock, his heart nearly leaping out of his throat!
Good heavens...
That was the esteemed master of Fengzhou, a giant whose name one could only hear in legends. For an ordinary person to catch a glimpse of him was enough to boast about for years.
Now, even the master of Fengzhou wasn't qualified to stand at the front to greet the visitors?
What kind of great being had arrived!?
Trembling all over, he quickly buried his head in the dirt, joining the others in their trembling bows, not daring to utter a single extra word!
"We respectfully greet the great ones!"
After waiting respectfully for a few breaths, the area outside the city was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Not a single response came from the sky, and the constellation of stars had already moved south. The terrifying pressure instantly dissipated, but Chen Cangyun still didn't dare to rise, not even daring to breathe.
Only when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps did he hurriedly pick up his trembling body. Seeing the old state master frantically chasing after the procession, he ignored his weak legs and quickly followed the group...
Who were these visitors?
We dare not ask, we dare not speak...
Even without knowing the details, Chen Cangyun understood the terror of today. The visitors were undoubtedly beings of immense power, and he could not afford the slightest mistake, even if it cost him his life!
The city lords and state masters around him didn't dare to pause for even a breath, rushing to keep up.
Unfortunately, their cultivation as Martial Kings was too low. Even if they gritted their teeth and flew with all their might, they looked like mere ants in their haste, unable to even catch a glimpse of the constellation of stars.
They could only follow the aura of the master of Fengzhou, pushing their cultivation to the limit in their desperate pursuit. Even so, their cultivation was nearly exhausted!
Just as Chen Cangyun was about to burn his soul to keep up, the vast crowd ahead seemed to finally stop. He quietly let out a sigh of relief, suppressing his intense curiosity as he cautiously observed.
What he saw made his throat tighten in shock.
The street before him was filled with figures, all exuding terrifying auras. The further he looked, the more frightened he became. He quickly averted his gaze, feeling as if he were standing amidst countless deities, filled with awe and fear!
Such a terrifying scene was unheard of!
Chen Cangyun quietly stepped back, his movements becoming cautious, afraid that the slightest sound might offend any of the great beings and bring about a disaster that could destroy the city!
He obediently took a few steps back, instinctively looking around. To his surprise, the old locust tree and the street beneath his feet seemed familiar...
After a few cautious glances.
Chen Cangyun's eyes widened in shock, as if he had seen a ghost!
This... this seemed to be Qinghe Town.
Why would countless powerful beings, whom even the state master wasn't qualified to greet, gather here? What could this small town possibly have to attract the descent of the starry river into the mortal world?!
"Could it be..."
Chen Cangyun's thoughts raced. No matter how he thought about it, Qinghe Town had no such power. The only thing worth mentioning was Senior Yi Feng. Could it be that these great beings had come because of him?
At this thought.
Chen Cangyun's pupils trembled violently, as if he had stumbled upon some shocking truth. Around him, exclamations of surprise continued, and the atmosphere on the streets of Qinghe Town had already exploded!
