Outside Of Time

Chapter 1767  Immortal Lord Xuan Hu

Fifth Star Ring, left-wing war zone!

Compared to when Xu Qing left, the left-wing war zone now appeared unusually empty.

Nearly 70% of the cultivator army had been dispatched to the Fourth Star Ring under the Venerable Immortalʼs decree, engaging in the final decisive battle against the enemy.

At this moment, only a few supply stars remained, each carrying out crucial missions.

These stars were vast in number, stretching from the left-wing war zone all the way into the Fourth Star Ring, with one appearing in almost every cosmic space.

They were dedicated to providing supplies and treating the wounded, continuously emitting immortal energy, functioning much like immortal towers.

Not only was the left-wing war zone arranged this way, but the right wing and central war zones also had their supply stars scattered across the Fourth Star Ring.

As the cultivator army advanced further into the Fourth Star Ring, the arrangement of these stars deepened, branching out and expanding their coverage.

After all, the war zone was vast, encompassing countless universes, and the ultimate goal of this war was complete occupation. Thus, the importance of logistical support was self-evident.

These transformed stars, like pieces on a chessboard, were constantly moved by powerful cultivators to dominate the entire battlefield.

At this moment, in the core area of the left-wing war zone of the Fifth Star Ring, there was also such a supply star.

It was a yellowish star suspended in the starry sky.

Surrounded by a belt of debris, the belt was heavily garrisoned by cultivators.

On the surface of the star, mountain ranges stretched endlessly, and yellow sand filled the sky. Each grain of sand had been tempered by immortal energy, containing a rich concentration of immortal power.

Numerous cultivators were gathered here, each performing their duties in an orderly and busy manner.

This star was of great significance, as it was the first supply star put into use after the full-scale war broke out in the left-wing war zone.

All other supply stars extended from this point toward the Fourth Star Ring.

Additionally, the star was equipped with numerous teleportation arrays of various sizes, operating day and night to transport endless supplies from the Fifth Star Ring to this star, which then distributed them to other supply stars.

This was the mission of this star.

Due to its importance, although the teleportation arrays on this star were connected to all other supply stars, during the war, it primarily handled one-way transportation of supplies and did not receive reverse transmissions from other supply stars.

Even the transfer of wounded followed this principle, with other supply stars handling such matters.

To strengthen its defense, a contingent of the cultivator army was stationed here, and even Immortal Lord Zhan Lu had left a clone to oversee the star.

Such arrangements ensured that the starʼs security met the stringent standards required by the war.

At this moment, as countless cultivators were busy with their tasks, the heavens and earth suddenly trembled inexplicably, and streams of multicolored light flowed across the sky.

This caused many cultivators to shudder, their divine senses converging on the source of the anomaly.

It was a teleportation array!

It had suddenly lit up!

The fluctuations it emitted were immediately detected by the cultivator responsible for the array, who realized that the activation of this array was not for the transportation of supplies from the Fifth Star Ring, but rather…

”Itʼs coming from the Fourth Star Ring, and itʼs a life-form transmission. The authority within it… belongs to an Immortal Lord!”

The moment this anomaly was detected, the cultivatorʼs heart raced, and without hesitation, he immediately reported the matter.

Almost as soon as the anomaly was reported, the light from the teleportation array surged, forming a brilliant beam that shot into the sky.

Soon, a massive vortex formed in the heavens, rumbling as it rotated.

Attracting countless gazes, a figure began to coalesce within the vortex.

Clad in black Daoist robes.

With long black hair tinged with purple.

And silver eyes.

The terrifying aura emanating from the figure caused the heavens and earth to tremble in unison.

Even the divine senses of the cultivators who had gathered were stirred.

The figure was none other than Xu Qing!

As he stood within the vortex and took a step forward, the winds and clouds shifted.

The void churned.

The unique immortal starlight of the Fifth Star Ring washed over him like a tide.

As Xu Qing stood in mid-air, his robes fluttered in the celestial winds, and countless star sands fell from his body, forming a winding galaxy in the void that rapidly spread across the sky.

All eyes were on him!

Even the fortune of the Fifth Star Ring descended, surrounding him and forming a purple aura.

As if welcoming his return.

Sensing the starlight and the familiar fortune around him, as well as the dense immortal energy, Xu Qingʼs eyes grew somewhat dazed.

Although he hadnʼt been gone for long, so much had happened that upon his return, Xu Qing felt as if an era had passed.

Before the unexpected incident involving Immortal Lord Zhan Lu and Lord God Chiuz, he had been at the mid-stage of Quasi Immortal.

Now… after escaping, exploring the Primordial Home Planet, and participating in the ascension and transformation of Young Master Aurora, his cultivation had greatly improved, reaching the peak of Quasi Immortal!

The changes in between were immense.

Recalling these events, Xu Qing couldnʼt help but feel a surge of emotions.

At this moment, the sound of bells echoed throughout the origin supply star, interrupting Xu Qingʼs thoughts.

Along with the bells, figures of cultivators stationed on the star appeared in the sky.

There were men and women, hailing from different universes of the Fifth Star Ring. The moment they saw Xu Qing, they immediately recognized him!

”Itʼs Xu Qing!”

The moment they recognized him, their expressions shifted, and they all bowed to Xu Qing.

”We welcome the True Monarch!”

Their voices resounded far and wide, filled with deep respect!

Clearly, the events that had transpired on the primordial home planet had been relayed to them in real-time.

This was the feedback of fortune.

Xu Qingʼs gaze swept over them, and then he suddenly looked up at the sky and bowed.

As he bowed, nine crimson suns appeared in the clouds, and the majestic figure of Immortal Lord Zhan Lu manifested in the sky.

A grand Daoist voice descended from the heavens.

”Xu Qing!”

As the voice echoed, a pill radiating with nine-colored light appeared before Xu Qing.

Within it, billions of star dust seemed to collapse into a vortex, and an aura akin to that of a Summer Immortal rose from within.

”The Ascension Immortal Pill.”

Xu Qingʼs eyes narrowed.

This pill was the very reason for his return.

The so-called Ascension Immortal Pill, also known as the Fifth Immortal Pill, could only be consumed with the blessing of fortune.

Therefore, to give it to someone else, the person would also need to be enveloped by fortune. Xu Qing had a solution for this—the fortune of the Fifth Star Ring he possessed could help share the pillʼs potent effects.

Additionally, Xu Qing had considered whether the fortune of Wanggu could produce a similar effect when giving the pill to someone else after his return.

These thoughts flashed through Xu Qingʼs mind as he reached out and stored the Ascension Immortal Pill.

Then, the gaze of Immortal Lord Zhan Luʼs clone in the sky swept over Xu Qingʼs silver-glowing eyes.

The Daoist voice rang out again.

”This pill was originally meant to be bestowed in the future, but the causality of the Aurora Era has accelerated the timeline.”

Xu Qing nodded, then spoke in a low voice.

”Thank you, Immortal Lord!”

”If thereʼs nothing else, this humble one wishes to leave the left-wing war zone and return to the Heavenʼs Beyond to seek enlightenment for a breakthrough.”

Immortal Lord Zhan Luʼs gaze deepened as he looked at Xu Qing, his voice slowly echoing.

”I suggest you rest here for a while. An old acquaintance of yours… wishes to see you.”

Xu Qing was puzzled, as many figures flashed through his mind, but he couldnʼt be sure who it was. He decided to ask directly.

”Immortal Lord, may I ask which old acquaintance you are referring to?”

”Immortal Lord Xuan Hu! He has countless avatars, experiencing the Dao in all star rings. Among his many avatars in the Ninth Star Ring, one is known as… Grandmaster Bai.”

”Currently, he is on the battlefield in the Fourth Star Ring, seeking to confirm something for you.”

Immortal Lord Zhan Lu spoke indifferently.

When the name ”Grandmaster Bai” reached Xu Qingʼs ears, his heart instantly churned, and his breathing became hurried.

He was a man who valued loyalty and righteousness deeply.

Whether it was Captain Lei from the past, Grandmaster Bai, or his master, these people held irreplaceable positions in his heart.

In a daze, Grandmaster Baiʼs parting words once again surfaced in Xu Qingʼs mind.

”The world is the guest house of all living beings. Time is a passerby from ancient times until now. As long as we donʼt die, we will meet again.”

As the memory of those words echoed, a deep sense of nostalgia appeared in Xu Qingʼs eyes.

He recalled the scenes of teaching about plants in the scavenger camp, the sorrow before the Purple Earth tombstone, and the mysterious old man with the medicine jar in the Aurora Immortal Palace.

”We will meet again.”

Xu Qing silently thought to himself.

He decided to stay on this star and wait for the arrival of the old man from his memories, while carefully adjusting his cultivation to ensure he remained in peak condition.

Additionally, he began organizing the fragments of his comprehension of the Tenth Extremity.

Time passed quietly.

A month went by in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Grandmaster Bai did not arrive, but Xu Qing did receive news that uplifted the entire Fifth Star Ring.

It was a report of victory in the war!

The Fifth Star Ringʼs army was advancing with unstoppable force, having destroyed numerous divine clans and occupied over 40% of the Fourth Star Ringʼs territory, including countless universes and obtaining vast resources.

At the same time, the Lord Gods of the Fourth Star Ring, abandoned by the Venerable God, were now in a life-and-death situation.

Five had chosen to leave, heading to other star rings.

Three had been confirmed dead!

Among the fallen, two had been slain by Immortal Lord Mi Ming, who had suddenly appeared on the battlefield!

As for the remaining ones, though They were still struggling, They were powerless against the tide of fate.

There was also news about Lord God Chiuz, who had been defeated by Immortal Lord Zhan Lu but had managed to escape using His innate abilities, His current whereabouts unknown.

At this moment, the Venerable Immortal issued a new decree!

Immortal Lord Mi Ming, while overseeing this era, would also take over from Immortal Lord Zhan Lu to fully command the star ring war.

The era of cultivators… was shining brighter than ever with this war!
