Outside of Time - Chapter 1305

Chapter 1283 A Timeless Void

In the void of the Fifth Star Ring, an old man in straw sandals watched the dust and radiance rising from his hands, observing their dissipation and return.

Memories of the past seemed to flow before his eyes.

It was the life of his son, Aurora.

Finally, it froze on the image of him smiling bitterly as he sought death.

Then, a fierce light shone in the old man’s eyes, and an inexplicable pressure emanated from his body. This

affected the surrounding void, causing bubbles to appear one after another.

Within them lay the cycle of life and death, the arising and ceasing of causes and conditions, ultimately weaving a near-realistic fairy tale.

Then, he raised his aged right hand and grasped at the fairy tale before him!

It was as if he wanted to draw the figure from his memories from the past, bring it from illusion, and transform it from fairy tale into reality.

The next instant, everything became real!

As the bubbles trembled, figures of the Aurora Immortal Lord emerged, gathering under the old man’s guidance…

But at the same moment, the ripples of the entire Fifth Star Ring suddenly stopped, and all living things trembled imperceptibly.

An indescribable terror arose within the Fifth Star Ring.

It was as if a mystery sealed for millennia was about to break free…

The old man’s raised hand paused.

Finally, he lowered his hand, allowing the Aurora Immortal Lord, about to form, to dissipate again.

The ripples of the Fifth Star Ring also subsided.

Everything returned to its previous state.

Then, he closed his eyes.

Finally, a long sigh filled with regret and pain escaped his lips.

“I cannot bring you back…”

the old man murmured, looking at his palm.

“Give me some time…”

“And this scene is what you wanted to see…”

the old man whispered, then raised his hand again.

This time, he didn’t guide it, but turned his palm towards the Fourth Star Ring.

In the next instant, a gravitational vortex, seemingly capable of swallowing galaxies, suddenly erupted from the lines on his palm.

In a flash, it spread throughout the entire Fifth Star Ring.

At this moment, all the outer heavens, countless star fields, countless universes, and countless stars, even all living beings within the Fifth Star Ring, released their own unique fortune!

This power of fortune rose continuously, like dust merging into an hourglass of divine decree, collapsing towards the old man’s palm along a spiral trajectory.

Furthermore, countless stars were born and countless starlights formed during this process.

All the brilliance transformed into gentle silver tassels between his fingers,

merging with the fortune and finally settling in the old man’s palm.

The next moment, the old man suddenly clenched his fist! Instantly,

the entire Fifth Star Ring, unnoticed and unaware of the living beings, seemed to become a void painting under the absolute pressure of divine might.

All the stars are merely specks of light embedded in this illusory canvas, while countless black holes, amidst their lamentations, disintegrate into scattered ashes, becoming the patterns of this illusory canvas.

Trillions of lives solidify into amber-colored crystals.

This is not destruction, but a process of regrouping destiny, something that occurs at the moment each Immortal Lord ascends the throne.

And today, the old man will return the hidden millennia, releasing cause and effect.

Thus, the Nine Shores Era ends.

Thus, the Aurora Era begins!

And the Aurora Immortal Lord who should have ascended the throne has fallen, therefore… the destiny of the entire Fifth Star Ring, guided by the old man, will fall upon a single bloodline.

That is, the Aurora Young Master.

“I will wait for you to return…”

In the void, the old man spoke softly, the destiny of the entire Fifth Star Ring gathered in his palm transforming into an unstoppable torrent, traversing the star ring with supreme power, surging into… the primordial mother planet of the Fourth Star Ring!

Meanwhile, on the original mother planet of the Fourth Star Ring, Xu Qing listened to the words of the Aurora Young Master and watched the prosperity of all things in the world. Most of the confusion in his heart was dispelled!

“First, becoming a god, then a god-king, then next…”

“Next, in the entire thirty-six ascending star rings, is something probably unprecedented… changing from god to immortal!” The Spirit Phoenix Fairy spoke softly beside him.

Although he still suspected it, Xu Qing’s mind was still shaken at this moment.

He had seen people change their path to godhood, and more than once.

But he had never heard of even the slightest instance of changing one’s path to immortality!

This was related to the environment of the thirty-six star rings, after all, gods… are noble!

They couldn’t possibly lack the understanding to walk the path of immortality.

There must also be other factors that prevent gods from doing so!

While Xu Qing’s thoughts were surging, in mid-air, the Aurora Young Master, pulled by countless blood vessels, walked to the heavens and looked down at the earth.

Gazing upon the primordial mother planet, sensing the divine source emanating from the fourth star ring, and experiencing the richness of divinity, He suddenly smiled.

Though the smile appeared distorted, His words… were earth-shattering!

“The path of gods… is but a beast!”

As He spoke, He raised His right hand, and with a single wave, the blood vessels connecting Him to the primordial mother planet instantly churned violently.

Deep within the flesh and blood of the earth, where blood vessels connected to the earth’s veins, those blood vessels instantly separated, no longer fusing, but rapidly returning to their original state.

Simultaneously, the entire primordial mother planet roared, and the voice of the Aurora Young Master resounded throughout the fourth star ring.

“Cultivators seek enlightenment, alter their divine nature… and become immortals!”

Upon uttering these words, the primordial mother planet roared, and all the civilizations, all living beings, and all

things that had formed upon it withered in that instant! Not only the mother planet, but the true gods who worshipped here from the outside world trembled violently, and even the gods of the entire fourth star ring felt as if struck by lightning.

Countless temples collapsed, countless statues crumbled.

It was truly a single sound that shook all things!

In that instant, the heavens… changed!

A torrent of destiny, emanating from the fifth star ring, appeared in the fourth star ring, on the original mother planet, replacing the void here!

Gazing at the flowing light in the sky, the last wisp of confusion in Xu Qing’s heart completely dissipated.

He was a True Monarch, inherently blessed by the destiny of the fifth star ring, so looking at the sky now, he clearly sensed the source of this destiny!

“I understand…”

Xu Qing murmured.

This was the true plan of the Fifth Star Ring, prepared from the very beginning and implemented step by step until now!

The architect of this plan was the Immortal Venerable.

However, it had always been a prelude, never fully implemented, because the Immortal Venerable lacked a necessary condition.

Until, back in the Wanggu Continent of the Fifth Star Ring, the Immortal Venerable saw Xu Qing and Er Niu.

At that moment, the essential element of this plan was fulfilled.

Only then did all the subsequent events occur.

“A special location is also needed: the primordial mother planet, the birthplace of the first deity of the Fourth Star Ring.”

“A special time is also needed: the day when the Nine Shores Immortal Lord left office and the Aurora Immortal Lord succeeded him.”

“Thus, it can be truly completed…”

“Borrowing a god to become an Immortal Lord!!”
