Chapter 5068 Fiefdom
Deep in the starry sky, three enormous stars are arranged in a triangular pattern, extremely close to each other, their gravity pulling each other together to form a unique stellar force field.
Chiwei, Sirius, and the Years.
These three stars, though named as such, are each immensely vast, their size comparable to a complete ancient realm. A dazzling halo flows across their surfaces, a manifestation of the extremely concentrated power of laws.
Moreover, because these were once the fiefdoms of an Immortal Realm expert, even though that master has been gone for countless years, these three stars still possess an intense and pervasive aura of the Immortal Realm.
Those are the traces left by the Great Dao, the marks engraved by Heaven and Earth.
Especially the one in the center—the Red Star.
Looking across the distant void, the entire Crimson Star appeared a dark crimson, as if it had been soaked in endless divine blood. The aura of the Immortal Realm emanating from it was extremely powerful, reaching a level of abundance as vast as the sea and as turbulent as a surging tide. Furthermore, a visible crimson storm naturally formed around the star's perimeter, a phenomenon resulting from the collision of Immortal pressure and cosmic gales.
"Such terrifying pressure..."
Standing at the bow of the Void Boat, Su Bai gazed at the Crimson Star before him and couldn't help but sigh.
The sheer power of this pressure was imbued with an indomitable and tragic spirit, as if an ancient and indestructible battle spirit was still roaring deep within the stars, defying the will of heaven and earth.
"It seems that the Immortal Realm senior who once lived here had extremely high cultivation and a very deep obsession," Su Bai said in a deep voice.
Fu Yunxiu and Feng Shenye stood side by side beside him, while Shen Yue hid behind Su Bai, his face ashen. Even from such a distance, the oppressive aura emanating from him sent shivers down the spine of this inexperienced young man.
Fu Yunxiu gazed at the crimson star, a hint of reminiscence and awe in his eyes, and explained with a smile: "The senior who once lived here was named Chi Wei, a legendary figure from the ancient times of the Primordial Heavenly Court. This star originally had no name, and was later named after that senior."
“I once heard the Heavenly Lord mention a secret in his spare time,” Fu Yunxiu said in a low voice, sounding quite mysterious. “That Senior Chiwei had a fiery temper and astonishing combat power. During the great upheaval between gods and demons five hundred billion years ago, he once single-handedly ventured into the heart of the Demon Kingdom and engaged in an earth-shattering battle with one of the Demon Emperors!”
"The Demon Emperor?!" Su Bai's pupils contracted slightly.
Having encountered the Azure Spring Demon Emperor before, he was well aware of the terror of that level.
That was an existence standing at the peak of the seventh step of the Immortal Realm, a true overlord of the universe.
"Indeed, it was the Demon Emperor." Fu Yunxiu nodded. "That battle shattered the galaxy and obliterated the Great Dao. Although Senior Chiwei was severely injured in the end, he managed to tear a piece of flesh from the Demon Emperor's hand and escape unscathed. Unfortunately, after returning, his injuries were so severe that his very essence was damaged and he could not heal. Unwilling to stop there, he had no choice but to forcefully attempt to break through to a higher realm on Chiwei Star, trying to reshape his life force through this breakthrough. In the end... he failed and passed away here."
The Immortal Realm is known as eternal, with an immortal body and an indestructible soul. Under normal circumstances, one will not perish unless one dies in battle, or, like Chi Wei, fails to break through the barrier due to a Dao injury and dissolves oneself.
Fu Yunxiu's words greatly shocked Su Bai.
To be able to confront a Demon Emperor head-on and return alive, this Senior Chiwei's cultivation level is definitely not just that of an ordinary Immortal.
"It must have reached at least the sixth step of eternity, right? It might even have touched the threshold of the seventh step..." Su Bai secretly speculated, and valued this fiefdom even more.
"It's so powerful! No wonder the residual pressure is so domineering."
Fu Yunxiu continued, "It is said that the Demon Emperor who fought against Senior Chiwei was also seriously injured after returning and went into seclusion. At present, it is unknown whether that Demon Emperor is still alive or whether he has fallen in cultivation level. It can be said that Senior Chiwei single-handedly exchanged the long silence of a top-level combatant of the Demon Kingdom."
Su Bai nodded slightly, his gaze becoming solemn. "I never imagined that the former owner of this Crimson Star had such an astonishing identity and background. Thanks to the legacy of my senior, I, Su, will certainly not let the name of Crimson Star be tarnished."
Fu Yunxiu smiled and pointed to the stars below, saying, "This Chiwei Star is extremely harsh because the Great Dao collapsed when Senior Chiwei passed away, and the Immortal Laws merged into the earth's veins. It is a forbidden land for the weak, but a holy land for the strong. Currently, among the Heavenly Court's Divine Realm, only your cultivation and physical body can withstand the pressure of the Immortal Realm above. Anyone else, even an ordinary Heavenly King, would have their Dao Heart damaged if they stayed there for too long."
"Therefore, the Heavenly Lord bestowed this Crimson Star upon you, perhaps hoping that you can use the remaining Daoist energy here to aid your cultivation and take that step as soon as possible. Well, all good things must come to an end. We will not linger any longer. You can take a good look at this fiefdom that belongs only to you and make some plans."
As they spoke, Fu Yunxiu and Feng Shenye exchanged a glance, and both of them smiled and clasped their hands in greeting to Su Bai.
"I'll take my leave now, Sword God King! We'll come back for a drink another day once you've settled in!" Feng Shenye joked.
Su Bai smiled and returned the greeting with a fist salute, watching the two ride away on the divine rainbow and disappear into the end of the starry sky.
After they left, Shen Yue finally dared to catch his breath. He looked at the enormous crimson star before him and exclaimed, "Master, this will be our fiefdom from now on? It's so amazing! It feels countless times bigger than that sect we used to be in! But... why does it feel a little suffocating?"
Su Bai looked at his disciple's pathetic state and smiled helplessly. He raised his hand and pointed to the star in the distance that emitted a soft silver light, and then said, "The pressure of the Immortal Realm on this Chiwei Star is the result of Senior Chiwei's lifelong Dao Fruit. Your cultivation is still shallow and your foundation is not stable. You really can't withstand it. Forcing yourself to live here will do more harm than good."
"Go to that star over there, where the laws of time once comprehended the laws of time. The atmosphere there is relatively mild, and the flow of time is slightly different from the outside world, making it the most suitable place for your current cultivation."
"Yes, Master!" Upon hearing this, Shen Yue was overjoyed, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon. He could feel the immense attraction that silver, timeless star held for him.
Su Bai handed Shen Yue the fiefdom scroll of the Years and Stars, and infused it with divine power to protect him, allowing him to go there on his own.
After settling his disciples, Su Bai held the Crimson Gold Scroll of Crimson Star in his hand, took a deep breath, and transformed into a streak of light, rushing alone into the atmosphere of Crimson Star.
"boom!"
As soon as you enter, an immense pressure, as heavy as a mountain, presses in from all directions.
