The amount of origin essence had reached a shocking level.
After all, this was a True God!
In any upper star ring, a True God was the darling of the ring-an embodint of all the rules and laws of the upper realm.
Thus, the inherent distinction from Lower Immortals lay in Their unique gift: the trait of immortality.
As long as Their true na remained, as long as They remained rembered, a True God could never truly die.
This was the essence of the upper star ring—an immutable truth that could not be shaken.
Even a Venerable Immortal couldn't change it.
Even though he could suppress countless True Gods with a raise of his hand, he couldn't stop Them from returning.
After all, this was the realm of the gods!
Innately, immortals... were inferior to gods.
And there was only one Venerable Immortal.
Moreover, there was the legendary Divine God after the Venerable God. However, in the immortal system... the Venerable Immortal Realm was already the end.
There was no path above the Venerable Immortal Realm.
Or rather, it might exist but no one had found it yet.
Hence, to truly destroy a True God from the core, the only way was if the Venerable Immortal found a path in the immortal system and successfully stepped forward, reaching the legendary immortal realm that was on par with the Divine God Realm.
Only then could he do it!
It was precisely due to this innate ability tied to the essence of the upper realm that the thod of suppression was devised to imprison True Gods.
This approach left True Gods trapped in a state between life and death-deprived of freedom yet never truly dead-thus eliminating the possibility of resurrection.
Through such ans, the number of True Gods present in the world gradually diminished.
And so, at this mont, three lower-level beings, who in this True God's pri could have been crushed like insects with a re gesture, were frantically absorbing Its origin essence like parasites!
The clay fox gasped.
She felt that all of this was too stimulating!
Before this, She had never truly faced a True God!
The inheritance of gods in Her soul was imprinted with reverence and desire for the True God. All of this made Her instinctively choose to lower Her head.
She wouldn't even think about plundering.
Just like back then, when Xu Qing and Erniu plundered the flesh and blood of the fragnted- face, the three gods, Sun, Moon, and Star, were shaken but didn't dare to snatch it away and inflict karma.
It was the sa now.
The difference was that this True God was imprisoned, so even if there would be karma, it wouldn't be a big problem.
The other difference was that the clay fox was no longer in the Divine Fire Flawlessness stage. She had already stepped into the Divine Platform realm. She only needed to advance by another major realm for Her to potentially achieve the status of a True God!
Also... Xu Qing was absorbing as well!
With soone demonstrating in front of Her, the clay fox gritted Her teeth fiercely after taking a deep breath and chose to ignore the reverence for True Gods imprinted in Her soul inheritance.
Her eyes also turned crazy.
She started devouring.
In an instant, dense origin essence surged straight into the clay fox's body, replenishing Her divine form, nourishing Her divine soul, and refining Her divine authority. This continuous enhancent elevated Her level, pushing Her divine authority closer to divine aspect.
That comfortable feeling, the feeling of Her body becoming stronger, the feeling of Her life level advancing, caused the clay fox to involuntarily moan a few tis.
It was resonant.
Yet, neither Xu Qing nor the seaweed showed even the slightest ripple of reaction to this display.
The seaweed was excited.
Its life was very special. Although it was a nonhuman, it was the only one of its race in the entire Fifth Star Ring.
In other words, it was a race by itself.
Moreover, there was no need for it to cultivate. From the mont it was born, it would instinctively absorb the origin essence drifting in the cosmos to grow.
It didn't know how far it could grow.
It only knew that the origin essence it needed was incomparably huge. Over the years, even though it had been stealing origin essence, it had never reached maturity.
In its understanding, its mature form was comparable to a Lower Immortal or a True God. Thus, it had persevered tirelessly, striving without cease until this very mont. Now, it beheld hope—imrsed in it, surrounded by its glimring promise.
Hence, it devoured with all its might.
Compared to them, Xu Qing was already going all out.
He was aware that ti was short!
Even with the strength of the three parties, they wouldn't be able to stay here for too long. Hence, how much they could absorb in this short period depended on their respective
abilities.
At the next instant, the Space-Ti Ordinance was fully activated outside Xu Qing's body. In the overlapping universes, he, who ca from various space-tis, appeared together with Xu Qing from this space-ti...
Absorb!
Using this space-ti as a node, it connected to the other space-tis and guided all the space-ti. This way... Xu Qing's absorption speed instantly reached an astonishing level.
In an instant, 70% of the origin essence that spurted out of the sun's wound that the large sword stabbed into rushed toward Xu Qing.
He absorbed it.
Although he couldn't digest so much in an instant, Xu Qing was already prepared. The origin essence that couldn't be imdiately absorbed were sent to his bodies in other space-tis. They cooperated and continued to devour.
Such dense origin essence nourished Xu Qing's immortal embryo in an unprecedented
manner.
His mind instantly rumbled as his soul and body advanced. His immortal embryo also pushed
forward!
His immortal embryo was in Imperishable stage. At this mont, under this extre rise, it beca increasingly corporeal at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was filled with dense origin essence and shone with a resplendent light.
As this light circulated, the Imperishable aura on the immortal embryo rose even more.
It directly completed the Imperishable stage!
Xu Qing shuddered with excitent.
He was fully aware that the next step after the immortal embryo's Imperishable stage was the complete integration of Illusion of Truth and Imperishable. This fusion required an imnse amount of origin essence to sustain and complete.
Once the fusion was successfully fused into one, it would allow the immortal embryo to be
truly molded.
That ant that... Xu Qing's true cultivation would break through the Ruler Realm and step
into the Quasi Immortal Realm!
This opportunity and fortune made Xu Qing even crazier.
With the completion of the Imperishable stage, Xu Qing's Space-Ti Ordinance beca even fuller. The parallel space-tis it ford increased even more.
In an instant, it reached a hundred space-tis!
A hundred space-tis, a hundred versions of himself.
This caused the devouring to beco even faster.
Everything beca a positive cycle.
The clay fox and the seaweed grew even more frenzied, giving everything they had to seize as
much as they could.
Just like that, under the efforts of the three parties, the first wave of origin essence that
gushed out gradually thinned out a little. Seeing this, a glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. He tried his best to move the harvesting wooden token in his right hand deeper.
It attracted even more origin essence, causing it to be drawn forth once again, on the verge of
surging out in torrents.
The clay fox and seaweed excitedly waited to be fed.
However, just as the second wave of origin essence was drawn out and gushed upward...
Suddenly, a silver light flickered at the wound where the large sword had pierced. This light instantly beca piercing and monstrous, forming a ring-shaped halo. With the large sword as the center, it sealed the wound below.
Under this seal, the origin essence that gushed out was instantly blocked.
A rumbling sound echoed out. The origin essence... couldn't rush out!
At the sa ti, a deep and angry voice rang out from the silver light like an avalanche.
"Who dares to be so audacious as to covet this immortal's divine food?"
As soon as this voice rang out, killing intent rose, forming a destructive force that swept in all
directions.
This scene caused Xu Qing's eyes to narrow.
He could tell that the silver light was a seal. Moreover, after sensing it with his perception, he
realized that this seal didn't co from the sa source as the large sword. It was more like it
had been added later.
However, now wasn't the ti to think too much. The instant the killing intent erupted, he
had already retreated.
He was protected by the Space-Ti Ordinance in front and Parallel Ordinance in rear.
The mark ford by the fox beauty went all out and augnted Xu Qing, causing Xu Qing's
speed to be so fast that he almost brushed past the edge of the killing intent and rolled back.
Although he had only touched the edges, the terror of this killing intent still instantly
destroyed many of Xu Qing's space-ti bodies.
He spat out mouthfuls of blood.
Xu Qing didn't waste the blood he spat out. With every mouthful, he activated the blood
escape art and continued to teleport. After a series of rumbling sounds, he finally retreated to
a relatively safe area.
Here, Xu Qing's breathing was hurried as he fled again.
This lasted until he exited through the entrance.
The mont he stood in the starry sky, Xu Qing's mind finally relaxed a little. He first checked
his body and then checked the storage of origin essence in his parallel space-tis.
"If I digest all of this, I should be able to barely complete the immortal embryo and step into
the Quasi Immortal Realm!"
"However, it's only barely. If I can get more, I can ensure that there's nothing wrong..."
"After stepping into the Quasi Immortal Realm, my combat strength will also soar!"
Xu Qing licked his lips and looked at the sun with a deep gaze.
That killing intent just now was definitely not sothing a Quasi Immortal could possess.
"That's a Lower Immortal..."
"This place once bore the mark of a Lower Immortal's design, serving as their source for
harvesting origin essence-a prison drawn within boundaries... My arrival, akin to plucking a ripe fruit, has thus provoked the latent power of the seal."
Xu Qing's thoughts spun. After that, he turned his head and his gaze moved away from the
sun, landing on the huge seaweed.
After the absorption earlier, there was now an additional leaf on the seaweed. Although it was only a new leaf, its aura was clearly denser than before.
"You knew long ago, right?"
Xu Qing suddenly spoke.
The seaweed fell silent. After a long ti, its divine sense echoed.
"He was the last warden overseeing this cosmic prison within the Aurora Heaven's Beyond.
Back then, he was a Quasi Immortal, later stepping into the realm of Lower Immortal and switching allegiances. However, during his ascension to Immortal, sothing went awry, leaving him unable to depart from his place of seclusion."
The seaweed answered truthfully. After taking a bite of the origin essence, it also wanted to
continue, so it didn't hide anything.
Xu Qing fell into deep thought.
Although the death of the Aurora Immortal Lord caused the Aurora Immortal Palace to lose
its brilliance and also caused the upper echelons of Aurora Heaven's Beyond to face the calamity, it was only limited to immortals.
There were still many people who weren't qualified to attend the wedding and witness the
change of the hand duty.
"Therefore, if I don't resolve this seal, it will be extrely difficult for to continue
absorbing the origin essence. I don't want to give up just like that."
A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes.
Although the other party was an immortal, the Fifth Star Ring wasn't chaotic. "Gather everyone and leverage the authority of the Material Procurer... In the orderly confines of the Fifth Star Ring, even an immortal cannot act with impunity!" "Moreover, with more people, the burden of the sealing force can be shared. Yuanshan Su and Star Ring will also be required their cultivation levels will provide significant support." At the thought of this, Xu Qing made a decision and was about to summon others. Suddenly, the seaweed stirred and the jade slip on Xu Qing's body transmitted a ssage. The person who transmitted the voice was Star Ring!
"The Chaotic Sky Royal Family harbors secrets, and within them lies sothing I urgently need. However, they possess a Spirit Light Heaven's Beyond Exemption Token.
"This token shields them from being affected by the material procuring efforts. Moreover,
experts dwell within their ranks!"
"Now, they are using this token as their external shield and their internal experts as a
deterrent. Xu Qing, I will offer you half of what I acquire."
"Do you dare to co along?"
This ssage was clearly a request for help.
Such a stiff request for help suited Star Ring's arrogant personality.
Xu Qing raised his brows.
What he was thinking about was that since the Star Ring had chosen to seek help, it ant that
there was indeed sothing he urgently needed. On the other hand, it also ant that the experts he ntioned should really be very strong!
Hence, after so thought, Xu Qing transmitted his voice.
"I also have sothing that requires your cooperation in the future."
"Deal!" Star Ring didn't ask about the details and replied decisively.
"Deal!" Xu Qing put away the jade slip and was about to leave. However, after so thought,
he turned his head and looked at the seaweed. A strange glint appeared in his eyes as he
suddenly spoke.
"Can you leave this place?"
