OUTSIDE OF TIME

Chapter 1572 - 1572 Source of Authority (3)



1572 Source of Authority (3)

The name was different but the meaning was the same.

This was because the Soul Accumulation wasn’t about harboring the divine, but the primordial spirit.

As for the essence of the Soul Accumulation realm, Xu Qing had probed it before he left Wanggu.

He understood that the foundation of this realm was to form one’s great world after comprehending enough laws and rules.

In the end, there were nine great worlds.

These nine great worlds could be uniform or inconsistent. They were determined by the thoughts and experiences of the cultivator.

However, no matter what kind of world it was, these were ultimately nutrients.

They were nutrients to push the cultivator to the Ruler Realm.

However, the path of Ruler had already been severed in Wanggu. Unless one possessed a special bloodline that could reconnect this path and sustain them during the breakthrough process, it was nearly impossible to step into this realm.

One reason for this was that there was an issue with the Heavenly Daos formed by the Summer Immortals in Wanggu back then.

However, the greatest reason was the influence of the fragmented-face on the Wanggu.

The god’s aura was too strong, so it was difficult for immortals to emerge.

This was because… the realm of Ruler was special.

It was the process of merging the nine great worlds to form the immortal embryo.

It was also a watershed between cultivators and immortals.

Once the immortal embryo was formed, one would be a Quasi Immortal, which was also the Great Emperor Realm.

For example, back then, the Empress inherited the bloodline of Mystic War and received the support of the human race’s fortune through the help of the Sword Holding Great Emperor, and was able to step into the Ruler Realm. However, that was her limit.

She could only advance so far, and ultimately, she could never reach the realm of the Great Emperor in her lifetime.

Moreover, after the god’s fragmented-face appeared, no new Great Emperor emerged in Wanggu.

Hence, she had no choice but to switch to cultivating the Divine Dao. She used the ritual to ignite the divine fire and used the immortal embryo she had never been able to form as fuel, causing the divine fire to erupt and burn bright. Finally, she stepped onto the Divine Platform.

From then on, she was cut off from the path of immortality.

This was what Xu Qing learned about the path of the Ruler and Quasi-Immortal Great Emperor in the Summer Immortal Palace before he left Wanggu.

As for authorities, in the records of the Summer Immortal Palace, this phenomenon had never appeared in the Profound Earth.

It only manifested after they arrived in Wanggu.

Initially, the Summer Immortal Palace believed it to be a form of origin essence, but the origin essence had already been evident among the cultivators of Profound Earth for a long time.

And there were clear differences between the two. The authority Dao marks were significantly more powerful.

The way it emerged was through the process of forming the immortal embryo within the Ruler realm, where it transformed into Immortal Dao.

This so-called Immortal Dao was an intangible force that surpassed the Heavenly Dao, and it manifested as authority Dao marks.

The Summer Immortal Palace didn’t understand why it appeared.

It was generally believed that the Dao marks of authority only emerged at the Ruler realm.

However, there were also exceptions. For example, some heaven’s chosens could manifest their authorities while still at the Soul Accumulation realm.

The timing of this manifestation became a benchmark in Wanggu for measuring the potential of these heaven’s chosens before the fragmented-face arrived.

As for the Summer Immortal, it was also called Lower Immortal…

They were beings who emerged from the transformation of the immortal embryo after reaching its peak and eventually breaking through to become Immortals.

In the records of the Summer Immortal Palace, the realm of the Summer Immortal was the limit of the Profound Earth Star Ring.

It was also known as the ninth step in the Profound Earth.

However, the battle prowess of the Summer Immortals was very different in the Profound Earth and Wanggu.

In the Profound Earth Star Ring, the Summer Immortal could envelop the entire star ring with a mere thought. Other than not being able to collapse the star ring, they were almost omnipotent.

However, in Wanggu, they couldn’t achieve this.

This discrepancy was analyzed and explained by the Summer Immortal Palace.

They understood that Wanggu was located in the Ninth Star Ring and recognized that such supreme celestial bodies numbered thirty-six in total.

The Ninth Star Ring, also known as the Brilliant Heaven Star Ring, was just one of these.

According to the understanding of the Summer Immortal Palace, these thirty-six star rings could be considered upper star rings.

To a certain extent, they could also be considered a higher realm.

In contrast, the Profound Earth was part of the lower star rings or a lower realm.

The Summer Immortal Palace believed that there were not only thirty-six such lower star rings corresponding to the upper star rings, but potentially more.

However, above the Profound Earth was Brilliant Heaven.

This was only the Summer Immortal Palace’s judgment, and there was no conclusive evidence.

However, it was because of this judgment that they had an answer to the discrepancies in the Summer Immortal’s combat strength.

The suppression in upper and lower star rings was different, so the combat strength displayed was also different.

It was like the difference between a large world and a small world.

In the small world, without any suppression, one could naturally command the weather.

However, in the large world, it was impossible.

Under the research of the Summer Immortal Palace, they believed that the thirty-six upper star rings were the land of gods.

The source of the divine authority, the Dao marks in the void, exerted a significant suppressive force across all thirty-six of the upper star rings.

This suppression affected both gods and cultivators.

Xu Qing actually didn’t feel much about this. This was because he had never been to the Profound Earth, so he didn’t know how terrifying his current cultivation would be in the Profound Earth.

Up until now, his entire life had been on the upper star ring.

“As for why the authorities formed by my five elements are special…”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and instinctively touched his chest.

Over there, a purple crystal was shining.

“What exactly is it…”

“When I was comprehending the Ten Extremities, in the totem I saw, there was an intact crystal that had shattered into ten fragments.”

“And this one of mine isn’t shattered. It’s intact.”
