Beidou Ancient Star, outside the domain.
This book is first published on the entire network
Several years have passed, and the Immortal Gate standing deep in the starry sky has become even more vast and majestic, practically filling the cosmic galaxy, making Beidou Ancient Star appear tiny in comparison.
That Immortal Gate now emits an incomparably brilliant Immortal light, illuminating the dark cosmic starry sky, and the entire vast star field is revolving around that Immortal Gate.
The Northern Dipper star field has become the undisputed center of the entire universe, with vast continents surrounding the Immortal Gate, all of which are grand teleportation arrays connecting to the ancestral lands of various races.
After learning about the astonishing opportunities available in the world connected by the Immortal Gate, the cultivators of this realm went crazy, flocking to it!
And Extreme Dao Supremes of the Human Clan like Gai Jiuyou even directly built grand teleportation arrays in various life origin grounds across the universe, attracting countless living beings.
From this point on, this place truly became the center of the universe.
Currently, Beidou Ancient Star is simply unable to accommodate such an astonishing number of living beings, not even for a temporary stay.
As for the Life Forbidden Zones on the ancient star, they have disappeared.
Among the Supremes lurking within, some entered the Immortal Gate at first, while those who did not initiate a dark turmoil survived. Those who did initiate a dark turmoil were mercilessly slain.
Upon hearing this news, the Supremes who had previously initiated dark turmoils directly planned to go into seclusion, not daring to step into the Immortal Gate.
However, the Ruthless Person did not give them the chance to continue their seclusion. With the number of Forbidden Zone Supremes sharply reduced, she decisively made her move.
Having learned of that unfavorable future, and seeing that bronze gate, and realizing some secrets of reincarnation, her state of mind underwent some subtle changes.
The Ruthless Person came to Earth, activated the numerous Emperor arrays there as a cover, and then struck through to another realm, bringing back Wu Shi and his followers.
Subsequently, this battle erupted!
In addition to the Ruthless Person and Wu Shi, those who took action included Gai Jiuyou, as well as that Great Accomplishment Sacred Body, and even a Human Clan Great Emperor who had once self-mutilated to enter a Forbidden Zone, and there were even two ancient Emperors who also took action.
With the Ruthless Person and Wu Shi present, there was no suspense in this battle. The six great Life Forbidden Zones, and the remaining twenty-plus Supremes, all perished.
The Immortal Gate stands in the starry sky, emitting a dazzling Immortal light that no one can see through.
At this moment, within this dazzling Immortal light that no one can see through, a dark and deep passage began to open.
Subsequently, a root of Fang Ming's main body quietly passed through the All Heavens World Gate, submerging into the passage leading to the Soul River, entering the Soul River Branch corresponding to this time-space.
"Hmm? What's going on?" The moment he entered the corresponding Soul River Branch, Fang Ming instantly sensed that something was wrong.
He couldn't sense the Soul River's supremely powerful original rules, which transcended the Great Chiliocosm. He only sensed the world's original power, which was consistent in strength with the outside world's.
His divine sense spread out, and the scene reflected in his mind was no different from the Soul River in another time-space.
Fang Ming's divine sense spread out, and in an instant, he had reached the edge of this branch.
"As expected, they reacted. The Soul River has been cut off, severing its connection with the main trunk!" His divine sense swept across the empty void ahead, and Fang Ming understood.
In the previous battle, the supreme beings within the Soul River reacted. They cut off the connection between the branch and the main channel.
Evidently, the outcome of that battle made them extremely wary, forcing them to adopt such a countermeasure.
Seeing this scene, Fang Ming felt even more at ease. Since the Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Strange Clan had retreated, he could now take action.
His divine sense swept across the Soul River, and instantly his heart stirred, and he thought: "Although it can no longer flow into the main stream, the function of this branch has not been damaged, and it is still operating perfectly!"
Below, the dark-colored river flowed mightily, with countless light spots floating on it, which were the souls gathered by the Soul River.
In the river, countless souls bobbed up and down, some of which were complete souls, and some were broken souls.
They were immersed in the river formed by Soul light, enveloped by a peculiar power.
Under the immersion of the Soul River water, the incomplete and broken souls gradually became complete. That was not random stitching, but true self-repair.
Although it was just a branch, it was still the Soul River after all, and in essence, it was still part of the Great World, possessing peculiar divine abilities.
Sensing the origin of the Soul River Branch, Fang Ming secretly thought: "Devouring this realm might effectively solve some reincarnation problems!"
As for reincarnation, it is certainly impossible for everyone to be reincarnated and have a past life, but it cannot be said that dying means complete annihilation. That would be too wasteful.
Moreover, since the concept of reincarnation already exists, with the passage of time, the emergence of reincarnation is only a matter of time.
It is better to create it early and hold it in one's own hands.
Since this realm has already been disconnected from the Soul River main stream, with Fang Ming's current strength, there is indeed a great possibility of devouring it.
Even though its origin is not simple, and it is essentially a degraded tentacle extended from the Great World, its world origin is formed by the Great Dao rules and order of the Great World, and its true strength is slightly stronger than that of ordinary Great Chiliocosm origins.
"Just use this branch as a whetstone. I was worried before that the Immortal Heaven Domain whetstone would be difficult to use and might wear down the knife. Now this one is just right, letting them adapt to the contamination of strange substances in advance."
Thinking of this, Fang Ming's divine sense continued to spread, observing the situation of this realm in detail.
Unlike the outside universe, the essence of this realm is still part of the Soul River, not a copy of the outside great universe. Therefore, this realm possesses immeasurable longevity substances.
These longevity substances are not pure longevity substances; they are mixed with a large amount of polluting substances. Long-term absorption of these substances will inevitably lead to mutation and degradation, thus becoming creatures of the Strange Clan.
Therefore, in this world, there are countless strange creatures and a large number of experts. Although there are no Immortal King level creatures, there is no shortage of Immortal Dao level strange creatures.
His divine sense spread out, checking thoroughly, and after confirming that there were indeed no Immortal King level creatures in this realm, Fang Ming did not hesitate at all, activating the Original Gate, and decisively striking through the Soul River world barrier.
"Boom!"
Instantly, the world barrier of the Soul River branch shattered, blasted open with a huge gap.
The Soul River surged, raising billions of waves, engulfing the gray high heavens.
Even if it was just a branch, it was still boundless, a Great Chiliocosm, vast and limitless.
From the shattered gap, clusters of light emitting Great Dao radiance rushed out, carrying terrifying and boundless fluctuations, squeezing into the interior of the Soul River branch.
This is Fang Ming's All Heavens World arriving. He wants to truly squeeze in, directly using the All Heavens World to devour the Soul River branch.
Admittedly, even if only a root came in, it could still attempt to devour this branch, but that would be too slow. It would certainly be most efficient to directly let the All Heavens World erode it.
As Fang Ming's All Heavens World approached, the Soul River branch instantly became agitated, reacting autonomously.
In an instant, billions of Great Dao laws and infinite order rules bombarded down from the gray sky, engulfing the shattered world barrier, trying to prevent Fang Ming's All Heavens World from approaching.
The forty-nine All Heavens Worlds emitted Great Dao radiance. They formed a ring, arranged in a circle, emitting terrifying fluctuations, and rushed up, grinding away all the falling Great Dao rules.
Then, these forty-nine All Heavens Worlds scattered, filling the shattered Soul River world barrier, thus perfectly replacing the Soul River's original broken world barrier.
The Soul River's origin would naturally not give up. Countless Great Dao laws spread from the void, evolving into countless complex innate patterns, pressing down towards the forty-nine All Heavens Worlds, trying to squeeze his All Heavens Worlds out.
In a moment, these forty-nine All Heavens Worlds seemed to be squeezed by the Soul River, facing immense pressure, seemingly melted into a single mass, emitting a hazy radiance.
At the point of contact between the two, countless Great Dao rules and order constantly collided, engaging in an incomparably fierce confrontation.
Substantial ripples spread out from this center towards the Soul River, circle after circle. Wherever they passed, the void was annihilated, Chaos repeated, and the Soul River collapsed!
Circle after circle of Great Dao ripples, spreading and extending without limit, became the source of destruction in essence. Wherever they passed, all phenomena were destroyed, and only those large islands standing in the Soul River, protected by Immortal King arrays, could survive.
Small islands, even if protected by Immortal Dao arrays, were useless. They were instantly destroyed the moment they were affected, and the strange creatures naturally perished as well!
The confrontation was intense, showing a stalemate.
It must be said that the firmness of this realm indeed surpassed that of ordinary Great Chiliocosms. Despite such fierce contention, it did not show obvious signs of collapse, and the overall structure remained intact.
However, although this realm was intact, all the surviving strange creatures within it were now cowering within the grand arrays, none daring to show their faces.
The Immortal Dao level beings among them already knew that this realm had lost contact with the true Soul River main stream, and at this time, it was most likely the enemy who had arrived.
At this moment, they were trying every possible means to contact the main stream side.
After an intense confrontation for a quarter of an hour, a phantom image of a gate appeared within the All Heavens Worlds, which were almost compressed and condensed into a single mass. Then, an Immortal light rushed out from the gate, submerging into the endless void, and then the Soul River suddenly emitted a dull 'thump' sound.
Then the Soul River branch trembled incessantly, and the originally extremely fierce resistance almost disappeared.
In an instant, countless Great Dao patterns rushed out from the forty-nine All Heavens Worlds, also submerging into the endless void.
With the forty-nine All Heavens Worlds as the center, the radiance slowly spread. The originally dark-colored Soul River gradually turned into a normal color.
As the radiance spread, the entire Soul River branch trembled slightly.
At the same time, all the strange creatures within the entire world felt a chilling sensation in their hearts, feeling that the end of the world had arrived, and their minds were covered by a layer of shadow.
The surviving strange creatures were now terrified, especially the Immortal Dao level strange creatures. They understood that a great disaster was imminent and desperately used every means to call for possible rescue.
After ten days, with the forty-nine All Heavens Worlds as the center, Fang Ming had already eroded an area of hundreds of millions of miles around the Soul River. As time passed, his speed of erosion was still accelerating.
