This was a True Fate of the stars.
It represented eight supreme stars, each one dazzling beyond comparison, each one possessing boundless stellar power.
Gong Yunâer's True Fate was a star chart with the eight strongest stars revolving around it.
The other stars could only serve as substitutes, dim and insignificant.
The moment the star chart appeared, Gong Yunâerâs entire body was filled with unending starlight energy.
Baili Xiaoâs gaze was cold as she looked at it.
Then, behind her, a beam of light shot into the sky.
A phantom slowly emerged from behind her.
It stood shrouded in mist, its appearance completely obscured.
One could only vaguely make out a woman in a purple dress.
This woman seemed to have crossed the river of time itself, descending from the ancient past.
Her aura was vast and overwhelming, surrounded by sun, moon, and stars. Just her gaze made it hard to breathe.
This phantom was Baili Xiaoâs True Fate.
It was also the first time she had revealed it publicly.
âDo you know what that is?â Xu Qingshan asked Xu Zimo.
âItâs strange. I canât quite explain it,â Xu Zimo said, frowning slightly.
âThat phantom is the true body of the Jade Purity Immortal from her previous life,â Xu Qingshan explained.
âInteresting,â Xu Zimo smiled.
He knew that Baili Xiaoâs past life was the Jade Purity Immortal, first War General of the Grand Empress. He hadnât expected her to use her past self as her True Fate.
âSo Baili Xiao has also touched the River of Time,â Xu Zimo murmured.
âWho do you favor?â Xu Qingshan asked.
âI canât say,â Xu Zimo shook his head.
âTheir trump cards havenât been revealed yet. Who knows how much theyâre still hiding. Baili Xiaoâs True Fate is indeed stunning, but those eight stars arenât weak either. Those eight stars are evolving into a cosmic star ocean, with great potential for the future.â
Meanwhile, on the other side, the people from the Otherworldly Zenith Palace were no longer as composed as before.
âAncestor, do you think the Young Palace Mistress can handle it?â someone asked the black-robed elder nervously.
âIf you ask me, we shouldnât have even bothered with the Martial Heaven Tournament. Just take them down and stop wasting time.â
âYou donât understand. Yunâer has her pride. She knew the Martial Heaven Tournament was full of geniuses, like a dragon's den or tigerâs lair, yet she still chose to face it alone. Sheâs honing her Dao Heart,â the elder said with a smile.
âAfter the God Meridian, the higher you go, the less itâs about just cultivation. Dao Heart and comprehension become more important. The road is still long.â
...
On the arena, the two stood facing each other.
There was no sun in the sky. Though the barrier of the Heaven-Genesis Microcosm blocked the snowfall from outside, it was still bitterly cold.
A cold wind howled from the distance, carrying dust and vanishing again.
âStar-Pluck,â Gong Yunâer said softly.
She reached into the star chart behind her, and in the next moment, a star was pulled out.
It sparkled brilliantly, turning into a stream of light and fusing into her body. A star mark appeared on her forehead.
This star was Radiant Light.
The Star of Radiant Light, also known as the Star of the Piercing Army, had a destructive force rarely seen in the world.
As the starlight flickered, Gong Yunâerâs figure vanished into the void, and in the next instant, she attacked Baili Xiao.
Baili Xiao slowly raised her hand, and as she did, the phantom behind her also raised its hand.
With a loud boom, their powers clashed, Gong Yunâerâs figure was blasted away.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she pulled out the second, third, and fourth stars from her chart.
Firefly Spark, Celestial Garden, High Sovereign.
The fire star, the beast star, the royal star, these were the meanings they embodied. As the three stars fused into her body, three different symbols appeared on her limbs.
Her aura grew even stronger. Her speed became light itself, nearly impossible to follow with the naked eye.
A giant palm fell, with stars swirling in its center, raining endless starlight.
As the palm descended, Baili Xiaoâs phantom braced itself, and the giant palm was instantly annihilated.
At this moment, purple aura surged around Baili Xiao, crackling with explosive sounds.
The phantom behind her slowly stepped forward. Each step seemed to tug on the Grand Dao of heaven and earth.
âMyriad Immortals Domain,â Baili Xiao said softly.
The phantom raised both hands, and waves of purple domain energy spread out in all directions.
The entire arena was covered.
Within this Immortal Domain, endless purple light burst forth like a falling galaxy, with countless images evolving within it.
Immortals riding cranes, children guiding the way.
Elders climbing mountains, heavenly emperors ascending the throne.
Countless visions spread across the ground, and Baili Xiaoâs figure vanished into the domain.
In an instant, the surrounding spiritforce dispersed like mist, and the images came to life.
An elder leaned on a cane and walked past, the earth split open into a chasm ten thousand feet deep.
The cane flew from the sky, and Gong Yunâer quickly raised her arms to block.
Boom! The energy wave burst out, sending Gong Yunâer flying.
...
âMyriad Immortals Domain, why does that name sound familiar?â someone in the crowd asked in surprise.
âIsnât that the technique created by the Grand Empress herself?â someone else said excitedly.
âLegend has it that the Grand Empress once saw paintings of the Myriad Immortals and comprehended this move. During the battle for Heavenâs Will, the Immortals ascended, illusions became real, many died to this technique.â
People all around were discussing it.
After all, this move only existed in the Grand Empressâs era. Since her ascension, no one in the True Martial Sacred Ground had ever learned it again.
Inside the domain, illusions of immortals and celestial children unfolded.
One celestial child pointed down from the sky.
The land fractured, mountains and rivers crumbled.
The entire Heaven-Genesis Microcosm began to shake.
Gong Yunâer didnât even have time to resist, she was engulfed in the domain.
âPatriarch Baili, congratulations,â someone nearby began flattering Baili Chengfeng.
âWith Saintess Bailiâs strength, sheâs a future Grand Emperor for sure.â
âYes, yes indeed.â
Baili Chengfeng smiled and waved his hand. âLetâs not be careless. The opponent isnât that simple. Everyone should keep watching closely.â
Just then, within the domain, amidst the rising dust and debris, a flash of starlight burst forth.
The starlight lit up the surroundings, making it impossible to look away.
âEast Prime,â came a long and clear voice.
As the starlight pierced through the dust, Gong Yunâer slowly stepped out from within.
She was surrounded by swirling starlight, her stars more condensed than ever.
The East Prime Star, one who fears nothing, who walks a lone path through the world.
As the starlight flickered before them, the entire Immortal Domainâs space froze.
This was true time-stopping.
