Chapter 383: Chapter 381: Creating a Star

It was a telepathic message from Su Qing.

Qing Yang immediately scanned his surroundings.

He quickly spotted Su Qing, dressed in a white shirt with his long hair unbound.

Qing Yang stood up, walked over, and sent a telepathic message, "Elder Su, what can I do for you?"

"How many Cultivators who fled are on Jianmu? Do any of them have Pocket Worlds?"

"Or perhaps you? Do you have a Pocket World?" Su Qing asked telepathically.

Then he lifted his finger and pointed outside the library, gesturing for them to go out and talk.

...

「Outside the library.」

"Elder Su, as for Pocket Worlds, there probably aren’t many."

"Because the Spirit Realm is gone, the foundation for creating Pocket Worlds no longer exists."

"The Three Yang Temple’s Pocket World cannot be sold. It’s the temple’s place of inheritance."

Su Qing fell silent for a moment, not saying anything more.

"Alright then. I was just asking."

He didn’t want to trade with Immortal Stones again.

’Using Immortal Stones to change destiny again won’t do them—or me—any good.’

Since that was the case, Su Qing could only resort to his last-ditch plan.

Su Qing went to an inconspicuous place outside Jianmu.

This was the very spot where the Spirit Realm had been destroyed.

After taking a deep sigh, Su Qing brought his palms together in the gesture of Holding the Essence and Returning to Unity.

Immense Power of the Stars gathered in his hands.

Then,

it grew larger and larger,

more and more immense.

Finally,

it transformed into a Star.

Su Qing placed it on the spot.

"Reversing Yin and Yang! Heaven and Earth, capture this object!"

Afterward, Solar Qi and Taiyin Qi enveloped the Star.

It transformed into Taiyin and Taiyang.

Su Qing then injected a trace of Star Essence into the Star’s core.

After placing the Fire Dragon Array Plate and a Soul Defense Array Plate inside the Star,

Su Qing waved a hand, unleashing a vast amount of Five Elements Spiritual Qi.

This accelerated the nurturing of the environment.

Great marshes rose, oceans emerged, mountains folded together, and thunder rolled endlessly.

With another wave of his hand, seeds of Tier One to Tier Five Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicines from the original Spirit Realm appeared all over the Star.

"Withered Wood Revives in Spring."

After sustaining the growth of these Spirit Plants and Spiritual Artifacts,

Su Qing sowed the seeds of ordinary plants,

and made them grow.

With the Yin Yang Five Elements in constant circulation, this place, aside from its Spiritual Qi, was now hardly different from the Spirit Realm.

Then, the countless souls from within his Immortal Domain Dao Foundation

were released by Su Qing into the Star, using Yin and Yang to create a place of reincarnation for this new world.

They began to multiply and grow.

They began to evolve into living beings.

Until finally.

"Purifying Soul and Vibration."

"Purifying Soul and Vibration."

...

After casting "Purifying Soul and Vibration" no less than a thousand times to wash away all past karma,

he quietly left the place.

Su Qing didn’t want to create a world.

He just wanted to return these souls to the original Spirit Realm.

That was all.

As for the other souls, he did the same for them.

This was all Su Qing could do.

Although it wasted some Power of the Stars,

this was Su Qing’s way of comforting himself.

’At least I’ve gotten revenge.’

And this Star...

...was nothing more than a giant tombstone.

Meant to console the people in Su Qing’s memory.

Su Qing glanced at it, a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

But then he smiled.

"Go on, reincarnate. For all of you,"

"it’s just a chance to start over."

Su Qing glanced at the massive Star.

The boundless emotion in his heart slowly faded into a calm gaze upon the Star.

’Since when did I possess such world-creating power?’

’But the first time I use such power...’

’...is to build a tombstone for my friends and family.’

...

Su Qing returned to Jianmu.

However, his ability to create a Star

had been witnessed by the higher-ups of Jianmu.

They all stared with utter bewilderment at the video feed, at the tiny, insignificant-looking human.

He had actually created an incomparably massive Star.

They reasoned that for a Star of that size, its gravity would likely be quite high.

But many researchers in the institute were shocked by the ability to create a Star.

It was simply too powerful.

Everyone who could see this video was a Cultivator who had stepped onto a Dao Path.

Faced with such a great power, they all sighed with emotion.

’Does such power truly exist?’

"Dean Jiang, Dean Liu, and Dean Ou."

"We’ve gathered here today to discuss Su Qing."

"Of course." Jiang Zhaozhu glanced at Ou Mingjie beside him.

Liu Jiafeng smiled and nodded.

Ou Mingjie, however, was busy calculating.

But he nodded in agreement with Ke Hongmei’s proposal.

Ou Mingjie paused his work.

He began to speak as if to himself, "It seems you’re all quite surprised by Su Qing’s display regarding the Spirit Realm, aren’t you."

"Then let me give you a brief summary. Su Qing is currently about 60 years old. You’ve all seen his power."

"His mysterious powers... the Cultivators who survived from the Spirit Realm..."

"...all call him the reincarnation of an Immortal." Ou Mingjie was still calculating all the parameters of the Star Su Qing had just created,

and the conditions for survival within it.

"An Immortal?" Ke Hongmei, Jiang Zhaozhu, and Liu Jiafeng all focused their attention, waiting intently for Ou Mingjie’s next words.

"To call him an Immortal might be an underestimation. Before the collapse of the Spirit Realm, all living beings who survived, including humans..."

"...received a gift from him."

"This matter has far-reaching implications, so I can’t say too much."

"You just need to know that he has only been alive for a little over sixty years."

"On Jianmu, he would still be considered a child in the middle of his studies." Ou Mingjie stated a fact.

But Ke Hongmei asked, "But why did he do all this?"

Jiang Zhaozhu, however, curled his lip into a smile.

He answered, "Do you know about the Greed Realm?"

"It was annihilated by some entity."

"And it just so happens that the timing coincides with this great personage’s return from a trip out."

"We detected a vast number of souls on the Star, and they’ve even formed a cycle similar to a reincarnation platform."

"So, to make a bold guess, those are all soul fragments from the Greed Realm." An incredibly shrewd light appeared in Jiang Zhaozhu’s eyes.

And he was extremely confident.

"Let’s be bolder still. Perhaps this man, whom a host of Immortals call an Immortal himself..."

"...wiped out the Greed Realm."

Jiang Zhaozhu was extremely confident.

But Ou Mingjie said, "I already knew about your guess. Half a year ago, this Immortal came to me asking for the location of the Greed Realm."

"I used my instruments to lock onto the Greed Realm’s location for a full six months."

"Fortunately, I managed to record the very moment the Greed Realm disappeared."

"It’s just that due to some interference, there’s no follow-up footage."

Ou Mingjie said dismissively.

’He’d known this information for ages.’

He had a question now.

Why did Su Qing grow so fast, as if he had no limits?

It was too incredible.

And the speed of his growth was actually accelerating.

Ke Hongmei feigned a cough. "Ahem."

"Actually, I knew about this as well."

"The Black Abyss Dynasty and the Taichu Daoist Palace have already sent messages."

"As you know, some things can’t be hidden from certain existences among them."

"So, they’ve taken a fancy to this Immortal and want to invite him over. The Black Abyss Dynasty’s intentions are impure, but the Taichu Daoist Palace wants to invite him to study the Dao."

"Ou Mingjie, from the sound of it, you’re quite familiar with him. I’ll leave this matter to you."

Ou Mingjie was taken aback, then gave a bitter smile. "Dean Ke, you can’t do this to me."

Ke Hongmei shook her head and chuckled. "No, among the four of us, you’re the most capable. It has to be you."

"You’ll be rewarded for it later."

"Really?" Ou Mingjie asked doubtfully.

Ke Hongmei nodded. "Recently, a Frozen Star Tree was discovered. It has fruit, and eating it can grant a Dao Path."

Ou Mingjie was instantly thrilled. "I’ll only relay the information! I can’t persuade him."

"Just relay the information?" Liu Jiafeng looked at Ke Hongmei with a hopeful gaze.

He wanted a Dao Path too.

The Frozen Star Tree... that possessed the power of the Ice Dao Path.
