Chapter 887: Starlight Doumu Yuanjun

Wherever the influence of the Ascension Immortal Court reached, even the many Cosmic Star Thieves in the Chaotic Star Domain did not dare to plunder, because they knew this would lead to a catastrophic blow.

Such is the prestige of the Ascension Immortal Court now.

However, as the highest spiritual symbol of the Ascension Immortal Court, overseeing the Thirty-Three Heavens, Zheng Yi had been stuck for over three hundred years, showing no advancement in cultivation strength.

This is a sedimentation of the state of mind, difficult to break through.

He remained trapped at the pinnacle of the Void Realm, unable to progress further.

That lofty realm was like a transparent, intangible barrier; while barely visible, breaking through it seemed as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Even with the entire resources of the Ascension Immortal Court at his disposal, he was helpless.

In fact, in the entire Chaotic Star Domain, there were no existences beyond the Void Realm.

According to Zheng Yi’s perception, even considering some hidden ancient monsters in the Chaotic Star Domain, those who could enter the Void Realm only numbered less than five.

And these ancient monsters were hidden everywhere, never showing themselves.

Only top-notch existences like him could vaguely sense these individuals.

Without touching the stake of the Ascension Immortal Court, Zheng Yi was disinclined to engage with them, maintaining a tacit balance between both sides, sharing the vast interests of the Chaotic Star Domain.

Yet even the glory of the Ascension Immortal Court couldn’t lend Zheng Yi a helping hand; he couldn’t progress further, unable to break through the bottleneck restricting his path.

…

Above the Thirty-Three Heavens, within the Pure Heaven, Zheng Yi had long stopped concerning himself with worldly affairs, immersed in secluded cultivation.

Even the Immortal Court Gods, the Four Great Monarchs, and the Three Spirits Ancestral Master holding high positions and power in the Ascension Immortal Court dared not disturb Zheng Yi unless summoned.

Meanwhile, Taiyue Divine Venerable had long melded with the rules of the Divine Dao power, fusing with the Great Dao of the Ascension Immortal Court, plunging into a deep sleep, trying to break through the Grotto Heaven Realm from another aspect.

Amidst the undulating purple Dao Rhine, Zheng Yi sat cross-legged on a cushion, surrounded by myriad Dao Laws swirling around his body.

He seemed like an ordinary Cyan Robe Daoist, but the spot beneath him was almost becoming another cosmos.

The intangible Rule Dao Rhyme was nearly solidified, and the overwhelming shock of the Great Daoist Laws made him seem like an embodiment of the Great Dao.

If someone could witness this scene in person, merely observing the changes around Zheng Yi could provide a lifetime of benefit with just a slight understanding.

However, Zheng Yi’s brow furrowed slightly; within his sea of consciousness, endless information evolved, each path being a dead end.

He had reached a dead-end path, caught in a deep bottleneck of obsession.

His current state was neither awake nor asleep, using the incense of all things as offerings to fall into slumber.

Without some external force, it would be hard to awaken.

This was Zheng Yi forcing himself, applying greater pressure in an attempt to break through.

Yet the path ahead remained obscure.

And on this day, above the Thirty-Three Heavens, Purple Luo Palace suddenly trembled, hanging down thousands of purple clouds of Qingyun, like ribbons, chiming like wind chimes, awakening the slumbering Zheng Yi.

He slowly opened his eyes, seemingly containing another world within, where sun, moon, and stars rotated.

As his gaze fell, information continuously surged into his mind.

A certain powerful radiating force instantly enveloped the entire Ascension Immortal Court.

No change could escape his deduction.

At this time, within Taihuang Heaven, one of the Thirty-Three Heavens, the Grand Emperor of the Middle Heaven personally offered prayers with respect and fervor, serving the lofty Daoist Lord with absolute reverence.

Zheng Yi’s heart was moved, hearing the prayerful voice of the Grand Emperor of the Middle Heaven.

“Lord Daoist, the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars has sent an invitation for you to visit.”

Endless information reflected in Zheng Yi’s mind, instantly clarifying the changes in this interval.

His eyes gradually deepened, seemingly transforming into two massive black holes, swallowing all profound changes.

Soon, his voice echoed in the heart of the Grand Emperor of the Middle Heaven, saying, “Understood.”

Upon hearing the Daoist Lord’s voice transmission, the Grand Emperor of the Middle Heaven immediately calmed down, letting out a sigh of relief.

Then, he respectfully performed a disciple’s salute at the prayer altar before retreating.

Meanwhile, outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, within Pure Heaven, a hint of strange color flashed between Zheng Yi’s brows.

This Sea of Ten Thousand Stars is no ordinary place; it is a cosmic-level power, worthy of being seen as the Cosmos’ sacred ground.

And when compared to the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, the Chaotic Star Domain of the Ascension Immortal Court was but an unwanted remnant.

Though the Ascension Immortal Court had thrived for over three hundred years, like oil boiling over flame, it never garnered the slightest attention from this colossal entity.

After all, beneath a giant elephant, a little rabbit nibbling away joyfully on the grass would hardly catch the elephant’s true notice, would it?

But for some reason, this cosmic sacred-level power, the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, had surprisingly extended an invitation to him.

It even startled the Grand Emperor of the Middle Heaven, who went so far as to offer incense and prayers to the Thirty-Three Heavens just to relay this message to him.

Evidently, this was a matter of significant engagement.

This suggested the other party regarded this invitation with considerable importance evidently through formal channels.

This piqued Zheng Yi’s curiosity, prompting him to decide to venture to the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars and uncover the truth.

In fact, as early as a hundred years ago, he had intended to visit the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars.

After all, being cooped up within this Chaotic Star Domain and relying solely on one’s own strength to break through the Grotto Heaven Realm was as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
