Chapter 1766: I Won’t Be Tricked!

At this moment, across countless universes in the Fourth Star Ring, all living beings and even the gods themselves were shaken to their cores.

Since Young Master Aurora arrived on the Primordial Home Planet, only a single day had passed.

Yet in that one day, events of such magnitude had unfolded that it felt like a storm had swept through the Fourth Star Ring with unprecedented force.

Temples crumbled, gods withered, and divine kingdoms turned to ruins. Even the divine dynasties were swept up in the chaos.

This had already shaken the very foundation of the Fourth Star Ring!

Moreover, within the divine path of the Fourth Star Ring, the true name of Young Master Aurora had been eternally inscribed, and the fortune of the Fifth Star Ring had been introduced. This was yet another blow to the already crumbling foundation.

It was clear that from this point on, the divine path of the Fourth Star Ring would no longer be pure. The resurrection of gods would be interfered with, and even more terrifyingly… immortal energy would begin to appear in the Fourth Star Ring!

The space for survival was being compressed from both within and without.

And there was another critical point…

The Venerable God had abandoned the Fourth Star Ring and departed!

It had forsaken all the gods of the Fourth Star Ring, using them to bear Its calamity so that It would no longer be burdened. It then chose to enter the umbilical cord of the Divine God.

This act had an enormous impact on the gods of the Fourth Star Ring.

Thus, the wails of sorrow echoed from the divine path, reverberating through the souls of the remaining gods in the Fourth Star Ring.

The cries lingered, unceasing.

In contrast, the Fifth Star Ring was thriving.

With the fortune surging, Young Master Aurora’s ascension and return, and the invasion of the Fourth Star Ring, the Fifth Star Ring’s fortunes grew stronger.

Cheers filled the entire ring.

After these events, the war between the two star rings had reached its final stages, with 90% of the conflict already resolved.

And the results… were monumental!

From this point on, whether in terms of absolute strength or the hierarchy of the star rings, the Fourth Star Ring would be unable to reverse its fate. The only destiny left for it was to be devoured.

And their time… was now on a countdown!

Because the Venerable Immortal had issued a decree to occupy the Fourth Star Ring.

All the Immortal Lords who had entered the Fourth Star Ring unleashed their full power, engaging in battle with the Lord Gods.

At the same time, massive teleportation gates appeared in multiple locations across the Fourth Star Ring, summoned by the Venerable Immortal’s power.

Armies of cultivators emerged from within.

They charged into the Fourth Star Ring!

A one-sided war erupted across the Fourth Star Ring’s territory.

All of this was clearly perceived by Young Master Aurora, who stood in mid-air above the Primordial Home Planet. He knew the overall situation was settled, so he raised his right hand and plunged it into his chest.

Grasping the divine aspect that had severed all causality, he pulled it out with force.

Silver blood spilled as the divine aspect was completely extracted.

Holding it in his hand, the heavens and earth trembled, and the aura of fate radiated intensely from the divine aspect.

Sensing this object, Young Master Aurora felt no attachment.

He knew he could not bear this karma.

According to the Venerable Immortal, there were perhaps only two people in the world who could bear this karma.

One of them was Xu Qing.

The other, according to the Venerable Immortal’s plan, should have arrived here during his ascension process. Yet, for some reason, that person had never appeared.

“So be it!”

Young Master Aurora’s gaze fell upon Xu Qing.

“Xu Qing, this object has both benefits and drawbacks for you!”

“You should already know its origins, so before that existence truly perishes, there is almost no god or person in the upper star rings who dares to truly possess it.”

“But no matter what, this is a supreme treasure!”

“So whether you want it or not is your choice. This is the second gift I prepared for you!”

Xu Qing listened, his gaze fixed on the divine aspect in Young Master Aurora’s hand. He could feel the deep connection between the divine aspect and himself.

To be precise, the connection was with his divine body.

Without hesitation, he nodded.

Young Master Aurora looked into Xu Qing’s eyes and waved his right hand. The divine aspect in his hand transformed into a ray of seven-colored light, shooting toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing caught it, and the moment it touched his hand, his mind shook. He felt the fluctuations from the divine aspect more clearly and intensely.

He could also sense the unparalleled, terrifying power contained within the divine aspect.

It was as if… he was holding multiple star rings in his hand.

“This divine aspect… my divine body left in Wanggu should be able to contain it…”

Xu Qing took a deep breath and carefully stored the divine aspect. Then he looked around, knowing that the matters here had come to an end.

“So now, do you want to stay in the Fourth Star Ring and participate in the full-scale war, or will you come with me? Or do you have another destination in mind? I can send you there.”

Young Master Aurora spoke gently from mid-air.

“I want to return to the left wing battlefield of the Fifth Star Ring.”

Xu Qing thought for a moment and stated his desired destination.

He hadn’t forgotten the Ascension Immortal Pill promised by Immortal Lord Zhan Lu.

Although he was now at the peak of the Quasi Immortal stage, lacking only the comprehension of the Ordinance, that Ascension Immortal Pill… was still quite valuable.

He wanted to bring it back for Zi Xuan.

Hearing this, Young Master Aurora waved his hand, causing the void to ripple as fortune gathered, forming a vortex.

“Then, we’ll meet again in the Fifth Star Ring.”

Young Master Aurora smiled.

Xu Qing nodded, bowed to Fairy Spirit Phoenix, and then looked around, feeling a surge of emotions.

Scenes flashed through his mind, and eventually, all the turmoil was suppressed, leaving only his determination to ascend to the Summer Immortal realm. With a swift movement, he stepped into the vortex.

In an instant, he disappeared.

He had left the Primordial Home Planet.

After his figure vanished, Young Master Aurora in mid-air turned to Spirit Phoenix.

His smile grew even gentler as he softly said,

“I made you worry…”

Fairy Spirit Phoenix’s eyes reddened as she stepped into the air, arriving beside Young Master Aurora.

“After we finish one last thing, we can settle down.”

Young Master Aurora smiled, took Fairy Spirit Phoenix’s hand, and together they turned and walked into the void.

…

At the same time, within the Fourth Star Ring, in the secret realm of heaven and earth that Xu Qing had once visited…

This secret realm had now collapsed.

The ascension and transformation of Young Master Aurora had affected the entire Fourth Star Ring, and this place was no exception.

It had long since shattered.

Thus, the sky was filled with massive cracks, and the entire place looked broken and desolate.

On the ground, there were two corpses.

One was the black tumor, now decayed and turned into filth.

The other, humanoid in shape, was the Earth God.

It was not decayed but rather seemed to be undergoing a process of purification, continuously dissipating.

Amidst this purification and dissipation, a figure was struggling to crawl out, cursing as he went.

“I was halfway through eating, and now it’s dissipating!”

“Luckily, I’m amazing. I used everything I had to activate the Heaven-Devouring, Earth-Swallowing, Ancient-Reversing, God-Transcending Art, and finally managed to eat my fill before it disappeared.”

“Hmph, during that time, a teleportation array suddenly appeared nearby, flashing and emitting a tempting aura, trying to lure me in.”

“Clearly, this thing couldn’t struggle anymore and didn’t want me to keep eating, so it tried to trick me with another method!”

“Who does it think I am? I, Erniu, won’t fall for that!”

This person, disheveled and looking rather miserable, was none other than Erniu.

Despite his disheveled appearance, his stomach was noticeably bulging, as if he had eaten quite a lot.

After finally crawling out, he looked around, his gaze following the cracks to the outside world. He sensed the surroundings and was stunned.

Then he took a sharp breath, his expression filled with doubt and suspicion.

“What’s going on outside? The aura is completely chaotic. What happened?”

“Why does it feel like a war is breaking out…”

“What’s the situation… Damn, did I come out too late? It feels like I missed something big.”

Erniu muttered to himself, but then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his thigh, becoming excited.

“If there’s really a war in this godforsaken place, that’s a good thing! Wars mean gods will fall. Could it be that my luck has turned around, and I can finally eat my fill?”

Erniu licked his lips, his excitement growing.
