First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1471 - Changes to the Dark and Gold Star Realm

“So many people!”0

Qing Tang immediately sensed that something was amiss too.0

They’d encountered numerous cultivators while crossing the Nightmare Winds belt. They were densely packed, a rain of dazzling beams of flowing light.0

Su Yi took out his jug of wine, calmed his heart, and listened. A cacophony of voices instantly flooded into his ears.0

“The Temple Master has returned, and his cultivation base is even stronger than before! All of this is because he controls the power of reincarnation!”0

“They say even the gods prohibit this power, and that it was supposed to have disappeared from this world a long tago. Who could have imagined that the Temple Master would locate this forbidden power?”0

“If the Temple Master found it, we have a shot of finding it too!”0

“See that? All of those are people venturing to the Dark and Gold Star Realm in search of the secrets of reincarnation…”0

…Practically every conversation they overheard along the way was about the secrets of reincarnation.0

Su Yi finally understood just why so many people had been crossing the Nightmare Winds Belt. Their goal was to seek out the secrets of reincarnation in the Dark and Gold Star Realm!0

Su Yi frowned. There was no doubt about it. Word of his mastery of reincarnation had taken the stars by storm, drawing endless attention. This had led to numerous cultivators setting their sights on the Dark and Gold Star Realm!1

This wasn’t at all strange. Anyone who asked around would quickly learn that Su Yi had discovered the secrets of reincarnation in the Dark and Gold Star Realm’s Netherworld!0

“This is troublesome.” Su Yi rubbed his forehead.0

There was no need to even question it. When cultivators from the stars beyond entered the Dark and Gold Star Realm, they were sure to stir up unpredictable waves!0

A few years ago, when Su Yi left the Dark and Gold Star Realm, the Path of Heaven’s Ascension had only just reappeared within its Laws.0

In other words, the strongest cultivators of the Dark and Gold Star Realm were still just World Kings. How could they possibly be a match for experts of the stars beyond?0

But that wasn’t what Su Yi was worried about.0

He was worried that experts of the distant stars would investigate and discover those connected to him. If they harbored ill intentions, it was highly likely they’d take action against them!0

That meant his legacy disciples, Cha Jin, Wen Lingxue, and his other friends and allies faced an enormous threat!0

The only thing that assured him was that he’d arranged countermeasures before he left the Dark and Gold Star Realm. The moment disaster struck, his loved ones could seek refuge in the Graveyard of Fallen Immortals!0

Venerate Flooding Heavens’ subordinates could protect them there. That would alleviate most dangers.0

“Master, this seems… rather troublesome.” Qing Tang noticed that the situation didn’t bode well, and she couldn’t help but furrow her brow.0

“Rest assured. Given my reputation, only a fool would dare touch my reverse scale,” Su Yi said casually.3

Qing Tang nodded.0

She and Su Yi rushed ahead, wasting no time.0

Three days later.0

The outline of an enormous star realm cinto view. Countless powers of the Laws transformed into a chaotic aura enshrouding the star realm on all sides.0

The Dark and Gold Star Realm!0

The Dark and Gold Star Realm didn’t just encompass the Wilds. It included numerous other worlds great and small, like the Netherworld and the Azure Continent.0

But now, when Su Yi saw it off in the distance, he was unwittingly stunned. He almost dared not believe his eyes.0

When he’d left, the Dark and Gold Star Realm had been an enormous star realm.0

But now, the Dark and Gold Realm seemed considerably smaller!0

To the point that it didn’t even resemble a star realm anymore. It was no longer even comparable to sof the worlds and planes found out amongst the stars.0

That wasn’t all. Su Yi noticed that the Dark and Gold Star Realm was surrounded on all sides by mysterious powers of the Laws, swathing it like chaos mists.0

Those hadn’t been there before!0

“It’s only been a few years. What happened to change the Dark and Gold Star Realm like this?” Su Yi furrowed his brow.0

He recalled what he’d learned in the Epoch of Demonism.0

Around twenty years ago, a group of top experts of the Immortal Realm took action. It was highly likely they’d learned of his tcultivating in the Wilds.0

Now, something had happened to the Dark and Gold Star Realm. Could Wang Ye’s powerful enemies in the Immortal Realm be involved?0

As Su Yi pondered, he led Qing Tang closer.0

Sometimes, a mountain looked close, but rushing there would tire your horse to death. The sapplied here. The Dark and Gold Star Realm looked close at hand, but getting there still required a long journey.0

Shuttling through space took time.0

Several hours later, Su Yi stopped abruptly in place.0

He saw numerous figures off in the distance, densely packed and distributed throughout the surrounding area.0

Up ahead, on the path leading to the Dark and Gold Star Realm, the sounds of combat rang out. 0

Groups of cultivators, each with a terrifying aura, were activating their treasures and slamming them into the chaotic power of the Laws enshrouding the Dark and Gold Star Realm!0

Upon closer inspection, most of them were Cosmic Enlightenment World Kings, but there were several Transcendent revenants in the mix too!0

“Master, it seems that chaotic power around the Dark and Gold Star Realm is acting as a barrier. It’s preventing anyone from approaching,” exclaimed Qing Tang.0

She too could tell that the Dark and Gold Star Realm had changed.0

“It really is strange,” said Su Yi. “First, let’s go have a look.0

He stretched out his divine sense to examine it from a distance.0

As a result, he was shocked to discover that the chaotic power of the Laws enshrouding the Dark and Gold Star Realm was incomparably mysterious and inscrutable. It was brimming with a taboo air.0

Despite the experience of his past lives, he’d never seen anything like it before!0

Suddenly, the entire vast stretch of stars shook.0

Beneath countless shocked gazes, the distant Dark and Gold Star Realm shrank once more, and the chaotic power of the Laws covering it beceven denser.0

The cultivators attacking it with all their might couldn’t help but lose heart. Scursed, while others simply gave up.0

No matter what they did, they couldn’t break the barrier of chaotic power.0

“Why do I get the sense that that chaotic power is trying to refine the entire Dark and Gold Star Realm?” Qing Tang furrowed her brow.0

Su Yi’s eyelids twitched. He felt the sway.0

The Dark and Gold Star Realm was rapidly shrinking. It had to be the work of that mysterious power of the Laws!0

Su Yi’s heart sank as he realized this didn’t bode well. The Dark and Gold Star Realm was hto his disciples and many of his old friends, as well as many others he cared about.0

Yet now, a mysterious and chaotic power was attempting to devour it… Who knew what would happen?0

“Everyone, cwith me! Attack with everything you’ve got!”0

Suddenly, a white-robed elder stepped forth, leading a group of Transcendent revenants. They attacked the barrier of chaotic power together.0

But try as they might, it was useless! There was no shaking that chaotic power, let alone getting past it.0

“Agh. I first chere two years ago, but the Dark and Gold Star Realm was enshrouded in that chaotic power even then. No one can even get near it,” a middle-aged man said with a deep sigh. “Let’s just leave. We aren’t fated to enjoy the good fortune of the Dark and Gold Star Realm.0

Many cultivators left, but most chose to stay behind. They weren’t willing to just give up.0

“This strange development had already started two years ago?” Su Yi sank into thought.0

Two years ago. That wasn’t long after he left the Dark and Gold Star Realm. In other words, this started shortly after he left, and it was still going!0

And here Su Yi had been worried about experts of the stars beyond entering the Dark and Gold Star Realm to threaten those he cared about.1

Now, it seemed he’d worried for nothing. The changes to the Dark and Gold Star Realm made it impossible for outsiders to enter!0

But this development nonetheless made Su Yi’s heart sink. If that mysterious chaotic power of the Laws engulfed the Dark and Gold Star Realm completely, the consequences would be unimaginable!0

“Don’t tellthat chaotic power is the work of the gods? Are they trying to take the whole star realm away?”0

A thought occurred to Su Yi, and he could no longer hold back. He approached the barrier. He wanted to test whether he could break it or not for himself.0

But before he got the chance, a grave, icy voice rang out. 0

“Out of my way, all of you!”0

That voice boomed like thunder, reverberating throughout the surrounding area.0

The nearby cultivators’ hearts shook, and even their souls palpitated.0

When they looked over, they saw a red-robed, seemingly youthful man shooting through space. His aura surged around him, and divine flames interwove. It was like the descent of an unparalleled deity. Everywhere he passed, his aura alone was enough to send other cultivators flying.0

When the red-robed man swung his sleeves…0

The experts attacking the barrier of chaos power with all their might were swept up and flung into the distance.0

Even the Transcendent revenants couldn’t block a single hit!0

A clamor of countless startled cries rang out on all sides.0

Now, when they looked at the red-robed man, the crowd’s eyes revealed deep-seated dread.0

His imposing aura was just too terrifying. His entire body was shrouded in divine divine flames. To the crowd, he seemed like a god descending into the mortal world!1

“His presence is strange and inscrutable, and his power of the Laws is even stranger. That’s obviously a Law of the Natural Order! It cannot possibly belong to him…” Su Yi’s gaze focused.0

He could tell at a glance that the seemingly youthful man in red was a god slave, or perhaps even a divine emissary!1

He knew this because his aura was strikingly similar to Mi Zhen’s, that servant of the Dipankara Buddha. Both he and Mi Zhen could borrow and control a certain power of the natural order!0

The Tailor and Qin Chongxu could do the same.0

However, the Tailor’s borrowed power was obviously the weakest. He'd have had to use the power of the natural order the Goddess of Silent Darkness had left for him to compare to the man in red.0

“What’s a flunky like him doing here…? Don’t tellthat this chaotic power of the Laws really is connected to the gods?” Su Yi was quite surprised. He was increasingly aware of the enormous secrets behind the Dark and Gold Star Realm’s changes!0

“Fellow Daoist, how about we join forces and break this barrier together?”0

Not long after the red-robed man arrived, a leisurely voice rang out.0

The starry void shook accompanying this voice, and a terrifying, icy presence swept outward like a windstorm, shaking the heart of every cultivator present.
