The spiritual energy on the Immortal’s Fall Plains gradually thickened.

As it rose into the sky, it rippled across the skies, causing the crimson aurora flowing over the plains to merge with the spiritual energy.

This fusion produced other colors.

They blended together into a radiant spectrum.

The unique nature of the spiritual energy made this blend distinct, thus giving rise to the seven-colored aurora that illuminated the skies above the Immortal’s Fall Plains.

This light was gorgeous and resplendent, constantly changing.

Vaguely, it was as though some vast consciousness was awakening.

This recovery process affected the stone tablet in the center of the plain that Xu Qing was staring at, causing it to slowly shine.

The runes on it also turned into flowing water that flowed on the stone tablet.

“Gate Guarding Stone…”

Xu Qing fell silent.

The reason for the formation of the seven-colored aurora and the faint recovery of consciousness was noticed by Xu Qing using his Ordinance during this time.

Although the Earth Spirit ancestor only said a few sentences, combined with Xu Qing’s current understanding, there was a lot of information inside.

At the start, Xu Qing only knew that this was the place where the Aurora Immortal Lord, who had been killed by the Venerable Immortal, had fallen. However, now, he knew that this place was also the place where his immortal palace had collapsed.

“In that case, that Immortal Lord… isn’t completely dead?”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes.

He recalled that back in the Wanggu Continent, Jade Flowing Dust had said that a True God couldn’t be completely destroyed, and They could return as long as their true name existed.=

However, the person who returned might not be the same as before.

However, no matter what, the source was the same.

“Since a True God can do it, an Immortal Lord who is comparable to a Lord God should naturally be able to do it.”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought.

The voice of the Earth Spirit Ancestor continued.

“Therefore, every time the Immortal’s Fall opens, opportunities can be divided into two categories.”

“The first type is the spiritual essence of the Aurora Immortal Lord, containing his Dao and insights. As the number one Immortal Lord back then, his understanding holds immense significance to cultivators like us.”

“Someone awakened an Ordinance here, while others have deepened their understanding of Ordinances.”

“This kind of opportunity is even attractive to the Summer Immortals. However, due to some reasons, Summer Immortals can’t enter.”

“However, it’s said that every time it opens, Quasi Immortals will enter and search for an opportunity to advance to the Immortal Realm.”

“As for the second category, it is the treasures left behind in the Immortal Palace.”

“Though this place has opened many times, the Immortal Palace is vast, nearly boundless, and each time it opens, a different region appears.

“Within the palace, if one has fortune, they might obtain a supreme treasure. There are even accounts of individuals acquiring treasures imbued with Ordinance.”

“Therefore, every time the Immortal’s Fall Plain opens, cultivators flock here without distinction—whether or not they possess an Immortal Capital Token, regardless of region or age.”

“The only thing they need is the key!”

“49 keys and 98 spots.”

At this point, the Earth Spirit ancestor paused and carefully looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing nodded. With a wave of his hand, he sent the jade bottle that contained the key back.

After holding the jade bottle, the Earth Spirit Ancestor heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that this person didn’t mind sharing the slot with him.

Hence, after some thought, he spoke in a low voice.

“Fellow Daoist, there’s another important piece of information about this Immortal’s Fall Land.”

“After the Immortal’s Fall Land is opened, the world inside is said to be divided into eight layers.”

“The flow of time at each layer is different.”

The expression of the Earth Spirit Ancestor was solemn.

“This information is useless to me because the first and second layers are merely legendary. Few who enter ever return, especially from the first layer, where death is almost certain.”

“Thus, nearly all the cultivators who come here choose to start from the third layer, and most… are limited to, and ultimately halted at, the third layer.”

“Only those with Ordinances can enter the fourth layer.”

At this point, Earth Spirit whispered.

“To me, this information isn’t important but for you, Fellow Daoist… it might be useful.”

When Xu Qing heard this, he knew that the Earth Spirit ancestor was expressing goodwill. Hence, he nodded and gestured for the other party to continue.

Noticing Xu Qing’s nod, the earth spirit ancestor understood that the other party had seen his goodwill. His heart relaxed. This was his goal.

Hence, he immediately spoke.

“The first two layers remain unclear, but in the third layer, for each day in the outside world, fifty days pass within.”

“It’s said that in the fourth layer, one day outside equals two hundred and fifty days in there.”

“As for the fifth layer and up to the final eighth layer, only Quasi Immortals may enter; thus, I do not know the flow of time, but based on the pattern from the third and fourth layers…”

“It’s highly likely that for the fifth layer, one day outside equates to one thousand two hundred and fifty days, for the sixth, over six thousand days, the seventh over thirty thousand, and the eighth… one hundred sixty thousand days.”

“If that’s true, then tracing backward, the second layer—where few have ventured and survived—likely has a time ratio of ten days for each day outside, and for the first layer, where no one has ever returned, it’s two days.”

A dark glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes.

With the flow of time and the fact that the influence was divided into so many levels, he made even more judgments.

“This Aurora Immortal Lord possessed the power of time when he was alive? In that case, why is his Ordinance light…”

Xu Qing fell silent. He felt even more curious about the place where Aurora Immortal Lord’s spirit had landed.

The Earth Spirit Ancestor, who was at the side, noticed Xu Qing’s contemplative expression and didn’t speak anymore. At that moment, there were also waves in the sky and more cultivators had arrived.

Almost everyone who could obtain a key was extraordinary. Hence, those who came here… were naturally experts.

They were at least at Ruler realm.

Moreover, it wasn’t limited to the west.

There were people from the east, south, and north.

Their arrival caused the world to rumble and the aurora became increasingly resplendent.

Among them, a few became the center of attention the instant they appeared.

On one hand, they stood out due to the resonance of their Immortal Capital tokens, but on the other, it was their aura—an overwhelming presence that seemed to dominate all directions with a sharp, oppressive energy.

What truly set them apart, though, was an inexplicable sense of fear that hovered around them, a fear that could not be understood or grasped.

Even for Xu Qing, who had been deep in thought, their presence stirred a response. He lifted his head, his gaze drawn toward them.

The first person he saw was a youth in a white Daoist robe from the south.

This youth had a handsome appearance and his eyes were like the stars. However, the most obvious characteristic was that his ears were very large.

“He’s Jiang Fan. I heard that during the inheritance segment of Immortal Capital’s trial some time ago, he obtained the inheritance and an Ordinance…”

The Earth Spirit Ancestor spoke in a low voice.

Xu Qing nodded slightly. He had never seen this person with his own eyes before but he had seen a portrait of him in the information on the map.

Jiang Fan’s master was Quasi-Immortal Lan Yun of the Southern Starfield’s Great Immortal Mountain.

He had cultivated for less than five hundred years and grasped seven authorities in his early-stage Sovereign Realm.

At the price of serious injuries, he had once killed a peak Ruler.

This established him as the number one heaven’s chosen in this generation of the Southern Starfield.

At the moment when Xu Qing looked over, Jiang Fan, who had appeared from the horizon, was walking and chatting with a woman beside him, laughing as they strolled. In the next instant, as if sensing something, he turned his head, and his gaze fell directly on Xu Qing.

The moment his gaze met Xu Qing’s, Jiang Fan’s eyes instantly narrowed. After that, a smile appeared on his face and he nodded slightly.

At the same time, the woman beside him also sensed it and looked at Xu Qing.

The woman was dressed in a blue robe, with delicate features, but when she looked over, mountains seemed to rise within her eyes, giving her gaze an immense and terrifying weight.

That was a manifestation of an Ordinance.

Xu Qing’s expression was calm. He didn’t need the Earth Spirit Ancestor to introduce her. He already had an answer to this person’s identity.

Yuanshan Su. Because she liked to wear blue clothes, she was known as Fairy Qingsu.

She was another member of the eight great stars from the Southern Starfield. Her cultivation was slightly higher than Jiang Fan’s, having reached the mid-stage Ruler Realm.

However, according to the information on the map, she only had four authorities.

After this information appeared in Xu Qing’s mind, he retracted his gaze and looked to the north.

On the northern horizon, two young cultivators whose appearances were almost indistinguishable from one another walked over.

Their auras fused together and as they walked, they emitted a chill that caused everyone’s hearts to tremble, sweeping through the world.

Wherever it spread, it created a suffocative feeling.

“Qianjun… Biyi…”

The Earth Spirit Ancestor spoke in a low voice.

These two were none other than stars of the Northern Star Field and were from the Sword Immortal Sect.

Xu Qing’s expression was as calm as ever. The description of them on the map appeared in his mind. It was said that their birth was accompanied by heavenly phenomena related to sword,and they possess an innate sword body. They were personally taken as disciples by the current Sword Immortal Sect’s Sky Patroller!

Ever since they started cultivating, they had suppressed their peers in the north and were prominent.

Clearly, after experiencing the inheritance segment, they were stronger than before!

At that moment, as they walked over, the coldness that emitted could intimidate the mind, but couldn’t be seen by outsiders. However, with Xu Qing’s mind in the space-time state, he could naturally ‘see’ it clearly.

Behind these two, an ancient large sword was floating floating.

This sword was dignified, like the leader of ten thousand swords. It was high and mighty and followed the two of them in a way that ordinary cultivators wouldn’t sense.

That was formed from an Ordinance!

The instant he saw it, Xu Qing heard the sword hum of the Emperor Sword in his body.

It seemed unconvinced.

Xu Qing comforted. At the side, the Earth Spirit ancestor spoke in a low voice.

“There are already four out of the eight stars here. There are also three from the east who will descend soon. The last one is Li Mengtu from my Western Starfield…”

The Earth Spirit Ancestor took a deep breath. He was in awe of these eight stars. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, another person appeared on the horizon.

He wore a black robe, had long black hair, a cold expression, and the twelve petals on his forehead.

It was Li Mengtu.

The moment he appeared, this place seemed to have fallen into pitch-black darkness for an instant.

That was his Ordinance power!

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of Jiang Fan and the others.

“My western star, Li Mengtu!”

Born in the west, the Earth Spirit Ancestor naturally had a sense of fellowship with the star of the west, so his tone was different from before.

However, almost as soon as he finished speaking, his heart suddenly trembled. This was because he saw… Li Mengtu looking at him from the air.

After that… he actually walked over.

Finally, amidst the waves in the Earth Spirit Ancestor’s heart, Li Mengtu walked to Xu Qing’s side. He first bowed before sitting down.

“I guessed you were here.”

Li Mengtu looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing nodded and was about to speak. However, at the next instant, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he looked at the horizon.

Fire clouds moved over from the horizon. The moment they got close, they transformed into a red-haired youth.

It was the person who had forced Xu Qing to flee all the way in the Southern Starfield back then. In the end, he relied on the ferryman to enter the west and dodged the life-and-death tribulation!

As the red-haired youth walked toward Jiang Fan, his gaze swept across everyone.

However, his gaze suddenly stopped on Xu Qing. His footsteps also paused for a moment!
