Chapter 1195: The Mo Yang Universe

How vast the Mo Yang Universe truly was…

Xu Qing did not know its precise scale. Even now, as the supreme sovereign of this Mo Yang Universe, wielding absolute authority—capable of annihilating galaxies with a single thought—

his divine sense could not encompass the entire cosmos.

Yet, during his transmission here, he had glimpsed its rough contours.

The Mo Yang Universe resembled two curved ram’s horns, formed by countless star systems and stellar vortices. Where the horns met below lay an irregular ellipse,

resembling a fish’s body.

Thus, the Mo Yang Universe was precisely a great fish adorned with ram’s horns.

Within its boundless expanse, stars and galaxies, stellar wanderers and domains, teemed densely. Especially the radiant lights, ubiquitous—

those were suns.

Some harbored life; others had perished.

As Xu Qing perceived these, his transmission neared its end.

Undeniably, the transmission decree from Jiu An Tian operated on principles and knowledge beyond Xu Qing’s comprehension—a clear product of the Fifth Star-Ring cultivators’ research.

Its transmission spanned multiple universes, allowing one step to reach designated starfields, transcending spatial dimensions themselves.

Indescribable. Unfathomable.

“It feels… like a civilization. The civilization of immortals.”

Xu Qing murmured. As the Mo Yang Universe loomed larger before him, he pondered its peculiarities.

According to the immortal envoy from Jiu An Tian’s Immortal Palace, he must discover them himself.

Yet, as one of Jiu An Tian’s strategically vital special universes, Xu Qing suspected the higher lifeforms within the Mo Yang Universe knew its traits.

Indeed, as the universe expanded before his eyes, and countless star systems streamed past like rain, he beheld his destination!

It was an immortal palace!

Crafted from a pitch-black meteorite, the palace seemed vast yet, against the backdrop of space, infinitesimally small.

Yet here, authority and status were no longer measured by a structure’s size or scale.

Though modest, all beings, all things, must bow.

Here, it was the most sacred presence in the Mo Yang Universe—ancient, weathered, majestic.

And around it… countless figures knelt, heads lowered in worship.

Most bore humanoid forms, yet with subtle distinctions; others were entirely alien, diverse in shape.

Some even manifested as colossal beasts radiating terrifying auras.

Their numbers stretched boundlessly. Most cultivated to the Spirit-Sealing Realm; Sovereigns were plentiful too.

They were the lords of their respective star domains within the Mo Yang Universe.

The Fifth Star-Ring was immense. Humanity, initially a minority here, had multiplied explosively after becoming a cultivator civilization.

Yet compared to the infinite multiverse, they remained but a drop in the ocean.

Yet this mere drop had become the rulers of the entire Fifth Star-Ring, governing countless alien races!

These aliens were mostly descendants of divine ancestors—tribes born from gods themselves.

But now, enslaved for generations, the Fifth Star-Ring had imprinted countless seals upon their god-descended bloodlines.

Their growth was strictly constrained; their existence centered on humanity.

They walked the path of cultivation.

Bound by bloodline seals, their limits were fixed at the Sovereign Realm.

Only humans could ascend to immortality!

Unless… strategic necessity demanded their seals be lifted, sending these aliens to fight and die for the Fifth Star-Ring.

Thus, those who ascended from the Origin Lands across generations stood as nobles before these aliens within the Fifth Star-Ring’s universes.

As sovereign of this universe, Xu Qing’s arrival demanded worship from the enslaved.

Amidst the adoration of domain lords, the meteorite-crafted immortal palace, carried by Xu Qing’s intangible transmission, suddenly blazed with resplendent immortal light.

Radiance flowed, nine hues complete, sweeping outward as a sea of light. The starry void trembled; all beings bowed low.

The palace gates slowly opened. Xu Qing emerged!

The transmission decree, now fused into his body, was more than a tool—

it was the supreme credential of the Mo Yang Universe!

In that moment, the palace resonated, the stars resonated, countless domains resonated, the entire universe resonated.

From all directions, innumerable alien cultivators knelt. “Hail the Sovereign!” “Hail the Sovereign!” “Hail the Sovereign!”

Waves of sound rolled endlessly, like crushing waves, shaking the starry void. The momentum swelled, overwhelming the soul.

Facing this, Xu Qing remained calm. Standing in the gate, he closed his eyes.

Upon arriving, opening the palace gates, and absorbing the decree, the Mo Yang Universe had acknowledged its master.

And with that recognition, the entire cosmos now resided within Xu Qing’s heart.

A single thought surged forth like a cataclysmic tide, sweeping all domains, all galaxies, all stars.

Within them, dense immortal qi permeated.

Part emanated from the countless stars themselves; part radiated from the lives of beings dwelling here.

This was the universe nurturing a prodigy!

After a long while, Xu Qing opened his eyes.

As his divine sense withdrew, over a thousand aliens among the crowd flew toward his palace, kneeling once more, speaking respectfully in turn.

“Sovereign, the Mo Yang Universe contains nearly seven hundred trillion star systems. Within each…”

“Sovereign, the Mo Yang Universe comprises numerous tribes…”

“Sovereign, the Mo Yang Universe abounds in resources. Most renowned among them is the Black Sun…”

“Sovereign, the Mo Yang Universe also holds several secret realms and sacred lands. They…”

These arrivals reported the Mo Yang Universe’s details like dutiful officials.

As Xu Qing listened, he suddenly turned his head, gaze fixed on the distance, interrupting their words with a raised finger.

“An immortal dwells there! Who is it?”

He pointed toward the origin where the two horns converged—the fish’s head.

Within his divine sense, it was the only region of utter darkness in the Mo Yang Universe, blocking all perception, radiating terrifying might. At first glance, it resembled a black hole, devouring all.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed a colossal black sun, emitting ebon radiance and flame.

Utterly unique.

And there, his thread of divine sense vanished.

Yet it was not the strange celestial body—resembling both a black hole and a black sun—that dissolved his spiritual sense.

Rather, it was the meditating figure at its very edge.

This being radiated quasi-immortal cultivation fluctuations,

crushing Xu Qing’s spiritual sense with brutal force.

At this moment, beside the Immortal Palace,

as Xu Qing spoke, the gathered cultivators exchanged hesitant glances.

One of them murmured in reply:

“Master, that is Mortu—the remnant of the universe’s first sun, extinguished and transformed.

It is a forbidden zone birthed from the Immortal Palace itself; we are forbidden to approach.”

“As for the one within…”

The speaker faltered further.

Xu Qing’s gaze sharpened.

The cultivator instantly bowed his head.

“That is Lord Kunwu. Like you, Master, he is of the human race.

Before you, Lord Kunwu served as Vice Sovereign of the Moyang Universe.

Only he possesses the right to cultivate within the Immortal Palace’s forbidden grounds.”

“Vice Sovereign?”

Xu Qing’s eyes turned icy.

Pushed my body to its limits after days of relentless travel.

I’ll try to write when I can—my apologies, everyone.
