Chapter 1336: Secrets of Brilliant Heaven

This chapter is updated by Novels.pl

When Brilliant Heaven was born, this first ray of light appeared… Inside Brilliant Heaven, Xu Qing sat cross-legged next to the sleeping Erniu, looking down at the shimmering light in his hand. The glow reflected in his eyes.

Master Seventh was seated cross-legged next to him. “Do what you want to do. I’ll serve as dharma protector for you. I’m also very curious about this legendary light that the Brilliant Heaven Godfolk worshiped, and how it was born… What secrets does this mysterious light hold?”

Master Seventh’s gaze lingered on the origin light in Xu Qing’s palm. Years ago, Master Seventh had studied that light, but had not come up with any answers.

Xu Qing nodded and closed his fingers around the origin light. He closed his fingers tight. The light flickered dramatically, then turned into a host of threads that sank into Xu Qing’s skin and flowed through his body. Slowly, they filled his flesh, his meridians, his bones, and all parts of him.

As the process went on, Xu Qing’s eyes shone brightly, and his aura surged. The wind began to scream around him.

Master Seventh watched closely, all while placing protective symbols around the area.

As for Xu Qing, his heart was pounding.

Ringsource? he thought.

As the mysterious light spread through him, he could sense that it contained an extremely pure ringsource! Though there wasn’t much, the level of purity was no less than what he had sensed from the Fourth Star Ring’s primeval motherworld! The realization filled him with a strange sensation. Before, whether it was when he had absorbed the light of the Brilliant Heaven Godfolk, or when he had held the origin light in his hand, he had not sensed any ringsource.

Well, isn’t this interesting.

With that, he sent his divine will deeply into the light to study it. Of course, there were hindrances. The light seemed to contain a will of its own, which wanted to prevent Xu Qing from studying it, and actually rejected his attempt at fusion. Apparently, it would only acknowledge Brilliant Heaven Godfolk!

Even though Xu Qing had some daybreak light within him, the fusion still didn’t go smoothly. When Xu Qing saw that happening, his eyes flashed coldly. The canon and statute within him erupted, swirled through him, then viciously crushed down onto the light in an attempt to disassemble it.

The light emitted strong fluctuations in an obvious attempt to fight back.

The coldness in Xu Qing’s eyes spilled out into the open. He lifted his right hand, and Immortal Lord Mi Ming’s mirror shard appeared, and a cold light erupted from it into Xu Qing. It shot toward the mysterious origin light, and bolstered Xu Qing in his attempt to suppress it.

The mysterious light trembled, yet continued to resist.

Seeing that, Xu Qing waved his hand, and Grandmaster Bai’s lamp appeared in front of him. The wick ignited. The eye of the god inside the lamp opened a crack.

Godlight shot toward Xu Qing. Xu Qing shivered as the power of the lamp rushed toward the origin light he was trying to crush. When the power of the lamp smashed into the light, something like a miserable wail echoed out from inside.

It wasn’t the voice of a person, but rather, more like a dao resonance. As the voice rang out, the mysterious origin light pulsed more violently. It seemed focused on fleeing, except that under Xu Qing’s tight control, that wasn’t possible.

In fact, it was gradually starting to weaken. Time slipped by slowly but surely. A day later, the struggle and the expulsion attempts reached their end.

The fact that this origin light lasted for so long shows… that this light is absolutely extraordinary!

Xu Qing’s hands flashed in a double-handed incantation gesture, and his canon erupted and crushed the last bit of strength in the light.

The light couldn’t hold out any longer… It dimmed. The moment that happened, Xu Qing’s divine will was able to enter the interior of the light…

Xu Qing’s mind and heart trembled. He even started to breathe more heavily.

This…

There in his senses, was a vast, boundless… sea of ringsource! It was incredibly strong! And it was incredibly pure! The quantity present was terrifying. In fact, beneath the sea was thick crystal like a plain of ice. When the ringsource broke through a certain level of strength, that is what it became.

This place…

Xu Qing struggled to control his breathing. In the bottom of his heart, he understood the secret of the light.

If you consider the light to be a lamp, then ringsource is the wick! When the ringsource reaches a certain level of strength and purity, then it creates its own power of expulsion and sends out light. Unless you go into the very depths of the light, you can’t sense the ringsource! No wonder Master said that the birth of the Brilliant Heaven Godfolk had something to do with this light…

Xu Qing’s heart was racing. Upon emerging from the chaotic flow of space-time in the Fourth Star Ring, he was a Summer Immortal, but his canon and statute transcended that level. It was not at the Summer Immortal level, but rather, at the level of an Immortal Lord! That was how he had statute power.

But Xu Qing knew very clearly that unless he fused with his god clone, he couldn’t even unleash the battle prowess of a partial Immortal Lord. The reason was that he had lacked the ringsource necessary to go from Summer Immortal to Immortal Lord! He needed too much, and couldn’t get enough in a short time.

Regardless of anything, his canon and statute had already transcended, so the only path that remained in front of him… was to become an Immortal Lord. And that would require time and a stockpile.

If I devoured this light that gave birth to the Brilliant Heaven Godfolk…

Xu Qing licked his lips. However, he didn’t immediately begin to absorb the ringsource. Instead, he sent his divine will down into the sea. The moment he made contact with the crystal, his canon and statute erupted. Mi Ming’s canon and statute joined in, and the eye of the god inside the lamp opened all the way. Those three types of power smashed into the crystal.

He wanted to send his divine will into the crystal to see what lay beneath it! And so, his divine will pierced into it and began to spread rapidly. It worked well at first. But as his divine will went deeper, the crystal, or perhaps some other mysterious force associated with the light, began to push back with unrelenting force. As a result, Xu Qing’s divine will slowed down and showed signs that it would soon be rejected.

At that critical moment, Xu Qing’s heart pounded. “Master!”

Outside, Master Seventh could sense what was happening. Without a moment of hesitation, he lifted his hand and roared, “Deep Earth!”

The power of the Deep Earth star ring caused the image of Deep Earth to descend onto Xu Qing. Xu Qing shivered as the power of Deep Earth arrived, giving an extra kick to his divine will. As a result, it was able to shove back down on the expulsion of the sea of ringsource. That downward push seemed to break some sort of barrier. A heaven-rending, earth-crushing boom rang out, and Xu Qing’s divine will broke the shackles.

He saw… a planet that seemed to be made completely of some sort of special type of flesh! Dense ringsource and incomparable mutagen filled it, along with innumerable godly voices that distorted everything.

The environment, the planet, the fluctuations, and everything else were so familiar that Xu Qing immediately thought, The primeval homeworld! Brilliant Heaven is actually the primeval motherworld of the Ninth Star Ring!

But what astonished him to the core was that… he wasn’t just looking at a single primeval motherworld! There were two! Two primeval motherworlds were fused together! It was like a bizarre, binary system! This was the source of that extremely mysterious and powerful origin light!

As Xu Qing reeled, the two primeval motherworlds that made the binary system trembled. That trembling caused a terrifying power of expulsion to erupt from the special primeval motherworlds.

It was incomparable, and completely surpassed the primeval motherworld of the Fourth Star Ring. Mountain-toppling, sea-draining momentum rumbled unstoppably toward Xu Qing. All of a sudden, Xu Qing’s divine will trembled and backed away. But the force of expulsion still hit it, and sent it shooting back to where he sat cross-legged. Blood sprayed out of his mouth.

Master Seventh shivered, his face turning pale. “That place…”

In the process of bolstering Xu Qing, he had also caught a glimpse of what Xu Qing had seen!

“Primeval motherworld…” Xu Qing said in a hoarse voice. Even as he caught his breath, realization hit him. “The light worshiped by the Brilliant Heaven Godfolk really is the first ray of light that came with the birth of Brilliant Heaven. At the same time… it’s the key to opening the primeval motherworld!”
