Chapter 265 Ancient Emperor Qilin
The next moment, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, and he suddenly swung the Qilin Staff.
The staff swelled up, and endless divine light burst forth, shooting straight into the sky, instantly tearing apart billions of clouds, and sweeping into the depths of the universe.
Wherever the divine light passed, the stars in the tens of thousands of galaxies in the distant sky were pulverized like dust, leaving not a single ray of starlight behind.
Giant galaxies, comparable in size to the Milky Way, vanished suddenly like dazzling fireworks before this force.
A desolate corner of the universe vanished directly into chaos.
The power of the ancient emperor was terrifying!
A single, casual strike possesses the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. If this strike were to land on an ancient planet, billions of living beings would likely be instantly reduced to nothingness.
Fortunately, ancient life-bearing planets are rare in the universe, and the attack from the Qilin Ancient Emperor landed in the edge of the universe, thus preventing a disaster.
Gai Jiuyou, hundreds of millions of miles away, looked at the Boundless Star System disappearing from his sight, his brows furrowed even more, and his breathing became rapid.
"Why did the Ancient Qilin Emperor unleash such power so soon after its birth? Is it truly destined to unleash a dark upheaval?"
"But this attack isn't directed at any life-bearing planet; it's more like it's venting its anger on the void."
He couldn't understand it at all, and this strange behavior made him increasingly uneasy.
The commotion caused by the Ancient Emperor's attack not only alarmed the powerful beings of the present world, but also awakened the dormant existences in the universe: the Primordial Ancient Mine, the Sea of Reincarnation, and the Divine Ruins—
In the forbidden zones of life, faint gazes suddenly shone forth. The ancient supreme beings, who were also in slumber, were all startled by this familiar imperial aura, their tone filled with doubt and vigilance.
"Is it that Qilin? Wasn't he supposed to be dormant for millions of years, never having stepped outside the mine?"
"Making such a commotion right after waking up, could it be that its lifespan has run out and it's in a hurry to find living beings to steal its lifespan?"
"Heh, is that the kind of person he is—?"
At the same time, in the great imperial families and ancient dynasties all over the universe, one after another, the long-sealed imperial artifacts suddenly awakened, radiating billions of feet of rosy light and shimmering with immortal radiance!
These imperial artifacts floated above their respective clans, their divine light soaring into the sky.
Even the starry sky paled in comparison to this countless celestial lights.
In an instant, the once desolate and lifeless universe became bustling with activity upon the awakening of the Qilin Ancient Emperor.
But this also exudes a suffocating sense of oppression.
Everyone believed that a turmoil that would sweep across all the heavens and myriad worlds was about to begin.
However, only the person involved, the Ancient Emperor Qilin, was completely unaware of what had happened.
All that could be seen was a transparent panel still standing in front of me.
That devastating attack just now could easily shatter even a galaxy.
Yet the panel remained intact, standing in its original spot, with the writing on it still clearly visible.
[Zhutian Pavilion invites you to become a customer. Would you like to enter and browse the products to purchase your desired item?]
"Who on earth dares to play such a mystery in front of me?" The Ancient Emperor Qilin frowned.
Inside the Zhutian Pavilion, before the astonishment and doubt in Xu Qing's eyes had faded, he saw boundless light within the pavilion converging towards the center of the entrance like rivers flowing into the sea!
A figure slowly took shape amidst the light.
He was a middle-aged man with thick, long blue hair that cascaded down his shoulders like a galaxy, each strand of which was shrouded in a faint aura of chaos. His purple pupils were sharp as celestial blades that could split the heavens and earth, and wherever his gaze swept, even time and space seemed to freeze, displaying the aura of an emperor who looked down upon all ages.
His body was so towering that it could not be measured, and boundless immortal light radiated from his body. Upon closer inspection, those immortal lights turned out to be vast star rivers!
In the Milky Way, black holes spun, and the sun, moon, and stars floated like dust. The person before him was like a living universe, like an ancient god who created the world, vast and magnificent, carrying a powerful pressure that made people tremble.
Seeing such a vast and magnificent form, Xu Qing felt as if he were witnessing a wondrous sight.
This is a divine being whose body is as vast as the universe!
Even a massive celestial structure like the Milky Way appears as insignificant as a hair in its presence.
One person is comparable to the size of a cosmic nation! One person is comparable to the vastness of the primordial universe!
The Ancient Emperor Qilin has arrived.
When the Ancient Emperor Qilin stepped into the Pavilion of All Heavens with this vast Dharma body, an eerie sense of incongruity instantly filled the air.
It's as if a giant whale that has traversed the Milky Way has suddenly crashed into a small fish tank, and even space and time seem to be about to burst!
"So you're the one who disturbed my slumber?!" The Ancient Emperor Qilin locked his gaze on Xu Qing, who sat high in the main seat, gripped the blue-gold Qilin Staff tightly in his right hand, and took a sudden step forward.
But just before his feet touched the ground, Xu Qing smiled.
"So what if it is?"
boom!!!
Before the words were even finished, the Zhutian Pavilion suddenly trembled violently as if being torn apart by a tremendous force, like a cosmic explosion!
The tiny pavilion suddenly began to expand endlessly before the Qilin Ancient Emperor! It swelled!
Xu Qing, who was originally so close, suddenly seemed to be billions of light-years away, and even his figure became blurred in the expanding space-time.
In an instant, the originally tiny Zhutian Pavilion was transformed into a cosmic space filled with boundless starry rivers!
The smiling man suddenly seemed unattainable.
"What's going on?!" The Qilin Ancient Emperor's pupils suddenly contracted.
The next moment, the surprise and doubt in the eyes of the Qilin Ancient Emperor instantly turned into a raging fire.
He was the supreme ruler who had governed the nine heavens and ten earths. When had he ever been mocked like this?
"You're asking for it!"
A furious shout exploded from his mouth!
The figure of the Qilin Ancient Emperor suddenly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a lingering afterimage flickering in space and time.
With one step, the illusory starry sky around him was stretched into a band of light, and the galaxies in front of him, which were like dust, retreated rapidly into blurry points of light.
But Xu Qing's figure ahead was still shrouded in an impenetrable fog, seemingly close at hand, yet actually unreachable.
No matter how fast the Qilin Ancient Emperor accelerated, Xu Qing still left at an even greater speed!
No, Xu Qing didn't move at all; he just sat there. It was the surrounding space and time that were being stretched and expanded!
Time passed slowly, but the figure before the Qilin Ancient Emperor had vanished.
The space-time before them had changed drastically, with countless galaxies appearing endlessly, yet never cycling, causing even the ancient Qilin Emperor to lose his way within them.
The Qilin Ancient Emperor seemed to have arrived in a time and space that could never be reached.
Some mortals refer to the distance light travels in one year as a light-year.
But how long did the Ancient Emperor of Qilin fly? A day? Or a year?
I don't know, in this ever-expanding spacetime, time seems to have lost its meaning.
How far did he fly?!
Billions of light-years, trillions of light-years? Trillions of light-years?!
No! He left behind a spatial and temporal distance that was countless times larger than that number.
No matter how fast he accelerated or how explosive he became, the end of the Zhutian Pavilion seemed to stretch endlessly.
Just when he was about to exhaust his life force and even his imperial status was beginning to dim, a calm yet absolutely controlling voice suddenly rang in his mind: "Stop looking, you are in my hands."
The Qilin Ancient Emperor suddenly stopped, his pupils contracted sharply, and he subconsciously looked up.
The sight before him froze him in place, his mind going blank.
A gigantic human face covered the entire space-time area, smiling at him.
The next moment, the Zhutian Pavilion, which had been expanding infinitely, began to shrink at a visible speed. The billions of light-years and hundreds of billions of light-years that he had flown through receded and shrank like a tide.
It eventually transformed into a hand.
As for himself, his vast physical body, comparable to the primordial universe, was shrinking continuously until it was only the size of a grain of rice, and landed steadily in Xu Qing's outstretched palm!
