Chapter 700: Chapter 699: The Mysterious Great Array
Then, Qin Changqing began to expand into other Spirit Domains.
Since he reconstructed reincarnation under the rules of the Immortal World, it naturally did not provoke the backlash of heaven and earth; instead, he continually gained things like a stream of merit.
The advantage of these things was that, when proving oneself as a Saint, they were comparable to protective talismans.
Once accumulated, they made success more likely; and even in failure, it was possible to gain a slim chance of survival.
Heavenly Dao Saints wishing to become Great Dao Saints also needed these.
That day, finally, many powerhouses from the Immortal World returned.
Upon their return, they were shocked by what had transpired.
“Immortal Leader Qin Changqing... he’s reached Semi-Saint already?”
Many Immortal Leaders and other Semi-Saints were staggeringly surprised.
“Haha, Qin Changqing has achieved this much. This matrimonial match is sure to be successful. Let’s go, we shall congratulate Qin Changqing,” said the master of the Celestial Court with a hearty laugh.
Soon, he and the many Semi-Saints came to Divine Continent Heaven.
They met with Qin Changqing.
The numerous Semi-Saints felt the aura emanating from Qin Changqing and once again found it somewhat incredible.
It was simply that Qin Changqing’s growth had been too rapid.
His combat power too formidable.
A single battle where he killed no less than two Semi-Saints was an astonishing combat achievement.
By now, in the hearts of the many Immortal Leaders, Qin Changqing’s strength and position had already somewhat surpassed their own.
Even the Flowers Celestial Master and Moon God, who knew of Qin Changqing’s monstrous nature, were somewhat startled.
In this battle, Qin Changqing had thwarted the Monster Immortal Realm’s conspiracy, securing Bai Huatian, and lived up to the trust placed in him by the Flowers Celestial Master.
The Flowers Celestial Master was extremely grateful.
However, with so many people now present, the Flowers Celestial Master did not yet have the chance to speak with Qin Changqing alone.
“Immortal friend Qin Changqing, you must certainly accept this congratulatory gift~”
The Celestial Court Master came forward to present Qin Changqing with a gift.
Following that, other Immortal Leaders also came forward with congratulatory gifts.
Beyond the Immortal Leaders, there were several Semi-Saints in the Immortal World who usually remained in seclusion and did not reveal themselves.
Qin Changqing accepted the gifts,
“I didn’t expect you to reach Semi-Saint so quickly. Regarding that prospective marriage mentioned earlier, it seems more and more like a done deal now. However, you will have to make the journey yourself. If it works out, it will be a wonderful event. If not, Hu will have no choice but to give you my daughter as your wife,” the Celestial Court Master said.
He brought up the marriage issue once again.
It seemed that the person he intended to introduce to Qin Changqing... was not his daughter after all.
After verification, the girl statues opened the door.
From outside, one could not see inside.
“Enter, but do not approach within ten steps of the Fairy; otherwise, it will be perilous,” one girl statue said in a clear voice.
“Go ahead, young friend,”
the Celestial Court Master said.
Qin Changqing stepped into the palace.
Upon entering, he discovered that this palace housed a microcosm within itself.
Celestial bodies gathered here, numerous and not just one of each.
There were nine suns, ninety-nine moons, and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred ninety-nine stars.
These stars were real stars, not distant fixed stars.
And the suns, also real suns.
Though not as large as those in the Immortal World.
Yet in the microcosm, they too were enormous.
At this moment, these celestial bodies were all revolving around a person.
That was... the small stone statue in the center.
Though tiny, the statue had become the heart of this microcosm.
“What a profound Great Array,”
Qin Changqing whispered softly.
The cosmos within this palace was in fact an incredibly profound Great Array.
These celestial bodies were not just to complement the significance of the statue.
They had substantial meaning.
With their existence, the statue could remain unchanged for countless millennia.
Meanwhile, preserving Zi Wei Fairy’s last bit of spiritual essence.
He took one step, then another, two steps, three steps, walking towards the statue.
Only a few steps in, Qin Changqing paused.
At this moment, the statue was still billions of miles away from him.
He could go no further.
The “ten steps” said by the girl statue were not the ten steps of a common person, but those of an Immortal.
The concept of distance for an Immortal differed naturally from that of a mortal.
Not to mention, those qualified to come here were all Semi-Saints.
