The young maiden, though appearing to be only in her sweet sixteenth year, had already blossomed into a graceful and elegant figure.
Her bright eyes and white teeth were captivating, her clear eyes seemed to contain a deep, tranquil spring, pure and flawless. Three thousand strands of black hair cascaded like a waterfall down to her pert buttocks. A pristine, snow-white gauze dress, like an immaculate heavenly garment, draped over her, concealing her lovely form.
Her skin, like fine mutton-fat jade, could be said to rival frost and surpass snow in its flawless whiteness, shimmering with brilliant, radiant light, making her appear utterly transcendent.
She seemed to embody all the spiritual beauty of heaven and earth, like a peerless fairy descended from the Ninth Heaven, untouched by worldly affairs, untainted by mortal dust. She gave the impression of a maiden who should only exist in the heavens, a fleeting, illusory vision rarely seen in the mortal world, almost unreal.
It must be said, this young maiden could be deemed breathtakingly beautiful, not just in the present era, but throughout all ages, she would undoubtedly be a fairy who could astonish time itself.
The younger girl looked to be only three or four years old, like a porcelain doll, exquisitely carved from pink jade. Her large, dark eyes, like the most magnificent black gemstones, radiated an adorable, lively spirit.
Even at such a tender age, she had already grown into a very pretty and cute child. Without a doubt, when she matured, she would inevitably become an unparalleled great beauty, likely one who could outshine all others past and present.
Wrapped in immortal light, this pair of sisters, one big and one small, would surely shock any outsider who saw them. For they would discover that the power flowing around the maiden was not any ordinary Dao power, but the mysterious Time Power, glowing brilliantly.
Space is king, Time is supreme. It is the most mysterious and difficult to grasp of the great Dao powers. Yet, the maiden clearly possessed a profound mastery over Time Power.
During this time, the little girl held the maiden's soft hand and spoke up, her voice milky and childish, her large eyes blinking, utterly adorable: "Sister, when will we get there?"
The maiden, holding her little sister's hand with one hand, used her other to gently stroke the little girl's lovely head, her eyes filled with deep, heartfelt affection. "Don't worry, little sister, we'll be back soon. We'll see Dad very soon."
The little girl nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her large, dark eyes also full of longing. "I really want to see Daddy too. I've never seen him before. I heard from Mom and the others that Daddy is very handsome and dashing."
"Yes, Dad is very handsome and dashing. I heard that back in the day, countless beauties wanted to pursue our dad, but Mom and the others managed to win him over," the maiden giggled. "It won't be long now, we'll see him soon."
The little girl nodded happily, then spoke again, a hint of worry in her voice. "But we sneaked out this time. Won't the Moms be very angry?"
Thinking of her several mothers, each a peerless beauty, a fairy of stunning beauty, she knew they would be frantic if they found out they had run away.
Especially the First Mom, it would be even worse. She would probably return at all costs.
But the maiden smiled. "Don't worry, I left letters for the Moms, explaining we're looking for Dad. If we find Dad, they won't be worried. And don't underestimate your sister. On the Ultimate Ancient Path, apart from those guys, your sister is invincible."
"I believe you, Sister," the little girl said sweetly, making the maiden even more doting. She patted her sister's cute little head. "I wonder how shocked Dad will be when he sees us suddenly appear. Just thinking about it makes me excited, hehehe—"
"Chenxi is looking forward to it too—"
Whoosh—
The laughter of the big and little sisters echoed through the Star Sky as the flowing light swiftly traversed towards the distant other side of the cosmos...
As time passed, the undercurrents on the Birth Emperor Star grew increasingly turbulent, with countless powerful figures gathering.
Even Great Powers and sect ancestors, rarely seen on ordinary days, though not exactly commonplace on the Birth Emperor Star, were frequently making appearances now. These were the mightiest experts who had rushed here from all corners of the universe.
Young generation's supremes from the ancient path had gathered in great numbers. More than ten young generation's supremes who had returned later were present, some among them exceptionally powerful. Some had cultivated the Transformation God Realm to the tenth heaven's perfection, others had long since stepped into the Great Power realm, and now some had even reached beyond the fifth heaven, possessing superhuman strength.
Rumors even spoke of the return of the mightiest Overlords of the ancient path, their true whereabouts unknown, their identities a mystery. Once the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body appeared, such peerless existences would bare their ferocious fangs.
It could be said the situation on the Birth Emperor Star was becoming increasingly complex and intricate.
But without a doubt, the ultimate goal was the same, all pointing towards the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body!
Boom—
On the Eastern Barbarian Continent, the heavens split open as a terrifying figure tore through the void and emerged. Beneath him appeared a roc, its aura equally extremely fearsome.
Upon closer inspection, one would find this roc extraordinary. Its roc feathers shimmered with brilliant golden light, pure and flawless, accompanied by ancient great Dao runes. However, this was only true for the feathers on its wings; the other feathers on its body were not like this.
Without a doubt, this was a Golden-Winged Roc. Though not the legendary Golden-Winged Roc from the Mythological Era, it was undoubtedly a pure-blooded descendant, extremely terrifying. It had now grown to an astonishing level, enough to make many Great Powers tremble in fear.
War Saint Qian Xun stood atop the Golden-Winged Roc, a Golden War Spear appearing in his hand. He resembled a golden deity, his aura overwhelming, sweeping through the heavens, his shout shaking the world—
"Battle Saint King, you heartless scoundrel, come out and face your death!"
His voice completely exploded across the Eastern Barbarian Continent, shaking the skies and drawing the attention and gaze of many.
Qian Xun appeared god-like and demonic, like an immortal golden deity, standing tall in the firmament, his surging aura stirring the Nine Heavens.
Not far away, another astonishing fluctuation erupted. A supremely powerful Great Power soared into the sky, coldly shouting, "Who dares to cause trouble here? Seeking death!"
His voice contained a terrifying Dao might, enough to shatter ordinary Heavenly Kings to pieces.
Without a doubt, this Domain belonged to that Great Power, who ruled it as king, becoming the Overlord of this area. Usually, no one dared to resist, and no one even dared to intrude into this Domain, fearing to disturb this Great Power's seclusion.
Now, Qian Xun's loud shout naturally roused him from his seclusion, provoking his anger and prompting him to mete out punishment.
Boom—
Visible to the naked eye, that Great Power didn't even ask questions before directly attacking. A vast expanse of terrifying heaven and earth power gathered, transforming into a divine energy ocean spanning over a hundred thousand li, carrying a dreadful Dao might, and directly blasted towards War Saint Qian Xun. The entire sky seemed to tremble and shatter as if about to collapse.
"A mere third-heaven Great Power dares to rebuke me? It is you who seeks death!"
Qian Xun's cold snort was like thunder. He hurled the Golden War Spear in his hand, which instantly transformed into a sharp golden light, surpassing the barriers of time and space.
