"The grand event is about to begin. Although Daoyuan Island does not receive guests, we cannot let our guard down."

The island lord stood up, his aura restrained, and gave his instructions in a calm voice.

[Celestial Lord of Heavenly Brightness (Level 3 of the Boundless True Saint): 139000/220000]

A lifespan of 220,000 years!

It seems that this island lord's foundation and cultivation are far inferior to those of the Azure Lotus Divine Lord.

However, anyone who could break through to the Limitless True Saint realm 150,000 years ago was no ordinary person.

Luo Chen never underestimates anyone.

The group began to chat, and Luo Chen, assuming he was a newcomer, listened attentively from the sidelines.

Finally, Tianming Divine Lord's gaze fell upon the seemingly insignificant Luo Chen, and he asked a question.

"The position of deputy island lord has been vacant for a long time. I never expected that I would emerge from seclusion today to welcome Fellow Daoist Luo."

"Hahaha."

Tianming Shenjun seemed easy to talk to, and his laughter was full of boldness.

He had a very clear understanding of what was going on in his mind.

Luo Chen's ability to be directly appointed as the lord of an island must mean he has powerful backing and connections.

The reason why the position of deputy island lord has been vacant for so long is not because no cultivators want to take it, but because many cultivators are interested in this position.

The power struggle among various parties, coupled with the lack of ambition among the disciples on Daoyuan Island, led to the position of deputy island master remaining vacant for a long time.

Daoyuan Island's strength ranks last among all the Immortal Star Islands.

However, due to the existence of the Daoyuan Ancient Tree, the benefits of being the island's owner here far exceed those of other places.

With abundant resources and a cultivation ground located beneath the Dao Source Ancient Tree, it naturally aroused envy from others.

Moreover, becoming an island lord, or even a deputy island lord, is considered to have one foot in the upper echelons, with a completely different status and power.

Much later.

After the high-level meeting on Daoyuan Island ended, Luo Chen returned to his mountain residence alone.

"Xu Lin has indeed arrived safely."

He quietly spread his divine sense and found Xu Lin's figure.

At this moment, Xu Lin was on Star Island, talking with some cultivators he had just met.

His cultivation level was not low; among the assembled cultivators, he was definitely not weak, except for the fact that he had no powerful backing.

Wherever he goes, people will take the initiative to strike up a conversation with him.

On the other hand, the Demon Master is different.

He came with the Cave Mystic Saint Lord of the Ancient Demon Alliance, and his status was much higher than that of some island lords.

The Demon Master resides in a courtyard on the main island, surrounded by cultivators with powerful backgrounds.

Whether they were demons or human cultivators, they all greeted him with a smile.

Luo Chen withdrew his gaze, thought for a moment, and decided to take a stroll through the medicinal field he had chosen.

The herb seeds that he had given to Wan Zixuan to buy with spirit crystals have already been planted.

Now, three years later, this abandoned medicinal herb field has been revitalized, and the air is filled with the fragrance of herbs.

Luo Chen's arrival startled the disciples who were helping him tend the medicinal herb fields.

The disciples approached Luo Chen and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Island Lord."

Luo Chen smiled gently and addressed the crowd.

"Well done. The grand formation will be activated soon. Make good preparations in the next few days."

The disciples became even more respectful, never expecting that the high and mighty island lord would actually consider their needs.

After touring my own medicinal herb field.

Luo Chen arrived at a city; there were many such cities on Star Island.

Most of these places were inhabited by the descendants of disciples.

Within the city, there were no ordinary people, only descendants of cultivators. Even if they weren't particularly talented, living in such an environment, even a pig would have some cultivation.

We entered a restaurant.

Luo Chen ordered a few side dishes and a pot of sake, then sat by the window and quietly watched the sky.

As time went on, more and more powerful beings appeared in the Starfall Ancient Realm.

There are over a hundred Wuji True Saints, and three more Creation Primordial Saints have appeared, which is extremely terrifying.

Luo Chen wondered if the aura of the seemingly immortal powerhouse deep within the Starfall Ancient Realm might appear.

"There must be more to the story behind the Star River Conference."

"Otherwise, so many Creation Primordial Saints wouldn't have gathered here."

He could understand why the Primordial Saint of Limitless Realm came, but he couldn't quite understand why more than a handful of Creation Primordial Saints had arrived.

One can only guess that the arrival of these powerful figures probably has other reasons.

Shaking his head, Luo Chen finished eating and drinking, paid the bill, and left.

These are not things that he, a mere "Dao Xu Realm" cultivator, needs to worry about.

……

The Celestial Galaxy Array slowly activated.

The grand event has begun.

Within the four-sided galaxy surrounding countless star islands, billions of star Dao characters suddenly appeared, rising and falling.

A vast and ancient Daoist voice resonated throughout the ancient realm, and the great war among the stars and rivers of the heavens was launched with a roar!

Divine patterns surged across the four corners of the Star Island, and starlight fell, weaving together to form a shimmering band of light that stretched across the ancient galaxy.

Boundless starlight was drawn out from the surging Milky Way, transforming into a waterfall of starlight that cascaded down.

The thick branches of the ancient Dao Source Tree, reaching into the Milky Way, stirred slightly, and the brilliant green leaves merged into the starlight, with the light of the Dao Source falling upon the Milky Way.

Each leaf is engraved with profound truths and radiant with light. If one can obtain a complete green leaf, one's mind will be clear and one's heart will be enlightened.

On Star Island, the powerful cultivators who came to the gathering felt a sense of lightness throughout their bodies, as if their shackles had been loosened, and the world was filled with opportunities for enlightenment.

The green leaves of the Dao enter the body, nourishing the spirit and soul, and are buried in the heart. The obscure and difficult-to-understand mysteries of the Dao suddenly become clear at this moment.

The Star River Array flows ceaselessly, drawing the Star River to nourish the ancient tree, and the Dao Source Ancient Tree bestows creation, nourishing all living beings.

Luo Chen sat cross-legged atop the mountain, reaching out to take a green leaf enveloped in starlight, holding it in his palm and savoring its beauty.

After a long while, he shook his head slightly, reached out and flicked the green leaf from his palm back into the Milky Way, leaving it for the destined one.

"It's not of much use to me at my current level."

His gaze pierced through the great formation and landed on the central main island.

Inside, several Creation Saints are currently conversing about something.

Within this grand galaxy array, drawing upon the power of the galaxy is merely a passive process.

After the great war began, endless suppressive power was concentrated on the main island.

Luo Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. Through the great formation, he sensed a subtle yet familiar aura on the main island.

The dark aura that had attached itself to the palm of the True Saint Wudao after he was killed back then.

"On the main island of this Starfall Ancient Realm, a dark power even more terrifying than that drop of dark true blood is suppressed!"

Luo Chen remained silent, but as time went on, he was able to sense more and more.

The suppressed darkness was extremely powerful.

As a result, the Starfall Ancient Realm needs to activate the Star River Array approximately every ten thousand years to deepen the seal.

Luo Chen clicked his tongue twice, as if he had discovered something interesting.

While he was watching the play.

A notification sound from a control panel in his mind made him frown.

[The Dark Abyss Demon Lord harbors intense hostility towards you. Do you wish to expend your lifespan to perform a calculation?]

"What the hell? The Black Abyss Demon Lord? Where did he come from?"

A big question mark appeared on Luo Chen's forehead as he stared wide-eyed at the panel.

After a long while, his gaze followed the cause-and-effect line and landed on the main island.

"Could it be that the suppressed monster sensed that I had refined dark power?"
