Chapter 1644: Measure Square Rule Compass

Editor: Atlas Studios

Amidst the flashes of lightning and roars of thunder, the figure of the Fourth True Monarch tore through the sky, shattering the void.

His speed was astonishing, like a spear capable of piercing the heavens and earth, wrapped in endless lightning.

He surged forward with an overwhelming force.

In the midst of the thunderous boom, he shattered the barriers of the sword furnace with ease. As the cracks spread and the barrier crumbled with a crackling sound, his figure suddenly appeared, standing resolutely within the storm and rain.

He stood beside the sword furnace!

He stood in front of Xu Qing!

The aura he stirred swept in all directions, as though it was stirring up a storm here.

Xu Qing’s clothes and long hair fluttered in the storm. However, his figure was like a mountain and he didn’t take half a step back.

He calmly looked at the Fourth True Monarch who had appeared in front of him and spoke.

“Fourth Senior Brother is in such a good mood tonight.”

“As expected, it’s you!”

A hoarse voice filled with complicated thoughts slowly rang out from the Fourth True Monarch’s mouth.

As his voice echoed, a large amount of lightning swam around the Fourth True Monarch’s body. Finally, it spread to the ground through his legs and spread in all directions.

His eyes instantly… locked onto Xu Qing. The last shred of hope in his heart shattered completely.

As turbulent thoughts surged within him, his expression grew increasingly grim, and the murderous intent in his gaze reached an unprecedented intensity.

“In terms of hiding yourself, you have indeed surprised me greatly…”

The Fourth True Monarch lifted his foot and took a step toward Xu Qing.

“The rumors from before were spread by you!”

“After that, I used Xie Lingzi to set up a trap to lure you out, but you threw the fox beauty out.”

The Fourth True Monarch took another step.

“I arranged for Yuanshan Su to make a move and you relied on your alliance with Xie Lingzi to grant the fox beauty an identity, causing me to fail in driving her away.”

“After that, I unveiled everything, successfully inciting Xie Lingzi to rebel, while you… forced Yuanshan Su to bow, allowed Zhong Chi to succeed, compelled Xie Lingzi to take his own life, and had heaven’s chosen Li obstruct me.”

“I admit that your methods are indeed ingenious!”

“After all, an identity that cannot be obtained being overturned means that in this decisive battle, I have already lost any chance of victory.

“Even at this moment, as long as I make a move here… it will create waves!”

“I think this is also within your calculations.”

The Fourth True Monarch took his third step.

He knew very well that in this fourth realm, his identity and that of the other party were not meant to clash in normal history. Therefore, once he made a move, waves would inevitably arise.

Moreover, as the battle continued and injuries appeared, the waves would only grow larger.

“But… in this game, I also have an option that won’t lead to defeat!”

The moment the Fourth True Monarch’s fourth step landed, his aura rumbled and heavenly lightning exploded in all directions. A terrifying aura suddenly rose.

The killing intent in his eyes erupted explosively as he headed straight for Xu Qing!

His option to avoid defeat was to expel Xu Qing’s consciousness!

As long as he could achieve that, even though he had already failed in maintaining order, expelling his opponent would mean he hadn’t truly lost.

Moreover, there was still a chance to turn the tide later on!

After all, the key moment in this fourth realm was the day of the grand wedding!

As his voice echoed, his aura rose and his figure rushed out. Chains formed by his Ordinance of Order appeared out of thin air.

There were tens of thousands of iron chains densely packed together.

It filled the world and emitted a resplendent light, causing the night sky where the sword furnace was to become brighter and the lightning to dim. Everything paled in comparison to the order.

Not only that, but behind the Fourth True Monarch, layers upon layers of formations rumbled into existence.

There were a total of nine layers, each more complex and vast than the last, shining with different colors of light.

Among them were the seven colors of the rainbow, as well as black and white.

The nine colors and nine formations spun in unison, emanating terrifying pressure that shook the heavens and earth.

Coupled with the countless iron chains and the Fourth True Monarch’s own power, all of it surged toward Xu Qing, seeking to suppress him.

He went all out!

At the same time, in the sword furnace, Qianjun and Piyi who were shocked by Xu Qing’s words clearly sensed the changes in the outside world.

“Whether the Young Lord is an outsider like us…”

“For us, now is the last and best opportunity!”

“While they are fighting, let’s go all out and activate the immortal swords to take shape!”

“Afterward, whatever happens here will have nothing to do with us. Even if they shatter time and space or cause chaos among themselves, we will bear no consequence or karma from it!”

“The fortune of the fourth that belongs to us is about to be within our grasp!”

In the sword furnace, Qianjun and Piyi communicated with their divine senses. After that, they seized the opportunity and erupted with all their might. They spared no expense to urge the formation of the immortal swords, causing its speed to increase dramatically.

In an instant, the sword furnace rumbled and the sword energy inside surged into the sky.

The immortal swords were about to be born!

A sharp glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. He naturally saw the changes in the sword furnace and understood that the other party wanted to take advantage of the battle between him and Star Ring to take form in advance and avoid karma.

At the same time, he was even more clear that if he were outside, he wouldn’t be a match for Star Ring.

As the number one star, the Ordinance he had self-comprehended was profound. He was also a peak Ruler and was half-step into the Great Emperor realm.

He even had the battle record of defeating a Great Emperor…

However, this was the fourth realm.

The host’s body could make up for the weakness of his insufficient cultivation.

Even though the other party was in the Fourth True Monarch’s body and could unleash strength that surpassed his own, the space-time waves in the surroundings were also Xu Qing’s weapons.

Being in these waves was also the most suitable battlefield for him.

In addition… the host’s identity was also a weapon.

Hence, in the face of the incoming Fourth True Monarch, Xu Qing lifted his right hand and waved it. Immediately, an invisible space-time storm rumbled and exploded in front of him.

This caused the iron chains that rushed over to turn blurry.

At the same time, space-time sand floated in front of Xu Qing, enveloping his entire body, allowing his existence to fuse into space-time.

He became blurry.

“Your plan is indeed exquisite, but your weakness… is that you’re too weak!”

The Fourth True Monarch stared at Xu Qing and pointed at the sky.

Immediately, the speed of the nine-layer array formations that had appeared earlier increased greatly. A vortex formed with a rumbling sound and an ancient aura spread out from the vortex.

A cyan stone tablet was drawn out of the vortex.

The moment it appeared, it gave off a dense feeling of time and vastness.

There were unknown, profound words flowing like runes on the stone tablet.

The surrounding chains of order trembled even more. The power of order soared at this moment.

It was as though this stone tablet was one of the origins of order!

At that moment, it was drawn out by the Fourth True Monarch and became the core of the array formation. It then pressed down toward Xu Qing.

“With order as law, expel!”

Heaven and earth changed color, winds surged, and the cyan stone tablet roared, spiraling with the vortex of formations. Carrying the might of order, it emanated the power of expulsion, pressing down on Xu Qing with overwhelming force.

The space-time waves also showed signs of dissipating in front of it.

Even if Xu Qing fused into space-time, he wouldn’t be able to hide.

He was about to be completely suppressed.

Xu Qing suddenly lifted his head and spoke softly.

“Fourth Senior Brother, your actions upon arriving here… have been too much. You’ve already stepped into the chaotic sea of my space-time.”

As he spoke, he lifted his hand and waved it gently forward.

It stirred the sand of time that permeated the surroundings, causing the sand to drift away.

They collided and swayed, forming different timelines.

They were disordered timelines.

Time didn’t just speed up the passage of time, reverse the flow of time, or freeze moments.

There was also a deeper manifestation.

It was like a long river of nothingness, omnipresent.

However, it wasn’t fixed or unchanging. Whether influenced by external forces or other alterations, time could undergo various changes.

For example, the Time Desert formed by Aurora Immortal Lord’s wife’s life soul treasure.

What was displayed was time branching.

“Those who enter my chaotic sea will have to withstand the power of time. Every move of yours will form a disordered timeline. In the countless timelines, you will either die or go crazy!”

A cold glint rose in Xu Qing’s eyes.

“Entering the sea is bitter, so much so that there’s no end to calamities. Hence, it’s called… Seamless!”

The moment his voice echoed, on every iron chain in the surroundings, on every rune of the array formation, even on the cyan stone tablet that was descending, and even the Fourth True Monarch’s main body.

At this moment… as the space-time sand spread and collided, countless time threads appeared.

It wrapped around them all, causing the iron chains, array formations, cyan tablet, and the Fourth True Monarch to distort and blur until they overlapped.

The chaotic sea of space-time erupted.

Using chaos to fight order!

Facing this chaotic sea, the Fourth True Monarch, who was surrounded by countless timelines, stared at Xu Qing with a sharp glint in his eyes.

“Such a method to break the order…”

“If it’s in the outside world, it will indeed cause some trouble for me.”

“However, do you know why I inhabited the Fourth True Monarch’s body?”

The Fourth True Monarch lifted his foot and took a step forward. As a rumbling sound rang out, ripples appeared in the chaotic space-time sea.

The chaotic sea was chaotic but the ripples that appeared were all orderly!

“That’s because the Fourth True Monarch was the founder of my Star Ring Tower!”

“Although he died in the calamity of the Immortal Palace, the Order Tower he created has continued outside the Immortal Palace until now. However, its name has been changed to Star Ring Tower!”

“I inherited the name of Star Sing and I also comprehended the order. Hence… here, I have the same order as the Fourth True Monarch and can display the Fourth True Monarch’s source of order!”

The Fourth True Monarch lifted his head and starlight shone in his eyes.

Two seas of stars appeared in his eyes at this moment!

In every sea of stars, there were billions of stars that shone and arranged themselves…

There was also a vast voice that echoed in the world.

“Order is the rule.”

“Without rules, one cannot form a square or a circle.”

“The ‘rule’ refers to the compass, while the ‘measure’ refers to the square.”

“The so-called straight measure aligns with the right string, the inclined measure observes the height, the inverted measure gauges the depth, the horizontal measure knows the distance, the circular measure forms a circle, and the combined measure forms a square.”

As the voice echoed word by word, the Fourth True Monarch’s left eye revealed a sea of stars, the constellations aligning to form a square ruler!

His right eye spun, forming a wheel of heaven and earth!

He was… defining life and death with the square, and delineating the cycle of life with the circle!
