Chapter 1173: Begone, Sir Star Ring!
Sir Star Ring’s heart swelled with astonishment. He felt like an infinitude of lightning bolts were smashing into him, causing him to struggle to breathe.... He could clearly sense an unstoppable force slowly peeling his consciousness away from his host’s body. It was completely irreversible!
The so-called predestined affinity was the main reason why he had chosen Fourth True Monarch as his host. Right now, that foundation was collapsing! The unstoppable force was causing his consciousness to desiccate and rot. It even affected the surrounding world, like rotting leaves rapidly withering away.
At the same time, orders and natural laws alike fell into nothing. That included the golden chain that was the manifestation of Sir Star Ring’s canon. As Sir Star Ring’s consciousness withered, the chain... broke! Rings cracked apart, causing indescribable pain to Sir Star Ring’s consciousness. For the first time in his entire life, he felt terrified. As for the judgment he had called forth.... The moment the marriage contract appeared, the judgment could not be enforced!
The thirteen coffins trembled, and the voices inside of them slowly went silent.... In fact, it was as if everything was being reversed. The words that had been spoken formed canon and materialized, but now they were sent spinning away until they didn’t exist. The might of an Immortal Lord surpassed all else in existence.
It wasn’t just Sir Star Ring who was flabbergasted. So were the two immortal swords. Hordeslayer and Rampart hovered in midair, trembling. The scene playing out in front of them surpassed anything they could have imagined possible. In fact, event after event on this day had surpassed anything they could conceive. Some mysterious person had acquired an identity that should have been impossible to acquire. In an inconceivable twist, they had been forced to be bonded to him.
And now... that marriage contract appeared! Contrary to expectation, the words written on the contract had been put to use.
As a result, Hordeslayer and Rampart were deeply, deeply shaken.
In this space-time, the marriage contract was above everything else in terms of position and significance. It was paramount! Contained within it were blessings from Immortal Lord Aurora to his son. Those blessings contained a will. The will permeated each word in the contract, making each word canon in this space-time. They were law! When canon flowed, order had to bow its head, and rules had to conform. Acting in contradiction would amount to acting in contradiction to the will of Immortal Lord Aurora.
In all of the immortal palace, there were only two people who could use such an item, and they were Aurora and his son. Therefore, the moment the marriage contract appeared, the conclusion of this event was set in stone and could not be changed.
The reason Xu Qing could cover some of the words on the contract in order to make it conform to his needs of the moment... was that written up on it was the name of the young lord who he had possessed! It went without saying that he qualified!
There was just one element he needed, and that element... was space-time waves. And the space-time waves needed to reach a certain level before they would be effective.
