Chapter 487 Last Month (3)
As soon as Ji Rong flew away from the star, she saw white, ethereal chains, resembling chains of order, extending from the full moon and gently spreading across the planet.
The chill spread outwards along these ethereal chains, and even though she was nearly a thousand miles away, Ji Rong could feel the coldness under her feet. She quickly flew a little higher.
"Comfortable! So comfortable!" Yuan Jun's usually cold voice revealed a hint of pleasure. He opened his dark eyes and looked up at Ji Rong, calling out, "Lord Ji, thank you for bringing me here!"
This place is actually more suitable for me; it allows me to unleash my chilling power without restraint. My world can finally be built.
Ji Rong watched as wisps of cold air flowed from Yuanjun's body and into the star, guessing that this extreme cold air was something that Yuanjun had accumulated over time but had not expelled while exercising power, and could be classified as the same as the black fire within Xijun's body.
Yuanjun dissipated the cold light within her body, and forty percent of the stars beneath her were frozen away, while her form gradually grew larger.
Then he saw the full moon that He had entwined around, like a wheel, pushing the planet that was enormous to Him forward.
"Lord Ji! Please show me the way." Yuanjun poked her head out and excitedly called out to Ji Rong, "I want to move my kingdom closer to the Ascension Platform, so that it will be the shortest route back to the Moon Shadow Mountains in the future."
Ji Rong responded and transformed into a giant magic bird, leading the way.
Once back within the view of the Ascension Platform, they chose a location not far from it.
This place is still quite a distance from the sun, so it won't be too scorching, which is just enough to counteract the icy coldness that Yuanjun releases into the stars.
This place has been cleared out. All the larger pieces of loose soil have been removed by the cultivators brought up by the Qingtanzi and used to build the Heavenly Path, leaving it empty and desolate.
Looking towards the Kyushu region from here, one can see a huge planet radiating a white hazy blue light.
Yuanjun pushed the star to the place Ji Rong specified, then said breathlessly to Ji Rong, "Lord Ji, I have two things to tell you."
The first thing I will do is to use my authority to completely integrate and imprint this star.
During the fusion, I will fall into a deep sleep, so you can go back to your work and don't wait for me.
When you return, tell them: remember, do not enter the illusion I create. Using this star beneath me as a reference point, anyone entering within five thousand miles will surely die; within thirty thousand miles, those lacking willpower will become lost.
Ji Rong nodded and said, "I understand. When will you wake up? What if you don't wake up?"
Yuan Jun nodded slightly and said, "Lord Ji, this is the second thing I want to tell you;
If I haven't awakened by three hundred years, I'll have to trouble you and Juejun to find a way to refresh this star with the Origin Stream.
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong transformed into a magical bird and flew to Yuan Jun's side, asking, "Will you wake up after the Source Flow is refreshed?"
Yuanjun's smile was incredibly warm this time, and even the full moon seemed to turn a shade of yellow-orange. He said, "Lord Ji, as long as you refresh the source stream, the Moon Lord will surely wake up."
If He doesn't remember you, then I'll have to trouble Lord Ji to make several more trips to release the creatures from the Moon Palace, and then ask Lord Jue to properly teach the new Moon Lord the ways of the gods.”
"Could He be you?"
“If He remembers nothing at all, it certainly won’t be me, Lady Ji, but what does it matter?”
Ji Rong said seriously, "Then what else can I do to help you? Do you need me to go and ask Jue Jun for some source streams to send to you?"
Yuanjun said, "Thank you for your kindness, Lady Ji. I have prepared enough source material for this trip."
This fusion is a transformation of authority; the old self may not survive, but a new self will surely be born.
"My lady, the Moon Lord has always been prone to dreams. If He remembers nothing at that time, please do not mention me, lest He mistake me for someone else and cause Him unnecessary trouble."
Ji Rong nodded and said, "I understand, senior." After saying that, she headed towards the Ascension Platform.
Behind her, Yuanjun was once again surrounded by dazzling light, and the full moon, which was also radiating dazzling light, grew larger again.
The light nearly swallowed the figure of the Yuanjun, making him less agile, but he still managed to pull out a beam of light from the moon and throw it heavily to the ground.
The light and shadow fell to the ground, quickly spreading out in the moonlight and growing into a palace.
It's the Moon Palace.
"Bathed in the radiant light, the shadow in my heart is reflected."

Before the Ascension Platform, the passage was closed. There was a string of words simply arranged on it with earth and stones. Ji Rong glanced at it and realized that Qing Tanzi had led the cultivators back. They didn't know when Ji Rong would return, so they left the message here.
The meaning of that word is: "Opens every six months".
The heavens are silent, with no sign of the passing of the sun or moon.
Ji Rong didn't know how long she and Yuan Jun had been wandering in the Outer Heavens. She looked inward and felt that the spiritual energy within her body was still surging. She could stay for a few more years without any problem. So she found a place to rest nearby and waited while observing Yuan Jun's condition.
The star where Yuanjun was located was constantly shining, and streams of cold air were stimulated by the scorching sun's fire, scattering in the air and condensing into water droplets.
If Yuanjun hadn't reminded her, Ji Rong would definitely have stayed behind to observe how power would transform.
For now, she simply watched from afar, to prevent any newcomers from mistaking the stars that Yuanjun was merging for treasures and then calling on their friends to go treasure hunting.
After nearly three months, Qingyangzi finally led his team up.
As soon as they reached the Ascension Platform, Ji Rong blocked them in front of it, pointed to the place where Yuanjun was, and said solemnly, "Senior Brother Gao Yang, that is the extraterrestrial training ground that Yuanjun chose for himself. Within 30,000 miles of that star, there are all the illusions created during the transformation of Yuanjun's power. Once you go in, you basically can't get out, so you must not go near it."
The monks bowed and said "Yes," then each took out their ritual implements and went to do their work.
Qingyangzi looked at the shining star, didn't ask any more questions, and just nodded, saying, "Junior sister, don't worry, I will keep them in check."
After saying that, he said, "Junior sister, you have stayed in this outer heaven for nine years. Senior brother Wanfa has always said that he would wait for you to go down before he would hold the meridian opening ceremony for Wu Hao."
"Why don't you go back and take care of this matter first? These past few years, my sister and I have had to take turns watching over Dongxu, which has been greatly affecting the construction progress of our Tongtian Path."
Ji Rong pointed to the wide adobe road ahead and laughed, "There's no rush in the next few days."
"Senior brother, after we parted ways with Yuanjun, I was afraid you wouldn't know about the changes here and might mistakenly enter her illusions, so I didn't properly examine these fortifications. Now that you've come up, please tell me about them."
Qing Yangzi nodded, then transformed into a half-beast and wandered along the rough road, saying, "Junior sister, please follow me."
