Within the Million Starlight Palace, at the heart of this Sourcecore Sanctuary, stood a magnificent circular hall composed of 18 fan-shaped sections.

It was enveloped in divine light and adorned with radiant beads, transcendent yet solemn.

This was the Samsara Hall!

The Million Starlight Palace housed over 100,000,000 cultivators and was bustling with activity. However, near the Samsara Hall, silence prevailed. Even the distant clamor failed to penetrate this area, any noise completely isolated.

Clearly, the real dignitaries preferred tranquility.

Led by 18 beams of divine light, a blush-white radiance pierced into the Samsara Hall, causing a slight tremor.

This blush-white light was none other than Si Ji, the Snow Lineage Diva!

Her entrance into the Samsara Hall was anything but meek, clearly stating her stance. She was here for an appointment, not to show submission.

"Please."

After entering the hall, a corridor ahead was filled with white, blue, and crimson mists, mingling together to create a chilling, eerie atmosphere.

Except for Zu Xinchen from the Heavenly Deity Stellar River, all other representatives, including the Corpse Cloud Emperor from the Heavenly Demon Stellar River, proceeded first.

Zu Xinchen alone guided Si Ji.

In terms of age and experience, Zu Xinchen was senior to Si Ji. He represented the next generation of Boundless Immortals from the Ancestral Land. However, he was somewhat puzzled yet overall respectful towards Si Ji, maintaining a courteous demeanor as he led the way.

The two remained silent, passing through the deep corridor. Ahead, a door appeared, leading to what seemed like a cage-like chamber.

"This is the Boundless Chamber of the Samsara Hall," said Zu Xinchen as he pointed to the chamber ahead.

Si Ji had heard of the Boundless Chamber, a space reserved for Boundless Immortals. Without one in residence, even an Empyrean Emperor might not qualify to enter.

"Hmm." Si Ji stepped inside to find the Boundless Chamber modest in size, with simple and rustic decor, and a wooden seat at the center. It lacked grandeur but embodied a return to the origin.

Across from the seating area in the Boundless Chamber, Si Ji noticed a wall that was surprisingly transparent, revealing the mist-shrouded exterior interspersed with numerous chambers. These were Boundless Chambers as well.

"The so-called Samsara Hall," Si Ji thought to herself, "is simply a collection of these Boundless Chambers encircling each other…"

She sat quietly in this legendary place, scanning the visible chambers. Some were occupied, others vacant. The presence of anyone in these chambers guaranteed the presence of a Boundless Immortal.

There weren't many Boundless Immortals stirred by the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects, especially those from other Stellar Rivers.

But Si Ji still sensed other presences!

Zu Xinchen also entered, standing to the side as Si Ji's contemporary, awaiting instructions.

Si Ji understood that if someone had invited her here, there was definitely a matter to address.

"Is the Dragon Ancestor here?" Si Ji asked Zu Xinchen.

"He left," Zu Xin Chen replied succinctly.

"Hmm." Si Ji knew that the occupants of the surrounding Boundless Chambers were observing her! This was her first public appearance as a Boundless Immortal, and curiosity about her was high. She decided not to speak first.

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

Sure enough, someone took the initiative to speak.

Si Ji looked up and saw through the mist an open Boundless Chamber where a man in black armor sat. He sat upright, his eyes pitch black without a hint of white, appearing about Zu Xinchen's age but with a more substantial and dignified demeanor.

From his appearance and demeanor, this man in black armor did not evoke hostility in Si Ji.

She knew not all members of the Samsara Galaxy Federation were foes. So, her expression remained calm, not prickly.

"I'm Fushen Mutian." After introducing himself with a slight nod, the man in black armor concluded his introduction.

"I have long heard of the illustrious Left Emperor of the Divine Subduer Stellar River Dynasty," Si Ji responded, recognizing him. Figures like the Left Emperor, who became Boundless Immortals at a young age, were certainly familiar to her.

Indeed, the name of the Left Emperor was renowned.

Not far from the Heavenly Deity Stellar River was the Divine Subduer Stellar River!

Unlike the Heavenly Deity Stellar River, the Divine Subduer Stellar River had always been ruled by the Fushen imperial family.

The Fushen family established the Divine Subduer Stellar River Dynasty, commanding all the worlds along the entire Stellar River. They truly epitomized a dynasty spanning thousands of generations, unifying the Stellar River.

In the Divine Subduer Stellar River, there were no individual celestial sects; all cultivators were governed by the dynasty. Ordinary sized Celestial Sourcecores were managed as towns, those ten times larger as counties, a hundred times larger as cities, and a thousand times larger as major cities or the capital.

In contrast, the Heavenly Deity Stellar River contained countless sects, with even a single Celestial Sourcecore possibly hosting dozens of celestial sects!

A simple comparison revealed the vast difference in combat power between a fragmented Stellar River and a unified dynastic Stellar River.

Fortunately, there was no conflict between the Heavenly Deity Stellar River and Divine Subduer Stellar River, and it was said that the Ancestral Land had a good relationship with the Divine Subduer Stellar River.

Because of this, Fushen Mutian, the Left Emperor, was very polite to Si Ji.

In the Divine Subduer Stellar River, the supreme ruler was naturally the Great Emperor Divine Subduer, and the Left Emperor was his younger brother, second in power only to him!

His stature and power lent him a profound imperial dignity. Yet, the Left Emperor’s authority was subtly restrained and harmonious, revealing his depth.

The more such a man was observed, the more one was drawn in and subdued by his presence.

If Si Ji had met him a few days earlier, she might have been nervous... But now, she felt equal, able to meet his gaze confidently.

The Left Emperor and Si Ji had just spoken, acknowledging each other.

But what irked Si Ji was that from start to finish, no one came forward to explain the violation of the rules of the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects by the Southern Divine Dragon Realm.

It seemed as if this issue was simply being ignored!

It appeared that the main reason she was invited here was to make an appearance, for all parties to assess her.

In fact, this situation demonstrated that the Samsara Galaxy Federation was not a unified front; there were various thoughts and motivations, with most people and powers observing.

The Fushen family’s greeting was essentially an olive branch.

Besides the Left Emperor, the other Boundless Chambers were either unoccupied or their occupants hidden deep within the celestial mist, only their eyes visible, scrutinizing Si Ji, the new challenger.

"How annoying." Si Ji detested such manipulative, scheming environments.

Having made her appearance, she was ready to leave.

Just then, another Boundless Chamber floated into view, approaching closer to Si Ji.

She immediately recognized everyone inside the chamber—there were four in total.

On the left stood a person with a pale, emaciated appearance—it was the Corpse Cloud Emperor who had guided her earlier.

On the right stood a towering figure from the Dragon Devil Clan, dressed in a violet dragon robe, with long eyebrows and a handsome face filled with fierce authority.

This was the Violet Dragon Emperor of the Southern Divine Dragon Realm!

When Si Ji had slain the Golden Dragon Emperor and Blood Dragon Emperor, the Violet Dragon Emperor had been right behind them. If not for the re-emergence of the spiritual yin energy within Si Ji, he too would have met his end.

His appearance in the same chamber as the Corpse Cloud Emperor spoke volumes.

The Dragon Ancestor had departed, but his people had not.

The Violet Dragon Emperor, one of the culprits behind violating the rules of the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects, was still flaunting his presence, effectively challenging Si Ji.

His confidence was undoubtedly backed by the Boundless Immortal seated between him and the Corpse Cloud Emperor.

When Si Ji's gaze fell on the Boundless Immortal, her pupils constricted slightly, her look turning cold and serpentine.

The figure was an old man.

He appeared very aged, on the brink of death, with sparse hair, missing teeth, and his face and neck marked by bluish age spots. His eyes were a dark blue, adding to his chilling appearance.

But startlingly, his lower half was not human!

From the waist down, his body spread out into numerous blue tentacles, resembling those of an octopus or squid, with some bearing suction cups like bottomless pits, while others were armed with barbs.

This being looked similar to the legendary serpent women of the Harmony Divine Palace. Yet, it was fundamentally different.

The serpent women were human, even purely human.

But this old man with a tentacled lower body was not human; he was a demon.

The tentacles indicated he might be a sea demon, but that was misleading. The suction cups on his tentacles brimmed with a terrifying power of deathly resentment.

He was, in fact, a resentment demon.
