As soon as Jiang Nan landed on this vast planet fragment, he felt a faintly discernible divine aura. It was unknown how long the divine aura had been there for, but it didn't dissipate. Very few creatures could survive here.
However, creatures that could survive here were often extremely tyrannical. He inadvertently saw a pair of huge eyes suddenly appear in the sea, looking at him before sinking to the bottom of the sea. He didn't know what kind of creature it was, but judging from its aura, it was most likely a giant beast of the Divine Dwelling Realm.
"Starlight Era Calamity, 500 gods died here. The main planet was destroyed, and the survivors migrated. The main planet was rebuilt to welcome the Kōmu Era, and a monument was erected to commemorate …"
Jiang Nan couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the words on the monument. He saw that this monument was densely written with the names of gods, all of which were the gods who died in the so-called Starlight Era Calamity. There were a total of 500 of them!
"What calamity happened in ancient times? Why did so many gods die? Is the Starlight Era Calamity a great calamity that even gods can't avoid? "
The stone tablet was from a very long time ago, and it was unknown when Jiang Nan had built it. However, the Xuanming Primordial Realm was a small world among the Heavenly Worlds, and yet so many deities had perished. It should have happened at least a million years ago.
According to the legends, there were still gods and humans living together in the Xuanming Yuan Realm a million years ago, but there weren't many gods living in the mortal world at that time. It seemed that the era of the Starlight Era Calamity should have been even further back.
"The Kōmu Era, could it be the era we're in now? This monument says that the surviving gods reforged the main planet of the Xuanming Yuan Realm. Could it be that the planet we live on was refined by those gods? "
Jiang Nan was shocked. He pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. After all, the era of the Starlight Era Calamity was too long ago, and there were no words or legends passed down, so there was no way to verify it.
He traveled around this planet fragment and found many ruins, but the ruins here had been plundered by the experts and masters of the Xuanming Yuan Realm, so he didn't gain much.
On the other hand, he discovered quite a number of spirit springs. This place was desolate and uninhabited, and very few cultivators would travel hundreds of millions of miles to come here. Under the nourishment of the Earth Qi, spirit springs gradually grew, but the amount was not much.
This was originally the main planet of the Xuanming Primordial Realm. The main planet had been smashed into pieces, the earth qi was broken, and the spiritual qi was scarce. Even if there was a spiritual spring here, the amount wasn't as impressive as that of the main planet of the Primordial Realm.
He looked around but couldn't find anything worthy of his attention. He immediately rode the Condor Demon King and soared into the sky again, flying toward the sun.
Condor Demon King flew for another few hundred million miles, and Jiang Nan frowned. There were tens of thousands of continents in front of him. Obviously, these were the fragments of a shattered star!
He searched around and found a stone tablet on a broken planet fragment. It was written that this tablet was to commemorate the heroic souls that died in the Cold Moon Era Calamity, ushering in the Era of Starlight.
The survivors also mentioned the main planet of the Xuanming Primordial Realm.
Jiang Nan frowned even more. Before the Kōmu Era was the Starlight Era, and before the Starlight Era, there was the Cold Moon Era. Each era was a cycle. When it was at its most prosperous, it was suddenly destroyed by a great calamity!
He continued forward. Indeed, not long after, there was another broken planet fragment. It was the destruction caused by the Cold Era Calamity. Every few hundred million miles, there would always be a broken main planet of the Xuanming Primordial Realm appearing in space, representing the end of an era and the rise of another era.
One era, one calamity.
The calamity ended the previous era and ushered in the next.
At the end of each era, there were always many gods who didn't make it through and died in the calamity.
These traces of history were attracted by the magnetic force emitted by the sun and gradually flew toward the sun. Sooner or later, these broken main planet fragments would fall into the sun, be refined by the sun, and be annihilated in the dust of history.
The closer they got to the sun, the older the main planet fragments were. Obviously, they had happened from a long time ago. Jiang Nan counted along the way. There were a total of twenty-seven main planets that had been broken, and the ones that were swallowed into the sun were incalculable!
"From prehistory until now, there have been at least twenty-seven calamities. One calamity per era. What is this so-called calamity?"
After four or five months, they came to the edge of the sun. Jiang Nan felt the strong gravitational force of the sun, which made Condor Demon King stop millions of miles away. He could already feel the unparalleled heat of the sun here. He thought, "This era is called the Kōmu Era. When will the Kōmu Era Calamity come? How many people can survive this calamity? "
The Kōmu Era hadn't developed to its most prosperous period yet. There should be a long time before the calamity, so he could finally relax a little.
Otherwise, when the calamity came, even gods would die, let alone cultivators like them. Not to mention the ordinary mortals who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
When the main planet was destroyed, millions of souls died. Obviously, it wasn't just the Xuanming Primordial Realm that would have a calamity, but the other worlds would also have a calamity!
The Hades Underworld had 800 demon gods in its most prosperous period. But now, there was only one demon god, the Undead Hades King, who was killed by Jiang Nan and the other demons.
How did the 800 demon gods suddenly disappear without a trace?
Jiang Nan guessed that these demon gods had also fallen in the Starlight Era Calamity!
"How many times has this universe been destroyed and reincarnated?"
Condor Demon King flew such a long distance and consumed millions of liters of spiritual liquid. Without a strong financial strength, it was impossible to fly to the edge of the sun.
Fortunately, along the way, Jiang Nan found many spirit springs and collected a lot of spiritual liquid. Basically, he broke even.
The gravitational force near the sun was about a hundred times stronger than the main planet of the Primordial Realm. To mortals, this strong gravitational force was enough to suck all the blood in their body to the soles of their feet, causing them to explode to death. But to cultivators like Jiang Nan, his blood and Qi were incomparably vigorous, and his heart was as strong as a dragon's. There was no danger to his life at all.
The Sun True Fire on the surface of the sun wasn't absorbed, so it wasn't very hot. Its temperature was equivalent to the true fire refined by a Spirit Platform Realm cultivator.
The real danger was the explosion!
Huge bubbles appeared on the surface of the sun from time to time. Each bubble was almost millions of miles in size. The bubbles were formed by pure true fire, and they kept expanding outwards before exploding with a bang. The power was almost equivalent to an attack from a Heaven Palace Realm cultivator!
Apart from that, there were abnormally powerful solar prominences that rushed out from the inside of the sun. They turned into waves of fire that rose millions of miles, like the sun's tongue, licking outwards.
Many planet fragments were licked by the solar prominences and melted directly, as if they were eaten by the sun!
That was extremely terrifying!
Moreover, the shape of the solar prominences was extremely strange. Every solar prominence soared into the sky, and its shape was just like a three-legged golden crow. It spread its wings and soared, devouring all things.
When Jiang Nan was young, he had read many strange and mysterious ancient books. Some of them said that the sun was a three-legged golden crow. The person who wrote the ancient books was naturally a mortal. He reckoned that the ancient people had seen the solar prominences erupting from the sun, and that was why they made such an association.
In fact, there were many suns in the universe, numbering in the billions. However, there weren't many that could erupt solar prominences.
A sun that could erupt solar prominences usually meant that a real three-legged golden crow had once resided in it. Their vital essence was left in the sun, and it would erupt from time to time. That was why the solar prominences in the shape of a golden crow were formed.
The golden crow was a demon god, and on this sun of the main planet of the Primordial Realm, a demon god of the golden crow race must have once lived here. He might even have left behind his legacy on the main planet of the Primordial Realm, which was the Demon God Sect!
Now, the golden crow demon god was definitely long dead. If he didn't die of old age, then he died in the starlight era.
Bubbles and solar prominences were extremely dangerous, but other than that, the rays that erupted from inside the sun were also extremely powerful. Rays were light, and among the various divine arts that Jiang Nan knew of, there were many divine arts that were similar to these rays.
For example, the Shang Qing Divine Light that Condor Demon King once cultivated, the Corpse Transformation Divine Light of Sky Devil Castle, and the Five Elemental Annihilation Divine Light of Ancient God Pavilion were all similar divine arts.
However, the power of the rays that erupted from the sun was countless times stronger than the divine arts of these sects. Although they were scattered and didn't pose much of a threat to Jiang Nan, if he was slightly careless and encountered a concentrated eruption, Jiang Nan would be in grave danger!
"The sun's true fire is dense enough at this distance. Cultivating the Sun Sutra here will yield twice the results with half the effort!"
With a slight thought, the incarnation of the Sun God immediately flew out from between Jiang Nan's eyebrows. With a whoosh, it spread its wings, which spanned dozens of miles. The true fire reached the sky and wrapped around the incarnation of the Sun God, turning it into a huge fireball, as if there was a small sun beside the sun!
Millions of miles away, the surging sun's true fire and the essence energy of the three-legged golden crow that once lived in the center of the sun were drawn over by Jiang Nan's incarnation. They continuously rushed into the huge fireball, merging with the essence energy of his incarnation!
Boom!
The essence energy around Jiang Nan's incarnation suddenly exploded, becoming incomparably hot. The temperature was so high that it seemed like it could incinerate everything!
The cultivation of this incarnation immediately soared, rushing towards the profound foundation realm, shaking the profound entrances again and again!
In the past, when Jiang Nan cultivated this incarnation, he relied on his own spiritual energy to rush into the incarnation's body and forcefully break through the realm. But now, with the endless sun's true fire and the golden crow's essence energy, this incarnation no longer needed to rely on his own cultivation!
Not long after, the incarnation of the Sun God let out a fierce roar. The fireball suddenly expanded, expanding to the size of fifty to sixty miles. Dao pillars appeared one after another, a total of five. Impressively, the incarnation had cultivated the profound foundation realm!
All kinds of enlightenment surged into his mind. Jiang Nan's mind was still, using this rare opportunity to experience all kinds of mysteries of the profound foundation realm.
"Good! Cultivating the Sun Sutra here is definitely the supreme holy land! "
He flew up, turned into a long rainbow, and landed on a magma-like continent. He closed his eyes and concentrated, beginning to cultivate.
The cultivation of the incarnation of the Sun God had already surpassed him by two realms. This time, he brought enough spirit liquid, so he also needed to take this opportunity to improve his own cultivation.
And the Condor Demon King also cultivated the Sun Sutra, so he also took this opportunity to cultivate. He had the divine blood, and his talent was extraordinary, so his cultivation speed was not slower than Jiang Nan's incarnation of the Sun God. Soon, he also advanced a realm, formed a lotus platform, and sprinted towards a higher realm.
The Warbeast could not cultivate any cultivation techniques, but it could devour anything and everything. It even swallowed the True Sun Fire in large gulps, refining the energy within the True Sun Fire. Its strength and size were constantly growing, and it was like a magma beast!
"Eh? There is something in the center of this continent! "
While Jiang Nan was cultivating, his divine sense unconsciously spread out. Suddenly, he felt that there seemed to be something hidden under the continent that was surrounded by thick magma.
