The empty space in front of Building 720 was covered with snow and ashes of corpses, making it difficult to distinguish them.
Jing Jiu's blue sportswear and the red cloth wrapped around Xue Gie were very eye-catching in such an environment.
The world occupied by the Sea of Dark Matter would gradually lose all its colors, leaving only the shades of black, until it became a part of the ocean devoid of life energy. In a sense, color was the symbol of life, and it was what the ultimate will of the Sea of Dark Matter disliked the most.
At this moment, color suddenly appeared in this gray and black world. The monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter couldn't see, so they had to use another method to sense the existence of life. As such, they could still see the blue streak and the red dot and sense the prowess of the energy.
Just as Jing Jiu walked out of the unit.
The thousands of Dai Xu and Half-tails that had already reached the outskirts of a certain city suddenly stopped, raising a lot of smoke and dust on the ground.
The beast horde that was traversing through the mountains and killing without stopping also stopped.
Suddenly, all the monsters stopped in their tracks.
The banging sounds outside the alloy door of the underground base also disappeared.
The people looked at each other in fear and subconsciously kept quiet, even holding their breaths.
Creaking sounds could be heard from one of the buildings.
The entire planet was dead silent.
Even the nine black suns in the sky stopped, as if they were sensing, observing, judging, and being vigilant of something.
…
…
In the deep end of a barren planet in a distant galaxy, the central computer of the Federation of the Milky Way was calculating at the highest speed.
The green data dropped down like a waterfall, resembling the monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter gushing out from the cracks in the space.
It didn't take long before the green waterfall of data came to a stop. The accuracy was over 99.9%.
…
…
On the viewing platform outside the atmosphere of the main planet, the trees by the cliff looked particularly tall and straight in the windless environment all year round.
Zhao Layue sat under the tree, her legs resting on the edge of the cliff. Her posture was also very straight.
Ah Da lay at the very front of the branch, staring at the grassland in the northern hemisphere of the home planet with squinted eyes. Who knew what he was thinking.
Zhao Layue had been looking there for many days. She suddenly said, "Get ready."
Ah Da's pupils constricted. He thought, "How did they find it so quickly?" Wouldn't that mean that a war was about to break out? Can't you let me play for a few more days?
…
…
Someone who was worthy of being stared at by Zhao Layue and Lord White Ghost for such a long time could not be a human.
In the depths of the prairie in the northern hemisphere, there was a cover formed by a huge gravitational field. There was snow flowing on the surface, like willow catkins, very beautiful.
There were steep mountains in the cover. There was a lake in the mountains. There was fog on the other side of the lake. There was a reconstructed city in the fog. There was a hot spring on the other side of the bridge.
The young woman in the bathrobe, who represented the will of the central computer of the Federation of the Milky Way, sat by the edge of the hot spring with her feet immersed in it.
She could clearly feel the scalding hot spring, which reminded her of Shen Qingshan and Shen Yunmai.
Her body was that of a cyborg, and her eyes were many times brighter than an ordinary human's. She looked like a cat, but there seemed to be countless stars hidden in her eyes.
The bright light that shot out like threads suddenly turned green and broke into countless fragments. It was a data language that humans could not understand.
Green data fell from her eyes like a waterfall, falling into the hot mist on the surface of the hot spring and disappearing without a trace.
The next moment, the data became real.
The data collected by the monitoring network on the Full Moon Planet through satellites, chips, and drones came into her consciousness directly.
What she saw was clearer and more vivid than what the people on the Scorching-Sun Battleship could see.
"Ah … I've finally found you."
The young woman sighed softly. It was unclear whether she felt satisfied or regretful.
The scene she was watching was in front of the 720 building.
A youth in a blue tracksuit walked out of the door of the unit and arrived in the midst of the snow and the ashes of the corpses.
A young woman followed him with a doll in her arms, which was wrapped in a piece of red cloth.
The young woman waved her hand. A wooden plate drifted over from the hot spring through the fog. There was a ceramic cup on the wooden plate, which was filled with strong liquor.
This cup of strong liquor was prepared by her a few days ago to celebrate her victory. However, Jing Jiu did not wake up or die.
The alcohol and the taste of the cup had evaporated after so many days, but she didn't care about it.
The taste of the cup was calculated anyway, so it was meaningless.
She picked up the cup with her slender fingers and said softly while looking at the doll wrapped in the red cloth, "It's been a long time."
Then, she looked at the youth in a blue tracksuit and said with a complicated emotion, "I didn't expect you to be on this planet."
The planet called the Full Moon was of great significance to her, though she had only come to that planet once in her long life of hundreds of thousands of years.
The gods were born on that planet.
No, to be more precise, God grew up on that planet. There were many habitable planets in the Federation of the Milky Way and countless planets where Jing Jiu could live and hide; but why did he show up on that planet? Could it be that the successor mentioned by the gods in their last words was really him?
…
…
The images on the Moongaze-Gazing Planet were transmitted to thousands of battleships outside the Sun Fire Industrial Base, to the Stargate Base and the light screens in many space zones, to the two distant and important planets, and to the Scorching-Sun Battleship at the fastest speed through a large number of satellites outside the atmosphere.
Everybody on the battleship stared at the scene on the light screen with a grave expression on their faces.
They saw the tide of monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter sweeping to all parts of the planet and the nine high-level mother hives drifting away slowly. In the next moment, they saw the ordinary residential building and countless monsters being cut into pieces and burned to ashes, and they heard the piano music.
A moment after the piano music vanished, the fire flags in the sky dropped down.
Squeak!!! The iron door of the residential building was pushed open.
Everybody wanted to know who would come out from the building.
When they saw the youth in a blue tracksuit and the little girl behind him, they were even more shocked, wondering what was going on.
Ceng Ju knew that the youth in blue was Jing Jiu, but he didn't say anything. He fixed his gaze on the little girl and recognized that she was Hua Xi. Where was the Snow Girl then?
A few doubtful reports broke out on the battleship.
"The monsters outside Base 6767 have stopped."
"The monsters that have entered the capital of Hexi State have stopped as well."
"The observation is ongoing. We don't know why they have stopped."
In the living quarters, the middle-aged researcher in the gray-checkered shirt came to the table and sat down while holding a cup of jasmine tea in his hand, wondering what other reason it could be.
Looking at the youth in blue on the light screen, a warm smile showed in the deep end of his eyes as he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Though his countenance looked calm, his hands were actually trembling slightly.
In the next moment, many surprised screams broke out on the Scorching-Sun Battleship.
"They have all moved!"
"The monsters in Hexi State have suddenly turned back."
"The monsters in front of the base are retreating as well!"
"All the monsters are retreating!"
"It seems that the nine big guys are going back as well."
"The result of calculation is out. Their target is that residential building!"
…
…
As soon as Jing Jiu walked out of the door of the unit, all the monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter on the Full Moon Planet had stopped moving.
In the next moment, they left their original positions and headed toward the residential building in the north of Foggy City at the highest speed, as if they had gone mad.
Fearless of death couldn't describe their craziness.
These monsters were in a state of death to begin with, so they were not afraid of death.
Yet, this craziness hid a sort of fear.
Yet, they were not even afraid of death; what were they afraid of?
…
…
A flock of birds appeared in the sky like black smoke.
The ground quaked again, as if thousands of soldiers and horses were approaching.
Jing Jiu didn't pay any attention to the commotion. He led Hua Xi toward the outside of the building area according to the Snow Girl's instruction.
It didn't take long for them to encounter the monsters before they could walk past the hollow iron gate of No. 715 Building.
The black hairless monkey-like precursors and the oddly-shaped half-tails were almost as fast as lightning and couldn't even leave a trace with the naked eye. The remaining snow splashed up in the fields, spreading over the abandoned farms and the nearby garbage heaps like the tide, in an attempt to drown the blue color.
Jing Jiu let go of Hua Xi's small hand.
Hua Xi hastily grabbed the corner of Jing Jiu's cloth with her small hand that had been frozen red.
Jing Jiu reached out his right hand and pointed at the monsters approaching like the tide.
Crack! Crack! Crack!! Countless cutting sounds rang out. Those grayish-black monsters were sliced into pieces and then frozen into ice cubes by the extreme cold.
The blackened birds in the sky were not spared either. They fell down after being turned into ice cubes, making cracking sounds when they hit the ground, sounding like hailstones.
Many invisible Blood Thumbs approached them silently, but they were also frozen by the unimaginably low temperature and fell down like snowflakes.
The grayish-black world gradually turned white.
Jing Jiu walked out of the iron gate with Hua Xi and followed the road into the distance.
The world became colder and colder. It had long surpassed the lowest temperature recorded in the meteorological records.
The ponds on both sides of the road were frozen to the bottom.
The fields became frozen soil. Some insects that were lucky enough to survive were frozen into ice cubes. No one knew if they could survive after the ice melted.
The monster birds and Blood Thumbs that appeared from time to time were frozen into snowflakes and fell from the sky.
It didn't take long before they arrived at the basketball court that used to be filled with laughter.
There were two walls in the basketball court.
One of the walls was full of scratches left by hoverboards.
The other wall was slightly shorter. Jing Jiu used to sit on it and play the harmonica.
Today, when he walked to the basketball court, a black sun rose on the other side of the short wall.
Then, a few similar horrifying spheres appeared.
Nine black suns hung in the sky in Silence, shining on him and Hua Xi, the only life on the surface of this planet.
This was the nest of the highest level. It was more varied than the ordinary nest, but it was still the same. It was just that it was ugly in contrast to the beauty of life.
Those irregular spheres seemed to be wrapped in rotten leather. Some parts of the surface were arched, and some parts were sunken.
Jing Jiu thought it was really ugly.
Hua Xi said with disgust, "It looks like a frozen persimmon."
In the wind and snow, a young monk came.
The young monk stepped on a round metal plate and glided on the snow. He was very fast and arrived at the basketball court in a few seconds.
His monk's robe was torn and hung down to his waist. He tied a knot casually, revealing his thin and wounded upper body.
Those wounds seemed to be painted with gold paint. The lines were complicated and had a vague image.
Hua Xi looked at him with her eyes wide open and said, "You look like a dancer."
…
…
The nine Virgins in the sky exuded a cold and terrible aura to the ground.
Any life that came into contact with this aura would go mad or become dormant.
Jing Jiu's awareness was suppressed to the lowest speed, but he was not affected.
Hua Xi was fine because she was holding the Snow Girl in her arms.
The Happy Monk had drifted in the Sea of Dark Matter for many days, suppressed the crack in the space for one night, and fought with a Virgins in the dark. He was severely wounded and exhausted. As soon as he arrived at the basketball court, he couldn't hold on any longer and fell sitting on the snowy ground.
It was unclear if he was influenced by the Virgins in the dark, but he stared at Hua Xi with a pale face and bewildered expression.
Cold Cicada landed noiselessly on the self-expanding basket of the basketball court. Seeing this scene, he wondered if this monk was crazy.
What the Happy Monk was looking at was not Hua Xi, but the Snow Girl in her arms.
Nobody in the Cultivation circle of Chaotian had seen the true appearance of the Queen of the Snowy Kingdom for many years, even though she was the sharpest sword hanging over the heads of the human race.
Cao Yuan and Zen Master had fought with her, but they hadn't seen her in person.
It was only when he drifted in the icy sea that he saw her standing by the edge of the icy cliff.
He couldn't understand why the Emperor was not in the Sea of Dark Matter, but on this regular planet.
Even though he saw her with his own eyes, he still couldn't figure it out.
It was not the time to catch up and ask questions.
The nine black suns were still hanging in the sky.
Countless monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter swarmed over from all over the planet in an attempt to kill them.
The brief tranquility at the moment was merely the interval before the next violent tide.
On the satellite screen, more than a dozen black tides were like a dozen flying swords, pointing at Fog City. Among them, the fastest black tide had already followed the track of the maglev train and arrived at the hub station northwest of Fog City. It was still more than 20 kilometers away from the basketball court.
Pah!!! A Dai Xu landed on the platform, leaving a few puffs of ash behind. No emotion could be detected in his white eyes; all he did was stare straight ahead. Without taking any rest, he leaped onto a shed a dozen meters high, ready to move on.
As soon as his feet landed on the shed, a thin line pierced over from a place he had been looking at. It was so fast that the piercing action was more like shooting, or in other words, appearing suddenly.
The dark clouds in the sky had turned into ice and snow due to the cold weather. It was a clear and spacious area with excellent sunlight.
It was because of the excellent sunlight that the thin line could be vaguely seen.
The Dai Xu was hovering in midair.
In the next moment, his body broke into countless pieces, collapsing soundlessly.
A few more Dai Xu appeared after him, standing stiffly on the same spots. They were pierced through by the invisible line and then cut in half.
The scene in the train station was eerie.
… …
… …
On the basketball court twenty kilometers away.
Jing Jiu raised his right hand and pointed at the distant train station incessantly.
Every time he pointed, a thin metal line would come out from his fingertip.
Every time he pointed, a thin metal line would come out from his fingertip.
He aimed very seriously, with a look of concentration and curiosity, like a child shooting a gun in a stall.
