The science and technology of the Federation of the Milky Way had improved twice in the last few years. Though they were only achievements in application, they still had a great impact, especially on those cocoon breakers.
The super particles of the nuclear power furnace allowed them to travel through the universe relatively freely, and the appearance of plasma cannons made them less powerful.
The super micro nuclear power furnace was used for the first time when General Li subdued Jian Xilai.
The plasma cannon was used for the first time in the great battle in the galaxy beyond the Foggy World.
The bow of the Scorching-Sun Battleship was turned into nothingness by the plasma cannon. It seemed to be similar to what happened to the black battleship at the moment; but both Shen Yunmai and Tong Yan were certain that they were not the same thing.
There was no sign of a large number of super particles in the empty space up ahead, nor was there any energy fluctuation.
This was not the rumored defense system of the solar system, nor was it the space cut by the gravitational field.
The force that made the battleship disappear was similar to the net of the Fairy Nun, but it was many times more formidable.
The black battleship was gradually eroded by the invisible acid like an insect that had fallen into the net.
But, what was the material that made up the net? Why couldn't they sense it?
As they were thinking of these questions, they had already retreated to the space outside the battleship.
The black battleship kept on separating and disappearing in front of them, until it became a part of the empty space in the end.
More terrifyingly, it seemed that they were still on the same spot even though they were retreating rapidly.
Would they be cut into pieces like the battleship and then disappear?
Yuan Qu and Yushan held each other's hands tightly, a shocked and fearful expression showing on their faces.
Standing side by side, Tong Yan and Que Niang were calculating and calculating in silence.
Su Ziye remained reticent.
Shen Yunmai was swearing profanely.
Peng Lang stared at the empty space up ahead while stroking the hilt of his sword with a calm expression in his eyes. A sword light could be vaguely seen in the deep end, like the morning sun rising from the surface of the ocean.
"It's the sword wills hidden in heaven and earth. Come on up."
A mild and steady voice suddenly rang out in everyone's spiritual awareness.
The Dead Dog, who looked like a black mountain, had left the battleship a long time ago and floated up from below.
Tong Yan and the others landed on his body and sank into the hair that was as tall as weeds.
As their gazes passed through the hair and looked at the empty space, they finally saw something.
It was the infinite sword intent hidden in the space.
A cry of surprise suddenly came from the weeds.
It was because the Dead Dog was walking forward.
Nothing happened.
Its footsteps seemed to have landed on the stars, slow and steady.
Everyone was extremely nervous. Yu Shan covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound.
The black dog looked at the star in the distance, and its warm eyes were filled with an inexplicable sense of pride. Its speed did not increase, and its footsteps did not pause. It was as if it had seen a hidden path in the omnipresent sword intent.
Is that the path to the Ancestral Star?
At this time, they had already guessed what the sword intent that permeated the entire Solar System was.
Thus, there was silence.
…
…
It didn't take long for the tattered pirate ship to walk the same path as the black battleship.
Chen Ya was at the very front, reaching out to catch some dust in space. He had just recognized it to be the debris of that battleship when a clear crack appeared on his finger.
A golden light wrapped around his finger, preventing it from falling off.
The heavenly immortals turned into 13 streaks of light and retreated behind the pirate ship.
The tattered pirate ship was completely destroyed.
It turned into a circle in the universe and then disappeared without a trace.
Chen Ya gazed at the distant sun through the invisible sword wills, a worshipful expression showing on his face.
"This is the will of the Grandmaster."
The heavenly immortals were stunned speechless. The Daoist Immortals were deep in thought.
"Come with me."
Chen Ya turned into a stone man one hundred feet tall with a shake of his body.
The heavenly immortals landed on his shoulders, and En Sheng landed on his head, raising his mechanical hand and pointing forward.
Chen Ya sensed the distance and lifted his right foot slowly, taking a step forward.
…
…
A huge black dog was walking in the dark space.
A huge stone man was walking in the dark space.
It was unclear how long he had been walking.
The black dog suddenly disappeared.
The stone man had also disappeared.
…
…
The faint clouds were drifting in the sky.
The clouds were much colder and more sparse, with many dust particles mixed in them.
A huge black shadow tore through the clouds and appeared in the sky from a height of three hundred meters, then landed on the ground.
The ground quaked slightly, giving rise to a great deal of smoke and dust, which didn't settle down for a long time.
Tong Yan and the others flew down from the back of the Dead Dog, looking around cautiously.
This was a barren planet with an atmosphere and faint clouds, but no sign of water could be seen.
It was evident that the clouds had nothing to do with water vapor.
Looking at the sample on the light screen, Shen Yunmai said, "It's carbon dioxide. I know where it is."
The place where they landed was a high mountain.
The cliff was so high that they could see far away.
Looking at the strange planet, Yuan Qu and the others wondered in astonishment if this was the ancestral planet.
There was no green on the surface of this planet, and no sign of life could be found. It was a desert, with only sand dunes and pebbles.
A sandstorm could be vaguely seen in the distance, as well as the shadows of human buildings.
How did the ancestors of the human beings survive in such a harsh environment?
What had happened to the ancestral planet?
"This is not the ancestral planet," Tong Yan suddenly said.
Shen Yunmai said with a smile, "You people are so stupid. This is Mars."
Yuan Qu and the others were taken aback, wondering what kind of place Mars was.
Since it was a passage for the formation to transport them here, why did it bring them here?
They and the immortals on the pirate ship had been shooting at each other from a distance of several thousand kilometers, and then they encountered the sword wills in the void. The battleship was cracked, and they were carried by the Dead Dog through the vast space of the universe and then transported here. All of them were exhausted.
After making sure that there was no danger on the surface of the planet, they sat on the ground and started to meditate.
The Dead Dog walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the distant horizon. Peng Lang walked over and stood by his side.
It didn't take long before Tong Yan opened her eyes, and the others woke up as well.
Thinking of what Shen Yunmai had just said, Yuan Qu asked curiously, "Is Mars the name of this planet? It's simple and appropriate. "
The sand dunes and deserts on the surface of the planet reflected the sunlight from the horizon, giving off a feeling of being burned.
"Senior Master Zhao must like this place," said Yushan.
He was referring to Zhao Layue.
This mountain was very high, even higher than the Tianguang Peak in Aoyama. Standing at the edge of the cliff and looking down, an ordinary person would pass out immediately. Even though they were the immortals who had achieved some success in Cultivation, they still felt astonished.
"This mountain is the highest mountain in the solar system."
The huge robot walked slowly to the edge of the cliff and sat down, leaning against the body of the Dead Dog.
The Dead Dog turned around to take a look, saying nothing.
"You don't regard me as an outsider," Su Ziye said as he walked over.
The voice of Shen Yunmai rang out again, "We are all members of the Aoyama Sect, and you are the outsider."
All of them came to the edge of the cliff, looking at the distant horizon from an altitude of thirty thousand meters above the plain.
In the next moment, the sun drifted up from the horizon.
It was probably because of the atmospheric composition that the sun was light blue.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Qu and Yushan clicked their tongues in wonder, which made Shen Yunmai mock them for being a country bumpkin.
Que Niang sat at the edge of the cliff while holding the terminal, calculating something with her head lowered. "We can see it now," she suddenly said.
Having said that, she pointed her finger at a spot in the western sky.
The others followed her finger and saw another blue speck of light.
That blue speck of light was smaller than Que Niang's fingernail, hovering in the sky in Silence.
They were all the immortals, so they could see many scenes in the distance.
It was a tranquil planet.
The blue one should be the ocean.
The white one should be the clouds.
They could even see the land under the clouds and the continuous green on the land, which should be a forest or a grassland.
Looking at it from such a long distance, they could sense the freshness of nature on it.
The sandstorm in the distance had faded away, and the heaven and earth grew quieter.
Sitting on the high mountain and looking at the blue planet, they fell silent for a long time, feeling an indescribable thrill.
That should be the ancestral planet.
That blue planet was the cradle of the human civilization. The humans spent their childhood on it before they went to the sea of stars.
What they didn't know at the moment was that the humans had already taken two paths when they went to the sea of stars.
When the Sea of Dark Matter arrived, the gods had arranged two paths for them.
They were reborn in the dark universe.
They were accumulating energy in Chaotian.
No matter how far they went, they had to remember where they came from.
No matter how the times had changed and how the civilization had evolved, everything the humans had originated from there.
…
…
"I'd like to go there and have a look," Su Ziye suddenly said.
Yuan Qu held Yushan's hand and said softly, "I'll take you there."
Que Niang calculated the accurate data again and said, "The distance between the ancestral planet and Mars is only a few hundred million kilometers. If we don't worry about the fairy energy running out, we can arrive there in a few dozen days."
Su Ziye said, "The Young Master Shen should have that nuclear furnace in his spatial magic treasure."
"He does have it, but he won't take it out," said Shen Yunmai. "It's because nobody can leave this place."
Upon hearing this, everybody fell silent again.
Que Niang picked up a broken rock from the ground and flicked it toward the sky.
She had liked playing chess since she was little, and she was even more obsessed with it than Tong Yan. She liked playing chess pieces when she had nothing to do.
The chess pieces would make a sound when they hit anything.
The broken rock was thrown toward the sky, but it seemed to have hit something hard, giving off a crisp "pah" sound. Then, it shattered into powder and fluttered down.
It was like the battleship that had passed by Pluto.
The shapeless sword wills that could cut everything in the world could be found here.
The path toward heaven was like the blue sky, but it couldn't get out; it was because there was a cover in the sky.
Yushan suddenly pointed to a black speck outside the atmosphere and said, "There is a … satellite over there. Is it called a satellite?"
Why did that satellite still exist?
"It's already broken," Peng Lang explained after a pause, "It looks fine, but it's broken into pieces peacefully."
Que Niang calculated some more data and showed it to the others.
The sword wills had extended all the way from the distant Kuiper Belt to this place. Did it mean that the entire solar system was the same?
It was shocking.
"What the hell is this?" Su Ziye asked tersely.
Peng Lang said softly, "It's a sword formation."
Que Niang and Tong Yan eyed each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Shen Yunmai maneuvered the robot and stuck up his middle finger at the distant blue planet.
They had already guessed the truth, but Su Ziye, Yuan Qu, and Yushan hadn't thought of that possibility yet.
Peng Lang explained patiently, "This sword formation is unimaginably large; it has enveloped the entire solar system."
Su Ziye, Yuan Qu, and Yushan were shocked speechless. They looked at the outside of the atmosphere reflexively, trying to see the appearance of the sword formation.
What kind of sword formation could cover an entire galaxy?
Que Niang operated the terminal and fetched a great deal of data. Finally, she simulated a picture and displayed it in the sky in front of the cliff.
The picture was black, and the bright dot in the middle was the sun. Many planets were scattered around it, seemingly without any order.
"This is Mercury, this is Venus, and this is the ancestral planet."
Shen Yunmai pointed to those planets and explained to the others, "There are eight planets in total, and they are arranged into a formation."
What kind of formation were they arranged into?
Soon, the others saw the formation.
The seemingly irregular distribution of the planets actually had a vague shape.
The eight planets formed a cross in the vast universe, with a longer top and a shorter bottom, looking like a sword.
The sun was the bright pearl inlaid at the bottom of the hilt.
If it were a real sword, it would be the largest one since the birth of the universe.
It became deathly quiet by the cliff's edge again.
The sandstorm started again in the distance, covering the buildings built by human beings from an unknown period.
The satellite outside the atmosphere suddenly started to disintegrate, and a puff of powder drifted up. It looked like a tower made of sand that was washed away by the seawater.
After a long while, Tong Yan said, "I don't know how to describe what I've seen."
His voice was still calm, but he couldn't conceal the weariness in it, indicating his true feelings at the moment.
The grandmasters of Aoyama used the sun as the pivot of the formation and the planets as the foundation, and the arrays as the swords.
They used the gravitational force in the boundless space to generate the killing intent of heaven and earth.
It was indeed remarkable.
It was indescribably remarkable.
Peng Lang praised, "How magnificent it is!"
…
…
(It was said that yesterday was the day when the earth was farthest from the sun. Then, there seemed to be a line of stars, which happened to be updated to this scene. It was quite a coincidence. Though it wasn't spectacular, it was quite interesting. Have a nice weekend, everybody.)
