Chapter 1125: Immortal Gate Enters a State of Full War Mobilization
Within the sun's radiance containing the Great Sun Annihilation Sword Intent, all things in heaven and earth grew vigorously.
Many grasslands had turned into forests; many places became deserts due to the sun's radiance being too concentrated, with sparse vegetation; in some areas, hundreds of rivers converged to form oceans, where many aquatic plants grew in the shallow seas... The four seasons began to become distinct, heaven and earth flowed, and circulated endlessly.
The quasi-Heavenly Dao will interfered little with the operation of heaven and earth.
Under the accumulation of time, within the cycle of the Immortal Dao system, something terrifying was being nurtured, growing continuously.
"It still needs... between six hundred and seven hundred years..."
That consciousness of the quasi-Heavenly Dao whispered, its voice echoing in the lonely heaven and earth.
No need for serendipity, no need for opportunities, no need to pursue a faint epiphany or spiritual light from the unknown.
Just wait for time to ferment step by step, and order will appear in heaven and earth.
This was the result jointly brought about by the Undying Sword Intent, sword techniques on the verge of the Sword Realm, and the Great Clarity Flying Swords at the level nearing the Refining Void space treasures.
"Oh?"
At this moment, the quasi-Heavenly Dao consciousness was slightly stunned.
Afterwards, his consciousness gradually retracted.
All things in heaven and earth, mountains, rivers, oceans, deserts, including plants adapting to the Great Sun Annihilation Sword Intent such as Sun Grass and Sun Thorny Pear Wood, began to contract, shrinking continuously, finally forming a singularity the size of the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows, and thus stopped all evolution.
A complete living being appeared in heaven and earth.
This living being's emotions were extremely irritable and angry, a classic case of waking-up grumpiness, and furthermore, a feeling of rage arose from being interrupted during the process of nurturing order.
However, these instinctive emotions appeared only slightly before immediately retracting.
"No one can transcend outside of things."
"Many predecessors of the Immortal Gate are sacrificing for the greater good; I should not be an exception..."
Jiang Ding whispered.
He walked out of the Great Sun's place of slumber.
Great Sun Heavenly Pool.
Amidst endless radiance, a youth in green robes, with a long sword at his waist, walked out with sleepy eyes, messy hair, and wrinkled clothes, stumbling a few steps at a time, looking exactly like a Gao Zhongsheng who had stayed up for seven days and seven nights addicted to the internet.
"Ding!"
"Beep beep beep..."
"Detected a Refining Void stage living being... Error... Detected a quasi-Refining Void stage living being... Error... $#****... Program error..."
In that instant, the star fortresses of Cang Hai Canghai Tianjun, Mie Ri Canghai Tianjun, and others sounded frantic alarms.
Buzz!
Countless array patterns spread out; immediately, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became turbulent, and the main cannons of countless star fortresses instantly completed charging, aiming at this place.
Clang!
The Great Sun Annihilation Sword Intent trembled slightly.
Jiang Ding shivered and woke up.
He instinctively placed his hand on the sword hilt.
Instantly!
Wild and scorching sword intent instantly covered the sky and earth, enveloping thousands of kilometers in all directions; the will of destruction that suppressed magic, banned magic, and caused mutations filled the four quarters, and an even more terrifying power was vaguely hidden, making Cang Hai Canghai Tianjun and others' hair stand on end, their souls trembling uncontrollably, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
The Great Sun Sword Cultivator was too close!
So close that they could not make any tactical evasion moves at all; they were no different from lambs awaiting slaughter!
"Stop!"
"Cease!"
"..."
Jiang Ding and Cang Hai Canghai Tianjun, Mie Ri Canghai Tianjun, and others roared simultaneously.
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
Everyone woke up from the fierce battle that was about to begin instantly; the atmosphere eased slightly, allowing people to breathe.
"Too sorry."
"It was our fault."
Cang Hai Canghai Tianjun spoke first, smiling bitterly: "Recently, for some reasons, we adjusted the star fortress ship spirits to be too sensitive."
"Additionally, a bug must have appeared."
"We have never encountered quasi-Refining Void stage living beings; the array spirits and ship spirit programs did not input such targets, causing confusion for a moment. We will modify it immediately, modify it immediately..."
Mie Ri Canghai Tianjun and others around also showed awkward expressions.
Normally it was not like this; even if the Immortal Gate warship combat programs had never encountered quasi-Refining Void stage living beings, the reaction should not have been so extreme. It was simply that the recent adjustments were too sensitive, for which some stability was even sacrificed.
"Me too, me too."
Jiang Ding felt somewhat embarrassed and scratched his head: "Just woke up, didn't pay much attention."
"Hahaha..."
Both sides laughed awkwardly.
The Canghai Tianjun around gradually recovered from that terror; many recalled Chong Chong Guang Zi from those years. Now, the strength of the green-robed youth before them was estimated to have already surpassed that of the latter.
What kind of Emperor's Son, Ancient Emperor's Son, in front of him, had little room for composure left.
The slight misunderstanding was quickly resolved.
"Jiang Ding."
"Official matters are important; put this on."
Mie Ri Canghai Tianjun walked over and handed Jiang Ding a set of star fleet general's formal uniform: "Specially customized for you; even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator can wear it. Let's talk as we walk."
"Alright, Senior."
Jiang Ding extended his divine sense over, performed a brief sacrificial refinement, and left his imprint on this magic treasure.
The Star Sky Fleet admiral's dress uniform flowed like water, spreading toward his body and draping over him, fitting perfectly at every point.
The surrounding Canghai Tianjun couldn't help but steal a glance.
A sixteen-year-old youth, with a youthful face and innocent, clear eyes, a full head shorter than those around him, yet wearing a perfectly fitted Star Sky Fleet admiral's dress uniform — he looked dashing and spirited, and also — a little like someone who'd gotten in through the back door, some family's youngster who'd stolen an elder's clothes and come out to wander about.
"Not bad,"
"Our Great Sun Sword Child is really handsome!"
Mie Ri Canghai Tianjun praised.
The many Immortal Gate Star Sky Fleet admirals gathered together, their auras instantly linking through military formations; the super sky mothership entered the Canghai Tianjun fleet's formation and became part of it.
They flew together toward the starry sky beyond the Immortal Gate.
Jiang Ding obediently stayed among the elders, spread out his divine sense, and once again looked over his homeland that he had been away from for over three hundred years.
At this one look, he instantly discovered an enormous difference.
Fleets.
Fleets everywhere.
Star Sky fortresses, sky motherships, sky battleships — sky battleships densely packed the entire Immortal Gate orbit, numbering in the hundreds of millions; countless chaotic military formation runes linked together, and also merged with the Immortal Gate's original foundational grand formation, emanating an extremely terrifying aura, nearly exceeding the scope of Refining Void.
It was no exaggeration to say that if a Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong great power appeared here alone, they would die in an extremely short time, unable to escape even with their divine soul, and no one could save them.
This was precisely the reason the Badaxian Sect great powers were wary of acting rashly.
An Immortal Gate fleet in its home lair and an Immortal Gate fleet in the distant starry sky were in two completely different states.
At this time, the entire Immortal Gate mother star had entered a state of full mobilization; apart from schools, all factories, institutions, and laboratories had been entirely converted to wartime status.
The air was filled with a cold, murderous atmosphere.
"Senior,"
Jiang Ding couldn't help but say, "Is all this really necessary?"
This kind of formation would be more than enough to surround and kill multiple Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong great powers; using it to guard against a newly-born Refining Void really felt like making a mountain out of a molehill.
