Chapter 1145: The Sword Disciple of the Blazing Sun Who Wields Order
The world of the blazing sun, brilliant and radiant, gradually drew inward.
All things in heaven and earth shrank; yet in this process, there was no upheaval, everything remained perfectly stable, not even a single branch was broken, shrinking continuously, shrinking continuously.
Finally, everything collapsed into a single singularity.
The brilliant light of the world gradually faded, vaguely forming a spherical chaotic object, frozen within a smooth brow.
The chaotic object vanished and disappeared, revealing the figure of a youth in blue robes.
This youth in blue robes was around sixteen years old, with long hair reaching his waist, a delicate and youthful face, a black-sheathed long sword at his waist, his expression dazed and confused as if just waking from a long sleep; it took a long while before clarity gradually returned, and light appeared in his eyes.
"One thousand one hundred years?"
"It has been one thousand one hundred years... already?"
Jiang Ding felt somewhat uncertain, feeling as though he had stayed up all night in an internet cafe and slept until the next morning; it did not feel excessively long, ending with just one blink of an eye and one opening.
"Sword Disciple."
"It is indeed one thousand one hundred years."
Yue's kind voice came through, interjecting: "It seems your sleep quality was quite good; you appear full of energy, with no common adverse consequences of unstable slumber such as splitting headaches, multiple hidden injuries throughout the body, or localized decay of the organism. This is excellent!"
"It must be the protection of the ancestral masters of past generations!"
"That is not necessarily true."
"Yue."
Jiang Ding's mind was somewhat confused, yet he instinctively refuted: "Judging by Zou Zou Xiyuan's character, the ancestral masters of past generations have always believed that only the one who survives is their descendant; those who die are mere passersby, too lazy even to glance at them, and would never specially instruct or protect anything."
"..."
Yue was speechless.
But it did seem to make some sense.
"Sword Disciple, how was your harvest?"
Yue changed the subject, asking: "If your power of Order has still not been born, here is an opportunity; some alien races are longing for you to grant them death, to obtain such supreme glory..."
"They are truly shameless, with no kinship or connection whatsoever."
Jiang Ding pouted, sinking his divine sense into the flickering electromagnetic pattern mark on his brow, carefully contemplating it.
In the state of the brow, the nascent form of the Sword Realm operated extremely slowly, causing the efficiency of transforming chaos from the void to become equally slow, only one-tenth of the efficiency in the expanded state.
The state of the 'Immortal Dao Perpetual Motion Machine' within the world's operation was therefore intermittent, sometimes requiring the consumption of the heaven and earth's spiritual qi within the world.
After the Sword Realm operated for a period, a trace of blue-gold Order power accumulated at the sun in the sky, which was the location of the Supreme Clarity Flying Swords, emitting a heavy, chaotic aura, transcending all things in heaven and earth, being a certain primordial essence condensed from the world.
"My
power of Order..."
Jiang Ding's gaze, filled with appreciation, carefully looked at that faint thread of brand-new power.
He could feel that this was the starting point of the Great Dao, the staircase; the path to True Immortality would begin here, and from now on, this would be his path.
Whether it be brilliance or death, it would be without regret or resentment.
Jiang Ding placed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.
— Do not ask where the hilt came from; a great Sword Disciple of the Blazing Sun, a quasi-Emperor, if he needs a sword, a sword will appear, regardless of whether the sword originally existed or not.
The sword was drawn and struck down.
Clang!
A brilliant, scorching sword light appeared in heaven and earth!
She illuminated everything; all things in the world were bathed in light, losing all other colors, leaving only endless brilliance.
This sword strike,
had no target, simply striking down towards the sky.
Space tore silently beneath the sword, clouds parted silently; though terrible shattering was occurring, it was silent; this was because the sword was too sharp, to the point that space itself could not feel that it had been torn.
Thump, thump-thump!
Behind the shattered space, something entirely new, something never touched before, appeared!
It was a net of Heavenly Dao rules governing the cosmic starry sky, the laws of cosmic operation: the starry sky, meteors, living beings, grass and trees, rivers, mountains... everything in the universe was not chaotic but distinct; this was because individual Heavenly Dao rules were acting within it.
An unknown quantity of rules gathered together, forming the Cosmic Heavenly Dao Net!
In the past, no matter how Jiang Ding fought, tearing space, tearing the earth, this thing had never appeared; it was not that they did not exist, but that they were omnipresent, just as a mortal's sword, no matter how sharp, could not tear open the air.
And now, after the birth of the power of Order, the rule net of the cosmic starry sky had also unfolded a corner of its mysterious veil before him!
However, the current Order power of the Blazing Sun Sword Dao was still very weak compared to the rules within the cosmic starry sky; it could only touch them, like touching a rope, producing some sounds of plucking a string, unable to affect anything.
"Not very good."
"The application of the Blazing Sun Sword Dao's power of Order is somewhat crude."
Jiang Ding struck with one sword, feeling no great pride, but rather a sense of awkwardness.
It was like a person holding a blade sharpened from a crystal wafer and using it to cut tofu; while it could indeed be used without hindrance, the true function of the crystal wafer was not brought into play.
Such a crude method was an insult to a sword cultivator whose sword art was on the verge of the Fifth Realm of the Sword Dao.
The Blazing Sun Sword Dao's Order has its own methods of application.
For Jiang Ding, this was not difficult to achieve; in the past, he had annihilated the Thunder Division's heavenly soldiers and generals of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder True Sect of the Upper Realm, and had
repelled that withered flesh and blood formed by the Void Refining clone; these enemies all possessed the power of Order.
Especially the battle with that withered flesh and blood had benefited him greatly.
This veteran of Void Refining applied the power of Order with peerless mastery and extreme ruthlessness, forcibly using less than one-tenth of the Blood Dao's power of Order to resist him who commanded the Da Ri Ding Gao Jie Array, and nearly defeated him.
Now, truly mastering the power of Order, with the power of Order born from Jiang Ding's own Sword Realm becoming freely usable, numerous inspirations erupted explosively in his heart, quickly forming a vague, nascent form of a sword art, almost taking shape as a concrete sword technique, a sword technique applying the power of Order.
These inspirations were not mere chance encounters.
For many sword cultivators, they would be opportunities spanning ten thousand ages; for a sword cultivator whose foundation was terrifyingly deep, they were merely habitual thought.
"Your power of Order!"
"The power of Order at the peak of Nascent Soul!"
Upon seeing that sword strike, Yue's eyes sparkled brightly.
This is the strongest Great Sun Sword Disciple in the sect's history!
The Great Sun Sword Disciple of two generations ago, Chong Chong Guang Zi, once achieved the peak; after slaying the Dao Disciples of the Jiudaxian Sect, he birthed the power of Order, but it was extremely hasty. Before he could master it, he was crushed and killed by the Void Refining experts of the Jiudaxian Sect, unable to display the glory of a Sword Disciple; his timing was unfortunate.
Yet this generation's Great Sun Sword Disciple,
is without a doubt the strongest Great Sun Sword Disciple of all generations!
Whether in strength, foundation, or the power of Order, he surpasses all previous Great Sun Sword Disciples in every aspect.
Each generation's Great Sun Sword Disciple is stronger than the last; this undoubtedly clearly proves that the Great Sun Sword Dao is walking the glorious and brilliant correct path.
