Chapter 2121: More Star Domains Appear

"The path of the Son of the Dragon of Fortune must surely give this sovereign much to reference."

"This sovereign can hardly wait any longer…"

Jiang Ding gazed at the starry sky and murmured to himself.

The countless stars of this immortal Dao universe were not fixed stars, but worlds one by one — Minor Thousand Worlds, Zhong Senior Qian Shi Gao Jie, and Great Thousand Worlds. As the distance lengthened, the radiance of the Minor Thousand Worlds and Zhong Senior Qian Shi Gao Jie would vanish and become hard to observe; only the radiance of the Great Thousand Worlds could travel here and be known to living beings.

The transmission of the Great Thousand Worlds' radiance was not in a straight line, but twisted by changes in rules, space, and the universe — exceedingly complex.

True Immortal Sons continuously corrected their own Great Dao Original Ancient Records through such observation of the myriad heavens' stars.

And… searched for new star domains.

At this moment, with part of the Son of the Dragon of Fortune's Original Ancient Records data being copied and seized, Jiang Ding's Immortal Dao Universe Constant Empirical Formula was completed, becoming more precise and faster in response; in a single thought he could mobilize more rules and the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, and the trajectories of countless past stars were deciphered in an instant.

Around the Sword Immortal Son, myriad Daos collapsed, the Fusang divine tree snapped, the Golden Crows shrieked mournfully — all manner of strange phenomena manifested here.

This was falling into Dao comprehension.

This was not strange; Dao comprehension was as instinctive as breathing for a True Immortal Son, and one could enter it at any time — it could not be counted as any great opportunity.

The trajectories of the myriad heavens' countless stars appeared one by one in his black-and-white pupils; star-movement data from the past thirty-plus million years swept past, and endless star-domain changes' cultural and geographical information surfaced in the Sword Immortal Son's Sea of Consciousness.

This was the tremendous advantage of the hegemon races of the endless starry sky — they naturally possessed vast amounts of universe Heavenly Dao data.

Gradually, the trajectories of some nearby star domains were calculated and slowly became clear.

"There…"

"That direction…"

Jiang Ding looked toward a region of the starry sky, stood with his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "In that direction, there exist multiple star domain clusters."

His tone was not a guess, but a statement.

Certainly, multiple star domain clusters existed there; everything was revealed within the calculations of Jiang Ding's Immortal Dao Universe Constant Empirical Formula.

Immortal Dao mathematics did not deceive.

So long as the scope was narrowed and calculations performed step by step, the precise coordinates of the multiple star domain clusters could surely be locked down.

This was the change brought by the Son of the Dragon of Fortune.

It shortened Jiang Ding's calculation time by at least tens of thousands of years — it could be called a great opportunity.

The only question was whether the data of Jiang Ding's Immortal Dao Universe Constant Empirical Formula could bring the Son of the Dragon of Fortune the same progress and change.

"You must be so."

"You must achieve tremendous progress on my Original Ancient Records data — best that it surpasses my own progress."

"Otherwise, I will beat you to death."

Jiang Ding thought lightly.

Having completed a stage's objective of Heavenly Dao deduction and calculation, he cast his gaze toward the Tianma Star Domain, toward the Blood-Ransom Sword Battlefields of the many sword cultivators.

Hundreds of billions of arenas had already vanished.

This meant an equal number of lives had perished — dying in sword combat, as if their entire clans had been wiped out.

Roughly two hundred million-plus human sword cultivators had died in battle, a casualty rate of around thirty percent.

Over fifty thousand Supreme Solar Sword Cultivators had died in battle, a casualty rate of around fifty percent.

Many Sword Dao Supreme Sovereigns had not died on the battlefield, but died here — cold corpses and shattered flying swords falling to the earth.

The casualty numbers were too horrifying!

The casualties far exceeded those of the war; far too many Sword Sons and Sword Dao prodigies had died in battle, their corpses as common along the roadside as grass and trees.

It could even be said,

The more prodigious one was, the higher the casualty rate!

"These fellow Daoists' hearts in seeking the Dao are truly steadfast."

"Worthy of the Sword Dao!"

Jiang Ding's expression grew slightly solemn.

He was unwilling to slight these sword cultivators — these current subordinates, and these future opponents who might very well slay him.

The average strength of the human sword cultivators was clearly greater than that of the Tianma Immortal Clan, Tianyun Divine Court, and other powers.

These advantages stemmed from the unification of the seven great star domains, including Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou, and from higher productivity and superior Immortal Dao technology—a comprehensive overwhelming dominance across organization, technology, productivity, education, and every other aspect; there was simply no way not to be powerful.

Theoretically, such horrifying casualties should not have appeared.

Yet in reality, it was perfectly natural.

No matter how great the advantage, it could not stop these sword cultivators from seeking death.

They were too confident, too arrogant.

Once they stepped onto the battlefield, they were certain they would surely win and complete their Sword Dao breakthrough; no one had forced them — they were as confident in every battle with the Sword Immortal Son as the Sword Immortal Son was, with no difference at all.

Yet in the end, there was a difference.

The Sword Immortal Son won.

The Sword Immortal Son was confident, and the Sword Immortal Son was not wrong.

They lost, and died.

Therefore, these sword cultivators were arrogant, ignorant, and had misjudged themselves and their opponents — and thus paid the price of death.

Sword cultivators determined the future solely by victory and the result of life and death!

Jiang Ding's gaze lingered only briefly on the corpses of the defeated sword cultivators before settling on the many victorious sword cultivators.

Standing atop the many fresh-red corpses, bathed in the evening glow, the many victorious sword cultivators blazed with fighting spirit, radiant and resplendent as the rising sun — impossible to look away from.

Among these victorious sword cultivators were Seven Kill Sword Sovereign, Desolate Flame Sword Sovereign, Burial Heaven Sword Sovereign, Void Kill Sword Sovereign…

The most eye-catching among them was Seven Kill Sword Sovereign.

He had cultivated for tens of thousands of years longer than the other sword cultivators, and now, in the sword battle, completed the breakthrough to an Eighth Tribulation Sword Cultivator; alone with one sword, he slew four great foreign-race Eighth Tribulation Supreme Sovereigns — Tianma Zhong, Suanni Demon Sovereign, Tianyun Divine Sovereign, and others all perished beneath the Seven Kill Sword, making that blood-colored Seven Kill Sword all the more terrifying.

This sword seemed as if it would thrust straight into the heavens, tearing through ten thousand Daos!

This generation's Seven Killings Divine Court's Sword Sovereign was clearly far stronger than the previous generation's Seven Killings Sword Master. He had been born and raised during the Sword Immortal's reign, received sword Dao education far superior to his own master's, and faced opponents of the same caliber, completing advancements the previous Seven Killings Sword Master had never achieved.

Yet he could not call himself the Seven Killings Sword Master; he was only the Seven Killings Sword Sovereign.

Because Sword Master was the title of this generation's human Sword Immortal.

"Grow up."

"I hope that one day you will challenge this sovereign to a sword duel…"

Jiang Ding Zi murmured.

His goal was to become an immortal, not to be invincible for a lifetime and become an emperor or ancestor. The strength of his opponents could not make him feel uneasy; instead, he saw them as one step after another on a staircase.

Beneath the many arenas stained red with fresh blood, numerous alien races were dazed and lost.

Among them was the Heavenly Horse clan's prodigy, Heavenly Horse Star. He had successfully defeated nine sword cultivators of the same rank and survived; of his entire clan, only he and a handful of Heavenly Horses remained alive.

The Suanni Immortal Clan, Heavenly Cloud Divine Court, and others were the same.

They would continue to exist, and might even give birth to Supreme beings, because their paths were useful for research, and the Sword Immortal would not allow their paths to be exterminated.

Even if they bore no blood feud with the human race and made contributions to the research of the Supreme Solar Sword Dao, the possibility of further advancement existed as well; achieving the Dao was above all else.

The Blood Atonement Sword Duel gradually drew to a close.

Numerous human cultivators began to sweep out in all directions, scouring every world of the four great star domains including the Heavenly Horse domain. The war was over; what followed was the time for construction.

The Heavenly Horse Star Domain and other domains would be incorporated into the Supreme Solar Sword Dao system, continuously providing talents, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and the like.

At the same time, the measurement of the Immortal Dao universal constants for the Heavenly Horse and other star domains could also begin.

Jiang Ding stood up and walked into the distance.
