The Path Toward Heaven

When the Lieyang battleship disappeared into the universe, the crater on the planet had turned to the side facing away from the star.

There is no light at the bottom of the crater, so it is extremely cold, and the temperature at this time is unimaginably low.

The old man with a gloomy expression slowly opened his eyes, looking at the dark universe above, deep puzzlement and shock appeared in his gray eyes.

Earlier, he felt an extremely powerful and sharp divine sense, which contained a very clear warning.

He couldn't understand how the other party discovered him, and even more couldn't understand why the other party's sword intent was so powerful that he had the idea of ​​being invincible when the other party had just soared.

...

...

That planet is actually far away from the Lieyang, and even the imaging system on the battleship cannot take a clear image.

Jing Jiu was able to see the crater for another reason.

His eyes didn't stay on that crater for longer, because there were more important issues to deal with, such as getting answers from Huaxi.

Huaxi felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by him, and asked, Do you want some tea?

Jing Jiu said, There is no iron pot.

Huaxi curled her lips and said, You don't even know how much they love you.

It's interesting to say that when Zhong Lizi and Ran Handong were packing their luggage, they really stuffed the iron pot into their backpacks, no wonder the little girl struggled to carry it.

The iron pot was placed on the electric plate, and clear water was poured into it, waiting to be boiled, and a few green tea leaves were quietly placed on the porcelain plate.

Jing Jiu looked at her quietly.

Huaxi is the lady of the family of the star gate base, a distant relative of the main star Hua family, she is a very talented girl, and her talent is also very good in the whole human society. When participating in the star gate priest selection, she was liked by many people on TV because she was innocent and cute, with a kind of clumsy energy. This little girl is indeed an excellent choice if you go to the playground to play or make a bed with you, but Jing Jiu is going to the Sea of ​​Dark Things this time, and there may be many risks on the journey, why take her with you?

The sound of water in the iron pot gradually increased, and the room became quieter.

Huaxi asked in a low voice: How do you know there are people there?

Jing Jiu said: That man's realm is very high, and he has a murderous intent. I can feel his killing intent.

Huaxi was a little puzzled, and said: The killing intent is only seen in novels, is it real? Is it a kind of information wave or a stream of particles?

Jing Jiu said: I tend to be the observer effect.

Huaxi curled her lips, and said: The story of the macroscopic world is explained by quantum physics, it's all hooliganism.

Jing Jiu said, Then there is no explanation.

Huaxi raised her head, looked into his eyes and asked earnestly, Since you know he's there and has the intention to kill you, why didn't you kill him?

Whether it's the battleship and Chisong Zhenren, or the military headquarters building and Shen Yunbu, it all proves that Jing Jiu is a seemingly calm but extremely crazy person.

In order to ensure safety, when he feels danger, he will definitely counter-kill immediately, no matter who the opponent is or what the situation is at the time.

Jing Jiu said, You said that murder is against the law.

That extremely cold and hard killing intent clearly showed the identity of the strong man at the bottom of the crater.

It was already nine thousand years ago that the stone man in Chenwushan ascended to Taoism.

That person has a very high realm, his murderous intent is natural, and his Taoism is also very special, which is even stronger in the extremely cold universe.

But that man's head was also made of stone, and he was a bit clumsy and slow, making it difficult to threaten him.

He felt the other party's killing intent, and warned the other party not to follow because it was troublesome, and he didn't want to have an accident on the Lieyang battleship.

Of course, if Huaxi is willing to help him, he doesn't mind killing this person.

When Huaxi heard his answer, she felt so childish, so she curled her lips.

At this time, the water in the iron pot boiled, and she picked up the tea leaves and threw them into it.

The mist rises.

A few leaves fluctuated on the surface of the water, and the mist was occasionally blown away by the wind, revealing the corners of the eaves and stone statues, as well as a beautifully pruned low board.

Ran Donglou knelt on the futon opposite the hot spring, and said in a deep voice, General Li should be Jing Jiu's teacher, and we shouldn't have any expectations of him.

The breeze coming out of the mountain forest blew away more fog, gently brushing the floral bathrobe and neat black bangs.

The young priest raised the porcelain cup with two fingers, brought it to her lips, slowly drank the liquor in the cup, sighed happily, and said, He is a cocoon breaker after all.

Ran Donglou lowered his head and said, The cocoon breakers are indeed powerful, but if you... just ignore the rules, we can still try to kill them all.

The girl put down the porcelain wine glass in her hand, looked at the mist over the hot spring, her eyes were a little empty, and said, I didn't make the rules, how can I ignore them?

Ran Donglou lowered his head, lowered his voice, and said, The god...has been dead for many years.

The girl's eyes gradually narrowed, becoming extremely cold, and she said, He didn't set the rules, so what's the use of him dying? Step back.

Ran Donglou didn't dare to stay any longer, got up from the futon, bowed his body and slowly exited the courtyard.

The wind stopped blowing, and the hot mist of the hot spring gradually thickened, flowing everywhere like milk.

The girl looked at the sky, curled her lips, and said a little bored: It's so boring to guess so quickly.

...

...

For the next few days, Jing Jiu lay on the chair, watching the universe scenery outside the window, neither sleeping nor talking much.

He never mentioned illegal things like killing people and cloning people with Huaxi again.

One day, the ring on his finger shimmered.

His consciousness entered the star field network, came to the depths of the hidden network, and sat in the room inside the Ferris wheel.

Ran Handong sat on a chair and waited for him, passed some data to him, and said: There is no special movement among the thirty-seven targets monitored. The person in the space station of the Academy of Sciences left last night. The destination may be the same as yours. The other one is in your fleet.

Jing Jiu made a copy of the data and exited Starfield Network.

The Ascender who left from the space station of the Academy of Sciences should be Zeng Ju, the seventh generation master of Yi Mao Zhai.

His gaze fell on a very distant corner of the universe outside the window.

That battleship is like a small wooden pole in the vast universe.

I don't know who the Ascender hiding above is, probably not from the Zhongzhou faction.

With the way Patriarch and General Li behaved, the Ascenders who came out of Yunmeng Mountain would probably have been killed by them long ago.

The stone man from Chenwu Mountain was intimidated by him and did not follow him.

When he arrived at the Sea of ​​Dark Things, at most he would have to face the Ascender, Zeng Ju, Shen Yunbu, and General Li at the same time.

Suddenly, the small wooden pole in the distance burst into flames.

Immediately afterwards, the stars in the dark universe became much dimmer.

Tens of thousands of burning flying swords passed through the distant sky, which were tens of thousands of warships.

This is the largest and most powerful Star Core Fleet.

Many years ago, when he ascended for the first time, he had seen this spectacular scene from a distance.

Today he finally saw it again.

He stood up and walked to the window, quietly watching the battleships with a dignified expression.

Not fear, but respect.

After the ancient civilization fell, human society took two completely different paths according to the arrangement of that god.

If he represents the highest peak of Chaotian Continent, this magnificent fleet represents the highest peak of interstellar civilization.

Tens of thousands of warships combined can easily destroy dozens of planetary system associations and run rampant in this universe.

The foundation of human civilization has come to space from the surface of the planet.

With these battleships, you don't have to pay attention to what the big shots and officials of the Starship Alliance are thinking.

So the real leader of the Galaxy Alliance is General Lee.

Controlling this civilization are the Ascendants.

Do you think it's spectacular? Huaxi walked up to him and asked.

Jing Jiu hummed.

Huaxi smiled and said, Have you never seen it before?

Jing Jiu said, I've seen it.

Huaxi was a little surprised.

Jing Jiu said, You should have read that book, then you should understand what I mean.

Huaxi looked at him with wide eyes, and asked puzzledly: Sometimes I really don't understand what you are thinking, are you really here just to see more scenery?

Back then, I thought that what I saw were tens of thousands of flying swords burning on fire. Those swords could easily wipe out a civilization. Only now do I know that this is not true.

Jing Jiu was silent for a while, then continued: We have practiced Taoism for countless years, thinking about ascension, and now we realize that this is not true.

Huaxi said: Is there some kind of illusory feeling?

Jing Jiu said, It's true that it's false, but it's also interesting.

Huaxi asked: Do you like this world?

Jing Jiu said: There is a huge universe here, there are countless real stars, and there is a seemingly endless fairy energy, but... I still don't like it.

Huaxi thought for a while and said, Because there is no one you like? Do you still miss that world?

Jing Jiu said, No, because according to the current physical rules, this world also has an end.

The universe will eventually die.

Everything has an end.

So is existence.

A similar conversation actually happened, by the hot spring.

It was also because of this reason that Shen Yunbui cried bitterly by the hot spring when he was a child.

Suddenly, a sharp siren sounded from the Lieyang battleship.

Huaxi looked out the window.

Jing Jiu turned around and didn't know where he went.

It didn't take long for the siren to disappear and be replaced by the sound of a piano.

In the human society of the interstellar era, there are very few such ancient, gurgling piano sounds.

The officers and soldiers on the battleship came to the window and looked out following the sound of the piano.

In the dark universe, there is a guqin floating.

Shen Yun sat cross-legged behind the piano, plucking the strings lightly with his fingers, his white clothes reflected the distant stars, like a fairy.

There is no air in the universe, why does the sound of the piano come from?

The starlight moved for some unknown reason, and Jing Jiu appeared in front of the piano.

He was wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, like an ordinary boy, but he immediately took away all the brilliance of the other party.
