A swarm of heavy artillery bombarded the cultivators.

Chapter 1745 Returning to Hometown

A beam of primordial light of extinction travels through the starry sky between the black hole at the center of the Milky Way and the solar system.

This beam of light has superluminal speed!
In theory, it is impossible for anything to exceed the speed of light in the universe, because according to the special theory of relativity, when an object approaches superluminal speed, its mass is infinite and the energy required tends to infinity.

And at this moment, an object traveling faster than the speed of light really appeared!

It goes against common sense and cognition, but such superluminal existence actually appears in the vast starry sky of the Milky Way.

Is this a creation of a civilization above the third level?
No one knows, no one understands, and perhaps no civilization can observe it, because this beam of light does not spread in all directions, but only gathers at one point and approaches a fixed direction.

At superluminal speed, everything in the world slows down.

Jiang Ding soared in the universe, silently experiencing the scene at this moment.

Between heaven and earth, light, the movement of stars, the movement of galaxies, the movement of meteorite belts...all moving objects have become slow, extremely slow.

At this point, can we say that time has also slowed down?

Because time is something that is manifested through the movement of matter.

When everything moving in the universe slows down and there is no other time reference frame, does time also slow down?
Yes,

Time just slows down!
Jiang Ding was sure of this.

"I should be able to reach the solar system within a thousand years..."

Jiang Ding calculated silently.

In this way, this beam of light traveled through the universe for decades. At a certain moment, it suddenly burst into bright light, flickered continuously, and the light dropped rapidly, leaving the superluminal state and quickly decreasing to below the speed of light.

"not good!"

Jiang Ding's expression changed slightly.

At this moment, his soul was collapsing!
After enduring a period of superluminal travel, cracks began to appear in the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul and it could no longer exist. It dropped below the speed of light and became out of control. It shot crookedly towards a planet and, with its terrifying force, pierced through the unnamed planet!
The light faded away, the starry sky exploded, the ground cracked, magma exploded, and countless sparks appeared in the starry sky.

After a while, the nameless planet orbiting the star ceased to exist. Only groups of meteorites were left, scattered in all directions, captured by the gravity of many planets and stars, or flying away into the distance.

The beam of light was blocked by the planet and its out-of-control condition was reduced. It was like a headless fly running around in the starry sky of the universe. It took a long time for it to calm down and stay in the same place, with the light flickering.

"Damn it!"

"My four-step transformation is not fully completed!"

Jiang Ding's face turned pale.

The Sword Soul’s four steps of Nirvana were completed, yet not completed.

It was completed because the sword soul had undergone an essential change. The Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul had been born and possessed various abilities.

It was not completed because the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul had only transformed a little bit of its essence. The soul sheath and magic body that matched the sword soul, as well as the sword body of the Taiqing Flying Sword, did not appear at all. This prevented the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul from growing further, and even from fully displaying its power.

Once he fully exerts the power of the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul like he is doing now, he will immediately be injured by the sword soul itself and will be on the verge of collapse!

This is why the Dharma body is so important to monks.

A cultivator without a Dharma body is like a tree without roots; a flying sword without a sword body is just a flash of light for a moment, unable to fully display its power, let alone make any further progress.

"I need to construct a brand new Dharma body to allow the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul to complete its complete transformation!"

"Otherwise, the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul cannot use abilities other than its instincts..."

Jiang Ding whispered.

His eyes were bloodshot, and there was a hint of cold murderous intent.

How high are the requirements for the Dharma body and flying sword body that can carry the four-step transformation of the sword soul?
The body he had in the past was completely useless! Perhaps, only by cleansing the entire upper realm, killing all the immortals and saints of the quasi-immortal race, and fusing their life-defining magic weapons into one furnace, can a body that can fully carry the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul be constructed.

Otherwise, the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul will never be truly born and will always be just a fetus, unable to grow.

This is the minimum requirement.

You know, when Da Ri Jian Zi was at the limit of the third step, he needed the presence of hundreds of immortal sect Taoists on the battlefield to achieve a steady transformation. But now only eight are needed, and he will definitely be able to transform. The requirements have been reduced a lot.

Under the leadership of the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul, matter and energy can be used efficiently with almost no waste, and only in this way can the goal be achieved.

"It's best to complete the cleansing within the Hedao Stage."

"The glory of the upper world needs me to save it and bring peace to the human race and all the spirits in the world..."

Jiang Ding said to himself.

At this moment, he developed an inexplicable instinct.

That is, the True Fairy must be able to complete six qualitative changes in the Void Refining Stage. I have already embarked on the path of catching up with the True Fairy, and have walked out of the three-step limit and reached the fourth step. I am now qualified to look up at the True Fairy's back.

If I encounter a real fairy in the endless starry sky in the future, she will definitely not ignore me.

Either recruit him, kill him, or just give him a glance and leave, but he will definitely not be ignored, because a person with the fourth step limit has already transcended the ordinary immortal sect disciples and will become an important figure in the future overlord race of the endless starry sky.

Jiang Ding closed his eyes and regulated his breathing in the starry sky, repairing the damaged Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul.

Since there was no external spiritual energy to replenish, he proceeded very carefully. Any spilled spiritual matter was recovered again to form a new sword soul structure.

This beam of light just stayed in the dead starry sky.

Decades later.

Jiang Ding opened his eyes.

His Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul shrank again, becoming smaller than a grain of rice. This was through "self-eating" to heal the wound and restore the damaged sword soul.

"We must return to the solar system as soon as possible, back to the spiritual environment!"

Jiang Ding said solemnly.

If he is unable to return to the spiritual environment of the immortal way before the Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul completely collapses, he will most likely face death. The sword soul that has not completely transformed is too unstable and needs spiritual matter to replenish it in order to complete this final part of the transformation.

Keng~
The Taiqing Flying Sword hummed softly, and it and the Sword Master once again transformed into a ray of Taichu Destroying Light, reaching the speed of light. After a few moments, it broke through the superluminal speed and steadily advanced towards the solar system.

From time to time, this primordial light of destruction would stop to repair itself, and then set out on its journey again at superluminal speed decades later.

This cycle repeats itself over and over again, using natural time and space to travel.

Time passed little by little.

Unknowingly, more than a thousand years had passed. The Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul became increasingly transparent, and the light of the Primordial Destruction became increasingly dimmer, almost impossible to detect. It was about to fall into a desperate situation.

But at this moment, in the distance, a beautiful star system appeared in front of Jiang Ding. It was so familiar and exuded the breath of life.

"Ha ha!"

"Hometown, I'm back!"

Jiang Ding laughed, and the heavy stone in his heart fell to the ground.

The Great Sun Immortal Sword Soul summoned up its last bit of strength and transformed into a beam of light that flew faster than the speed of light. It passed through the vast universe and starry sky like lightning and flew into the solar system filled with spiritual energy!
