Time flies, and nine years pass in the blink of an eye.
During these years, Zhao Sheng remains in closed-door cultivation on the surface of the Great Sun.
One day, nine years later, the previously stable gravitational field suddenly bees abnormal, with gravitational fluctuations being unprecedentedly active, as if influenced by some unknown force.
Zhao Sheng perceives the abnormal changes in the gravitational field and is instantly startled out of his meditation.
He looks up towards the Outer Heaven Void, his eyes shining brilliantly, instantly shooting out two substantial beams of Divine Light.
The Divine Light enters the void, and the originally invisible and intangible gravitational waves immediately bee visible, clearly reflected in his "Spiritual Vision".
The factor causing the gravitational wave anomalies seems to e from beyond this star system, far beyond his sensory limits.
Just as Zhao Sheng feels astonished, a vast, long mooing sound echoes from the distant outer layer of the star system.
The sound transmits through the intangible gravitational waves, resonating within his mind, causing a great shock to his spirit.
Zhao Sheng abruptly looks up towards the outer star system, where vast depths of darkness lie, seemingly as silent and serene as usual.
They... have returned!
As this thought flashes by, Zhao Sheng rises swiftly, then takes a step forward, instantly merging into the void and disappearing without a trace.
...
More than ten breaths later, a slender figure suddenly appears out of thin air above the meteor belt in the outer layer of the star system.
Zhao Sheng suppresses his aura to the extreme, his Divine Thought silently and soundlessly expanding.
Perceiving the increasingly active and chaotic gravitational fluctuations, he seems to see ripple circles in the calm space amidst the vast darkness, rippling out, affecting billions of miles of void.
Soon, a shocking scene unfolds!
Zhao Sheng sees with his own eyes that billions of miles away, at some point in the void, an unimaginable force suddenly tears it apart.
A massive "space rift" appears, stretching over tens of millions of miles.
Immediately afterward, a massive meteor, parable to a planet, squeezes out from behind the "space rift" bit by bit, finally succeeding in reaching the outer layer of this star system.
After it emerges, one gigantic, strange-shaped meteor after another flies out of the space rift, successively stopping behind the largest meteor.
The entire process lasts three days and nights, with the number of meteors exceeding three hundred, precisely three hundred and seventeen.
The largest has a diameter of over ten million miles, others generally exceed a million miles, and even the smallest one is above ten thousand miles.
The large and small meteors gather into groups, occupying billions of miles of surrounding void.
After three days, Zhao Sheng has already detected the anomaly in this group of meteors.
Seemingly ordinary meteor groups, in reality, each radiates dazzling brilliance. This is the light of life, blooming due to extreme surging life force, which cannot be perceived by anyone below the Returning to Void stage.
A day later, the meteor group suddenly moves. As the largest meteor first flies towards the inner layer of the star system, other meteors follow behind it.
The meteor group gradually forms a shape like an arrowhead, with the largest meteors on the outermost, and as they get closer to the center, the diameter of the meteors bees smaller.
The brilliance of life emitted by the meteor group gradually merges into one, until fully integrating into a larger life force field.
With the group flying faster and faster, within less than half a day, their speed reaches one percent of the speed of light, then stabilizes.
Due to the sudden incursion of the meteor group, the gravitational field of this star system begins to bee more plex and chaotic.
A once-in-ten-thousand-years gravitational tide officially begins.
...
Splash, splash!
The waves continuously crash against the rocks, each time higher than the last.
Within just one day, the waves have already crossed the rocks, fiercely hitting the straight, steep cliffs.
At this moment, Lu Haichao and Gu Hong hover above Gaoya City, both with very solemn expressions.
Seeing the increasingly high waves, Lu Haichao feels unsettled and suddenly says in a deep voice, "The catastrophe is approaching, where will we go?"
Gu Hong’s face appears somewhat pale, her voice slightly trembling, "Under the great disaster, we are all ants. Instead of resisting, it’s better to first preserve the sect.
The palace has just decreed that all disciples of the Four Seas Palace move into the Other Shore Divine Ship. Once it’s confirmed the catastrophe truly arrives, the Other Shore Divine Ship will immediately dive into the Ten Thousand Feet Sea Abyss to evade the disaster."
Lu Haichao looks towards the residents of the city below, sighing with passion, "Alas, the beings are so innocent! After this apocalypse, who knows how many could survive."
Seeing this, Gu Hong can’t help but sneer, "Haha, the palace cannot stand your hypocritical sort. If you truly pity the beings, why not offer up the Tribulation Treasure Ship?"
Lu Haichao sighs, "Alas, my sect’s ten thousand disciples have painstakingly refined only one Tribulation Treasure Ship over a hundred years. Despite being the Supreme Sect Leader, what right do I have to offer it up?"
Gu Hong purses her lips, refraining from saying anything harsher.
After a moment of contemplation, she suddenly speaks, "According to the predecessors’ records. From the start of the astronomical tide until the appearance of the Black Sun Halo Phenomenon, there is approximately half a year’s time.
Half a year should be enough. The palace decides to activate the Other Shore Divine Ship early, to search for young children and young people with outstanding Spirit Root qualification across various island groups, to accumulate more Primordial Qi for the Human Clan."
"This proposal is excellent! I shall also emulate Mr. Gu’s approach."
At this point, Lu Haichao shifts the topic, inquiring, "How is the situation over there at Heavenly Will Square?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Hong’s face shows some discouragement, "No matter how much the palace persuades, those people still remain unmoved. Let’s just consider them nonexistent."
