This was the seventh time the Scorching-Sun Battleship passed through the warped black hole.
The time the ship spent passing through the holes was various, with the longest one about ninety minutes and the shortest one merely a moment.
When the battleship passed the warped black holes, it was covered completely in synthetic materials. The people inside the battleship couldn’t see anything in the passage, and all the observation systems lost their functions. In essence, traveling in space involved a technology that surpassed the level of the human civilization, and it was probably for this very reason that any observation by the humans was denied.
As far as Jing Jiu was concerned, it was quite unbearable to travel in space for so long.
Jing Jiu had been sitting on the chair after the battleship left the Stargate Base, looking at the sea of stars outside the window.


Though longing for longevity was an important reason for ascension, being able to see different types of scenery was also a significant factor.
There was no scenery to look at, and he didn’t wish to do any mathematics equation; so hen, what should he do at the moment?
Boredom was sometimes a catalyst to make him cease being lazy for a brief period. He walked out of the room at last.
Given the right of authority provided him by Ran Handong, Jing Jiu had completely seized control of the Scorching-Sun Battleship. He didn’t have to worry that the captain of the battleship might drive it into a permanent star, nor that some ominous thing might happen to him. As such, he could walk about in the battleship without being seen and recorded.
Jing Jiu went to the center of the battleship, which was the most closely guarded area of the ship.
It was a large storage cabin.
Thousands of metal balls hanging on the walls on both sides were locked with coded mechanical devices, and those metal balls exuded an energy he could clearly sense.
The energy was not strong, meaning that the radiation level was low, which wouldn’t cause any harm to the officers and soldiers on the battleship.
Jing Jiu summoned his will slightly, and the mechanical devices locking the metal balls were unlocked. The metal balls rose up slowly along with the rising platform, and along with a faint mechanical and electric noise.
Jing Jiu waved his hand, thousands of sword lights coming out from his fingers. They arrived on the metal balls and started cutting them.



What are you doing?
The apprehensive voice of Ran Handong rang out behind Jing Jiu.
Jing Jiu turned around and found she held a laser gun in her right hand.
Ran Handong approached him slowly with a cautious and nervous expression on her face.
Stop it immediately; otherwise…

It was until now that she still couldn’t understand why her aunt advised her to listen to Jing Jiu and why her father gave such a high right of authority to him.
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She had been paying attention to all the systems on the Scorching-Sun Battleship in secret.
She was a Cloud Ghost of highest level in the Federation. Needless to mention her knowledge of the battleships, what she had done was not even noticed by Jing Jiu.
She hadn’t discovered anything in the last few days. As she was to feel relaxed, she suddenly found that someone tried to enter the central area by means of the right of authority.
She had guessed it must be Jing Jiu’s doing. By the time she arrived, she witnessed such a horrific scene.
Jing Jiu looked at her quietly, saying nothing.
Looking at the metal balls on the platform and those faintly sparkling flames, Ran Handong felt increasingly nervous.
Do you know what you’re doing?
asked she hoarsely, feeling a bit weak in her knees at the moment.


Jing Jiu uttered
hmm
.

Don’t give me that freaking ‘hmm’,
yelled Ran Handong because she couldn’t restrain her emotion any longer.
These are the most powerful nuclear bombs; one of them can destroy an entire city!

The Scorching-Sun Battleship was equipped with thousands of nuclear bombs of the latest model. If all of them exploded…it was not a matter of who would survive rather than whether any piece of this battleship would remain.
Jing Jiu noticed that she was experiencing extreme distress. In order to avoid any unnecessary trouble, he summoned his will slightly and looked at her deeply.
As his gaze met Ran Handong’s, she suddenly felt the expression in his eyes was so amiable. She couldn’t control her body anymore and sat down on the floor after her knees gave in.
Before she lost control completely, Ran Handong said in a crying tone,
Don’t do anything you’ll regret!

Jing Jiu didn’t heed her. He retrieved the sword light and came before the nuclear bombs. After he was certain that those lines were precisely on the required spots, he nodded satisfactorily. Then, he used the right of authority to move the nuclear bombs back to their original places and locked them up.
He came before Ran Handong and hoisted her by grabbing her collar, heading toward the outside of the storage cabin.
Ran Handong attempted to get out of his grip, but in vain.
Jing Jiu said,
I don’t mind you seeing it; just don’t cause any trouble. Otherwise, I’ll kill you.



Ran Handong would like to know what was going on, murmuring,
What have you done to those nuclear bombs?


I’ve written some amulets on them,
replied Jing Jiu.

What’s that?
pressed Ran Handong, feeling even more perplexed.
Jing Jiu said,
Don’t ask if you don’t understand. Just let it be.

They would pass through many places to go to the bow of the battleship from the storage cabin of the central area. Many people had seen the scene in which Ran Handong was hoisted by Jing Jiu.
The captain, the main preacher and Hua Xi were all surprised to see it. Zong Lizi and Jiang Yuxia felt surprised and also jealous.
The Scorching-Sun Battleship had passed through the warped black hole and arrived in the central area of the Yinhai Nebula. The metal membrane and synthetic materials were lifted abruptly, letting the starlight stream in the rooms.
Ran Handong was dropped on the floor. Recalling the scene she witnessed earlier, she still felt exceedingly stressed.
Jing Jiu walked to the window and looked at the stars outside. After having a sip of water, he said,
I don’t want to kill you.

Hearing this, she had the dreadful feeling that he might indeed dare to kill her even though her father was an important figure in the Federation of the Milky Way.


The ring on Jing Jiu’s finger suddenly emitted a glow, looking similar to the starlight outside the window.
Ran Handong didn’t notice this.
Jing Jiu lowered his head to look at the ring in silence for a while, then raised his right hand.
Ran Handong understood his intent. She left the room in a hurry, not daring to stay one moment longer.
The sea of stars was marvelous to look at.
Standing before the window, Jing Jiu stared at the midst of the stars; in fact, his attention was on another scene.
He had installed a program on his ring back on the Stargate Base, which was responsible for searching for the news he was interested in.
The faint glow on the ring indicated that the program had found the news he wished to watch. It might have something to do with the ascendants.
A seemingly ordinary news appeared in his awareness.
A quake took place on the Planet Lindeng. According to the analysis, it was probably due to the miscalculation of the mining company when they used the crystal bomb to blast the mine.
The humans of the Federation of the Milky Way had many colonized and mining planets. Most of them hadn’t heard of this Planet Lindeng, so none of them would pay any attention to this news.
The program warning him about the news must have another logic.
Jing Jiu’s awareness entered the interplanetary network, looking for more information. Soon after, he found dozens of pictures taken during the incident and two videos.
He had learned a fact based on the broken ores scattering according to a certain mathematical rule, the noticeable bullet shells and the energy remaining in the wind.
Someone had employed the All in One Sword there.
Jian Xilai was the most likely candidate for the incident. A newly arrived ascendant would use such a simple and rude method to fight against the force of the Federation of the Milky Way.
The second piece of news was much more shocking.
The No. Three Froward Base, which had drawn a great deal of attention of the populace of the Federation, was invaded by the Sea of Dark matter; more than four thousand miners and supporting personnel in the residential area were killed by those monsters.
The Fourth Fleet was dispatched immediately and dropped ten nuclear bombs of high power. As a result, the passage through which the dark matter came was successfully sealed off at the expense of losing more than three thousand brave soldiers on a battleship.
Seeing the horrific bombing pits in the pictures and videos and the remaining pieces of the battleship in the space, Jing Jiu remained silent for a while.
It must be Cao Yuan who was brave enough to block the nuclear bombs and slice the battleship.
Something happened to Jian Xilai.
And Cao Yuan had a mishap as well.
Who would be the next?
It occurred to Jing Jiu that he had seemingly forgotten someone.
He remembered after a while that he had forgotten about the Immortal Tan.
In line with his usual action style, the Old Tan wouldn’t be found so easily by anyone.
As such, he would be the next.
Standing before the floor-to-ceiling window, Jing Jiu looked at the sea of stars outside the window quietly. A hint of expectancy came forth in his mind, which was rare after so many years.
