Chapter 1148 Annihilation as the Foundation, Life as the Guide, Reincarnation as the Bridge
Nirvana is the foundation.
Life is the guide.
Reincarnation is the bridge.
There is a wonderful and complex relationship among these three: they both restrict and promote each other; they are both independent and closely connected.
When this relationship is skillfully utilized and integrated, it can unleash an even more powerful and unparalleled force—the power of the Great Dao!
As time went by, Su Mingyi's understanding of these three great paths deepened, as if he had already grasped their essence.
At the same time, his own cultivation level also soared like a rocket.
In his mysterious and profound spiritual world, dazzling golden lights shone continuously.
The Golden Immortal realm, which had been stagnant, suddenly began to climb upwards at an astonishing speed, as if by magic.
From the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm to the late-stage, and then to the remarkable peak of the Golden Immortal realm, this seemingly unattainable goal is now within reach.
Those bottlenecks that once instilled fear in countless cultivators are as fragile and powerless as thin paper here, and can be easily torn apart.
However, this is only the beginning. What awaits Su Mingyi next is a higher level of cultivation—the realm of the Profound Immortal!
Early stage of Xuanxian, middle stage of Xuanxian, late stage of Xuanxian... all the way to the peak of Xuanxian, each step is so difficult, but also full of endless surprises and gains.
After each successful breakthrough, a continuous stream of the power of the Great Dao would surge into his mind, and be further condensed and purified.
At this moment, Su Mingyi's consciousness became increasingly powerful, as vast and boundless as the starry sky; his understanding of the laws governing the universe became increasingly profound and thorough, as if he could see through all its mysteries.
Finally, after a series of arduous efforts, his cultivation level steadily reached the peak of True Immortal!
The peak of True Immortal is only one step away from the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
Su Mingyi slowly opened his eyes and saw that the starry sky around him was still vast, the zodiacal light was still shining, and the green of the aura was still ethereal.
Nebulae and supernova remnants float silently in the distance. Supernova remnants are essentially a type of nebula, while nebulae are a broader category of shimmering gas and dust in the sky. They are the remnants of dead stars and the cradle of new star birth.
He witnessed the remnants of a dead star—a pulsar.
It is a special kind of celestial body, like a dense neutron star with a powerful magnetic field. They rotate at lightning speed—several to a hundred times per second—and eject matter like the beams of a lighthouse, sweeping across the endless void and producing regular pulses.
Those zombie stars, flickering faintly in the vast void, seemed to be whispering the secrets of their annihilation.
The pulsars in the Crab Nebula rotate 30 times per second, producing a brilliant glow at the center of the nebula's image. Within that glow lies a rich power of reincarnation, stirring Su Mingyi's mind like surging waves.
He turned his gaze to the center of the Milky Way, where the Milky Way's axis of rotation intersects with the galactic plane.
At the center of the galaxy, a bright sphere, resembling a dazzling pearl, is about 20,000 light-years in diameter and 10,000 light-years thick. This region is composed of high-density stars, mainly old red stars that have endured the vicissitudes of time and are over 10 billion years old.
Those red stars, like elderly people in their twilight years, though they have reached the end of their lives and are about to meet their demise, still emit their last rays of light, illuminating the core of the galaxy like burning flames.
The Milky Way is enveloped by a galactic halo with a diameter of about 30 kiloparsecs. The most dazzling members of the halo are globular clusters, which are like treasures of the universe, containing the purest primordial power. They are celestial bodies that were formed at the beginning of the universe.
Su Mingyi also saw the silver corona, which was the gas envelope surrounding the celestial body, like a dazzling hat that covered the star's shining "round face".
The word "冕" originally referred to a magnificent hat worn by ancient emperors. Since the hot gas in the sky also looks like a hat, people now call this gas a silver crown.
The corona of the sun is what people are familiar with, while the corona of a star is called a stellar corona.
Those silver crowns contain immense energy, like a surging torrent, and are a symbol of stellar life.
He saw that the surface of the Milky Way was tilted for no apparent reason, caused by ripples from disturbances in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds that surround the Milky Way.
It was caused by vibrations at certain frequencies as they passed through the edge of the Milky Way.
These two galaxies have a mass of about 2% of the Milky Way, which is considered insufficient to affect the Milky Way.
However, when dark matter is taken into account, the motion of these two galaxies is enough to affect the larger Milky Way.
The calculations after incorporating dark matter showed a 20-fold increase in its impact on the Milky Way; it is an invisible force that permeates the entire galaxy's cycle.
Stars, planets, giant stars, planetary nebulae, and the phantoms of variable stars scattered throughout the Milky Way form small, fragmented spiral arms and vortices. Along the direction of the Milky Way's rotation, they form a string of bright "beads," some red, some pink, some purple... extending into flat bands of light that stretch across the sky, majestic and extremely beautiful.
These spiral arms and vortices are like the rings of the universe, recording the birth and growth of the Milky Way, as well as the cycle of birth and death of countless planets.
Su Mingyi's consciousness slowly returned, and his soul detached from that star, reforming into human form.
He stood in the ethereal space, his robes fluttering in the wind, surrounded by three distinct forces of the Great Dao, like stars surrounding the moon.
The power of annihilation was cold and heavy, like millennia-old ice, radiating a bone-chilling cold.
The power of life is warm and active, just like the warm spring sun, brimming with vitality;
The power of reincarnation is profound and mysterious, like a black hole in the universe, containing endless mysteries.
The three elements intertwine, like a magnificent and colorful painting, forming a three-colored halo that tightly envelops him.
He could clearly feel that his cultivation was as stable as Mount Tai, and he had already stood at the peak of True Immortal. He was only one step away from stepping into the sacred hall of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
That step is like crossing a bottomless abyss, requiring the complete fusion of the three great paths of annihilation, life, and reincarnation in order to achieve the supreme path.
Su Mingyi stood tall and proud, gazing into the distance with a dazzling light in his eyes, like the brightest star in the night sky.
He knew that this experience in the illusory cycle of reincarnation was like a refreshing rain, from which he benefited greatly.
He not only broke through the bottleneck of his cultivation, but also comprehended the profound meaning of the three Great Daos, as if enlightened, and touched the clues to their fusion.
In this vast and boundless starry sky, he seemed to hear the heartbeat of the universe, a resonance between annihilation and life, a hymn to reincarnation, like a stirring symphony that shook his soul.
Just as he was deeply moved, his figure transformed into a ray of light and vanished into the illusion.
