Whether it is divine magic or fighting energy, in the end, both transform into powerful physical bodies. The physical body strengthens the divine power, so the "divine" system primarily focuses on strengthening the physical body and divine power, with divine arts as a secondary consideration.
Although magic users initially have fragile physical bodies, after ascending to the divine realm, their physical bodies are increasingly enhanced. This is a paradoxical cultivation system.
Fighting energy, on the other hand, is entirely focused on strengthening the physical body. Upon reaching the divine realm, one is naturally further empowered by divine energy that strengthens the body.
Sword cultivators and immortal cultivators, however, focus primarily on energy cultivation. Sword cultivators condense the "sword heart" and ultimately call themselves sword immortals. After reaching the divine realm, they continue to strengthen their sword heart, which gives them immense attack power, though their physical bodies remain fragile.
Immortal cultivators focus on cultivating the primordial infant and various immortal arts. Upon reaching the divine realm, they mainly give birth to the primordial soul, an upgraded version of the primordial infant. Their physical bodies are similarly fragile and, compared to magic and fighting energy, are weaker.
This leads to the phenomenon where sword cultivators also claim to be sword immortals. Though they are immortals, they consider themselves superior to ordinary immortals.
Thus, the divine realm ushered in the conflict between "gods" and "immortals," and the realm began to branch into multiple cultivation systems. It is no longer a single divine realm but one that houses multiple cultivation paths.
This situation gave Fang Yuan a strange illusion: could this be the arrival of a fantasy civilization? It seems that only a fantasy civilization would have such a variety of cultivation systems, unlike other civilizations with just one system.
Aboard the spaceship "Hope," the crew quickly noticed the changes in the ship. Some parts of the ship had visibly changed, with the material now feeling more substantial.
At the same time, the crew was stunned to find that the spaceship's speed seemed to have increased, and yet the ship showed no signs of strain. The interior of the ship seemed to have a very stable gravity, as if the ship was within Earth-like conditions, preventing weightlessness.
Although there had been a gravity system before, it was not this stable.
After some exploration, they discovered the ship's maximum speed had reached an astonishing ten times the speed of light. When the ship reached the speed of light, everything around it turned into light and shadow. Beyond the speed of light, everything around seemed to transform into beams of light.
The ship's hull even collided with photons in the starry sky, which, normally devoid of physical properties, actually struck the ship and caused friction, making the hull faintly glow.
Despite moving at such an incredible speed, the ship felt no burden, and its mass seemed to have increased many times.
Furthermore, the crew discovered that the communication tools on the ship had also experienced strange changes. They could now communicate with Earth in real-time, and the signal transmission speed seemed to have reached faster-than-light speeds.
Everyone was shocked and confused, unsure of what was happening.
...
In Washington, Earth, Wang Yuanyuan was walking down a busy street, her expression blank. She wasn't sure if she was doing the right thing, nor did she know if she would regret it later.
She still liked Fang Yuan, but every time she saw him, he felt distant, which made her feel uneasy.
Lost in thought, Wang Yuanyuan didn't notice the small pegasus following her from behind.
After undergoing transformation through Fang Yuan's enlightenment, the small pegasus seemed to have become more human-like. It noticed its master's mood was not good, so it silently followed her, occasionally spreading and folding its wings, like a bird.
"Hey, beautiful girl, looks like you're not in a good mood?"
Suddenly, two black men appeared in front of her with sinister smiles.
"Chinese girl, what's bothering you? Tell us, we'll help you out."
"Yeah, yeah, we'll definitely help you out..."
The two men shamelessly closed in.
Wang Yuanyuan immediately became alert, turning around to walk away, but the two men quickly ran ahead and blocked her path.
"Why are you running, girl? We don't want your money."
"Yeah, we don't want money. We just want you, hahaha..."
Wang Yuanyuan's face turned pale, filled with fear. She instinctively reached for her phone to call the police.
At that moment, the small pegasus noticed the situation and instinctively recalled Fang Yuan's words: "Go, protect your master. If she's wronged even a little, you'll be punished!"
The small pegasus shivered and instinctively spread its wing, creating a gust of wind.
As the wing passed, the space around it twisted. Realizing its power was too strong, the small pegasus hastily reduced the force, but the remaining power still created a violent whirlwind.
The two men, laughing and teasing Wang Yuanyuan, were suddenly swept into the air by an uncontrollable force, while Wang Yuanyuan was shielded by a protective force and remained grounded.
"Whoooosh..."
Not only that, but due to the small pegasus's overwhelming power, the whirlwind swept forward, uprooting buildings one after another, and hundreds of people were lifted into the air, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
"Oh my God..."
"My heavens..."
People nearby were frozen in place, shocked by the scene.
The small pegasus now realized it might have caused trouble. Nervously, it covered its eyes with one wing, then peeked out with one eye.
Wang Yuanyuan was also stunned, unable to react to the sudden turn of events.
"Typhoon's here, run!"
"Run!"
After a brief moment of silence, the street erupted into chaos. Everyone ran in panic, not knowing where to go.
Wang Yuanyuan finally reacted and instinctively ran along with the crowd.
"Shhhlrhh..." The small pegasus hastily called out as it chased after her.
"Little White? What are you doing here? Didn't I return you to Fang Yuan?" Wang Yuanyuan was puzzled, but then, people around her began running frantically toward her. Her expression changed slightly.
The small pegasus quickly flapped its wings, sending the people flying away. The area around Wang Yuanyuan cleared out completely.
Wang Yuanyuan's eyes widened in surprise.
"Shhhlrhh..."
The small pegasus was still nervous. It feared that the panicked people running might hurt its master, so it kept flapping its wings, sending anyone it could see flying, determined to protect its master from harm.
"Stop..." Wang Yuanyuan finally reacted and instinctively shouted, but it was too late. The small pegasus flapped its wings again, sending everyone within a hundred meters flying into the air, disappearing from view, unsure where they would land.
"Little White, you..." Wang Yuanyuan was left speechless in shock.
The small pegasus, still nervous, stayed close to Wang Yuanyuan. The fear instilled by Fang Yuan made it anxious to protect her at all costs.
Soon, everyone around began running away in fear, and police sirens could be heard approaching. Armed helicopters were flying toward them as well, likely in response to someone calling the police or the street's surveillance cameras picking up the scene.
Wang Yuanyuan, slightly clearing her mind, looked worried: "It's over, Little White, run..."
Although she still didn't understand exactly what had happened or how things got out of hand, she instinctively felt that the situation was dire.
Run?
The small pegasus was confused. Why should it run?
But since its master said so, it obeyed. A flash of white light enveloped it, and its body quickly grew, turning into a true pegasus three meters tall, with snow-white wings spreading eight meters wide.
At the same time, a soft wind lifted Wang Yuanyuan, placing her on the pegasus's back and protecting her with a wind barrier.
The next moment, with a powerful flap of its wings, the pegasus soared into the air, breaking through the clouds and disappearing into the horizon.
"Oh my God..."
"My God... Do you guys see this?"
American soldiers who had just arrived were left speechless, their jaws almost dropping in disbelief.
