I created the Tianjiao Era.

Time passes day by day.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

For a whole year, Jiang Hao has been using his immortal spirit to sense the changes in this void at all times.

He was not in a hurry and was very patient.

According to Hei Zun, even though this void is the weakest point, now is the time when Chaos is extremely powerful, so it is not so easy for Hei Xu to erode into Chaos.

So have to wait.

Be patient.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Jiang Hao seemed to sense something strange.

In the void, there are faint ripples like water.

Circle after circle, ripples were stirred up.

However, the movement was very weak.

If Jiang Hao hadn't been paying attention all the time, he would not have been able to sense this change at all.

But now, he noticed this slight change.

At the source of the fluctuation, Jiang Hao’s immortal soul “saw” a wisp of black air that was indescribable. It seemed to be pure black, so black that it was impossible to see through.

To the soul's perception, it seemed as if there was nothing.

Nothingness, emptiness.

At this moment, Jiang Hao suddenly understood what "Black Ruins" was.

This is the power of Black Ruins!
Even if it was only a hint, it was enough for Jiang Hao to understand the concept of "Black Ruins" more intuitively.

“Fellow Daoist Jiang, quickly use your soul to refine this trace of Black Ruins Power. Chaos is so strong that even if the Black Ruins Power invades, it can only exist for a moment and will soon disappear completely. Then you will have to wait slowly again.”

Hei Zun reminded hurriedly.

In fact, there was no need for Hei Zun to remind him, Jiang Hao had already "swallowed" this trace of Black Ruins power in one gulp with his immortal soul.

As the power of Black Ruins entered the Immortal Soul.

Jiang Hao's immortal soul had a strange feeling.

He seemed to be in complete darkness.

There is no time, no space, no matter.

Everything is nothingness.

Even the meaning of one's own existence gradually disappears.

With just a trace of the power of Black Ruins, Jiang Hao fell into extreme danger.

Even if Jiang Hao has mastered the ninth level of Huaxu Refining and even increased the progress to 100%, he cannot stop the power of Heixu from "assimilating" Jiang Hao's immortal soul.

This process is actually called "transformation into emptiness".

How can one truly experience the horror of the Black Ruins without first “transforming into emptiness”?
If you don’t know the horror of “nothingness”, how can you know the meaning of “existence”?

Hei Zun looked at Jiang Hao silently.

He knew very well how dangerous this step was.

Especially for the first time, the mortality rate is as high as over 90%!
Therefore, in the Black Ruins, any life is extremely secretive about "transforming into nothingness" and turns pale at the mere mention of it.

However, the ninth level of Huaxu is to actively "transform into emptiness".

Jiang Hao must go through this process and get through it on his own.

Otherwise, Jiang Hao would be completely assimilated by the Black Ruins and turned into nothingness.

In fact, Jiang Hao is indeed in great pain now.

He couldn't sense anything.

I can't even sense my own soul.

There is no time, no space, no matter.

What is the Desolate Sky Tower?

What is Black Lord?

What chaos.

All gone.

He seemed to be "floating" in a huge dark space.

Maybe for billions of years or forever, he will continue to "float" like this.

Forever.

Such a future is despairing to think about.

But in a trance, Jiang Hao seemed to have some understanding.

Since there is nothing left.

So what is he?
He is still there!
"I am Jiang Hao..."

“My memory is still there.”

"I am still conscious."

"So, my existence itself is the greatest meaning..."

After all, Jiang Hao has completed the entry stage of the Nine Refinements of Transformation.

His immortal soul was extremely powerful. Moreover, he only refined a trace of the power of the Black Ruins, not his entire body being integrated into the Black Ruins.

If he completely integrated himself into the black ruins.

Then, no matter how powerful his soul is, it will probably turn into nothingness in an instant.

But there was only a trace of the power of Black Ruins, and it was only at the beginning. Jiang Hao had never experienced such a situation, so he was panicked and felt uneasy.

And now, Jiang Hao no longer needs to worry.

He understood his own significance.

Itself is "existence".

As long as one's consciousness remains and one can perceive "oneself", one will not be assimilated and will not turn into nothingness.

Therefore, Jiang Hao stuck to his original intention, constantly perceived himself, and maintained his consciousness.

There is nothing else to do but wait quietly.

As long as he maintains his self-awareness, that trace of Black Ruins power will naturally be refined over time.

However, this also takes time.

One year, three years, five years, ten years...

Jiang Hao cannot sense time.

But Hei Zun can sense time.

Time in the outside world is also constantly passing.

Hei Zun could sense Jiang Hao's situation.

In fact, Hei Zun was a little worried at the beginning.

But as time went by, Hei Zun was no longer worried.

Because Hei Zun could sense that Jiang Hao's original "virtualization" process suddenly stopped.

Then there was a long wait.

It was not until a few years ago that Jiang Hao's immortal soul began to slowly recover.

That's it!

It means that Jiang Hao has passed the most dangerous stage.

This time, the "transformation into emptiness" was basically successful.

"Swish".

Suddenly, Jiang Hao opened his eyes.

At this moment, all his senses came back.

"I'm back... and it's been ten years already?"

Jiang Hao murmured in a low voice.

Only ten years have passed.

But he had no concept of time during the process of becoming invisible.

It seems as long as thousands or tens of thousands of years.

This is the horror of "nothingness".

Jiang Hao checked his own condition immediately.

Cultivation: Great Power (Top)

Root bone: 100
Perception: 100
Spirit: 100
The Nine Seat Planes (Perfect)

Guardian Avenue: 2% (forty-nine avenues)
Nine Refinements of Transformation: First Refinement (Progress 1%)

Sure enough, he had successfully completed the first of the Nine Refinements of Huaxu.

"Congratulations, Brother Jiang, you have successfully transformed into the Void!"

Hei Zun also appeared in front of Jiang Hao.

"It's just one Void Transformation. The Nine Void Transformations require a total of nine Void Transformations, each one more powerful than the last. Whether it's possible to successfully achieve nine Void Transformations is still unknown."

Jiang Hao is not being modest.

Ever since he experienced the state of emptiness, he has known the horror of it.

Each time is more terrifying than the last.

It is very difficult to achieve emptiness nine times.

However, Jiang Hao did not show any fear.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, it only took you ten years to achieve the Void Transformation the first time, but it took me a full hundred years to achieve the Void Transformation, and I almost failed. It was purely luck that allowed me to successfully achieve the Void Transformation the first time."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang's achievements in the future will be limitless!"

Hei Zun said with a serious expression.

Although Hei Zun’s spiritual realm is currently higher than Jiang Hao’s.

It has already become empty three times.

But Hei Zun was very clear that Jiang Hao's talent was much better than his.

I will definitely be able to go further in the future.

Maybe he could even achieve the ninth transformation, complete the transformation of his soul, and become a great life form in the Ruins! (End of this chapter)
