Chapter 295 Ascending to Heaven
On September 9th, the people on the Tiandao Road carried the rocket they had rubbed by hand to the top of the ’s more like a rocket than a rocket.
Mountains are the closest places to the sky. Although this is unscientific, it is very reasonable.
Sima Qiudao said simply: "Thank you all for coming! I am ready to ascend to heaven now!"
Really just two sentences.
He couldn't wait to ascend to heaven.
He threw life and death behind his mind. The only thing in his mind was to ascend to heaven and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
"I wish you success in your ascension to heaven!" all the Taoists congratulated in unison.
Sima Qiudao didn't waste any words. He turned around and came to the black and white rocket that was more than ten meters high and said, "I'm leaving now!"
Shi Feizhe saw him leap forward, jump to the side of the rocket, grab the pickpocket on one side of the rocket, and then hit the rocket with a palm.
The rocket was ignited by this palm!
At the tail of the rocket, there was a bang and orange flames spurted out, and then the rocket staggered into the air.
It's obvious that there are serious design problems here. Under normal circumstances, the rocket would quickly shake and fall to the ground, then explode.
But the underworld has its own ways!
Sima Qiudao, who was on the rocket, used his pickpocket to constantly control the balance of the rocket. At the same time, he pressed his palm on the rocket to continuously transfer his energy, making the rocket ignite faster!
With a "bang", the rocket flew into the sky like a rocket!
Li Qingshan, Xiao Daoren, Dongfang Yanyan, and hundreds of Taoists from Dengtian Dao could not help but shed tears when they saw the rocket flying into the sky.
Over the years, I worried when I received the blueprints, then thought of a solution, then failed, and failed countless times before I finally came up with something like this.
They knew that Sima Qiudao would never come back once he left, taking their sect's thousand-year-old wish of flying into the sky with him!
"Goodbye, Master! Goodbye, Master!" Li Qingshan said softly as he looked at the flames with thick smoke in the sky.
Although the rocket took off, Sima Qiudao on the rocket felt the pressure.
The direction of the rocket was too difficult to control. If he hadn't used his true qi to change the direction of the rocket many times, the rocket might have crashed into the mountain.
Invisible wind appeared around him, and blazing fire flowed along his palms, igniting the fuel inside the rocket.
The fuel was high-concentration methane they bought from Yangzhou through Sanjin Daoren.
It clearly smells like alcohol, so why do people in Yangzhou call it methane? Sima Qiudao doesn't know.
But it's okay as long as it can be used.
Sima Qiudao took out the little thing he asked Dongfang Yanyan to make yesterday. It was a chain with buckles that could be buckled on the armrest of the rocket and the other end could be buckled on his own hand.
This would allow him to move steadily up and down the rocket, and then constantly tap the rocket to transfer his energy and adjust its direction.
Soon, the fuel in the four boosters was burned out, and Sima Qiudao kicked the four boosters away with several kicks.
The rockets that go to the sky are not automated and are all manually operated.
After removing the boosters, the weight became much lighter and the speed of the rocket actually increased.
At this time, they had reached an altitude of 50,000 meters. In the past, the highest altitude that the Ascension Path could reach was this.
Continuing to fly upwards, the air gradually rose, and the tail end of the rocket began to catch fire and even deformed.
Sima Qiudao was not surprised by this situation. He came to the middle of the rocket and kicked away about one-third of the lower half of the rocket. Now, the second stage of the rocket was officially launched!
At an altitude of 50,000 to 60,000 meters, the rocket flew upward like a sharp arrow. After removing the booster and the first-stage rocket, the weight of the second-stage rocket was greatly reduced, and its speed was even faster.
But it also means it's harder to control.
Sima Qiudao grabbed the pickpocket on the rocket, gritted his teeth, and steered the rocket. The high temperature in the mesosphere and the strong wind that was several times faster than the speed of sound tore his clothes to shreds.
But the rocket began to slow down.
Because if you don't exceed the second cosmic speed, you can't fly out of the atmosphere, and this is especially true the higher you go.
Sima Qiudao looked at the ground beneath his feet greedily. Through the white clouds that were who knows how far away, he realized that the ground beneath his feet was like a ball and had a curvature.
He could only vaguely see a white area, as if he was flying from that place. In other places, he even saw the blue sea.
It turns out that the world is like this, and it turns out that I have always been living on a ball.
He looked up and saw the sky slowly getting darker. The sun was still bright, but the sky was very dark. The sun was like a big fireball in the black curtain.
So this is what the sun looks like.
In the black sky, there are still some stars twinkling.
It turns out that stars shine during the day too!
The world turns out to be like this, and this is the "heaven" they have been pursuing on their way to heaven!
Every time he looked at it, he saw a real world that overturned his common sense and cognition. In the past, he was like an ant on a ball, but now he can see this world!
It's worth my life! It's worth my life!
Sima Qiudao's eyes were filled with tears, his long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled!
As the rocket flew, Sima Qiudao felt the temperature around him slowly dropping, and the oxygen in the air became thinner. At this speed, he estimated that he had flown about 100,000 meters!
He knew that they had almost entered the thermosphere.
The rocket also slowed down and seemed unable to fly.
Is this the end?
Is this the sky?
No, it's not!
Is 100,000 meters the limit?
no!
The real world completely overturned Sima Qiudao's understanding.
The incredible yet real scenes in the sky allowed him to break through the Heavenly Questioning Gate and his cultivation level increased steadily.
He became a barrier-breaking warrior!
If he chose to turn the rocket around at this time, he might be able to land safely.
Maybe he can still survive!
But Sima Qiudao did not make this choice, because he still wanted to continue flying upwards!
He wants to go to a higher place to take a look!
He thought of the founder of the way to heaven. Heaven is there, why not go and see it?
The rocket can no longer fly, not because the fuel has been burned out, but because its speed is too slow and it cannot escape the earth's gravity.
But what if there are warriors who can break through barriers by burning their energy, blood and lifespan?
Of course it is possible!
"Fly for me! Fly for me!" Sima Qiudao placed his hands on the rocket, and the unrivaled power of the barrier-breaking warrior exploded in the rocket, making the rocket explode at a faster speed.
Mach 3, Mach 5, Mach 10, Mach 20, and even higher!
The rocket broke through the limits, broke through the impossible speed, and broke through the constraints of the planet!
Break through to 15 kilometers, break through to 200,000 kilometers, break through the atmosphere, and reach space!
Of course all this comes at a price!
Fly, fly!
