When the screen of light shattered, Su Ming's meditating figure was revealed. The onlookers could clearly see that his body was completely red at that moment. Veins popped up on his skin, and he was trembling nonstop. His expression was distorted, as if he was enduring great pain.
A thick fragrance spread out from Su Ming's trembling body. That fragrance was so thick that it swiftly spread out in all directions when the screen of light shattered. The ferocious beast with the cries of a baby in the distance had been attracted over when the screen of light shattered just then.
To ferocious beasts, that fragrance was enough to stir up the madness in their ancient blood.
And that was only for a short period of time. If the fragrance had spread out for a longer period of time, then even more ferocious beasts would have been stimulated by that fragrance, and ferocious expressions would appear on their faces.
In fact, the cultivators on the thirteen warships also smelled that fragrance. Their cultivation bases started circulating rapidly due to the stimulation, as if with each breath they took, their cultivation bases would increase slightly.
This scene caused their hearts to tremble. It did not matter whether it was the nine old men or Xu Hui, who was hidden in space, all of them looked towards Su Ming. Their expressions might have been different, but at that moment, all of them were surprised and bewildered.
"Waves of Tears in Star Ocean!" The fog tumbled about in the distance. When the baby wailing spread in all directions, the thirteen warships immediately shone with a dark light. The pupils of the catwoman on Su Ming's warship shrank, and she immediately cried out anxiously. Her face was flushed red. The fragrance from Su Ming's body was slightly better to cultivators, but to ferocious beasts, it stimulated them even more.
She could turn into a catwoman, which was a state between a human and a ferocious beast. Because of that, Su Ming's presence was enough to throw her mind into chaos. At that moment, she bit down on her tongue to remain clear-headed.
"This beast is a strange spirit that lives in the periphery of Divine Essence Star Ocean, but it's very docile. Usually, it won't attack anyone who passes by, but today, it …" At the instant the catwoman said those words, the cry of a baby traveled into their ears with a bang, and it was several times louder than before.
That cry was piercing. When it came from the fog in the distance, a large amount of ripples stirred up in the galaxy, as if the cry had turned into a wave of sound that tumbled about in all directions.
There were twelve warships protecting Su Ming's ship, and three of them were facing the Waves of Tears. Almost at the instant the piercing sound wave roared in the air, the three warships instantly tilted to the side and were forced backwards by the impact of the sound wave.
The catwoman's face was slightly pale when she immediately said, "Their voices are like waves, and their cries seem to have turned the galaxy into an ocean. As they tumble about, the sound of waves can drown out space. This … This is the Waves of Tears in the periphery of Divine Essence Star Ocean."
"Notify all of the battleships to use their most powerful divine abilities to kill that beast!" One of the nine old men said in a sinister voice, "Tell all of the battleships to use their most powerful divine abilities to kill that beast!"
"Elder, you can't. This beast doesn't live alone. It likes to live in groups. If we attack, we might attract other Waves of Tears Beasts. At that time …" The catwoman hurriedly stopped them.
"Go around it." Before the nine old men could speak again, Xu Hui's solemn voice came from the void.
The moment she spoke, before Su Ming woke up, was the highest order from this group of people. Even the nine old men chose to obey her.
Immediately, the thirteen warships moved forward slowly while protecting Su Ming, intending to circle around the region and avoid the Waves of Tears.
However, at the instant the thirteen warships were about to circle around the Waves of Tears, the piercing cries of a baby reverberated in the air once again. This time, the fog tumbling about in the distance swiftly spread outwards. From its previous ten thousand feet size, it grew to nearly fifty thousand feet, and it was moving. Judging by the direction it was moving … it was heading towards where the thirteen warships were.
It was trying to stop the thirteen battleships from leaving. That piercing wail stirred up ripples in the starry sky, as if it had the will of the Wave of Tears. It came from all directions like waves, stopping the thirteen battleships from moving forward.
"You're just asking for death!" The old man who had spoken previously might still have his eyes closed, but when his cold and sinister voice reverberated in the air, it spread through the thirteen warships.
"Use your most powerful magical technique to kill this beast!"
Since the Waves of Tears' hostility was already clear, simply avoiding it would not solve the problem. That was why Xu Hui did not stop the old man from speaking this time.
Almost at the instant the old man's words spread through the thirteen battleships, the dark light on all the battleships shone brightly. As the light shone dazzlingly, a vortex seemed to have appeared at the tips of the thirteen battleships, and the dark light on each battleship was instantly sucked away.
Boom!
A loud bang that shook the sky and earth reverberated in the galaxy. Thirteen gigantic black pillars of light erupted from the thirteen warships with an astonishing presence. The thirteen pillars of light were like thirteen sharp arrows that sliced through the galaxy and stirred up ripples that surged into the sky. They crashed into the waves of sound coming from the Waves of Tears' piercing cries.
The thirteen pillars of light sliced through space right before everyone's eyes and crashed into the continuously swelling fog … but like a stone falling into the sea, they were devoured by the fog. Not a single one of them managed to pierce through it.
This scene landed in the eyes of the people from Morning Dao Sect, but their expressions remained the same. There were not many changes in them. In fact, the nine old men's lips curled up into cold sneers.
Almost as soon as the smile appeared, a loud rumble that surpassed all the previous sounds suddenly erupted from within the fog.
In the mid of that loud bang, the fog was torn to pieces from within. When it tumbled backwards, the entire mass of fog instantly disintegrated.
Yet at the instant it disintegrated, the cries of infants surged into the sky from within it. Ferocious beasts that looked like monkeys but were only about one hundred feet tall surged out of the fog.
The flock of Waves of Tears let out piercing howls without stop. Once they rushed out, fog would naturally gather around their bodies, causing their bodies to swiftly become indistinct. This scene brought great shock to the people from Morning Dao Sect.
However, that shock instantly turned into shudders, then numbness on their skins.
This was because, in the distant starry sky, another ten huge balls of fog had appeared, and the cries of infants rose and fell. This was because … in the distance, everyone saw a meteorite flying towards them at high speed!
The meteor was dark red, and under it were countless Waves of Tears that were about one thousand feet tall. As they roared, they charged forward as if they were carrying the meteor.
In fact … there was a Wave of Tears that was one hundred thousand feet tall on the meteor. Its eyes were bloodshot, and greed could be seen in them. Its roars could drown out all the ferocious beasts.
"Activate your full speed and leave this place as soon as possible!" Xu Hui could not remain calm. Her voice immediately echoed in the air, and in an instant, the thirteen warships let out loud booming sounds and turned into thirteen long arcs that charged into the distance.
But behind them, the innumerable Waves of Tears were chasing after them with a howl.
"Damn monkeys! I hate monkeys the most!" The bald crane popped its head out of its room and cast a glance at the endless number of Waves of Tears behind it. It immediately shuddered and started gnashing its teeth in exasperation.
"Monkeys are the most despicable. Hmm? Why do I feel like I had a grudge against them in the past? Hmm, I don't care. No matter what, monkeys are the most despicable! "As it mumbled, it suddenly wrinkled its nose and looked towards Su Ming. Surprise appeared on its face.
"This fragrance … is familiar. It's very familiar. I think I ate it in the past …" While the bald crane was surprised, the Abyss Dragon beside it was already trembling. It circulated its cultivation base with excitement on its face. It could clearly sense that its shattered cultivation base was showing signs of healing under the stimulation of the fragrance.
Booming sounds rang out in the world outside. There were no less than hundreds of thousands of Waves of Tears. Their numbers alone were enough to make all the cultivators' hearts tremble. Unless they were powerful warriors in Solar Kalpa Realm, it would be impossible for them to fight against them.
In fact, perhaps even those in Solar Kalpa Realm would not be able to remain calm in the face of such a swarm of Waves of Tears. After all, the mighty pressure spreading out from the one hundred thousand feet Waves of Tears in the distance was enough to intimidate everything.
Su Ming did not know about the danger the group faced at that moment. At that moment, he was circulating all his cultivation base and continuously melting the God Ascension Nectar in his blood. He circulated it repeatedly, and every single time it stirred up a loud bang in his body, he would tremble even more. In fact, he felt as if even his soul was about to scatter.
This was … just a hint of the God Ascension Nectar, but even if it was just a hint, Su Ming was already on the verge of being unable to withstand it. If his Ecang clone had not been constantly protecting his soul and guiding his cultivation base to circulate and digest the God Ascension Nectar while he was awake, his body would have exploded a long time ago due to the power of the God Ascension Nectar.
Serendipity had no form and was difficult to grasp. The God Ascension Nectar had a great impact on all lives, but it was not the same for the poisonous wasp. It could stay in its body safely and fuse with its poison, but it did not increase the wasp's combat abilities. In fact, it did not even have much of an effect on its poison.
It was just like how its poison might be poison to other living beings, but to the wasp, it would be fine.
As Su Ming continued melting the God Ascension Nectar, his level of cultivation increased exponentially. He broke through the bottleneck of the initial stage of World Plane Realm, and once he reached the middle stage of World Plane Realm, his level of cultivation increased once again, and he moved swiftly towards attaining completion in the middle stage of World Plane Realm.
However … at that moment, he had only melted less than three-tenths of the God Ascension Nectar in his body, but Su Ming could already clearly sense that he had already reached his limit.
His soul could no longer continue, and it was even harder for his body to continue melting. His potential in his cultivation base was even showing signs of crumbling under the impact of the God Ascension Nectar.
'God Ascension Nectar … the power of Divinity Ascension … The wisp of God Ascension Nectar in my body right now is just a tiny bit of the God Ascension Nectar in the poisonous wasp's body, but I can't completely melt it. I need to get used to it for a period of time before I can continue trying. Because of that, the parts of the God Ascension Nectar in my body that I can't fuse with are no longer serendipities, but fatal poison!' Su Ming opened his eyes with great difficulty. The Divine Essence Runic Symbols on his Sacred Constellation Robe rose and fell. He was using the power of Divine Essence to suppress the God Ascension Nectar.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the endless swarm of Waves of Tears behind him, heard the piercing screeches that spread through the galaxy, and saw the solemn expressions on the faces of the people around him.
At the same time, he also smelled the thick fragrance coming from his body. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
