"What happened?" Su Ming asked calmly.
Dijiu Mo Sha remained silent for the span of a few breaths. When he looked at Su Ming, there was a hint of gratitude on his face.
"The tribe is in danger. It should be the invasion of the Hearers. In the past, the elder shifted the tribe's planet from the inner parts of Divine Essence Star Ocean to this place. Over the past one thousand years, we have been constantly migrating and hiding. The four races might not be chasing after us directly, but the small races that belong to them have been continuously causing my tribe to wither away over the years," Dijiu Mo Sha said through gritted teeth.
"In the beginning, we had nearly one hundred thousand people, but now, we have less than one thousand people …"
"Bring me to your tribe," Su Ming said calmly with Xu Hui in his arms.
Dijiu Mo Sha nodded. With one move, blood fog erupted from his body, and his speed instantly increased by several fold. Su Ming took a step forward beside him, and with just one step, he was already far away.
About two hours later, Dijiu Mo Sha's footsteps suddenly came to a halt. He looked around him carefully, then brought out a stone from his bosom. Once he crushed it, he scattered it outwards.
Immediately, a vortex the size of a palm appeared not too far away, and it absorbed the stone powder that scattered there.
"The vortexes in Divine Essence Star Ocean might be mysterious, but after countless years of research, the people here have discovered that some of these vortexes are endless abysses that lead to unknown places, but some of them are connected to another vortex in another part of Divine Essence Star Ocean.
"Once we find these safe vortexes, we can form a natural Relocation Formation. With their existence, we can make the distance beneath our feet no longer seem far.
"The records of these vortexes are the core of each tribe's treasures, and they cannot be discovered by outsiders. In fact, only a few people in the tribe know these secrets.
"The elder used some unknown method to discover quite a number of the Relocation vortexes in the Ninth Tribe in the past. It was also because of this that the tribe's planet was shifted from the inner parts of Divine Essence Star Ocean to the periphery.
"In fact, if it weren't for the existence of these vortexes, it would have been impossible for my people to still exist even after being continuously chased down for one thousand years. Besides, there are quite a number of vortexes that the other tribes still don't know about." Dijiu Mo Sha clearly did not treat Su Ming as an outsider. While observing the stone powder around him, he explained everything in detail.
"Once we return to the tribe, I will tell you all the records of the vortexes. It will be much more convenient for you in Divine Essence Star Ocean." Dijiu Mo Sha's eyes focused, and he looked at the spot where the stone fragments had disappeared. He raised his right hand and grabbed in that direction.
"Just touch it with your body. Don't open your eyes during the teleportation. After about ten breaths of time, we will be able to walk out of the other vortex!" Dijiu Mo Sha's voice was still echoing in the air when his body seemed to have been sucked into the fist-sized whirlpool in an instant. He was sucked inside, as if the edges of the whirlpool were soft and elastic, and they could devour everything.
A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. After a moment of pensive silence, he took a step forward and touched the vortex. At the instant he did so, he immediately felt himself being placed in a layer of softness. Almost at the moment this feeling appeared, he immediately noticed a great suction force pulling his body into the vortex with a bang.
Su Ming did not close his eyes. He kept them open.
He could sense that his body was being led forward by some sort of guiding power, and before him, he saw Dijiu Mo Sha, who had his eyes closed.
Besides that, Su Ming also saw … a colorful world. Countless jellyfish-like living creatures shone with light as they floated about. When Su Ming looked down, he saw that there was no end to the area beneath him. It was pitch black.
When Su Ming looked over, his eyes focused. He saw six brownish-yellow candles suddenly lighting up in a small region of the darkness beneath him.
At the same time, an enraged roar came from within the darkness. The instant that roar spread out, the colorful jellyfish creatures in the area quickly scattered.
Soon after, Su Ming could clearly see the six candles burning in the endless darkness beneath him as the roars rang out. They swiftly grew larger, as if three living beings were swiftly rushing out of the darkness.
"Close your eyes!" An anxious voice immediately came from not too far away from Su Ming. It was Dijiu Mo Sha. His body was being led forward, and when he heard the furious roar, he still had his eyes closed, but anxiety appeared on his face.
Su Ming did not close his eyes. He kept them open and stared at the endless darkness beneath him.
The six burning candles closed in on Su Ming. In about the span of six to seven breaths, the enraged roars turned into a powerful impact, and … a completely black horse that was treading on flames appeared before Su Ming's eyes.
The horse was completely black and surrounded by flames. There was a murderous look in its eyes, and there were two dragon heads on its back swinging about. Enraged roars reverberated in the air as it charged towards Su Ming.
A powerful, mighty pressure erupted from the strange beast's body. It was so strong that Su Ming knew once again that Masters of Fate, Lives, and Death were definitely not the strongest cultivators could reach!
"Don't look at anything in this place … Hah …" Dijiu Mo Sha's voice eventually turned into a sigh. His body disappeared from the colorful world without a trace, a telling sign that he had gone through the process of Relocation and was sent out.
The black horse with the two dragon heads drew closer at that moment. Its roars shook the area, and Su Ming could even feel that the guiding power on his body was about to crumble.
He narrowed his eyes, but he still did not close them.
At the instant Su Ming saw the horse, he had fallen in love with it. Its murderous presence matched his murderous aura, and the path it trod while covered in flames also matched a thought that had appeared in the depths of Su Ming's heart after he heard Dijiu Mo Sha's words.
Su Ming was incredibly satisfied with its speed. It had only used the span of a few breaths to charge over from the seemingly endless darkness, and Su Ming could not find any flaws in the horse's power either.
When Su Ming opened his eyes, he did not bother hiding the look in his eyes. His eyes were born from his heart, and it caused the black horse with the twin dragon heads to feel a rarely seen provocation. It also noticed Su Ming's intention to enslave it.
This caused the beast's enraged roars to become even stronger, and it became even faster!
However, to Su Ming, this was just a short Relocation. The span of a dozen something breaths had already ended, and his body was swiftly disappearing.
"You are mine." At the instant Su Ming's body disappeared, he said those words flatly. He knew that the black horse would hear him and would definitely be able to understand him.
He did not know whether there had been anyone before him who had said the same words to the black horse. If there had been, then Su Ming's actions would not have been of much use, but if there had not been …
Then Su Ming's words would turn into a seed that would be planted in the black horse's heart. As long as it remembered that someone had said those words, then that seed would exist.
This was Su Ming's Art.
It had transformed into an Art that would exist as long as he believed in it. In terms of level, it surpassed the Great Art of Berserker Seed.
"Roar!"
As the black horse's roars echoed in the air, Su Ming disappeared from the colorful world. When he reappeared, he was standing in the galaxy of Divine Essence Star Ocean. Before him was Dijiu Mo Sha, who was smiling wryly.
"Fourth senior brother, it's my fault for not telling you clearly. You can't look at anything in the world in the vortex … Once you look at it and remember what that place looks like, you will be remembered by the strange power in the world in the vortex.
"Unless you stop using the Relocation Vortex, then once you use it again, the living beings you see will not let you leave. Even if you manage to leave by a stroke of luck, as long as you continue using the Relocation Vortex, it will become increasingly dangerous." Dijiu Mo Sha sighed and charged forward. He was anxious for the safety of his tribe, and he was also slightly annoyed by Su Ming's previous actions.
Su Ming took a step forward and suddenly asked, "Do you know why Master only took you in as a disciple in name and not officially?"
Dijiu Mo Sha was momentarily stunned.
"It's because my potential is normal, very normal …" Dijiu Mo Sha said in a low voice.
"You're wrong." Su Ming shook his head.
"Who told you that you can't open your eyes in the world in the vortex?" Su Ming continued asking.
"There's no need for anyone to tell me this. This is common sense. It's common sense that almost everyone who lives here knows. Even if someone opens their eyes out of curiosity, not long after, they will no longer be able to walk out of the Relocation Vortex.
"Over the years, this sort of thing has happened far too many times, and I've seen far more of it than you have …" Dijiu Mo Sha said, feeling slightly indignant.
"Then has there been anyone who has successfully subdued the living beings in the world in the vortex and brought them out?" Su Ming looked at Dijiu Mo Sha and continued asking.
"Never!" Dijiu Mo Sha said without any hesitation.
"You're wrong." Su Ming stared at Dijiu Mo Sha, at his fifth junior brother, who he might not have admitted to it verbally, but had already accepted him in the depths of his heart.
"Common sense is a circle. If you believe in it, it will exist in your life. It will limit your steps and everything about you. It might be able to protect you …
"But it will also limit your development.
"Master only took you in as a disciple in name not because of your potential, but because you lack the courage to break common sense. Perhaps more accurately speaking, you don't have the will to break common sense.
"Have you ever wondered why Master could know more vortex tunnels than the other tribes in this place? "Have you ever wondered why Master could not be found even when he was chased down by the four races?
"In fact, I am certain that the black giant under Master is a ferocious spirit you've never seen before. It's not a beast from Divine Essence Star Ocean, and you've never wondered where it came from," Su Ming said slowly, but when his words landed in Dijiu Mo Sha's ears, they turned into a thunderous roar.
He remembered clearly that the elder's black giant's ferocious spirit was indeed something he had never seen before …
"That ferocious spirit should have come from the world in the vortex. Master was able to discover more vortex tunnels than the other tribes because he opened his eyes in the world in the vortex and … enslaved a ferocious spirit from the world in the vortex!" Su Ming said faintly.
Dijiu Mo Sha's footsteps came to an abrupt halt. He stared at Su Ming in a daze. His words echoed in his heart, and each of them caused his heart to tremble. Only at that moment did he suddenly understand why among the four disciples of the elder, the one he talked about the most was not his eldest senior brother, second senior brother, or third senior brother … but his fourth senior brother standing before him!
