Ten breaths before the planet self-destructed.
Su Ming sat cross-legged on the withered Outer Sky Planet. He was waiting for a powerful warrior who would definitely come. This was one of the important reasons why he had come to Heaven Traversers.
He wanted … to fight against a Master of Fate!
If he fought against a Master of Fate at full strength, he would definitely lose … but even if he would definitely lose, Su Ming still wanted to fight. He wanted to see just how great the difference between him and a Master of Fate was. Also … he wanted to get a feel of Heaven Traversers' strength!
He wanted to know just how many Masters of Fate there were in Heaven Traversers. If there was only one, then Su Ming would execute his plan, but if there was more than one, then he would have to change his plan.
Time trickled by. When the sixth breath arrived, Su Ming lifted his head swiftly. The Divine Essence Runic Symbols in his eyes shone, and they instantly filled his entire body. At the same time, a cold sneer appeared at the corners of his lips. He lifted his hands and pushed them down on the ground beneath him.
With it, his body shot up swiftly. Soon after, the planet roared, and cracks continuously spread out on the ground. A destructive power of self-destruction erupted from the planet.
At that moment, a cold harrumph came out of nowhere. As it reverberated in the air, the black clouds in the sky instantly tumbled about. Once they turned into layers of vortexes, Su Ming saw … a boundless expanse of Houtu Earth in the sky!
Perhaps more accurately speaking, it was not Houtu Earth, but a boundless palm. This … was the arrival of the Master of Fate, Lives, and Death of Heaven Traversers.
"He's finally here!" Su Ming threw his head back and laughed. When he leaped up, the power of the planet's collapse beneath him became even stronger. At that moment, if anyone looked from the galaxy, they would be able to clearly see a layer of meteors charging towards Outer Sky Planet. They were packed densely together, and their numbers could not be counted. They were traveling incredibly quickly, and in an instant, they closed in on Outer Sky Planet.
The meteors surrounded the planet, and as they connected with each other, they formed a gigantic meteor palm that was several times larger than the planet itself. It lifted its hand and seized the planet beyond the heavens. Judging by its momentum, it looked as if it wanted to crush the planet with a single swipe.
However, in the instant that the gigantic hand touched the planet, the planet … exploded with a bang. The force of the explosion, the destructive power, and the huge wave that swept through the starry sky all collided with the meteorite hand.
A deafening roar echoed across the starry sky in all directions. Even the four cultivators who had escaped far away could hear it clearly.
As the rumbles echoed, the gigantic meteor hand did not stop. The cold snort was still echoing in the air, and the hand had already grabbed the collapsing planet. It gave off a feeling that it was hard to tell if the planet had exploded first or if it had been crushed by the hand.
At the same time, the meteor palm did not stop. It went forward to seize it, as if the owner of the palm was certain that the destructive power of the planet was contained in the shattered meteor … and the culprit who had killed his Heaven Traversers and caused the destruction of the planet was also there.
"A Master of Fate, Lives, and Death, huh …" A deep voice rang out from within the collapsing planet. That voice was calm, and there was not the slightest hint of emotion within it. If one took a closer look at the shattered planet, they would be able to clearly see a man with long hair that danced in the wind standing on one of the shattered continents.
Naturally, that man was Su Ming.
"You're just asking for death!" An aloof voice traveled through the area. The meteor palm became even faster, and in the blink of an eye, it closed in on Su Ming, as if it wanted to bury him along with the broken planet.
"Who is the one asking for death?!" At the instant Su Ming spoke, Ecang's projection manifested with a bang around him. The gigantic shadow of the tree instantly appeared in the sky and crashed into the hand that came to seize him.
Booming sounds spread through the area at that moment. At the instant the hand crashed into Ecang's projection, it came to an abrupt halt. As the projection shuddered, it looked as if it was about to shatter. As it swayed violently, blood trickled out of the corners of Su Ming's mouth.
"Ecang …" An aloof voice came from the air, but its figure could not be seen.
"Even if you have Ecang's blood, if you offend Heaven Traversers, you will still die." As the voice spread out, the gigantic meteor palm exerted force again, and with a bang, it crushed Su Ming's Ecang projection. Su Ming shuddered and coughed up a mouthful of blood. With a pale face, he swiftly retreated, but there was no panic in his eyes. Instead, there was only calmness.
The Ecang projection behind him continuously reappeared as it crumbled, crashing into the gigantic palm that came to seize him multiple times. Booming sounds rose and fell, and each time they clashed, Su Ming's body would jolt. He could sense the great power in the palm, but similarly, he could also sense that the incoming Master of Fate, Lives, and Death was not as strong as the one he had met in the area where the four Great True Worlds were stationed in the past.
From the moment the projection appeared to the moment the clone truly descended, it would require a dozen something breaths. This amount of time was nothing to Su Ming. In truth, he had already made perfect preparations beforehand, and he could have his Ecang clone descend at any moment.
But he did not.
He stood there and watched Ecang's projection being destroyed time and time again. He watched the gigantic palm closing in on him and replacing the sky, the galaxy, and everything else, but he still did not have his Ecang clone appear.
Because he noticed that each time Ecang's projection crumbled, the projection that appeared once again would be much sturdier than before. It was like an ordinary piece of metal that needed to be tempered thousands of times before it would turn into an invincible steel. This was a form of refinement.
Booming sounds reverberated in the air. Su Ming's Ecang clone had no idea how many times his Ecang clone had crumbled and reappeared. By then, the meteor palm was about to clench into a fist. When Su Ming cast his gaze around him, he saw that he was surrounded by meteor palms. It was as if he had nowhere to hide and nowhere to fight against them!
From the galaxy, Su Ming could clearly see that the gigantic meteor palm was continuously clenching its fist, as if it wanted to crush everything in its palm, including the planets, the living beings, and even the galaxy.
During that instant, Su Ming lifted his head. The purple line at the center of his brows instantly opened up. At the same time purple light shone from within, the Malicious Eye appeared. In the span of a breath, the meteor palm above him was magnified endlessly in his eyes. As it was magnified layer by layer, he saw the crack between the palms.
A focused glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He leaped up and executed his full speed. In fact, he even retrieved Ecang's projection and had it fuse into his body, causing his speed to become even faster. In an instant, he flew out, and when a loud bang shook the galaxy and reverberated through the entire Heaven Traversers' territory, the meteor palm closed its fist and crushed everything, Su Ming rushed out from the crack where the Malicious Eye was looking!
From the distance, it could be seen that as the gigantic meteor palm closed its fist, a long arc swiftly flew out from it. At the same time it stood in the galaxy, Su Ming's dark voice tumbled out of his mouth.
"Ecang!"
Once he said those words, the illusory projection of the Ecang tree immediately manifested behind Su Ming. That projection swiftly gathered together, and a purple-haired man walked out from within!
The man's appearance caused the sky to churn, and the world to rumble. It was as if a huge wave had appeared in the starry sky, roaring and rolling. In fact, with the purple-haired man at the center, countless ripples could be seen spreading out in the starry sky. Those ripples all retreated, and if it was anyone else, they might not be able to tell what those ripples were.
However, Su Ming knew that they were the laws of the galaxy. At that moment, when Su Ming's Ecang clone appeared, those laws were forcefully chased away. It was as if the galaxy had turned into Ecang's territory because of Su Ming's Ecang clone. In that territory, all laws, wills, and rules would be moved by Ecang's will.
A long purple robe, long purple hair, and … a purple eye at the center of his brows!
At the instant Su Ming's Ecang clone appeared, his cultivation base clone moved, and his clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole walked out from his cultivation base clone. With Su Ming's soul as the guide, the three clones instantly overlapped with each other in the galaxy.
As they overlapped and the three clones turned into one person, Su Ming lifted his head. A malicious smile appeared at the corners of his lips, and a deep malevolent presence spread out from him. It was as if his existence was the source of all malevolence in the world. It was as if wherever he was, light would be replaced by purple darkness.
His level of cultivation continued rising from Solar Kalpa Realm. Even though he had yet to reach the level of a Master of Fate, Lives, and Death, he was infinitely close to it. An ancient air spread out from his body. That air of time surrounded the area, as if it could make the galaxy decay.
With that malicious smile on his face, Su Ming lifted his right hand and seized the air. Immediately, a white stone appeared on his palm. That stone was naturally Peace Arrives When the Elephant is Here!
He lifted his left hand upwards. As the galaxy trembled, a huge mountain appeared on Su Ming's left hand. That mountain … was Dao Avenue Mountain!
At the same time, a vast amount of purple fog spread out from under Su Ming's feet. As it roared, it swept in all directions and filled the galaxy, causing it to instantly turn into Su Ming's Ecang Galaxy.
"I want to fight against you!" Su Ming stared at the space in the distance. Gradually, a figure appeared before his eyes.
It was a middle-aged man dressed in a light blue long robe. He had a head of long blue hair, and he was incredibly handsome. He … did not have any wings on his back. There was wisdom in his eyes, causing all those who looked at him to feel as if they were immersed in the galaxy, and they would be unable to pull themselves out of it.
The man's lips were very thin, and there was a rather unkind air about him. However, that unkind air turned into a callous air, and he looked at Su Ming calmly.
"Should I call you Ecang, or … Tian Xie Zi's disciple?" the middle-aged man asked faintly.
"So you've been here since a long time ago." Su Ming smiled faintly.
"Leave behind your arms and legs. In the name of Ecang, I will allow you to leave with your head." The middle-aged man's expression was as calm as ever, and as he spoke, there was a tone that allowed no argument. When his voice traveled outwards, the purple fog around Su Ming tumbled about swiftly. The galaxy where the laws had been chased away, and as the man spoke, laws appeared once again. However, these laws belonged to him. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
