'Am I free..?' Zhu You Cai lowered his head and sat down quietly on the ground. The world he was in was formed by pools of water. At that moment, there was a pool of water beside him, and he could see the blue sky in it.
Zhu You Cai stared at his thick palm. After a long while, he opened his palm, and in it … was a faint red medicinal core!
He stared at the medicinal core, and his expression slowly turned gentle, along with anguish.
"No matter who it is, I'm free …" Zhu You Cai mumbled. He stood up and cast a glance at the pool beside him. In silence, he walked over. When he stood there and lowered his head to look, he saw his own reflection on the water.
His body was as fat as a pig's, and the thick layers of fat on his face made him look hideous. His eyes were bloodshot, and his hair was a mess. As he stared at his reflection, Zhu You Cai closed his eyes.
When he opened them again … he was still Zhu You Cai. With a single move, he turned into a long arc that charged into the distance.
'The Abyss Builders in the Fifth True World have the Art to resurrect the dead. As long as there's a fragment of their soul, they can return to the world. Even though the Fifth True World has already disappeared and even though the Abyss Builders are rumored to have gone extinct … as long as there's a hint of hope, I will definitely go to the Fifth True World and find the Abyss Builders so that I can resurrect you …'
…..
Su Ming and Flame Fiends' Progenitor moved through the passage of time. His life force flowed out time and time again, causing Su Ming to feel tired. At the same time, he could not help but remember the promise of one thousand years made to the cultivators in Western Ring Nebula's foreign land.
This promise was also related to time. It had originally existed, but once Su Ming Possessed Ecang, it disappeared. However, the prerequisite … was that he had to have his Ecang clone devour the other Ecangs so that he could continue growing stronger until he completely occupied Western Ring Nebula's foreign land and turned it into his own cave abode.
This was Su Ming's goal. At that moment, it was still a little far away, but without a doubt … the Ecang clone was already stronger than the other Ecangs, but it was still not strong enough to devour all the other souls in one go.
As he moved forward, Su Ming moved through one dimension after another. He did not stay for long. Usually, once he arrived in a dimension, he would scan it with his divine sense, and when he did not find the body of the supreme treasure, he would immediately choose to leave.
Because of it, Flame Fiends' Progenitor suffered. He was a Nascent Divinity, and each time he moved through the void, he would become even more tired, but he did not dare speak, worried that he would provoke Su Ming's killing intent.
As he followed, he sighed repeatedly in his heart. When he arrived in front of the fifth kiln, he had never expected that he would end up like this. In the depths of his heart, he regretted more than once … why he had shown hostility towards Su Ming in the beginning.
"This person is ruthless and cunning. We must not provoke him again." Flame Fiends' Progenitor cast a wary glance at Su Ming in front of him. He might not have forced him to follow him, but he could already imagine that if he did anything abnormal, it would be the same as giving Su Ming an excuse to attack.
While moving forward, Su Ming suddenly asked, "Once we reach the Spirit Trudging Platforms at the edge of the second layer, the number of dimensions will decrease, and the chances of dimensions containing supreme treasures appearing will increase. How much do you understand about that place?"
'The edge of the third layer in the fifth furnace is relatively safe. After all, the possibility of us running into each other isn't high …' When he said this, Flame Fiends' Progenitor stopped speaking, and he sighed in his heart again.
'It's the same between the edge of the third layer and the edge of the second layer. However, the chances of us running into each other are higher, but if we're a little more careful, nothing too big will happen.
'However, the space between the Spirit Trudging Platforms at the edge of the second layer and the edge of the first layer is incredibly intense. There aren't many dimensions there to begin with, and because of that, there are usually several people who appear in the same dimension at the same time. If there is a supreme treasure …' Flame Fiends' Progenitor cast Su Ming a glance.
'It's a fight to the death! I've come to the fifth kiln a few times, and every single time I reach the edge of the second layer and the first layer, powerful warriors will die.
'Once the few remaining people step into the Spirit Trudging Platforms at the edge of the first layer, they will head to the core of the fifth kiln. Over there, their fights will reach their peak, because the nine strongest supreme treasures will appear there. This sort of temptation … is not something a person can resist.
'But the few times I've come here before, I've at most reached the space between the second and first layer. I chose to leave before I stepped into the core, which is why I'm still alive,' Flame Fiends' Progenitor said in a low voice.
Su Ming's expression was calm, but a thought appeared in his heart. As he moved forward, he walked out of the crack in the dimension and stepped into a new dimension. He had no idea how many dimensions he had walked through. Based on his estimations, he should be about to reach the end of the Spirit Trudging Platforms at the edge of the second layer.
Almost at the instant Su Ming appeared in the dimension, his expression changed. At the same time, pleasant surprise also flashed briefly in the eyes of Flame Fiends' Progenitor beside him.
There was an intense battle going on in the sky of the dimension. Booming sounds reverberated in the air, stirring up a large amount of ripples that turned into impact that swept through the area, causing violent gusts of wind to howl as if the sky was about to collapse and the earth was about to shatter.
The two people fighting were the bodies of the supreme treasures where Zhu You Cai, Xuan Shang, Xu Hui, and the others were!
The ground in the dimension was a vast ocean. As the ripples from the battle in the sky spread out, huge waves were stirred up. Those waves rumbled, causing a gigantic whirlpool to appear on the surface of the ocean.
As that whirlpool continued rotating, all those who saw it could see the bottom of the ocean with just one glance!
There was a statue at the bottom of the ocean. It was a strange statue with three heads. Its entire body shone with a white light, and it looked like a piece of jade. It stood at the bottom of the ocean, and white light spread out from it to illuminate the sky.
There were nearly a hundred ferocious sea dragons surrounding the whirlpool. They would occasionally lift their heads and roar at the sky, but they did not dare get close to the white statue.
"The supreme treasure!" Flame Fiends' Progenitor immediately said.
This was the first time Su Ming had entered the dimension with the supreme treasure. The ripples of power and presence spreading out from the treasure clearly surpassed that of the supplementary treasures, causing all those who saw it to be able to tell just how extraordinary it was with just one glance.
Of the statue's three heads, one was crying, one was laughing, and the last one was enraged!
With three heads and one body in the depths of the ocean, all those who saw it would be tempted, but they would also be unable to help but feel a hint of strangeness towards the treasure.
The appearance of Su Ming and Flame Fiends' Progenitor immediately attracted the attention of the two parties fighting in the sky. The body of the supreme treasure had a calm expression on its face, but the hearts of Xuan Shang and his group trembled.
Xu Hui was very calm. She knew that Su Ming would definitely be able to catch up to them, and when she saw him at that moment, she was not surprised. Progenitor Long Hai was also an old fox. With his age, he naturally knew that Su Ming would be able to find him due to his promise with him. He might have the body of the supreme treasure, but this person was once the main soul, so he would naturally not believe that he did not have any tricks up his sleeves.
In truth, besides the bald crane, Xu Hui, and Progenitor Long Hai, there was also the mark he left on the body of the supreme treasure that could lead Su Ming to this place.
That mark was not within the body of the supreme treasure, but outside it. Since he was once the main soul, it was not difficult for him to do these things.
Once Zhu You Cai saw Su Ming, his pupils shrank. Su Ming's face was incredibly unfamiliar to him, but when he saw Flame Fiends' Progenitor beside him, he turned his head around swiftly and cast a deep glance at the body of the supreme treasure.
"Xuan Family's supreme treasure!" A fierce glare instantly appeared in Zhu You Cai's eyes. If it was anyone else, perhaps they would not be able to see through it so quickly, but he … could.
The body of the supreme treasure had arrived here first, and Zhu You Cai had arrived later, which was why they had fought against each other. At that moment, when he saw the unfamiliar face of Su Ming and Flame Fiends' Progenitor appear, a glint appeared in Zhu You Cai's eyes. He already knew why he had felt a sense of unfamiliarity when he fought against the body of the supreme treasure just now.
Clearly, the body of the supreme treasure had been controlled by the cultivator beside Flame Fiends' Progenitor. Besides, Su Ming only needed to look at the person beside Flame Fiends' Progenitor to be able to tell just who was in control of the body of the supreme treasure.
A barely noticeable glint shone in Zhu You Cai's eyes. Almost the moment he understood the relationship between Su Ming and the body of the supreme treasure, he charged towards the vortex in the ocean on the ground. Judging by the direction he was heading, he was heading towards the three-headed statue. He was so quick that he instantly closed in on it.
As Zhu You Cai took action, the expression of the body of the supreme treasure with Xuan Shang and his group changed swiftly. Just as they were about to chase after him, a brilliant light shone in Su Ming's eyes. When he lifted his right hand, the ring on his thumb instantly appeared.
At the instant the purplish black ring shone with light, a purplish black long spear appeared in Su Ming's hand. When he lifted it, without any hesitation, he threw it towards the charging Zhu You Cai.
A whistling sound instantly sliced through the air. The piercing sound was like a woman's shrill weeping. As it reverberated in the air, the body of the supreme treasure immediately froze in midair. Xuan Shang and his group let out screams of pain, and their hearts were attacked by that sound.
"Life Death Spear! It … It's actually here?! "As Xuan Shang screamed in pain, disbelief appeared on his face.
In fact, even Xu Hui's mind was thrown into chaos. Her divine sense instantly became blank.
But that was not all, when Progenitor Long Hai heard that piercing sound, his Nascent Divinity showed signs of becoming unstable, and his heart changed drastically.
"True Sacred Yin World's War Immortal Chang He's Life Death Spear!"
Zhu You Cai was originally moving incredibly quickly as he charged towards the three-headed statue, but at the instant the piercing whistling sound traveled into his ears, his body shuddered, and he came to an abrupt halt in midair. When he turned his head around, he stared at the incoming long spear in a daze, then at Su Ming, whose long hair danced in the air in the distance.
The black-robed Su Ming caused a dazed expression to appear on Zhu You Cai's face at that moment. He seemed … to see a middle-aged man with grief, mixed feelings of gratitude and resentment towards his Master, and grief and guilt towards his lover. In the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, he was … himself, who had his soul scattered in the air.
'So it's him …'
