"What serendipity?" Su Ming watched the fog under his feet spreading out to reveal the so-called Gate to Earth. A glint appeared in his eyes, and he spoke flatly.
"A great serendipity that will allow this clone of yours to step into Mastery Realm!" A strange light shone in the old man's eyes. As he laughed long and hard, his words traveled out with a loud rumble, causing a brilliant light to appear in Su Ming's eyes.
He did not ask any further questions. With one step, he stepped into the entrance of the fog and instantly entered the Gate to Earth.
Once he entered, the world reversed. Su Ming's vision was immediately covered by a powerful layer of light. Loud booming sounds echoed in his ears, and he also felt as if he was moving through water.
After a moment, when that feeling disappeared and the powerful light before Su Ming's eyes disappeared, he saw everything around him clearly, and he found himself … standing on an inverted mountain.
He was at the highest point, but he was at the foot of the mountain.
With just one glance, he saw the ten ferocious spirits formed by the ten cultivators charging forward. Their goal was the summit at the bottom of the mountain!
A freezing glare shone in Su Ming's eyes. At that moment, he might have a ferocious appearance, but his cultivation base had completely recovered. With one move, he charged downwards. He was so quick that even though he was the last, he was still closing in on the mountain.
In just a dozen something breaths, the mountain suddenly started swaying. If Su Ming's cultivation base had disappeared, he would have been incredibly bothered by it, but at that moment, this sort of swaying was insignificant to him.
He jumped up and charged forward as if he was falling down.
However, when the swaying lasted for several breaths, circles of light suddenly appeared in nine spots on the mountain. There were nine spots, but there were eleven ferocious spirits formed by the cultivators.
Su Ming was the last. He immediately saw the ferocious spirits formed by the ten cultivators charging towards the nine circles of light as if they had gone mad at the instant they appeared. Some of the stronger ferocious spirits could occupy an entire circle of light, but some of the weaker ones were fighting over it in a frenzy.
Booming sounds reverberated in all directions. As Su Ming charged forward, he saw Nian Yin and a ferocious spirit formed by a cultivator fighting for a circle of light. At the same time, a powerful sense of danger rose in Su Ming's heart.
It was as if the mountain was sending a dangerous divine thought to all the living beings on it at that moment. Under that divine thought, the light from the nine circles of light rapidly dimmed. Su Ming also had a strong understanding that once the circles of light completely dimmed, all those who were not in them … would have their right to participate in the trial taken away. Their memories would be extracted, and they would become the price for wanting to obtain the legacy.
The moment Su Ming closed in on the nine circles of light, the ferocious spirit that was Nian Yin let out a shrill scream of pain. His head was devoured by the ferocious spirit that was another cultivator. As it chewed on his head, that person stood in the circle of light and started roaring.
When Su Ming saw that the nine circles of light were rapidly dimming, the sense of danger in his heart grew stronger once more. He did not have time to think too much about it. With a step forward, he charged towards the circle of light closest to him.
In that circle of light was a ferocious spirit that was one hundred feet big. The pustules on his body had been damaged multiple times, and many of them had already dried up. His eyes were bloodshot, and there was also confusion and madness in them. Clearly, he had failed several times before, and an unknown number of years of his memories had been extracted.
However, no matter how many memories he had, the faint consciousness that came from his soul still existed. He knew that he could not allow others to snatch away the circle of light he was in. He could not be forced out of the circle of light. Otherwise, the pain of having his seven emotions and six desires extracted would be an unimaginable nightmare for anyone.
At the instant Su Ming closed in, the ferocious spirit let out a loud roar. He lifted his swollen right hand, formed a seal, and pointed at Su Ming. With it, the world immediately roared, and a powerful gust of wind rose out of nowhere. It surrounded the area and swiftly gathered on the ferocious spirit's finger. In the end, it turned into a long arc that looked like it could tear through space and charged towards the incoming Su Ming.
Killing intent shone in Su Ming's eyes. Not only did he not retreat, he instead became even faster. He leaped up and took a step downwards. He lifted his right hand, and the purplish black ring on his thumb shone. The Life Inequity Spear appeared in his hand, and at the instant the light from the circle of light was about to completely fade away, he turned into an afterimage and crashed into the incoming long arc.
As booming sounds reverberated in the air, Su Ming shot through the long arc and stepped into the circle of light. His speed was so fast that it could not be described with words. When the other ferocious spirits in the area looked over, they only saw a piercing light and heard booming sounds that surged into the sky.
When the powerful light disappeared and the booming sounds came to an end, what appeared before the ferocious spirits' eyes was Su Ming standing in the circle of light. Beyond the circle of light was a twitching corpse, and there was a long spear stabbed into the corpse's right eye!
Su Ming's expression was aloof. Once he slowly pulled out the long spear, he looked around him coldly.
It was also at this moment that the circle of light under his feet disappeared. Soon after, circles of light appeared some distance below him. This time, there were no longer nine circles of light, but seven!
Almost at the instant the seven circles of light appeared below him, the other eight ferocious spirits besides Su Ming rushed out at full speed, intending to snatch a spot that belonged to them among the seven circles of light.
Su Ming did not say a single word. He did not think about which circle of light belonged to a ferocious spirit. Instead, he focused his gaze on one of the circles of light, and he would kill whoever tried to snatch it from him!
These ferocious spirits might not have been weaklings when they were still cultivators in the past, but they had been in this place for many years. They had lost their memories and emotions due to their repeated failures. Perhaps they had become even more crazed, but compared to the past, they could not compare.
'This is a game for Old Ya Mu. Over the years, these people have never succeeded. This is enough to tell that Ya Mu does not want them to succeed.
'That's why there will definitely be other obstructions during the final fight.' A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. As he charged forward, he stared at the first circle of light among the seven circles of light.
'That's it.'
As roars reverberated in the air, the ferocious spirits on the mountain spread out and charged towards the seven circles of light. After a moment, when Su Ming approached the first circle of light, there was another ferocious spirit who had clearly also chosen it.
That ferocious spirit was nearly two hundred feet tall. When he took a step forward, he stepped into the circle of light almost at the same time as Su Ming. The ferocious spirit roared, and as thunder roared, he clenched his right fist and threw a punch straight at Su Ming.
Su Ming lifted his right hand and placed the Life Inequity Spear horizontally in front of him. With it, booming sounds reverberated in the air, and he immediately pushed his left hand against his right hand.
With a bang, Su Ming took three steps back and stood at the edge of the circle of light. As for the ferocious spirit, he staggered four steps back. Once he stepped out of the circle of light, he opened his mouth wide and was just about to roar at Su Ming when killing intent shone in Su Ming's eyes. He opened his mouth before the ferocious spirit and roared at him.
This was the first roar Su Ming let out after he took on that ferocious appearance. A heinous murderous aura erupted from his body with a bang. It swept up the air around him, and as it distorted, the ferocious spirit instinctively took a few steps back. As his pupils shrank, he moved and avoided the circle of light where Su Ming was to rush to another circle of light.
The brutal battle in the seven circles of light immediately reached its most intense state. After a moment, with the price of two ferocious spirits dying, there was a ferocious spirit standing in each of the seven circles of light.
What caught Su Ming's attention was a ferocious spirit that was only eighty feet tall standing in the seventh circle of light. All the boils on its body had shriveled up, and its eyes were lowered slightly. There was a tuft of white fur on its forehead.
As it stood there, an ancient air would occasionally appear on its body. Its eyes might seem crimson, but Su Ming could sense that there was clarity hidden under that crimson hue.
This was a ferocious spirit that had complete intelligence.
What made Su Ming pay attention to this ferocious spirit was that as long as it occupied the circle of light, no other ferocious spirits would fight for it. If he thought about it carefully, he would be able to see some clues.
In fact, when Su Ming looked towards it, it seemed to have noticed it and turned its head to cast him a glance.
Old Ya Mu watched this scene with a smile on his face above the fog beyond the mountain, and a brilliant light shone in his eyes.
"Not bad, not bad. The murderous aura on his body is incredibly thick. He's not someone who has not gone through any trials. If this boy can obtain my legacy, then I will definitely not be stingy with his serendipity.
"An Abyss Builder Possessed Ecang. This is interesting, very interesting! "But I'll have to make the fight even more intense. Only then will I be able to see more." The old man licked his lips. The smile on his face matched his expression, and the malicious air around him became even thicker. Even an endless amount of malicious air spread out from his body.
He lifted his right hand and pointed at the mountain under the fog.
At that moment, the circles of light where Su Ming and the other ferocious spirits were immediately dimmed down. Once they disappeared, only … two circles of light appeared on the mountain beneath them!
All of a sudden, the number of halos had dropped from seven to two. This almost instantly caused the fight for the inheritance to reach a crazy level.
Su Ming lifted his head swiftly and looked at the fog above him. He could vaguely see Old Ya Mu's figure.
As the two circles of light appeared beneath them, besides Su Ming, the other six ferocious spirits roared furiously. With bloodshot eyes, they charged forward at a maddening speed.
Two circles of light meant that five out of the seven of them would fail!
"Are these the rules you set?" Su Ming ignored the six ferocious spirits who had rushed out. He lifted his head and looked at the indistinct old man in the fog above him, and a freezing glare appeared in his eyes.
"Choose two out of the seven, and then engage in a battle that will please you. Whether the person who emerges in the end will be able to obtain the inheritance will depend on your mood. If you're unwilling, you can directly make him fail, or you can use it as a reward and not extract his memories.
"I believe that you've been doing this over the years.
"But this is your rule, not mine!" Su Ming turned his head around and looked at the six charging ferocious spirits before he closed his eyes. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
