There was a powerful, domineering tone to Su Ming's voice. It was filled with madness and destruction. There was not a hint of rationality in it. There was only … a madness that said, "If you turn against me, I will kill you."
As his voice echoed in the air, the four masked people in the fifth ocean came to a halt. They turned around slowly, and their gazes instantly landed on the red-haired Su Ming.
"As you wish." After a moment, the person with the Mask of Happiness said in a hoarse voice. He lifted his right hand and swung his arm. Immediately, the other three people beside him did the same.
Immediately, wind rose and clouds surged in the fifth ocean. As the world roared, it was as if a monstrous wave had been stirred up. Once it devoured the four people, a piercing ray of light appeared in the tumbling galaxy above the fifth ocean.
At first glance, that light was a glowing dot. Almost at the instant it appeared, another pillar of light shot out from the depths of the fifth ocean, which was the end of the pillar of light that had shot out from that spot. It charged towards the glowing dot above. Once they connected, the glowing dot shone brightly, and a third pillar of light shot out from within. Its direction … was the fifth stone beside Su Ming!
If the pillar of light was connected to the fifth stone, then there would be three pillars of light in the fifth ocean. They would be connected to each other and form a triangle!
The triangle seemed to be a Rune that would open the path to the Fifth True World and send the possessor of the fifth stone into it.
The flow of time seemed to have become faster at that moment. A day later, the pillar of light in the sky let out a bang. Once it shot through the endless space, it finally descended at the edge of the fifth ocean, right beside Su Ming, on the fifth stone that was shining with the same light.
At the instant the pillar of light collided with the fifth stone, the triangle that looked like a formation immediately appeared above the fifth sea. As it did so, booming sounds echoed in all directions. The loud rumbles were deafening, and the fifth sea turned into a gigantic vortex that spun rapidly as the rumbles echoed.
As it rotated, the triangle formed by the pillars of light was originally standing upright, but at that moment, it slowly laid flat. As it did so, a Relocation power erupted from the fifth stone beside Su Ming. It instantly caused the universe to tremble, and the galaxy looked as if it was about to be torn apart.
At this moment, if one looked down from above, the first thing they would see would be the vortex formed by the fifth sea. The vortex was circular, but within that circle was a triangle!
These three corners were formed by the three beams of light, which were embedded into the vortex. They formed … a complete spell formation!
Su Ming was located on one of the points in the triangle. The sky there was covered by a powerful light at that moment. Under it, booming sounds surged into the sky, and the power of Relocation … was swiftly activated.
The path to the fifth True World was opened because of the Relocation!
Boom!
A power so great that it could make even the Almighties in Life Realm apprehensive erupted from the Rune. When it rushed into the sky, it could be seen that the light that rushed out was also in the shape of a triangle, and it charged into the galaxy's void.
Su Ming's body existed on one of the points. As the power of Relocation charged into it, his body was instantly swept into the Rune, and together with the pillar of light, he was pushed into the boundless void.
Booming sounds shook the sky and earth. The pillar of light continued being pushed forward towards the galaxy above, as if it had turned into a pillar that was used to support the galaxy after it was torn apart.
When the triangular pillar of light appeared, almost all the people in Divine Essence Star Ocean could see it.
The statue of the first God of Berserkers, Lie Shan Xiu, was located in Black Ink Planet. His statue had lifted its head, and no one knew whether it was a coincidence, but it was the pillar of light that had appeared in Divine Essence Star Ocean at that moment. It was something that could be seen even from this place. It was a pillar of light that shot into the sky and led to the fifth True World.
There was a pensive look on Lie Shan Xiu's statue's face. Su Ming's previous understanding had been something else, but if his current self could stand here and see this scene, then he would discover to his shock that his understanding in the past … was not wrong. Instead … he had missed out on the deepest part of the meaning behind it!
In Divine Essence Star Ocean was the place where the Ninth Tribe had been located in the past. It was the place where Tian Xie Zi had lived for a long time, and it was now a wasteland. Tian Xie Zi's statue that had been built there … was also the direction where the pillar of light had risen.
His gaze contained … the same meaning that Su Ming had misunderstood in the past, but if he could see it with his own eyes, his heart would definitely tremble.
The pillar of light lasted for about three months. During that time, it attracted far too many people's gazes. Some of them did not understand it, and some of them understood it.
Time passed. One year … another year …
Flame Fiends' Progenitor continued waiting outside the fifth ocean. He stared at the fifth ocean, which had long since calmed down, and at the space where the pillar of light had disappeared. Vaguely, he felt as if he could still see … Su Ming's figure in the past.
When the tenth year arrived, Flame Fiends' Progenitor sighed and chose to leave. Even though Su Ming had yet to release the seal on his body, all of this was no longer important to Flame Fiends' Progenitor.
He felt a slight reluctance to part with Su Ming. It was as if his hostility towards Su Ming had turned into wariness after the series of interactions they had with each other. Then, it turned into an inexplicable trust, and right then, it turned into a form of nostalgia.
With this nostalgia, he left the fifth ocean and moved through the galaxy. He returned to his homeland, the burning planet, and continued … becoming the Progenitor his people worshiped.
However, when it was dark and quiet, he would lift his head to stare at the dazzling galaxy. In his head, all the things that had happened during that period of time when he was in the fifth kiln and at the edge of the fifth ocean would appear.
"He will come back." Flame Fiends' Progenitor closed his eyes. His body fused with the magma, and he turned into a statue once again. He fell asleep and did not move.
On the seventy-second year after Flame Fiends' Progenitor left, Zhu You Cai also chose to leave the edge of the fifth ocean. Even though Su Ming had yet to tell him how to resurrect his wife, the words' Abyss Builders' had already given Zhu You Cai endless hope.
Even though … he had been thinking about the differences and similarities between his Master's Dao of Longevity and his Dao of Inequity in his heart during the seventy-something years, even though this sort of contemplation caused his heart to ache in pain and made him increasingly agitated, he still persisted in believing … that Su Ming would come back!
When he came back, he would tell him … how to resurrect his wife.
With this determination, Zhu You Cai left quietly and returned to the mountain. He rested in his cave and listened to a woman's soft moans coming faintly from the top of the mountain. He closed his eyes, and tears fell from them. He still held … a medicinal core in his hand.
One hundred years had passed in Divine Essence Star Ocean. Everything had long since returned to peace. Many people no longer paid attention to the things that had happened one hundred years ago. The eternity of the sun, moon, and stars and the changes in the world were always a continuous dream. After one dream, another would come.
However, there were still some people who remembered that one hundred years ago, there was a cultivator who stirred up … a storm that caused the entire Divine Essence Star Ocean to tremble.
Xu Hui had long since met up with the nine old Frail Darknesses. They rode on the warship and brought with them three thousand fearless warriors as well as the people from Morning Dao Sect who belonged to Dao Kong. They left Divine Essence Star Ocean and returned to the region where True Morning Dao World was stationed to keep a lookout over Divine Essence Star Ocean. Over there, they waited quietly for the day Su Ming would return.
Xuan Shang was still struggling in the fifth kiln. He could not find a way out.
Dijiu Mo Sha was still fighting against the other races for the continuation of his tribe, all so that he could find a place for his tribe to stay in for a long period of time.
Everything continued. Without Su Ming, Divine Essence Star Ocean remained the same as before. This gigantic planet would never tilt because of a single person's will, and neither would it change because there was one less person in the universe.
The glory of the past, the heaven-defying rise, the endless catastrophes, all of these were like fleeting clouds. They were either remembered or forgotten. Compared to this eternal starry sky, these insignificant lives were still so insignificant …
However, the legend regarding Su Ming was slowly remembered by many people even though he did not have a name. There was a period of time in the past when there was such a person in Divine Essence Star Ocean. He was a brilliant sun that reached one hundred thousand feet, but he only appeared for a brief moment.
From the barren lands to Western Ring Nebula, from the foreign lands to Black Ink, from Divine Essence Star Ocean to the kiln, from Divine Essence Star Ocean to the fifth ocean … Su Ming left behind … a legend as he walked.
…..
When Su Ming woke up, he saw a dazzling galaxy. It was incredibly unfamiliar, and it did not belong to Divine Essence Star Ocean.
It was dead silent. Not a single sound could be heard, and it was so quiet that it was terrifying. From the distance, the galaxy was not empty. There were plenty of shattered stones floating in it, and it was a mess, as if a war had once ravaged this place for all eternity. What was left behind were the wreckage of war.
All of this was exactly the same as the impression Su Ming had of the fifth True World based on the other people's words and his own analysis.
All of this … was exactly the same as his guesses and how the fifth True World should have existed in his mind.
There was no difference, and there was not a single hint of difference. It was as if Su Ming had come here before. Once he saw it, he would find it unfamiliar at first glance, but when he cast it a second glance, he found it familiar.
This familiarity came from the influence he had on the fifth True World in his mind. It was just like how a person would imagine their future lover in their mind, and when they truly saw them, they would discover … that they or he would look like this.
Su Ming fell silent. He stared at the fifth True World before him, and a glint appeared in his eyes. He charged into the distance, and when he lifted his right hand, a jade slip appeared on his palm.
The first was even better. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Start Point and cast a recommendation vote or a monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
