"Greetings, my lord!" Two men who were several hundreds of feet tall knelt behind Su Ming. These two men were big and built, and the most shocking thing about them was that each of them had three heads on their heads.
Their expressions were ferocious, and when they knelt down, they held a head in their hands. There was no blood on those two heads, and they belonged … to Old You and Ming's Origin Puppets.
Shrill screams of pain reverberated further behind them. The tens of thousands of living beings from the fifth kiln roared at the sky and closed in on Su Ming. All of them knelt down and let out a unified roar.
"Greetings, my lord!" The tens of thousands of living beings all held bloody heads in their hands, and all of them belonged to cultivators from True Sacred Yin World.
Further in the distance were the endless fiendish existences from the fifth kiln. They prostrated themselves on the ground and let out a unified roar.
"Greetings, my lord!"
At the same time, two shrill screams of pain shook the sky and earth. In the distance, five presences that were so powerful that they could make everyone's hearts tremble erupted with a bang. They were presences that belonged to those in Death Realm, and they were filled with the pinnacle power of stillness.
As the presences erupted, five tall figures walked over slowly from the distance.
One of them was an old Fire Spirit. He was dressed in an armor of flames, and his eyes were calm, but there was an ancient air about him. In his hands he held the broken Book of Life and Death as well as the Abyss Activation Brush.
The second person beside him was a thin skeleton. If it was not because of the will-o '-the-wisp shining in his eyes, there was a high possibility that people would think that he was a puppet formed from a corpse.
His limbs were stiff, and when he came over, he did not walk. Instead, he floated forward.
The third person was a man with nine heads. There were nine heads on his neck, one at the front, one at the left, and one at the right, causing him to be able to make all those who saw him suck in sharp breaths in shock.
He held a head in his hand. That head's eyes were open, and there was disbelief in them. It was Old You's head!
The fourth person was an old woman. She held a walking stick, and under her silver hair were silver eyes. There was an ancient air about her, and there was a stillness about her.
The last one was a black-robed young man. His expression was numb, and his eyes were dim. There were hundreds of wounds on his body, and none of them had been left behind before. It was unknown when they had been there, but they had yet to heal.
His expression was aloof, and his eyes were icy cold. He was like a blade that could stab into any existence the master of the fifth kiln pointed at, even himself.
He was also holding a head in his hand. It was Elder Ming.
Almighties in Death Realm might be nearly indestructible … but if five people in Death Realm who were even stronger than them attacked at the same time, along with the suppression from the fifth kiln, then even those in Death Realm … would die. The two old men's true levels of cultivation would be even higher. If it were not for the Book of Life and Death and the Abyss Activation Brush, they would not have truly reached Death Realm.
"Greetings, Master!" The five living beings exuding a terrifying presence walked through the crowd until they surpassed their companions. When they arrived behind Su Ming, they knelt down together and let out buzzing sounds.
At that moment, it was impossible for Su Ming not to be the center of attention as he stood there. It was impossible for him not to become a prodigious sun, and it was impossible for him not to become the most brilliant star in the universe.
Behind him was a strange army of ferocious spirits whose end could not be seen. It would have been fine if it was just those in World Plane Realm kneeling down. Even those in Solar Kalpa Realm kneeling down could be accepted. In fact, those in Mastery Realm kneeling down could be somewhat accepted.
However … the worship from those in Fate Realm, the submission from those in Life Realm, and the bow from those in Death Realm instantly brought Su Ming's presence to an indescribable degree!
All the people from True Sacred Yin World had died, all the people from the Emperor of Abyss' True World had their bodies and souls destroyed, and all these things formed a bloody stench that surrounded the place. In an instant, Su Ming's name seemed to have turned a bloody shade of red!
Zi Long shuddered. The people from the Fourth True World around him found it difficult to continue remaining aloof. All of them looked towards Su Ming, and in their eyes … was zealous!
There was also a wave of respect that had never existed before in their eyes. It was as if what Su Ming had done was an incredibly beautiful banquet to the cultivators from the Fourth True World. In the midst of their infatuation, their zealousness towards Su Ming grew boundless.
The ten million cultivators from Morning Dao Sect fell silent as they watched everything in shock. They could no longer think. In fact, the Sect Masters stared at the densely packed army of living beings filled with endless mighty pressure behind Su Ming with terrified gazes, along with the fifth kiln floating in the distant sky surrounded by a sea of fire.
In the end, all of their gazes simultaneously landed on the five Almighties with terrifying presences behind Su Ming!
The old man in blue had also dispelled the seal from the seawater trapping Sect Masters Ri, Yue, and Xing. His face was slightly pale, but there was excitement on his face. This sort of excitement was something that was rarely seen at his age, but not only had it appeared at that moment, there was also great anticipation in his eyes.
At the instant the seal on the seawater disappeared, shock appeared on Sect Masters Ri, Yue, and Xing's faces. They might have been temporarily sealed, but they could still see everything that had happened outside.
This scene surpassed their imaginations. They had not expected that the strongest aspect of the fifth kiln was not its sea of fire nor was it its indestructible power … but the existence within it that could bring despair to most of its enemies.
"There are no outsiders left …" Su Ming's voice was hoarse. When he spoke, he swept his gaze past the old man in blue before looking at Sect Masters Ri, Yue, and Xing.
Once he finished speaking, Su Ming took a step forward. The endless living beings from the fifth kiln behind him roared simultaneously. Once they stood up, they followed Su Ming forward.
A monstrous presence erupted from the army, causing the pale faces of Sect Masters Ri, Yue, and Xing to immediately change.
"Baldy, open the tunnel to the barrier. I want to meet … the great Dao Chen." Su Ming's voice was hoarse, as if there were blood capillaries in it. When he said the last five words, his heart was in so much pain that it felt as if it had been torn apart.
"Dao Kong, you …" Sect Master Yue of Sect Masters Ri, Yue, and Xing had just spoken when a sigh came from the distant sky. Once it did so, a figure walked out of the air.
Naturally, he was Dao Chen's disciple, Su Ming's elder … Sang!
He did not look old, but there was a feeling of age in his eyes. There was also kindness and heartache hidden within them. He stared at Su Ming. He still had the gift Su Xuan Yi wanted to give him.
But all of this had completely changed due to what had happened previously.
"If you want to come, then come. I'll bring you there. Have them stay here, alright?" Sang stared at Su Ming quietly. When he spoke, his voice carried the same kindness as when he was in Dark Mountain.
A barely noticeable shudder ran through Su Ming's body. He lifted his head and stared at Sang quietly. He did not speak for a long, long time, but with a single move, he charged towards the spot where Sang was.
When he closed in, Sang sighed softly. With a swing of his arm, he swept up Su Ming and disappeared from the place.
Su Ming might have left the Anointment Ceremony in Morning Dao Sect, but the living beings from the fifth kiln stood in the place with aloof expressions. A grim, murderous air spread out from their bodies. They stared at the area around them coldly, and an air of lawlessness was continuously spreading out from their bodies.
The sky beyond the altar where Progenitor Dao Chen isolated himself was warm and sunny. The area around him was lush green, and from the distance, white clouds could be seen. There were even red-crowned cranes dancing in the air. The fragrance of flowers filled the air, and the sounds of a small river flowing through the air sounded like the sounds of nature, causing the place … to be incredibly beautiful.
However, when Su Ming appeared in the place, the fourth grid that spread out from his body resonated with the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The black stillness of death instantly caused the sky to turn dark, and the lush green on the ground to immediately darken.
The black stillness of death from Su Ming contained a great amount of resentment that could destroy the world. It caused the white clouds to turn black, the chirping of birds, and the fragrance of flowers to disappear. It also covered up the flow of the river, causing the place … to look as if it had sunk into hell.
Su Ming stood there. His presence changed the sky, and when Sang saw this, he fell silent.
In Su Ming's eyes was the dullness of stillness, but within that dullness was a madness that could burn his blood and everything. He did not speak and walked towards the altar. With each step he took, the world would become darker. At the instant Su Ming stood on the altar, the world … had already turned completely dark.
Once Su Ming stepped on the altar, he lifted his right foot and stomped on it. With a bang, he disappeared. When he reappeared, he had returned to Su Xuan Yi's isolation grounds, and he saw the person who had his back turned towards him while meditating.
"Why?!" Su Ming stared at the person, and his heart was torn apart again. His body trembled, but there was no roar that shook the sky, no roar of anger. There was only … a murmur that exuded an unfamiliar air.
"Your mother and I … did not know each other before we became partners." Su Xuan Yi was silent. After a long while, he spoke softly. His words echoed in the chamber, and they were filled with nostalgia.
"But once we became partners, she became the only love in my life … When the Fifth True World was destroyed, I personally watched all my people die. I watched your grandfather and grandmother's bodies die. I watched all my brothers and sisters laugh shrilly and broken-hearted. I watched all my people … self-destruct without regard for anything else so that I could leave and protect the glory of the Abyss Builders!
"I watched these things … watched … until I brought her and you, who had yet to be born, to Divine Essence Star Ocean with the fifth kiln in agony.
"When I came to Divine Essence Star Ocean, a hint of madness appeared in my life. I wanted revenge, I wanted to destroy everything, I wanted to make the Abyss Builders rise to power once more!
"Finally, I found a way to break your Curse, but just as this method was about to become reality, Dao Chen brought the cultivators of this Expanse Cosmos to this place …
"During that battle, your mother died, and during that battle … I Possessed Dao Chen and became Dao Chen!
"You asked where I was when you needed me. I was here, and I watched over you quietly. I was here, because after I Possessed Dao Chen, I fought against the Sublime Paragon of this Expanse Cosmos. No one knew about this battle, because it happened in this chamber!" Su Xuan Yi's voice echoed in the chamber intensely.
