"Perhaps this is something he doesn't know either," Su Ming mumbled.
"Perhaps this is just my misunderstanding. This is just my opinion. In truth, the Seed of Life Extermination will be like this as it grows, and once it becomes complete, everything will change. That must be it." Su Ming fell silent. He forced down the anguish and puzzlement in his heart.
In silence, the intense pain from his Nascent Divinity continued assaulting him. Su Ming was forced to focus his attention on his Nascent Divinity again. This time, he did not look at the Seed of Life Extermination. Perhaps he had intentionally ignored it, or perhaps he did not want to think about this problem at a deeper level. He chose to observe the Abyss Gate.
The Abyss Gate that had devoured a large amount of his life force, countless cultivators, and planets had become the nourishment that allowed Su Ming's Nascent Divinity to be indestructible in the world in the ocean of light.
He stared at the Abyss Gate, at the gate formed by crystals. It gave off a feeling that it was incredibly fragile, as if it could be crushed with the slightest pinch.
It was as if there was a difference between heaven and earth between the doors of the poor in the mortal world and those with illustrious statuses and the power of the royal family.
It was not a difference in growth, but a difference in their foundations.
Su Ming stared at his rather shabby Abyss Gate and stared at it quietly.
When time passed, Su Ming averted his gaze and looked at the ocean of light around him. He could not move his body, because if he did, the pain would be several thousand times stronger than before, because he could already tell that the Aura of Abyss spreading out from his Abyss Gate was gradually diminishing.
Once the Aura of Abyss no longer spread out, his Nascent Divinity would not be able to continue healing itself, and what awaited him would be his Nascent Divinity instantly shattering.
And if he moved his Nascent Divinity, it would speed up the release of the Aura of Abyss, which would speed up the process of his Nascent Divinity shattering.
'Perhaps … I will truly have to stay here for all eternity. Bald crane, you're too late …' Su Ming believed that the bald crane would come, but perhaps it would head in another direction in the vast ocean of light.
At that moment, Su Ming was not afraid of death. He only felt slight regret. He regretted that he had not managed to save Yu Xuan, that he had not found his senior brothers, and that he could not fulfill his wish of having a home.
These regrets turned into a sigh from Su Ming. He lay in the ocean of light and ignored the Aura of Abyss spreading out from his body. He also ignored the impression of death, because he suddenly realized that the light in this place … was actually very beautiful.
This beautiful light was something that could not be seen in the sky. Only in this place could one see this indescribable light.
He ignored the afterlife and focused all his attention on the light here. He appreciated the beauty of the last moment he could see in his life before his primordial spirit disappeared.
As he watched, Su Ming forgot about his current condition. He seemed to have become a part of the endless light, as if he had fused with them and was swimming freely in the world.
"The light I can see and the wind I can feel form the ocean …" Su Ming mumbled. His concentration caused him to sink into a strange state at the moment when he ignored his life and death.
In this strange state, Su Ming felt as if he had returned to the land of Berserkers all those years ago. He had gained an epiphany while he was clearing his mind on the ninth summit. During that epiphany, he had understood how to clear his mind with pictures, as well as the change of heart.
This time, as he looked at the light, he sank into the same state of epiphany. However, this time, he was not thinking about the change of heart, but the magnificence and beauty of the ocean of light.
Perhaps only when a person was about to die and had completely forgotten about the shadow of death would he be able to wholeheartedly see the beauty of the light.
Perhaps it was because Su Ming knew that he would not be able to look at it for much longer, which was why he treasured even the slightest bit of time.
Time trickled by. As the ocean of light tumbled about, Su Ming was swept further and further away. He saw more light, and there was no end to it. It was as if his body had already been surrounded by light.
He did not notice that the Aura of Abyss spreading out from the Abyss Gate in his body had become increasingly sparse. It was as if before long, there would no longer be any Aura of Abyss left to nourish it.
His Nascent Divinity was being torn apart even more severely as the ocean of light tumbled about.
"What a strange light. Once it fused with the wind, it turned into an ocean. It actually has a power that can crush everything …" As Su Ming mumbled, he saw a hint of black flash in the endless light. He was familiar with that light. It was the Light of Extreme Darkness.
"Then … how was light created?" Su Ming, who had forgotten about his Nascent Divinity, was immersed in that strange state. He stared at the endless light around him, and this question formed in his head.
He wanted to know the answer. He wanted to know how light appeared, why there was such endless light in this place, why it formed an ocean, and why it possessed such a shocking power that could destroy everything.
Before he came into contact with the Light of Extreme Darkness, Su Ming did not believe that light was a form of power. It was something that could be seen and could not be lacking in the area. However, the appearance of the Light of Extreme Darkness in Morning Dao Sect's trial grounds overturned Su Ming's thoughts. He gradually accepted … the idea that light was a form of power.
At that moment, when Su Ming ignored his life and death and was in a strange state, he had a feeling as if he had turned into light. The black Light of Extreme Darkness shining among the countless rays of light seemed to have taken away the will that remained in his Nascent Divinity, causing Su Ming to feel … as if he had become a part of the light beyond the universe.
He seemed to have turned into the Light of Extreme Darkness and swam about in all sorts of light. As he thought about it, the light seemed to be continuously magnified in his eyes. With his third eye at its peak, once it magnified an unknown number of times, what he saw … was no longer light.
Instead, he saw a vast expanse of space. There were two huge runic symbols there. They were not drawn by man, but seemed to have been born on their own in the universe. They looked like runic symbols, but they were not. They were so complicated that they were definitely not something a cultivator could create or copy.
Su Ming saw the two runic symbols crash into each other and immediately fuse together. The fusion was incredibly perfect, and during the process, Su Ming saw the complexity of the runic symbol rise swiftly. It was as if the runic symbol Su Ming had seen previously was a Brand of the lowest level, and as they fused together, the runic symbol was swiftly climbing to a higher level.
As the runic symbol evolved from the lowest to the highest, wisps of power that Su Ming could not see but could sense, which terrified him, rushed out from the air and fused into the runic symbol, as if they had turned into the nourishment it needed in the process of changing from the lowest to the highest.
When the runic symbol's evolution reached its peak and it absorbed an almost endless amount of power from the area, Su Ming suddenly saw the indescribably complicated runic symbol suddenly reverse. It was no longer evolving, but was swiftly changing from a higher level to a lower one. No power from space fused into the runic symbol. Instead, when the runic symbol changed from a higher level to a lower level, an indescribably terrifying power was released from within it.
As it was released … light appeared!
When Su Ming saw this, his heart trembled violently. He had a vague feeling that he had come to understand something, but the simplicity that existed in the complexity of the runic symbol caused Su Ming's epiphany to be lacking something. He lacked a point that could connect him to it.
'Breathing! It's breathing!' Su Ming's will trembled. During that instant, he found that point — breathing. To Su Ming, this scene was the same as him breathing.
He first needed to suck in a breath. This action was the runic symbol absorbing a large amount of the power of space around it when it evolved from a lower level to a higher level. When it reached its peak, exhaling was the same as releasing the power of space it had absorbed, and then … it would turn into light!
At the instant Su Ming understood this, a bang instantly rang out in his head. At the same time, since the Abyss Gate no longer released the Aura of Abyss, his Nascent Divinity was immediately torn apart in the ocean of light.
Yet at the instant his Nascent Divinity was torn apart, Su Ming closed his eyes and sucked in a deep breath. The light in this place caused his Nascent Divinity to freeze for a moment. At the instant Su Ming exhaled, his Nascent Divinity swiftly recovered, and a powerful ray of light spread out from within it.
Su Ming's Nascent Divinity trembled. His eyes flew open, and understanding appeared in them.
'There's no wind here! Light can form an ocean because it is a form of power, and it can turn into waves of light because this power can be released. When it releases light, it also releases a power that can destroy everything!
'Light … This is light!' Su Ming's Nascent Divinity shone with a light that reached one hundred thousand feet. As it moved in the ocean of light, it completely fused together with the light in the world.
A brilliant light shone in his eyes. He sucked in a deep breath again, and immediately, booming sounds came from within his Nascent Divinity. Two vortexes appeared, and within them were the complicated runic symbols Su Ming had seen before. As he sucked in a breath, the two runic symbols fused together in his body. Immediately, a large amount of the power of space seemed to turn into the aura Su Ming sucked in, causing the fused runic symbol in his body to complete its leap from a lower level to a higher level. Then, as it reversed, it released a powerful light.
Su Ming's breathing became increasingly rapid. As the runic symbol continued leaping and reversing, the light it released became stronger. It spread to one thousand feet, ten thousand feet, one hundred thousand feet … In just a short dozen something breaths, Su Ming threw his head back and roared. The light from his body had already spread to hundreds of thousands of feet in every direction.
At that moment, Su Ming was the ocean of light. The light he released had already become an ocean. All the light in it was chased away, and only Su Ming's light remained. It was … the Light of Extreme Darkness!
"After this Art is Mountain Shifter, it will be Ocean Remover!" At the instant Su Ming's voice echoed in the air, he leaped up. From the distance, he looked like an ocean of light rising into the sky. His presence was great, and it shook the entire area!
Once he rose into the sky with the ocean of light, Su Ming pushed down fiercely. The air roared, and a loud bang that broke the silence in the world of the ocean of light, a rare sight!
