"Grandpa Light of Light, please spare me. Just pretend that I … um, just pretend that I, your grandson, am nothing. Let me go. It's a pity that I have to take care of my parents and children. Y-y-you … Damn it, you're a Light of Light, a Light of Light that has no consciousness. It's useless even if you beg for mercy. "As the bald crane screamed, its body shuddered. It was enveloped by a large ball of the Light of Extreme Darkness, and as Su Ming moved forward, its voice continued traveling outwards.
"Damn it, why is there a Light of Light here? I was already very careful to avoid it. I noticed that the closest Light of Light was very far away. There was no Light of Light in the area where I was just now.
"Little boy Su, you've really caused my death. Farewell, my crystals. It's a pity that I haven't gathered enough. I only have a small amount. It's a pity that my great wish of being able to buy an entire True World hasn't been fulfilled yet …" As the bald crane wailed, Su Ming had already brought it to the spot where the soul thread was. With just one glance, he saw that the soul thread was attached to a wisp of milky white light. That light was rather strange. It was not harmful and could instead nourish the Nascent Divinity, which was why the soul thread was only about to dissipate, or else it would have crumbled a long time ago.
Clearly, the soul thread recognized the milky white light, which was why it had thought of this method.
As he stared at the soul thread, a hint of surprise appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He lifted his right hand and tapped the milky white light slightly. Immediately, a memory rose in his heart. It was the memory of the milky white light, and in it, Su Ming saw that the soul thread had appeared a month ago.
It had arrived at the exact same time as Su Ming.
"Hmm? What are you doing, Light of Light? You actually know how to lift your hand? Ah, I remember now. You can actually move on your own. You intentionally appeared in front of me just now. That's impossible. Light of Light doesn't have consciousness, so how could it move? "The bald crane stared at Su Ming, who was enveloped by the Light of Extreme Darkness, in slight disbelief.
Su Ming flicked his right hand, and the milky white light immediately distorted, causing the soul thread to bounce off. Then, Su Ming grabbed it.
"You … You … You actually know how to do this?! You have consciousness! Heavens, you have consciousness!" The bald crane shouted loudly, and its voice did not stop. Su Ming held the soul thread in his right hand and swung his left hand. Immediately, a crystal appeared with a whoosh and flew towards the bald crane.
The bald crane almost instinctively grabbed it and placed it in its mouth to take a huge bite. Once it did so, it instantly beamed with joy. In fact, it did not matter whether it was its bald tail or butt, all of them swayed a few times.
Su Ming pinched the soul thread. It struggled weakly in his hand, but under the Light of Extreme Darkness, its struggles were powerless. Su Ming's divine sense that contained the Light of Extreme Darkness fused into the soul thread, and when it could no longer fight back, it charged into its soul.
During that instant, Su Ming saw the soul strand's memories, and a few pictures immediately appeared in his head.
The first scene was that of an unfamiliar sky. A black-robed man strode down from a tall mountain peak, then dropped down. As soon as he touched the ground, he vanished without a trace.
The second scene was also that of the black-robed man standing beyond a huge pillar of light. Beside him was Bai Ling, who made Su Ming's heart clench in pain. There was also an old man whom Su Ming immediately recognized as Di Tian with just one glance.
In fact, Su Ming had heard most of their conversation.
The third scene was that of the black-robed man sitting in the pillar of light and executing the plan to replace the Ancient God. Under his control, the Ancient God self-destructed.
The scenes disappeared, and the soul thread completely shattered in Su Ming's palm.
'The plan to replace the Ancient God … This soul thread was prepared for Possession. If I hadn't stepped into the world beyond the universe, then once the Ancient God self-destructed, it would have crawled into my body and Possessed me.' A hint of derision appeared in Su Ming's eyes.
'By the looks of it, the three Hidden Dynasts, Dao Hua, and Dao Lin have all been successfully Possessed and have become members of the Immortals' Union. This soul thread … is a portion of the black-robed man's soul.
'With just a portion of his soul, he managed to do this. It's a telling sign that his level of cultivation is incredibly great.
'Sublime Paragon Di Tian … So what he wants to do in my physical body is a Life Change Art. He wants to use my real physical body to change everything about himself with the help of Saint Defier's camp so that he can become an Abyss Builder!' A freezing glare shone in Su Ming's eyes.
'Three months, huh … I've already been here for more than a month. I should still be able to make it in time!' Su Ming closed his eyes, and a myriad of thoughts raced in his head. This was a chance … a chance to seize back his real physical body!
As Su Ming thought about it, the bald crane had already put away the crystals. It stared at Su Ming, who was enveloped in black light, and felt slightly anxious. At that moment, it let out a fake cough, and an obsequious expression appeared on its face.
"Um … as the only sentient Lord Origin of Light in the world in the sea of light, don't you think that you need a great bald crane who is as handsome, knowledgeable, efficient, never drags his feet when doing things, smart, wise, kind, and has a great heart like me?
"Let me be your follower … I …" As the bald crane spoke nervously, Su Ming opened his eyes. With a smile that the bald crane could not see, he sized up the bald crane.
"Kind?" Su Ming asked slowly. His voice traveled through the Light of Extreme Darkness, and when the bald crane heard it, it felt as if there was a cold and sinister air to it. It shuddered, but its spirits lifted.
"That's right. I'm a kind person. When I see someone in need, I will go up and touch them. When I see someone die, I will cry and help bury them. When I see a child, I will be happy. I …" the bald crane quickly said.
"You will touch a storage bag to see how many crystals are in it. You will search for crystals from a corpse because you think that children are easier to deceive and that you can trick them into giving you crystals," Su Ming said faintly.
His words instantly stunned the bald crane.
"Um … Do we know each other? Y-y-you … Could it be that you are … "
Su Ming smiled. The Light of Extreme Darkness around him disappeared to reveal his Nascent Divinity. He looked at the bald crane with a smile.
The bald crane covered its chest and screamed in pain. It took a few steps back, and anger appeared on its face. It lifted its bald claw and pointed at Su Ming. Extreme sadness appeared on its face.
"Su Ming! I worked so hard in vain! I risked my life and was even prepared to die! I sacrificed a large number of crystals and spent hundreds of thousands, no, millions of years of my life to come here to find you! Y-y-you … How could you … I'm so sad! I was deceived! Darn it all, I was bullied! "
The bald crane wailed and blinked rapidly before falling to the ground and rolling about.
Su Ming lifted his right hand, and a crystal flew up with a slap to the bald crane. Once the bald crane caught it, it instantly beamed with joy, but it immediately suppressed it and started screaming.
"You want to make up for it with just one crystal?! This is an insult to me! I, the bald crane, will definitely not bend my back for just one crystal, I …"
With a slap, another crystal fell. The bald crane stared at the crystal falling in front of it with a dumbfounded expression, and a smile appeared on its face again. This time, no matter how it tried to suppress its excitement, it could not help but reveal its excitement.
Especially …
With a slap, the third crystal fell, then the fourth. When the fifth crystal fell, the bald crane immediately stopped rolling about. It grabbed all the crystals and let out a fake cough.
"Yes, I forgive …"
With a slap, the sixth crystal fell.
"You didn't do anything wrong. Darn it all, Mister Su, what you did previously was absolutely right …"
With a slap, the seventh crystal fell.
"One more time. Should we do what we did just now again?" The bald crane was so excited that its entire body trembled, and it made this suggestion that made it happy just thinking about it.
Su Ming stared at the bald crane, and a smile appeared on his face. He had long since treated the bald crane as a friend, but he could not let this friend of his be too arrogant, or else the scene from Black Ink Planet would constantly repeat itself.
"Alright, it's time for us to leave. We have more important things to do." Su Ming lifted his head and stared at the endless ocean of light. A dark light shone in his eyes, and with a swing of his arm, he swept up the bald crane and charged into the distance.
Several days later, in the territory of the Immortals' Union in True Morning Dao World was an empty planet near the core of the Immortals' territory. Distortions appeared in space, and when the distortions disappeared, a ball of black light shone.
When Su Ming and the bald crane walked out of it, the light dissipated to reveal Su Ming, who was dressed in a black robe, had a head full of black hair, and had a profound gaze. He stood in the galaxy, looking as if he had been reborn from the ashes. His presence was still that of those in Mastery Realm, but he, who had turned into the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness and created the Ocean Remover Art, had become several times stronger than before.
"Nothing in space or beyond the universe can stop me from returning to this place. I … have returned," Su Ming mumbled. At that moment, he no longer looked like Dao Kong, but had turned into an unfamiliar face.
That unfamiliar face had been created by Su Ming, because at that moment, he did not have a physical body, but a Nascent Divinity.
However, even if it was just a Nascent Divinity, he could still erupt with a shocking power.
"Do you want to snatch back your real physical body in the Immortals' Union? Darn it all, let's go. You snatch back your physical body, and I'll go gather crystals," the bald crane said excitedly. The bald crane spoke excitedly by the side. In the midst of its excitement, it started shuddering, and its arrogant cries echoed in the air.
"If I enter the Immortals' Union from here, with my current level of cultivation, the possibility of me seizing back my physical body isn't high," Su Ming said faintly.
"Then what should we do?" The bald crane was stunned.
"Have the people from the Immortals' Union and the people from Saint Defier suppress us, or have Di Tian personally bring us in." A malicious smile appeared on Su Ming's face.
The bald crane sized up Su Ming in surprise, then began to grumble in its heart. 'Could it be that Su Ming has become an idiot after he became the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness?'
It suddenly became slightly worried about what would happen to the idiotic Su Ming in the future …
While the bald crane was worried, dark light shone in Su Ming's eyes. The Light of Extreme Darkness gradually appeared on his body. It grew stronger, and in an instant, it covered the entire galaxy, filling it with the Light of Extreme Darkness.
"The Light of Extreme Darkness is a powerful power of light. Anyone who sees it will be tempted …"
