When the bald crane's piercing voice reverberated in the air, a huge storm that had never been seen before raged in Su Ming's heart. He could not believe all of this, and it was even more difficult for him to believe it. In fact, in the depths of his heart, he did not want to believe it.
He did not want to believe that his physical body … The physical body he had always thought belonged to him was a malicious corpse created from one billion corpses!
He did not want to believe that Su Xuan Yi did not know about all of this. He did not want to believe … that his real physical body would be like this!
This completely overturned all of Su Ming's previous memories and reversed all of his thoughts. Even with Su Ming's mental fortitude and his wisdom, he was still at a loss at that instant.
There was an unprecedented anguish, sadness, and an indescribable pain in his heart. It was as if his heart had been dug out, and all of his knowledge had been turned upside down along with the world.
Ever since he learned that he was just a soul and that his real physical body was in the land of the Immortals, Su Ming had practically made finding his physical body a dream in his life.
Yet now … when he was so close to his real physical body that he had never been before, the bald crane's words were like a blow to his head, causing his heart to tremble. It made him … feel as if his soul and Nascent Divinity were being forcefully torn apart …
"Why … Why..?" Su Ming mumbled.
"Hurry up and leave! Damn it! Su Ming, hurry up and leave this damn physical body! This isn't your body! This is a huge trap created by someone! Hurry up and leave!" the bald crane screamed shrilly, and an anxiety and madness that had never appeared before could be heard in its voice.
However, Su Ming acted as if he did not hear it. He did not leave, because he did not believe in all of this. He did not believe that his real physical body was just an illusion and that Dark Mountain was fake. This was an incredibly severe blow to Su Ming, and as time passed by, the wound that was torn apart by the blow had slowly healed, but now …
'If even my real physical body is fake, then what else is real in this world..? Dark Mountain is fake, Bai Ling's love is fake, and my childhood playmates are also fake. What is real..? What is real?! ' Su Ming's Nascent Divinity trembled. He could not believe all of this. He … could not withstand the strongest blow that could even surpass Dark Mountain's!
However, he could clearly sense the unfamiliarity hidden beneath the familiarity in his real physical body. That familiarity seemed to have been intentionally created by someone, and it had even tampered with Su Ming's memories, causing him to remain firm and unwavering. In fact, he had never doubted whether this physical body … truly belonged to him!
"Why … Why is all of this happening!!!" Su Ming's Nascent Divinity boiled. His divine sense ignored the bald crane's shrill and crazed warnings and fused into his real physical body without regard for anything else. He wanted to search for an answer that would change his previous impression and make him understand that all of this was not fake and that this was indeed his physical body.
Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that he had to find Su Ming's answer. He had to find an answer that would allow him to be deceived, and he would even be willing to be deceived.
However, as Su Ming's divine sense fused into his real physical body and touched the core of it, a ripple that he could not suppress swiftly rose up in his divine sense … because he could clearly sense the unfamiliarity hidden beneath the familiarity in the core of the physical body.
In fact, Su Ming even found the source of that familiarity. It was a drop of blood at the core of his real physical body. It was this drop of blood that filled the entire physical body, causing Su Ming to be so familiar with it.
Su Ming laughed brokenly. With his wisdom, there was no way he would not understand the answer to all of this, but this answer was too cruel, so cruel that even Su Ming could not bear it. At that instant … he felt as if his heart had already died, and he was filled with an indescribable fatigue.
He had been far too tired in his life. If he was just tired, that would have been fine, but the fake scenes that had happened one after another had caused Su Ming's fatigue to reach its peak. If it was not because he still had hope for his mother, if it was not because he still had Su Xuan Yi in his heart, even if he did not acknowledge him, if it was not because he still needed to find his real physical body … then he would have closed his eyes a long time ago and fallen into an eternal sleep.
Yet at that moment, his thoughts were overturned, his dreams shattered, and everything that was fake caused Su Ming to feel as if he was crying in his anguish. This was the cry of someone without a physical body. It was his Nascent Divinity and his soul crying.
It was the grief of his soul that had been hidden in Su Ming's body for countless years. At that moment, Su Ming was like the most miserable person in the world, because his life seemed to no longer have any reality.
Deep bewilderment, anguish, and sorrow turned into self-deprecation. As he mocked himself, he felt as if his life was being mocked and suppressed, and the flames of his life grew dimmer.
For the first time in his life … he chose to run away … chose to close his eyes … chose to accept his fate …
He accepted it. If all of this was fake, then he would accept it. If he accepted his fate, then he would not be so tired, and he would be able to end his laughable life. Su Ming accepted it …
Even if his level of cultivation was extraordinary, even if his will was firm, even if he had gone through many things that a normal person would never have to go through, he was still a person, a normal person. He was a person who could be sad and hurt.
"Damn it, Su Ming, do you want to die?! Are you willing to die here?! Are you willing to give up on Yu Xuan?! In fact, you're willing to not be able to find your senior brothers?! Are you willing to do this?! " There was an anxiety and sorrow in the bald crane's voice that had never appeared before. It had followed Su Ming all the way and gone through all sorts of obstacles with him. They had gone through all sorts of dangers, but now, at that instant, it could clearly sense Su Ming's will to die.
This was not a will to die due to injuries. This was the death of his soul. It was a thick aura of death that spread out from his entire body once he no longer had any desire to live.
This will to die terrified the bald crane. It made it seem to remember that there was once a person who was incredibly important to it. In the end, as the will to die filled the bald crane, it could only watch helplessly as that person's consciousness gradually disappeared, and gradually … he turned into a statue.
He ended his life. He ended all signs of his existence in the world. He ended … the brand of his life.
"Su Ming, is it worth it for you to do this? Is it worth it? If you die here, if you want to die, then darn it all, you can fight to the death with your enemies. I'll fight to the death with you!
"But you actually gave up on your life here! You actually gave up on everything! Have you forgotten Yu Xuan?!"
Su Ming's life, which was gradually fading away, seemed to have throbbed at that instant.
"Without you, who will protect Yu Xuan? That damn Su Xuan! How will he use Yu Xuan?! Do you know what she will do without you?! I believe that she will die as well, and she will join you!"
At that moment, Su Ming's heart started throbbing again.
"Have you forgotten about third senior brother? Hu Zi? If he learns that you died, he will be so sad! He will go mad! He will reverse the world and create a dream with you in it!
"Because you are his youngest junior brother!
"Have you forgotten about second senior brother? Darn it all, Su Ming, you have to know what will happen to second senior brother if you die! He will go mad, he will be sad, and this will become the greatest pain in his life!
"Because you are his youngest junior brother!
"Have you forgotten about eldest senior brother? He no longer has a head! Do you want him to lose his heart because of you?!
"Su Ming, you damn b * stard! Don't you want to know the answer to all of this? Don't you want to find the person who has been manipulating you your entire life?! You shouldn't die now! You coward! You coward! You gave up on them, and you gave up on me! Y-y-you … If you really want to die, then I'll die with you!" The bald crane screeched. Deep grief appeared in its eyes. Its words continued traveling outwards, and Su Ming's heart started throbbing even faster.
Then … his will to die was instantly replaced by a powerful wave of madness. It was replaced by a will that hated the universe, the earth, and everything in the universe!
"That's right, that's it! I have to know the truth behind all of this! I have to kill! I have to kill until the universe turns crimson red! I have to kill until I become a Supreme of Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos! I have to kill until I become a madness that will make even Saint Defier and Dark Dawn wary and retreat!
"Su Ming, you … can't die!"
Su Ming's Nascent Divinity descended into complete madness at that moment. His divine sense instantly roared like a tidal wave, and his will to die was replaced by madness. His closed eyes were supported by a will that made him feel as if he had been reborn, and he opened them swiftly.
His soul felt as if it had been reborn from fire at that moment. It seemed to have awakened, and at that moment … it felt as if it had gone through a metamorphosis in hell!
Intense pain existed in Su Ming's soul, causing his madness to become even stronger. He no longer cared about the pain of his soul being torn apart. Since he had already opened his eyes, then he would rise to power through the pain.
During that instant, Su Ming saw his soul shatter under the intense pain of it being torn apart. As it shattered, scenes that seemed to be hidden in his soul and that he would never see in his life appeared before Su Ming's eyes along with the intense pain.
He saw a galaxy filled with chaos. He saw countless races fighting against each other in a frenzy. He saw an endless amount of corpses, hundreds of people exuding the presence of those in Life Realm, and some of them even exuded the mighty pressure of those in Death Realm. They surrounded a black-haired middle-aged man.
The man held a baby in one hand and a long blade in the other. There were hundreds of corpses around him, and each of them were powerful warriors who were above Life Realm when they were alive. In fact, there were even some in Death Realm!
The middle-aged man had an awe-inspiring righteousness about him, as well as a will that would not make him submit even if the world collapsed. As he fought, he threw his head back and laughed long and hard at the sky. There were already countless wounds on his body, and his cultivation base was swiftly weakening. However, his presence was filled with a raging fighting spirit! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
