A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He cast a scrutinizing glance at the dark light Old Monster Wen had flung out of his sleeve. It surrounded him, causing a presence that others might not be able to notice, but Su Ming could sense it clearly!
"The presence of an Ancient God. Interesting." Su Ming swung his arm and pointed at space with his right hand. With it, the galaxy shuddered. The space where Old Monster Wen was instantly looked as if it had collapsed, as if it had been frozen. At the same time, black light shone in the frozen galaxy. When Su Ming executed the Light of Extreme Darkness, its power was much stronger than when he had used it with the bald crane.
With a whoosh, Old Monster Wen let out a shrill scream of pain. He retreated swiftly, but he felt as if he had sunk into mud. In panic, he lifted his right hand and swung it outwards. With a roar, a huge object flew out of his storage bag.
It was … a finger!
A finger that was hundreds of feet big and filled with an ancient air appeared. At the instant it appeared, it seemed to be controlled by the old man, and it pointed at space and the Light of Extreme Darkness.
Booming sounds echoed in space, and the frozen space shattered. Even some of the Light of Extreme Darkness dissipated, revealing a gap. The old man moved in a flash, intending to escape.
"The Ancient God's finger!" Su Ming's pupils shrank. This time, he did not hesitate. With a single move, he instantly appeared in front of the old man and lifted his right hand to strike him.
Old Monster Wen roared and formed a seal with his hands before coughing up a mouthful of blood. It fused with the Ancient God's finger, causing it to hum. Its aura grew exponentially, and like a huge rod, it charged towards Su Ming with loud bangs.
At the same time, a wave of pure Ancient God power erupted from the finger and charged towards Su Ming. Even if the Ancient God was dead, the power left in the finger was enough to shock an Almighty in Mastery Realm so much that he would not dare to receive it head on.
However, Su Ming's expression was calm. At the instant the Ancient God's finger closed in on him, he flipped his right hand over and used the back of his hand to touch it. He naturally took a few steps back, then flipped his right hand over again, as if he had borrowed the old man's power and fused it into his palm. With his cultivation base, he borrowed the old man's power and struck forward.
Deafening booming sounds reverberated in the air. The old man coughed up blood and staggered thousands of feet backwards. His face was pale, and when he looked at Su Ming, he suddenly shuddered.
He saw Su Ming not chasing after him, but once he struck the Ancient God's finger, the huge finger disappeared without a trace, as if he had forcefully put it away. At that moment, he was looking at the old man with the ghost of a smile on his face, and there was a cold, as well as malice.
"Senior, please calm down. Please listen to what I have to say. I know the location of a giant's carcass from the Immortals' Union. It's a pity that my level of cultivation isn't high enough, so I can only take a finger. That's why I've been searching for people with incredibly powerful divine thoughts in hopes of obtaining the giant's carcass.
"When I passed by this place several months ago, I noticed the ripples of your cultivation base on the planet, which was why I wanted to test your level of cultivation. My original intention was to work together with you.
"As for you, you might be careful when you train, but my divine sense is different from that of a normal person. I don't check the ripples of my cultivation base, but can sense the flames of life in this galaxy, which is why I was able to notice your existence."
The old man quickly told Su Ming everything. He did not dare to hide anything from Su Ming. Su Ming's strength made him incredibly regret provoking him. If he still hid anything, he would definitely die without a grave.
"Senior, if you need me, I can lead the way to the giant's corpse and use this to atone for my crimes. I hope that you will give me this chance so that I can make up for the fear I caused you." The old man's face was pale, and his heart was filled with anxiety as he bowed deeply towards Su Ming.
Su Ming cast the old man a glance, but did not speak. Instead, he turned around and stared at the pit in which he had isolated himself. With a complicated look in his eyes, he stared at the spot where Bai Feng had been standing outside the pit.
That spot was empty. Clearly, Bai Feng had died a long time ago, and her corpse had already turned into dust.
A dream in Dark Mountain, a promise made in the snow, and a sigh that had circulated for one thousand years had come to an end at that moment. Su Ming sighed softly, and the complicated look on his face disappeared.
He had gone through nine cycles of life and death, and he could be considered to have fulfilled the promise made in the past. Their relationship could also be considered to have come to a perfect end. Since that was the case, Su Ming would not force himself to cling to anything. The grudge between him and Bai Feng had also come to an end.
He lifted his right hand, and the white ring immediately approached him with a hum. As it shrank, it wrapped itself around Su Ming's finger and turned into a real ring. A feeling that he could not be separated from the ring grew in Su Ming's heart. There was fate between him and the ring. It was a knot in the cycle of life and death, and no one could undo it.
The thing that made the knot become eternal was the ring's spirit. Perhaps it was different from before, because … Bai Ling's soul was contained within it.
He swung his arm, and a black robe appeared on Su Ming's body. It enveloped him, causing others to be unable to see his face. They could only see … a black-robed person.
Almost at the instant Su Ming put on the black robe, Miao Feng's pupils shrank. He sucked in a sharp breath, and shock appeared in his eyes again. As a member of the Immortals' Union, there was no way he would not recognize a black-robed person like Su Ming.
"I, Miao Feng of the Will Tower Race of the Immortals' Union, greet my lord and Grand Immortal!"
There was a slightly complicated look on the young man's face, but he soon lowered his head and bowed respectfully to Su Ming.
"I, Dao Zhong of the branch family of Morning Dao Sect, greet my lord and Grand Immortal!"
"I, Si Ma Yu of the Rune Puppet Sect of the Immortals' Union, greet my lord and Grand Immortal Zhang Dao!" When Chen Wen and his wife saw Su Ming, a dazed look appeared on their faces. They cast each other a glance, then lowered their heads in anguish and bowed sincerely to him.
They … had met Zhang Ji Dao before, which was why the way they greeted him was different from the others. They could tell clearly that the black-robed people who had appeared in the Immortals' Union were all subordinates of the person before them.
They might have only seen the black-robed person in the past and could not see his face, which was why it was difficult for them to recognize him. However, the mighty pressure coming from Su Ming's body was the exact same as the black-robed Zhang Dao who even the higher ups of the Immortals' Union had to be polite to.
In midair, Old Monster Wen's face turned even paler. As he stared at the black-robed Su Ming, he groaned in his heart. He had not expected that Su Ming would be an Immortal from the First World, and he had even said that he wanted the giant's corpse, which was also an Immortal from the First World.
"How did you walk in the whirlwind?" The black-robed Su Ming asked hoarsely. At that moment, an ancient presence exuded from his body. There was a mysteriousness about him, causing all those who saw him to feel their hearts tremble.
"Junior... Junior's Divine Sense is different from others," Old Eccentric Wen said, his expression one of extreme respect. "That's why... I can see the trajectory of the destructive power in the hurricane. That's why I can walk through the hurricane and avoid the destructive power. Although it's slow, it's still better than being trapped in one place."
"Come in. Lead the way." Su Ming swung his arm, and a faint white ripple spread out from his ring to surround an area of three hundred feet around him.
Old Monster Wen hesitated in his heart, but he did not dare to think too much about it. He braced himself and stepped into the area of three hundred feet around Su Ming. Then, he bowed to Miao Feng and the other three, who had hostile expressions on their faces. Only then did he point the way in a low voice.
A glint shone in Su Ming's eyes, which were hidden under the black robe. Immediately, the white ripple charged forward. When it passed by the thirteen meteors, Su Ming put them away. With a loud whoosh, the white ripple charged towards the whirlwind. Wherever it went, the whirlwind would tumble backwards. Even the destructive power of the World within it would scatter when it touched the ripple.
"How many survivors like you are there in True Morning Dao World?" Su Ming asked hoarsely while sitting in the white ripple.
Miao Feng and the other three were silent for a moment before Chen Wen, who was skilled in Runes, said in a low voice, "We can only stay in a room. We can't go too far away. Fellow Daoist Wen, you should know the details."
Miao Feng and the other three were silent for a moment before Chen Wen, who was skilled in Runes, said softly, "Only one in a thousand can survive … I've gone to many places over the past ten months, but I've only seen two rather large gathering spots. The others are scattered in groups of three to five … Many of them died in the disaster and the chaos that followed after it," Old Monster Wen said softly.
"The Immortals' Union has already been reduced to ruins. All the entrances to Morning Dao Sect have collapsed. I don't know what's going on inside, but I can sense a great wave of death from the divine sense that has entered the place. Perhaps … a drastic change has also happened in Morning Dao Sect …" Old Monster Wen cast Su Ming a glance and told him everything he knew.
"Morning Dao Sect …" Su Ming's eyes closed slightly under the black robe. From the moment one of the Life Extermination fragments had been taken from his soul, he could guess that Su Xuan Yi had carried out a bloodbath in Morning Dao Sect.
It was not out of Su Ming's expectations that everything in that place had been reduced to ruins. He was only worried … about Xu Hui. Had she died in the disaster or had she managed to escape? He sighed in his heart, and it turned into a stab of pain that made him fall silent.
Old Monster Wen hesitated for a moment before he suddenly said, "But those who survived are definitely not weak. With your level of cultivation, you can gather these people together and form a new sect …"
Su Ming lifted his head and cast Old Monster Wen a cold glance. When his heart trembled, Su Ming nodded slowly.
He knew some things that the people in this place did not know. He knew that the whirlwind surrounding True Morning Dao World was not eternal. It would disappear after a period of time. Perhaps it would be a short period of time, or perhaps it would be a long period of time, but at the very most, it would not be long.
Once the whirlwind disappeared, Dark Dawn and Saint Defier would descend through the gap. At that time … what awaited Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos would be a bloody storm. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
