"Youngest junior brother, is that your clone?" Hu Zi's gaze landed on Su Ming's clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole under the second incense stick, and his pupils shrank slightly. When he cast the divine ability just now, he could only see pictures and could not sense the specifics of his level of cultivation. However, at that moment, when he saw Su Ming's clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole, he immediately sensed a powerful, mighty pressure.
That mighty pressure was not born from his cultivation base, but from a powerful power that seemed to be about to erupt from his body. The strength of his physical body shocked Hu Zi. After all, he also practiced physical body cultivation. As for his cultivation base, he might have focused mainly on Dream Dao, but in truth, he did not like Dream Dao. Instead, he was more inclined towards his physical body.
Because of that, he understood better than anyone else just how terrifying the power he could bring forth with his physical body was. When he spoke, Hu Zi turned his head to look at Su Ming. When he saw Su Ming nod, he sucked in a sharp breath in his heart. He had previously seen Su Ming's level of cultivation, and it seemed like he had just moved from Mastery Realm to Fate Realm not too long ago. Yet at that moment, he suddenly realized that even his eldest senior brother and second senior brother had misjudged his youngest junior brother's true combat abilities.
"It's just a clone, and he's already able to bring forth such mighty pressure from me. Heh heh, Ninth Summit is destined to rise to power. Just how strong is youngest junior brother's true level of cultivation..?" Hu Zi grinned, looking incredibly happy.
He stared at the nine incense sticks, and with a calm expression, Su Ming took huge strides forward. Hu Zi quickly followed behind him. As for the bald crane, it also swaggered forward.
In its eyes, there was practically no longer anything in True Morning Dao World that could threaten Su Ming. Once the supreme treasure appeared, Su Ming would be able to fight against even Almighties in Death Realm.
Even if he ran into Sublime Paragons and Su Ming was not their opponent, it would be incredibly easy for him to retreat unscathed.
Because of that, there was nothing for the bald crane to be afraid of.
Su Ming did not move quickly. As he approached the Heavenly Incense Rune, a feeling as if his cultivation base was boiling appeared in his body. The closer he got to the Heavenly Incense Rune, the livelier his cultivation base became, as if he was about to reach a breakthrough. As he closed in, hints of epiphany suddenly appeared in Su Ming's mind.
However, these epiphanies were rather indistinct, causing Su Ming to be unable to see them clearly. They seemed to have appeared out of thin air. When they echoed in Su Ming's mind, they fused with his cultivation base, causing him to have a strong feeling that his cultivation base was about to break through the fate of the world around him and turn into the fate of his heart.
This change made a thought appear in Su Ming's heart. He stopped moving and turned his head around to look at Hu Zi. By then, Hu Zi's face had already turned incredibly grave. A large amount of Runic Runic Symbols were flashing in his eyes, and a large amount of distortions appeared around his body. Those distortions seemed to have turned into a Rune that enveloped Hu Zi within.
"Hu Zi, wait for me here. Observe the Heavenly Incense Rune. If anything happens to the Rune, you'll be able to notice it in time and tell me." Su Ming could tell that Hu Zi was in a difficult situation. Unless he completely gave up on fighting back like the one hundred thousand cultivators and sat down to train, if there was any form of resistance, then as he got closer to the Rune, things would become increasingly difficult. Su Ming had the supreme treasure, the ring. Once danger appeared, it would not be difficult for him to escape unscathed, but if Hu Zi ventured deeper into the Rune, then with his status as the spirit of the Rune, he might run into an accident.
That was why Su Ming said those words and told Hu Zi to wait.
Hu Zi hesitated for a moment before he nodded. He knew that since he was also a spirit of the Rune, he could sense it even more strongly than the others. In fact, the faint feeling of being called out to him also surpassed that of the others. He had not ventured too deep into the Rune in the past, and if it were not for Su Ming, he would not have come to this place.
"Um, Hu Zi, this person likes to act rashly, so I volunteered to watch over him. Little boy Su, don't worry, I won't let him act rashly." A thought appeared in the bald crane's head, and it immediately stopped moving. It put on an expression as if it was very brave and willing to sacrifice everything for Su Ming, but in truth, when it got closer, it felt as if its soul was boiling. This was not a good sign. Once it boiled to its limit, then its soul would scatter. It was so terrified that it quickly stopped moving, but it felt that it could not tarnish its reputation, which was why it emphasized it.
Su Ming cast the bald crane a glance with the ghost of a smile on his face, then turned around and walked towards the Heavenly Incense Rune. His footsteps were not quick, and his speed was not fast either, but with each step he took, the galaxy would tremble slightly.
A mighty pressure spreading out from Su Ming's body spread out with increasing strength, and it seemed to be fighting against the Heavenly Incense Rune. When Su Ming walked past the one hundred thousand cultivators, the mighty pressure spreading out from his body had already reached its peak.
But what the others could not see was that while Su Ming's eyes were still filled with determination, a hint of hesitation had appeared in them. This hesitation was because he had a feeling that his level of cultivation … had reached a breakthrough in this place!
But he could clearly sense that this breakthrough was an illusion and not real, but the feeling was incredibly strong. He had broken through the fate of the world around him and obtained his own fate, allowing him to reach perfection in Fate Realm!
'This Rune is strange …' Su Ming did not stop moving. With a step, he walked past the region where the one hundred thousand people were and stepped into a spot that was less than ten thousand feet away from the Heavenly Incense Rune. Not too far away from Su Ming was the spot where his clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole was meditating.
Su Ming's expression was relaxed, but the hesitation in his eyes had turned into a cold glare. He continued moving forward at a slow pace, but when he was far away from the Heavenly Incense Rune, he might have seemed slow, but right then, when he was only ten thousand feet away from the Rune, even though his pace and speed were the same, there was no way for him to compare them. His speed was so quick that he instantly covered several thousands of feet.
This scene caused Hu Zi to suck in a sharp breath in his heart. Shock appeared in his eyes. He could tell that Su Ming still retained a clear mind, but the level of cultivation and determination required for him to be able to do so at such a distance was incredibly terrifying.
"Heh heh, this is nothing. It's just a drizzle." When the bald crane saw the shock on Hu Zi's face, it instantly put on a smug look.
"What about youngest junior brother's level of cultivation?" Hu Zi hesitated for a moment before he looked at the bald crane.
"Haha, that's hard to say. In any case, there aren't many people who can kill him right now. Of course, I'm talking about the four Great True Worlds." The bald crane became even more smug, as if it had been waiting for Hu Zi to ask about it since a long time ago. Right then, when Hu Zi spoke, it immediately answered.
"I never lie. Have you heard of the Ancient Gods? They're the tall giants."
"Ancient Gods? You should be talking about the Grand Immortals of the Ancient Races. It's only natural that I've seen them before … "
"Su Ming killed one just now, but he did so with my help." The bald crane might have wanted to make light of the matter, but the smug look on its face made it seem as if it was not talking about Su Ming but itself. It still showed off its boastful attitude.
Hu Zi shook his head vigorously. There was a slight buzzing in his ears. He knew just how strong the Ancient Gods were. He had seen them with his own eyes, and at that moment, a huge storm raged in his heart.
"Ahem, more accurately speaking, he killed two of them. They're at the place where you were drinking just now. There was an Ancient God there, but he was devoured by Su Ming. Of course, he also did so with my help," the bald crane added with a smug look on its face.
While Hu Zi and the bald crane spoke, Su Ming had already walked several thousands of feet in a relaxed manner. He arrived at the spot where his clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole was meditating. He stood there and cast a glance at the Heavenly Incense Rune. At that moment, the ripples of power in his body grew stronger, but it was something that could not be seen on the surface.
This intensity made it seem like if Su Ming took a few more steps, he would be able to break through Fate Realm and step into Life Realm. In fact, Su Ming had a strong feeling that if he continued walking down this path, not only would he be able to break through Life Realm, he would even be able to break through Death Realm and even Sublime Paragon Realm.
This feeling was so strong that it turned into a great temptation. Even if he knew that it was fake, he still found it difficult to suppress the urge. This urge was enough to make people overlook the disappearance of their souls while they seemed to be reaching a breakthrough in their levels of cultivation.
All those who stepped into this place would sense their souls continuously disappearing at the same time they reached a breakthrough in their levels of cultivation. It was as if all of this was fake. Besides the strangeness of the Heavenly Incense Rune, most of it was done through the disappearance of their souls.
That was why Su Ming lost contact with the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole in this place, because the soul in the clone had completely disappeared.
Su Ming stood beside the clone, and a pensive look appeared on his face. After a moment, he lifted his right hand and brought it down on the top of the clone's skull, but at the instant his right hand landed, the clone opened his eyes. Gray light shone in them, along with a will and a freezing glare that did not belong to Su Ming.
He moved, intending to avoid Su Ming's right hand. In fact, a powerful physical power erupted from the clone's body at that instant. Ripples that looked as if they were about to explode rose up with a bang and charged towards Su Ming to devour him.
Su Ming's expression remained calm, and a hint of derision appeared at the corners of his lips. His right hand did not stop moving. He maintained his previous speed and brought it down on the top of the clone's skull. A ripple spread out from the ring on his right index finger, and the clone shuddered. He … could not get up. Crazed struggle appeared in the gray light in his eyes, but it did not last for long. Su Ming's right hand struck the top of the clone's skull.
Without a single sound, the gray light in the clone's eyes disappeared. Gradually, a brilliant light that belonged to Su Ming appeared in the clone's eyes like a ball of fire.
Hu Zi saw this scene with his own eyes. He saw the physical body that he had previously thought to be incredibly powerful not having the slightest bit of resistance before Su Ming. This might be related to the fact that this clone belonged to Su Ming to begin with, but this sort of backlash was suppressed so easily. This was enough to tell that Su Ming's level of cultivation had already reached a state that could not be underestimated!
"Youngest junior brother … Is he in Death Realm?" Hu Zi was stunned, then instinctively asked in a silly manner.
"Death Realm? So what if he's in Death Realm? Let's not talk about him. Hu Zi, look at how fast little boy Su is growing with my help. Do you want to think about it? Give me a few hundred … No, tens of millions of crystals every year, and I promise you that your level of cultivation will increase by leaps and bounds. How about it? Think about it. This is a rare chance. Little Hu Zi, you have to seize it. "The bald crane's eyes shone brightly. It had tried to entice Su Ming with so many things just for this moment.
