"Damn it, how can he still catch up to me?!" Powerful killing intent appeared in the clone's eyes. With a dark expression, he charged forward in the whirlwind. When the whirlwind blew at his body, sharp stabs of pain appeared on his skin.
He knew that he could not stay in the whirlwind for too long. With the strength of his physical body, he could last for some time, but if he stayed for too long, he would end up like the Ancient God in the past.
He had originally thought that he had shaken off Su Ming's tail and forced out the silver threads. Su Ming had lost track of him and would be forced to give up when he could no longer search for him. This had given him enough time, but he did not expect that Su Ming would still be getting closer to him even without the guidance of the silver threads.
Less than the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn after the clone roared with a dark expression on his face, his expression changed drastically. The space in the whirlwind behind him distorted, and a figure walked out. The figure lifted his right hand and tore at the whirlwind in front of him and the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole, and the whirlwind shattered with a bang. The figure stepped on the shattered whirlwind and walked forward. When his face was revealed, he was naturally Su Ming, who had chased after him.
"I have indeed underestimated you, my clone that practices the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole." Su Ming seemed to know what the clone was thinking. Once he walked out, he spoke faintly, then lifted his right hand and pointed forward.
"Mountain Shifter!" When he said those two words, the galaxy roared. The whirlwind shuddered, and countless mountains manifested in all directions. The moment Su Ming attacked, he had used one of his strongest divine abilities.
The clone's expression changed. When he moved back, a sharp glare appeared in his eyes. He lifted his right hand as well and pointed at the air.
"Mountain Shifter!" It was the same divine ability and the same Art. Su Ming had executed it with his cultivation base, and the clone had activated it with his physical power.
The difference was that Su Ming had summoned thousands of mountains around him, while the clone that practiced the Art that Practiced Hollow Shadows Whole had an illusory mountain appear around him. He was using his body as a mountain to fight against Su Ming's Art.
Su Ming's eyes focused. He was no longer surprised that the clone understood the Mountain Shifter Art as well, but what surprised him was that the Art could change to such a degree in the clone's hands. This was something he did not understand in the past.
"Looks like you've not only gained your own consciousness, but also obtained some serendipity," Su Ming said coldly. He lowered his right hand, and in an instant, countless mountains roared. Each of them contained all of Su Ming's power, and they charged towards the clone.
The shape of the mountain had completely taken shape around the clone. Once it turned into a huge mountain, it crashed into the mountains coming at him from all directions. Booming sounds echoed in the air, and all the mountains shattered inch by inch. The clone coughed up blood when the mountain around him shattered, but he still lifted his right hand and slammed it against his chest.
With it, he threw his head back and roared. His body instantly withered, and as Su Ming's pupils shrank, his body looked as if it had changed shape. Right before his eyes, Su Ming saw the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole turn into … a gigantic Crimson Python Phoenix!
It had a gigantic body and a colorful light. As the Crimson Python Phoenix roared, it shot through the air and charged into the distance at a speed that surpassed its previous speed.
When it saw that it was about to escape, Su Ming let out a cold harrumph. When he lifted his right hand, he formed two of his fingers into a blade, and with a step forward, he brought them down swiftly.
"God Slayer Art!"
The God Slayer Art was based on the laws of fate. When Su Ming executed it before he reached Fate Realm, he was already incredibly powerful. Once he mastered the laws of fate, when he executed this Art, it would shake the sky and earth.
The first to be cut was the law in the area, followed by the power that would definitely strike. As booming sounds reverberated in the air, the Crimson Python Phoenix formed by the clone, who had already fled into the distance, let out a shrill scream of pain. His body shattered with a bang, but he did not crumble. Instead, he continued charging forward regardless of the cost, but soon after, the third divine ability from the God Slayer Art — the rebound — rose swiftly. The booming sounds that rang out were even stronger, causing the Crimson Python Phoenix's body to completely crumble. As its flesh and blood became a bloody mess, it turned back into the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole. His face was pale, but he still stepped into the air and disappeared without a trace.
If it had been any other cultivator, they would have definitely died in the face of Su Ming's continuous attacks, but the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole possessed a powerful physical body that even Su Ming did not possess. The strength of his physical body was enough to allow him to move about freely in the whirlwind, so it was only natural that he would not be killed so easily.
"At this point, you should be able to think of that place, right?!" Su Ming smiled coldly. He did not think that he would be able to capture the clone this time. After all, he could be said to be the person who understood this clone the most. He knew just how difficult it was to deal with this clone's physical body, which was why he had told Hu Zi that he needed some time.
Yet in truth, killing the clone was not difficult for Su Ming, but he did not want to kill him. He wanted to Possess him a second time.
At that moment, he moved and started chasing after the clone once more.
'The more heavily injured he is, the more difficult it will be for him to move about in the whirlwind. Next time, when I catch up to him, I'll be able to capture him alive!' Su Ming's eyes sparkled. With an incredibly quick speed, he tore through the whirlwind and left.
'Damn it, damn it … I must still have his marks on me.' The clone's face was incredibly pale, and his expression grew even darker. Su Ming's two great divine abilities had already injured him. If he had not been chased down, he would have immediately searched for a place to heal himself.
Su Ming's final God Slayer Art had nearly cut his body in half, which caused his injuries to become incredibly severe. Previously, he had only felt slight stabs of pain when he moved about in the whirlwind, and he knew that he could not stay in it for long, but now that he was in the whirlwind, not only did the clone feel intense pain on his skin, even his insides were trembling even more violently. He knew that his injuries had caused his ability to resist the whirlwind to become weaker, and it had shortened the amount of time he could move about in it.
And Su Ming's thoughts were definitely to use this method to force him into a corner … As the clone charged forward, his eyes sparkled. When he noticed that Su Ming had shifted even closer to him, a hint of madness appeared in the clone's eyes.
'If that's the case, then don't blame me for being merciless!' The clone moved and changed his direction. He no longer charged forward, but instead moved to the right, leaving into the distance in the face of the whirlwind.
'When Heavenly Incense Awakened its spirit, not only did it allow me to gain intelligence, it also allowed me to absorb the memories left behind by quite a number of cultivators in True Morning Dao World in the Heavenly Incense Rune over the countless years. One of them mentioned the third mysterious place in True Morning Dao World, besides Yin Death Rune and Heavenly Incense Rune — the Sun Sinking Talisman!
'The galaxy there is always dark, and divine senses cannot leave the body. A cultivator's five senses are sealed there, and even their cultivation bases are suppressed.
'Su Ming, since you're asking for death, then I will devour you in the galaxy where the Sun Sinking Talisman is. Even if I can't devour you, divine senses will be limited there, and my cultivation base will be suppressed. I'd like to see how you'll be able to find me then!' There was a murderous look on the clone's face. Once he changed his direction, he charged towards the Sun Sinking Talisman, which was not too far away and was about five days away.
'You and I will not rest until one of us dies. This is not a grudge, this is freedom! Only when I kill you will I be completely free, and from then on, I will be Su Ming! ' The clone's expression twisted. As he charged forward, he was worried that Su Ming would catch up to him. After struggling for a moment, he gritted his teeth, and his body let out a bang. His skin turned crimson red, and gradually, it fell off to reveal blood-red flesh.
At the same time, his flesh shrank again, as if it wanted to grow into his bones. Waves of indescribable pain caused the clone to grit his teeth and descend into madness.
'Pain! Only this sort of extreme pain can stimulate all the potential in my body!' He gritted his teeth, and in an instant, his speed reached limitless. He charged straight for the Sun Sinking Talisman. As he moved forward, the flesh and blood of the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole slowly … sank into his bones under the intense pain. This might sound incomprehensible, but in truth, this was a forbidden art that allowed the bones to be outside while the flesh and blood to be inside.
'Flesh Regrowth Art on White Bone. This is a Forbidden Art I sensed in the Heavenly Incense Rune that can stimulate my subconscious for a short period of time and increase my speed by several fold.' The clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole no longer had a face, but had turned into white bones. Within those bones was a mass of flesh and blood, and he no longer looked like a human. However, by doing so, his speed instantly increased by several fold. In the blink of an eye, he widened the distance between him and Su Ming, who was chasing after him.
As Su Ming chased after him, his expression changed. As a brilliant light shone in his eyes, he noticed that the clone's speed had surpassed his imagination. In the blink of an eye, he was about to leave the area he could sense.
Without any hesitation, Su Ming leaped up and patted his storage bag with his right hand. Once he sent his divine thought into it, a roar reverberated in the air, and the Resentful Wei's body appeared. After falling into deep sleep, its presence had become slightly stronger, but its level of cultivation was not its forte. What it was most skilled in was speed.
Once the Resentful Wei appeared, Su Ming stood on its body and instantly shot through space to chase after the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole.
The clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole fled while Su Ming used the Resentful Wei to chase after him. Three days passed, and the clone swiftly rushed into a dark galaxy.
There was no whirlwind in the dark galaxy. Even if it fused into the place, it would turn into darkness. The galaxy looked incredibly vast, like a black ocean that hid all light and all things within it.
Six hours after the clone that practiced the Art of Swallowing Hollow Shadows Whole rushed into the dark galaxy, the Resentful Wei's burning body appeared. Without stopping, it brought Su Ming into the dark galaxy as well.
Only Su Ming stood on the Resentful Wei's body when it stepped into the dark galaxy. As he stared at it, a glint appeared in his eyes.
'It's just as I expected. Once I come to the land with the Sun Sinking Talisman, it won't be difficult to kill the clone. The difficult part is to Possess him a second time, and this is the best place for me to do so.' A hint of a smile appeared at the corners of Su Ming's lips.
