The outline of the Rune of Crystalline Light looked like a medicinal cauldron. At the same time it shone with a brilliant light, it looked as if it wanted to contain Su Ming within it.
With a calm expression, Su Ming walked forward. At the instant he touched a ray of crystalline light, he sensed a powerful rebound, as if it was trying to stop him from moving forward.
"This item …" The old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe, who had been by Su Ming's side all this while but no one could see him, cast a glance at the Rune of Crystalline Light. After a moment of pensive silence, he smiled faintly.
"This item is rather similar to the Pill clan's holy artefact, but it's clearly a replica. There are some fragments of the Pill clan's holy artefact inside. It looks like there are some descendants of the Pill clan among these juniors," the old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe said flatly.
Almost at the same time the old man finished speaking, nine long arcs flew out from the direction of South Union. As they charged forward, they appeared in front of Su Ming and turned into nine old men.
The nine old men had ordinary levels of cultivation. They were only in Solar Kalpa Realm, but they seemed to have inherited an ancient presence. Once they cast a glance at Su Ming, they immediately formed seals with their hands and pointed at the crystalline medicinal cauldron formed by the Rune formed by the one thousand people.
"The Saint of Pill's will is the will of heaven, and the Sacred Core of Heavenly Will!" The nine people coughed up a mouthful of blood. There was a strange air to their voices. At the instant they spoke, the crystalline Rune shone with a light that reached one hundred thousand feet. As booming sounds reverberated in the air, the one thousand people started rotating according to a certain pattern. If anyone looked from the distance, they would be able to clearly see that there was a huge medicinal cauldron rotating.
At the same time, as the medicinal cauldron rotated, the will of the universe seemed to tear through space and descend from the passage of time. It enveloped the cauldron, causing all those who looked at it to naturally feel as if it was ancient. At that instant, the will of the universe grew so great that it looked as if it was about to gain corporeal form.
This was a power of will that was even stronger than the thirteen Almighties in Fate Realm who had sealed off the galaxy and separated the land from True Morning Dao World. In fact, Su Ming could sense that the appearance of the will of the universe was already infinitely close to the will of heaven that was similar to that of an Antecedental Spirit.
However … it was only infinitely close to it.
"A mere Southern Alliance has such a deep foundation." If Su Ming's soul was not an Antecedental Spirit and he was just an Almighty in Death Realm, then this Rune would have been incredibly difficult for him to deal with. It would have been like a Mastery Realm cultivator going up against someone in Fate Realm. He would have been completely suppressed.
"But it's not enough." Su Ming's expression did not change much. He looked at the nine old men and shook his head. He stood in the Rune and did not move.
The expressions of the nine of them were gloomy. They let out cold snorts and formed hand seals before pointing at the formation.
"The will of the Pill Saint shall strip your soul!" With aloof and ghastly expressions on their faces, the nine people spoke at the same time. Immediately, the medicinal furnace formed by the Rune formed by the one thousand people spun even faster. The will of the universe in it turned into a fierce, invisible blade that swiftly cut down on Su Ming.
What it wanted to cut was not Su Ming's body, but his soul. A freezing glare appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He lifted his right hand and pointed upwards. Immediately, the invisible blade shuddered and shattered into pieces. No one could see this, but the nine old men could clearly sense it. At the instant the invisible blade shattered, their expressions changed, and they coughed up blood at the same time. When they fell back, they formed hand seals again.
"The power of the three saints, the will of the universe, strip your soul!" At the instant the nine people roared, the rotation speed of the Rune increased exponentially again. The one thousand people shuddered, and their flesh and blood became even more indistinct. In the blink of an eye, they looked like they were about to turn into skeletons.
Su Ming smiled coldly and took a step forward. At the instant he touched the crystalline light in front of him, it grew to a piercing degree, but it was clearly trembling, as if it could not withstand the power and was about to shatter. The nine people immediately sat down cross-legged. As their bodies rapidly withered, disbelief appeared on their faces. They formed hand seals together and roared.
"Progenitor of Pill, please descend and sacrifice the souls of one thousand people. Turn into the will of the universe and strip your soul!" Their voices were hoarse and shrill. At the instant they reverberated in the air, the one thousand people who formed the medicinal furnace shuddered. Their life force instantly disappeared, their flesh and blood shattered, and their bones disappeared. Only blood-red crystals were left. As if they had absorbed all the blood from the one thousand people, they floated in the area and shrank swiftly. With Su Ming as the center, they gathered together to form a gigantic medicinal furnace!
Boom!
It was as if an invisible fire had been lit on the medicinal cauldron. As it burned, it started spinning rapidly, and at that moment, a vast will descended. That will was like the will of heaven, and it brought with it a mighty pressure, along with the cheers from the people of South Union after they were shocked, and with the nine old men's cold sneers and derision, it charged towards Su Ming.
The nine old men's wills were contained in the will of the universe. It was a will that wanted to strip Su Ming's soul from his body. It was as if all manner of lives could not bear to obey him. It was like … the will of heaven.
"I am Mo Su, Ninth Summit's Great Sect Elder. Today, I will leave my body and offer my soul to the Progenitor of Pill!" the nine people said again. As they formed seals, they placed their hands at the center of their brows.
But at the instant the will of heaven formed by the will of the universe descended on Su Ming, he shook his head.
"The will of heaven … is just formed by the remnant thoughts. Since you worship the will of heaven so much, then I will let you see … what is the will of heaven." When Su Ming said those words flatly, he lifted his head. A freezing glare shone in his eyes, and he spread his divine sense outwards. His will of an Antecedental Spirit spread out swiftly and enveloped the entire area. It caused the air to tremble, the universe to tremble, and all the galaxies in the area looked as if their wills had been changed to become Su Ming's.
When that will rose, all lives would be born, and when it fell, the universe would be destroyed.
When Su Ming thought about it, the will of heaven that descended instantly shuddered. The medicinal furnace formed by crystals let out booming sounds, and huge cracks appeared on it. The expressions of the nine old men changed drastically, and disbelief filled their hearts.
When Su Ming thought about it, the will of heaven that descended crumbled. The crystal medicinal furnace shuddered and shattered into pieces with a bang. When it tumbled backwards, each of its fragments crumbled again. When they were reduced to dust, Su Ming walked out from within with a calm expression.
The nine old men coughed up blood. Eight of them even exploded. As they were reduced to a bloody mess, it was clear that they could not withstand the backlash from the crystal medicinal furnace shattering. The only old man who was still alive coughed up blood continuously. When he stared at Su Ming, there was indescribable terror and shock in his eyes. The disbelief in his eyes was so strong that it turned into a mumble.
"Antecedental Spirit … You're an Antecedental Spirit … This is impossible. The Antecedental Spirits of this era are either suppressed in Spirit Hell or sealed so that they can't come out. You … How could you be an Antecedental Spirit?!
Unless you've just become an Antecedental Spirit … This is the only possibility. You haven't been suppressed by Arid Triad's will! " The old man's eyes went wide, and he suddenly started laughing loudly. There was a hint of madness in his laughter, but there was also a hint of delight in it.
"So what if you're an Antecedental Spirit? Since ancient times, all Antecedental Spirits have been suppressed by Arid Triad's will. That day is not far away!" As the old man laughed, he let out a shrill roar, coughed up blood, and breathed his last.
His life force had already been destroyed, and what happened just then was just the final radiance of a setting sun. At that moment, as he laughed and coughed up blood, his body fell to the ground.
Almost at the instant the old man fell and Su Ming walked out of the shattered crystal medicinal furnace, two long arcs charged out from the whirlwind behind the hundreds of logs. When they appeared, an undying and imperishable will spread out from them. They were two powerful warriors in Death Realm!
They were two of the three Union Masters of South Dream. They were also the strongest cultivators in the expedition to this place. They had not appeared previously because they were cautious. If they did not have absolute confidence in Su Ming, they would not want to personally attack.
Yet now, they still did not have that confidence, but the old man's words before he died caused their hearts to tremble, and they knew that they had to attack.
"Five hundred thousand cultivators of South Union, hear me! Form South Union's Seven Ultimate Yin Transformation Rune and seal and suppress this person!" When the two of them flew out, one of them immediately roared. His voice rumbled, and it contained the vast, mighty pressure of those in Death Realm. It enveloped the area and turned into a vast power that seemed to be able to fight against Su Ming's presence.
At the instant he said those words, hundreds of logs flew out simultaneously. Even the logs hidden in the whirlwind rushed out with a loud whistle. On one of them was Xu Hui with a hint of pride on her face. She lifted her chin and stood there while looking at Su Ming coldly. There was a look of unfamiliarity in her eyes, and not a hint of the gentleness she had in the past could be found.
Behind her, De Shun naturally could not tell that the current Mo Su was the Dao Kong of the past. He stood behind Xu Hui carefully with an obsequious look on his face.
As nearly five hundred logs charged out, they formed a Rune with seven circles around Su Ming in an incredibly clean manner, as if they had done this hundreds of times before.
Seven circles of different sizes were formed by logs that surrounded Su Ming. They spread out in the galaxy, giving off a vast and mighty feeling when all those who saw it saw it.
This was all the five hundred thousand cultivators of South Union. Nearly five hundred logs surrounded them, and the mighty pressure formed by them was so great that there were seven vortexes between the logs. They were also connected to each other like the circles of logs. They spun in different directions, and from the distance, they looked as if they had turned into galactic vortexes.
In the innermost layer of the circle of logs were two old men facing off against Su Ming. One of them had a red face and a head full of white hair. He looked like an old man, but the exuberant life force in his body was so thick that it was difficult to describe it with words.
The other person was a thin old man. A chilling presence spread out from his body, and his face was expressionless. He stood like ice, and no one could see a vast amount of life force in him, but he gave off a feeling as if he was indestructible ice. It was as if as long as he stood there, even if the galaxy collapsed, he would not die.
This … was Death Realm!
When the seven circles of logs formed a Rune and surrounded Su Ming, there was an indistinct figure hidden in the whirlwind in the distance. It was a woman with a cold expression but an incredibly beautiful face. At that moment, she was staring at Su Ming, and a strange light shone in her eyes.
"Antecedental Spirit …"
