"End of Wills Sword …" A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. When he lifted his right hand, the purple wooden sword immediately flashed and landed in his hand. At the instant he held it, his body jolted. The murderous aura on the sword rushed into his body through his palm.
The murderous aura was incredibly strong, and it was as cold as killing intent. It swam through Su Ming's body with a bang, and by the looks of it, it wanted to destroy him. Su Ming frowned, but he did not stop it. He simply allowed the murderous aura to enter his soul. At the instant it touched his soul, the murderous aura turned into a gentle wave that swam through his entire body.
The murderous aura in Su Ming's hand also put away its killing intent at that moment. Instead, it let out a clear sword whistle, making Su Ming feel as if he had become one with the world.
"End of Wills Sword, the third sword among the nine swords. This sword can cut off all wills, break the illusion, and destroy the real! "This is Great Abyss Tribe's Sacred Vessel, and it has been in perfect condition for so many years. After all, the other tribes' Sacred Vessels were practically all shattered during the disaster …
"Su Ming, this sword … surpasses your ring. This sword had commanded the universe in the past, and now … it is peerless in Arid Triad." The old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe stared at the purple wooden sword in Su Ming's hand, and the light in his eyes became incredibly bright. This was something that had not appeared even after he saw Su Ming's ring. It was a telling sign of the origins and strength of the End of Wills Sword.
Su Ming lowered his head and cast a glance at the purple sword. He naturally knew that if he was not an Abyss Builder, then the sword's killing intent would have completely erupted and he would have been killed.
Even if this sword would not kill Su Ming, its ability to destroy his soul still made him apprehensive. As he held the purple sword in his hands, just this one slash alone could increase Su Ming's strength by another three-tenths!
The black-robed woman sucked in a deep breath. The sword had been in her hands for many years, and it had never shown such power. At that moment, when she saw the purple sword acknowledging Su Ming as its master and the clear sword whistle that sounded like it was cheering, she could not help but feel slightly jealous.
However, that jealousy soon disappeared. The sword did not belong to her, so it was only natural that it would not acknowledge her as its master.
The black-robed woman's expression became aloof once more. She stood up and said, "I have already given you the sword. There is no need for you to stay here any longer."
"I won't be sending you off." Su Ming lifted his gaze from the purple sword and looked at the woman in black before he spoke languidly.
"You seem to want me to leave as soon as possible?" The black-clothed woman suddenly said.
"You were the one who wanted to leave. I will naturally not force you." Su Ming looked at the woman with a calm expression.
"I descended from Dark Dawn and came from another Expanse Cosmos to give you this sword. I am also your senior, and you don't even have a word of thanks?" the woman in black asked coldly.
Su Ming raised his eyebrows.
'If the Dragon of Destruction had not appeared and no one had helped him before the Black Sandstorm, would that sword still be in Su Ming's hands?' Su Ming asked flatly. His voice was not loud, but there was a sharp tone to it, and it caused the mighty pressure in the area to instantly increase by a large margin.
"You …" The black-robed woman could not say anything even after a long while had passed. She let out a cold harrumph and turned around to take a step into the air. In an instant, freezing air spread out from her body, and it immediately turned into the shadow of an ice phoenix. At the instant it circled around the area, it turned into an ice mirror.
At the same time the ice mirror appeared, distortions and overlapping shadows manifested within it. It was the same method Su Ming had used to shift her to this place, but in reverse. She disappeared into the air using the same method.
This was the black-robed woman's counterattack. Ever since she arrived in this place, she had been suppressed step by step by Su Ming. She was using the chance to leave to show how outstanding she was.
Su Ming's expression remained as calm as ever as he watched the black-robed woman disappear. He did not care whether she left or stayed. He lowered his head calmly and stared at the purple sword in his hand. After a long while, he mumbled under his breath.
"Nine swords … I wonder whether the remaining ones are still around and whether Su Xuan Yi has them …" In silence, Su Ming swung his right hand. With a single thought, the purple sword instantly shrank and turned into a ray of purple light that sank into his mouth. Once he swallowed it, he used his Nascent Divinity to nourish it.
Days passed. As the one hundred something Relocation Runes in Morning Dao Sect were activated, the near one million cultivators from New Dao Sect and South Union all fused into Ninth Summit under second senior brother's command. These people disappeared into the Relocation Runes in waves and arrived in Morning Dao Sect's dimension.
Besides them, the bases of the three great forces of power in the world beyond as well as some of the materials they needed were all sent into Morning Dao Sect.
Half a month later, almost all the cultivators from Ninth Summit had entered Morning Dao Sect, and life returned to the originally dead and silent world.
Since Morning Dao Sect was too big, it was impossible for them to occupy too much space even with one million something people. Hence, most of the continents in the place were sealed off.
As the strongest force of power in Morning Dao Sect, Ninth Summit was under second senior brother's control. With the one hundred something Relocation spots in Morning Dao Sect as the foundation, he started searching through all of True Morning Dao World.
They searched for the remaining cultivators who had not been found by the three great forces of power. Once Su Ming gave them a jade slip, their search became even more accurate. Su Ming saw the tens of thousands of cultivators scattered at the edge of True Morning Dao World in the jade slip. Most of them had great power and lived alone. There were few who gathered together in large groups. At most, there would only be hundreds of them.
As the search continued, more people joined Ninth Summit. Second senior brother formed a patrol team for the True World with the one hundred something Relocation spots. Once in a while, the patrol team would use the Relocation Runes to head to various regions in True Morning Dao World. The regions near the three Great True Worlds were especially important.
There was also another important point — Arid Triad's gap in the Black Sandstorm. Second senior brother had sent quite a number of powerful warriors to the place, and they were constantly paying attention to all changes in Arid Triad's gap. If anything happened, they would immediately notify the sect.
Once he communicated with Su Ming, second senior brother sent some cultivators to True Sacred Yin World and the Fourth True World with the sole remaining member of South Union, the old monster in Death Realm who had Su Ming's Brand on his heart, as the messenger. He brought his people to True Sacred Yin World and the Fourth True World to restore contact with the two Great True Worlds. He also told them about Morning Dao Sect's destruction and Ninth Summit's rise to power.
The most important thing was to use the restoration of contact to inform the two Great True Worlds that Ninth Summit, as the greatest sect in True Morning Dao World, would constantly pay attention to Arid Triad's gap. If anything happened, they would immediately notify the other Great True Worlds. They would also invite the people from the two Great True Worlds to enter True Morning Dao World and personally take a look at Arid Triad's gap.
During this moment of crisis, they would form an alliance with each other and have the cultivators from True Sacred Yin World and the Fourth True World come to this place. When Dark Dawn and Saint Defier descended, they would fight against them together and build a barrier to counterattack beforehand.
As for repairing the gap … it was impossible. If the cultivators from Arid Triad showed any signs of repairing it, they would immediately face a disaster. It would be better if they did not repair it, and it was impossible for them to repair the gap.
Due to the whirlwind and chaos in True Morning Dao World, the interference from the Emperor of Abyss' True World, and other reasons, both True Sacred Yin World and the Fourth True World could not step into the place, which made it difficult for them to make full preparations. They could only give up on True Morning Dao World and prepare for war in their own True Worlds.
If order was restored in True Morning Dao World and they found a way to move through the whirlwind in large numbers, then once Ninth Summit took the initiative to make such a request, they would come here to prepare for the first battle against Dark Dawn and Saint Defier.
As for the Emperor of Abyss' True World, Su Ming did not consider it. In his eyes, once Su Xuan Yi left True Morning Dao World, he would most likely go to the Emperor of Abyss' True World. Since they had already turned against each other and were in a situation where they would not rest until one of them died, there was no need for them to establish any sort of connection.
However, once second senior brother heard Su Ming's thoughts, he laughed sinisterly and rejected it. Instead, he sent someone to the Emperor of Abyss' True World, insisting on establishing a connection and inviting him over.
Su Ming stared at second senior brother's sinister smile and knew that as a Heavenly Phantom, his second senior brother was incredibly skilled in scheming, which was why he did not insist on it.
As the envoys headed to the three Great True Worlds, Ninth Summit no longer had anything else to do in the sect. The Predecessor of Dao Ocean was in this place. If anyone tried to invade it, the Predecessor of Dao Ocean would not remain idle like before, which meant that there was no need for Su Ming to keep watch over the place all the time.
Besides, the Arid Disaster would last for a year very quickly. Once it ended, the old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe would leave Su Ming's place, regardless of whether he lived or died. Right then, Su Ming had a peerless warrior like the old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe, so he would naturally want to use him.
His goal … was Yin Death Vortex!
Second senior brother had to stay in Ninth Summit to manage the sect, and Hu Zi had to spend all his time strengthening the Rune. This matter was related to Ninth Summit's safety when the disaster descended in the future, so it was difficult for Hu Zi to relax even in the slightest.
As for eldest senior brother, he had to lead the one million cultivators so that he could not leave easily during the battle against the calamity. That was why once the other senior brothers discussed among themselves, they decided that Su Ming would be the only one to go to Yin Death Vortex alone.
Su Ming's main goal in heading to Yin Death Region was to break the seals placed on his senior brothers, and the way to do so … was to kill the ancient wills in Yin Death Region.
Su Ming had not been confident in his ability to do so previously, but right then, he no longer had the right to do so.
Half a month later, a Relocation Rune connected to Morning Dao Sect shone with a dazzling light in the direction of Yin Death Vortex in True Morning Dao World. Once it disappeared, Su Ming's figure appeared.
By his side was the old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe … and on Su Ming's other side was the bald crane, which had finally been able to come out after being suppressed for a long time. The bald crane was in high spirits at that moment. It cast a sideways glance at Su Ming and swore in its heart that it would never stay in Su Ming's storage bag again. It thought to itself that Su Ming had a bad memory. If he forgot about it again, it did not know when he would be able to come out again.
Besides, it was looking forward to Yin Death Region incredibly. In fact, its anticipation had turned into fanaticism.
"Darn it all, if I don't return to my hometown when I'm rich, it's like I'm wearing brocade clothes and walking at night. Who said these words in the past, old man? In any case, I've always known these words. This time, I'm going back to my hometown. I'm going to all the tribes in the land of Shamans who have worshiped me before. I'm going to all the tribes who saw through my lies and chased after my life. Heh heh, they're the ones who treated me that way in the past!" The bald crane was so excited that its entire body trembled. In fact, it could not help but let out a few cries …
There was a mistake in the previous chapter. The Great Abyss Sacred Vessel had nine swords, not seven. I'm sorry, I can't change it today. I'll go and change it tomorrow.
