Su Ming did not choose to retreat when Arid Triad's will stared at him. Instead, he stared at it for a long time, waiting for the disaster of the Antecedental Spirit to descend, but it did not come. The sleeping Arid Triad's will stared at Su Ming for a moment before it gradually disappeared.
Su Ming's expression was indifferent. He had never intended to hide his existence. Right then, Dark Dawn and Saint Defier definitely knew about him, and it was about time for Arid Triad to learn about him.
Once he returned to Ninth Summit, another month passed, and Su Ming chose to leave. This time, he did not leave quietly. Instead, as his eldest senior brothers sent him off and as Fang Cang Lan and Xu Hui watched him quietly, he gradually left into the distance to complete his second task — to settle the grudge that had surrounded him for one thousand years.
He also wanted to break the shadow cast on him by the scene in the secrets of the universe.
"It's about time for this to end. Su Xuan Yi … Do you truly not want to take back the fifth kiln where your wife is? Why did you keep it with me?" Su Ming turned his head around and cast a glance at the people from Ninth Summit. When he turned around, he took a step forward, and as he mumbled under his breath, he disappeared without a trace.
When he reappeared, he was at the border between True Morning Dao World and the Emperor of Abyss' True World. There was a broken cultivation planet in the distance, and De Shun was there.
Su Ming did not bother about that person. He stared at the barrier between the Emperor of Abyss' True World and True Morning Dao World. It was a barrier. Behind it was the Emperor of Abyss' True World, and beyond it was True Morning Dao World. It was precisely because of it that the four Great True Worlds had not fought too intensely over the course of countless years.
In the past, Su Ming did not have the right to break the barrier. Yu Xuan had only come to True Morning Dao World from the Emperor of Abyss' True World because of the Abyss Dragon.
As he stared at the True World, Su Ming lifted his right hand and swung it. Immediately, two long arcs flew out from his storage bag. One of them was the Abyss Dragon, and the other was the bald crane.
The Abyss Dragon's injuries had mostly recovered. Once it appeared, it was about to speak, but it was immediately slapped by the bald crane by its side. The bald crane stared at Su Ming with a resentful look on its face. That resentful gaze made it look as if it had turned into a resentful wife who had stayed in her room for a long time, and it was blaming Su Ming for not letting it come out of that accursed storage bag for a long time.
In the past, as long as the bald crane wanted to, it could appear, but as Su Ming's level of cultivation became stronger and his will became greater, the bald crane could no longer appear at will. It could only wait passively for Su Ming to summon it. This sort of feeling made the bald crane feel that it had turned into a resentful woman.
Its daily life consisted of counting crystals, sleeping, and beating up the Abyss Dragon. Then, it would count crystals, sleep, and beat up the Abyss Dragon again. The cycle repeated itself day by day … Gradually, the Abyss Dragon could no longer endure it. It fought back and struggled fiercely, but it was still unable to escape from its predestined fate. When it came out, tears fell from the Abyss Dragon's eyes, but before it could speak, the bald crane slapped it, and the grievance in its heart reached its peak.
"SU MING!!!" The bald crane screeched. If it had feathers, all of them would have definitely stood up at that moment, and its fighting spirit would have been high. Right then, it did not have any feathers, but there was still great anger coming from its body. As it echoed in the air, it set off the bald crane's gigantic figure.
"Y-y-you … How many days did you lock me up again?! Heavens! How many days has it been?! I can't even remember how many days have passed! I can't see sunlight, I can't see the galaxy, I can't see other people's crystals! This is torture! This is the greatest torture to me!!
"Su Ming, you're going overboard! I've fought with you over the years, and I've gone through countless dangers with you. I-I-I … I've even saved your life countless times, but what about you? You …" The bald crane shuddered. When it roared in anger, Su Ming touched his nose, and an awkward expression appeared on his face. He had indeed … forgotten about the bald crane. After all, when he was in Harmonious Morus Alba Expanse Cosmos, Su Ming had been shaken by the truth he learned. The series of things had rushed together, causing him to overlook many other things.
Only when he came to this place and saw the Emperor of Abyss' True World did he remember that the bald crane had been kept in the storage bag for a long time …
"Darn it, you …" As the bald crane roared in anger, Su Ming immediately lifted his right hand, and a crystal appeared on his palm.
"… You … Don't even think about using a crystal to make me move. I, the great bald crane, will definitely not submit to a crystal, I …" At the instant the bald crane saw the crystal in Su Ming's hand, its eyes immediately went wide. This was the first crystal it had seen over the past few days. It might only be one, but it was someone else's crystal. As long as it was someone else's crystal, even if it was just one, the bald crane would not think that it was too little.
That was why when it roared, its eyes betrayed it. Its gaze was fixed on Su Ming, as if if he dared to put away the crystal, it would rush up and fight him with its life on the line.
"You … You're going too far. One crystal, this crystal …" As the bald crane spoke, a conflicted look appeared on its face. Its roars immediately became much weaker, and struggle as well as chaos appeared in its eyes. It was as if its consciousness had been split into two and was fighting fiercely.
"I want to go to the Emperor of Abyss' True World. I promise you that I will give you all the crystals in this True World. What do you say?" Su Ming saw that the bald crane had not seen anyone else's crystals for far too long while it was in conflict, which was why it looked like it was about to make a mess.
"Don't even think about it … Darn it all, what did you say? You said you'll give me a True World's worth of crystals? I … I … I, the great bald crane, will absolutely not submit …" The bald crane's saliva was already dripping down its face. It instinctively took a few steps forward, and almost instinctively put on a fawning expression, but it stopped itself. Just as it was about to emphasize its disdain and agree to it reluctantly, Su Ming sighed.
The bald crane's heart immediately let out a thump, and it instantly panicked, afraid that Su Ming would go back on his word. Just as it was about to pounce on him, it saw a scene that it would never be able to forget, one that had shocked it for nearly its entire life.
To a True World's will, what were crystals …? They were things that could be born in space with just a divine thought from its will. It was something that could be compared to a mortal's ability to turn stone into gold with the touch of a finger. It was using its will to create crystals!
Su Ming only swept his will through the area, and immediately, countless crystals appeared around him, the bald crane, and a large area in the galaxy. The sparkling stones stunned the bald crane during that instant. It was completely shocked, especially when it saw that Su Ming had not brought out those crystals from his storage bag, because in truth, it knew even better than him just how many crystals he had.
"How … How … How did you get all these?" the bald crane instinctively asked in a daze.
"I made them." At the instant Su Ming answered the question, the bald crane screeched and pounced on him, hugging his thigh tightly.
"Thigh, from now on, you're my thigh. Even if you lock me up for ten thousand years, I'll accept it. I won't have a single complaint. Thigh, give me more … Can … Can you turn me into a crystal crane?"
"My thighs, can you give me double monthly votes?
