"Go back to your sleeping spot. It's not time for you to wake up yet," the white-robed Su Ming said faintly in midair. As his voice echoed in the air, the presence of the strongest person in the aeon swept through the world, and a voice that caused the entire True World to tremble tumbled out of Su Ming's mouth.
As the air around him distorted, it turned into a huge hand that went to seize the blood-red figure.
Madness appeared in the blood-red figure's eyes. He formed a seal with his hands and pointed forward. Immediately, the air around him distorted. Blood fog surged into the sky, and the roars of malicious spirits came from it. The blood fog turned into a ferocious face of a ghost that charged towards the hand. Once they crashed into each other, a loud bang that shook the sky and earth erupted.
The hand shattered, and the face of the ghost let out a shrill scream before it crumbled. Su Ming swung his arm, and a freezing glare appeared in his eyes. The blood-red figure moved and took a few steps back again. When he lifted his head, he glared at Su Ming. A crazed, ferocious smile appeared on his lips, as if he did not care even if he was at a disadvantage.
"As expected of the strongest person in this aeon, but aren't you a little too conceited? You don't have the right to make me continue sleeping. You can't kill me, and not even Arid Triad's disaster can destroy me. All those who have reached our level are already undying!" As the blood-red figure laughed madly, he lifted his right hand and seized the air in the direction of the sky.
"Five-Faced Beast Deity, descend upon this aeon!" As the blood-red figure spoke, the world roared. A huge crack tore through space out of nowhere with loud rumbles. A boundless, malicious presence instantly surged out of the crack. Within it were five mighty pressures that could be clearly sensed intersecting with each other, and they were incredibly astonishing. This was the famous Five-Faced Beast Deity from the previous aeon.
It was the famous Five-Faced Beast Deity from the previous aeon. That beast was not refined by a cultivator, but born from the Essences of the world. When it appeared, it was in Avacaniya Realm, and it devoured countless cultivators. It stirred up a disaster in the previous aeon, and countless living beings died. Even if all the powerful warriors from the True World gathered together, the beast still managed to defeat them one by one, and the more it devoured, the stronger it became. In the end, it gained intelligence, and its level of cultivation reached its peak. During that period of time, it could be said to be invincible. The beast threw its head back and roared. It sensed the existence of Arid Triad's will, which was why it … went to challenge it.
In that battle, it lost completely. Its physical body was crushed, and its soul scattered. It was destroyed by Arid Triad's will, but even though its real body had died, during the thousands of years after that aeon, cultivators gradually began to sense its fragmented soul.
When more cultivators like this appeared, the Five-Faced Beast Deity Cult was born. The people in that cult were all people who had killed monstrous amounts of people. They were ruthless and merciless, and they worshiped the Five-Faced Beast Deity. They built a statue and worshiped it every single day. As time passed, the leaders of the cult gradually became able to summon the shadow of the Five-Faced Beast Deity, but most of them only had one head. At most, they could summon three heads.
However, just three heads was enough for them to obtain power equivalent to those in Avacaniya Realm.
During the end of that aeon, a peerless genius appeared in the Five-Faced Beast Deity Cult. That person's potential could be said to be at the top, and he seemed to be born to fuse with the Five-Faced Divine Beast's soul. He rose to power, and in a short ten thousand years, he gathered together three heads of the Five-Faced Beast Deity. After that, he searched through the entire Expanse Cosmos and gathered together nearly eight-tenths of the Five-Faced Beast Deity's soul, causing the shadow he summoned to be the first to appear in the universe after the Five-Faced Beast Deity died!
He was the blood-red figure in front of them. He was the prodigy of the Five-Faced Beast Deity Cult in the past, and he had fused with his other self to become an immortal and indestructible existence, Yi Mo Ke.
He had slaughtered so many people that he gained a great reputation in the previous aeon. He was one of the two strongest people in that aeon, and he had survived Arid Triad's disaster. It was a pity that he was forced to fall into deep sleep after just one hundred years. During the one hundred years of the new aeon, he had spent most of his time creating the legacy of the Five-Faced Beast Deity Cult, which was why most of the later generations did not know of his existence.
The crack that appeared in the world at that moment was a sign that the Five-Faced Beast Deity was about to appear. As the malicious presence spread out, a loud roar came from the crack. Soon after, a huge head appeared. It was the head of a ferocious beast that looked like a snake. As its red tongue flicked in and out of the snake's head, a piercing screech shot out of the crack like a bolt of lightning.
That snake's head was the first head of the Five-Faced Beast Deity!
It charged towards Su Ming and instantly closed in on the white-robed Su Ming. It occupied the world, and a foul stench that seemed to be able to corrode space came crashing into Su Ming's face, causing the world around him to immediately show signs of festering.
Su Ming's expression was calm. This might be the first time he saw the true power of a powerful warrior from the previous aeon, but he was not wary in the slightest. As the strongest person in this aeon, Su Ming also wanted to see … just who was the strongest among the powerful warriors from the previous aeon!
The moment the huge snake's head closed in on him and the foul stench came crashing into his face, Su Ming let out a cold harrumph. He lifted his right hand and swung it forward. With it, the world instantly roared, and a huge hand manifested in front of Su Ming. It seized the snake's head and lifted it upwards.
At that moment, another roar came from the crack. A gigantic wolf's head rushed out, and with a presence that made it seem as if it wanted to devour the sky and earth, it opened its mouth and charged towards Su Ming in an instant.
Immediately after, the third roar came from the crack in the sky. A huge tiger's head instantly appeared in the sky. The word 'king' at the center of its brows was incredibly clear, and it exuded a supreme, domineering air. When it roared, a powerful wave of sound surged into the sky and shook the entire planet.
And this was just the third head. At the instant the tiger's roar spread through the planet, the fourth head appeared. It was a huge dragon head that was entirely black. At the instant the fourth head appeared, the fifth head also appeared. It was the head of a boy with a distorted face. At the instant the boy's head appeared, he let out a piercing howl at Su Ming!
A vast, mighty pressure shot through the five heads, and like a Rune, they charged towards Su Ming from five directions.
At the same time, as the five heads descended, the body of the five-faced Beast Divinity appeared in the rift in the sky. Shockingly, it was … a humanoid body, extremely large, nearly 30,000 meters long. Only a portion of it was revealed, but that alone was enough to shock anyone who saw it.
"The Five-Faced Beast Deity has five heads, but I don't understand … Are you worthy of being called a deity?" Su Ming stared at the five heads charging towards him ferociously. Each head gave Su Ming a feeling that they were equivalent to those in Avacaniya Realm, but once they were connected together, a feeling that made Su Ming feel as if he was looking at the old man from Heavenly Spirit Tribe in the past erupted from him.
It was a powerful presence equivalent to those who had gone through the eight cycles of Antecedental Spirits … but before Su Ming, this sort of presence was not enough!
After all, even though they were both the strongest in their respective aeons, there was still a difference in strength between them. This was something that could not be the same!
At the instant Su Ming's voice rang out and the five heads closed in on him, Su Ming seized the air with his right hand, and a purple sword appeared in his hand. It exuded an indescribably fierce presence. It was … the End of Wills Sword!
The grade of the sword had once surpassed Su Ming's. It was the sword controlling the person, not the person controlling the sword … but the sword in Su Ming's hand was his weapon. It should have been impossible for the sword to cut off the Five-Faced Beast Deity's head, but when Su Ming held it in his hand, it could!
A freezing glare shone in Su Ming's eyes. With the sword in his right hand, he did not retreat. Instead, he moved forward. In an instant, he was already right in front of the snake's head. At the instant the snake's head came to devour him, the purple light from his sword surged into the sky. It dazzled the eyes of all the cultivators who were paying attention to the battle. When the purple light reached a piercing degree and everything before their eyes turned dark, a shrill scream of pain tumbled out of the snake's mouth.
Booms filled the air, and at the same time, a shrill howl could be heard, as if the beast was struggling in its death throes. The booms grew even more intense, and yet, that wasn't the end of it. A third bloodcurdling scream rang out, and the darkness in front of everyone's eyes faded away. When their vision returned to normal, they saw that of the five beasts in the sky, the snake's head had been severed, the wolf's head had fallen to the ground, and the tiger's head was glowing red, as if it had been stabbed by a sword.
Shock appeared on the remaining dragon head and the boy's head at that instant, but before they could retreat, a glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He lifted his right hand, pointed at it, and swung his arm. Immediately, the tiger head let out a scream of pain. As its head crumbled, purple light shone from within and disappeared without a trace from the dragon head and the boy's head in a flash.
In an instant, purple light shone in front of Su Ming, and the End of Wills Sword manifested. A drop of black blood fell from the tip of the sword, and the dragon head shuddered before it was cut off. The boy's head let out a roar filled with unwillingness to admit defeat. A slash mark appeared at the center of his brows, and with a bang, it was cut in half.
The End of Wills Sword shuddered in excitement. Ever since it was created, it had followed its strongest master and cut off the head of the strongest enemy it had ever met in its life. It had sucked in the blood of such a powerful warrior, which had stirred up its excitement and agitation. In fact, it could even sense that before long … it would be able to take another step forward!
"That's all the Five-Faced Beast Deity is capable of," Su Ming said faintly, then lifted his right hand and pushed at the giant who had lost its five heads.
"Go back to where you came from. Seal!" Su Ming said those words faintly. There were only seven words, but the crack in the sky immediately turned into a vortex. As it rotated with loud bangs, a great suction force spread out. No matter how the giant struggled, he could not change the fact that he was sucked into the vortex. As he was sucked in, the vortex disappeared, and the sky … returned to normal!
