The Relocation seemed to last for an incredibly long time, as if a long time had passed. It was so long that Su Ming did not know how many years had passed, and fatigue that he could not stop rose in his heart, but at the same time, it also seemed to pass very quickly, causing him to feel as if his vision had just turned black. When the world became clear in his eyes, everything had already passed.
This contradictory feeling rose in Su Ming's heart at that moment. He could not describe it clearly, but that was indeed the feeling. It lasted for a long time, but in the blink of an eye, it caused a person's mind to be thrown into disorder.
It was just like how a normal cultivator would feel when meditating or a mortal would feel when sleeping. To him, it would only be an instant, but in truth, an entire night or even longer would have passed.
When the world before Su Ming's eyes became clear, a brilliant light shone in his eyes. What appeared before him was not Harmonious Morus Alba's fourth Expanse Cosmos, as Su Ming had guessed, but a semi-transparent, indistinct area!
It was as if a layer of sand had covered the world, causing everything to become indistinct. At the same time, Su Ming felt as if he could not move his body. A glint shone in his eyes, and he scrutinized the indistinct, semi-transparent area before him. He saw a huge tunnel beyond the indistinct area. It looked as if there was no end to it, and it stretched endlessly downwards. It was as if there was flesh and blood around it. It looked like a membrane, but it seemed to possess life. It was as if … it was a living tunnel!
And Su Ming was at the top of the tunnel … in a thin cocoon that was about thirty feet big!
It was a cocoon that seemed to have been frozen on the wall of the tunnel. It did not seem to have been formed for a long time, which was why it was semi-transparent. From the outside, Su Ming could clearly see Su Ming inside, but when he looked at the world outside, it was as indistinct as before.
When Su Ming swept his gaze across the area, he saw Zi Ruo frozen in a cocoon that was about ten feet big on the wall of flesh not too far away. At that moment, Zi Ruo's eyes were tightly shut, and she was unconscious.
'Even with that Relocation Rune, I managed to arrive here.' A freezing glare shone in Su Ming's eyes. The Relocation Rune might be strange and this place might be terrifying, but to Su Ming, with his level of cultivation, there was no place that he could not or could not go to.
The cocoon might have frozen Su Ming's body to the wall of flesh in the tunnel, but as a freezing glare shone in his eyes, he moved slightly, and cracking sounds immediately echoed around him. Cracks immediately appeared on the cocoon around him, and as it shattered inch by inch, it crumbled into pieces.
Su Ming took a step forward and walked out of the shattered cocoon. He stood in the tunnel and looked around him coldly. With it, Su Ming spread his will outwards, and his expression gradually changed.
When Su Ming was in the cocoon, the area around him had been indistinct. At that moment, when he walked out of the cocoon and looked around him again, everything became incredibly clear. He could clearly see … thousands of gigantic cocoons in the tunnel that looked like a wall of flesh!
The smaller cocoons were a hundred something feet big, and the bigger ones were hundreds of feet big. They surrounded the wall of flesh in the tunnel, and at first glance, they looked like lumps and cysts, giving off a chill that did not run down people's spines.
There was a person in each cocoon, but when Su Ming looked at them as if his gaze could pierce through them, he found that the person in each cocoon was a mummy. All their flesh, blood, and essence had been sucked dry by the wall of flesh in the tunnel. It was as if the tunnel had been able to exist for so long because it was continuously absorbing the essence of the people who were once alive.
Besides … Su Ming kept getting a strange feeling from the corpses in the cocoons. He could not tell what it was exactly. It was as if there was a thin layer of paper between them, and before he pierced through it, he would not be able to know what was behind the paper.
A cold glare shone in Su Ming's eyes. He lifted his right hand and seized the air in the direction of the cocoon where Zi Ruo was. With it, cracking sounds immediately reverberated in the air. An invisible hand manifested and seized the cocoon before yanking it out of the wall of flesh in the tunnel.
With a light squeeze, the cocoon was reduced to ashes with a crack, revealing Zi Ruo, who had fallen unconscious with her eyes closed. Her face was pale, and there was a hint of weakness on her face. It was as if some of her vitality had been sucked out of her during the time she was in the cocoon.
Su Ming lifted his right hand and tapped the center of Zi Ruo's brow. Zi Ruo shuddered, and her eyes flew open. There was a dazed look in her eyes for a moment, but it only lasted for an instant before she returned to normal. She looked around her, and her expression gradually turned sour. Clearly, she had noticed the reason behind her weakness.
"This is …" Zi Ruo hesitated for a moment. She swept her gaze past the cocoons, and an incredibly bizarre feeling rose in her heart.
"You'll know once you take a look." Su Ming cast a glance at his surroundings. The strange feeling became even stronger. As he spoke, he charged down the tunnel. Zi Ruo quickly followed behind him. The two of them charged down the tunnel with one in front and the other behind. At the instant they did so, Su Ming's heart trembled!
For some unknown reason, this scene reminded him of Yin Death Vortex!
He had been like this in Yin Death Vortex. He had continued charging downwards, and when he reached the end of the tunnel, he had walked from Arid Triad to Harmonious Morus Alba!
At that moment, the tunnel caused this thought to appear in Su Ming's head. Once it appeared, it spread out in Su Ming's heart, and he could not stop it. It seemed to have fused with the strange feeling that had existed in his heart since a long time ago, causing Su Ming to suddenly come to a halt as he moved forward. He no longer descended, but his expression changed rapidly as he analyzed all the possibilities in his head.
'Yin Death Vortex might be a vortex, but in truth, it's also a tunnel. However, its structure is that of a vortex, and the structure of this place is similar to a flesh tunnel.
'There are Expanse Cosmoses all around Yin Death Vortex, and there are cysts and cocoons on the flesh walls of the tunnel …' As Su Ming mulled over his thoughts, he suddenly moved and appeared beside a huge cocoon. He lifted his right hand and shot it through the cocoon. He stretched his hand inside and touched the center of the mummy's brows.
After some time, Su Ming slowly pulled back his right hand. A wisp of faint green aura floated out from the tip of his finger, but it soon disappeared without a trace. However, Su Ming could sense a familiar presence from that faint green aura!
It was …
Yin Death Aura!
The aura from Yin Death Region might be slightly mixed up, but it was only because the mummy came from a race Su Ming was unfamiliar with. In truth, no matter which race he was unfamiliar with, all of them had one similarity — Yin Death Aura!
As long as it was a life form in the Yin Death Vortex, they all had the same … Yin Death Aura! It did not matter whether it was the Berserkers or the other races in the past.
When Su Ming stared at his finger that did not have any aura spreading out from it, his pupils shrank slightly. With one move, he appeared in another huge cocoon. He still lifted his right hand and shot it through the cocoon. His finger went inside and pressed against the center of the corpse's brows, which had been dead for many years and had all its flesh, blood, essence, and energy absorbed.
When he pulled his finger back, a faint green aura spread out. That faint Yin Death Aura was the exact same as before. Su Ming's expression turned even darker, and a hint of killing intent as well as a freezing glare appeared in his narrowed eyes.
By his side, Zi Ruo witnessed everything. She might not know what connection the faint green aura had with Su Ming, but with her intelligence, she could tell with just one glance the killing intent contained in Su Ming's expression. That killing intent was so strong that Zi Ruo had never seen it on Su Ming during their journey.
It was as if at that moment, if anyone dared to provoke Su Ming, they would definitely have to suffer an unimaginable rage.
"Yin Death Aura," Su Ming mumbled. Su Ming mumbled. He moved seven times in succession, and every single time, he would land beside a cocoon. Every single time, he would put his finger inside and take it out. He experimented again and again, and every single time, he would see the faint green aura that contained Yin Death Aura. This made Su Ming completely understand why he had that strange feeling towards this place.
The cocoons on the walls of the flesh tunnel … were all filled with lives from Yin Death Vortex. It was as if … only the lives from Yin Death Vortex could be absorbed by the flesh tunnel. It was as if the tunnel could not absorb other cultivators … except for the cultivators from Yin Death Vortex!
When Su Ming cast his gaze over the tunnel, he found that he had underestimated the number of cocoons in the tunnel. There were no thousands of them … there were clearly nearly one hundred thousand!
There was no end to it. There were cocoons everywhere, and all of them were cultivators from Yin Death Vortex. Their lives, their flesh, their everything had become a part of the growth of this flesh passageway!
A red glare shone in Su Ming's eyes. It symbolized killing intent and anger. At that moment, if he still did not understand the function of the tunnel, then he would have lived in vain for so many years.
This was clearly a Yin Death tunnel created by someone intentionally imitating Yin Death Vortex!
There was only one function in the tunnel, and that was to imitate Yin Death Vortex's ability to pierce through Harmonious Morus Alba and Arid Triad. With the tunnel as the core, it could pierce through Dark Dawn, Saint Defier, and … the so-called fourth Expanse Cosmos!
Besides this function, Su Ming could not think of anything else, and he was incredibly certain that this tunnel had been created by someone in the past for this purpose.
It was precisely because of the uniqueness of the Expanse Cosmos where the cultivators from Yin Death Vortex resided that the construction of the tunnel required the cultivators' flesh, blood, and souls, and a large number of them. Only then could the construction be completed.
Besides Old Man Extermination, Su Ming could only think of a second person who had the right to spend so much money!
Once he understood this, he looked at the corpses and cocoons again, and a shudder ran through his body. He did not want … to find his Master Tian Xie Zi and the first God of Berserkers Lie Shan Xiu among the corpses …
