While the three black-robed men turned into multiple clones that looked like Su Ming and stirred up waves of resentment in Saint Defier's camp, Xuan Jiu had already turned into black water in the Expanse Cosmos where the three Saints of Saint Defier were.
Fei Hua opened her eyes, and anguish appeared on her face. She did not need to touch her face to sense that her life force was about to be extinguished. It might be about to be extinguished, but in truth, she still had one thousand years left.
However … she could no longer see her usual face. Her face was old, and her hair had turned white. She looked as if too much of her life had been sucked out of her, and she had withered away into old age.
She sighed softly, but there was no longer any reluctance. Her calm personality allowed her to accept the truth. She had never agreed to plot against the powerful warrior from Arid Triad whom she had never met, but the other two had already agreed to it, so she tacitly agreed to it.
At that moment, when she stood up slowly, she saw Xiao Song opening his eyes on the other altar. He was no longer as handsome as he was in the past, and neither was he as old as Fei Hua. Instead, he looked like a mummy. He was so withered that he looked as if he was rotting away, as if he had just crawled out of a coffin that had been buried for months.
A foul stench spread out. Then, Xiao Song's shrill screams echoed in the world. He felt pain all over his body, as if there were countless insects biting him and crawling about. It was the same for his soul. Under that intense pain, his cultivation base, which had already been corroded to begin with, became riddled with holes, causing his mind to sink into chaos. It was as if he … had gone mad.
As he screamed in pain, his body flew away, and with a shrill echo, he charged into the distance.
"It hurts … It hurts!" His voice gradually turned into lingering echoes in the air. When it slowly faded away, Fei Hua lowered her head in silence. This time, the three of them had lost completely. Xuan Jiu had died, Xiao Song had gone mad, and as for herself … she had also lost her youth. Even though there were not many changes in her level of cultivation, she only had one thousand years left in her life.
All of this eventually turned into a sigh. Fei Hua cast a glance at the area around her, then walked into the air. She was tired. She wanted to quietly walk the final steps of her life in her homeland.
"Maybe I won't be able to wait for him … He doesn't care about me anyway, he only cares about my sister …" Fei Hua shook his head bitterly and left.
When Fei Hua left into the distance, the bald crane was reprimanding Yan Pei smugly in Dark Dawn's camp. It was even boasting about itself. Yan Pei's mind was elsewhere. He would occasionally cast a glance at Zi Ruo, who was in a daze not too far away from him. In his heart, he wondered just what had happened in Old Man Extermination's tomb.
As the bald crane spoke, it suddenly felt a stab of pain in its heart. Its words came to an abrupt halt, and when it lifted its head, it stared at the galaxy in a daze. It stared in the direction of Saint Defier's camp, and confusion appeared in its eyes.
Vaguely, a picture appeared in its head. There was a woman in that picture, and she was staring at a handsome young man beside her with a smile. The two of them were staring at each other, but they did not notice that there was a black crane in the distance. It was staring at the young man with a jealous expression. Beside the black crane was a young woman. She was gently stroking the black crane's feathers, and there was an innocent look on her face.
This picture disturbed the bald crane's heart, causing it to instinctively raise its claws and claw at its face. Once it shook its body, the painful picture in its head disappeared, and it suddenly felt that it was no longer in the mood to talk to Yan Pei.
It suddenly had an urge to head to Saint Defier's camp. It did not know what it wanted to do, but that urge grew stronger. In the end, it moved, and under Yan Pei's stunned gaze, the bald crane turned into a long arc that charged into the galaxy.
…..
Harmonious Morus Alba's fourth wing. The Heaven Lacking Expanse Cosmos the boy spoke of was a very straightforward name. Perhaps the people could see that the sky there was not lacking, but in the places they could not see, there was a gap.
If the galaxy was compared to the sky, then the sky … was indeed lacking.
Su Ming headed to the place where Heaven Lacking Expanse Cosmos was based on the spot his will had seen previously. He did not cast a glance at the unfamiliar galaxy. It might be Harmonious Morus Alba's Expanse Cosmos, but it was not Su Ming's homeland.
Once he found Tian Xie Zi and the others, Su Ming would not stay in this place. It was the same for Dark Dawn and Saint Defier. He would return to his homeland and Ninth Summit's sect. Over there … he would spend his final hundreds of years and prevent what had happened in the Heavenly Incense Rune from becoming reality.
'Old Man Extermination, I need him to make a fatal mistake. As long as he makes this mistake, then no matter what his final plan is … this mistake will be a foreshadowing! 'If he doesn't make a mistake, then I will make him make one!' Su Ming moved forward calmly. He was already used to the loud bangs beside him. He might not have seemed to be moving quickly, but with his level of cultivation, it did not take long for him to arrive at the spot the boy had mentioned. It was also the spot Su Ming's will had seen before — the gap in the Vast Expanse.
From the distance, the gap looked like it had been torn apart. Its edges were irregular, and there was a vast expanse beyond it. It was gray, and there was no end to it. There were thin layers of fog tumbling about, as if there were mysteries hidden within.
The closer Su Ming got to the gap, the thicker the aura of the Vast Expanse became. A normal cultivator's cultivation base would definitely be greatly affected at that moment. Only a powerful warrior like the boy could persevere and step into the Vast Expanse to see the world outside.
With a calm expression, Su Ming walked until he was close to the gap. When he stood there, he stared at the Vast Expanse beyond and fell silent.
Based on what the boy had said, the ancient ship was hidden there. Then, it could be imagined that … Old Man Extermination was also looking at him.
"You don't want to meet me, do you?" Su Ming asked faintly.
"Or perhaps you believe that the time has not come for us to meet." Su Ming turned around. With his back turned towards the gap, he stared into space.
At that moment, Old Man Extermination was sitting cross-legged on the hidden ancient ship in space. He was also looking at Su Ming. The two of them seemed to be in different worlds, but their gazes met.
"Since you don't want to show yourself, then I won't force you," Su Ming said slowly. As his voice echoed in space, it did not drown out the loud bangs. Instead, it seemed to have fused with them, causing others to be unable to hear him clearly.
"But …" Su Ming lifted his left hand and lowered his head to look at his palm lines. Gradually, he clenched his left hand into a fist and slowly stretched it out in the direction of space, as if he was going to push forward.
When he pressed down, the thunderous rumble that had been echoing in this place for a long time turned into a moment of true silence. At that moment, all the sounds in the world disappeared.
This situation lasted for about the span of three breaths. After that, everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. Su Ming pulled his left hand back and did not say another word. When he turned around, he took a swift step towards the Vast Expanse.
His goal in this place was Old Man Extermination, but since that person had hidden himself, it was clear that he would not want to meet Su Ming no matter what. If that was the case … then Su Ming would head towards his other goal.
And that was … to test just how many dangers and dangers there were in the Vast Expanse, the place where Harmonious Morus Alba's feathers flew. Su Ming wanted to personally experience it, and he also … wanted to see the Harmonious Morus Alba he was in from the outside!
With one step forward, Su Ming turned into a long arc. With determination, he closed in on the gap. With a flash, for the first time in his life … he rushed out of Harmonious Morus Alba's world and stepped into the Vast Expanse.
At that moment, even Su Ming's calm heart stirred. This feeling could not be described. It was a form of surpassing others, a sublimation, and he stepped into a truly unfamiliar world!
After all, what he sensed from the divine abilities in the past was different from what he experienced right then.
The instant Su Ming stepped into the Vast Expanse, a glint appeared in Old Man Extermination's eyes while he was hidden beside the gap. When he lowered his head, he saw a clear palm print on the wooden monument at the bow of the ship. There was originally a wooden monument there.
At first glance, it looked incredibly clear, but when Su Ming took a closer look, he found that the palm lines could not be seen. However, Old Man Extermination could sense the murderous aura contained in the palm print with just one glance.
That murderous aura was so thick that it nearly gained corporeal form. It exuded a great threat, and even Old Man Extermination could not ignore it, because Su Ming had already gained an epiphany that could cause him danger.
It was just a palm print. Forget about what was contained in it, just its appearance alone was enough to tell him one thing. It was not that Su Ming could not find the hidden ancient ship!
Besides, the threat contained in the palm print and the powerful presence spreading out from it fused together to form Su Ming's silent words.
His words were silent, and it was a signal that could only be understood.
"Don't provoke you, huh?" Old Man Extermination mumbled, and a cold sneer appeared at the corners of his lips.
"You've only lived for half an era of this aeon. As expected, you're stupid. Even if you've reached this level of cultivation, your mind is still immature.
"Is there any use in this sort of threat..? If I truly don't provoke you because of this threat, then I'll be nothing but a joke.
"And it's precisely because of this palm print that I said you're stupid. Su Ming, this is the same as giving me a sword that can kill you!" Old Man Extermination stared at the palm print, and a smile appeared at the corners of his lips. He lifted his right hand and swung his arm. Immediately, the indistinct state in the palm print was forcefully chased away to reveal the complete and clear palm lines belonging to Su Ming!
"With these palm lines, I won't need your blood anymore." A dark light shone in Old Man Extermination's eyes. He naturally had his own way to verify whether the palm lines were real.
