It was the first time Su Ming opened his eyes in the forty something years he had been meditating. It was the first time he had opened his eyes ever since he cleared the eighteen formations!
Even when he went to the Council of Elders, he had only sent his shadow body there. Even when the young man with Dashing Eyebrows had insulted him with all sorts of words, Su Ming had not opened his eyes. Even when all his shadow bodies had been destroyed, he still did not open his eyes!
Only at that moment did he open his eyes for the first time in many years, revealing a dark light in his pupils. Almost at the instant he opened his eyes and his gaze met that of the young man with the dashing eyebrows, the expression of the young man with the dashing eyebrows suddenly changed. At that instant, he felt as if a million bolts of lightning had exploded in his mind at the same time and turned into a powerful rumble. For some reason, his heart let out a thump, and an indescribable sense of life and death instantly enveloped his mind.
That sense of danger appeared incredibly suddenly, so much so that Tian Jiao Zi did not even have time to react to it. By then, Su Ming had already stood up. At the instant he did so, the sword cut down on Su Ming's head with a bang, but when it was seven inches away from his head, it seemed to have been blocked by some invisible power and could not sink even an inch further.
"Explode!" As a powerful warrior in the second level of Dao Divinity Realm, Tian Jiao Zi had an incredibly rich amount of experience in battles. At that moment, he let out a low shout without any hesitation and took a step forward to charge at Su Ming.
With a loud bang that surged into the sky, the sword crumbled and exploded. It turned into countless shards that instantly submerged Su Ming. At the same time, the young man with the dashing eyebrows rushed into the distortions in space formed by the shards, but at the instant he did so, a shocked cry of surprise rang out, and the young man tumbled backwards. When he was a thousand feet away, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and disbelief appeared on his face.
When he looked over, the distortions formed by the shards of the shattered sword looked as if time had stopped. All of them floated in the air and did not move. Su Ming's expression was calm. Once he walked out, he stood there, and not a single shadow could be seen beneath him.
A presence that caused Tian Jiao Zi's heart to be apprehensive was gathering madly around Su Ming's body.
'I have to thank you. It was because of your appearance that I fused with my seven shadows and gathered together … my Dao Shadow! The feeling of fusing with the Dao Shadow is not bad. " Once Su Ming cast a glance at his body, he smiled faintly and suddenly took a step forward. In an instant, he appeared in front of Tian Jiao. When he lifted his right hand, he swung it casually, and Tian Jiao's expression changed swiftly. When he lifted his hands and formed a seal, countless sword lights shone behind him and turned into one million swords that charged towards Su Ming.
"Child's play. You overestimate yourself. This is your disaster. You … will not be able to get through it," Su Ming said flatly. What he said … were the words the young man with Dashing Eyebrows had said previously.
In the face of the incoming one million sword glares, Su Ming only swung his right hand, and the world immediately roared. The sword glares instantly froze in midair as if they had been frozen, and Su Ming's right hand had already pressed against the young man's chest, which was about to retreat with a shocked expression on his face.
At the instant Su Ming's palm closed in, more than one thousand layers of overlapping screens of light appeared around the young man's body, but when Su Ming's palm touched them, they shattered layer by layer. In the blink of an eye, they shattered completely, allowing Su Ming's palm to land on the young man's chest.
When a loud bang rang out, the young man let out a shrill scream of pain. His body tumbled backwards like a kite with its string snapped. When he was forced thousands of feet away, light shone on his chest and gathered together to form a shattered crystal. When it turned into powder, it looked as if it had withstood the attack in his place. Disbelief appeared on Tian Jiao Zi's face. It was difficult for him to accept that the third prince, whom he had bullied as if he had just killed a moment ago, had become so strong that it was hard for him to believe it. This change had happened too quickly, and the contrast was too great, causing Tian Jiao Zi to feel as if he was in a dream.
However, the shattering of the Life Protection Crystal served as a constant reminder to him. When Tian Jiao Zi sucked in a sharp breath, he could not hide the shock in his eyes.
"You … What level of cultivation do you have?!"
"My level of cultivation …" Su Ming's expression was calm. He closed his eyes slightly, and when he reopened them, his hair moved without wind. His robes fluttered violently, and his aura erupted with a bang at an astonishing speed. It shocked the young man with the dashing eyebrows so much that he seemed to have stopped breathing.
It was not the first level of Dao Divinity Realm, and neither was it the second level of Dao Divinity Realm. It was … Dao Spirit Realm, which was in the third level of Dao Divinity Realm!
The entire fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky trembled at that instant. The sky tumbled about, the ground roared, and the thirteen mountains trembled simultaneously. It was as if Su Ming had become the most dazzling sun in the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky at that moment.
At the instant his aura and his cultivation base spread out, it looked as if they wanted to freeze all the laws in the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky. In fact … there was even a hint of … the power to reverse time in those laws!
This scene not only caused Tian Jiao Zi's expression to change drastically, even the pupils of all the people in the seventh layer of Sky Beyond the Sky shrank. When laughter tumbled out of Xu Zhong Fan's mouth, a hint of a smile appeared at the corners of Gu Tai's lips.
Across them was Sen Mu. He was still sitting cross-legged, but his expression had turned slightly sour. There was even a hint of shock in his eyes.
He was shocked that Su Ming's level of cultivation was at the third level of Dao Spirit Realm, and by the looks of it, he had just reached a breakthrough not long ago. His cultivation base was not stable yet. Perhaps more accurately speaking … this was not a breakthrough, but a Dao Shadow that had gathered together to forcefully push him into Quasi-Dao Spirit Realm!
He still needed to go through the Dao Spirits' Voice to Heaven before he could truly reach Dao Spirit Realm, where he would become one with the spirits of the world! But no matter what, the power that erupted from Su Ming at that moment was so strong that Tian He could not hope to fight against it.
What caused Sen Mu's pupils to shrink was the hint of time stopping and time reversing in the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky when Su Ming's presence spread out. But Sen Mu did not care about the frozen time in the fifth layer. What he cared about … was the hint of power that allowed time to reverse.
If Sen Mu was in such a state, then it was even more so for Tian Jiao Zi, who was facing Su Ming at that moment. At the instant Su Ming's cultivation base was completely revealed, shock and astonishment filled his heart.
He could never have imagined that what he had thought to be a simple slaughter would turn out to be such an unacceptable turn of events. He was supposed to be an expert, and he was supposed to excitedly kill the Third Prince to increase his own luck. That was how things should have turned out. But … but things had turned out this way!
The person he originally wanted to kill had actually become a powerful existence that surpassed him. From a strong person, he directly became a weakling. This scene made the young man with dashing eyebrows feel that all his previous words, all his excitement, all his arrogance, had instantly become a childish and indescribable joke!
He had actually thought that he was so strong that he could kill a powerful warrior in Dao Spirit Realm? He had actually been arrogant and domineering in front of a powerful warrior in Dao Spirit Realm!
All of this instantly turned into a cold chill. Madness appeared on Tian Jiao Zi's face, and as he roared, he retreated. He lifted his hands and struck the center of his brows. Immediately, veins popped up on his skin, and cracks appeared on his physical body.
"Origin Dao Sword!" A hoarse roar tumbled out of Tian Jiao Zi's mouth, and booming sounds came from his body. Blood-red swords instantly charged out of the cracks on his body and gathered together to form a huge blood-red sword in front of him. It stirred up a sea of blood that surged into the sky, and it charged towards Su Ming.
Tian Jiao Zi had decided to fight with everything he had!
"Your Art isn't bad, but it's a pity … that it's too weak." A hint of derision appeared in Su Ming's eyes. At the instant he spoke, he lifted his right hand and pointed at the sky.
"Winter's Shadow!" Su Ming had executed this Art with his Shadow Body, and Tian Jiao Zi had mocked him with his previous words. Yet when Su Ming executed it, the young man's face instantly turned pale.
The entire sky … turned black at that moment. The black sky looked as if it was about to shatter and fall off. Countless snowflakes floated down, but they were not white … but the color of night!
When the black snow floated down from the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky, Su Ming brought his right hand down and pointed at Tian Jiao Zi.
"This is the Winter's Disaster of Heaven that I will give you." At the instant Su Ming said those words flatly, all the black snow that filled the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky froze for a moment before charging towards Tian Jiao Zi with a piercing whistle.
It was as if the shadow of the sky had descended and wanted to assimilate Tian Jiao Zi so that he would become a part of the shadow of the night sky!
"Progenitor, save me!" Tian Jiao Zi let out a shrill scream of pain. The speed of the blood sword in front of him increased exponentially. It shone with a blood-red light that surged into the sky, causing the sea of blood behind him to roar. He formed a seal with his left hand and struck his chest. When he coughed up blood, the thirteen mountains around him roared, and thirteen blood swords appeared. They charged towards the black snow that swept towards him from all directions. Tian Jiao Zi grabbed one of the blood swords and charged towards Su Ming.
When he rushed over, the thirteen blood swords fused into the sword in his hand. His power of the second level of Dao Divinity Realm erupted from his body like it was at its peak, causing his speed to become faster.
However, the sea of blood behind him was instantly covered by the black snow and sealed in ice. As he charged forward, his body was enveloped by the howling black snow storm. Even his shrill cries were drowned out by the howls of the wind and snow.
Su Ming's expression remained the same. He did not move and stared coldly at Tian Jiao Zi closing in on him. When the tip of the sword was ten inches away from the center of Su Ming's brows, Tian Jiao Zi's body froze. His eyes went wide, and he stared at Su Ming with a listless expression. Cracking sounds came from his body, and it was covered by black snow. When even his listless eyes were covered by the black snow, his body … seemed to have fused with the darkness.
Su Ming's expression was indifferent. He stood in midair and lifted his head. His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky to look at the seventh layer. He wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed!
"Without destruction, there can be no construction. Thank you for your guidance, Sect Elder."
