The Emperor of Ancient Zang had once placed an incredibly tight seal on the dimensional barrier connecting Ancient Zang and the once glorious world. With the power of the seal, the Tree of Dao Verification, which was the most eye-catching and amazing thing in the once glorious world, was tightly bound in that dimension.
From then on, the tree became Ancient Zang's possession, and it also … became the Enchanted Vessel that protected Ancient Zang's kismet!
The royal family of Ancient Zang practiced the will of kismet, and the Emperor of Ancient Zang had also used the Dao of kismet to reach Boundless Dao Realm. Because of that, the appearance of the Tree of Dao Verification could be said to have caused the royal family's bloodline to shine with even more brilliance.
However … the Emperor of Ancient Zang had not won that battle completely. No one but him knew exactly what had happened, especially when the Emperor of Ancient Zang disappeared many years later and his life plate shattered. All of this showed … just how great of a price he had to pay for it.
If he had not died and his life plate had not shattered, then no matter what drastic change had occurred in the dimension, it would have been impossible for them to break the Emperor of Ancient Zang's seal.
But no matter what … he had already died. Because of that, the only thing that supported the seal in the dimension was the royal family's kismet, but that kismet was not something that only the royal family possessed. One Dao Sect was the sect that the Emperor of Ancient Zang had personally created in the past. It had also inherited kismet, which was why Lin Dong Dong's actions as a Great Dao Paragon and One Dao Sect's change of laws had caused a loud bang in the end.
Su Ming's role in this was even more crucial. He was the one who made the spirit of the Tree of Dao Verification and the child-like voice sense a sense of closeness from him. That closeness woke it up and made it willing to help … all for the sake of returning home.
At that moment, as the first and second layers completely shattered and countless cultivators' bodies were torn apart, their blood was instantly absorbed by the Tree of Dao Verification, causing the huge tree trunk to distort and exude a power that could destroy the world to spread out. That power swept out in all directions and reached the third layer, which had yet to collapse but was still trembling violently. It reached the tree crown, and a roar seemed to come from the Tree of Dao Verification.
"I want to go home!!"
When that voice echoed in the air, it immediately shook the sky and earth. A huge wave of impact instantly tumbled out of the Tree of Dao Verification's crown with loud bangs. Lin Dong Dong was the first to bear the brunt of it. Once the impact crashed into him, blood trickled out of the corners of his mouth. He instantly fell back, and shock appeared on his face. He had already noticed the destruction of the first and second layers of the dimension, and he also noticed that this place had lost all connection with Ancient Zang.
He also noticed that … his connection with One Dao Sect had been severed. In fact, he could not leave the first prince's body, and he was completely trapped in this place.
This caused his face to turn pale. As he retreated swiftly, he looked at the Tree of Dao Verification. Besides astonishment, there was also a hint of … terror that had not appeared in him for countless years!
He was not the only one who reacted that way. The wave of impact tumbled in all directions. It lifted the sky and fell to the ground. The second prince coughed up blood and let out a shrill scream of pain. If the headless figure had not turned around and used his back to withstand the impact, the second prince would have definitely died in an instant with his level of cultivation.
Even so, the second prince was still bleeding nonstop. The headless figure shuddered and was forced tens of thousands of feet back. Only then did he manage to gain a stable footing.
If they were already in such a state, then it was even more so for the other disciples from One Dao Sect and Asura Clan in the third layer. The instant the Tree of Dao Verification shuddered, the cultivators were unable to fight back. Their bodies were instantly torn apart by the distortions of the ripples in space, and their bodies and souls were destroyed.
The only one who was not affected by the impact … was Su Ming!
Su Ming stood on the tree crown. His body swayed along with the tree crown, but he did not sense any form of impact. At that moment, he sat down without any hesitation. His cultivation base was tumbling about in his body. It was the effects of the Phala, and it had already erupted in his body.
The miraculous thing about the Phala was that it could allow a person to reach a breakthrough in their level of cultivation and become a Dao Paragon. Based on Gu Tai's description in the past, this powerful effect would be completed within a few days, but at that moment, Su Ming noticed that there seemed to be some sort of connection between the Phala and his body. He had definitely not absorbed it within a few days … but had absorbed nearly half of it in an instant.
At that moment, Su Ming could already sense how vast the Phala was. The juice from the Phala stirred up raging waves in his body, and they looked as if they had been set on fire. They roared continuously in Su Ming's body, and in an instant, they filled all the veins in his body, causing the third eye at the center of his brow to open.
It revealed a sea of fire that surged into the sky!
Su Ming's four complete Dao Spirits sat in the sea of fire and seemed to be trembling. The fifth Dao Spirit, which was still in an illusory state, also started distorting violently at that moment.
Invisible booms echoed continuously in Su Ming's body, and they grew stronger with each passing moment. In the end, it was as if Su Ming's body had turned into a huge drum. Every single time it trembled, it would cause his entire body to roar.
The power of the Phala was so terrifying that it caused Su Ming to bleed from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered. However … the more he persevered, the crazier he felt as if there was not a single part of his body that did not hurt.
He wanted to kill, wanted to attack, wanted to vent his anger, but it was not the time. Su Ming had a vague understanding that the power of the Phala could allow a person to become a Dao Paragon, and the main point was to endure it. The longer he could endure it, the more shocking the power that would erupt from him would be.
Lin Dong Dong and the second prince saw it clearly. Killing intent appeared in Lin Dong Dong's eyes, but there was also an indescribable terror in them. He was naturally not afraid of Su Ming, but of the Tree of Dao Verification. The dimension in the place had been destroyed, and he had lost his path back to Ancient Zang.
However, he clearly could not accept it. At that moment, he turned around and completely ignored Su Ming. He turned into a long arc and left swiftly, intending to search for traces that would allow him to rush out of this place and return to Ancient Zang.
As for the second prince, he could not accept it. His heart was filled with distortions, and his eyes were bloodshot. He glared at Su Ming, and madness appeared on his face.
He could not accept that the Phala had been taken away by Su Ming, and he could not accept that Su Ming was absorbing the power of the Phala at that moment. He had Asura Clan's full support, and he had been taken in as Progenitor Xiu Luo's disciple. He was the second prince of Ancient Zang's royal family!
There was no way he could accept it. That was why even if Lin Dong Dong left, he could not leave. He wanted to kill Su Ming. He wanted to refine him, and from there, he could retrieve the power of the Phala and devour it!
In fact, at that moment, he no longer wanted to refine it. A look as if he wanted to devour someone appeared on his face. He wanted to devour Su Ming and seize back the power of the Phala that he believed belonged to him.
However … with the Tree of Dao Verification around and the impact coming from it, it made it difficult for him to do so. Yet even so, the second prince's madness burned like flames.
The moment Lin Dong Dong left, the Tree of Dao Verification swayed even more furiously. Its trunk moved, and the countless branches on the tree crown trembled, causing the world to show signs of collapse. The sky shattered, and the ground cracked. It was as if the apocalypse had arrived.
"I … want to go home!" When the child-like voice roared again, the booming sounds from the Tree of Dao Verification shook the sky and earth. Countless branches immediately split from the ancient tree and formed two huge hands that looked like the Tree of Dao Verification. They seized the sky and tore it to the sides!
With it, the world roared, and the destruction of the world became even more severe. However … the sky could be torn apart, and space could be torn apart, but it could not tear apart the dimension in this place!
And if it could not tear apart the dimension, it would mean that it could not open the door to the once glorious world.
The second prince let out a piercing roar. As he spoke, he lifted his right hand, and a helmet immediately appeared on his palm. There were two horns on the helmet, and it looked incredibly ferocious. Once he lifted it, the second prince put it on his head.
In an instant, his roar shook the sky and earth. His body continued growing, and in the blink of an eye, he grew to be one hundred something feet tall. Judging by the looks of it, that was not his limit.
"Asura Ghost Dao, with the blood of the royal family running through my veins, I will nourish the ghosts in the world … gather together!" Even as the words left his mouth, the second prince threw his head back and roared. He lifted his right hand, which transformed into something that looked like a ghost claw. His skin was green, and his nails were razor-sharp. Furthermore, a vicious bone spike had sprouted out of his right arm.
His left arm also changed, and his body grew to about two hundred feet tall. His presence surged into the sky, and he was already infinitesimally close to that of a Dao Paragon. At that moment, his expression twisted, and he let out a pained roar.
"Wuhou! Bring me forward! " At the instant he said those words, the headless man moved swiftly. He seized the second prince, and a three-colored screen of light appeared around him. It surrounded the area, and as he rushed forward, he withstood the astonishing power of the Tree of Dao Verification's swaying and charged towards Su Ming.
When he closed in, cracks immediately appeared on the headless man's body. The three-colored screen of light around him distorted as if it was about to shatter. When he was about one thousand feet away from Su Ming, the three-colored screen of light crumbled, and a muffled bang came from the headless man's body. He grabbed the second prince and threw him at Su Ming.
When the second prince roared and charged towards Su Ming, the headless man sat down cross-legged. His cultivation base spread out with a bang and enveloped the area. With his power alone, he fought against the Tree of Dao Verification … so that the second prince could have a little time to attack.
Almost at the instant the second prince was about to devour Su Ming with madness and killing intent, Su Ming lifted his head. When he opened his eyes, a thick, blood-red light shone in them.
"It's time for us to come to an end!" Su Ming shuddered. It was the intense pain caused by the booming sounds in his body. At that moment, he had already reached his limit. When the second prince arrived … he would be met with Su Ming's explosive power!
