"I didn't say anything about Abyss Builders. I'm angry, so I won't tell you!" A smug look appeared on the girl's face. She cast a glance at the old man in the smoke ring, and a look of pity appeared on her face.
"It's a pity for such a good seedling. He's so young, but he already has such astonishing comprehensive abilities. With his heart as his drawing board and his soul as his brush, he copied the changes in the world!" As the girl spoke, she cast a glance at the smoke ring again.
The old man's face might be indistinct, but it could be seen that his expression was the same as ever. Not a single hint of change could be seen on his face, as if he was completely unbothered by someone with such astonishing comprehensive abilities.
"Copying the changes in his heart and soul isn't much," the old man said slowly.
"With power equivalent to those in Ascendance, he fought against a cultivator in the Second Step. He schemed against them, and even if he didn't win in the end, he managed to put that person in the Second Step into a pathetic state, and he even managed to escape," the girl said again.
This time, the old man in the smoke ring remained silent for a moment before he said, "He's a schemer. There might not be many who can fight against someone in a lower level of cultivation, but it's not rare either."
"Then what if he's young and has already shown signs of the Abyss … that he can reverse the flow of time?" the girl said with a light chuckle, her expression as calm as ever.
Yet once she said those words, the smoke ring instantly distorted, and after a moment, the old man's voice traveled forth swiftly.
"Reverse the flow of time?"
"That's right. Based on my observations and my judgment, there's a nine-tenths of a chance that he's the Abyss Builders who are rumored to have gone extinct tens of thousands of years ago in the Emperor of Abyss' True World!" the girl said smugly as she looked at the smoke ring.
This time, the smoke ring remained silent for an even longer period of time, until the old man's seemingly calm but slightly excited voice traveled forth.
"Are you certain that he's an Abyss Builder and that he has the signs of the Abyss?"
The girl did not speak. As she lifted her right hand, a jade slip flew out. That jade slip floated into the circle of smoke and shone with a dazzling light. Within that light was a scene of Su Ming fighting against Di Tian and Shen Dong fighting against him.
"Where is he?" After some time, a low voice immediately came from the smoke ring. As the smoke ring distorted, the meditating old man could be vaguely seen standing up.
"Ah, how infuriating. For the future of the Emperor of Abyss' True World, I would rather sacrifice my own future happiness and go out to search for your successor.
"Do you think it's easy for me? And he was misunderstood by others!
Forget it, cough cough. Ten Nether Piercer Swords, one hundred Netherworld Pills, three hundred Spirit Dispersing Powder, and one chance at the Netherworld Pool. "The young girl counted with her fingers as if she was suffering a great loss.
"You little girl … Fine, I'll give all of these to you. Tell me where the child is!" When the old man's helpless voice rang out, the young woman beamed with joy. She produced another jade slip and tossed it into the smoke ring.
With a flash of ripples, the smoke ring and the jade slip inside instantly disappeared without a trace.
Within the Emperor of Abyss' Expanse Cosmos, which was one of the four Great True Worlds, was a black continent floating in a vast space. There was no end to that continent, and there was no sign of human habitation on it. There was not a single hint of life within it.
In the center of the continent was a desolate wasteland. Within the endless wasteland was a house, and at that moment, it was silently pushed open.
An old man dressed in a long white robe walked out. His entire body was indistinct and his features could not be seen clearly, but the hint of expectation in his eyes was clear.
"He's indeed an Abyss Builder … I didn't expect that there would be Abyss Builders in this world … The only troublesome thing is whether he's in True Morning Dao World or not … But even if he's in True Morning Dao World's Yin Death Region, I might still have to go there and see for myself whether this person is real or not!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward, fused into the darkness, and disappeared without a trace.
Almost at the same time the old man left, in another spot in the Emperor of Abyss' True World was a black galaxy filled with stars. They surrounded an unknown area, and they shone with a brilliant light. Even if someone was very far away, they could still see them vaguely.
There were plenty of cultivators moving about in the endless galaxy … In the depths of the galaxy was a lake, and at the center of it was an island. At that moment, there was a woman sitting cross-legged on the island. There was a black veil over her face, and there were stars shining in her eyes. Before her was a floating vortex, and within it was the girl with the yellow dragon's adorable and naive expression.
"Big Sister Fu Shui … One hundred Banyan Water Pills, five hundred Milky Way Stellar Water, and you have to uphold justice for me and cancel my engagement with the Emperor of Abyss' True World's fourth son. Then, I'll tell you where this Abyss Builder is. I'll be the first to tell you. If you refuse, I'll immediately tell Old Ming."
The woman with the veil frowned and glared at the girl in the vortex, but the doting look in her eyes could not be hidden away no matter how stern she was.
When the vortex disappeared, a pensive look appeared in her eyes.
'There are still Abyss Builders in this world … Abyss Builders … Tens of thousands of years ago, the last of them died in the Raging Disaster …' When she said the words Raging Disaster, a hint of terror appeared briefly on the woman's face.
'It is said that the entire Emperor of Abyss' True World was created by them. If this person is truly an Abyss Builder, then he will be the greatest treasure to the Emperor of Abyss' True World! ' The woman stood up slowly, and as her eyes sparkled, she took a step forward and disappeared into the air.
As for Su Ming, when dawn broke, he charged towards Hidden Dragon Sect's branch like a ghost. In his hand was a jade slip, and it was the item left behind in Hidden Dragon Sect's storage bag.
The location of Hidden Dragon Sect's cave abode under Thousand River Valley was clearly stated on that jade slip. All the items that they did not manage to take away in time during the sudden disaster were left there.
As Su Ming floated forward, he did not make a single sound, but he could still occasionally hear the faint screams of pain coming from within Hidden Dragon Sect. Those were the people from Evil Spirit Sect trying to kill every last one of them as they plundered their belongings.
Furthermore, the surroundings had been sealed into a cage. Aside from the old man surnamed Gu, who might be able to escape with heavy injuries with his cultivation, the others would not be able to escape the seal even if they escaped the Thousand River Valley.
That was why the faint screams of pain coming from all around him were also the sounds of the Hidden Dragon Sect disciples who had found a place to hide before they were brutally killed.
Su Ming's expression was calm. He did not have any overflowing sympathy to stop this slaughter. This had nothing to do with him. This was a slaughter within the Immortals' sect. Su Ming floated forward quietly until he reached the bottom of Thousand River Valley, which was the canyon under Hidden Dragon Sect's suspension bridge. Then, he stopped.
Once he took a closer look at the jade slip in his hand, Su Ming spread his divine sense outwards. After a moment, he charged down the canyon once again. Before long, he stopped once again, and his gaze fell on the mountain wall before him.
Everything there looked normal. It was covered in moss, and there was an ancient air to the mountain stones, a telling sign that they had been here for a long time. There was not a hint of any ripples of spiritual energy in the area, and neither were there any signs that the place had been excavated.
As he stood there, a strange light appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He lifted his right hand, and just as he was about to form a seal, a frown appeared between his brows. Once he lifted his head and looked above him, he no longer bothered himself with it. Instead, as he formed a seal, he continuously struck the mountain stone that did not seem to have anything strange about it.
After a moment, as the sounds of air being sliced traveled forth from above and as Su Ming continued casting those seals, the mountain stone that seemed normal immediately let out rumbling sounds, and as if a veil had been lifted, the moss disappeared, revealing a sealed cave abode.
There was a groove on the door to the cave abode, and it was the size of a jade slip. Without any hesitation, Su Ming threw the jade slip in his hand and pressed it into the groove.
Immediately, rumbling sounds reverberated in the air and the door slowly opened.
The instant the door opened, the sounds of air being sliced from above became even more rapid, and eerie words traveled into the air faintly.
"Boy, where's the treasure you spoke of? If I find out that you dared to fool us, then my Heavenly Treasure Streamer still lacks a main spirit, and I'll torture you until you die with a grudge! "
That voice sounded rather familiar to Su Ming. After a moment of pensive silence, he remembered that it belonged to the thin Inner Sect disciple who had wanted to perform the Blood Sacrifice on him on the flying Enchanted Vessel.
Su Ming ignored him and walked towards the cave abode. The instant he stepped into the cave abode, the fog above him immediately tumbled about, and three long arcs charged out from within.
The person in the lead was the thin Inner Sect disciple. The eyes of his two fellow disciples behind him were bloodshot, and with greed and anticipation, they followed closely behind him. One of them had a trembling young man under his armpit. Judging by the young man's clothes, he was a Hidden Dragon Sect disciple.
The instant they appeared from the fog, the thin Inner Sect disciple in the lead saw the opened cave abode on the stone wall, and he also saw Su Ming standing there.
He was momentarily stunned, then immediately started laughing.
"How dare an Outer Sect disciple come here to steal from us? Consider yourself lucky. Your grandpa's Blood Sacrifice has reached its limit today, so get lost!" As the thin Inner Sect disciple laughed coldly, he charged towards Su Ming. In his eyes, Su Ming was not worth mentioning. If he did not move out of the way, then he would just kill him.
What he cared about was the treasure that the Hidden Dragon Sect disciple had spoken of in the cave abode.
The two people behind him looked at Su Ming with cold and aloof gazes. As they charged forward, they had already closed in on Su Ming. Only the young man from Hidden Dragon Sect, who was held under their armpits, stared at the open door with a dumbfounded expression. He noticed the inconspicuous jade slip embedded in the door, and his pupils shrank against his will before he swiftly looked towards Su Ming.
"You're not moving out of the way? "Since you're asking for death, then I'll fulfill your wish, you ant from the Outer Sect!" When the thin Inner Sect disciple closed in and saw Su Ming still standing there, he felt slightly impatient. When he lifted his right hand, he was just about to kill Su Ming, but the moment he lifted his hand, he immediately saw Su Ming's eyes.
They were a pair of calm eyes, so calm that it was terrifying. They were so calm that it was as if even if the world was about to crumble, not a single hint of emotion could be detected within them. They were so calm that once the thin Inner Sect disciple saw them, his heart instinctively trembled.
It had been a few days since he last spoke to the others, and he had been holding it in for a few days …
Today was Singles' Day. Thinking back to the past, he was still a free man … and he could even search for a way to stop being a bachelor on Singles' Day, but now … he could only look at all his bachelor Daoists in envy.
