The thin Inner Sect disciple had extraordinary power, but that was only when compared to his fellow sect members. In Su Ming's eyes, this sort of person had already provoked him twice, and there was no way he would continue letting them off.
His expression was calm, and that calmness was a sign of indifference.
The thin Inner Sect disciple's heart was trembling at that moment. He suddenly sensed a terror he had never sensed before from Su Ming, and it was especially so for those aloof eyes. When they fell on the disciple's pupils, it was as if two sharp swords had pierced through him and rushed into his eyes, seeped into his mind, and pierced his heart. They turned into tens of thousands of bolts of lightning in his body, and they started rumbling at the same time.
The rumbling bolts of lightning shattered his mind and tore apart his soul, causing his breathing to quicken and his eyes to go wide when he was less than five feet away from Su Ming.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood and dyed his robes red, causing the thin Inner Sect disciple to tremble. Countless bloody cracks immediately appeared on his skin, and they continued spreading out. In the blink of an eye, they covered his entire body. An invisible, mighty pressure that he could clearly feel was pressing down on his body like a huge mountain, crushing him to pieces. It was as if his world had completely collapsed at that instant.
His heart pounded madly, until it seemed to be joined together. The emaciated Inner Sect Disciple's face went pale, and a popping sound could be heard coming from within his chest. His heart was unable to withstand the pressure, and instantly exploded.
As his heart exploded, even his organs were crushed under the pressure. His body was reduced to a bloody mess five feet away from Su Ming, and he crumbled to pieces.
His flesh and blood splattered everywhere, but not a single one of them landed on Su Ming. It was as if even if the thin man died, he did not dare get any closer to Su Ming.
Su Ming did not cast any divine abilities when the thin man died. In fact, he did not even lift his hand. He only used the might formed by his presence to suppress the thin man. As Su Ming's level of cultivation increased, this sort of presence could practically turn into corporeal form!
Not far away, the fellow sect members of the two dead skinny men were all dumbfounded, and they were even more confused. However, one of them did not have the young man from Hidden Dragon Sect with him, so he reacted slightly faster. With a pale face, he immediately retreated without any hesitation and turned into a long arc to quickly leave this place.
Terror filled his entire body, and his heart began to tremble. Shock and terror filled his heart, and as he retreated, the only thought in his mind was to flee as far away as he could.
A flash of crimson light swept past him as he fled. Confusion appeared in the escaping man's eyes, and when he wanted to lower his head to look, his head separated from his body and fell into the abyss. His body trembled and fell with him.
A storage bag flew out from the corpse and was swept up by the crimson light. It charged towards Su Ming, and when it floated before him, its figure was revealed. Naturally, it was the small snake!
After a few years, its injuries had healed a lot. Although it still looked a little weak, its body was complete again.
"How much longer are you going to hide?" Su Ming patted the small snake's head. The snake put on a look of enjoyment and wrapped its body around Su Ming's arm.
Su Ming's words were clearly not directed at the small snake. Besides him, there were only two other people in this place. One of them was the stunned Evil Spirit Sect disciple, and the other was the young man from Hidden Dragon Sect he had clamped under his arm.
Almost the instant Su Ming said those words, the Evil Spirit Sect disciple's heart trembled, and he swiftly lowered his head to look at the Hidden Dragon Sect disciple he had clamped between his arms. At the instant he saw a freezing glare flash briefly in the young man's eyes.
This was the last ray of light he saw in his life. In the next breath, the young man from Hidden Dragon Sect lifted his right hand and swung it at lightning speed. Blood gushed out from the Evil Spirit Sect disciple's neck, and with a muffled bang, the Evil Spirit Sect disciple's body was torn to pieces and he fell into the abyss.
As for the young man from Hidden Dragon Sect, he floated in midair with an incredibly grave expression on his face, along with wariness and nervousness. He wrapped his fist in his palm towards Su Ming.
"I am Sun Shan from Hidden Dragon Sect. Greetings, senior … Since you know the way to open the cave abode, and you also have the jade slip for the cave abode … then I will not bother you any longer …" Sun Shan's heart was racing at that moment. As he spoke nervously, he slowly moved back. He could not tell Su Ming's level of cultivation, but if he could make the thin man's entire body crumble without attacking, then Sun Shan could tell that he was at least an existence equivalent to those in Soul Transformation Stage. In fact, there was a high possibility that he was equivalent to those in Ascendance Stage.
Yet right when he took eight steps back, Su Ming cast him a flat glance. With it, Sun Shan's footsteps immediately came to a halt. He forced out a smile, and just as he was about to speak, Su Ming lifted his right hand and swung his arm.
Immediately, a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere and charged towards Sun Shan with a loud whistle. Sun Shan's pupils shrank. He wanted to dodge, but after a moment of hesitation, he stood there and did not move. He simply allowed the wind to close in on him and turn into a whirlwind around his body.
It swept up his body and charged towards Su Ming. It even shot past him and flung him into the cave abode. Eventually, he was pressed against the stone wall in the depths of the cave abode, as if he was sealed!
With a calm expression, Su Ming cast a glance at Sun Shan, who had been flung into the cave abode. If he had fought back just now, then he would have already died. If he did not fight back, then Su Ming was not someone who would kill on sight.
Once he sealed him, Su Ming no longer bothered with him and stepped into the opened cave abode. When he did so, he swung his arm, and the jade slip embedded in the stone door immediately fell off. It turned into a ray of crystalline light that fell into Su Ming's hand. As he entered, the stone door closed with a bang. If anyone looked from the outside, they would see that everything was the same as before, and there was not a single hint of anything amiss.
Su Ming walked into the cave abode with a calm expression on his face. The cave abode was not big. Besides the hall in the center, there were eight other chambers, and each of them was sealed off by a stone door. There was a runic symbol flashing on each of those doors.
Each of the eight runic symbols was different. They shone with waves of dark light, and if anyone looked at them, they would find that each of them contained a different meaning.
It was quiet all around him. Su Ming stood in the hall, and besides the eight stone doors and chambers, there was nothing else around him. Sun Shan, who was frozen on the stone wall before him, was also looking at Su Ming nervously. His heart pounded against his chest, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
He was thankful that he had not chosen to dodge or fight back just now. He believed that his level of cultivation was nothing compared to Su Ming's. If Su Ming wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant. If he had chosen to obey this sort of powerful warrior, then perhaps he would have had a chance of survival.
At that moment, he knew that he had taken the right step. Su Ming did not kill him, but only sealed him. Clearly, he did not want to bring unnecessary trouble to himself if he went out.
As he laughed wryly, Sun Shan sighed in his heart. Even if he went out, he would not dare provoke Su Ming. Yet similarly, he grew even more respectful towards this unfathomable Su Ming.
This respect came from Su Ming's cautiousness and thoughts.
'This old monster has great power, and his thoughts are even more meticulous. He won't allow anything to go out of his control. That's why even if I'm of no importance to him, he still sealed me in this place …
'The seal might be strong, but it didn't cause me any harm. This is also why I won't subconsciously feel too much danger, and I won't struggle recklessly.'
A glint appeared in Sun Shan's eyes. He had always believed that he was a cunning person in Hidden Dragon Sect, and it was only because of his power and caution that he had managed to survive this disaster until now.
'That's not right! I'm afraid that even the reason why he didn't kill me is because he had his own considerations! " Sun Shan's pupils shrank once again, and his heart let out a loud thump against his chest. He quickly lowered his head and carefully checked his entire body, and terror immediately appeared on his face.
Su Ming ignored Sun Shan's wild thoughts. His gaze fell on the first stone door to his left, and a brilliant light appeared in his eyes. He stared at that runic symbol, and a feeling of wind spread out in his heart. In fact, a whirlwind had even appeared out of nowhere around him.
Su Ming had the greatest understanding towards wind. After all, he was the scion of the Wind Berserker. As he sensed it, the light in his eyes grew brighter.
'With just one runic symbol, he managed to stir up the wind in space …'
In the midst of his contemplation, Su Ming looked towards the mark on the stone door of the second chamber. At the instant he focused his attention on it, everything in his world became indistinct except for the mark, and at that instant, he felt a wave of dampness.
He tasted the scent of rain. That rain was light, but there was no end to it … There was also rain falling around him. The rain had appeared suddenly, and when it landed on Su Ming's body, the contemplative look in his eyes became stronger.
After a long while, following his gaze, Su Ming sensed thunder roaring on the door of the third chamber. He also sensed lightning swimming on the mark of the fourth chamber, and a light and power that shook the sky and earth erupted forth from it.
'Wind, rain, thunder, lightning …' Su Ming turned his head around and looked at the chamber to his right. Once he swept his gaze past them, he sensed the exuberant life force of spring, the scorching heat of summer, the intermingling of life force and the aura of death in autumn, and the stillness of winter when snow fell from the sky.
"Spring, summer, autumn, and winter …" Su Ming mumbled, and the light in his eyes grew brighter.
'Let's not talk about the items in these eight chambers for now. These eight runic symbols alone can already be considered treasures! If I can fuse these eight runic symbols into my mind, then it'll be the same as me mastering the power of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, wind, cloud, thunder, and lightning! '
Su Ming lowered his head and lifted his hands. A glint appeared in his eyes.
'Is this a coincidence..? Four of the five fingers on my left hand represent wind, cloud, thunder, and lightning, and four of the five fingers on my right hand represent spring, summer, autumn, and winter …'
A smile appeared on Su Ming's face. With one move, he arrived at the first stone door to his left and sat down cross-legged. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at the runic symbol on the stone door and copied it once again!
