As Sun Shan roared out the chant in his heart, the presence of his life burning spreading out from his empty body immediately started changing based on some sort of law in the world around him.
This change seemed to be resonating with the clouds in the sky, the stars, the wind around him, the terrain on the ground, and everything else. It also formed a close connection with the Rune formed by the eight Rune spikes in Sun Shan's body.
It was as if Sun Shan's body had turned into an invisible void at that instant. That void was connected to an unknown number of tens of thousands of lis away, causing Sun Shan's body to turn into a medium that connected space, turning into a point where Nascent Divinities could move through!
Sun Shan was laughing coldly in his heart. He believed that this plan he prepared was absolutely foolproof. Unless Su Ming did not believe in him at all and immediately interrupted him right after he started and killed him, then as long as Su Ming was skeptical, Sun Shan had complete confidence that he could make Su Ming walk step by step into the land of death he had set up.
Everything he had done previously was for the final moment. While Su Ming's mind was focused on the opening of the cave abode, he would erupt with all his power. He only needed an instant. Even if Su Ming noticed it later on, it would be useless!
However … all the things in his imagination usually did not go according to plan in reality. Just like at that moment, when Sun Shan was shouting the chant in his heart and asking his Master's Nascent Divinity to use the connection point to descend into his body, Su Ming, who he originally thought would be looking at the opening of the cave abode, did not look the way he expected. Instead … he was looking at Sun Shan coldly.
There was a hint of derision in that aloof gaze. Once Sun Shan noticed it clearly, he shuddered. To him, Su Ming's gaze was like a sharp blade that had pierced through his body. It was as if all the secrets in his heart had been exposed under that gaze, and there was nothing he could hide.
'Impossible! It's impossible for him to have noticed my thoughts! There was not a single flaw in what I did just now! ' Sun Shan's heart let out a loud thump. He trembled, but at that moment, he did not have the time to think too much. He lifted his hands swiftly, formed a seal, and struck his body.
With a boom, Sun Shan's body trembled violently. A tremendous pressure suddenly spread out from his body, as if a strand of divine sense had appeared out of nowhere. That divine sense rapidly swelled, quickly forming a Nascent Divinity that occupied Sun Shan's body and took control of him.
Right up to the end, Su Ming did not stop him. This action caused Sun Shan to be filled with ecstasy, but at the same time, he also became uncertain. The feeling that Su Ming could not see through his thoughts rose in his heart once again.
"Have you finished descending?" Su Ming asked faintly.
At the instant he said those words, Sun Shan's heart immediately trembled violently. All his luck had completely crumbled at this moment. He understood that the other party had clearly known what he was thinking, but he had still asked him to complete this descent. If the other party was not a fool, then he was definitely extremely confident!
He was confident that even if he invited his master to descend, the other party would still be able to suppress him!
But Sun Shan's awakening to these thoughts was a little too late. Almost at the moment these thoughts appeared in his head, his consciousness disappeared with a bang and fell into deep sleep. His divine ability had already been completed, and the divine sense that had appeared out of nowhere in his body had already grown so big that it had already gathered together to form a Nascent Divinity.
He closed his eyes and tilted his head downwards. His presence also disappeared without a trace along with his consciousness, but the moment his consciousness disappeared, a terrifying, mighty pressure swiftly replaced his presence and erupted forth from his body. However, it was limited to a circular area of ten thousand feet, a telling sign that it did not want to spread too much out and be discovered by those from Evil Spirit Sect.
"Sir, you were so arrogant that you watched me descend … How do you expect me to repay your kindness?" A hoarse voice tumbled out of Sun Shan's mouth slowly with his head lowered. His eyes flew open, and a brilliant light shone in them like lightning. He lifted his head.
As this person lifted his head, his body started rapidly aging. Almost in the blink of an eye, the person who appeared before Su Ming was no longer the young Sun Shan, but an old man who exuded an ancient air. His skin was covered in wrinkles, and his hair had turned gray. A powerful presence that did not belong to Sun Shan was spreading out from his body in an increasingly deeper manner.
"If you want to repay me, then tell me how many Daos you can fuse with your Hidden Execution of Justice Art." Su Ming's expression remained the same as ever as he spoke flatly.
Cracking sounds came from Sun Shan's body at that moment, and right before his eyes, Sun Shan's Master slowly stood up. His eyes were like lightning, and as he looked at Su Ming, he suddenly started laughing.
"I see, so you covet Hidden Dragon Sect's Hidden Execution of Justice Art. I can fuse six Daos into it!" At the same time the old man said those words, he took a step towards Su Ming. The instant his foot landed in the air, a powerful ripple spread out from his foot and swept through the area with a howl. It was as if the air had turned into a pool of water, and his foot had turned into a stone that had stirred up ripples.
Those ripples might have seemed normal, but in truth, each of them contained the power of the old man's cultivation base. When they spread out and closed in on Su Ming, he lifted his right foot as well and took a step forward.
At the instant his foot landed, the same ripple spread out and crashed into the ripples stirred up by the old man's cultivation base. Continuous booming sounds reverberated in the air, and the old man let out a muffled groan. He staggered a few steps backwards, and when he lifted his head, his expression changed.
"Great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm!" The old man's pupils shrank.
Su Ming moved, but he did not move back. He looked at the old man and spoke languidly. "The early stage of Ascendance!"
"You're Man Ya? Wushuang, Xue Sha, or Tian Qi, which one of the Scarlet Thunder Heavens is it? " The old man stared at Su Ming and said five names in succession. Su Ming was familiar with Chi Lei Tian, but he had never heard of the other four.
However, if the old man could say the names when he noticed that Su Ming was a Berserker who had attained great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm, then he must have the same level of cultivation!
'These five people should be the five Berserkers who have attained great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm in Eastern Wastelands. Besides Chi Lei Tian, the other person should be the All Entities Clan's Progenitor who once fought against me across the sea. '
Su Ming did not answer the old man's question. As his foot landed, a glint appeared in his eyes, and he took another step forward. At the instant he did so, a vast amount of power erupted from his body and fused into his foot, causing the weather in the sky within ten thousand feet to change, and a gigantic vortex to appear.
At the same time, a huge foot manifested in midair. That step and that divine ability was the God of Berserkers' Seven Steps!
The old man, Sun Shan's Master, retreated swiftly. He was cursing in his heart at that moment. It was his Nascent Divinity that had come this time, not his real self, but if his Nascent Divinity was injured or shattered, then it would be a disaster for him.
He did not expect that the enemy he would run into when his disciple summoned him would be a powerful Berserker who had attained great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm. If he had known this earlier, he would not have cared about his disciple's summoning and his survival, even if that disciple had the rare potential to search for dragons.
Even if the presence of the Bright Yang Stone had caused him to ignore everything else and descend here, all of this was not worth it in his eyes to fight against a Berserker who had attained great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm!
After all, it did not matter whether it was his disciple or the Bright Yang Stone, they were both external objects. Besides, the Bright Yang Stone did not contain his soul, so he did not need to worry about his life.
As he retreated, his expression turned dark. When he lifted his hands, he bit the tip of his tongue and coughed up a mouthful of blood. As he formed a seal with his hands and pointed forward, that blood immediately spread out and turned into a blood shadow that charged forward.
Soon after, that blood shadow moved forward and turned into two. Then, with another move, it turned into four. When nearly a hundred blood shadows appeared in the world, they charged towards Su Ming and the foot that was stomping down from the sky.
Su Ming did not stop for even a single moment. He took seven steps forward in succession, and once he took those seven steps, the world rumbled. A powerful wave of impact swept outwards from the center of the place. As the loud booming sounds echoed, Sun Shan's Master's face turned stark pale. As he swiftly retreated, blood trickled out of the corners of his mouth, and shock appeared on his face.
'He's not a Berserker who has attained great completion in the Berserker Soul Realm, but is halfway into Life Cultivation Realm! He's equivalent to an Illusory Yin Stage and a Corporeal Yang Stage! ' The old man retreated without any hesitation. He no longer had any desire to continue fighting. At that moment, his only thought was to widen the distance between them and fight for a chance to leave this body!
However, before he could retreat several hundreds of feet, Su Ming charged out from the impact and the collapse of the body like an arrow. Once he rushed out, he lifted his right hand, and wisps of black smoke immediately spread out from the air around him to turn into the Undertaker of Evil's Spear in his hand. Once he grabbed the spear, he threw it forward.
With a piercing hum, the Undertaker of Evil's Spear turned into a long black arc that charged towards the old man. The old man's pupils shrank once again. He was at a disadvantage because he had descended and did not have any Enchanted Treasures on him. The difference in their combat abilities was too great. When he saw the long spear closing in on him, he lifted his hands swiftly and formed a strange seal. Then, like a vase, he pushed it forward.
With it, a vase with flowing streams of light immediately manifested before him and crashed into the long spear. With a loud bang, the vase shattered, and the long spear pierced through the old man's right arm.
As the thunderous rumbles echoed, the old man's right arm was crushed into a bloody mess. His face turned even paler, but he gritted his teeth and retreated once more. As he retreated, his presence would weaken slightly with every step he took.
"Six Steps to Soul Return!" The old man had absolutely no will to fight at that moment. His only thought was to return to the Hidden Dragon. Once he took three steps back, his Qi had already weakened by a large margin. Just as he was about to take his fourth step, Su Ming closed in on him! (To be continued.
