Su Ming was slightly faster than the old man. As he closed in on Sun Shan, he closed in on him like a long arc. The eyes of the old man who had occupied Sun Shan's body sparkled at that moment. He might still be three steps away from having his Nascent Divinity leave, but with Su Ming's speed, it was impossible for him to complete those three steps.
His face was pale. No matter how he calculated, he could not find a way out of this predicament. He had no magical treasures, nothing to defend himself against. His cultivation base was lower than his opponent's, and his battle prowess was even lower. At this moment, the arrogance he had when he first arrived had completely vanished, and in its place was despair.
In his despair, there seemed to be only one path in front of him!
Self-destruct!
The self-destruction of his Primordial Spirit meant that his true self, who was in Hidden Dragon Sect, was suffering a catastrophe and his cultivation base was greatly reduced, in exchange for the other party's injuries. But … he was not willing to do this!
This was not beneficial to him at all. The old man now hated Sun Shan, the disciple who had summoned him, to the bone!
"Dammit, don't tell me he's really going to self-destruct!!" The old man was in despair. Unless he had no other choice, he would definitely not walk this path. This was something he could not bear.
Even if he managed to injure them gravely, his real self's level of cultivation would also fall, and he might not even be able to return to the land of Immortals. In fact, there was a high possibility that he would die in the chaos that would follow.
He could almost predict that something like this would happen. Especially when his cultivation base fell, it was not as if he had no enemies in the Hidden Dragon Sect. If he was not careful, he would end up in a miserable state.
Unable to advance or retreat!
At that moment, these thoughts were the reflection of the old man's heart. All of this only lasted for an instant. When he saw that Su Ming was closing in on him, he was afraid that when his fourth step landed, Su Ming would catch up and interrupt him.
"What do we do?!?!" The old man's eyes were wide open, and sweat broke out on his forehead. His expression was one of anxiety, and just when he was about to throw caution to the wind, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Justice Hidden Eyes!! That's right, the first thing this person said when he saw me was to ask me about the Hidden Justice Eyes! " The old man was able to cultivate to the Ascendant stage, so he was naturally very smart. As this thought appeared in his mind, he suddenly understood.
Along with this realization, waves of bitterness arose in his heart.
"This person is very cunning. If the Berserkers have someone like this, then they will definitely become a great enemy of us Immortals …"
"The reason why he waited for me to descend was because he wanted to obtain my Hidden Dragon Sect's Art of Justice. I don't know where he heard this art from, but from the looks of it, he seems to have a deep understanding of it. He even knows that this art can be performed by anyone!
That person must have also asked that disciple of mine, and the answer he obtained was probably not satisfactory. That's why I descended here. This was all part of his plan, and Sun Shan didn't notice anything at all.
He had intentionally waited for me to descend before asking that question. In truth, he had already calculated the result. He had determined that I would definitely not be a match for him and would choose to escape. He had also calculated my current struggle and struggle. He had also calculated that at this moment, I would think of the first thing he had said to me.
Now that the situation is clear, he doesn't want me to self-detonate and get injured for nothing. He can let me go, but the price is … Hidden Justice Eyes! "
In his anguish, a resolute look appeared on the old man's face. At the instant Su Ming was about to close in on him, he lifted his right hand and swung it forward.
"Hidden Dragon Ninth Dao, Harvest in Autumn and Hide in Winter!" As the old man's voice reverberated in the air and he swung his right hand, a cloudy look immediately appeared in his right eye.
"Hidden Dragon Eighth Dao, Hide in Secret!" As he spoke swiftly, the seals on his right hand changed, and he tapped his right eye with a finger. Immediately, the cloudy look in his right eye seemed to have gathered together, and clarity appeared at the edges.
"Hidden Dragon Seventh Dao, Hide in Shadows!" As he continued to speak, he took a third step back. His aura weakened once again, and the murkiness in his right eye fused with that of clarity. When he looked at it, it seemed as if his right eye was being concealed, as if it were a shadow that had been hidden from view!
"Hidden Dragon Sixth Dao, Hide Fire in Sleeves!" The old man lifted his left hand and changed the seal he made. There seemed to be faint sparks of fire flashing in his sleeve, and the light of fire instantly appeared in his right eye. As that light shone, his pupil turned into burning flames, and it instantly absorbed the sparks of fire that appeared in his sleeve. When anyone looked over, they saw that there were flames circling before the old man, and they surged into his right eye.
At that moment, the four changes in his right eye — cloudy, clear, clear, and illusory — were continuously alternating with each other, forming a strange sight that shocked people to their core!
"Hidden Dragon Third Dao, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!" The old man let out a low roar and took the fifth step backwards. When he took it, his presence had already become incredibly weak. The Nascent Divinity in his body was also in a state of chaos, as if it was about to turn into wisps of divine sense.
As he spoke, he changed the seals in his left hand, and a large amount of afterimages of seals appeared before him. They looked as if they were filled with fog, and as dragon roars echoed in the air, they connected with each other and turned into a roaring dragon.
Almost at the instant the dragon manifested, blood capillaries appeared in the old man's right eye. As they intersected with each other, they turned into a clear Chinese character!
The instant the "king" character was formed by the blood threads, the roaring dragon that was swimming in front of him charged into his right eye and fused with the king mark.
"Hidden Dragon Second Dao, Hide Deep … Ruo Xu!" The old man let out a loud roar. At the center of the blood capillaries in his right eye was a dragon, and around it was a king. At the edges was an Eight Trigrams, and there was also a blood-red light shining from it, causing his entire right eye to look rather enchanting.
He lifted his foot at that moment. When he took his sixth step, he pierced his right eye socket with his right hand, and without caring about the intense pain, he yanked it out of his body and threw it towards Su Ming, who was walking slowly towards him with an indifferent expression.
"I was reckless in what happened today. I will give you the Hidden Eye of Justice as a gift. We will meet again!" The old man swiftly took his sixth step. He might have said that he had understood Su Ming's thoughts and was doing as he wished, but he was still worried that Su Ming would change his mind and remained on guard. If Su Ming did anything, he would self-destruct at all costs.
When he took his sixth step, Su Ming caught the right eyeball and looked towards the old man. The Nascent Divinity in the old man's body had turned into divine sense, and as if Sun Shan's body was a void, it was sucked in and disappeared without a trace. Clearly, it had left Sun Shan's body and returned to Hidden Dragon Sect, which was an unknown number of tens of thousands of lis away.
Sun Shan, who had lost the old man's Nascent Divinity, fell to the ground. His unconscious body trembled, and blood trickled out of the corners of his mouth. His breathing was weak, and he struggled to open his eyes, but as his eyelids fluttered, he lost all his strength and closed his eyes once again. He breathed his last and died.
He did not die in Su Ming's hands. Instead, his Master had sucked away the last bit of his life force before he left out of hatred.
Su Ming cast a glance at the Hidden Eye of Justice in his hand. Besides the reason why he wanted to obtain this item was because he had seen its effects when Hong Luo possessed him all those years ago. The more important reason was that Hong Luo's inherited memories told him that Hidden Dragon Sect's ancient Art, Hidden Eye of Justice, could break a large number of seals.
However, this Art was a little vicious. Not only could a person practice it on their own, they could also snatch it from others. The method was the same as just now. Once the right eye of the person practicing this Art was snatched away, then that person would lose all the benefits brought by this Art. However, it was not as if there was no way to break it. They could just snatch it from someone else.
Su Ming did not know the specifics. He only knew the gist of it.
At that moment, he lifted his left hand and swung it at Sun Shan's corpse through the air. Immediately, it turned into ashes, and only a storage bag was left behind. Once it landed in Su Ming's hand, he put it away into his bosom. A glint appeared in his eyes, and he looked at the barren mountain beneath him.
This barren mountain had already turned into a wasteland. The battle just now had caused the entire place to collapse. Only a small part of the third barren mountain remained, and that was because it was protected by a seal.
As Su Ming looked at the seal, he was just about to do something when his expression suddenly changed. He lifted his head and cast a glance in the direction of Thousand River Valley in the distance. The ripples of power in this place might have been limited to ten thousand feet, but when Sun Shan's Master left just now, the power of the world he stirred up was no longer limited to ten thousand feet, which was why the powerful warriors from Evil Spirit Sect had immediately noticed it.
With a glint in his eyes, Su Ming took a step forward and appeared right outside the door of the cave abode that was covered by the flowing light. He held the Hidden Execution of Justice in his right hand and pushed forward, and immediately, a strange light spread out from the eyeball. Dragon roars and tiger roars came from within, the Eight Trigrams manifested, and the blood capillaries changed, as if they were making predictions. Almost in an instant, cracking sounds reverberated in the air, and the flowing light outside the cave abode immediately disappeared.
The door to the cave abode opened slowly, and a powerful ray of light spread out from within. The presence of extreme Yang instantly spread out, and the moment Su Ming sensed it, his body started rapidly withering away right before his eyes. Not only did Su Ming not panic, his eyes instead lit up.
He was rather familiar with this presence. It was the same presence he had sensed when he was in the galaxy beyond the vortex with the ancient bronze sword in the World of Nine Yin all those years ago.
When the door to the cave abode opened completely, several long arcs charged through the sky in the distance. Su Ming stared at the cave abode, and there was only one thing floating in midair within it.
It was a stone the size of a fist. It was entirely golden, and the light shining from it was like sunlight. It could make people feel warm, but to Su Ming, that light and presence were like poison that caused a large part of his body to wither away!
"Bright Yang Stone!" Su Ming's skin was filled with wrinkles. He looked as if he had lived through his entire life during the short span of a few breaths. A thick aura of death spread out from his body, but when it touched the light from Bright Yang Stone, it started disappearing like snow melting.
He hesitated for a moment, but it was only for an instant. Without any hesitation, Su Ming charged towards the light that caused him to disappear. At that moment, he looked as if he had turned into a moth that flew into a flame!
At the instant he grabbed the Bright Yang Stone, a large amount of black smoke spread out from his right hand. An intense pain that traveled straight to his soul was almost unbearable to Su Ming, but he did not loosen his grip around the stone. Instead, he tightened his grip around it!
"Su Ming, if you can't even withstand this small stone and want to give up, then why did you even bother saying that you want to rush out of Yin Death Region?!" Su Ming let out a low growl with a pale face. As he questioned himself, he grabbed the stone, and at the instant the several long arcs closed in on him, he took a step forward, stepped into the air, and warped away! (To be continued.
