This strike was the Blood Sacrifice for the Return of the Soul. The wind and clouds stirred, and the blood sword and the two-headed body moved like a shooting star, causing the ground to rumble. During that instant, it was as if the sky and the earth had crashed into each other. The ripples stirred up turned into two arcs of impact, causing this scene to look like an incredibly beautiful sight in the land of Berserkers from the distance. It was enough to make anyone's expression change and look sideways.
During the impact, second senior brother let out a weak but hearty laugh while on Su Ming's back. As he laughed, green grass instantly spread out from the shattered ground. As waves of fragrance spread out, a feminine yet tenacious presence spread out from second senior brother's body and surrounded Su Ming.
Su Ming was like a sharp sword that had been drawn out of its sheath. With second senior brother on his back, he crashed into the body that was charging towards him through the Blood Sacrifice for the Return of the Soul in the sky.
This was a clash between the sky and the earth. This was a clash between two forces that could be said to be at the pinnacle of power in the land of Berserkers. As loud booming sounds reverberated in the air and spread out, an endless amount of dimensional cracks appeared in the sky. As the ground shattered, it turned into ashes.
A violent gust of wind with a powerful impact was sweeping madly through the area with Su Ming as its center. It was like a raging wave that had no end in sight.
Su Ming coughed up a mouthful of blood and was forced back a hundred something feet. However, a large amount of green immediately filled his body at that instant. That was the manifestation of second senior brother's power.
As for the two-headed body, one of its heads crumbled at that instant. Its body tumbled backwards with a loud bang, and the blood sword in its hand also became slightly duller.
Su Ming lifted his head swiftly. Before he even stopped moving, he rushed out once again. The killing sword in his hand shone, and he charged towards the one-headed Great Leaf Immortal Sect Master. As the one-headed body roared, the two of them clashed against each other once again.
He did not use any divine abilities or Arts. Su Ming used a killing sword and executed the four sword styles. He drew long arcs in the air, and after a moment, an even louder bang rang out, and a head flew into the air. It was pierced through by Su Ming's sword, and the head exploded.
The body formed by the Rune from Great Leaf Immortal Sect that had lost all its heads was swiftly retreating as it shuddered. At the spot where the head had been, there were two tumors squirming rapidly, as if they were about to grow another head.
"Those who provoke the ninth summit will be killed!" Blood trickled out of the corners of Su Ming's mouth, but the murderous aura on his face was still threatening. He took a step forward and caught up to the retreating body. The killing sword in his hand sliced down, and a gigantic left arm flew up before it crumbled.
Second senior brother's laughter reverberated in the air. His laughter contained the venting of all the repressed feelings he had felt over the years. His voice also rang out amidst his laughter.
"Youngest junior brother, you're right. Those who provoke even a single plant in the ninth summit will be killed!"
As second senior brother spoke, Su Ming took a step forward once again and closed in on the retreating body formed by the Rune. He swung the blood-red sword in his hand, and the body's right leg was swiftly separated from its body.
"Those who provoke the ninth summit's disciples will have their entire family killed!" Su Ming's freezing voice spread out. When he took a step forward, he leaped forward and lifted the killing sword in his hand. As killing intent erupted from his eyes, he cut down violently towards the body formed by the Rune from Great Leaf Immortal Sect.
As second senior brother laughed, a large amount of green light flowed through Su Ming's body and gathered on the killing sword in his hand. That slash no longer contained Su Ming's power alone, but his weakened second senior brother had also been added to it.
At the instant the sword slashed down, the body formed by the Rune, which had lost its two heads, left arm, and right leg, swiftly lifted its right hand and placed the blood-red sword horizontally before itself to fight against the slashes from Su Ming and his second senior brother's killing swords.
A loud bang rang in the air. As Su Ming let out a cold harrumph and second senior brother laughed, the killing sword crashed into the blood sword, and it immediately shattered into pieces. The killing sword pierced through the blood sword and cut into the body of the Rune, cutting through its flesh. When it pierced through, it cut the body of the Rune in half.
A shrill scream that could only be heard by souls rang out from the body of the Rune. The two halves of the Rune exploded, and the countless vengeful souls inside tumbled out in all directions as they let out shrill screams of pain.
If anyone looked towards the sky from the ground, they would be able to see this scene spreading out like fog, and that fog was filled with the souls of Great Leaf Immortal Sect.
A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. Just as he was about to kill the Rune, second senior brother on his back suddenly spoke.
"Youngest junior brother, don't kill …"
As he spoke, second senior brother leaped up and walked out from Su Ming's back. With a single move in midair, he turned into a gigantic Phantom. It was a gigantic creature that had two horns on its head and was one hundred feet tall. Its entire body was dark green in color.
As his Phantom appeared, second senior brother opened his mouth and sucked in a sharp breath in the direction of the Great Leaf Immortal Sect souls tumbling backwards. As he did so, those souls let out shrill screams and terror appeared on their faces, but they could not stop themselves from charging towards second senior brother. In the blink of an eye, they were all swallowed by second senior brother.
When all the souls of Great Leaf Immortal Sect in the sky were devoured by second senior brother, his body grew exponentially from its original size of one hundred feet. A bizarre air spread out from that nearly two hundred feet tall ghost in midair. He slowly turned his head around and looked towards Su Ming.
Even though he had a ferocious appearance and a ghastly black aura was spreading out from all over his body, making him look like a malicious spirit, when he looked towards Su Ming, a smile appeared on his face.
It was second senior brother's smile. As he smiled, he lifted his head and let the sun shine on the side of his face, making him look incredibly comfortable.
"This place has suppressed me for many years … and even used my body as a tool to maintain the sect's cultivation. It continuously extracted my power … It was a very painful experience. This … is not good." As he spoke, second senior brother lifted his right hand and looked at it. With a gentle smile on his face, he slowly brought it down on the ground.
During that instant, even if the entire land had crumbled into powder and there was a gigantic pit on the ground … a large amount of green swiftly filled the area. It was an endless amount of grass, flowers, and trees growing madly.
In the blink of an eye, the entire land that was once Great Leaf Immortal Sect turned into a forest filled with flowers, grass, and lush trees.
A circular area of nearly ten thousand lis was filled with this sort of forest.
Waves of fresh air spread out. Second senior brother sucked in a deep breath, and his body slowly shrank until he eventually turned back into the gentle man who looked like a flower. He was dressed in white and stood before Su Ming with a faint smile on his face.
Su Ming looked at his second senior brother, at the smile that remained in his memories. To him, it did not matter whether his second senior brother was a human or a ghost … he was still his second senior brother.
"Second senior brother." A smile appeared on Su Ming's face. It was a smile that had not appeared on his face for a long time. It came from the bottom of his heart, and he held nothing back.
"Youngest junior brother, it's been hard on you during this period of time. I didn't manage to find Master here, but I did find some clues. For some unknown reason and with some unknown method, Master should have … left the land of Berserkers," second senior brother said softly. His face was still slightly pale. Clearly, the injuries Great Leaf Immortal Sect had inflicted on him over the years could not be healed quickly.
"Right now, we're the only ones left. I asked Hu Zi to stay in the ninth summit. Have you gone back?"
Su Ming nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly frowned and lifted his head to look at the sky. His eyes gradually narrowed. A glint appeared in second senior brother's eyes, and he lifted his head as well.
At that moment, the sky might have seemed to be devoid of clouds, but in truth, there was still a layer of clouds hidden in the sky. The beautiful girl who was munching on melon seeds widened her eyes and watched the entire process of Su Ming fighting against the two-headed Soul of Return. After some time, she patted her slightly puffed up chest and let out a deep sigh.
"What a huge loss …" The girl lifted her hand and scratched the head of the mutt beside her.
The mutt was in pain, but it did not dare say anything. It had heard of the girl's infamy when it was in the Emperor of Abyss' World. She was an unreasonable existence that could cause headaches to many of the living beings in the Emperor of Abyss' World.
It had been ravaged on the way here, and even though this matter clearly had nothing to do with it, it still could not escape from her evil clutches … In pain, the mutt glared at the bald crane and Qian Chen, then growled, scaring the bald crane so much that it quickly put on a fawning expression. Qian Chen also shuddered.
Yet almost at the moment the bald crane put on that fawning expression, the mutt bit the bald crane's body. When it saw the bald crane's expression change and the look of pain on its face, the mutt felt slightly more balanced.
Qian Chen's shivers grew stronger, and terror appeared in his eyes. He saw the beautiful girl bullying the mutt, and then the mutt bullying the bald crane, and he …
As it shuddered, the bald crane lifted its head and glared at Qian Chen fiercely. Suddenly, it lifted its hand and slapped Qian Chen's head. Due to the pain from the mutt's bite, the bald crane slapped Qian Chen a few times in succession. Only when pain also appeared on Qian Chen's face did the bald crane regain its composure.
Qian Chen put on a long face. Once he looked around, he simply could not find anyone for him to vent his anger on or bully, which was why he lowered his head and nearly cried.
Just as the people on the cloud were bullying each other, Su Ming's cold voice traveled forth slowly from below.
"Sir, you've been following me all this time. How much longer are you going to continue hiding?"
Su Ming's voice traveled forth, and when it landed in Qian Chen's ears, he became so excited that he felt as if he had just heard the voice of his family. As for the bald crane, a thought appeared in its head.
The mutt rolled its eyes. Just as it was about to look over, the girl by its side stood up and placed her hands behind her back. She looked incredibly adorable, but the surprise on her face showed that she had not expected that Su Ming would be able to notice her existence.
Hence, she let out a few light coughs, and with that beautiful, adorable, and even slightly naive look of a bunny, she walked out of the cloud that was hidden in the sky.
