A red bolt of lightning flashed through the sky with a loud bang. Jing Nan Zi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sharp, freezing glare shone through that slit. There was also a faint hint of surprise in his gaze.
"One of the eyes and ears I left in the world outside is summoning me." Jing Nan Zi slowly lifted his right hand and formed a few seals in front of him, as if he was calculating something. As he continued forming those seals, the thunderous roars in the world that was raining blood grew louder.
The booming sounds practically connected together, causing the red on the ground to be in a state of intense alternating between light and darkness, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
The speed at which Jing Nan Zi formed the seals with his right hand became faster, and wisps of green smoke spread out from his fingers. Those wisps of smoke were illusory and indistinct, but if anyone took a closer look, they would be able to see Tian Lin, Long Li, Sun Kun, and Su Ming's figures within the green wisps of smoke.
As these figures appeared, the sealed region of Crimson Flame Planet was revealed within the green wisps of smoke. At that moment, when the thunderous roars in the sky reached their most intense state, Jing Nan Zi's expression changed drastically.
Disbelief first appeared on his face, then he stood up swiftly. However, as he gradually read through all the memories of Ye Shen Tong's clone before his death, he found that Jing Nan Zi was still standing there with a constantly changing expression on his face.
He seemed to be hesitating about something, but after a long while, a resolute look appeared on his face. There was also a hint of ferociousness and ecstasy that shone briefly in his eyes.
'If I can make this great contribution on my own, then I can end my garrison here ahead of schedule. In fact, I can even obtain a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times the amount of resources. This will definitely be a change in the alien race. If I can suppress it alone, then I can obtain the greatest reward from the union of the four Great True Worlds - the right to enter Heavenly Sky Planet to train! 'As Jing Nan Zi's eyes sparkled, excitement that he could not suppress appeared in them.
'Heavenly Sky Planet is opened once every one hundred thousand years. Only less than thirty people can enter each time. It's practically the holy land for training that the four Great True Worlds have already decided beforehand. The time for it to open is not too far away now. If I can obtain the right to enter this time, then I am seven-tenths certain that when I come out, I will be half a step into Solar Kalpa Realm! ' Jing Nan Zi no longer hesitated. He grabbed the air with his right hand toward the red armor that was drenched in blood.
The armor instantly flew up and turned into pieces that covered his entire body. Then, they connected with each other and formed a red armor. Jing Nan Zi, who was wearing the armor, looked like he was filled with a murderous aura. As his crimson hair danced in the rain of blood, he picked up his helmet and put it on. Then, he turned around and took a step towards the blood-red mountain.
Boom!
The mountain was torn apart, and a ray of red light flew out from the collapsed mountain. It was a long, crimson coffin-like object. Light flashed on it, and there were countless runes on it. It was enough to make people's hearts tremble at first glance.
Jing Nan Zi took a step towards the crimson coffin. When he touched it, his body fused into it. Then, as a large amount of runes shone on the coffin, it turned into a piercing ray of light that charged into the sky with a bang at an indescribable speed.
In the face of the blood rain, the coffin flew out of the cultivation planet in the blink of an eye and charged towards Crimson Flame Planet in the vast galaxy in a long arc.
Days passed by. The people in the seal on Crimson Flame Planet still did not move. They were all immersed in the power of the World Stone. There was a dazed look on Su Ming's face. No one knew what he had seen in the ripples on the World Stone.
The bald crane was drooling as it mumbled under its breath, speaking words that even it itself might not be able to hear clearly.
At that moment, it was already night time in Crimson Flame Planet. Most of the people did not venture out. After all, the ferocious beasts in Crimson Flame Planet had walked out of the sealed region. Everything was different from before. To the cultivators in this place, the caution they had accumulated over the past few years was the barrier that kept them safe.
It was especially so during night. It was not quiet. Occasionally, the roars of ferocious beasts would slice through the night sky and spread in all directions.
The old woman in the house in the mountain in the eastern region of Crimson Flame Planet was sitting cross-legged in the house. She had rarely ventured out over the past few years. She had always been feeling slightly uneasy, but in the end, she could only sigh.
On this night, as the old woman was meditating, her eyes suddenly flew open, and a hint of shock appeared in them.
The entire night sky of Crimson Flame Planet turned red at that instant. All the cultivators on the ground were shocked awake and lifted their heads simultaneously to look at the sky in shock.
In fact, even the ferocious beasts that were roaring abruptly no longer let out a single sound.
The thing that caused the sky of Crimson Flame Planet to turn red at that moment was a piercing ray of red light. That red light was appearing in the sky, a telling sign that it was coming from the world beyond at an extreme speed. At that moment, it was moving through the layer of Aura Layer in Crimson Flame Planet.
That red light was too fast, so fast that no one could see what it was clearly. In the blink of an eye, it looked as if it had burned the sky and charged towards the ground. Once it crashed into the ground, a wave of impact that looked like a violent gust of wind swept outwards from the spot where it crashed into the ground.
Wherever that wave of impact went, the ground would be eroded. Even the volcanoes were instantly reduced to dust. All the living beings in a circular area of several tens of thousands of lis could not even let out a scream of pain. Besides those in the peak of Heaven Cultivation Realm, all the others died in an instant.
However, even those in the peak of Heaven Cultivation Realm coughed up a huge mouthful of blood and were heavily injured.
Once the booming sound faded away, a gigantic red coffin could be seen at the spot where the red light had crashed into the ground at the center of the impact. Nearly three-tenths of it was stabbed diagonally into the ground.
There were countless bumps and bumps on the coffin, and as light flowed out in all directions, a face immediately popped up on the surface of the coffin lid. More accurately speaking, it was a face wearing a helmet. Gradually, as if Jing Nan Zi had pierced through the coffin, his head and body came out, and he walked out of the coffin.
Once he cast a glance at the ground around him, Jing Nan Zi let out a cold harrumph. As murderous aura surged into the sky, he struck the coffin with his right hand. Immediately, the runic symbols on the coffin shone violently once again and turned into a long red spear that Jing Nan Zi held in his hand.
At the instant he held the blood-red spear, a power that belonged to those in the middle stage of World Plane Realm, which he did not bother hiding and was at the peak of his condition, erupted from his body. At the instant it swept through the entire Crimson Flame Planet, he used this method to tell all the people in the place that he had arrived.
At the same time, Jing Nan Zi lifted his left hand, and a jade slip appeared on his palm. When he squeezed that jade slip, green light immediately spread out and covered the area under his feet. It was so quick that in the span of ten breaths, the green light covered all the land, the bodies of all the cultivators, and all the ferocious beasts in Crimson Flame Planet.
It even seeped into the depths of the ground and covered the sealed region. Then, an illusory projection that was several dozens of feet big instantly spread out from the jade slip in Jing Nan Zi's hand. Within it was a complete Crimson Flame Planet.
This scene was practically the same as when the ancient bronze sword had come to Crimson Flame Planet many years ago to investigate its surroundings.
As the green light covered the bodies of all the living beings in Crimson Flame Planet, all the cultivators in the place knew clearly … that the True Guards had descended!
The old woman in the house in the mountain in the eastern region was trembling at that moment. Her face was pale, and panic appeared on her face. The ripples of power spreading out from her made it clear that she was submitting.
Jing Nan Zi cast a glance at the illusory projection, then disappeared without a trace. When he reappeared, he was already in the gigantic crack in the canyon where Su Ming and the others had stayed for a period of time in the past. Jing Nan Zi charged forward through the tunnel.
It was also at that instant that the ripples of power and mighty pressure from Jing Nan Zi's arrival caused the people in the seal to tremble to varying degrees while they were immersed in the mysteries of the World Stones.
Su Ming shuddered violently as he remained seated. A hint of struggle appeared in his lifeless and dazed eyes. A brilliant light shone in them, and he looked as if he had instantly snapped out of his stupor. A rarely seen look of shock appeared on his face.
'What sort of power is this? It's equivalent to the Undying and Imperishable World, and it made me sink into it to the point that I can't extricate myself! ' Su Ming sucked in a deep breath. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and the stones around him had become much looser. At the instant Su Ming stood up, most of the stones around him turned into ashes. The barrier of ten feet also disappeared before Su Ming's eyes at that instant.
It allowed Su Ming to see the dimension ten feet away from him. He also saw Long Li trembling in the diamond-shaped screen of light, as well as the nine flags and the nine green-faced kirins by his side. There was also … a stone shining with a brilliant light floating in the screen of light.
At the instant Su Ming looked towards the stone, a bang rang out in his head, and the dazed state from before appeared once again. If Su Ming had not immediately bit the tip of his tongue, he might have immediately sunk into oblivion. He sucked in a sharp breath and no longer looked at the stone, but he knew clearly that the source of his unconsciousness was this stone.
Judging by the way Long Li had set up the Rune to protect himself, it was clear that he had been prepared for this since a long time ago. Based on that, there was a high possibility that Long Li had intentionally created all of this.
'Just what is this thing? How could it possess such shocking power? ' A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes. He did not look at the stone, but at the ancient scroll placed before Long Li.
Right at that instant, a muffled boom suddenly came from the distance. Along with it was a terrifying presence that caused Su Ming's heart to tremble. It was rapidly spreading out from the distance and covering the entire area.
That presence was incredibly domineering. Su Ming might be unfamiliar with it, but that domineering presence made him remember the divine sense that had spread out from the True Guards when they were patrolling the area in the past.
At that moment, Su Ming's pupils shrank. He saw a layer of green light seeping through the stone walls around him, and it was swiftly spreading out to cover the entire area.
He was not unfamiliar with this scene. This was the scene that had appeared when the True Guards had arrived in the past!
'True Guards have arrived! ' Su Ming immediately remembered the conversation between Tian Lin and Ye Shen Tong. Without any hesitation, he moved, intending to leave so that he would not be covered by the green light. However, when he cast a glance at the ancient scroll before Long Li, his footsteps came to a halt.
I don't want to talk about it anymore. I feel dizzy, and I feel like vomiting. I will continue writing two chapters a day and do my best. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
