Booming sounds rose swiftly in the karst cave. Tian Lin's body was torn to pieces, and the destructive power that was formed fused with the vast life force he had gained after fusing with the Sifting Sand Tree spread out with a loud bang in all directions.
Tian Lin died!
The karst cave trembled, and a large amount of shattered stones fell off. The ground and mountains could be seen shaking in the area. Half of Su Ming's body was submerged in the purplish black magma. His face was pale as he looked at the scene before him.
Sun Kun died!
Tian Lin died!
As for Ye Shen Tong, since Jing Nan Zi could come here, then his clone must have died as well.
'This Jing Nan Zi has great power. Sun Kun and Tian Lin died one after another. Do I really have to give up on this physical body and flee with my soul? 'As a glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes, the frail voice suddenly reached his ears once again.
"I bear no ill will … This is not the time for us to talk. Ally of the sacred Abyss Builders, please help me stall for time. As long as I can force out the first sealed sword, I will help you!
"As long as I can force out the first sword, then killing this person will be easy, and I can also give you a serendipity. After all, we came from the same homeland …
"Time, help me stall for time … so that you can stall for enough time, I will first give you a wisp of my physical power!" At the instant the frail voice echoed in Su Ming's mind, he immediately sensed two waves of heat seeping through his feet from the purplish black magma and surging into his body.
That heat wave was filled with a vast presence. Once it surged into his body, it fused into his flesh, blood, and bones. It did not affect his level of cultivation, but was rapidly changing the structure of his physical body.
This scene was similar to when Su Ming had absorbed the physical power from the stones several years ago. However, this time, he did not need to take the initiative to absorb it. The thick physical power surged into his body on its own.
As Su Ming's physical body continued becoming stronger, the lingering sounds of booming sounds echoed in the karst cave before him. As a large amount of dust tumbled about, Jing Nan Zi's dark voice spread out in all directions in the karst cave.
"The last member of the Tian Family in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence has died in endless pain. This can be considered as me showing mercy." Jing Nan Zi walked out slowly from the dust, and when he was only a thousand feet away from Su Ming, he looked towards him.
"Now, it's your turn." Jing Nan Zi's red hair fluttered in the wind. Even though there were many parts of his armor that were damaged and there was even blood flowing out from the corner of his mouth, his eyes still shone brilliantly. If one was stared at by his gaze, one would immediately feel a piercing pain as if his gaze had materialized.
As he spoke, Jing Nan Zi seized the air with his right hand. Immediately, his long red spear appeared in a flash. Once he held it, he lifted his foot slowly and walked towards Su Ming at a moderate pace.
"You seem to hate the Tian bloodline very much?" His flesh and blood were becoming stronger, and his absorption speed was also becoming faster, but strangely, no one would be able to see a single hint of it. This must be related to the Duke of Crimson Flame, who had used some unknown method to make it difficult for Jing Nan Zi to see Su Ming's current condition.
"Hate? You're very curious. " A hint of aloofness shone in Jing Nan Zi's eyes. With one move, he charged towards Su Ming with the long spear in hand like a bolt of lightning.
Yet right when he leaped up and was about to close in on Su Ming, Su Ming's eyes sparkled, and he spoke in a cold voice.
"Your older brother sacrificed his life for you in the past because you offended the Tian Family of True Sacred Yin World, right? Is the girl beside the old man called Tian something?" At the instant Su Ming said those words, Jing Nan Zi's body appeared in midair with a flash. Once he stopped in midair, an incredibly thick killing intent appeared in his eyes as he stared at Su Ming coldly.
It might have seemed normal, but Su Ming noticed that Jing Nan Zi's breathing had clearly become rougher than before.
"Tian Lin's family belongs to the Tian Family of True Sacred Yin World, which is also the family you offended in the past. Because of your offense, your older brother died, and you managed to escape death.
"From then on, the Tian Family became the target of your revenge." When some of the members of the Tian Family failed in their rebellion and a branch of their family was sent to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, they became your prey. They were enslaved by you, and you continued killing them cruelly. In the end, you even left Tian Lin alive to be tormented by hatred and pain.
"If my guess is correct, the girl who offended you in the past should have some sort of connection with Tian Lin's line of descent. In fact, Tian Lin's line of descent might be the true direct line of descent in the Tian Family. This so-called rebellion should have failed because someone from the branch of the family succeeded in usurping the throne." Su Ming originally would not have said so much, but with each breath he took, his body would become stronger, and the Duke of Crimson Flame's skeleton behind him would also have a higher chance of breaking the seal.
As Su Ming's physical body continued becoming stronger, the bald crane woke up in his storage bag. With a single move, it flew out of his storage bag and crashed into the purplish black magma. It was first momentarily stunned, then cautiously popped its head out of the magma not too far away. It looked at Su Ming, who was mostly submerged in the magma, then at Jing Nan Zi, who was smiling coldly with a dark expression on his face in midair. The bald crane quickly shrank its head back.
Yet when it shrank its head back, it suddenly saw the Duke of Crimson Flame by its side. With it, the bald crane immediately widened its eyes. In fact, even the Duke of Crimson Flame's empty eyes sparkled rapidly at that instant, as if he was staring at the bald crane.
Jing Nan Zi looked at Su Ming and said flatly, "You spoke so slowly and said all these harsh words because you were waiting for the person named Long to take the World Stone and break the seal, right?"
"Do you think that the seal is so easy to break?! "Even if the seal crumbles right now, so what? Even if your companion, Long Li, takes the World Stone, so what?" Jing Nan Zi's lips curled up into a cold sneer. He took a step forward and closed in on Su Ming. His words were spoken unhurriedly, but they crashed into Su Ming's heart like a thunderclap.
'These seals are just to confuse people's eyes. As long as the true seal isn't broken, that mighty cultivator of the alien race won't be able to bring out even a hint of his power. You want to use this to kill me? ' Derision appeared in Jing Nan Zi's eyes. With a single move, he appeared in midair two hundred feet away from Su Ming and swung the long spear in his hand at him.
Buzz!
The tip of the long spear instantly appeared before Su Ming, and an incredibly fierce, freezing aura instantly froze his entire body. In fact, even the purplish black magma around him looked as if it had turned into freezing mud during that instant.
Su Ming's pupils shrank. He did not stop the long spear from coming towards him. His body sank swiftly into the purplish black magma, and he instantly disappeared, sinking completely into the purplish black magma.
Almost at the same time Su Ming sank in, the long spear touched the purplish black magma.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Three consecutive booms rang out, and the purplish black magma exploded three times. The destructive power from the long spear surged madly into it, causing all the purplish black magma to tumble backwards and splash everywhere.
As the magma splashed everywhere, the Duke of Crimson Flame's skeleton was submerged and could no longer be seen. Even after the bald crane transformed, it was difficult to find it. However, Su Ming had already turned into a long arc and rushed out into the distance as the magma filled the area.
Jing Nan Zi let out a cold harrumph and turned around with the long spear in his hand. Yet at the instant he looked towards Su Ming, the karst cave in the sealed region started trembling viciously. Muffled booms came from the holes in the beehive, and it was as if everything in the depths of the underground was about to collapse.
Cracking sounds immediately came from the walls of the beehive, as if the entire Rune had lost its support, and a large amount of cracks started appearing on it.
When Su Ming saw this, his pupils shrank. There was only one explanation for this, and that was that Long Li had succeeded. He had successfully taken down the World Stone, causing the Rune in this place to lose its balance, and it started crumbling.
However, Long Li would definitely not come back to help. He was most likely fleeing outwards at that moment, intending to leave the seal that was about to collapse and be submerged.
"Very good. You've finally completely broken the seal at the perimeter. Only by doing so will I be able to kill you and stop the mighty cultivator of the alien race from waking up. Only then will I be considered to have done a great service!" A smile appeared on Jing Nan Zi's face. He moved, and a red shadow walked out of his body. Once it turned into his clone, it grinned and charged towards one of the holes in the beehive in the distance. Clearly, it was going to chase after Long Li.
"In truth, I was also stalling for time and waiting for you to succeed. Now … the game is over." As Jing Nan Zi smiled, he took a step towards Su Ming.
With it, a loud bang immediately rang out in Su Ming's heart. His first reaction was not to retreat, but to lift his left hand. Destiny's power was swiftly contained within it, and at the same time he changed the laws, he pushed forward.
With it, he felt as if he had pressed his hand on water. A palm appeared out of nowhere before Su Ming. That palm drew an arc that contained some sort of trajectory and pushed against Su Ming's chest.
However, at the instant it fell, Su Ming activated his power of Destiny, causing the palm to pause for a moment. It was also that instant of pause that allowed Su Ming to activate his Sacred Constellation Robe at full power.
At the same time, Su Ming's arms, feet, legs, and even most of his body withered away. Only the spot on his chest where the palm had struck seemed normal, but in truth, it contained all of Su Ming's physical defenses in one spot!
Boom!
The Sacred Constellation Robe on Su Ming's body fluttered violently. Once it negated part of the power, Su Ming tumbled backwards and coughed up blood nonstop. His body rapidly recovered, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to normal from his withered state. However, his face was stark pale.
'If a cultivator in the middle stage of World Plane Realm attacks at full power, it will be difficult for me to fight against him … 'Su Ming retreated swiftly. His breathing quickened, and his organs felt as if they were about to explode. His injuries were incredibly severe, and if it was not because his physical power had just been strengthened, it would have been difficult for him to withstand the attack.
"It would be a pity to kill you. Become my servant, and I will spare your life." Jing Nan Zi's body appeared from the spot where he had pressed his palm against Su Ming's chest. He pulled his palm back and spoke arrogantly. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
