A focused look appeared on Su Ming's face as he looked at the purple figure walking towards him from the snow plains. That person did not give him a single hint of familiarity, but the moment he lifted his right hand and pointed at him, Su Ming's heart trembled. He could not say why, but at that moment, that originally unfamiliar feeling gave him a sense of déjà vu.
The moment the purple figure appeared, Phantom Dais' Elder, who was about to explode in anger, instantly lost his anger. His expression became calm, and he turned around in midair, his gaze also falling on Su Ming.
Tian Xie Zi's face was stern. His robes were showing signs of changing. They were no longer white, but were turning gray. In fact, that gray was not the end of their transformation either. A hint of purple was gradually seeping out of his robes.
"Sir Tian Xie Zi, I bear no ill will towards your disciple. I just have a few questions that I would like to ask," the person in purple said calmly, his face hidden.
"Phantom Dais Tribe's Phantom Equal … It is rumored that ever since the tribe appeared, there has never been a second Phantom Equal … In fact, it is rumored that when the Great Tribe of Freezing Sky subdued Phantom Dais Tribe, the Phantom Equal did not attack …
"Now, I'd like to see just how strong you are, Phantom Equal!" Tian Xie Zi's gaze was cold. At that moment, there was no longer any hint of madness in him, but a murderous aura!
"Sir Tian Xie Zi, why don't you ask your disciple whether he wants to talk to me? If he doesn't want to, I won't force him, but if he does, then I hope you won't stop him." The person in purple's voice was hoarse, but still calm.
Tian Xie Zi looked at the person in purple, and the seriousness in his eyes grew stronger. This sort of expression rarely appeared on him, and as it grew stronger, a faint hint of fighting spirit appeared within him.
He licked his lips and did not speak. Instead, he lifted his right hand slowly, and as he did so, his robes rapidly turned purple.
Su Ming's second senior brother also had a serious expression on his face as he stood beside Su Ming. Even the dark skinned man, one of the 300 slaves of eldest senior brother, had the same expression on his face.
Su Ming looked at the Phantom Equal in purple and suddenly said, "At the same time you ask me, I can also ask you a question."
"Sure," the person in purple said flatly.
"Master, I'd like to talk to him." Su Ming's voice traveled forth, and Tian Xie Zi's right hand froze in the sky. He turned his head around and looked at Su Ming. After a moment of silence, he lowered his right hand.
"Follow me." The purple-robed Phantom Dais Tribe's Phantom Equal said hoarsely before he turned around and walked towards the edge of the snow plains behind him.
Su Ming did not hesitate and walked forward. The two of them walked one after the other, and soon, they arrived at the edge of the snow plains. When they stood there, they could clearly see the city that belonged to Phantom Dais Tribe at the bottom of the cliff, and the land that was gradually turning green behind the city.
There was a moment of silence. Neither of them spoke.
There were several dozens of feet between the purple-robed man and Su Ming. After a long while, he said slowly, "That's the south …"
Su Ming looked at the indistinct green land in the distance and fell silent.
"What's your name?" The purple-robed person turned around, and the eyes hidden under the robes looked towards Su Ming.
"Su Ming. What's your name? "Su Ming hesitated for a moment, then decided not to hide anything. Once he answered, he asked a question of his own.
"Me … I've already forgotten … Gui Fang is my name." The purple-robed figure seemed to ponder for a moment before he shook his head and answered in a hoarse voice.
"I can sense a fierce and unique presence on your body. You … are not from the Land of South Morning." The purple-robed figure's voice was low, but when his words fell into Su Ming's ears, he felt his heart tremble.
This sentence was not a question, but a form of affirmation that did not require Su Ming's answer.
"What is this?" Su Ming avoided the question and brought out a black stone from his bosom. That stone might look like that, but in truth, when Su Ming held it in his hands for the first time, it was still very soft. It was the stone shell from which the black insects had continuously crawled out.
"This is Phantom Dais Tribe's sacred item. With it, we can communicate with a strange world. There are countless Specters there … You're not from the Land of South Morning, and neither am I …" the purple-robed figure mumbled.
Su Ming cast the person a glance and did not speak.
"Besides that unique presence, there's also something familiar about you. That familiar feeling is as if … we've met before.
"Perhaps you've met the next Phantom Equal of Phantom Dais Tribe before …" The purple-robed figure turned around swiftly and looked into Su Ming's eyes.
"The Phantom Equal of Phantom Dais Tribe isn't always alone. Once the current person dies, the next person will wake up. I've searched through the entire Land of South Morning, but the next Phantom Equal has not appeared!
"I should have died many times, but every single time, I forced myself to survive and continued searching … Tell me, where did you meet that person …
"You know who I'm talking about. From the moment you held this sacred item in your hand and came over to ask about it, I knew that you already have an answer in your heart. If you have any questions, then tell me where he is. What is his name? He is the next Phantom Equal of Phantom Dais Tribe!"
Su Ming's heart trembled. He looked at the purple-robed figure before him, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head.
"He's not in the Land of South Morning."
"It's fine. Tell me where he is and his name, and I will thank you with this!" the purple-robed figure said hoarsely. The purple-robed figure spoke in a hoarse voice. He lifted his withered right hand, within which appeared a tiny purple bug!
The little insect was completely purple, and it was quietly lying on the withered palm of the purple-robed figure. A faint fragrance was emitted from its body, and when one smelled it, they couldn't help but feel hungry.
"This is Violet Fusion … Any ferocious beast that swallows this insect will return to its roots once. If it succeeds, then its combat abilities will increase by leaps and bounds, but if it fails, then it will die.
"Take this. If you run into danger during Sky Mist Shaman Hunt, then with this item, you can make any Shaman Tribe go mad for you … You must refine this item in your heart. That way, with just one thought, this item will die. If you don't want it, then no one can take it away. You can make a deal with it, and you won't get into trouble because of it."
Su Ming's heart pounded against his chest. He originally did not believe in the purple-robed person's words, but the moment the purple insect appeared, he could clearly feel the unknown rod insect in Han Mountain Bell becoming restless, as if it wanted to rush out of Han Mountain Bell. It was as if this item's attraction to it had reached a level Su Ming could not imagine.
Su Ming remained silent, but still shook his head. He could not tell whether the purple-robed person's words were true. After all, this was an important matter, and he would not speak of it easily.
"I'll take my leave first." Su Ming turned around and quelled the crazed restlessness of the insect in Han Mountain Bell before walking towards Tian Xie Zi in the distance.
"I bear no ill will. I just want to know where my tribe's next Phantom Equal is and what his name is. It's impossible for me to walk out of the Land of South Morning to search for him …
"I just want to use my tribe's strange Ghost Art to inform the strange World of Ghosts and Souls about his name. This will be beneficial for his growth. All the Ghosts in the world will search for him and protect him …
"Please help me this once …" The purple-robed person's voice was hoarse, but there was sincerity in it.
"I know I can't make you believe in my words, but I truly bear no ill will … I swear on the legacy of Phantom Dais Tribe that if there is even a hint of falsehood in my words and if I want to harm the person you mentioned, then let the legacy of Phantom Dais Tribe be broken, and let Phantom Dais Tribe disappear from the world!" The purple-robed old man took a few steps forward, and there was a hint of anxiety in his hoarse voice.
Su Ming's footsteps faltered. He could hear the determination in this person's words. In silence, Su Ming hesitated for a moment.
"This is my oath. I, the God of Phantom Dais, will bear witness to it!" The purple-robed person knelt on one knee on the ground, lifted his hands, and lowered his head towards Su Ming.
His kneeling down made the expressions of all those who saw it in the distance change. Phantom Dais' Elder even focused his gaze on the purple-robed person, but he did not get closer.
Tian Xie Zi frowned and looked at the purple-robed person, as if he had understood something.
Su Ming turned his head around and looked at the purple-robed person kneeling on the ground. After a long while, this person's oath and actions did not seem fake, and the fact that he swore on the name of his own tribe was enough to tell that there was something wrong with him.
"Alliance of the Western Region, Lei Chen …" Su Ming said softly. Once he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards Tian Xie Zi. The moment he turned around, the purple-robed person lifted his head, and gratitude appeared in the eyes hidden under his robes. He lifted his right hand and swung it, and the purple insect charged towards Su Ming. Su Ming caught it.
"Thank you. Don't worry, there is not a hint of falsehood in my words!" Once the purple-robed person finished speaking, he bowed deeply towards Su Ming once again, then turned around and charged down the snow plains.
Su Ming left with his second senior brother, Hu Zi, Tian Xie Zi, and the dark skinned man. They left Northern Frontier Tribe and found Bai Su outside. They turned into long arcs and brought Zhuo Ge and their rewards back to the ninth summit.
Once they left, Phantom Dais' Elder's face turned incredibly dark. He turned around and charged down the snow plains. Besides being wary of Tian Xie Zi, there was another reason why he had compromised so many times. It was because of the Phantom Equal's request.
He wanted to ask the Phantom Equal just what was the reason behind this.
Phantom Dais City was located under the snow plains. There was a tall tower within it, and it was completely purple in color. At the highest point of the tower was a purple-robed figure sitting cross-legged there. There was a purple bowl before him, and there was some purple-colored blood in the bowl.
"In the Alliance of the Western Region … in the name of Lei Chen, as the current Phantom Equal of Phantom Dais Tribe, I call upon you … my scion … Awaken … Lei Chen … Lei Chen …"
As he spoke, he lifted his right hand abruptly. The tip of his index finger shattered, revealing the bloody mess underneath. He pressed it against the purple blood in the stone bowl before him.
"Lei Chen, let me see you!" The purple-robed person let out a loud roar. The moment his roar reverberated in the air, the purple-robed person suddenly started trembling violently. His robes instantly tore apart, revealing an ordinary face that was filled with age. His eyes bulged out, and there was disbelief within them. He saw …
