The successor disciples of Ninth Summit had already been chosen by Hu Zi. Those who were left behind were just superfluous additions to what was important, and since the ones important had left, the superfluous additions would naturally choose to bloom elsewhere.

They entered the final one hundred years before the disaster, and the powerful warriors of previous aeons started waking up. The first to wake up was the person who had fought against Su Ming in the capital planet of the Emperor of Abyss' True World. Immediately after, an astonis.h.i.+ng presence erupted from several places in Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos.

They spread out from many places in the Emperor of Abyss' True World, True Sacred Yin World, the Fourth True World, and Divine Essence Star Ocean, but there were even more of them coming out from the Expanse Cosmos belonging to Harmonious Morus Alba's fourth wing. Gradually, the powerful warriors began walking the galaxies, and a b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre as well as an oppression of an aeon began.

It was in truth, also a disaster, but it would only come for a short period of time before all lives were destroyed by the disaster.

With Di Tian as their leader, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors hidden in Yin Death Vortex opened their eyes.

"It's time, the period of one hundred years has finally arrived…"

Low murmurs shot up from the worlds in Yin Death Vortex. Excited and fragmented laughter as well as howls echoed everywhere.

Before Arid Triad's disaster, blood was shed…

Su Ming sighed softly and s.h.i.+fted his gaze away from Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos. He did not care about anything in the world around him, be it Di Tian or Su Xuan Yi. At that moment, he did not want to care about them. Even if those powerful warriors from the previous aeons wrought chaos on the entire universe, it was merely part of the laws of the universe. It was something that should happen before Harmonious Morus Alba's four wings overlapped with one another.

However… Ninth Summit remained as forbidden grounds. If anyone dared to take even half a step into this area, then even the powerful warriors from the previous aeons who were known to be indestructible would know just how brilliant was the disaster of life.

Su Ming had killed many people, and even the powerful warriors of the previous aeons were nothing to him…

But he still remembered that one hundred thousand cultivators were still trapped in the world that once belonged to Ecang in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence.

He had promised them that he would one day bring them out, and Su Ming would fulfill that promise.

"Do you want to go back to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence again?" Su Ming looked to the side, where the bald crane was still counting crystals.

The bald crane lifted its head and thought about Su Ming's words carefully before it spoke very seriously. "I've already looted all the crystals there."

Su Ming smiled.

"Alright, then stay here."

With a shake of his head, Su Ming closed his eyes. The next instant, a figure appeared in a galaxy in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence with barely any spiritual aura. That figure belonged to Su Ming.

He was familiar with everything in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence. He had stayed there for many years in the past.

At that moment, everything in that galaxy seemed to be filled with his marks, be it when he was running away or while traveling as a weakling. It was clear that at that time, his path had been arranged by Su Xuan Yi so that he could provide nourishment for the Seed of Life Extermination and do everything that Su Xuan Yi had laid out in secret.

However, when Su Ming turned his head back right then, the resentment and hatred he felt in the past had already faded away. His expression was one of calm. He walked through the galaxy and approached the spot where Ecang had once been.

Su Ming's footsteps came to a halt, as if he had sensed something. There was a cultivation planet not too far away, and on it was a young man. He was sitting at the mountain top and exercising his breathing while meditating.

As he breathed, the ferocious shadow of a huge tree appeared behind him. It was… Ecang.

One of the souls who had escaped from Su Ming's hands in the past had manifested its own version of Ecang. Su Ming stared at him, but he was completely unaware of Su Ming's stare. He continued meditating while occasionally opening his eyes to look at the area cautiously. The aloof and wild look that constantly shone in his eyes made him seem incredibly sullen.

This matched with Ecang's personality. Clearly, during the years since its escape, it had learned quite a bit of a cultivators' way to be cautious and cunning while recovering, which was why it could last for so long in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence.

Perhaps it had always been on guard against Su Ming's arrival. After all, to it, Su Ming's existence was a shadow in its life that even it had to be afraid of. It was afraid of Su Ming, but also longed to devour him so that it would be complete.

If this was the past, then when Su Ming saw it, he would definitely not let it go, but right then, he only cast it a glance before moving his gaze away. Their different states of being and their different worlds caused the animosity between them to turn into a squabble between children.

He did not bother about the figure who had manifested Ecang. Su Ming instead stepped into the world that had once belonged to one hundred thousand Ecangs.

All the stone monuments in the world shuddered with a bang, and all the people who were sitting and meditating lifted their heads. Shock appeared on their faces, and even the cultivators who were immersed in the worlds formed by their memories were forced out. They lifted their heads in shock, and during that moment, the one hundred thousand people… saw Su Ming walking in the sky above them.

Some of them still remembered Su Ming, and some of them had already forgotten him. There were also some who had never experienced the shocking things that occurred during his time, and at that moment, there was confusion on their faces.

"This place has existed for far too long. I promised all of you in the past that there would come a day when the seal would break. I have come today to break it. I will release the binds on all of you and return your souls to you. From now on… you… are free!"

Su Ming swept his gaze past the people. It lingered a little longer on those he was familiar with until it landed on the middle-aged man who had once helped him.

At first glance, he looked to be a middle-aged man, but when Su Ming took a closer look, he saw that the man had already become old. The pa.s.sing of his wife seemed to have become a constant pain in his heart. He could have left before, but had been reluctant to do so. Instead, he immersed himself in his memories so that he could accompany his wife.

After Su Ming spoke, loud bangs rang out. The stone monuments shattered, and the borders of the s.p.a.ce in the area splintered, layer by layer. In just the span of a few breaths, only one stone monument remained standing. It was before the middle-aged man.

"Only you have the right to shatter this stone monument… I will not interfere with your decision."

Su Ming cast a profound look at the middle-aged man. When he turned away from him, he swept his gaze over the other people. He did not see happiness, only a dazed look. It was as if these people could not get used to the sudden change.

But in the end, they would have to get used to it. Su Ming cast a glance at the world that once held one hundred thousand stone monuments. He remembered Sui Chen Zi and shook his head. When he turned around, he had already stepped into s.p.a.ce.

He arrived in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence. Besides releasing the seal in the world of the one hundred thousand stone monuments, he also wanted to go to Husband Gazing Mountain to take a look at the figure at the top of the mountain. Then, he wanted to go to the Sand Earthlings to fulfill the wish of the Sand Earthling's Antecedental Spirit. He also wanted… to go to Black Ink Planet and send Tian Xie Zi's disciple in name to the other side of the river.

If it was possible, Su Ming also wanted to go to the fifth ocean to check whether the entrance to the fifth True World truly existed. He wanted to go to there and see… the place where Su Zhan died and where Su Xuan Yi had gathered his soul together.

"One hundred years is enough," Su Ming mumbled softly and left into the distance.

At that moment, a b.l.o.o.d.y storm swept through many tribes in Divine Essence Star Ocean. It was due to a thin old man. A skeleton stuck to his back, and there was a numb look on his face.

Wherever he went, he brought death with him.
