1272: Chapter 374 You’re Here_2 1272: Chapter 374 You’re Here_2 After an indeterminate period, Su He struggled to free himself from the crashed state, daring not to attempt hastily again.
With a throbbing headache, he sat quietly for a long while before he cautiously communicated with a Tao Seal, which was left in a small world—such that even if he operated it incorrectly, his head wouldn’t be blown apart by the overwhelming flow of information.
Before the information from the small world could arrive, Su He immediately directed the Tao Seal’s perception toward the adjacent Black Symbol.
As the various information of the small world actively receded, Su He breathed a sigh of relief; the information from that dark imprint did indeed come through.
But it was extremely chaotic; he couldn’t perceive anything.
It was like a swarm of snowflakes—information that Su He couldn’t understand.
But the method wasn’t wrong!
Su He tried again, leading another seal to sense the neighbor.
One after another, after more than forty seals, that information suddenly became clear.
It was a scene.
In a starry sky, a listless Old Dragon Turtle slapped over with a paw, smashing him to pieces.
As the scene disappeared, Su He saw one of the Black Symbols shatter and dissipate.
Su He paused for a moment.
Was that from the perspective of the Yuan Finger?
Or was it from the perspective of the young woman inside the finger?
The Symbol received information, which was happening to that finger right then!
Su He immediately accelerated the pace, perceiving other Symbols.
Finally, after perceiving more than two hundred, almost reaching his limit, he saw the scene again.
It was still that starry sky, still Thai Zu.
But this time Thai Zu didn’t directly smash the finger.
Instead, he tilted his head and spoke to it.
“You are not dead!” The woman spoke, devoid of any emotion.
Thai Zu blinked, “Why would I, the Old Turtle, do such a thing?”
The longevity of a Dragon Turtle!
“You are not Turtle, you are Tai Gu.”
Thai Zu rolled his eyes at her, his expression seemed to say, Are you blind?
Can’t you see such a huge Turtle Shell?
Thai Zu couldn’t be bothered to talk to her, stepping forward with his front paw, a Sword Light slashed through, and the finger crumbled.
It must be the Chaotic Edge!
But Thai Zu’s Chaotic Edge seemed controllable.
Then, Su He guarded these two hundred plus Tao Seals, waiting for the scenes to appear again and again.
With every Black Symbol dissipating, there was a Tao Seal created by Su He, claiming the peak.
He guarded them for who knows how long, only aware that the popping sounds from his body ceased, and even the unbearable itching receded.
During this time, he witnessed various spectacular methods of the finger’s disintegration, even Thai Zu attempting to refine it into a Flying Sword.
Although it failed, it did manage Sword Flight for a moment.
An Old Dragon Turtle riding on a finger flying, well… that scene was quite harmonious!
Perhaps it’s the composure and demeanor perfected over countless years, even Sword Flight carried by a finger appeared cloud-light and breeze-soft under Thai Zu’s control, who looked every bit the Sovereign being.
Flying on a finger did not diminish his majesty.
On the contrary, it gave the impression that a Greater Power should naturally be unconstrained.
Thai Zu flew back and forth twice with the finger before it shattered into pieces.
Su He suspected it wasn’t that Thai Zu’s Artifact Refining method was problematic, but rather the woman within the finger couldn’t stand such humiliation and self-destructed.
In the Origin Space, Su He laughed loudly like a pig snorting, raising his head to see a seal trembling and transforming into that woman’s figure.
She glanced at Su He, then looked toward other places in the Origin Space.
After surveying her surroundings and looking back at Su He, she spoke expressionlessly, “I am not physical; your defenses are pointless.”
Su He, as if facing a formidable enemy, had his hair standing on end.
The drawn Horizontal Sword still held in front of him as he slowly backed away, “Who are you?”
The woman shook her head: “I do not know, perhaps Yuan, or Li.
But to you, there is no difference.
One day, when I return, I shall slay you!”
Su He had touched her bottom line.
If it were the Old Turtle from the outside leaving a mark here, she might let it go.
But Su He, a mere Opening Heaven Four-fold, only able to contend with an Immortal Sovereign with the help of external aids, had no right to stand in this place!
Su He laughed, “How many days is ‘one day’?”
He didn’t know how long he had been here, but Su He was certain that he had grown much stronger than when he had entered.
His Inner World was advancing rapidly, and it wouldn’t be long before he could reach Opening Heaven Five-fold—that was Su He’s fastest advancement ever.
Disregarding Opening Heaven One-level, that was purely cheating.
If “one day” in the woman’s mouth meant a hundred or a thousand years—Su He’s sword probably couldn’t wait that long!
The woman lowered her head to look at him.
“I must return within ninety thousand years!”
Su He fell silent.
He had a mysterious confidence in his cultivation speed; even if that period was reduced tenfold or more, he could crush this finger just like Thai Zu.
What’s coming is another story if it’s the Yuan Original Body.
“I’ll wait for you!” Su He was brimming with confidence and didn’t mind setting a date for their battle challenge.
The woman glanced at him and then at the Origin Space, her voice devoid of any emotion, “This place lacks the world core, leaving more marks is useless, your actions were doomed to fail from the beginning.”
Although her words were emotionless, Su He always felt like she was gloating over the disaster.
As soon as she finished speaking, all the black Symbols in the space started to float up, gathering together into a mass and landing on the woman, taking her as it broke through the space, disappearing from view.
Su He’s expression changed slightly: “Thai Zu!”
This person has gathered all the power!
Clearly, the Symbols she left here were different from the Tao Seals Su He had just left.
Su He’s Tao Seals did not have the function of resurrection or dying in one’s stead!
Who knows how many tens of thousands of years of accumulation and domination she took out in one go, Thai Zu…
Should be quite happy to fight, right?
Su He thought of Thai Zu’s status—bored to extremity, already so bored as to fly at a swipe of his finger.
Suddenly, he felt at ease.
The limit of Thai Zu was far from being reached.
Even with the accumulation of who knows how many tens of thousands of years from the person, it couldn’t stir up any waves.
Just how strong is that old Dragon Turtle of his family, anyway?
Thai Zu’s strength gave Su He the illusion that even if Yuan himself came, Thai Zu could protect him completely.
Su He took a deep breath and looked towards the emptied Origin Space, a comfortable feeling rising within him.
Be it the Yuan Finger or Li, neither is someone he can withstand.
With Thai Zu taking the lead, all he has to do is what he needs to do.
As for what the woman said about the core not being here, and leaving marks is useless—believe that, ghosts!
If it were useless, would she linger here for who knows how many epochs, refusing to leave?
If we say there’s no core here—Mystery Yellow Cave Sky?
The Mystery Yellow Cave Sky and Guiwang Mountain are not here!
These two places are very special to begin with, their entrances open in the Mystery Huang World, but no one knows exactly where they are.
Without thinking, Su He looked towards Sword Mountain.
In reality, the Sword Mountain is in the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky!
The only people able to enter this place are the Taoist Ancestor, Yuan, and him.
Whoever placed the Sword Mountain here needs no explanation.
So, will he return to ancient times and bring the Sword Mountain Origin here?
Is it he who took the core of the Origin Space?
Surprised, Su He’s gaze rested on the Sword Mountain, seeing it now as completely different from what he had seen before.
The whole Sword Mountain was immersed in a “Sword River.”
That Sword River seemed like a streak of Sword Light, or like a long river made up of countless Immortal Swords.
It was unpredictable, but no matter how it changed, the luck and presence of the way of the sword were as substantial as mountains!
Pure and intricate Sword Intent, as if all the swords in the world were here!
Sword Mountain was like a deserted island sunk within it.
Su He walked towards Sword Mountain, placing his hand on it, sensing the Sword Mountain, his spirit already landing on it.
The Sword Mountain inside the Origin Space was only as big as a walnut, not a matter of shrinking or enlarging at will, but that’s how he walked in.
Just like he had entered the All Heavens and Myriad Realms earlier, leaving behind his marks.
The moment his mind willed it, he was already inside.
It was inexplicable, just a feeling, something that Su He couldn’t understand with his knowledge, but it was possible to do.
Just like watching the Taoist Ancestor slap the great sun; there is no logic, if you want to do something, you do it, with wishes coming true on a whim.
This is a basic ability of the Origin.
On Sword Mountain, a piece of blue light was showy; the Channel Spirit Sword Grass all over the mountain gently swayed, seemingly having endless things to say.
Atop the Sword Mountain, a lone thatched cottage stood quietly.
The building techniques of Su Huanian were fully demonstrated on this grass house.
The Sword Mountain felt entirely real, even the mountain breeze blowing on one’s face felt no different from reality.
Had Su He not known earlier and also sensed the call of the Tao Seals outside Sword Mountain, he might have thought he had reached the real Sword Mountain!
This mountain was no different from what Su Huanian had demonstrated to him!
Su He ascended the mountain and pushed the door open.
The door creaked, as if laughing, extremely eerie.
Upon entering, he saw the wall of the real Sword Mountain Grass House hanging with Hexagrams, and with half a piece of cowhide hanging there as if it had been forcibly torn off a big drum.
On it were written three ugliest big characters: “You’ve come!”
