Bab 68: Insanity.
"Those...Heathens!"
Eyes as cold as the icy Firmaments of Hell glared far into the distance. A blinding whiteness began to shine around him, pulsating with a thriving pace that struck the man next to him!
"You, keep watch and make sure he doesn't get in the way. However, no matter what, even if he survives this, don't attempt to kill him! No matter what!"
The high elder's eyes seethed in a disastrous fashion as he took a glimpse at the man. Then, disregarding the whole situation, he dissipated in a frosty wind...
"What on earth is happening..."
...
...
...
Two void-like eyes, with a rabid nature, stared at an all-encompassing cloud of dust. However, just as these eyes were about to loosen with relief, a tiny speck began to shine through the dust.
They twitched.
"GHAAA..!!! Stop BEING so persistent and die for me!! I haven't even got to your summoner yet, Ancient Spirit, so just DIE!"
*CRACKLE*
"Martial, again, STRIKE!!"
The clouds in the sky seemed to rumble with even greater power as it grew unbridled. It's churning whirlpool gathered in momentum where it seemed to begin to emit an aura that resented everything living...
*RUMBLE*
*STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE!!!"
*CA---...
...
...
TCHAAAAAAAAA!"
A boom that surpassed anything before it ruptured the sky. A bolt as thick as a log descended, emitting a primal stature that gurgled and cried keen roars of deathly killing intent!
"A single speck, formed from the second might, pierces all before it..."
Yet, just before that bolt had landed, the same rumbling voice echoed once more from the shrouded giant!
*SIZZLE*
Then, in a dumbfounding fashion, a tiny speck of goldish light got pushed out of that billowing smoke and toward the bolt! Its colour was that of strangeness, something gold, but not quite. Something more than gold...
*P-PSSST*
A scene similar to an ant shuttling to destroy a mountain shone, but contrary to what most would expect, that ant did such a thing.
*SLICE*
A cut, clean and fresh, swept between the bolts swirling arcs of lightning and pierced right through it! Nothing hindered the speck as it continued to split the arc as if it were bullet parting butter!
"Everything below the second is nothing. Hence, your martial thunder is nothing and your wrath, nothing. No matter whether it is heavenly, martial or ancient, this tribulation is as such. Nothing."
A calming voice rumbled once more, and as it done so, that tiny speck broke through the bolt! This bolt split off into two separate parts as they swirled and struck the ground around the giant!
*BANG BANG* *CRASHHHHHH*
Terrifying booms that caused a limitless array of blackened arcs to form flashed. The smoke encompassing the land got thrashed away in a tyrannical wind, where a blurred figure stood straight.
His feet were the size of a house, and his body the size of a mountain. However, even though the bolt missed, a terrifying and unending pulsation would chime out of the figure's body, time after time.
*WANGGG*
A flash of a sizzling black would follow this, prompting the giant's impregnable body to blur just a little.
*WANGGG*
That bright light in the giant's eyes that would make any cultivator quiver, quivered...
"So it is the True Martial Law..."
A voice echoed out of the giant, where with a slight turn, he gazed at the near-unconsciousness Su Min.
"And you're the True Martial."
*WANGGG*
His eyes dimmed with that once shining intelligence, but he remained indifferent to it all as a rare emotion tinged his voice.
"Fighting your own bloodline, with ours?"
*WANGGG*
Like a ghost, his body soon turned so soft that he didn't seem real anymore.
"It seems that the fabled Legend is about to be relit..."
*W-WANGGGG*
A blast of excitement sparkled in his eyes, but it didn't last even a moment as an enraged shudder of concentrated lightning struck his very core. It seemed to be alive, where even if it lost a large portion of its power, it would still latch onto the intended target!
*CRACK*
"Oh, even though I'm but a spirit meant to live for a mere moment in time, it sure is exciting!"
And so, his eyes flickered and died with a poof of collapsing fog. The remnants of those massive foot marks remained, but as if a giant had never existed, nothing remained to step on those marks...
However, the speck that still remained uninjured continued to fly up and into those deathly black clouds! It didn't seem to even need any input but its own pride to fight!
*ROARRRRRR*
A troubled roar echoed out of the heavens as a painful tremble shook it. Lapsing spasms intertwined with the swirling vortex known as the tribulation clouds, where soul-shaking cracks began to pierce the blackened sky.
*WHOOOOOOOSHHH*
Blitzing waves of incomprehensible magnitudes thundered the ground with near-solid wind cones. A true vision of total destruction commenced as the entire landscape for miles disintegrated and formed a pit that seemed to tunnel right into hell.
Su Min and the kid's figure, unworthy of even paying attention to in this massive wave of destruction, plunged into the massive pit like two grains of sand.
"HAHAHA!! It's finally dead, those Spirits always clung onto the higher bloodlines!!"
A burst of laughter beyond the realm of madness echoed out of the mile-deep pothole, where no other sound dared to contend with it. Yet, the clouds in the sky seemed to be reaching breaking point...
*SSSSSSSSSSSSSS*
"Ah! How unfortunate, it's going to explode! Who said I need the tribulation clouds anyway?! I'll just destroy more of this god-forsaken realm then take Su Min with me!!"
A horrifying growl followed, where a will that seemed to burn erupted out of it. Su Min, awakening out of his pained daze, gasped as he saw what seemed like a black flame encompass the kid who had landed near him.
The land and everything around him was pitch black like a massive lightning bolt had struck. The kid in front, however, didn't even look like one now; with his mangled bones and non-existent legs, he resembled a carcass...
"You're burning your... Consciousness? No... Soul?"
Uncertainty flashed, but as he looked at the sky that seemed to contain a force beyond his imagination, his eyes narrowed. Then, with a rather weak stride, he stood up from the ground.
"It seems that you're not damaging anything though... Mhm, I see..."
His gaze seemed to have changed... It was shining, and the glint of gold that shone was closer to something disturbing.
"Huh? Hah? You seem to have gained enlightenment? How funny!!"
The kid's eyes cracked as that kindled fire continued to burn, and as it done so, a terrifying force began to shroud him...
Su Min ignored him, where he continued to stare at the sky. He saw a single speck within that massive cloud that enveloped the heavens.
The tribulation clouds roared unendingly with the presence of this speck, pummelling Martial Energy and bolts of black lightning onto it. Yet, the speck remained unchanged to it all and just floated there...
Nevertheless, the giant seemed to have planted something within this tiny golden thing, and it was causing it to begin to combust...
"Everything below the second is nothing..."
*THUMP*
His heart thudded and his chest burned! Then, like a request, a faint image of a golden tree sprouted in his view! However, it was focused on a black vortex...
"Maybe I can use this speck as a method to push my cultivation..."
Su Min's black eye flashed as he allowed the vortex to engulf his view. However, instead of completely replacing the world he stood in, it only half merged. The entire world changed, where it was now shrouded in a limitless vague fog.
He could still see everything that was happening, but he could also feel that mystical sensation erupting from the strange space. It was one of limitless wrongness, roaring in his ears with this uncomfortable feeling!
Yet, he endured such a feeling and attempted to focus on that tiny speck. His vision distorted, and with a shocking transformation, a miniature gold light pierced his eyes!
Endless pain stabbed into Su Min's mind as this light shone, but he still didn't flinch and focused even further!
"W-wow..."
A gasp of pure amazement responded, where a glimpse of something beautiful gleamed in his eyes!
*RUUMMMMBLLLEEE*
"Agh...!!! I guess burning your soul really is as intolerable as they say!!"
The kid wasn't even paying attention to Su Min's actions. He didn't have the capacity to, as, without a single remaining dreg of clearness, insanity consumed him! Yet even through all this, that one hatred remained!
To kill all, especially Su Min...
"Explode the sky! Split the heavens!! HAHAHA *COUGH*!!! Martial phrase this and that, who cares!"
The black flame surrounding his body trembled and churned, causing odd ripples to spread throughout the sky. The tribulation clouds above responded to this, where a faint chasm seemed to want to break through from another realm...
"What do you fight second realm energy with?! Second realm energy of course!! The second, oh so mighty!! GAHHH!!!"
That chasm seethed as a vague outline of it appeared. It was huge, hundreds of times greater than the one the giant summoned!
"Then, why not use as much as I can?!"
The entire realm seemed to suddenly shiver! Echoes of desolate cries thus began to scream out of space, where it seemed that the world itself couldn't support the power that was about to be released!
"STOP!! ARE YOU MAD?!"
A sudden cry of panic broke the tearing noises of space and a white-robed man appeared. His eyes were trembling as he stared at the chasm, and he could hardly put up any resistant towards it.
"Mad? Mad?! Spot on genius!! You see, I'll proudly wait for that Realm Overseer to crush my rotting remains, because who cares if I shouldn't summon second realm energy in this lowly shit hole!!
Fuck all of you, So go fuck my corpse in a broken heavenly world!! Let those higher bastards fix this. HAHAHAHA..!!"
