Su Ming walked quickly into the valley.
He looked up at a certain empty spot in the sky above.
Seeing Su Ming's actions, Lin Yuhan's face showed shock.
Because Su Ming stretched out his right hand, the elemental power of the entire valley began to riot, then collide, forming the Domain of Chaos.
Within this domain, a large amount of distorted elements gathered around Su Ming's outstretched right hand. It directly landed on space itself, grabbed fiercely, and tore open a crack.
"This is a pocket dimension!"
Lin Yuhan exclaimed.
She stared intently at the small scene within the crack. The images flashing inside were incredibly rich, clearly depicting a world.
As a forging genius, Lin Yuhan had naturally been recruited by the Tang Sect and had entered the Dragon Valley.
The branch on the Star Luo Continent belonged to the Tang Sect, but its nature was somewhat different. Because the branch leaders were all members of the Body Sect, and the Tang Sect itself didn't focus its core here—all its arms research was in the Federation, without even sharing technology with the Star Luo branch—this resulted in the Tang Sect here being different from the one in the Federation.
It wasn't just the Star Luo branch; the Tang Sect on the Heaven Dou Continent also subtly displayed an independent stance.
"The fortune is vast, self-contained... This pocket dimension left by the Qilin race is in a much better state than the current Dragon Valley."
Su Ming looked through the crack at the pocket dimension on the other side and found it to be a cohesive whole, full of vitality inside. Apart from relying on the space of the Douluo Continent, it had no other negative buffs.
This pocket dimension could be self-sufficient, and was even slightly nourishing the Douluo Continent in return.
However, when Su Ming sent his spiritual power probing inside, delving deeper to sense it, something happened that made his expression change drastically.
The entire beautiful scene shattered. The self-sufficient scene within the pocket dimension changed, turning into a living hell.
Compared to the Dragon Valley, the pocket dimension on the other side was even more miserable, filled with wandering specters and overflowing with evil energy.
"The Qilin race gathered fortune to suppress the evil here."
Su Ming was speechless. He directly activated the Domain of Chaos to repair the crack.
He grabbed a strangely shaped specter that had rushed out of the crack in his hand.
A mass of white flame flared up, instantly refining it.
After the specter was purified, a surge of power attached itself to Su Ming.
Simultaneously, Su Ming used a Necromancy spell—Time Reversal.
Time Reversal could view the most profound memory deep within a soul.
Subsequently, he saw endless slaughter.
"Is that the Shura God?"
"The Shura God is slaughtering Divine Beasts. This specter—Damn, this specter was transformed from the soul of a Divine Beast."
Su Ming immediately severed the Time Reversal.
He directly sat down cross-legged, immersing his whole being into his Sea of Consciousness.
In the Sea of Consciousness, a mass of bloody light charged in, heading straight for Chunqiu.
Chunqiu transformed into a stream of flowing water, separating and evading the bloody light's attack.
Su Ming's spiritual body condensed into form, watching as the mass of bloody light coalesced into a phantom.
"Qilin. Divine Thought."
No wonder it was the first to rush out and could make Su Ming fall under an illusion, making him believe the pocket dimension was peaceful and full of vitality.
So it was a specter possessing Divine Thought.
Although the opposing Qilin remnant thought had endured who knows how many years of erosion, having transformed into a specter, it had not been worn down over time but had instead become extremely condensed through accumulation.
Su Ming's spiritual power hadn't yet reached the Godly Spirit Realm; he wasn't confident he could handle this Qilin remnant thought.
However, he had no intention of letting such an unknown entity remain in his Sea of Consciousness.
He entered the River of Time and began to draw its waters.
The water of time instantly filled his Sea of Consciousness. Under its scouring, the Qilin remnant thought began to rapidly wither.
After repeatedly scouring his Sea of Consciousness and confirming the Qilin remnant thought had completely dissipated, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Shura God slaughtered Divine Beasts. A large number of Divine Beasts at the first-class god level were killed and buried in that pocket dimension."
Su Ming now began to ponder the fragments he had seen from the Qilin remnant thought.
"Most importantly, I even saw a shocking sword aura that split a seven-colored giant dragon in two."
Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Su Ming also believed this was how the Dragon God died.
"It seems other versions of the Dragon God's death are just rumors. This, after all, is the most profound image from the remnant thoughts of a deceased Divine Beast Qilin."
The Dragon God was killed by the Shura God.
"No, that's not right."
Su Ming frowned again.
Seven-colored giant dragon...
"The Dragon God, if I recall, controlled nine-colored power, right?"
Tang Wulin's son in the original storyline, the little Dragon God, inherited a nine-colored bloodline.
It couldn't possibly surpass the master from the start, could it?
"Was the Dragon God in this Qilin remnant thought fake?"
"Wrong!"
Su Ming was jolted awake.
He quickly entered the Long River perspective.
The Trinity simultaneously looked towards the gaps in both the illusory history and the true future worlds.
"The illusory history from Douluo 1 has a nine-colored hole. The hole that appeared earlier in Douluo 3 was seven-colored."
Su Ming felt he had grasped a key point.
"Su Ming, are you alright?"
Lin Yuhan's voice interrupted Su Ming's contemplation.
She had cautiously activated her Spirit Flying Device to fly opposite Su Ming, a look of wariness on her face.
What had just happened was too frightening.
A specter rushed out from the crack and began to erode Su Ming. Then Su Ming purified it with a ball of white flame, but after the purification, a pure bloody light appeared within the white flame and shot directly into Su Ming's eyes.
"I'm fine."
Su Ming came back to his senses and looked towards where the crack had been.
"I need to catch another specter. Stay farther away."
Lin Yuhan shuddered and quickly retreated.
Su Ming repeated the process, opening the crack again. This time, he proactively reached out to grab a specter.
"Huh? So weak?"
He purified the specter, even scouring it with the water of time, but found no remnant thoughts.
"It seems specters that can withstand the Purifying Flame and leave behind a remnant thought are also very rare."
Last time, when he purified the specter, Su Ming had been caught off guard and didn't notice the changes in himself. This time, he discovered it.
"My faith has been stirred."
It wasn't his forging faith, nor his faith related to Spirit Cores or Spirit Souls, but his Rakshasa faith.
"Let's catch another one and see."
This time, Su Ming didn't rush to completely purify the specter. He used Time Reversal again to view the fragments deep within the specter's memory.
It was the same fragment.
This time, Su Ming had his own focus.
"Hisss~"
Pulling out of the specter's memory, Su Ming sucked in a sharp breath.
"I knew it. How could the Shura God be so fierce?"
Just now, in the memory of the specter formed from the divine-level remnant thought, the Shura God slaying the Dragon God with one sword made Su Ming think that was the Shura God going all out, and he subconsciously accepted it.
But now he realized.
The Shura God slaying the Dragon God was inherently unreasonable.
The Shura God that Tang San inherited couldn't even defeat the God of Destruction.
"So, the previous Shura God could draw on the power of Rakshasa?"
The resentful energy formed by the souls slain by his sword aura would all be drawn in and absorbed by him, strengthening his own killing intent.
It was less killing intent and more baleful aura.
Shura and Rakshasa were originally one!
