Chapter 1624 1617: That Su Mei (4)

The abrupt crumbling of the Seed Tribulation Gate had no prior indication and, at first glance, had no immediate explanation. The hazy figure hadn't made a move, still frozen by the Fixed Soul Spell's effects nor had it said anything, and there wasn't a sudden eruption of unseen force that caused its collapse. It simply turned into mystic dust without warning, fluttering through the void as if carried by a gentle, unforgiving gust. And just like that, Wei Wuyin and Su Mei were both visibly stunned.

The former could sense that the Neo-Dawn Mystic-Genesis Pill's effects had ceased to exist altogether. With his Minor Law of Time and True Void Dragon Bloodline, despite being within the prohibition's strongest region, he could determine that there was no temporal regression that was applied. The pill itself seemed to have been erased from existence.

The latter sensed something entirely different; Su Mei felt a subtle ripple surge through her body like a wave of antibodies, and her Mystic Rune Seeds forged by the pill's effects vanished. It was as if her body was instinctively acting against a foreign material without her will, a feeling that mortals were extremely familiar with-the lack of control of their bodily functions-but not cultivators who strove upon this difficult path of cultivation.

Su Mei instinctively turned her head and body to Wei Wuyin. The sight of his calm visage shattering as panic began to swell within those normally gorgeous and imposing silver eyes was like thunder to her heart. She knew that any further attempts to challenge the tribulation would be met with abject failure. Since the beginning, she often possessed a stoic expression, and her trust in Wei Wuyin was undeniably the highest out of anyone in existence, but she was helpless and that visage of hers collapsed as well...she finally...revealed fear!

Wei Wuyin's gaze moved from the former location of the Seed Tribulation Gate to Su Mei. Their eyes met.

It was as if time itself froze. And only they, a young mortal man and a young mortal woman, two souls that had met by chance on a fateful day, only due to their lives and personalities did they find an opportunity to meet, and they've each changed massively since then yet within each other's gaze, knew that the person they first met would never fade.

And they would never abandon the other.

"..."

Suddenly-

The hazy figure slowly regained its motion as if adjusting to the situation with astounding speed. Unlike before, its entire arm moved. When it did, as if similar by extension, the unseen force impacted Su Mei intensely. The Mark of Eden released a wail as Ori and King drove it to its limits once again. By now, it was exhausting its quintessential lifeforce and intrinsic energies constituting its existence and mystical powers of conversion and infusion.

Two seconds. That was all they had before the Mark of Eden would no longer be able to resist the unseen force. It would vanish-forever.

The two shifted their locked gaze toward the hazy figure in unison, and noticing the correlation between the unseen force's resuming its inexplicable rampage on Su Mei's body and soul and the hazy figure's movement, they could only deduce that this hazy figure was the cause. Regardless of the urging within Wei Wuyin's heart to flee, run, and escape as far away as possible, he refused to stand down here.

HE REFUSED TO GIVE UP!

Likewise, Su Mei was unwilling to surrender to this calamity. She could only do a single thing.

The two's minds synced in perfect harmony.

FIGHT!

Shiiing!

Shiiing!

Two saber howls erupted; Su Mei drew upon King, Ori, and her Darklight Divine Soul to their maximum while Wei Wuyin converted Eden and Kratos into Omega Saber Starforce. The two flashed like moving shadows, rushing the hazy figure to the point that their forceful movements disturbed the celestial orbit of the Sky Heart Galaxy!

Wei Wuyin's thoughts were intensely focused on a single objective: Kill!

His older brother once said that should he unsheathe his saber, he must do so because of two things, and only two things-to kill or to protect. Moreover, with his saber in hand, he must always give it his all and beyond. Whenever a saber was drawn, the cultivator owed that to the saber, themselves, their loved ones, and their enemies.

Wei Wuyin's Saber Intent was born from this absolutist mentality of a saber cultivator. Should he draw his saber, the end would come, either to himself or to any calamity that existed. It was incredibly profound to the extent that his journey had given birth to the Omega Saber Soul Light, including Laws of Annihilation.

Su Mei's Saber Intent was steadfast and reliable, focused on being the fastest, never falling behind, and always present. It was as if it could engulf the entire world with a single thought and traverse worlds at light speed to always reach its target. It was all-encompassing and unforgettable. It carried her truest will and somehow perfectly accentuated Wei Wuyin's as if established by some intrinsic foundation of unity and harmony.

Perhaps...it was because the target that it wished to follow was the Omega Saber from the very beginning!

The two saber lights intertwined for millions of miles, illuminating the world in a silvery and dark light.

Wei Wuyin swung. He swung at the hazy figure with everything he had! His True Dragon Transformed was pushed to its limits and Little Defiant was sending copious amounts of power, far exceeding its limits into Wei Wuyin's body, to the point where the Stellar-Paragon Physique that hadn't been perfected was on the verge of fracturing at its foundation. His cells shrieked in agony yet it didn't stop him as he pushed him to swing the hardest and move the fastest.

Su Mei didn't hold back either. Inexplicably, an Astral Soul unbeknownst to her released its starforce into her saber. Killing Intent raged! She sliced her saber with her entire soul behind it!

They didn't swing just once! They shifted places and twisted their bodies, one forceful and heavy and the other beautiful and light, and they exchanged locations again and again, their sabers swinging through the hazy figure with unquestionable resolve.

Crisscrossing lights could be seen across the Sky Heart Galaxy as silvery and dark saber light danced in the starry skies. They danced a tango of soul and body and will. The unity between the two was unprecedented, and shockingly, with Ori and King supporting her, Su Mei wasn't lacking in strength or speed when compared to Wei Wuyin at all! Their attack touched upon an extremely indistinct law, the Law of Duality.

The Law of Duality was as profound as the Law of Origin, and enveloped concepts such as the Law of Yin and Yang, War and Peace, Life and Death, and many more that could be inexplicably grasped while immersed within it.

Unfortunately, the Prohibition of Heaven forbade its formation and resonance! Not even seeds were born.

Suddenly, the Mortal Dao's blessing, Mystic Dao's blessing, and the eternal aura within his Stellar-Paragon Physique grew abnormally active as they sent vivid warnings of critical danger and for riddance. However, how could Wei Wuyin care?

"I'll have to forcefully use this. It'll only be for a moment," Wei Wuyin said to the four Astral Souls with a hint of an apology. They didn't reply, but their silence was a tacit agreement to do whatever it took!

WHATEVER IT TAKES!

Wei Wuyin released Little Defiant! COMPLETELY! ENTIRELY!

The Solar Star was summoned to this world in full-blown. Its silvery radiance was capable of illuminating galaxies as its brilliance reached the nearby galaxies, from the White Abyssal Galaxy, Sky Heart Galaxy, No-Name Galaxy, Utmost Purity Galaxy, Prosperous Ruin Galaxy, Treasured Vale Galaxy and many others!

Numerous existences beyond the Mystic Ascendant Realm felt its presence as it emerged in full force. Little Defiant was dazzling to an absolute extreme, defying the common sense of any existing star.

Within its Star Core, two incredibly small figures in comparison existed alongside a hazy figure that was enveloped in blazing heat. It seemed unharmed, but it turned around. Its gaze stared at Wei Wuyin.

"Let's try again..." Wei Wuyin said as he brought Su Mei closer to him.

Idol of the Stellar Paragon!

Eighteen different colored lights swirled about and the silvery radiance of Little Defiant morphed instantly into an amalgamation of those colors. Wei Wuyin drew upon all six of his Laws and focused on his True Void Dragon Bloodline. There was nothing that could constrain them! Not even time!

The hazy figure's gaze lowered lightly and Wei Wuyin could feel a mental fluctuation of pity. It was infuriating to feel. But when he came back, just a few minutes before, he would...he would...it would be different! He swore that afterward, he would kill this bastard no matter what!

"AHHHHH!!! I WON'T LET YOU END LIKE THIS!!!!!" Wei Wuyin didn't know how to traverse through time, but he was relying on raw power to achieve it! He had to! Not only will he have children and a future with Mei Mei and the others, but he will also have a life with Su Mei! He will have a future with his wife!

"HELP ME HEAVENLY DAOS!" Within his True Soul, he cried out.

[RIGHT ARM]

Karmic Luck Value: 212,530.5.

First Calamity: Survived - 7/7.

Second Calamity: Claimed - 1/1.

Third Calamity: Claimed - 3/3.

Fourth Calamity: Suppressed - 18 Year....

Yet, despite his staunch will, an incomplete Stellar-Paragon Physique, an elementary True Void Dragon Bloodline, and a forced Astral Physique could do little. As for actively controlling his Karmic Luck, no miracle came. Even if he could, the Karmic Luck Value was not enough for the Heavenly Daos to harm the River of Time, lacking...quite a bit.

Su Mei died; the consequences of Wei Wuyin's reckless attempt were incalculable and yet...

That Su Mei's fate was decided.

-----

After mulling the matter of location for several minutes, Wei Wuyin's eyes closed for a moment. When they reopened, a light of decisiveness effused.

"Within."

He slowly rose as Cao Cuifen was seamlessly shifted onto the bed, her hands and body hugged and clenched around the remnant warmth of Wei Wuyin's body. She lightly breathed his scent and her shifting expression relaxed before she woke up. With the rise of her recent cultivation base, her sensitivity was heightened.

"You're leaving already?" Cao Cuifen asked in a seductively low voice.

Turning back to her gorgeous looks of this dazzling woman born and raised in an unforgiving time yet survived, her features enhanced by her renewed sense of cultivation and bright Heart of Cultivation bleeding through her aura, Wei Wuyin couldn't resist his urge to smile.

"I'll be back in a few days. Promise," that smile turned into a cheek grin, "and then I'll bring Suyin out too."

Erdiul's Note: Hm, so it's the other WW, the one who married all of his women (?). But what does this mean for Main timeline WW and Su Mei in the marriage department, author baited us I guess. Hopefully not. I personaly hate alternate timelines and reality shenaningens. Reminds me of all the shit Marvel comics like to do.
