Martial World's
Ch 1999 - Seeing Ruby Once Again
…
…
…
Within the Akashic Dream Universe, many places were under the suppression of Laws; the Battlefield Dream Battlefield was such a place. Any martial artist who entered the Akashic Dream Battle would be oppressed into the heavenly God realm, a realm equivalent to the Soul God realm among spirits. As for those who had yet to reach that level, their cultivation would increase forcibly.
Even though everyone was suppressed to the same cultivation realm, one's understanding of one's Laws and cultivation method was maintained. In other words, the Empyrean powerhouse in the Akashic Dream Battle could still instantly wipe out the lives of several hundred Soul God juniors in a single strike.
In the past when Lin Ming entered the Akashic Dream Battle, he was one of those protected by the Laws. He used this Law to take down Empyrean Myriad Ghost, whose cultivation was limited.
But now, Lin Ming was a person who was limited by Laws.
Although his cultivation had been passed down, when one considered his understanding of Laws, his cultivation method, and his bloodline, it was his, he was likely the most fearsome heavenly God powerhouse ever to appear in the history of trial challengers entering the Akashic Dream Battlefield.
The Battlefield of the Akashic Dream is vast. In such a vast land, it was hard to find a little girl.
However, Lin Ming actually knew where Ruby often liked to go.
He launched his movement technique starting to fly towards the spot from his memory.
Immediately, he saw a huge canyon in front of him. Many martial artists had gathered in this canyon.
Seeing this, Lin Ming smiled.
Lin Ming was familiar with this canyon. The first time Lin Ming entered the Akashic Dream Battlefield, this was where he found Ruby.
This place was called the Cave of Souls, and it was Ruby's house.
It's a very deep cave. Inside were many soul beings formed from the spiritual energy of the Akashic Dream Universe. There were also many other dangers such as god and ghost gates, or even wild soul storms.
At this moment, more and more martial artists gathered at the entrance of the Soul Cave. These were disciples that came from great influences throughout the Soul World. In general, the disciples from small influences did not dare to enter the Soul Cave.
These people waited until they gathered enough manpower to forcefully open the soul force field that blocked the entrance of the Soul Cave.
Entering the Soul Cave carries considerable risk, but they must do this to search for the precious medicines bred within the Soul Cave by the source of the soul force within it.
To the spiritas, these spirit medicines were supreme treasures.
But outside the entrance of the Soul Cave, a purple mist enveloped the area. This purple mist was a kind of force field, and if one wanted to enter, they would have to pierce through this purple fog force field. It requires tremendous power.
In less than an hour, the trial challenger managed to gather enough strength. They arranged a battle line, preparing to break through the force field with everything they had.
But suddenly, the purple mist outside the Soul Cave gently trembled. This feeling was like a plume of smoke being pierced by a swallow, and part of the smoke was carried away.
The trial challenger was shocked for quite some time. What the hell is going on?
They were not sure if someone was coming in or not. But thinking about it, only who could directly pass through this force field, so fast that they could not even see their shadows?
Thus, the trial challengers continued to spin and gather their energy, intending to open a path through the force field.
Now Lin Ming had already entered the Soul Cave. He instantly crossed several miles in a single step, passed through the ghost gate and the God of Soul Cave, passed through the soul storm, and avoided the terrifying soul beasts. In fact, this terrifying soul beast did not pose a threat to Lin Ming. Or, it could be more accurate to say that they had never sensed Lin Ming passing through them to begin with.
As Lin Ming arrived at the deepest part of the Soul Cave, he suddenly slowed down. At this moment, his figure began to slowly condense into reality, like a group of remnant shadows that were being gathered.
In the deepest depths of the Cave of Souls, there were beautiful underground mountains and rivers. Due to the rich soul force here, it had condensed into soul springs that flowed down these mountains, pulling to the extreme.
In front of these beautiful mountains and rivers was the soul of a gorilla-like beast. The soul of this beast was golden in color and its body was towering and huge, its physique was firmly tied with strong muscles. It was the ruler of this land. In normal time, it would be the absolute nightmare of any trial challenger entering the Soul Cave. Even a peak Great World King would very likely be torn to shreds if they faced this terrifying Evil Beast while being suppressed by the Laws.
After Lin Ming appeared, the golden gorilla was shocked. Then the shock turned into anger. It tried to attack Lin Ming, but Lin Ming only defended his back to the ferocious beast, not even taking a single glance at it. Lin Ming's eyes were focused on a place high above the mountains, as if he was looking at something. He had a focused look in his eyes.
This abandonment is undoubtedly a great challenge and provocation against the authority of the golden gorilla. But for some unknown reason, this golden gorilla who was originally eager for battle could feel the soul aura of the tiny human that made his heart tremble.
This aura caused him to slowly retreat. Then, turn around and run.
Lin Ming did not care about this. He continued to look up 60 degrees into the air. The end of his vision was a piece of rock protruding out of the mountain. On this stone was spirit medicine. A small number of springs condensed soul power gently fell on top of this spirit medicine and splashed it, causing it to give off a faint medicinal scent.
After the incense stick of time, a red glow of energy light slowly gathered behind this spirit medicine. Then, like a thick fog being flown in to reveal a red flower, a little girl dressed in red appeared.
He sat on the rock. His bare feet and little calves swung to the beat. His toes were dipped into the spirit spring, causing small circles to ripple outward.
This little girl is Ruby.
She still looked like a porcelain doll with a cute face and like a baby. A timid expression hung on his face, mixed with vigilance and confusion as he looked at Lin Ming.
"You-you ... find-me?"
This little girl was puzzled for a moment before she suddenly asked Lin Ming a question. Since he was ashamed of strangers, he stuttered slightly as he spoke.
However, just as he spoke, his tiny nose twitched. His large black eyes flickered as he stared at Lin Ming's stomach.
Lin Ming knew he sensed the Magic Cube.
Ruby was the condensed soul energy of a supreme elder, likely an Immortal Sovereign, who had condensed through the Laws of the Magic Cube. He was a mystic Law life form that had evolved over countless years.
His rank was much, much lower than the Magic Cube. But, he had many inexplicable links to the Magic Cube, as if he was part of it.
In fact, as Lin Ming neared the depths of the Soul Cave, he had to rely on his soul power that had been greatly enhanced in his sixth reincarnation as well as his increased control over the Magic Cube to capture the scent of Ruby aura. So, he could feel something about the stone coming out. Otherwise, if Ruby deliberately wanted to hide, even Sheng Mei or the Soul Emperor would not be able to find any traces of her.
"Eh? You are…"
As Ruby looked at Lin Ming, she felt a binding familiarity with him. Thus, there was a hint of confusion in his eyes. And the more he looked, the more intense this familiar feeling became. Within the smell Lin Ming exuded from his body, he suddenly started to remember who this middle-aged man was. This was the elder brother he had met long ago in the Akashic Dream Battlefield.
The truth is that no appearance-altering technique can fool Ruby. But, after Lin Ming underwent six reincarnations, his own aura changed slightly. This made it so that Ruby did not recognize him immediately.
Ruby's response made Lin Ming satisfied with the technique of changing his appearance. The reason she accidentally announced her own identity was to allow Ruby to find out who she really was.
As a result, even Ruby hesitated. If so, then even a True Divinity like the Soaring Feather God King would not be able to recognize him at all.
"Sister Lin, it's you! You're back!"
Ruby shouted agitatedly. He jumped down from the rock.
Lin Ming and Ruby did not spend too much time together, nor did they undergo the trials of life or death on each other's side. For whatever reason, their relationship should not be deep, but the reality was that Lin Ming had left a deep impression on Ruby, and this was due to the existence of the Magic Cube.
Ruby had an innate attachment to Lin Ming. It's a kind of instinct.
When Lin Ming left the Akashic Dream Universe and parted ways with Ruby, Ruby had been lethargic for several days. This kind of feeling was like a cat left behind by its master.
"Mm, I'm back!"
Lin Ming could see the sincere happiness in Ruby's eyes, a true joy that could never be faked. He was touched by it too.
Over the years, he had hidden his identity. Today was the first time someone she knew recognized her. This kind of feeling made him warm.
"Sister Lin, are you going to leave soon?"
"I . It's not my world, and there's a lot I have to do. ”
As Lin Ming said this, suddenly Ruby was sad. His little head fell down as he muttered, ". Oh …"
Although she was embarrassed, she did not know how to hide her feelings. Everything he felt was written all over his expression.
Lin Ming smiled. He patted Ruby on the head and said, "Ruby, do you want to go with me? To see the outside world? "
"Huh?" Ruby's stunned.
"Go ... with Big Brother Lin?"
Ever since he gained consciousness, he seemed to have always existed in this strange world. He never went to see what was outside, and in fact he never thought that there was another world outside.
As if this was also part of his instincts.
Just today Lin Ming's words caused an inexplicable uproar in his heart.
“The world outside is bigger, and even more interesting. But ... It's also much more dangerous. '' As Lin Ming said these words, he was perplexed by what he said. On one hand, he felt like he sounded like an uncle trying to kidnap a little girl. But, ever since he came to look for Ruby, he already had the confidence that he could protect her and fight against a great calamity.
At the same time, he also believed that if Ruby followed him, he could help her grow bigger in the Magic Cube.
Ruby was silent for a long time. He tilted his head and looked at Lin Ming, seemingly reading through all sorts of things from his expressions and eyes.
He bit his lips and forcefully nodded. Then, he gently and firmly said, “I will. ”
