As soon as Su Mo emerged from the Heart Tree, he took a single step and vanished from its space.
When the other three left the Heart Tree, they found only traces left by strands of the power of laws in the void.
Wen Ge and Hong Xia exchanged a silent glance. Only Little Milk Baby gave chase...
Su Mo crossed the void again and again, leaving the Ancestral Image World outright.
Like a headless fly, he wove between the Immortal Domain's mountains that towered into the clouds.
Beneath his feet lay mountains wreathed in mist; ahead lay a vast expanse with no destination in sight...
Su Mo kept his head lowered, silent all the while.
After flying for who knew how long, he finally stopped atop a mountain.
He simply stood on that peak, gazing at the sea of clouds, for an entire day...
Flowing clouds surged like a tide, and that white expanse of mist gradually darkened. An enormous moon like a jade platter appeared in the Immortal Domain's sky.
This seemed to be the first time he had taken such a good look at... a night in the Immortal Domain.
"Are we really not going to help her?" The Brush of All Living Beings' low voice sounded beside Su Mo's ear.
Su Mo did not answer. He merely gazed at that bright moon.
"Actually, being trapped in endlessly repeating reincarnation has been painful for her, too..."
Su Mo's gaze flickered, and he said coldly, "What are you trying to say?"
The Brush of All Living Beings sighed. "Couldn't you tell? She, too, is bent on seeking death!"
"She doesn't only want to free those tree spirits from reincarnation. She's also trying to free herself..."
"An endlessly repeating reincarnation... it must be unbearably lonely."
Su Mo said nothing.
