High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 371 - 303: Crystal Human Form’s Warning, Suppressing the Black Smoke

Chapter 371: Chapter 303: Crystal Human Form’s Warning, Suppressing the Black Smoke

Su Mu’s expression suddenly tensed, and he immediately entered a state of introspection.

He saw two wisps of black smoke, exuding an evil aura, rising in his sea of consciousness, which was as dazzling as a sea of stars.

"This is the black smoke that erodes the aura of the Martial Saint!"

Su Mu immediately recognized the presence rampaging in his sea of consciousness, which had triggered a strong warning from the Crystal Human Form. It was the black smoke contained in the Celestial Clouds Phenomenon Map he entered when he activated the celestial phenomena of a thousand kunpengs and thousand apes on Celestial Cloud Mountain that day.

At that time, this black smoke disappeared under the suppression of the fist shadow of the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, the Crystal Human Form, and the Incomplete Crystal containing the Crystal Visualization Technique.

Su Mu had thought that the black smoke had completely dissipated by then.

Unexpectedly, it had merely gone dormant.

The original wisp of black smoke had grown into two wisps in a short period.

"What on earth is this thing?"

The black smoke made Su Mu’s hair stand on end once again. Without hesitation, Su Mu immediately used the Crystal Visualization Technique to merge completely with his flesh.

Su Mu immediately entered the state of Crystal Transformation. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Upon entering the Crystal Transformation, a bit of spiritual power spread out rapidly, causing the teachers and students of Linjiang Base Ninth Middle School in the building to groan, their heads feeling as if they had been struck violently.

They collapsed to the ground like falling chives.

In the state of Crystal Transformation, Su Mu could feel more acutely the evil and terror contained in the two wisps of black smoke.

At this moment, in the eyes of the Crystal Human Form, the black smoke was merging with his sea of consciousness, or rather, polluting and eroding it. Soon, Su Mu in the Crystal Transformation state lost control of that part of his sea of consciousness.

"No, I can’t let this thing run rampant."

Su Mu’s eyes flashed with fierce light as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Desolate Cage!"

The Crystal Human Form raised its hand.

A giant hand suddenly rose in the sea of consciousness, seizing the two wisps of black smoke. The black smoke transformed into two ferocious black figures, baring their fangs and claws.

"Trying to escape? Suppress them for me!"

The eyes of the Crystal Human Form gleamed with a diamond-like radiance. The giant hand expanded suddenly, transforming into a cage that sealed the two figures inside.

"Desolate Chain!"

The right hand of the Crystal Human Form clenched suddenly.

From within the cage, six silver chains shot out, piercing the two black figures and locking them in place. The struggle of the two figures diminished considerably, though they continued to resist.

Upon realizing this, Su Mu’s expression grew even more solemn. The Desolate Chain surprisingly couldn’t completely confine the black smoke, and it even seemed to be slowly eroding the Desolate Chain.

"The Desolate Chain not only cannot confine but also gets eroded by the black smoke?"

"What in the world is this?"

Su Mu’s powerful spiritual power swept over the two figures in front of him, but this time he failed. He couldn’t see through the black smoke figures and could only sense an extreme evilness and indescribable horror from them.

Subsequently, Su Mu attempted to completely eliminate the black smoke but found it very troublesome, at least not something that could be accomplished in a short time.

Su Mu withdrew his gaze, his heart filled with a hint of lingering fear.

The black smoke evidently had some awareness and intelligence, choosing to run rampant when he was on the verge of backlash. Fortunately, the backlash wasn’t as severe as he expected.

Otherwise, it would have been challenging to deal with if the black smoke acted up during his upcoming battle.

Su Mu currently didn’t have the time to entangle too much with the two black smoke figures. He lifted his hand, tossed the two figures to the edge of the sea of consciousness, and constructed a cage to temporarily confine them.

With a thought, the Crystal Transformation was lifted. As Su Mu opened his eyes, preparing to leave, he noticed the unusual state of the teachers and students in the building, his figure swaying.

He walked into a classroom, checked it, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It’s just a mild fainting. Fortunately, there aren’t many teachers and students in this building."

Silver radiance flashed in Su Mu’s eyes before his figure disappeared.

A few minutes later, the teacher at the podium in a particular classroom was the first to wake up. He rubbed his head, and only after a while did his blank mind recover.

"What just happened?"

As the teachers and students gradually woke up, Su Mu’s figure quietly vanished.

...

A car stopped at the dormitory entrance; a tall figure first stepped out and pressed the doorbell.

The door opened.

The person behind the door was initially stunned, then suddenly jumped into the embrace of the tall figure.

"Dad, it’s Dad back, along with Grandpa and Grandma!"

Very soon, a little head popped out. His daughter, Xiaoyue, dashed out excitedly and snuggled up in front of the two of them. Feeling the gaze from behind, Miaomiao let go of her hand with a blush on her cheeks, while Su Mu smiled and picked up his daughter.

Afterwards, Teacher Wang Shuheng, Little Junior Sister Zhao Meng, Little One, Zhou Lei, and others all came out.

Looking at these concerned faces in front of him, Su Mu felt his determination in a certain thought becoming stronger.

Now that he had returned to his family, the Book of Destiny foretold that Jing He would appear next. If this person came, he wouldn’t be able to evade Su Mu’s spiritual power detection.

At this moment, Su Mu’s spiritual power could easily cover the entire Shenjiang Martial Arts University. Everything and everyone there were under Su Mu’s control.

He must resolve this hidden danger in the shadows thoroughly before heading to the Southern War Zone. He didn’t want someone lurking in the dark watching him in the future.

There is no reason for a thousand days keeping guard against a thief after a thousand days of thievery.

Moreover, how could one allow another to peep by the bedside?

At this time, Miaomiao began to examine Su Mu up and down, like checking if he had any missing arms or legs. After a thorough inspection, she finally felt at ease, breathing a sigh of relief.

Su Mu chuckled and cooperatively spun around a few times, "I’m fine, it was all just show effects, I already explained everything to Mom and Dad just now."

"You have the nerve to say that, you brat! Your guts really have grown, daring to confront a Grandmaster now... but it’s good that you’re back and safe."

"Senior Brother, what happened with the exchange meeting later?"

"Yeah, I watched the live broadcast and it never came back on, then I searched online and found no news reports, so strange..."

"Actually, nothing much. It’s just that a Martial Saint Disciple lost this time, causing embarrassment, so they couldn’t continue broadcasting." As he said this, Su Mu paused and did not continue.

Hearing this, everyone present began to make their own assumptions.

Then Xiaoyue remembered something and asked.

"Dad, where’s Foodie?"

"Foodie is probably taking a nap in the War Zone now. In a few days, I’ll take you to the War Zone to play with Foodie." With that, Su Mu glanced at everyone present.

"By then, let’s all go for an outing. I’ll show everyone around the War Zone. There are many fun places, and a lot of military families live there. The area can actually be considered a city, with everything you need."

Hearing this, Miaomiao and Xiaoyue naturally had no objection, and Teacher Wang Shuheng, Little Junior Sister, and others showed expressions of anticipation.

They haven’t had the chance to go to the War Zone yet, and they naturally don’t want to miss this opportunity.

As for Zhou Lei and others, they were a bit hesitant, as they may not have a vacation.

"Captain Su, I might not be able to go..."

"It’s okay. If you’re just worried about leave, I’m now the principal of Shenjiang Martial Arts University, I can grant you leave."

Zhou Lei was taken aback and then also showed a look of anticipation.

After this, everyone quickly found an excuse to leave. They all knew Su Mu had just returned and needed time alone with his family.

Once everyone left, Miaomiao asked.

"Su Mu, how long are you staying this time?"

"I’ll stay a few more days this time, since there isn’t much going on lately." Su Mu thought for a moment before speaking, not sure when Jing He would appear.

This world is much larger than in the previous life. A city in Huaxia now is larger than a province back then. Traveling from the Northwest Land to Guangshen Province by plane takes nearly a day.

Plus, with the projection of Qingfeng Martial Saint descending, news spread could even be delayed.

Maybe Jing He has only just set out now.

At night, Su Mu and Miaomiao prepared a table full of dishes. The family of five enjoyed the meal happily, watching TV, and their daughter Xiaoyue shared amusing stories from school recently.

It made Xiaoyue’s grandparents laugh heartily, and Miaomiao occasionally shared some witty remarks, while Su Mu listened with a smile, never getting tired of hearing them.

As night fell, the weather became slightly chilly. However, Guangshen Province, located in the south, doesn’t get too cold even in winter, and most areas don’t see snow.

That night, Su Mu patiently guided Miaomiao and his daughter Xiaoyue in their cultivation. His daughter was very excited, and this time Miaomiao listened with utmost seriousness, asking many questions about cultivation, which Su Mu answered one by one.

After the mother and daughter fell asleep, Su Mu quietly left the dormitory. In his eyes, the night was as bright as day.

Very quickly, dozens of figures emerged from the darkness.

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"Leader Su, this is what we ought to do!"

Su Mu’s tone was very gentle, but in front of him, a group of elite soldiers from the War Zone couldn’t stop trembling. Their bodies felt like they were facing a terrifying Fierce Beast deep within a Beast Cave, their scalp tingling, and their foreheads covered with a fine sheen of sweat.

Immediately, Su Mu inquired about the recent situation, and after learning all he needed, everyone returned to the darkness, relieved.

Afterwards, Su Mu pondered for a moment and took out a satellite phone.

"Mu Feng, could you help me exchange for another batch of Spirit Marrow over the next few days? The more, the better."

"Understood!"

After the call, Su Mu looked back at a certain rooftop before turning to leave.
