Chapter 968: Black Impermanence Claims a Life

The Catastrophe Devil Body is ranked 199th on the Special Physique list, but it is a frightful physique feared by all.

From birth, this physique continuously causes disasters in its surroundings, and as the person grows, the scale of the disasters also grows.

The woman in front of him is not only a powerhouse at the Supreme Realm Ninth Layer, but her Catastrophe Devil Body has also reached Great Accomplishment.

This means that she is extraordinary, at least not the kind of person who would be taking a cloudship.

But since she is on the cloudship and cloaked in a black robe, it is clear she doesn’t want to reveal herself. As for her intentions, Su Han doesn’t intend to delve deeply.

Everyone has their own matters; Su Han’s own affairs are already troublesome enough, so he naturally won’t concern himself with others’ issues. As for the Catastrophe Devil Body, Su Han won’t just see a special physique and think of devouring it.

Only enemies will be targeted by Su Han; as for others, as long as they don’t provoke him, Su Han generally won’t harbor murderous intent.

Outwardly holy, inwardly demonic, there is still some saintly heart left!

At this moment, the woman came to the deck, seemingly stifled too long in the cabin and came out for fresh air. Su Han didn’t have an opinion on this and retracted his gaze, continuing to walk toward the cabin.

Better not to get involved in others’ troubles!

"Holy shit, where did that tornado come from? It’s so huge, Captain, come out quickly!"

Just then, an exclamation echoed from the crowd, causing Su Han to halt his steps and look back.

In front, a colossal tornado appeared, rising majestically, its origin unknown, but it was already eight thousand meters in size, stirring heaven and earth, with dust filling the sky, and its path was directed towards the cloudship.

This cloudship, despite having many Defensive Arrays engraved on it, could not withstand this massive tornado. Once caught, the entire cloudship would disintegrate, and everyone’s life on board would be in peril.

This was a massive catastrophe!

"Activate all formations, turn the shiphead, and avoid to the west!"

The captain, a martial artist of the Supreme Realm, gaped at the tornado in shock, but being a seasoned veteran, he quickly suppressed his astonishment and made the right arrangements.

But the cloudship, only three hundred meters long, was too small compared to the eight-thousand-meter tornado. Even with meticulous arrangements, fortune still had to be on their side; if not, all arrangements would be in vain.

Boom!

At this moment, the tornado moved at an extremely fast pace, and the cloudship was exactly in its path of advance. The fierce winds rapidly closed in, violently shaking the entire cloudship.

"I don’t want to just wait here to die; I want to fight for my survival!"

Some martial artists were unwilling to stay on the cloudship any longer. They voluntarily flew out, trying to create a path for survival. Such martial artists were not few, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen had flown out.

However, these dozen people had scarcely flown far before being caught in the strong winds, with some sucked into the tornado directly, and others blown wildly, their life and death uncertain.

Seeing this scene, the remaining martial artists on the cloudship dared not venture out anymore, entrusting their only hope for survival to the cloudship and its captain.

The panic spread among the people on the cloudship, but Su Han’s focus was on the woman with the Catastrophe Devil Body.

If his guess was right, this tornado should have been drawn by that woman.

And based on his knowledge of the Catastrophe Devil Body, it might not be the woman’s intention. The Catastrophe Devil Body cannot control disasters until it reaches the Perfected Realm. Although some disasters can be manipulated at the Great Accomplishment stage, manipulation and control are different things.

The Catastrophe Devil Body is inherently ominous. Even if the woman did not intentionally draw the disaster, disasters would arise because of her. Thus, people with such special physiques are usually solitary because those around them cannot withstand the disasters and inevitably leave them.

"Troublesome!"

Although Su Han knew everything, he had no intention of intervening; firstly, the tornado was too massive, and even if he exerted all his strength, he might not be able to dispel it. Secondly, he didn’t want to expose his powers yet, and as for saving others, he didn’t have enough saintly heart for that.

So he planned to use others as a cover and escape this place once the cloudship could no longer sustain itself.

"The tornado is coming!"

The captain yelled desperately; even though he had made efforts, the tornado’s speed was too fast, and the cloudship lacked agility, making escape impossible at this point.

Boom!

The tornado appeared, and the fierce winds dragged the cloudship into the tornado’s vortex. In an instant, this intricately arranged cloudship shattered, quickly breaking apart.

Countless wooden debris flew, and in no time, the whole cloudship turned into fragments. The martial artists inside couldn’t escape, struggling desperately, shouting, and even crying out.

Unfortunately, all struggles were futile. They were torn apart by the fierce winds, ultimately dismembered, blood splattering the sky, dead without a complete corpse.

The cloudship was destroyed. The captain was dead, and none of the other martial artists survived; this disaster was utterly devastating.

But at this time, Su Han used the Character Technique of Motion, achieving three times the speed of sound, breaking through the pulling winds, and quickly escaping the tornado.

With his strength, though incapable of cutting through the tornado, Su Han found it quite easy to escape.

Shortly thereafter, Su Han descended from the sky, landing on the ground, distancing himself from the tornado, avoiding further involvement.

"Seems like I’ll have to find a new cloudship!"

Su Han was unscathed; only the cloudship was destroyed, and he would have to set out again, which wasted a bit of time but wasn’t too detrimental.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Su Han’s expression shifted as he looked up to see a figure also escaping from the tornado — the woman with the Catastrophe Devil Body.

The tornado was drawn by her. Although the Catastrophe Devil Body attracts numerous disasters, it has one distinctive feature — it does not harm the person possessing the Catastrophe Devil Body. Thus, the woman remained unharmed.

However, Su Han did not wish to expose himself, so he used the Earth Escape technique to burrow underground, concealing his aura, intending to wait until the woman left before making his own exit.

Unexpectedly, the woman didn’t leave but instead stopped in her tracks.

"Du Yao, I didn’t expect you to dare to return. By the order of the prison master, I am here to capture you today. Surrender now to avoid needless suffering!"

At this moment, a strange voice suddenly rang out.

There was a spatial fluctuation, and then a black figure stepped out, appearing before the woman.

This was a tall man, dressed in black, his face covered by a black, ferocious mask, with a shadowy crown on his head. He held a long iron chain, and upon closer look, the crown bore the four characters "Peace Under Heaven."

"Black Impermanence?"

Su Han was shocked; the attire of this man was identical to the Black Impermanence from myth and legend.

What was happening here?
