Su Ming opened his eyes, and for the first time, there was a look as clear and profound as the stars in his eyes. He might be sitting in the cave abode, but He Feng felt as if Su Ming had fused together with the area around him. He could see him, but it was as if he did not exist.
Su Ming's eyes especially made He Feng's heart tremble. He had never seen this sort of gaze from Xuan Lun. Only prodigies like Han Fei Zi would have this sort of gaze that would make people feel as if they were immersed in it.
"Master?" He Feng was very nervous. At that moment, when he saw Su Ming, he felt as if his entire body was in pain. It was as if Su Ming's entire body was exuding a fierce aura that made He Feng unable to control his fear.
Su Ming turned his head around and looked at He Feng. The moment his gaze met He Feng's, He Feng shuddered and instinctively floated several dozens of feet backwards. His body felt as if it was about to collapse. He even had the misconception that a sharp arrow had pierced through his heart. All his thoughts were revealed under that one glance, and he could not hide even a single bit of them.
"Mas … Master …"
Su Ming smiled faintly. The pressure on his body instantly disappeared. His gaze also calmed down and returned to normal. He stretched his body, then stood up and let out a long breath.
"Let's go." Su Ming seized He Feng's Spirit Body with his right hand. He Feng was immediately sucked back into his body along with the cheering souls of the Wings of the Moon.
Yet this time, there was no need for the souls of the Wings of the Moon to be wary of He Feng. He Feng stayed still and did not dare move. He felt the small sword's presence and pressure once again in Su Ming's body. Under that fear, he also felt a deep respect towards Su Ming.
This respect came from Su Ming's mysteriousness. Even now, He Feng still could not understand why his treasure would act as if it had seen its long lost master when it saw Su Ming.
He Feng could no longer determine Su Ming's level of cultivation. He did not know how many blood veins Su Ming had, but he could guess that with the small virescent sword, even if Su Ming ran into Xuan Lun, he would not lose.
When Su Ming walked out of the mountain cave, it was already noon. The sun shone brightly and turned into a warm feeling as it fell on his body. Su Ming stood there and looked at the blue sky and white clouds. His eyes slowly lit up.
"Opportunities are hidden in danger … I've paid a lot of danger to obtain this sword this time. But all of this is worth it! " Su Ming lifted his right hand and touched the center of his brows. The mark of the sword was still flashing there, but as Su Ming touched it, the rate at which it flashed became slower, and after a moment, it disappeared without a trace.
'This sword gives me a sense of familiarity, and it doesn't repel me … Also, that red meadow is difficult for others to maintain by absorbing Qi and blood, but I don't feel this way when I use it. Instead, I feel very safe inside it …
'These two items were left behind by the ancestor of Han Mountain Tribe … Could it be that I have some sort of connection with him..?' Su Ming closed his eyes and stood unmoving at the entrance of the mountain cave with the wind blowing against his face.
'This sword … has opened up a path of flesh and blood in my body. This path … can allow me to absorb the power from the world to maintain the Branding Art!' Su Ming opened his eyes. This was his greatest gain besides the small sword. As he stood there, he could feel wisps of Qi floating towards him from the world around him. They seeped into his body through his pores. However, they were only small streams of Qi at the moment, but if this continued, there would come a day when they would turn into waves.
'This is a completely different type of training compared to the training of Qi … I previously trained to gather my blood and turn it into the power of my blood to strengthen my body and give me great physical strength. This is known as Blood Solidification.
'This type of training is clearly not training my blood, but a type of Qi that exists in the world. If that's the case, then I can call this type of training Qi Solidification!
'Blood Solidification can give me great strength, and I can use my blood to cast various Berserker Arts. 'As for Qi Solidification, there are only two uses for it now, but it's very powerful!' Su Ming did not make any hand seals, neither did he bring out the stone coins to hold them. With just one thought, all the movements within a circular area of 2,000 feet immediately appeared in his mind.
At the same time, the mark of the sword that had disappeared from the center of Su Ming's brows flashed once again. With a green light, the small sword flew out from the center of Su Ming's brows and charged into the distance like lightning. It was so fast that it could not be seen with the naked eye.
Green arcs surrounded the area of 2,000 feet around Su Ming. They swam around continuously but only within that area. Once they left that distance, the green light would become dimmer, as if it could no longer fly stably.
Yet to Su Ming, 2,000 feet was enough.
However, using the small sword was not easy. In just the span of a few breaths, Su Ming felt as if his head was swollen and his vision blurred. The Qi that he had gathered with great difficulty in the path he had just opened disappeared, causing the circular area of 2,000 feet in his head to continuously shrink. It was clear that he had used up too much of his energy.
'Five breaths is the right amount. If I go past that, it'll be very difficult for me to continue.' Su Ming quickly put the small sword back into the center of his brows. His head was hurting badly but he could not increase the speed at which he absorbed the aura of the world around him. He could only slowly absorb it into his body and store it in his path.
'The training of this Qi Condensation shouldn't be so slow. Perhaps it's because I don't have a way to absorb the aura. That's why I can only do this.
But … the ancestor of Han Mountain Tribe might have a way to increase the speed of absorption. ' Su Ming touched the storage bag in his bosom with his right hand and a white stone coin immediately appeared in his hand. Once he held it in his hand, he could clearly feel the same aura within the stone coin. It was being absorbed by his body quickly. As he absorbed it, his headache gradually disappeared and he returned to normal.
However, the white stone coin had become slightly duller.
'No wonder Han Fei Zi and Xuan Lun were fighting for it. This type of training is different from the Blood Solidification Realm. If it's used well, the power will be extraordinary … Looks like I'll have to go to the place where the ancestor of Han Mountain Tribe passed away …' Su Ming took a step forward and left the mountain cave. He did not return, but instead ran deeper into the mountains.
'Mountain Spirit has lost its effect and I've also eaten the Berserker Blood. I have plenty of Qi now and my blood veins have increased by quite a lot. It's time for me to perform the burning of blood! 'Once I succeed, then my power will increase once again. From then on, I'll no longer be a weakling. With the small sword in the Qi Condensation Realm and the souls of the Wings of the Moon, if I Transcend at full power … won't I be able to win?' Su Ming's face was filled with anticipation and determination.
After running for a few days and nearly half a month, Su Ming was already very far away from Han Mountain City. The place was empty. The sky was blue and the land was filled with mountains. Only the roars of birds and beasts could be heard, but not a single person could be seen.
This vast land was the isolation ground Su Ming had prepared for himself. He wanted to perform the fifth burning of blood and increase the number of blood veins in his body once again.
When he performed the burning of blood, the world would change and abnormalities would appear. However, in this land where people rarely came, the possibility of this change being noticed by others would be greatly reduced.
Su Ming had been sitting at the top of a mountain for seven days. During these seven days, he did not move and immersed himself in circulating the Qi in his body, waiting … for the arrival of the full moon.
Another three days passed. When night fell, the sky was dark, but there was a bright moon hanging high in the sky. That moon was not crescent, but a full moon!
The moment the full moon appeared, Su Ming, who had been sitting on the ground without moving for ten days, opened his eyes. He Feng was already enveloped by Su Ming's Brand, causing him to be unable to see the outside world. Su Ming did not want others to know his secrets.
The shadow of the moon was reflected in his eyes. He lifted his head and looked at the full moon in the sky. Su Ming took a deep breath and circulated the Qi in his body. Banging sounds also echoed around him.
This was the first time Su Ming released all the Qi in his body after he absorbed all the Berserker Blood.
400 blood veins instantly covered Su Ming's entire body. They shone with a red light and dyed the entire mountain red. Su Ming's expression was solemn. As the shadow of the moon became clearer in his eyes, the blood veins in his body appeared once again.
The number of blood veins increased from 400 to 460. The blood veins were densely packed and covered Su Ming's entire body, causing the bloody light around him to become even thicker.
Yet this was not Su Ming's peak. He took a deep breath and blood capillaries appeared in his eyes. These blood capillaries did not appear because of anger or excitement, but because Su Ming's Qi had reached its peak. As he circulated the Qi in his body, it caused his eyes to become bloodshot as well.
Soon after, more blood veins appeared on Su Ming's body. 470, 480, 490 … When the number of blood veins reached 510, a powerful presence appeared on Su Ming's body.
This was the strongest power he could display after he absorbed all the Berserker Blood! Berserker Blood was not supposed to have such a great effect. The reason why Su Ming could increase his blood veins so much was because he had been taking Mountain Spirit for the past few years. Even if Mountain Spirit had lost its effectiveness, the remnants that remained in his body still had some effects. Under the stimulation of the Berserker Blood, it was as if his entire body had been cleansed. A large part of his potential had been developed, that was why it was so shocking.
After the eighth level of the Blood Solidification Realm, the number of blood veins needed to reach the ninth, tenth, and eleventh level was no longer fixed. Once a Berserker had more than 500 blood veins, they would be known as the later stage of the Blood Solidification Realm.
Even if the title was the same, it was different for everyone. 500 blood veins meant the later stage of the Blood Solidification Realm, 781 blood veins meant the later stage of the Blood Solidification Realm, 900 blood veins meant the later stage of the Blood Solidification Realm, and even 949 blood veins meant the later stage of the Blood Solidification Realm.
Only after 950 blood veins could a Berserker be known as having attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm! However, there were not many people who could do this. If a Berserker could manifest more than 980 blood veins, then they would have attained the legendary great completion in the Blood Solidification Realm. These people were rare even in big tribes.
The Qi in Su Ming's body was completely unleashed. He looked at the moon in the sky and his eyes were filled with fire. It was as if his entire body was burning. From afar, he looked like a man made of fire.
His expression was calm. He lifted his right hand slowly and bit the tip of his finger. Blood flowed out and he touched his left pupil. The moment his blood and fire touched each other, Su Ming's will to become a powerful Berserker was ignited.
At that moment, his blood was burning! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
