In the blink of an eye, a month passed by.
The hidden grounds under Han Mountain City became ancient a month ago. From then on, it was no longer a secret. People could enter and leave the place at will, and they would no longer run into any sort of seals.
The secret that had surrounded Han Mountain City for many years had disappeared.
Besides the leaders of the three tribes and a limited number of tribe members, very few people knew of the great change that had happened in this place a month ago. They only knew and only saw that a month ago, a shocking boom reverberated in the air, and a person flew out from the canyons under Han Mountain City. Behind that person was a gigantic phantom that roared and chased after him.
At the same time, when the person flew out, a person from Tranquil East Tribe and Puqiang Tribe rushed out to intercept him.
The battle did not last long. In the end, the person died and his head was cut off.
The outsiders did not know who that person was, but the leaders of the three tribes knew that this person was Han Mountain's ancestor …
The death of Han Mountain's ancestor caused the three tribes to no longer belong to the slave tribes. They obtained the freedom they had been longing for, and they no longer needed to keep their tribes in Han Mountain. They could develop further.
Lake of Colors Tribe obtained all the things left behind in the giant sword-ship of Han Mountain's ancestor. Freezing Sky Clan did not ask for these things. The old man in red robes only took the sword-ship and left with his people.
Lake of Colors Tribe had also gained an epiphany regarding the fourth layer of the Relocation Art. When faced with the silent Tranquil East Tribe and Puqiang Tribe, Lake of Colors Tribe chose to migrate. They gave up on their control over Han Mountain City and sent out a notice to dismiss all their guests. They would use a year's time to leave.
Besides this, Lake of Colors Tribe gave all the herbs in the originally hidden grounds under Han Mountain City to Puqiang and Tranquil East. They did not take much with them, leaving most of them behind to ease the tension between the three tribes. After all, the three tribes had developed a certain degree of alliance after hundreds of years of entanglement. If they broke down because of this, then the losses would outweigh the gains.
When the people of Han Mountain City learned of this news, they came to the originally hidden grounds filled with curiosity towards this mysterious place. Some of them did manage to find some herbs and serendipitous encounters, but most of them returned empty-handed.
However, to these outsiders, being able to come to this mysterious place of the past and see with their own eyes the place that made the three tribes stay in Han Mountain for hundreds of years was enough to satisfy some of the mysteries of this place.
During this month, an unprecedented number of people came to this once mysterious place. A large number of Berserkers from Han Mountain City came to this place, causing the place to gradually lose its sense of mystery.
As Lake of Colors Tribe dismissed their guests, Puqiang Tribe also dismissed their guests because they no longer had any desire. They no longer needed their guests' help.
It was the same for Tranquil East Tribe. The departure of the guests caused the three tribes to resume their seclusion, and it also changed the structure of Han Mountain City.
However, these changes became insignificant when Freezing Sky Clan's disciple recruitment, which happened once every few years, arrived.
The entire Han Mountain City became lively once again. In the midst of the commotion, all the outsiders who came to the city talked about the recruitment of disciples for Freezing Sky Clan.
Almost all the Berserkers in the Land of South Morning longed to join Freezing Sky Clan or Western Sea Clan, and the people who came to Han Mountain City chose to join Freezing Sky Clan.
Freezing Sky Clan was incredibly strict when it came to recruiting disciples. They had their own unique system. For example, if they were not part of the three tribes in Han Mountain City, they would have to challenge the Chains of Han Mountain to prove their worth.
However, this was just to prove their worth. It was not certain whether they would be accepted.
At the same time, during this month, there was a name that started circulating in a small circle in Han Mountain City until it became a topic of discussion. This name was uttered by Nan Tian, acknowledged by Xuan Lun in silence, searched for by Han Fei Zi from Lake of Colors Tribe, and gradually, almost everyone in Han Mountain City knew of this name.
This name was Mo Su!
In the midst of the discussions, the people in Han Mountain City gradually became familiar with this name, and from that familiarity, they could sense the strength and mysteriousness of this person.
He was a new guest from Tranquil East Tribe. His power was unfathomable. Yan Guang from Lake of Colors Tribe had died in his hands, but Lake of Colors Tribe did not pursue the matter.
Tranquil East Tribe sent away all their guests, but they kept one person's name. That person was the mysterious Mo Su!
It was rumored that this person had already reached the Transcendence Realm. One month ago, he stood on equal footing with Nan Tian in the hidden grounds of Han Mountain. Not only did he intimidate Xuan Lun, he also fought against Han Fei Zi.
There was no result from that battle, but ever since Han Fei Zi returned to Lake of Colors Tribe and started searching for this person frequently, people could tell that something was amiss.
The appearance of any Transcended Berserker would cause a commotion in Han Mountain City. Besides the three tribes, there were originally only five Transcended Berserkers in Han Mountain City. Besides Xuan Lun and Nan Tian, there was also Ke Jiu Si from Lake of Colors Tribe.
As for the other two, they did not join any tribe. Their goal in coming to Han Mountain City was clear – they wanted to join Freezing Sky Clan.
These five people were like the sun at noon in Han Mountain City. Any one of them who joined a tribe could become the chief guest.
Now that the sixth Transcended Berserker had appeared, the discussions about Mo Su's name in Han Mountain City increased. The reason for this was largely due to the fact that this person had yet to show up.
It was as if the mystery surrounding Mo Su had also increased due to his absence. The people only knew that Mo Su wore a black robe, and the most obvious sign of it was the black mask he wore.
No one knew what his face looked like under the mask.
In fact, Nantian had once said something by chance during this month.
"I can't compare to Mo Su, and neither can Xuan Lun. All the Transcended Berserkers in Han Mountain City can't compare to him!" Forget about the meaning behind his words, once he said them, due to Xuan Lun's silent acknowledgment and Ke Jiu Si's nod, it caused a commotion in Han Mountain City.
The mysterious sixth Transcended Berserker in Han Mountain City was the source of the most discussion in Han Mountain City, besides Freezing Sky Clan's recruitment of disciples.
Perhaps it was because of this discussion that was obviously incited by someone else, but almost all the people in Han Mountain City were paying attention to everyone around them. They were instinctively searching for this mysterious Mo Su.
"I've already pushed this person to the top of the wave as per your request, even if I don't know what your intentions are." Han Fei Zi sat quietly in the chamber on the mountain belonging to Lake of Colors Tribe. There was a gentle looking middle-aged man sitting before her. The man was dressed in green robes. He looked at Han Fei Zi and spoke with a light smile.
"Thank you, senior Jiu Si," Han Fei Zi said calmly.
"It's fine. I'm curious. Is this person really so capable? You're not the only one looking for him. Even Tranquil East Tribe is cooperating and stirring up a storm to search for him.
"Fortunately, Puqiang Tribe has already shut themselves up after sending away their guests. They have no contact with the outside world, or else if they joined in as well, I'd be even more surprised by this Mo Su." The middle-aged man smiled faintly.
Han Fei Zi remained silent. She did not speak. After a long while, the middle-aged man let out a chuckle and left.
A long while after he left, a strange glint appeared in Han Fei Zi's eyes and she mumbled, "Mo Su, I don't believe that you're dead. You still owe me a promise!"
Tranquil East Tribe was also searching for Su Ming. Under the insistence of the tribe leader of Tranquil East Tribe and his sister, Han Cang Zi, the entire Tranquil East Tribe was mobilized to search for him on a large scale. That included the place where Su Ming had disappeared, which was once the hidden grounds of Han Mountain.
Yet even after a month had passed, no one had found Su Ming. Mo Su's name gradually became more and more mysterious in Han Mountain City.
At that moment, people could often be seen moving about in the valleys in the canyons beneath Han Mountain City. There was a valley on the land, and during the past month, quite a number of people had passed by it to explore it. However, no one knew that there was a strange mountain cave in the valley.
No one could discover the mountain cave.
At that moment, mumbling sounds echoed in the mountain cave.
"Who am I..?"
Su Ming sat cross-legged in the cave with his eyes wide open. His eyes were bloodshot, and there was confusion and emptiness in them. He forgot about the flow of time, forgot where he was, and kept thinking about this unanswered question.
The mountain cave was not dark. During the past month, the cave was gradually filled with a red light. That red light came from Su Ming's body. There were a large number of blood veins flashing and increasing densely on his body.
As the Berserker Bone in his body melted and the vast amount of Qi absorbed and circulated in his body, Su Ming's blood veins had already reached 926!
His blood veins were still increasing, but Su Ming did not notice it. His entire mind was immersed in a deep thought. This was the first time in his memories that he was thinking about Destiny and … thinking about who he was in this strange state.
During the past month, he had been muddle-headed, as if he had lost himself. As he was deep in thought, his presence changed. The change was very faint and difficult to find, but it was real. It was just like the epiphany and metamorphosis he had experienced when he walked down the red path.
It was rare for people to think about who they were. They would usually say things like "I am who I am". Yet these words were said without any thought. It was a false affirmation that even the person himself did not know about.
"If I am who I am, then who am I..?" Su Ming mumbled. He could not understand. He wanted to know the answer.
The answer was vague, and perhaps no one would tell him what it was. At that moment, Su Ming felt as if he was the only one who had struggled to open his eyes when everyone else had their eyes closed. It was as if he was struggling to climb out of a deep pit, and when he was about to fall back down at any moment, he lifted his head and looked at the world beyond the pit with all his might.
He did not know what he saw. He only struggled to see it clearly. In his muddled state, he remembered a sentence left behind by someone in the beast skin book the elder had given him. It was also the sentence he did not understand the most.
"The world I see … You … cannot see it."
