Yan Luan, the Elder of Tranquil East, the five powerful Transcended Berserkers of Han Mountain City, and the other people from the three tribes were among these long arcs. Han Cang Zi and Han Fei Zi were also among them. However, this search was bound to come to nothing.
Unless Su Ming left the mountain cave on his own, there was no way they would be able to find the other half of the four and a half layers Han Kong had created. Not even Freezing Sky Clan's left preceptor Zhou had managed to discover it.
After searching for a few days, these people left in silence. They did not find any clues. In their minds, the mysterious Berserker who had attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm had already left.
During the month that followed, the identity of the mysterious person who had attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm gradually became the center of discussion in Han Mountain City. All sorts of guesses rose and fell, and some of them were so ridiculous that they found it hard to believe. Just like the mysterious Mo Su, he was remembered by the people in Han Mountain City.
Gradually, he became the center of discussion. Due to his mysteriousness, his reputation surpassed that of the original five Transcended Berserkers of Han Mountain City. He was like the sun at noon.
There were also people who wondered whether Mo Su and the mysterious Berserker who had attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm were the same person, but it was just a thought. As for the leaders of the three tribes and the five powerful Transcended Berserkers of Han Mountain City, they did not think so. Some of them had come into contact with Su Ming before, and when they compared them to them, they got rid of the thought that would easily make people connect the two.
Two months had passed since the deity statue of Transcendence appeared in the sky. Since there were no other changes in the hidden grounds of Han Mountain, some of the more daring people gradually appeared in the place again to search for the serendipity that might appear and the herbs that no one else had discovered.
However, there were not many people like this. Still, no matter what, there were people appearing once again in the canyons of Han Mountain that had been silent for two months.
Qiao Da was a daring person. His hair may have turned white, but he was still very interested in searching for treasures. He had come to the hidden grounds of the plains of Han Mountain several times. Now, while there were not many people around, he came again.
This time, he was not alone. He brought a teenager with him. The teenager was a little dazed, but he obeyed Qiao Da's words. The two of them charged through the valleys in this place, occasionally stopping to carefully search for secrets that might not have been discovered by others.
"Uncle, there's nothing here."
"Uncle, there's nothing here either."
"Uncle, there's still nothing here." Every time the two of them searched a valley, the dazed young man would mutter this sentence.
"Uncle, this place …" At the entrance of a valley, the youth was just about to speak when Qiao Da, who had not found anything for several days, turned around and reprimanded him angrily.
"What, what, what do you know? Shut up!"
"Uncle, this …" The young man scratched his head, but he was interrupted again just as he was about to speak.
"Don't say anymore … If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have brought you here. If there were treasures everywhere, would we even have the chance to come here? "This is called exploration. Exploration, do you understand? Child, remember this, what we are searching for is not treasure, but to experience the process!" Qiao Da said sternly.
The youth's eyes widened. His dazed expression made Qiao Da feel as if he was talking to himself. He could not help but rub the space between his brows.
"Your attitude isn't right. Let Uncle tell you, treasure hunting is an interesting thing. Don't always think about the treasure. The process is very important. Do you think Uncle came here to look for treasure? I'm telling you, I'm doing this to enjoy the process! "Qiao Da decided to remind this junior of his.
"Do you understand now?"
"… Uncle, this place …" The youth blinked, but the moment he opened his mouth, Qiao Da immediately smiled bitterly. He knew what the youth was going to say next. He shook his head and ignored him, then walked forward.
"Uncle, I understand now. What we want is the process." When he saw that Qiao Da was ignoring him, the youth seemed to have understood something. He quickly ran to follow behind Qiao Da while counting on his fingers and muttering in a low voice.
"Even if I clearly saw a treasure just now, Uncle, you won't bother to find it. Hmm, I understand now. What we want is the process …" The youth was still muttering.
"Yes, that's right. Even if you saw a treasure, I would … What … What did you say just now? Treasure? You saw a treasure? "Qiao Da stroked his beard and nodded. As he walked, he suddenly stopped and turned his head around. His eyes widened.
With a stunned expression, the youth pointed at the valley they had just left.
"It's there. I was about to tell you just now. There's a place over there that shines."
The moment he finished speaking, Qiao Da had already charged into the valley at an extremely fast speed with a whoosh. The youth scratched his head, feeling rather puzzled. His uncle was clearly disdainful of treasures, so why was he not enjoying the process now? He felt that this question was very profound and he could not understand it, but he still quickly ran over. The moment he entered the valley, he saw Qiao Da searching around.
"Where is it? Where's the place that shines?"
"It's this place. I saw it shining just now." The youth took a few quick steps forward and pointed at a spot on the wall of the valley, but when he pointed, the youth's finger actually penetrated through the wall.
This scene immediately made Qiao Da's expression reveal wild joy and excitement. He quickly looked around, and once he was sure that there was no one around, he charged towards the youth. After observing the wall for a moment, he raised his hand and placed it on the wall, penetrating it as well.
"Haha, I, Qiao Da, have finally found a secret place!" Qiao Da grabbed the dazed youth excitedly and charged towards the wall, directly passing through it.
"Cloud Leaf Grass! There's so much Cloud Leaf Grass! Right now, one Cloud Leaf Grass can be sold for a hundred stone coins! I'm rich! I'm rich!" The moment Qiao Da entered, his eyes shone and he stared straight at the place where medicinal herbs were grown not too far away from him. He rubbed his hands and was beyond excited.
"Uncle, this place …" The youth's dazed voice rang out.
"I know, I know. There are medicinal herbs here, and these medicinal herbs are treasures." Qiao Da took a few quick steps forward and arrived at the place where the medicinal herbs were grown. He squatted down and quickly picked them up one by one, his face filled with joy.
"Uncle, this place …" The youth's voice trembled slightly.
"I know. You're going to ask me why I don't enjoy the process, right? Let me tell you, the process is important, but the treasures are even more important. Mm, you must remember this!" Qiao Da was no longer impatient in his joy. As he explained, he quickly picked up a large amount of medicinal herbs.
"Uncle, this place …" The youth's voice trembled even more, and there was even a hint of fear in it. It was a pity that Qiao Da's attention was completely drawn to the medicinal herbs at that moment, and he did not notice it at all.
"Eight stalks, ten stalks, thirteen stalks … I'm rich, I'm really rich this time. Fourteen stalks, fifteen stalks … Aiya, what are you trying to say? Didn't I teach you already?" Qiao Da licked his lips and quickly harvested.
"He wants to say that there's someone here." A cold voice suddenly reverberated in the place. That voice appeared too suddenly, causing Qiao Da's hand, which was about to grab the sixteenth medicinal herb, to pause. He whipped his head around and his expression was one of shock.
He saw a person standing next to the youth. That person was dressed in black and had a delicate face. There was a scar under his eyes, and his gaze was cold as he stared at Qiao Da.
"Uncle, he's right. What I want to say is that there's someone here …" The youth let out a deep breath, and nervousness appeared on his face.
Qiao Da's heart pounded against his chest, and a murderous intent rose in his heart. The value of the medicinal herbs in this place was too great, and he would definitely have to fight for them. However, the youth was right beside the youth, and this made Qiao Da hesitate. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly noticed that the youth looking at him had a cold gaze that seemed to have gained physical form. It made Qiao Da shudder, and he felt as if he was submerged in ice water at that moment. His entire body turned pale.
"Se … Senior … Senior, please spare me!" Qiao Da trembled and knelt down on the ground, quickly begging for mercy. He may not know the level of cultivation of the person before him, but if that person could make him feel as if he had sunk into ice with just one gaze, it was clear that this was not something that a Berserker in the Blood Solidification Realm could do. It was especially so when he realized that his blood veins could not even appear before this person. This made him shocked and terrified.
That young man was Su Ming!
During the past two months, Su Ming had gradually suppressed his blood veins. Today, when he came out of isolation, he wanted to see how he could leave the hidden grounds of Han Mountain. However, the moment he walked out of the half-dimensional space, he appeared in the mountain cave. He was just about to leave when he noticed an old man and a young man barging in.
The old man did not even see him. He charged towards the Cloud Leaf Grass that Su Ming did not even want. Only the youth stood there and stared at him blankly.
Su Ming stared at the old man and a pensive look appeared in his eyes.
'Could it be that something changed in this place after Han Kong died? This old man is only around the seventh level of the Blood Solidification Realm, but he brought a child here …'
Qiao Da's heart raced against his chest. He was incredibly nervous. Under Su Ming's gaze, a large amount of sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Tell me about the major events that happened in Han Mountain City over the past few years. If I'm satisfied, then all the herbs in this place will belong to you," Su Ming said slowly.
Qiao Da did not dare wipe off the sweat on his forehead, neither did he dare guess why Su Ming would ask such a question. Once he heard Su Ming's words, he quickly spoke respectfully and told Su Ming almost everything he knew over the past few years. When he told him about how the place was no longer sealed off a few months ago and that people could come and go as they pleased, Su Ming's expression remained calm. There was not a hint of change in his expression.
"... Mo Su's mysteriousness has always been a mystery … The Berserker who attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm is even more mysterious …" Qiao Da's voice trembled as he told Su Ming everything he knew about Mo Su and the Berserker who attained completion in the Blood Solidification Realm in Han Mountain City, as well as the strange phenomenon in the sky. Yet as he spoke, his body trembled even more. He looked at Su Ming and a guess formed in his head.
Su Ming stood there in silence for a while before his gaze fell on the boy by his side.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Qiao Hong …" The boy still had a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"I'll give you the herbs in this place." Once Su Ming finished speaking, he cast a glance at the boy before he turned around and disappeared with one step.
Only then did Qiao Da dare wipe off the sweat on his forehead. With a face filled with lingering fear, he pointed at Qiao Hong and rebuked him.
"You brat, why didn't you tell me that there was someone here?!"
"I already said it … but you never let me finish …" There was a wronged look on the boy's face.
"You … You … You're making me so angry. Remember, I'm telling you, next time, when you speak, you have to say everything in one go. No matter how others interrupt you, you have to say everything in one go. You can't stop!" Qiao Da wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead once again. He looked at the herbs on the ground and joy appeared on his face.
"I'm rich! I'm really rich this time!"
"Alright, I'll remember, uncle. Don't worry, no matter how others interrupt me, I'll definitely say everything in one go. I won't stop, I'll say everything in one go …" the boy mumbled and panted for a long time after he finished speaking.
"I'm going to the hospital to take care of an old man after I publish this chapter. It's my father-in-law, he's unconscious due to cerebral infarction.
"I know it's double now and I'm planning to use it, but I can't keep up with the changes … Please forgive me. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
