"Challenge the Chains of Han Mountain!" Su Ming did not turn his head back. Instead, he placed his right hand on the ancient bell once again, and the nineteenth bell chime sounded!
As the bell rang, ripples reverberated and rocks rolled. The Alpine Back Black Turtle in the sky let out another sharp cry.
"Nineteen!! Just how much does he want to sound? Where is his limit?! "
"Does he still want to challenge the Chains of Han Mountain? If he gets injured in the process of sounding the bell, then challenging the Chains of Han Mountain will be the same as seeking death!"
"This person is arrogant. Look, Lake of Colors Tribe has already sent people over, but when he answered, he still sounded the nineteenth chime!"
The sounds of discussions stirred up like a violent gust of wind and echoed in the area. The old man from Lake of Colors Tribe cast Su Ming a deep look, then brought out a plate from his bosom and threw it at him.
"By the orders of the tribe leader, we acknowledge your right to challenge the Chains of Han Mountain. Lake of Colors Tribe awaits your arrival!"
When he saw Su Ming taking the plate, the old man turned around and turned into a long arc that charged towards Lake of Colors Mountain to give his report.
The silent people on the mountains of the three tribes could no longer remain silent. After Lake of Colors Tribe, a long arc also charged over from the mountains of Tranquil East Tribe. The person in the long arc was the Chief of War!
He came personally and charged towards Han Mountain. His appearance was immediately seen by the crowd around him.
"Chief of War of Tranquil East Tribe!"
"He actually came in person!"
"Of course he's coming. He's the one who rang the bell nineteen times!"
Tranquil East's Chief of War closed in, but he did not stand in midair. Instead, he descended and stood a hundred feet away from Su Ming. He looked at him, and his eyes sparkled. After a long while, he wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed towards Su Ming.
"By the orders of the Elder, we acknowledge your right to challenge the Chains of Han Mountain. Tranquil East Tribe awaits your arrival!" As he spoke, Tranquil East's Chief of War brought out the plate. Once he handed it over respectfully, he cast Su Ming a profound look, then turned around and left.
He recognized the person in front of him. It was Mo Su!
However, he didn't want to offend Mo Su, especially since he could sense that Mo Su's aura was shockingly similar to Si Ma Xin's. That gave him a guess, and he didn't want to offend Mo Su.
"Three tribes are only missing Puqiang!"
"Logically speaking, people from Puqiang Tribe should be here by now."
'It's a pity that once the people from Puqiang come, the mysterious challenger of the Chains of Han Mountain might stop ringing. We still won't be able to see the third beast on Han Mountain Bell.'
Su Ming stood beside the ancient bell and did not continue sounding it. He could feel the rebound from the ancient bell becoming stronger. The twentieth time was definitely not easy. Once he sounded it, the rebound would affect him.
In the blink of an eye, an incense stick's worth of time had passed. During this incense stick's worth of time, more and more people gathered in the surroundings. In the end, apart from those who were unable to enter the third level, everyone else was here.
Those gazes were trained on Su Ming and did not leave even after a long time had passed, as if they wanted to see through his bamboo hat and black robes and see just what he looked like and just who he was!
"He sounded 19 times. If he can clear the Chains of Han Mountain, then his name will definitely be like the sun at noon. It's not impossible for him to enter Freezing Sky Clan!"
"There is no need for that. He is already illustrious!"
"That's strange. Why hasn't anyone from Puqiang Tribe arrived yet?" The sounds of discussion buzzed. Many people's gazes occasionally landed on the mountain peak of Puqiang Tribe, which was shrouded in black mist.
Su Ming frowned slightly. He waited for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but Puqiang Tribe remained silent.
'I don't have much contact with Puqiang Tribe, so I don't really understand this tribe. But I can feel that this tribe is very mysterious …' Su Ming lifted his head and looked at Puqiang Tribe's mountain. The mist on the mountain was very thick and filled with the stench of death.
He waited for a while more, and gradually, the people around him also noticed that something was off. They looked towards Puqiang Mountain. Even the leaders of Lake of Colors Tribe and Tranquil East Tribe cast their gazes towards Puqiang Tribe.
'They're using the mountain to intimidate us!' A chilling glare appeared in Su Ming's eyes as he stared at Puqiang Mountain. He could vaguely guess Puqiang Tribe's intentions. They wanted to use this chance to show off their tribe's mysteriousness and might by refusing to give them the plate.
The more Puqiang Tribe remained silent, the more attention they would attract. They would not refuse to give Su Ming the plate, but they wanted to make him wait a little longer so that they could elevate their own status.
"Puqiang Tribe is going a little overboard," Yan Luan averted her gaze from Puqiang Mountain and said calmly from Lake of Colors Mountain.
The same words came out of Tranquil East Tribe's Elder's mouth.
At that moment, the black mist on Puqiang Tribe's mountain trembled and tumbled. A person walked out from within. That person was dressed in a black robe and had an arrogant look on his face as he charged towards Han Mountain City. When he was in midair above Han Mountain, he lowered his head and cast a glance at Su Ming, who was standing beside the ancient bell.
"The Elder is still in isolation. Please wait a little longer."
The moment he said those words, the crowd immediately fell silent and cast their gazes on Su Ming.
Su Ming did not speak. No one could see the dark expression on his face hidden under the bamboo hat and black robes, but they could feel that there was a chill gathering around Su Ming's body at that moment.
"Isolation, huh? Then I'll just wake him up." Su Ming's hoarse voice echoed in the air. This was the first time he spoke since he came to this place. The moment he spoke, Su Ming lifted his right hand and punched the ancient bell.
Dong!
The 20th chime!
The ancient bell trembled and started swinging backwards due to Su Ming's punch. The powerful sound surpassed all the previous bell chimes and reverberated in the air. When it spread in all directions, the 21st bell chime arrived with a force that shook the sky and earth!
Su Ming lifted his head swiftly and shock appeared in his eyes. The rebound crashed into his body and he staggered a few steps back. His bamboo hat shattered with a bang, but his black robes still covered his face, and no one could see it.
'How could this be..?' Su Ming's heart trembled.
The two bell chimes fused together and spread out above Han Mountain City like a roar. It turned into a ripple that swept through the air, and not only did it stop the rain, it also caused the Alpine Dark Turtle in the sky to tremble. A strange light appeared in its eyes as it let out a roar.
The direction of its roar … was Puqiang Mountain!
As he roared and the two chimes of the bell fused, the two sounds turned into one and appeared out of nowhere. It was as if some existence in the dark had come from a faraway place, and a voice that did not belong to this world rang out.
"Han …"
That voice sounded like a bell, but also like the Dark Turtle's roar. It sounded indistinct, but the moment it traveled out, a shocking roar came from within the black fog on Puqiang Mountain. The black fog that enveloped the entire mountain exploded due to that one sound, turning into an endless amount of black threads that tumbled backwards, revealing most of Puqiang Mountain that had always been hidden under the fog, a rare sight to behold!
This sudden change shocked the people around them. In the midst of their shock, they fell into dead silence. They did not know what had happened, did not know why the bell chime this time had such shocking power.
The power contained in the fused sound just now had broken through most of Puqiang Tribe's power to protect the mountain!
In the midst of the silence, the man in black from Puqiang Tribe in midair was dumbfounded. There was disbelief on his face, and there was even a hint of fear.
On Lake of Colors Mountain, Yan Luan widened her eyes. For the first time, she started trembling. Her expression kept changing and her breathing quickened as she stared at Han Mountain City.
'He … He also activated the power of Han Mountain Bell?!'
At the same time, the eyes of Han Fei Zi, who was also on the same mountain, sparkled. When she sensed that power, her heart trembled. Without any hesitation, she moved and a white cloud appeared under her feet, charging towards Han Mountain from Lake of Colors Mountain.
She wanted to see whether this person was the Mo Su she had been waiting for!
On the mountain of Tranquil East Tribe, the Elder of Tranquil East Tribe was originally calm, but at that moment, his pupils shrank and he stood up swiftly. He stared at Han Mountain and sucked in a sharp breath. A powerful light appeared in his eyes.
'I've always thought that he's very similar to Sir Si Ma. Sir Si Ma activated the power of Han Mountain and obtained a serendipity in the past. This Mo Su also did the same!
'Han Mountain Bell, Han Mountain Bell … You've existed in Han Mountain for countless years. Even Han Mountain's ancestor couldn't obtain your legacy and serendipity. Over the years, only Sir Si Ma obtained part of your legacy. Now, this Mo Su …'
On Tranquil East Mountain, Han Cang Zi clenched her fists. Excitement appeared in her beautiful eyes. She knew that she did not make the wrong choice this time!
The people on the mountain of Puqiang Tribe were also in a state of shock. An uproar broke out among the tribe members in the mountain. As the mountain protecting fog dissipated, the Elder of Puqiang Tribe could no longer remain calm. Shock appeared in the dull eyes of the skeleton-like old man dressed in purple robes.
'Give him the plate!'
Su Ming's heart raced against his chest. He stared at Han Mountain Bell, which was still swaying slightly before him, and took a deep breath. The instant his fist touched the bell, he could clearly feel some of the Qi in his body being sucked away in a bizarre manner by the bell.
He had only rung the bell once, but what reverberated in the air were two bell chimes!
He also did not expect that once the two seemingly normal bell chimes fused together, they would burst forth with a power so powerful that it could make the mountain protecting fog of Puqiang Tribe collapse!
This sort of power was definitely not something a normal Transcended Berserker could do. Just what sort of power would be needed to destroy the mountain protecting power of a middle-sized tribe …? Su Ming's heart raced.
'This Han Mountain Bell … Could it be … Could it be a priceless treasure?!'
At that moment, as Han Mountain City was in a state of shock due to the bell chimes, there was a seven-colored mountain located far away in the Land of South Morning. That mountain would always shine with a seven-colored light.
The seven-colored light replaced the color of the sky. There was a pavilion at the foot of the mountain.
A stone table in the pavilion was covered with black and white chess pieces. A man and a woman were sitting there, looking at the chessboard. The man was dressed in green robes. His face was as white as jade, his eyes were like stars, and he was extraordinarily handsome. There was also an indescribable presence about him that made him seem lonely, but also calm. There was a red line that was half a finger long at the center of his brows.
He held a white piece in his hand and was about to place it down when he suddenly frowned and lifted his head to look at the horizon in the distance.
"Big brother Si Ma, what's wrong?" The woman by his side had her chin propped up with her hands. When she lifted her head, she revealed a face that might not be so beautiful that it could cause the downfall of nations and cities, but was filled with wild beauty.
If Su Ming was here, the instant he saw this woman, he would definitely feel as if his soul had been struck by lightning and his spirit would be shaken. He would find it … unbelievable!
