"Master, you're finally awake!" There was a hint of bitterness in He Feng's voice. He did not know how to express it. He had been woken up by the threat of death and immediately noticed that there was something wrong with Su Ming. It was as if he had lost his soul. His body continued falling, and before long, he would fall and be crushed to pieces.
Su Ming had lost his soul, so it was only natural that he did not know fear. However, He Feng was clear-headed. He watched as Su Ming's body fell and watched as he was about to die with Su Ming. He could not do anything about it. He could not control Su Ming's body, and he did not even dare leave it. The power that suppressed his Qi from the outside world would also deal devastating damage to him.
He was truly afraid. The torment of being unable to do anything about death drove him mad. He called out to Su Ming anxiously, and in his despair, he even started cursing him without hiding anything.
Yet when he saw Su Ming waking up, He Feng was suddenly afraid. He was no longer afraid of death, but of the consequences of Su Ming hearing his words just now.
"Mas … Master? What did you hear just now? I was just worried about your safety … "He Feng quickly explained himself carefully, afraid that Su Ming would cause trouble for him.
Su Ming ignored He Feng. His body was falling rapidly, and all sorts of thoughts flashed through his head. Eventually, a dark glint appeared in his eyes, and immediately, the souls of the Wings of the Moon spread out from his body. Yet the moment they appeared, a huge pressure immediately came crashing down on Su Ming, imprisoning the souls of the Wings of the Moon within his body. They could not leave.
'I can't circulate my Qi, and the souls of the Wings of the Moon can't leave my body either … This is the only way!' Su Ming activated the Branding Art in his head. A green light flashed at the center of his brows, and the small virescent sword charged out.
The small sword was slightly uncomfortable with the pressure in the place. It swayed, as if it could not withstand the pressure, but once Su Ming gathered all his strength on it with the Branding Art, the sword immediately steadied itself. In a flash, it charged towards the bottom of Su Ming's feet and dragged him upwards, causing him to step on it.
With that one step, the force of Su Ming's fall seemed to be compressed. Besides the small sword, the rest of the force was gathered in his body. Banging sounds reverberated in the air. Su Ming's face immediately turned pale and he coughed out a mouthful of blood. The small sword also sank several hundreds of feet before gradually coming to a stop.
Su Ming's breathing quickened as he stood on the small sword. He lifted his head abruptly and looked at the dark sky above him. He saw lightning slicing through the sky, and as the light disappeared, he saw the faintly discernible swaying Iron Chain.
"The Chain isn't over yet!" Su Ming mumbled. He was wearing a black robe. He covered his head with the robe that had been blown away by the wind when he fell. The long robe on his feet was loose enough to cover the small virescent sword.
With a single thought, the small virescent sword slowly rose into the air and dragged Su Ming upwards from the depths of the canyon.
He, Su Ming, was back!
At that moment, time trickled by in Han Mountain City. No one knew how much time had passed. Thunder would occasionally rumble in the sky and lightning would slice through the sky. As it illuminated the area, it also illuminated the Chain where the people's gazes met. Similarly, the faces of the people standing in Han Mountain City who were waiting could also be seen clearly.
No one showed any signs of impatience. In truth, all of them knew clearly in their hearts that there was only one explanation for the strange change in the Chains of Han Mountain not sinking.
The challenge of the Chains of Han Mountain had not ended. The challenger had not failed!
However, even though they knew it clearly, the things that happened on that day still made them hesitate.
"Is he … really not dead?"
"It's been a long time. If he's not dead, why hasn't he appeared?"
"Puqiang Tribe should have already sent people down to search for his corpse. I wonder what the results are …"
The whispers of discussion broke the silence. Too much time had passed. Even if they knew the reason why the stone pillars did not sink, their hesitation still grew stronger as time passed.
On Tranquil East Mountain, the Elder of Tranquil East Tribe had a grave expression on his face. He stood at the edge of the mountain and watched intently. Behind him, Fang Shen and Han Cang Zi, who was not too far away, did the same.
"This has never happened … Could it be that he's really not dead?"
Time trickled by, and soon, an hour went by. This hour would usually pass by very quickly for the people, but now, to the people, this hour felt as if it had been stretched out several times longer.
On Puqiang Mountain, the thin Elder took a deep breath. The grave expression on his face gradually became gentler.
"It's been more than an hour. Perhaps something happened to the Chains of Han Mountain, and not that person … not dead … What do you think?" The Elder of Puqiang Tribe's final words were directed towards the man who looked like a mountain of flesh by his side.
The man hesitated for a moment. He looked at the sky, then at the canyons and said unhurriedly, "It's indeed been a little long. There's a high possibility that this person is already dead … The tribe members we sent down to investigate should also …"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly shuddered and stared straight into the canyons. He … saw it!
He was not the only one. The Elder of Puqiang Tribe's expression also changed drastically. There seemed to be a raging storm contained within his thin body, as if it was about to erupt. He stared into the canyons. He saw it!
Besides the two of them, the other people on Puqiang Mountain were also shocked. When they looked towards the canyons, their expressions changed drastically because of what they saw!
They saw it!
Lightning flashed in the sky at that moment. The instant the light from the lightning illuminated the sky and earth, a person in black robes rose slowly from the canyons of Puqiang Mountain!
Cries of surprise rose from Han Mountain!
On Tranquil East Mountain, the Elder of Tranquil East took a deep breath. A fierce glint appeared in his eyes, and with a look of disbelief, he looked at the canyons. He, too, saw it!
The tribe leader of Tranquil East, Fang Shen, and Han Cang Zi had different expressions on their faces. Fang Shen's face was filled with shock, while Han Cang Zi let out a huge sigh of relief. They, too, saw it!
On Lake of Colors Mountain, the old woman instinctively clenched and unclenched her right hand, then clenched it again. She repeated this several times, but her expression remained calm, as if even if she saw the shocking sight in the canyons, she would not be too affected.
When Yan Luan saw the sight in the canyons, she was momentarily stunned. A bright light appeared in her eyes. She was just about to say something when she suddenly noticed the old woman's right hand, and a thought appeared in her heart.
Everyone said that Yan Luan's power surpassed that of the Elder. This was true, but only she knew just how powerful the Elder of Lake of Colors Mountain was. She also knew that the Elder had a habit of clenching and unclenching her right hand many times like this when she was hesitating.
"Why is the Elder hesitating?" Yan Luan could not understand it. What was happening right now had nothing to do with Lake of Colors Tribe. What was it that would make the Elder hesitate?
Besides the people from the three tribes, all the people in Han Mountain City also saw the sight in the canyons. Once they saw it, a shocking uproar broke out among the crowd. The waves of sound rose and fell, as if they could fight against the thunder in the sky.
"He really didn't die!"
"It's him! He came out!"
"Just what level of cultivation does he have? He … He actually came out from the canyons!"
"No one has ever survived after falling for so long. This person … This person really didn't die, and he even came out from the canyons!"
Nan Tian sucked in a deep breath. For the first time, respect appeared in his eyes. He looked at the canyons and mumbled.
Leng Ying and Ke Jiu Si's expressions also changed when they saw the canyons. Just like Nan Tian, respect rose in their hearts. They should respect powerful Berserkers, especially those who could walk out from the canyons.
Han Fei Zi stood on the white cloud in midair. A faint smile appeared on her face, covered by the veil. Her eyes were much brighter than before.
Only Xuan Lun's face was as dark as ice. He clenched his fists and lowered his head, hiding away the jealousy and killing intent in his eyes!
Su Ming slowly rose from the canyons, stepping on the small virescent sword covered by his robes. He appeared in the sky and earth, right before all the people's eyes.
After experiencing all this, it could be said that he was the true center of attention. Everyone's hearts were stirred. Even those who had looked down on him previously had now disappeared.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he had crawled out from the depths of death. He had managed to walk out from the canyons. This matter was bound to spread through Han Mountain. It was bound to be remembered even after hundreds of years had passed. It was bound to be said that every single time someone challenged the Chains of Han Mountain in the future, the people who had been paying attention would talk about what happened on this day!
It was also bound to be said that Su Ming's challenge of the Chains of Han Mountain this time would be unprecedented. It would shake Han Mountain, and he would reach the level of shock he wanted!
As he floated upwards, when Su Ming stood on the same level as the seventh section of the Chain, an even louder cry and uproar broke out within Han Mountain City. All sorts of voices echoed in the air, and Su Ming could hear them.
"Will he continue to walk on?!"
"Just what does he look like? What's his name?!"
"He's bound to be chosen as a disciple by Freezing Sky Clan. Even if he doesn't continue, there's a high possibility that he'll be brought into Freezing Sky Clan!"
In the midst of the buzzing discussions, Su Ming stood beside the seventh section of the Chain. He did not look at Puqiang Mountain, which was connected to the Chain, but lifted his foot and stepped on the Chain.
The moment he stepped on the same Chain for the second time, the sounds of discussions within Han Mountain City reached their peak. The people from the three tribes also looked towards him nervously from their respective mountains.
The small virescent sword disappeared under Su Ming's feet the moment he took a step forward. Su Ming stood on the seventh section of the Chain and let out a deep breath against the mountain breeze.
"Let's continue with the Chains of Han Mountain …" Su Ming mumbled. He lifted his right foot swiftly and took a step forward on the Chain. As he moved, the six stone pillars behind him crumbled with a bang and turned into an endless amount of shattered stones that fell down.
Even at that moment, Su Ming did not forget what Puqiang Tribe had asked of him …
"Elder, please appear …" Su Ming walked forward. His footsteps were not quick. He did not want to leave so soon. "To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation. "
