Su Ming stared blankly at the beast skin map before him. The color of the map showed signs of time. The corners of the map had been damaged. He had no idea how long it had been there.
Between South Morning and the Alliance of the Western Region, there was a ravine that seemed impossible to cross. It was a dark line.
This black line did not only exist between the Land of South Morning and the Western Hemisphere. There was a similar black line between every two continents that were adjacent to each other.
"This map was drawn by someone based on his memories after the second God of Berserkers died … Before the second God of Berserkers, the land of Berserkers was a complete continent. It was incredibly big, and there were very few people who could walk through it."
Tian Xie Zi's ancient voice traveled forth languidly from behind Su Ming.
"After the second God of Berserkers died, the land of Berserkers was split up and turned into five continents with Great Yu as the center. The spot with the picture of the cauldron in the middle is where Great Yu Dynasty is located.
The reason why we used a cauldron to replace it is because this cauldron is the Berserker Tribe's tribal weapon! "Tian Xie Zi's voice was a little low.
"Great Wilderness Cauldron …"
The moment those three words tumbled out of Tian Xie Zi's mouth, Su Ming's body shuddered. His mind snapped out of his immersion in the beast skin map, and the only thing echoing in his ears were the words' Great Barren Cauldron '.
'Barren Cauldron …' Su Ming's heart trembled violently. Tian Xie Zi saw it and thought that it was because of Su Ming's shock when he heard about Great Yu. He did not know that at that moment, Su Ming's mind was filled with the black stone hanging around his neck, and all the things he saw when he entered the dimension in the stone.
'I need a Barren Cauldron to create medicinal pills … What is the connection between this Barren Cauldron and the Great Barren Cauldron that Tian Xie Zi mentioned..?' Confusion appeared on Su Ming's face.
"The black lines you see between the five continents are suspended blood. They are formed by the second God of Berserkers' resentment after he died. It is rumored that this resentment was used by the Immortals in the past, and they worked together with the Shamans to set up an incredibly cruel Rune. This Rune caused the five continents in the land of Berserkers to be unable to be whole …
It will be extremely difficult for them to pass through each other … "Tian Xie Zi's voice reverberated in the secret chamber, lingering for a long time.
"I don't know why you need this map, and I don't know where your destination is in these five continents … But, you're my disciple, so I must tell you … Work hard to improve your cultivation.
"Cultivation base is the foundation of everything. If you want to walk out of the Land of South Morning, forget about the other continents, just the world beyond Sky Mist Barrier alone is something you cannot cross.
First, get yourself out of the barrier, and then think of a way to go to the place you want to go … And all of this, you need a strong cultivation base to rely on!
If one's cultivation wasn't high enough, one shouldn't think about anything. Even thinking about it would be useless. Apart from adding to one's worries, it would only make one's heart restless … If one's heart was restless, one's soul would be in chaos, and one's appearance would be scattered, making it difficult for one to advance.
"Level up, increase your level of cultivation!" Tian Xie Zi said softly and lifted his right hand to pat Su Ming's shoulder.
"You're not the only one with a story … Your eldest senior brother also has his story, and it's the same for your second senior brother …" Tian Xie Zi paused for a moment, as if he was feeling slightly sentimental.
Su Ming remained silent for a moment before he looked at the beast skin map before him and asked softly, "What level of cultivation do I need to walk out of Sky Mist Barrier and the Land of South Morning?"
"If you haven't reached the Bone Sacrifice Realm, don't even think about walking out of Sky Mist Barrier! Even those in the Bone Sacrifice Realm have to be extremely careful outside the barrier. The slightest carelessness can lead to death.
"There's a blood feud between us Berserkers and the Shamans!
"If you can reach the Berserker Soul Realm, then you can go in and out of the barrier as you please, but you still have to be careful. As long as you don't run into the Great Shamans of the Shaman Tribe and don't go to some dangerous places, then you can still ensure that you don't die," Tian Xie Zi said slowly after a moment of silence.
"If that's the case, then as long as I reach the Berserker Soul Realm, then I'll have the right to walk out of the Land of South Morning," Su Ming mumbled.
"It's just the right. The Berserker Soul Realm is just the completion of the first great Realm for us Berserkers … There are definitely other Realms after the Berserker Soul Realm!
"It's a pity that no one knows what the higher Realms are and how to reach them …" Tian Xie Zi sighed softly.
"Why?" Su Ming lifted his head and looked at Tian Xie Zi.
"Because the fourth God of Berserkers hasn't appeared for a long, long time. Only when the fourth God of Berserkers appears will he be able to sense the third God of Berserkers' will and obtain the God of Berserkers' legacy. Only then can he sense the higher Realms and create the statue of the God of Berserkers after the Berserker Soul Realm. Only then can all the Berserkers who have reached the Berserker Soul Realm sense it."
Su Ming looked at Tian Xie Zi, and after a long while, he spoke unhurriedly, "On my way here, I ran into a man named Bai beside Sky Mist Barrier. He's a Divine General of Bone Sacrifice. He mentioned you before, saying that you once walked out of the Land of South Morning and went to the Great Yu Dynasty.
I wonder if this is true. "
Tian Xie Zi fell silent and a complicated look appeared on his face. He lifted his head and looked into the other direction of the chamber. That place was empty, and no one knew what he was looking at.
Gradually, nostalgia appeared in Tian Xie Zi's eyes.
"I don't know whether what I saw was Great Yu … Wait until you reach the Berserker Soul Realm and you're about to leave, then I'll tell you." Tian Xie Zi closed his eyes, and his voice became even more ancient.
"I know a person. He hasn't reached the Transcendence Realm and doesn't live in Great Yu. He lives in another continent, but he has left the continent many times. One of them … he should have gone to the Great Yu Dynasty …" Su Ming lowered his head as he spoke.
When Tian Xie Zi heard these words, his eyes flew open. A brilliant glint appeared briefly in his eyes before it immediately disappeared.
The instant that glint shone in his eyes, a great pressure descended on them. That pressure disappeared too quickly, to the point that it was easy for people to think that it was just a figment of their imagination.
However, Su Ming's heart trembled. During that instant just now, he could clearly feel his Qi freezing up. In fact, the ninth summit had even shuddered slightly.
"He went to Great Yu from another continent before he reached the Transcendence Realm … This is impossible!" Tian Xie Zi said slowly.
"Impossible..? Perhaps." Su Ming closed his eyes, hiding the bewilderment in them.
The more he understood, the more he felt that there were too many mysteries in his memories in Dark Mountain. It was especially so when he saw Lei Chen and Bei Ling on the Chains of Han Mountain, who he could not tell whether they were real or fake, and when the elder appeared as if he wanted to tell him something. All of these things made him uncertain and confused about what he saw before his eyes.
'There's a veil covering Dark Mountain and everything that happened in the void in the crack … Perhaps when I have the power to lift that veil, I'll discover … a secret surrounding me,' Su Ming thought quietly. Only by thinking this way could he prevent himself from losing himself in his bewilderment and avoid the fear of his mind breaking down due to his doubts towards the future or the past.
"How can I increase my level of cultivation quickly?" Su Ming opened his eyes and looked at Tian Xie Zi beside him.
"Your senior brother asked me this question in the past. My answer was to clear my mind. He thought about it for a long time, and in the end, he decided to isolate himself for a long time." Tian Xie Zi looked at Su Ming profoundly. He paused for a moment before he continued speaking.
"Your second senior brother also asked me this question in the past. My answer was to clear my mind as well. His choice was different from your eldest senior brother's. He chose to plant flowers and plants.
"As for your third senior brother, he's an idiot. He didn't ask me this question, but he drank all day and spent his days in a drunken stupor to search for his heart.
"As for you, my answer is still the same. Clear my mind." Tian Xie Zi smiled faintly and lifted his right hand to point forward.
"The Berserker Vessels in the first layer of the chamber disappointed you, didn't you? You see them as broken and useless items. It's just like the wine you drank from the gourd. To you, it's water, but to me, it's wine.
"It's the same logic. To me, the things in the first layer of the chamber are the things I've collected throughout my life. To me, they're the most precious enchanted Vessels.
"There's also all the skills and divine abilities of Freezing Sky Clan in the second layer of the chamber. They must have disappointed you. You couldn't see what was inside." There was a ghost of a smile on Tian Xie Zi's lips as he looked at Su Ming.
Su Ming remained silent. He did not speak.
"You still don't truly understand what we Berserkers practice. The word 'Creation' means that we will not be bound by anything. We will rely on ourselves to create everything.
"Those so-called skills and divine abilities were all created by our predecessors. There are 100,000 Berserkers in Freezing Sky Clan, and there are as many powerful Berserkers as there are clouds in the sky. But are these people practicing Creation?
"Do they understand the meaning of Creation?
"Tian Xie Zi's disciple will not have any skills or divine abilities. What you will have is the serendipity of the world that you came to understand after you found a way to clear your mind!" A strange light seemed to appear on Tian Xie Zi's face. Under that light, he looked as if he was filled with determination.
However, to Su Ming, that determination seemed to be bordering on madness.
"Serendipity … Serendipity … Everyone in the world desires these two words. They are all searching for them, but what is true serendipity? This is a question I'm asking you. Think about it, understand it. Once you find the answer, tell me. " Tian Xie Zi's enigmatic look returned to him. He stroked his beard and spoke languidly, as if he was a wise elder.
"Can I take this map with me?" Su Ming stood up quietly and folded up the beast skin scroll before him carefully.
"As my disciple, you can take one item from each layer." Tian Xie Zi smiled faintly.
Su Ming put the beast skin scroll into his bosom and looked at Tian Xie Zi. He took a deep breath and wrapped his fist in his palm to bow towards him.
"Greetings, Master. I am your disciple."
Tian Xie Zi laughed heartily and waved his arm. Immediately, a gust of wind blew past and swept Su Ming out of the cave abode.
"Your senior brothers are eccentric. You should get in touch with them more and search for a way to clear your mind. I believe you'll be able to find it."
The recommendation tickets were terrible. Could it be that the recommendation tickets for Devil Seekers could only be like this?! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
