There were still tears at the corners of her eyes that had yet to disappear. She did not know who she was crying for … However, under the moonlight, she thought of many things. She thought of the things that had happened when she was young, and everything that had happened after she grew up. She met Si Ma Xin, she met Su Ming …
She did not know how much time had passed. She continued looking at the moon until she wiped away her tears. At that moment, a sigh came from behind her.
When she heard that sigh, a shudder ran through her body. She turned around and saw a middle-aged man with an awe-inspiring face. The man was incredibly tall, and he stood there like a mountain. He wore a long gray robe, and there was love in his eyes.
"Father …" More tears fell from Bai Su's eyes. She stood up and hugged the middle-aged man.
"Ever since you grew up, it's been a long time since you hugged me like you did when you were young …" the middle-aged man said gently and patted Bai Su's back gently.
Bai Su originally wanted to stop crying, but when she heard those words, she could not help but start crying loudly.
"Alright, it's all over now. Come home with me. You've reached the age where you should train …" the middle-aged man said softly.
"You're still too young to understand the love in this world." The man sighed softly and swept his gaze towards the ninth summit. He frowned.
"It has nothing to do with anyone else. It's my own fault. I don't know what to do either. I don't know …" Bai Su said softly and lifted her head from her father's bosom to wipe away her tears.
"Then don't think about it. I've already sent Si Ma Xin to Freezing Sky Cave. Whether he lives or dies will depend on his luck. I don't like that person." The middle-aged man lifted his hand and wiped away the remaining tears from Bai Su's eyes.
"I've also suppressed the injuries caused by the failure of the Berserker Seed. If he doesn't walk out of Freezing Sky Cave, then so be it. But if he does, then you'll have another servant. It's not a bad choice." The middle-aged man looked at Bai Su lovingly and a smile appeared on his face.
"But …" Bai Su hesitated for a moment.
"I hate him a little …" Bai Su said softly.
"I've already punished him." The middle-aged man ruffled Bai Su's hair and took a step forward with her. Gradually, they disappeared. Before Bai Su disappeared, she turned her head back and cast a glance at the ninth summit. There was a complicated look in her eyes. There was regret, but also blessings …
"If only I could do everything again …" Bai Su mumbled and averted her gaze in anguish. Then, she disappeared into the darkness beyond the seventh summit with her father.
At this moment, in a place where the moonlight couldn't reach, under the cold ground, in the endless layers of ice that stretched for an unknown depth, there was a world that was like a labyrinth.
There was no light here, an expanse of coldness. However, there was a strange wind. This wind shouldn't be able to appear here, but it did indeed exist, whistling through this world.
There was a person of someone of of of of of of a of of a. and he was to to to it of the person.
"Freezing Sky Cave … Freezing Sky Cave …" he mumbled weakly. After a long while, there was a ripping sound, and the trembling person lifted his right hand. No one knew what he did, but a spark immediately appeared on his face.
It was a ball of fire, a ball of fire burning on a rock the size of a baby's fist.
As the flames burned, there were flashes of light in this pitch-black world. The light from the flames shone on this person's face, and it was a ghastly sight!
It was a rotting face that was riddled with holes. His face had already been destroyed. Only the light in his eyes was vaguely familiar.
His entire body was covered in frost, and the burning stone in front of him slowly shrank as the flames continued to emit heat. When it completely disappeared, it meant that there was no other way to get warm in this place.
At that time, cultivation would not be of much use in the cold wind …
"Su Ming … Su Ming!" The ugly figure gritted his teeth, and as he trembled, he let out a voice filled with hatred that was carved into his bones.
He was Su Ma Xin.
Just what exactly had happened to him was something that only he and Bai Su's father knew. However, from the looks of it, this was a path that he had no choice but to take …
Moonlight continued shining on the ground. There was also a woman sitting cross-legged outside her cave abode on the third summit. She was not afraid of the cold. As she breathed, cold air would come crashing into her face from all directions. There was an old man sitting beside the woman.
"You've already gathered enough cold air and caused the power of your Qi to change. You could have already Transcended, why do you still want to gather more..?" the old man asked languidly.
"Master, if I Transcend, I can't have less than 990 souls!" The woman opened her eyes, and there was a clear glint in them. She was Han Fei Zi!
"Do you have to compare yourself to him?" The old man frowned.
"He's a Divine General. I want to become a Divine General as well!" Han Fei Zi nodded her head resolutely.
"But if you insist on doing this, you won't be able to make it to Sky Mist Shaman Hunt." The old man cast his disciple a glance.
"Even if I can't make it to the start, I can still go when the battle starts." As Han Fei Zi spoke, she circulated all the Qi in her body and blood veins appeared on her body. They shone through her robes, and at the same time they were blood red, they also exuded a shocking cold air.
"981 souls … I can still persevere!" Han Fei Zi took a deep breath and closed her eyes, continuing to immerse herself in absorbing the cold air to stimulate her blood. Her expression was calm, but only she and the old man beside her knew just how much pain she was going to endure as she absorbed the cold air.
Yet that pain could not be seen on her face. It was as if she was about to … turn into a block of ice!
The moonlight gradually faded away. When the horizon in the distance lit up slightly and a new day arrived, Su Ming opened his eyes. He stabilized his body, which had been drained due to him helping He Feng the night before, and once he was back to normal, he got up and returned to his cave abode.
Days passed by. Su Ming rarely went out of his cave abode, only occasionally going to search for his second senior brother at night. Only his second senior brother had the aura of death needed to create Spirit Plunder in the ninth summit.
With a sufficient amount of aura of death, Su Ming left the ninth summit half a month later when there was less than a month left until Sky Mist Shaman Hunt. He did not bring Zi Che or the Fire Ape with him. He left alone, accompanied by his shadow under the moon.
Three days later, a thick layer of clouds appeared on an ice mountain far away from Freezing Sky Clan. Thunder rumbled in the sky and bolts of lightning descended, turning the mountain range into a lake of lightning.
The lightning lasted for several hours before it gradually disappeared. When the people from the nearby tribes came to investigate, they found nothing.
Three days later, Su Ming returned to Freezing Sky Clan. Lightning would occasionally swim about his body, and when he stepped on the ice mountain, crackling sounds would ring out. His Origin Enchanted Vessel had improved in his body, and he had gained a lot of understanding towards controlling lightning.
When he returned to his cave abode, Su Ming brought out the Spirit Plunder he had created. There were four pills in total, and they floated before him, shining with a profound light that could absorb gazes.
There were only twenty days left until Sky Mist Shaman Hunt …
Within Freezing Sky Clan, the nine continents floating in midair gradually changed. The distance between them shrank, and their movements could be seen every hour.
This strange phenomenon attracted quite a number of people's attention, but once those who went through Sky Mist Shaman Hunt saw it, most of them knew that war was about to arrive!
The oppressive atmosphere that filled Freezing Sky Clan due to the war reached its peak at that moment. Because Heaven Gate's movement meant that one of Freezing Sky Clan's greatest treasures – Frozen Sky had appeared!
Frozen Sky was the greatest treasure the disciples of Freezing Sky Clan were most familiar with, because every single time Sky Mist Battle was held, this treasure would appear. It represented Freezing Sky Clan!
Countless Shamans had died under its hands. Every single time it appeared, the entire ice mountain in Freezing Sky Clan would turn red. That was not because it had just been dyed red, but because it was illuminated red by the light!
"A corner of it will appear fifteen days before the battle, and its complete outline will appear five days before the battle. On the second day before the battle, it will descend from the illusionary seal …
"During the Sky Mist Battle that happens once every ten years, only its projection will appear, not its true form …
"It will only truly appear during the great battle that happens once every hundred years … With it, the participants of Freezing Sky Clan will have the highest chance of survival. They will be able to go through the trials of life and death in the process of growing up …
"There are many rumors about its origins, but the one that is accepted the most is that it was created when Freezing Sky Clan was built. As one of the three greatest treasures in Freezing Sky Clan, its main use … is to kill!
"Among the three greatest treasures, it's the treasure that's in charge of killing!
"It changes constantly. From what I can see, the projection that appears once every ten years is different. In fact, the true form that appears once every hundred years is also different … It's as if its true form is ever-changing …"
Su Ming lifted his head and looked at the nine continents moving slowly in the sky. Zi Che's sincere voice traveled into his ears.
Zi Che looked at the sky and mumbled, "All the tournament participants will follow it … to Sky Mist City … Uncle master, the battle is about to begin … Even though it has been a very long time since the Shamans managed to break through Sky Mist Barrier, but the great battle that happens once every hundred years … there is still a possibility that something like that will happen."
"I can imagine that there must be an endless amount of ferocious beasts in the sky of the land of the Shamans right now, along with those powerful sacred beasts …
"The Shamans are also preparing … It's like an ancient promise …" Zi Che closed his eyes.
At that moment, Su Ming and Zi Che were not the only ones looking at the sky. Almost all the people in Freezing Sky Clan, even the Heaven Gate disciples who lived high above Heaven Gate, were also looking at the sky.
Yet at that moment, at the top of the ninth summit, Tian Xie Zi, who had his hands pressed against the ground and was counting in the morning, shuddered and lifted his head swiftly. In an instant, an incredibly stern expression appeared on his face as he stared at the sky in the distance.
There was a shooting star that was blue and red intersecting with each other in the sky, and it was charging towards them at an unbelievable speed. That shooting star was as big as a small hill. The blue light symbolized protection, and the red light symbolized slaughter!
This was the shooting star from Sky Mist City!
It was not just one, but … nine!
Tian Xie Zi's expression changed drastically, something that had never happened before, when he saw the nine shooting stars! He was not the only one. At that moment, dozens of people flew out from Heaven Gate and charged towards the nine shooting stars.
"Five shooting stars mean a great disaster … seven means that the Shamans are in trouble … eight means that the Berserkers of the Land of South Morning will be in danger of being wiped out … nine … nine means …" On the seventh summit, Tian Lan Meng's face was stark pale. The jade bottle in her hand fell to the ground, as if she could not hold it steadily …
