When the second wave of Shamans charged towards them, many people did not expect that the hundred something Berserkers behind Su Ming would swiftly retreat under Zi Che and Yan Bo's lead.
Almost at the same time they chose to retreat, displeasure immediately appeared on Zhou De's face while he was in the southern warzone and he frowned.
As for Tian Lan You, disdain appeared in her aloof eyes at that moment. She was just about to avert her gaze and no longer look at them when suddenly, her pupils shrank.
Because she saw that once the hundred something Berserkers retreated, there was one person who remained standing there, standing between the Berserkers' retreat and the Shamans' advance. At that moment, that person was like a ravine between the heavens and earth, forcefully splitting the retreating army and the Shamans' advance!
Su Ming did not retreat!
"This is a show, a bloody show. Since you want to see it, since all of you want to see it, then why must so many people die …? I will show it to all of you!" Su Ming stood there and turned his head back to look in the direction of the southern warzone. He could vaguely see a person looking at him sternly over there.
'Since I chose to join this war, then I will have to do my part. I will choose to obey orders, but … I will do it in my own way!' Su Ming averted his gaze from the southern warzone and looked towards Sky Mist City.
'My actions and my will all belong to me alone! No one else, no one, can interfere with my actions, can't force them upon me. Di Tian in the void can't do it, Zhou De in the southern warzone can't do it, Sky Mist City … can't do it even if I don't want to! 'Besides the bloodlust and aloofness in Su Ming's eyes, there was also an unyieldingness within them.
That unyieldingness was a light that would not submit to any sort of will in the world, a light that would not bow to any sort of power!
'I've already attained completion in the Transcendence Realm, and I'm only a sliver away from the Bone Sacrifice Realm, but I still can't break through that sliver … What happened just now was definitely not a figment of my imagination … Perhaps this is the key for me to break through the Transcendence Realm and reach the Bone Sacrifice Realm!
'If I can completely melt that Berserker Bone in my body, then perhaps … I can reach the Bone Sacrifice Realm!'
After going through so many things, from Dark Mountain to the war between the Shamans and Berserkers, Su Ming had finally grown up. He was no longer a teenager, but a man who could stand up to the world.
Not only did his body grow, his heart also grew. Due to the appearance of his will, Su Ming felt as if he had been reborn. He became tenacious, like a puppet that had been tied to a string, and at that moment, the string started showing signs of breaking.
He had his own thoughts, his own will, and he dared to walk down this path!
He turned his head around and looked at Sky Mist City's Su Ming. Seven thousand something feet behind him were a hundred something Shamans charging towards him. The people leading them were a few Hunters from the Shaman Tribe at the peak of their power, and their eyes were filled with thick killing intent.
The arrival of this group of Shamans was like the presence of an army of thousands of men and horses. They stirred up the dust on the ground that had not been stained by too much blood. As the dust flew into the air, it looked as if it had turned into a ferocious mouth in midair that swept outwards, intending to devour Su Ming, who was blocking their way.
Su Ming's back was turned towards the Shamans. Several thousands of feet before him were the hundred something Berserkers who were retreating. As they retreated, they discovered to their surprise that Su Ming did not follow them. Gradually, their footsteps slowed down. More people turned their heads around and saw Su Ming standing behind them.
At the same time they saw him, they also saw the Shamans who were stirring up dust and the murderous presence behind him.
"Don't turn around! Go back to the warzone!" Su Ming let out a low roar.
There was a will contained within that roar. That will might not have much of an effect on the other Berserkers, but to the one hundred something followers of Su Ming who had slaughtered his way through the battlefield, the existence of that will and Su Ming's words were the strongest sound in their lives!
"Go back to the warzone and wait for me there!" The moment Su Ming's voice traveled forth, he turned around swiftly. At that moment, the incoming Shamans were already less than 4,000 feet away from him, and they could see each other's faces clearly.
"When you face a powerful Berserker, charging forward is a form of courage. When you face hundreds and thousands of powerful Berserkers, charging forward is also a form of courage … Perhaps one day, you will understand what that feeling is." Su Ming lowered his head and his elder's words echoed in his ears.
The Shamans were getting closer, and in the blink of an eye, they were already less than 3,000 feet away!
2,000 feet, 1,500 feet, 1,000 feet!
The instant the Shamans were only 1,000 feet away from Su Ming, he lifted his head swiftly and let out a low growl. In an instant, he charged forward.
'A life and death crisis can make the Berserker Bone in my body melt. I need an even greater danger, an even greater test of life and death. Only by doing so can I make my Berserker Bone melt completely, and only then can I … reach the Bone Sacrifice Realm!'
At that moment, his speed reached the fastest limit he had ever reached in this battlefield!
Strong wind howled. Su Ming was so quick that in the span of a breath, he covered several hundreds of feet and was already incredibly close to the Shamans.
"This is a very difficult mission to complete. Even if everyone dies, it will still be difficult to complete … There is only one way … and that is for me to go there alone at this extreme speed and stab that awl into the ground …"
'With my speed, it's not impossible for me to do this. I can come back … but the others can't! 'Besides, in this sort of danger, my Berserker Bone will definitely melt!
'Faster! Faster!' Su Ming roared in his heart. Banging sounds came from his body. His speed increased exponentially once again in this battlefield, under this willpower, and under this unique refinement. At the same time, he could clearly feel that due to his increased speed, the Berserker Bone in his body had melted slightly once again.
'It's still not enough. It's still too slow. I can only melt more if I go faster!' Su Ming's spirits lifted. He knew that his thoughts were correct. At that moment, the only thing in his mind was extreme speed.
This thought of wanting to become even faster fused with his thoughts and turned into his willpower. Under this willpower, the strange black stone fragment around his neck suddenly let out a dark light.
That item's origins were unknown, and the dark light shining from it seemed to have sensed Su Ming's willpower. It was just like when he was facing the statue of the god of Dark Mountain during his Berserkers' Initiation. Due to his desire to become a Berserker, the dark light shone from the black stone fragment and deceived the deity statue into acknowledging Su Ming's blood. At that moment, the feeling the dark light gave Su Ming was the same as in the past.
The moment the dark light shone, Su Ming suddenly had a feeling as if his body had turned into wind. That feeling came too suddenly, and it was soon followed by a sharp pain as if his entire body was being torn apart. His speed increased exponentially, and he left behind an afterimage before the incoming Shamans. As a violent gust of wind howled, the Shamans let out screams of pain. Some of them even looked as if their bodies had exploded out of thin air. The strength of that violent gust of wind coming towards them was like a windstorm.
In the span of a breath, Su Ming appeared behind the hundred something Shamans. He did not stop and charged straight towards the spot under the 10,000 feet gigantic beast that was protected by some Shamans.
As he charged at that extreme speed, besides the wind howling in his ears, no other sound could be heard. The feeling as if he had turned into the wind became even stronger.
However, Su Ming knew that this was definitely not a speed he could achieve. The black stone fragment had used the same method it used all those years ago in Dark Mountain. It had performed some sort of unknown and unique action to turn him into the wind!
He was the wind, and even his mind was immersed in the state where he had turned into the wind!
He did not need to fight against it. He did not need to let the wind pass through his body, because he was a part of the wind. His will was the wind's will, and wherever he went, the wind would move.
At that moment, he was only 35,000 feet away from his final goal. At the same time he had the feeling as if he had turned into the wind, Su Ming did not notice that his body was shining with a brilliant light. That light was blue, just like the sky during the day!
He also did not notice that at the same time his body shone with that brilliant blue light, the Berserker Bone he had obtained from Han Mountain's ancestor was melting at an unimaginable speed.
That bone belonged to a powerful Berserker in the Bone Sacrifice Realm. Its existence had allowed Su Ming to have nearly 1,000 blood veins. Its existence had also allowed Su Ming's level of cultivation to increase much faster than a normal person when he Transcended.
Right then, the bone was only left with half of its original size, but as it rapidly melted, in the blink of an eye … it completely melted!
As it melted, a powerful force filled Su Ming's entire body with a bang, causing his power to continuously increase, and his speed to become even faster.
But that was not all. As Su Ming's speed increased and the feeling as if he had turned into the wind became stronger, his spine rapidly absorbed that power into his body. The blue light around his body was spreading out from his spine.
It was also because of the feeling as if Su Ming had turned into the wind. In truth, there was indeed wind within his body at that moment. That wind had originally passed through his body, but as Su Ming's spine shone with that blue light and his spine absorbed the power in his body, that wind looked as if it was being sucked in. Once it pounced into Su Ming's body, it did not pass through him. Instead, it was rapidly absorbed by Su Ming's spine at a maddening pace, as if it was a black hole!
He also did not see that at that moment, the rolling green fog in the sky was tumbling about violently like a raging wave. As booming sounds came from within, it was as if a wave of power was charging forth from all directions in the sky, pressing down on the green fog that contained the powerful Berserkers, making it look as if it was about to shatter.
Booming sounds came from the sky. Those violent sounds shook the ground and the sky, practically becoming the strongest sound in the battlefield. Many people averted their gazes from Su Ming and instinctively looked towards the sky.
Yet when they looked over, they were shocked. Besides the Berserkers, the Shamans were also shocked!
