Clouds tumbled about outside Sky Mist City in the Land of South Morning. Thunder rumbled in the sky, and rain poured down. The appearance of this rain was strange. It had fallen on the ground several months ago, and it had not stopped since then.
Everything in the world looked indistinct in the rain, causing people to be unable to see too far into the distance. As the rain fell, a humid stench of the sea spread out in all directions.
The towering Sky Mist City in the past was now in dead silence. Not a single sound could be heard, but if anyone took a closer look, they would find that it was slightly different from before. The walls of the mountain range had become much taller. If anyone lifted their heads from the city, they would be able to sense this clearly.
If anyone cast their eyes over the land of the Shamans beyond Sky Mist City, they would find that there was not a single soul on the land of the Shamans. If anyone looked down from the highest point in the sky and looked down at the entire Land of South Morning, then they would find that at the edge of the land of the Shamans, there were raging waves surging into the sky. The vast amount of seawater was continuously submerging the land, and by the looks of it, before long, it would reach Sky Mist City!
Further away from the seawater was the Dead Sea shrouded in rain. There was a gigantic piece of land approaching the land of the Shamans. It might have seemed slow, but in truth, if anyone got close to it, they would be able to tell that it was traveling at an incredibly fast speed.
That dark continent was the Eastern Wastelands. As it approached, violent gusts of wind howled and the seawater roared. It also filled the land of the Shamans, drowning all the mountains at the edge and turning a large amount of plains into an endless sea.
The Catastrophe of the Eastern Wastelands was going on furiously. Before long, when the Eastern Wastelands crashed into the Land of South Morning, the disaster would fully unfold for the people in the Land of South Morning. The mountains would crumble, the earth would crack, the mountains would move, and the seas would be overturned. Under this sort of disaster, even those with great power would find it difficult to fight against it.
No one could predict just how many people would be left in the Land of South Morning once the disaster was over …
All the forces of power would be thrown into chaos. It did not matter whether it was the Berserkers or the Shamans. As they crumbled, they would no longer have any order, no sects, no big tribes, and the land would descend into chaos!
The beginning of chaos would also be the time after the disaster, and it would be the time for powerful warriors to rise to power …
At that moment, at the edge of the sea that surged into the sky in the land of the Shamans, there were eight people charging forward. Among these eight people, there were three women, and the rest were men. The old ones had white hair, and the young ones were only eighteen or nineteen years old. These eight people might have come from different tribes, but at that moment, once they gathered together, they were doing the same thing …
Run!!
They were fleeing desperately. There were no experts chasing after them, but at this moment, their expressions were filled with bitterness and fear.
Even though there were no experts chasing after him, there were endless roars and huge waves from the endless black dead sea. There were also the muffled roars of the endless powerful life forms.
A thousand miles behind them was a mountain. At that moment, that mountain collapsed with a loud bang. The reason for its collapse was because of a huge wave crashing down on it. As it collapsed, the crushed rocks and the mountain itself were submerged by the surging seawater, becoming a part of the boundless sea.
In the sky, as the clouds churned and the rain fell, there was a dense flock of birds. These birds came from the Dead Sea. They were born in the Dead Sea and lived out their lives in the sky. When they died, if they had the strength, they would return to the Dead Sea.
They formed groups and whistled through the air. Their numbers were endless, and it was impossible to count. It was as if they covered the sky, and wherever they went, there was no rain!
These birds were indifferent to the creatures on the ground and in the sea, but they were incredibly aggressive towards all life forms that were not of the same species as them in the sky. Once they ran into them, they would attack in a flock, and they would not stop until they died!
However, their numbers seemed endless. Even if a large number of them died, there would still be a large number of new birds rushing out from the seawater!
This was just a part of the gigantic sea. At that moment, they were at the edge of the land of the Shamans in the Land of South Morning, and dangers like this could be found everywhere.
"We can't fly. We can only walk on the ground … But … how are we supposed to cross the Dead Sea behind us?!" a middle-aged man among the eight people running on the ground spoke in anguish.
"Even if we can't travel fast, we have to risk our lives. Only when we reach Eternal Ring Mountain will we have a chance to survive!"
The one who spoke was a woman among the eight. Her face was pale as she spoke anxiously. "Eternal Ring Mountain is the closest rescue spot to us. There's a Relocation Rune there that's meant for all the Shamans. We can only leave through the Rune before the seawater drowns it. Only then can we buy enough time to leave the land of the Shamans!"
"What's the point of leaving the land of the Shamans? My tribe has already fallen apart, and the remaining members of my tribe have already scattered. Even if we go to the land of the Berserkers, we might not be able to meet them again …" a boy about eighteen or nineteen years old who had been silent throughout the journey spoke with a bitter smile.
As they spoke, a muffled boom came from behind them. The appearance of that sound immediately caused the expressions of the eight people to change drastically. They no longer spoke, but instead gritted their teeth and increased their speed.
At that moment, the sea howled and surged towards them hundreds of lis behind them. The waves rose high into the air, as if there was a powerful force pushing against them. Wherever they went, everything would be covered by the seawater.
A gigantic head popped out from the surface of the sea, and its eyes were staring coldly at the eight people hundreds of lis away from them. The mercilessness and aloofness in those eyes caused the eight people to feel a chill even though they did not turn their heads back.
"Dead Sea Giant!" The hearts of the eight people who were fleeing trembled. As they charged forward, the seawater behind them closed in on them at an even faster speed. The head on the surface of the sea slowly sank down. It seemed to have disappeared, but soon, it popped up from the surface of the sea that was even closer to the eight people.
The seawater spread out and drew closer to the eight people. From the distance of hundreds of lis just now, it was only a hundred lis away from them after a moment. The roars on the surface of the sea and the stench of seawater seemed to be right beside the eight people.
When a huge wave rose up with a howl, it fell down, causing the seawater to spread even faster. The woman who had mentioned Eternal Ring Mountain among the eight people gritted her teeth and leaped up. She no longer flew at a low altitude, but instead swiftly flew into midair. She coughed out a mouthful of blood, and her body immediately turned into a bloody fog that charged into the distance.
The remaining seven people did the same thing one after another while they hesitated. They turned into seven long arcs and charged into the sky. There was a towering mountain about hundreds of lis away from them.
That mountain was a mountain range, and it formed a ring. The top of the mountain was not the tip of the mountain, but a platform. It also looked like a ring, and that was the Eternal Ring Mountain they spoke of!
The eight people in the sky no longer cared about each other. With their full speed, they charged towards the mountain, but almost at the instant they flew up, countless birds charged towards them from all directions with loud whistles.
The speed of those birds far surpassed theirs. They looked as if they had turned into a gigantic palm that charged towards the eight people with a sweep. Almost at the instant the bird closed in on them, the eight people executed their divine abilities. Colorful lights flashed, and as booming sounds echoed in the air, four of them rushed out of the birds' encirclement, but the remaining four were eternally trapped in the flock of birds. As shrill screams of pain rose into the air, they were torn to shreds, and their broken bodies were left in the stomachs of numerous birds.
The four people who had used all their abilities to charge out of the birds heard their companions' shrill screams of pain. Their faces turned even paler, and they did not stop in their fear. They charged towards the mountain. They were not far away to begin with, and soon, they were less than thousands of feet away from the mountain. At that moment, the seawater beneath them had already spread to less than ten thousand feet from the mountain!
At the same time, a large number of flying beasts charged over once again. A moment later, one of the four people was surrounded by the flying beasts, and was unable to escape. Once he died, the remaining three people finally stood on the mountain.
There were two men and one woman. The woman was the one who had mentioned Eternal Ring Mountain. As for the two men, one of them was a middle-aged man, and the other an old man.
"I know how to activate this Rune. The two of you, protect me!" The woman immediately took a few quick steps forward and stepped into a Rune that was carved on the ground of the mountain.
Just as she was fiddling with the Rune in an attempt to activate it, the seawater under the mountain closed in. With loud bangs, it crashed into the mountain. In fact, if one stood at the top of the mountain, they could clearly see that the area less than one hundred something feet below them had turned into an endless sea.
The mountain trembled. Cracks spread out on its surface, as if it could not withstand the impact of the seawater and was about to collapse. At that moment, a gigantic head popped up from the surface of the sea around the mountain. As the seawater howled, a gigantic black hand shot out from the depths of the sea to seize the three people on the mountain.
From the distance, it looked as if there was a giant in the seawater, and at that moment, it had lifted its hand to destroy everything.
Besides the woman, the expressions of the old man and the middle-aged man were filled with shock. Their hearts trembled, and the old man immediately took a step towards the middle-aged man. He lifted his right hand and pushed down violently on his body, intending to push him towards the place where the hand was going to seize him so that he could avoid the disaster. However, almost at the moment he attacked, the middle-aged man instantly moved to the side and lifted his right hand to seize the old man. He had the same intention.
At the instant the two of them were plotting against each other, a sinister smile appeared on the lips of the woman in the Rune. A bright light suddenly erupted from the Rune under her, and a pushing force erupted from it, pushing the old man and the middle-aged man off the mountain and into the direction of the gigantic hand that came to seize them.
"B * tch! You … "The expressions of the old man and the middle-aged man changed drastically, but before they could say anything, their words turned into pained screams. They were seized by the hand and crushed into pieces of flesh and blood.
Once the Dead Sea Giant's hand crushed the old man and the middle-aged man, it continued to clench its fist and charged towards the Rune on the mountain with loud booming sounds.
"Thank you, both of you." The woman laughed coldly. At that moment, the Rune began to circulate, and her figure instantly disappeared. However, at the instant she seemed to have disappeared, she suddenly reappeared. The cold smile on her face turned into shock. She swiftly turned around, and with one glance, she saw that as the Rune began to circulate, another figure had appeared beside her!
He was dressed in white, had a head full of black hair, a pale face, and a grim expression on his face. He … was Su Ming! (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
