"Save me … The person I would risk everything to bring into Freezing Sky's priceless treasure is definitely you … Su Ming!
"Su Ming, I am the third Lord of Heaven Gate. During the disaster, a drastic change happened to Heaven Gate. Besides me, the virtuous woman, and Bai Su's father, all the other Lords of Heaven Gate died …
"This disaster came from Si Ma Xin!
"I don't know what sort of serendipity Si Ma Xin obtained, but he has almost mastered the Great Art of Berserker Seed. His power is also unfathomable, as if there is no end to it. Heaven Gate cannot win against him …
"The others and I were implanted with his tendons. We can only listen to him, and we have no control over our own lives … The entire Heaven Gate is already under his control.
"The cultivation method I am practicing is a little unique. I can break free of his control for a short period of time and leave these words in the vase. "The ninth summit was still preserved not because of Si Ma Xin, but because I told him that the ninth summit could lure you here.
"I could do nothing about it, but no matter what, I helped your Master and helped all of you protect the ninth summit …
"If you didn't have enough power, you wouldn't have entered this vase. If you can enter this place, then it means that after many years, I believe you can do it …
"There are nine layers in Heaven Gate. Besides the first and ninth layers, the remaining seven layers became the habitats of the tribes nearby during the disaster, but now, those tribes have all become Si Ma Xin's people …
"Kill Si Ma Xin, and we … will acknowledge the ninth summit as our ruler!
"It's not difficult to leave this vase. You just need to say those five words, and you can leave. Please shatter the Qi in my heart. If you succeed, then I will have a way to wake up. If you fail, then I will die with you. That would be better than this …"
The place where Su Ming stood was filled with chaos. He could not see too far into the distance. He could only see that there seemed to be a wisp of fog spinning around him, causing all those who stared at it for a prolonged period of time would find themselves spinning along with it.
The voice belonging to the old man in white echoed in Su Ming's ears. That voice should have been sealed in the vase for a long time. Clearly, it was just as the old man had said, he had prepared this beforehand.
In silence, Su Ming remembered the red line at the center of the old man's brows, remembered Zi Che's strangeness, and the dozens of thin threads that crawled out of the dead old woman's bones.
All of these things were strange, causing Su Ming to form guesses regarding the old man's words.
'Do you believe me or not..?' Su Ming lifted his head and a freezing glare appeared in his eyes.
"I can trust Su Ma Xin's words, but I can't trust his words to leave this place. I have to figure it out myself!"
In the first layer of Heaven Gate, while the bald crane was searching through the treasures in an incredibly smug manner, the old man in white held the vase in his hands in the sky. There was a slightly excited expression on his face when he suddenly widened his eyes. Fine cracks had appeared on the vase, and muffled booming sounds traveled into the air.
The moment he was stunned, the vase instantly exploded, turning into a loud bang that stirred up an echo that did not disappear even after a long time had passed. At the same time the vase shattered, a hand shot out from the shattered vase at lightning speed and seized the old man's neck. With a light exhale, a huge force surged into the old man's body and shattered his heart Qi.
The old man coughed up a mouthful of blood. As his body tumbled backwards, the world before his eyes turned dark, but there was a hint of anticipation and excitement hidden deep within his eyes. As his body fell to the ground, it gradually disappeared, so much so that he did not notice that there was a pair of shifty eyes swiftly flying towards him from below with the same anticipation and excitement.
By then, most of the black fog in the sky had already surged into the crack. The booming sounds continued, and there was only one person left before Su Ming - Zi Che …
Zi Che had turned into red fog, and his face would occasionally be revealed within that fog. His crazed expression and struggling eyes were filled with a hint of pain and madness as he charged towards Su Ming.
"You're from the ninth summit …" Su Ming looked at Zi Che and mumbled softly. He could not kill Zi Che like how he killed other people, because it was just as he said, Zi Che belonged to the ninth summit!
Almost the instant the red fog that was Zi Che closed in on him, a hint of grief appeared on Su Ming's face. The air before him suddenly shook, and the small snake flew out. Its expression was no longer cold and sullen. Instead, it opened its mouth and let out a roar towards the incoming Zi Che with a calm look on its face.
As it roared, the Candle Dragon's gigantic shadow immediately manifested. The instant Zi Che closed in on him, the snake devoured him. With that one devour, it was as if a small part of the world had been devoured by it. The red fog that was Zi Che also found it difficult to escape. He was completely devoured by the small snake.
However, devouring him did not mean that he would die. The world within the Candle Dragon's body could contain Zi Che, and once … Su Ming killed Si Ma Xin, the seal formed by the Berserker Seed in his body would be broken.
Su Ming lifted his head and looked at the black fog surging into the hole in the sky. In silence, he stood up and charged towards the black fog. As if he had fused together with the fog filled with the aura of death, he rushed into the hole and stepped into the second layer of Heaven Gate!
The instant he left the first layer of Heaven Gate, the bald crane, which was searching for the old man in white who had his Heart Vein shattered and whose fate was unknown, was originally trembling in excitement as it searched for all sorts of things it believed to be treasures with its professional methods.
Suddenly, Su Ming's aloof voice appeared in its head.
"You can search for anything you want. Since you can come in, then you must be able to go out as well. When you go out, help me take care of my senior brother, or else I'll take away all the things you've plundered.
"If you do well, then I'll consider letting you follow behind me and you can continue searching for treasures."
The bald crane might have heard the first half of Su Ming's sentence, but it did not think much of it and was filled with disdain. However, when it heard the second half of Su Ming's sentence, it was momentarily stunned before it let out a shrill cry. Once it swept away the clouds and under the monstrous anger and killing intent from all the disciples in the first layer of Heaven Gate, it immediately crawled into the crumbling Rune, and with some unknown method, it disappeared without a trace.
"No one can take away my treasures! No one! But if I can continue following behind, then just how many treasures will I be able to get..? "The bald crane appeared in midair above the ninth summit in the seawater in the Land of South Morning. It lifted its claw and stroked its chin. Once it made some calculations, its eyes shone with excitement and it charged towards the ninth summit.
"I'll work, I'll work! As long as I get my treasures, I'll work!"
"I am a bird! I am a crane! I am a wise and mighty crane! I am an upright and upright bird …" The bald crane spoke in a hoarse voice. Perhaps it was too happy, but when it flew to the ninth summit, it started shouting loudly.
…..
At the instant Su Ming stepped into Heaven Gate's second layer, he was caught in a slaughter. Around him was a plain. Green grass grew on the plain, and the fragrance of the earth wafted into the air, causing all those who smelled it to feel refreshed and refreshed, but now …
Battles raged in this place, and the sounds of horse hooves reverberated in the air, causing the grass to crumble and the ground to tremble. This was … an army of tens of thousands!
There was an innumerable amount of people wearing leather armor and black masks riding ferocious beasts that looked like dragons but had the bodies of horses. These ferocious beasts charged forward like the wind, and even the weakest Berserker among them was in the later stage of the Transcendence Realm.
These thousands of people formed this army, and they started slaughtering and charging towards Su Ming on the plain. The long spears and the glints of blades caused the land to rain blood and the stench of blood!
In the Land of South Morning, the only people who were skilled in horsemanship and possessed this unique fighting ability near Freezing Sky Clan were Shepherd Tower Tribe, a tribe that was not located in the frozen region!
The members of the Shepherd Tower Tribe specialized in the art of heavy horsemanship. Their cultivation and divine abilities were all unleashed after fusing with the war steeds beneath them. Their strongest move was when they charged at full speed with their war steeds after riding dozens or more of them.
If there were more than a hundred of them, this sort of charge could be said to be incredibly shocking, and if there were more than a thousand of them … they could even shake the ground! In fact, these warhorses could even leap into the air. Even if they were fighting in the sky, they could still execute the charge that was unique to Shepherd Tower Tribe!
At that moment, these thousands of Shepherd Tower Tribe members were by Su Ming's side. Clearly, they had already received their orders and were waiting for Su Ming's arrival once again. If anyone took a closer look, they would be able to see fine red lines appearing indistinctly under the masks of each Shepherd Tower Tribe member's eyes.
This was a plain, but it was also a valley. The reason for that was because there was a ring-shaped mountain range in the surroundings. On the mountain range, there were many villages. To the Shepherd Tower Clan, the plains were their home. Due to the fact that warhorses could soar into the sky, the mountains were also their home.
At that moment, there were around a thousand Shepherd Tower Tribe members on the mountain range. These people wore red masks, and there was a bloodthirsty and murderous aura surrounding them. Before them stood three people.
Besides the old man standing in the middle, the other two people were incredibly big and built men. The ripples of power that belonged to those in the initial stage of the Berserker Soul Realm spread out from their bodies.
Compared to them, the old man standing in the middle did not seem to have too many ripples spreading out from his body. However, from the respectful expressions on the two men's faces and where they were fighting, it was clear that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Sir Si Ma has given his orders. If any tribe manages to injure even one of his limbs … then they will be free … Our Shepherd Tribe has fallen to this state, and our fate is no longer in our control. Kill them … Let our tribe members kill them. So what if we die in battle? As long as we cut off one of his limbs, then our entire tribe … will be free!"
The old man mumbled. With a complicated look on his face, he looked towards the battlefield in the valley. With a swing of his arm, he charged forward. At that moment, he no longer cared about his status. There was only one thing he wanted to do, and that was for his tribe's freedom!
The two men followed behind him in silence. Behind them, the one thousand blood-red cavaliers lifted their long spears high and rushed towards the mountain range like a layer of red fog!
Further away in the villages were children hugging their mothers. There were old people watching quietly. Their expressions were apathetic, and in their eyes, be it the women, the children, or even the babies who had just been born, there were red threads dancing in a strange and enchanting manner in their eyes.
The babies' cries echoed in the air, because the red threads in their eyes caused them pain, but they could not pull them out. They could only cry endlessly. Shepherd Tower Tribe … was already used to this sort of life.
