(In the previous chapter, Jiu Ying had been changed to Jiu Li.)
As he looked at the three roaring dragon heads in the pool where Black Water City was, Su Ming sucked in a deep breath. He gained a very shocking understanding towards Lie Shan Family's strength.
"It doesn't matter whether it's the Rune, the stone dragon, the Great Bright Light Rune, or even the agreement between you and the Nine-Headed Dragon … but how did you manage to split the Tai Ci Family? How did you make them … betray you at such a critical moment?" Su Ming remained silent for a moment before he looked at Elder Feng.
"Black Ink Dao did not exist in Black Ink Planet in the past. Ever since we came here, Black Ink Dao came into existence. We have trusted followers in each of the families. We are the kings in the dark, and we can decide whether a family will prosper or fall.
"We can stir up internal strife in Black Ink Planet, and we can also bring forth a disaster that will shock the four Great True Worlds, such as … the change in Black Ink Planet in the past." Elder Feng smiled, but his words caused Su Ming's heart to tremble once again.
If he calculated the time, the change in Black Ink Planet had also happened when Lie Shan Xiu came to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence.
"As for why we could make the members of these families become Berserkers and make them choose to betray us when we needed them, perhaps you should be able to guess some of it." Elder Feng cast Su Ming a glance. He did not reveal everything, but instead had the ghost of a smile on his lips.
Su Ming remained silent for a moment before he said in a low voice, "That is the divine ability the second God of Berserkers created himself."
"Before the Lord God of Berserkers and I left, we saw that there were three people who had the right to take over the God of Berserkers' position. I wonder whether the second God of Berserkers you speak of is one of them. It doesn't matter whether he is or not, but the Great Art of Heartless Berserker Seed is not created by the second God of Berserkers, as you say … but the Art the Lord God of Berserkers used to enslave all worlds … is also the God of Berserkers' Art!
In this world, only Lord Lie Shan, with his unprecedented talent, was able to create this technique. "Old Feng shook his head and slowly said.
As the two of them spoke to each other, the weather in the sky above Black Water City changed. Booming sounds shook the sky and earth. It was the sound of the air crumbling due to the fight between the three heads of the Nine-Headed Dragon and the three old men in Solar Kalpa Realm.
This was the first living Nine-Headed Dragon Su Ming had ever seen. Its strength was incredibly shocking. In fact, in Su Ming's eyes, if the Candle Dragon had run into this Nine-Headed Dragon when it was at its peak, then since they were mortal enemies, it would have been difficult to tell just who would have won.
In fact, Su Ming could even feel that … the Nine-Headed Dragon was slightly stronger than the Candle Dragon.
'It has nine heads. Right now, the three heads that have appeared can already fight against three Solar Kalpa Realms. If all nine heads appear at the same time, then even if it hasn't reached the Realm of Masters of Fate, Lives, and Death, it will still be enough … for it to become the strongest person under the Masters of Fate.'
Booming sounds came from the screen of light and echoed in Lie Shan Family's auction hall. Su Ming looked at the screen of light and spoke calmly after some time.
"It's no wonder why you didn't care about the Tai Ci Family using the Relocation method to destroy Lie Shan Family. If Black Water City alone is already so powerful, then Lie Shan Family must have hidden even more power."
Elder Feng lifted his right hand and swung it forward. Immediately, the area beyond the screen of light distorted, and nearly a hundred screens of light of various sizes appeared. Each of them had a different picture, and they showed the locations of all the families in Black Ink Planet.
"If you're curious, then just watch," Elder Feng said with a smile.
Su Ming swept his gaze past the near one hundred screens of light and fell silent.
He saw long arcs within these screens of light. They were the members of the Tai Ci Family, and they were heading towards the families in Black Ink Planet to ask for help.
Chen Family, a middle-tier family in Black Ink Planet.
A long arc charged down from the sky and descended in an instant to reveal a middle-aged man. He was dressed in a luxurious robe and had an anxious expression on his face. Once he descended, he immediately wrapped his fist in his palm towards Chen Family.
"I, Tai Ci An of the Tai Ci Family, bring a letter from our Progenitor and request an audience with Chen Family's Progenitor. This matter concerns the drastic change that has happened to all the families in Black Ink Planet, and we hope that Progenitor of Chen Family will meet us!"
"Capture this person!" Almost at the moment the middle-aged man finished speaking, an ancient voice came from Chen Family. Once that voice spoke, dozens of people charged out from within Chen Family.
The middle-aged man's expression changed. He was just about to retreat, but there were quite a number of powerful warriors among the dozens of people whose levels of cultivation were higher than his. When they attacked, they did not give the middle-aged man any chance to fight back. It was as if they wanted to immediately kill him, as if there was someone watching them, and the Chen Family was eager to show their sincerity.
In just ten breaths, a shrill scream of pain reverberated in the air, and the middle-aged man from the Tai Ci Family who had come to ask for help was destroyed. It was also at this moment that an incredibly built man with a flowery mask walked out from Chen Family. Chen Family's Progenitor personally followed behind him, and there were also a large number of powerful warriors from the Chen Family following behind him.
"Sir, don't worry. The Chen Family has long since found the Tai Ci Family an eyesore. Even if you didn't come, we would have still killed that person from the Tai Ci Family today." Chen Family's Progenitor wrapped his fist in his palm respectfully.
The man nodded and took a step forward before turning into a long arc and leaving. Only when he left did Chen Family's Progenitor wipe off the cold sweat on his forehead.
Su Ming saw this scene on the screen of light. In fact, he saw a similar scene on all the screens of light. All the members of the Tai Ci Family who were sent out were killed by their own families in a hurry.
However, there were also those who did not die. They were the Mo Family from Ink Kirin City and the Hua Family from Worldly Star Star City. These two families were also at the peak of the world, and they did not kill the people from the Tai Ci Family who came to ask for help. However, they refused to meet them.
As for the cultivators from the Tai Ci Family who were heading to the place where Lie Shan Family was located, Su Ming saw them charging forward in the sky with thousands of people. Suddenly, a gigantic tentacle stretched out from the clouds in the space before them. There was a large amount of polyps on that tentacle, and as it swept through the area, the world looked as if it was rotating. As the sea of clouds tumbled about, a gigantic creature that was one hundred thousand feet in size was revealed.
It was a gigantic octopus. With the clouds as its sea, it swam about in the sky, and at that moment, it had appeared out of nowhere and started a brutal slaughter on the thousands of cultivators from the Tai Ci Family.
In fact, if Su Ming took a closer look, he could vaguely see an old man sitting cross-legged on the head of the gigantic octopus.
That old man's face was indistinct, and Su Ming could not see it clearly, but there was a layer of water vapor that seemed to be surrounding the old man. When the sun shone, it reflected a seven-colored light.
"That's the old Rain Berserker." Elder Feng smiled.
Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Fog. They were the four Great Generals under the first God of Berserkers' command!
Su Ming fell silent. When he averted his gaze from the screens of light, he had a general idea of Lie Shan Family's strength in Black Ink Planet. With this sort of strength, it was just as Elder Feng had said. They … were the hidden kings of Black Ink Planet.
Even if their methods were slightly despicable and they did not act in a righteous manner, just like how Lie Shan Family had chosen to be the hidden kings of Black Ink Planet, those who were in the dark would naturally not choose to act in a righteous manner.
Su Ming agreed to this, because he knew that the brighter a fire was in the dark, the more attention it would attract. Usually, the first thing to be extinguished would be the fire that everyone could see.
True immortality was to hide in the darkness, or even to become one with it. That way, one would never be destroyed, and would instead become an existence that could destroy others.
This was the path Lie Shan Xiu chose when he came to Black Ink Planet, and it was precisely because of this that Black Ink Dao managed to become a force of power in Black Ink Planet that could overturn the world after tens of thousands of years.
This was … the strength of the Barbarian Tribe!
"Lord God of Berserkers once said that he is a Berserker, and we are all Berserkers. Then … everything we do, even if it's incredibly despicable, even if we act like vile people … is all for the Berserkers to exist in the universe.
It is not easy for a race to rise to power. It is just like how the Lord God of Berserkers thought that the Berserkers had already risen to power in the past. In fact, he was prepared to change the skies of True Morning Dao World and turn it into the Berserkers' True World … but the ancient will from Yin Death Region could still easily destroy everything the Lord had with a flip of his hand, forcing him to obey and leave the land of Berserkers to search for Yin Death Region's door.
"Did you think that before we left in the past, we did not think about leaving behind some hope for the Berserkers and some treasures? In fact, did we just watch as the Berserkers gradually fell into decline..?
"Did you think that we left to search for a chance to reach a breakthrough? Did you really think that we did it for ourselves..?
"Did you think that the stone monument of inheritance Lord Lie Shan Xiu left behind and the words' three generations will end 'were really that carefree and that he no longer cared about the rise and fall of the Berserkers?" Elder Feng asked softly, but the impact of his words affected Su Ming.
"I don't know why you left Yin Death Region, but I can guess that you were definitely forced to leave! "Because in the past, the Lord God of Berserkers, Lie Shan Xiu, was threatened by Yin Death Region and forced to leave and search for the door to the fifth True World for Yin Death Region's will.
"If he did not obey, then the Berserkers … would all be destroyed. He could only obey in humiliation and bury his hatred and madness in his heart. He chose to leave, and to make Yin Death Region's will be at ease, he had to steel his heart and … draw a clear line between himself and the Berserkers!" When Elder Feng said these words, his expression twisted, and madness and hatred appeared in his eyes.
"Over the tens of thousands of years, we … have been constantly thinking about our home, about our people, and about all of you … All the buildings in Lie Shan Family are maps of the Berserkers. You have never seen the grief we feel when we look at the maps of the Berserkers. You have never seen the pain in our hearts when we miss our home.
"Over the tens of thousands of years, we have worked tirelessly. We have given up on our dignity, given up on acting in a righteous manner, and thrown ourselves into darkness, all so that one day … we could slaughter our way back to Yin Death Region and kill all the wills in Yin Death Region so that we Berserkers … could walk out of Yin Death Region completely and … could become the strongest race in the universe!" Elder Feng's words were like a storm, and as they rumbled, they landed in Su Ming's heart. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
