Chapter 853: Chapter 646 Black Martial City_1

A dazzling golden radiance exploded from the collapsing body, rising up like a golden sun. At this moment, heaven and earth lost their color, and all the Black Warriors shielded their eyes, unable to bear the sight.

As the Mother God of Hundred Ghosts, Pear Kadi Mother, was being dismembered by six dragon heads, Yana, shrouded in black mist, groaned and plummeted from the void.

With the Mother God of Hundred Ghosts dismembered, her six pieces of body slowly vanished into the void. The being with wings that overshadowed the sky and six dragon heads also disintegrated with a thunderous explosion. The "Hundred Clans Settlement" that Qi Ming had painstakingly created, thus dissipated into smoke and vanished completely in an instant.

After a long while, when everything calmed down, thousands of Black Warriors slowly began to gather in the center, facing a scene of utter devastation.

Eventually, they found Su Yu, unconscious and naked in the center. At this moment, the gaze of every Black Warrior upon him changed. Gone was the slightest hint of disdain, replaced by solemnity and even a veiled sense of reverence towards the mysterious unknown.

Su Yu remained unconscious for a long time. In the last moment of the outbreak, as the ghosts of a hundred children were descending along with the subsequent arrival of the Mother God of Hundred Ghosts, his consciousness began to blur. Then he felt a mysterious and immense will take over him, and beyond that, his awareness fluctuated between lucidity and unconsciousness, haunted by continuous nightmares. Within these terrifying dreams, he saw many horrifying scenes.

He saw burning giants descending from the sky, saw a massive woman with six white wings nailed to a towering cliff with her wings soaked red in blood, and saw a Golden Giant Dragon cut into pieces lying on the barren ground, emitting sorrowful wails.

One nightmare followed another, and Su Yu felt as if he had sunk into an endless hell of nightmares, until finally, a Golden Dragon with six heads appeared before him. The Golden Dragon bared its gaping maw and jeered at him with a "heh heh" sneer. Suddenly, the six dragons’ heads opened their mouths and pounced on him, biting into his head and limbs before violently tearing them apart.

"Ahh—" Su Yu shouted in anguish, suddenly opening his eyes and snapping back to consciousness.

With splitting headache, Su Yu realized he was lying on a bed surrounded by dimness. As he sat up holding his head, he noticed his body was drenched in a cold sweat, his clothes soaked through and clinging tightly to his skin.

"Where... where is this..." Su Yu’s mind was foggy, and he vaguely remembered being attacked by the ghost deities summoned by the mysterious woman wearing a sun hat, and then...

Then he knew nothing else.

"Su Yu, you’re awake?" A man’s voice sounded from outside.

With effort, Su Yu turned his head and saw a sliver of light coming through, followed swiftly by a door being pushed open. A man wielding a black longsword entered. It was none other than Qi Ming, the former Settlement Leader of the "Hundred Clans Settlement" and one of the eight thousand Black Warriors from ten thousand years ago.

Qi Ming, seeing Su Yu wake up and sit on the bed, wore a joyful expression. He quickly strode forward while Su Yu, pressing his head, said weakly, "Senior... where is this place? Have I... been unconscious for a long time?"

Remembering the seemingly endless nightmares, Su Yu wondered just how long he had actually slept in the real world.

Qi Ming nodded and then, with a smile, said, "Not too long. Including today, you’ve been unconscious for exactly twenty days."

"Ah?" Su Yu was startled and tried to rise but sat back down quickly as his head throbbed with pain.

"I’ve been unconscious for twenty days?" Su Yu’s eyes widened in shock and Qi Ming looked on in astonishment, "What’s wrong? Is there a problem?"

Su Yu began to calculate the days. Including the twenty days he had been unconscious, he soon realized with alarm that there was only a month and a half left until the six-month pact with the Maya Pillar Gods.

"How could I have been unconscious for so long, Ada... how is Ada, and everyone else... how are they now? Where is this place?"

Su Yu held his head while asking questions, and at the same time kept breathing in deeply. With each breath, he felt a surge of energy rise within him, slowly dissipating the pain and grogginess in his head.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Su Yu let go of his head, got out of bed, and stood up. He felt that something about his body had changed.

"You’ve been asleep for twenty days. We were all very worried about you, but it’s good that you’ve woken up. This is ’Black Martial City,’ located deep within the ’Million Great Mountains,’ built by Captain Wang Heng and his team back in the day. Ada is still in slumber."

Hearing Qi Ming’s words, Su Yu felt a little relieved. It seemed that after he had fallen unconscious, they had taken himself and Ada to retreat into the depths of the "Million Great Mountains," eventually reaching "Black Martial City," built by Wang Heng and a thousand Black Warriors.

His original clothes had been torn, but when he put on the black armor Qi Ming prepared for him, he suddenly realized that from the outside, he also resembled a Black Warrior. This made him chuckle bitterly before following Qi Ming out of the house and discovering that the sunlight was quite nice outside, where many Black Warriors had already gathered in a huge square. Each of them nodded and greeted Su Yu friendly, their attitudes completely changed.

Sleeping for twenty days and waking up once again, Su Yu felt like the entire world had changed. When Qi Ming took him into a grand hall that appeared quite majestic, Wang Heng, Zhang Kuo, Ming Jing, and others were already gathered there. As Su Yu walked in, all the Black Warriors stood up.

In the battle at "Hundred Clans Settlement," Su Yu had already established his status in their hearts. At least, now no Black Warrior dared to underestimate him.

Wang Heng and others like Zhang Kuo simply wanted to understand what had happened to Su Yu during the last moments of the battle at "Hundred Clans Settlement" twenty days ago, curious about the strange mutation that occurred in his body.

The Mother God of Hundred Ghosts summoned by Yana was known as the strongest Demon Divine Beast, and it was not an empty title. The most astonishing part was that Yana somehow managed to unleash the true power of this Demon Divine Beast, formidable enough to rival deities. Wang Heng and the others were no match for it, and just when it seemed over, Su Yu underwent a peculiar transformation. Those wings that blotted out the sky, the fluttering Golden Wings, and the six heads that looked as though they were cast from gold, only took less than two seconds to fight the Mother God of Hundred Ghosts. Then everything was over, the Great Mother Goddess Pear Kadi Mother was defeated and dismembered, and the six-headed monster collapsed as well.

Faced with questions from Wang Heng and the others, Su Yu didn’t really have an answer. He could guess that all this must be related to his own body and that mysterious will. But as for the cocoon that hatched his body and the origins of that will, he was also clueless.

Seeing that they couldn’t get any information out of him, Wang Heng and the others exchanged looks, slightly disappointed but even more so, excited.

"Su Yu, although we cannot deduce the cause, it is apparent that your body holds endless potential. You rest well today. Starting tomorrow, we few guys will join forces to assist you. We must stimulate the potential within you, so that you can master this power as soon as possible," Wang Heng said as he extended his palm and slapped Su Yu on the shoulder, laughing heartily.

Zhang Kuo smiled and said, "It’s no surprise that Ada chose you, the potential in this generation is indeed astonishing. Qi Ming mentioned you evolved from the Bronze Ninth Level to the Third Level Silver Soldier in one go. At this rate, even if we were on horseback, we couldn’t keep up."

Ming Jing looked at Su Yu with a grin and said, "Not bad, not bad, you’ve got charm despite your young age." He pinched Su Yu here and there, then nodded and said, "It seems you even have a few small muscles."

Su Yu never expected their attitude towards him to take such a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn, and that Ming Jing would come straight over to pinch and touch him, in a tofu-eating manner. Helpless to resist, Su Yu had no choice but to make his excuses and leave, running away as though fleeing.

Wang Heng laughed heartily, while Zhang Kuo glanced at Ming Jing and said, "You’re over ten thousand years old, how could you have the heart to lay hands on such a tender young thing? You scared him away."

Ming Jing rolled his eyes at him and chuckled, "This generation is such sweet innocence... I like it," he said, licking his lips.

Qi Ming accompanied Su Yu out of the hall. Only by wandering with Qi Ming did Su Yu realize how huge "Black Martial City" actually was, a fully-fledged city with vast dimensions, broad streets, and bustling people. Everyone who saw Qi Ming and Su Yu in their black armors showed a look of admiration and envy.

"Captain Wang Heng is truly incredible. A thousand years ago, he led a thousand Black Warriors here to retreat, and a thousand years of development have completely transformed this place into a real city. The people here are descendants of the Black Warriors from a millennium ago, and they still maintain the battle strength of a thousand regular Black Warriors. Compared to the Hundred Clans Settlement I made, it’s really no match at all," Qi Ming reminisced as he looked at the familiar scene before him.

Su Yu looked up at the sky and could make out that "Black Martial City" was nestled among the mountains. The city was self-sufficient, its inhabitants quite wealthy, and one could say that the whole city was martial. Of the thousand Black Warriors now under Wang Heng’s command, more than half were later recruits. The true Black Warriors from a millennium ago were few in number.

It was only after asking Qi Ming about Qin Jiagui and the others that Su Yu learned Qin Jiagui hadn’t followed them into the Million Great Mountains. He wanted to rush to the "Imperial City" for news about Yuan Niping; Qing Huang, curious about the "Imperial City," decided to go for a look and followed Qin Jiagui. As for Didi, he had entered the deep parts of the Million Great Mountains with Su Yu and Ada and was now in "Black Martial City."
