High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late

Chapter 452 - 344: Black Fog Monster, Fireseed Inheritance, The Human Race’s Future Will Not Be Like This!

To confirm his suspicions, Su Mu took a deep breath.

Then this body, almost instinctively, began to operate the Giant Breathing Technique, and immediately a burst of enlightenment flowed like a spring, appearing in the Sea of Consciousness.

Crackle!

A mass of purple, extremely yang and fierce, explosive thunder formed an outline in Su Mu’s Sea of Consciousness.

Feeling the thunder outline emerging in the Sea of Consciousness, Su Mu was overjoyed at heart; he was indeed correct.

The power mastered by the young Giant was the Power of Thunder. After joining the Garrison Team, he also chose a breathing technique with the thunder attribute. This thunder outline was the best proof!

Su Mu once again controlled the Giant’s body to attempt to operate the breathing technique. It was clearly the first time using the Breath of Thunder, yet it felt as if it had been used in battle a hundred or even a thousand times, though it hadn’t become a bodily instinct or reached a fluid state.

But it only took a slight hesitation to utilize it.

It’s always hard at the beginning; reaching this level of almost proficient operation, no matter how talented a demon is, it’s impossible to present it at the first try.

This requires a lot of time and effort.

Out of the blue.

The conversation he had with Marshal Yue in the snowy landscape echoed in Su Mu’s ears.

"The Relic Giant is a warrior race, who greatly admire martial prowess. The way they pass on their civilization seems incredible and... ferocious to us humans."

"Incredible, ferocious?"

"Exactly, whereas our human civilization was passed on through mediums like stones, bamboo slips, and paper in ancient times, Giants are different. Their civilization is more often passed on directly through flesh, blood, and even the soul..."

Su Mu’s deep eyes moved slightly.

"Perhaps after stepping into the Giant’s Blood Cave, Land of Giant Soul Slumber, and the Giant Marrow Cleansing Pool, I absorbed the Giant’s blood, soul, and bone marrow and cultivated the Giant Martial Arts..."

"Gathering all these, I, Su Mu, am already a Giant, an ’Acquired Giant’..."

"Therefore, the Giants here have truly recognized me as an ’Acquired Giant’ who can fully bear the Giants’ heritage, allowing me to witness the life of the Fallen Giants and absorb part of their civilization."

Thinking of this, Su Mu was both shocked and extremely delighted.

"This kind of civilization inheritance is indeed unbelievable..."

"Simply beyond the heavens..."

Su Mu couldn’t help but exclaim, "To directly acquire martial arts from memory, and even inherit part of the Martial Arts Mastery, even if not complete, and only a small part, this method of inheritance is too much against the heavens."

It’s important to know that much of the mastery of martial arts is built on countless efforts and life-and-death battles, and now he has easily inherited part of it. If this were to spread out, it would be shocking beyond measure.

After the ecstatic joy, Su Mu felt the earth could no longer bear the heavy burden, continuously emitting wailing sounds as cracks appeared on the ground.

This contrasted sharply with the overwhelming roars coming from afar.

In an instant, Su Mu suddenly felt a chill on his scalp as if he had understood something.

"Perhaps this method of inheritance wasn’t this way from the start... but purely out of desperation..."

"The Giants did not want their civilization to end here, they needed to preserve a spark."

"Thus they chose this simplistic and brutal method of inheritance, which is actually a desperate form of self-rescue."

Thinking of this, Su Mu looked again at the endless pit of Fallen Giants and felt an exceptionally heavy heart; the cost and method of this civilization heritage were so heavy.

Paved with endless bones, a ceaseless advance to leave a sliver of possibility for future generations, maybe even for posterity.

At this moment, Su Mu suddenly felt his beliefs were shaking; his vision seemed to be elevated, as if he walked out of a valley and stood at the mountain peak.

From an individual and family perspective, he glimpsed the level of racial civilization.

"Unfortunately, the Giants still have no future; the Giants have still been exterminated."

"This is the future of the Giants..."

The black mist filled the sky and approached.

"Then what about my future..."

"What about the future of the Human Race?"

"Could it be..."

In the next second, Su Mu clenched his fist hard, making a crisp sound of bones cracking, "It cannot be so!"

"The future of the Giants is a foregone conclusion, but my future has not yet occurred; since it’s the future, it can be changed!"

"Human civilization will never repeat the missteps of the Giants..."

"Everything left behind by the Giants will not be in vain. This spark that I, Su Mu, see, will never be extinguished..."

At this moment, Su Mu resolutely turned around.

"What fear is there in such a trivial black mist, to conquer fear, one must face fear directly!"

Su Mu forcefully suppressed the fear in this body that surpassed death, facing the black mist.

For a moment, Su Mu felt the body’s instincts fiercely grappling with him for control, but he did not retreat a single step.

The black mist drew closer, the evil aura within it, and the foul stench of the Fierce Beast’s heavy breath came towards him, mixed with a thick rusty and fishy smell, a smell of blood so strong it was overwhelming.

With the pressure of the black mist, Su Mu and the Giant’s consciousness crazily fought for control, the Giant’s body slowly leaned forward, twitching spasmodically.

The body’s knees slowly sank, and at this moment Su Mu snorted coldly.

"Stand up, don’t kneel!"

Su Mu looked at the overwhelming black mist.

"If the civilization of future humans is destined to perish, then I, Su Mu, will be the one to change history, to turn the tide!"

"I am the fire seed, destined to set the land ablaze!"

At this moment, Su Mu let out a great wish to turn the tide!

As if in response to Su Mu’s will.

On this shattered ground, countless Giant corpses, long fallen and forgotten through the ages, came alive and let out a defiant roar.

That mournful melody resonated throughout the land at this moment.

Instantly, the remaining desolation, confusion, and despair in Su Mu’s heart were swept away by a powerful will, replaced by unprecedented determination and confidence.

His entire demeanor was like being reborn from the ashes, his entire being burning from flesh through to bone marrow, and bone marrow to the soul.

As if truly becoming that fire seed.

The fire seed capable of dispelling the endless black mist!

Just as the endless black mist finally arrived, at the moment of being engulfed.

Su Mu still held his head high, throwing a fierce punch.

...

The endless black mist instantly swallowed Su Mu.

Cold, lonely, and desperate negative emotions consumed Su Mu, like falling into an endless abyss, continuously drowning in the feeling of the deep sea.

In the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool, Su Mu shuddered all over, then calmly opened his eyes.

Unbeknownst to him, the Bone Marrow Cleansing Liquid in the pool had already been completely consumed.

In the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool, Su Mu took several deep breaths, then entered into Introspection.

In the sea of consciousness, brilliant as a galaxy, a mass of purple thunder quietly resided in a corner of the Sea of Consciousness.

"It turns out it wasn’t just a simple dream, I indeed received part of that young Giant’s heritage."

"Breath of Thunder!"

In the next second.

The cave echoed with the sound of thunder crackling, purple thunder circulating through every inch of Su Mu’s flesh, at that moment Su Mu felt he was the thunder.

He stretched out his hand, and suddenly a large thunderbolt, as thick as a barrel, emerged with a roar of thunder.

Su Mu’s eyes lit up as he carefully observed the operation of the Breath of Thunder.

This mode of operation was stronger and closer to thunder than his self-realized method, which was rough.

"This is the real breathing technique!"

Just as Su Mu was about to delve into his studies, a mass of black mist suddenly appeared in the void.

Buzz-----

Then the Crystal Human Form in Su Mu’s Sea of Consciousness belatedly opened its eyes, emitting an unprecedented and overwhelming danger warning.

In the void, the black mist shook and then a black rift appeared.

From the black rift, a terrifying, incomparably evil eye opened.
