Dragon's Origin

Chapter 69: The Terrifying Thousand Severance Ground 13

Song Ming's speed was extremely fast, so fast that even Wang Sheng was caught off guard. Wang Sheng had just shot an arrow at the rock on Eagle Beak Cliff when Song Ming charged out.

By the time Wang Sheng tugged on the string connected to the long arrow to make sure it was secure, Song Ming had already covered more than half the distance.

The end of the thin rope was completely fixed to the military watch. Wang Sheng didn't need to grip it with his hand; the watch strap was strong enough to support Wang Sheng's weight.

Without a second thought, Wang Sheng leaped off the cliff. After falling less than three meters, his arm tightened, and the high-molecular-weight rope snapped taut, swinging him towards the opposite cliff.

Song Ming watched as Wang Sheng jumped off the cliff. By the time he reached the edge, Wang Sheng had already swung five meters away. Song Ming immediately understood the terrain and was alarmed.

If Wang Sheng escaped, they would have to face the Thousand Severance Ground themselves. They didn't have Wang Sheng's ability to foresee danger. Staying here, no matter which direction they went, would only lead to death.

Without hesitation, Song Ming charged towards Wang Sheng, who was holding onto the invisible thin line with one hand and swinging towards the other side. Reaching the edge of the cliff at high speed, he kicked off with all his might, launching himself towards Wang Sheng like an arrow released from a bow.

A distance of only five or six meters was nothing to Song Ming. He could easily jump that far from a standing position, let alone with a running start.

While still in the air, Song Ming made a grabbing motion towards Wang Sheng. As long as he could control Wang Sheng, he could survive in the Thousand Severance Ground, and perhaps even explore its mysteries, becoming famous throughout the world.

Wang Sheng was in the air, with no fierce beasts or means of resistance. The wonderful prospect made Song Ming smile as he leaped off the cliff. Just imagine how many people would later sing the legend of how Song Ming bravely leaped off the cliff to capture Wang Sheng at a critical moment. What an exciting future!

Unfortunately, the future is always unpredictable. Even a small deviation in the present can lead to a completely different future. When Song Ming saw the strange object suddenly appear in Wang Sheng's hand, his heart sank.

A Glock 17. Wang Sheng was using one hand to swing across the cliff with the help of the watch and high-molecular-weight rope, while the other hand pulled out a Glock 17 pistol.

Song Ming's recklessness in charging out surprised Wang Sheng, but not to the point of making him panic. This was a master, Wang Sheng had no doubt, so he aimed at Song Ming and fired without hesitation.

The first shot was aimed at the chest, the second at the eye. This was based on experience: the chest had a higher hit rate and could inflict some damage. The second shot was for the kill.

Bang! The first shot rang out. Song Ming was in the air, with no leverage, and could only take the shot head-on. At such close range, it hit him squarely in the chest.

Song Ming had already activated his spiritual energy to protect his body. Ordinary hidden weapons had no effect on him. Those with less power probably wouldn't even penetrate his clothes.

The nine-millimeter pistol bullet was powerful enough to pierce Song Ming's robe and even his skin, but it was stopped by Song Ming's muscles and bones.

Under the protection of a Fifth Realm master's spiritual energy, the nine-millimeter pistol bullet was almost immediately caught by the muscles and bounced back. If controlled properly, the injury to the skin wouldn't even bleed.

The pain from this shot made Song Ming fully understand the power of the hidden weapon in Wang Sheng's hand, and he felt relieved again. But with just this moment of carelessness, the second bullet pierced Song Ming's eyeball.

Song Ming was shocked and hurriedly mobilized his spiritual energy to protect his head. Fortunately, he activated his spiritual energy in time, and he also remained calm and unafraid. He slightly twisted his head, so the bullet's trajectory was no longer towards his brain, but instead collided with the nearby skull.

The collision between the bullet and the skull resulted in the victory of the skull. A Fifth Realm master's body had been strengthened to an incredible degree. Except for traditional weak spots like the eyes and mouth, other parts were almost as hard as steel. Even a close-range shot from a pistol bullet couldn't cause damage.

Even so, Song Ming instantly lost sight in one eye. The liquid flowing from his eyeball mixed with blood, quickly staining Song Ming's face a strange color.

Wang Sheng was startled and fired another shot without thinking. The third shot was aimed at Song Ming's other eye. This time, Song Ming was prepared and waved his arm, knocking the bullet away to an unknown location.

However, Song Ming never imagined that Wang Sheng never thought he could eliminate a super master who had been tracking him with just a Glock 17. All he wanted was to delay Song Ming's speed and escape Song Ming's possible control.

Song Ming had just charged off the cliff and taken three bullets in quick succession, inevitably affecting his movements. Wang Sheng was already retreating at high speed. When Song Ming missed three opportunities in a row to catch Wang Sheng, the outcome was already determined.

Song Ming's body inevitably fell towards the cliff. This was the law of nature, and no one was an exception, not even the Fifth Realm master Song Ming.

Watching his hand get further and further away from Wang Sheng, Song Ming's heart was filled with despair. He originally thought that a nobody like Wang Sheng would be helpless in the air and easy to capture, but who knew that Wang Sheng would have such a small hidden weapon. With one miscalculation, Song Ming could only watch himself fall into a deadly situation.

At a height of more than two hundred meters, it would take only seven seconds to fall, reaching a speed of seventy meters per second. Falling like this, even if he didn't die, he would break his arms and legs. In the Thousand Severance Ground, such an encounter would spell a certain end.

Song Ming himself was well aware of this. Knowing that he would die, he would no longer hold back against Wang Sheng. Since he was going to die, he would drag Wang Sheng down with him!

A cold light shot out from Song Ming's hand, heading straight for the upper part of the hand that Wang Sheng was using to hold the invisible rope. Wang Sheng must have some kind of strange rope that could bear his weight, so as long as he cut the rope, Wang Sheng's fate would be no better than his.

How could Wang Sheng give him such an opportunity? He raised his hand and fired the pistol again, directly hitting the cold light that Song Ming threw out.

Bang, bang! Two shots, both accurately hitting the blade that Song Ming sent out. One bullet had already changed the direction of the blade, and the second was a double insurance, directly sending the blade flying to an unknown location.

Not only Song Ming, but also Tang Ao and the three people who arrived later standing on the edge of the cliff saw this scene. Song Ming let out an unwilling scream, flailing his arms and legs as he crashed heavily towards the cliff below.
