Warrior’s Promise - Chapter 453

Chapter 453


Su Mo walked out of the Martial Will Valley, and Tian Chen followed behind .

"Eleventh Junior Brother, are you really going to fight Zheng Renjie to the death?" Tian Chen asked gravely .

"Definitely!" Su Mo nodded .

"How confident are you in defeating Zheng Renjie?" Tian Chen frowned as he asked softly .

He did not think that Su Mo would be able to defeat Zheng Renjie . After all, Zheng Renjie was of Lv 4 Enlightment Realm cultivation with a strong combat strength . Even someone like him would not be Zheng Renjie's match either .

He decided that if possible, he would stop Su Mo from heading into the fight . It would be better for Su Mo to work on raising his cultivation, then going forth to smash Zheng Renjie into pieces!

Su Mo paused for a moment, then replied, "I may not be absolutely confident that I will defeat him, but I will definitely not lose!"

Confidence was written all over Su Mo's face . Although he may not be Zheng Renjie's match in terms of strength, but after these few days of stabilizing his cultivation, he would be able to raise his cultivation further . It was not worth concerning himself with Zheng Renjie!

"Oh?" Tian Chen was slightly suprised, a curious flicker appearing in his eyes . He did not understand where Su Mo's confidence came from .

Soon, he nodded his head, and stopped pressing Su Mo further . Since Su Mo was so confident, there was no need for him to stand in his way . As for how the fight would unfold, he would know when the time came .

"Oh, Tenth Senior Brother, does the Celestialspirit Sect sell Beast Souls?" Su Mo asked Tian Chen .

"Beast Souls?"

Tian Chen quickly recovered from his surprised and nodded . "Of course, generally, only Pill-refining Masters would have a use for such things . You should head towards the Spiritual Treasure Palace of Great Heaven Peak!"

"Thanks, Tenth Senior Brother!" Su Mo thanked Tian Chen .

"No worries, Eleventh Junior Brother . Go on your way! I'll head back to Towering Sky Peak first . " Tian Chen brushed off his thanks with a wave of his hand, and then flew toward Towering Sky Peak .

Thereafter, Su Mo headed for Great Heaven Peak . He was planning to purchase Beast Souls to increase of the rank of his Devouring Martial Soul which at Rank 6 Earth Class, was just too low!

Su Mo soon arrived at Great Heaven Peak . As the main peak of Celestialspirit Sect, the peak was lively and busy, with many disciples coming and going, a sharp contrast against the desolate Towering Sky Peak .

Spiritual Treasure Palace stood on the mountainside of Great Heaven Peak, and it didn't take long for Su Mo to find out where it was located .

Spiritual Treasure Palace was a majestic hall with counters for selling all kinds of treasures . Other than those counters, there were many other stalls selling treasures .

Those stall owners were clearly disciples of Celestialspirit Sect .


Su Mo was amazed at the sight . It seemed like Spiritual Treasure Palace was not just a Palace for Celestialspirit Sect to sell treasures, but was also a trading center . As long as one was a part of Celestialspirit Sect, one would be free to set up a stall here .

Su Mo strolled through the Spiritiual Treasure Palace for a few moments before finding the counter selling Beast Souls .



He was overjoyed upon finding out that that this counter sold Beast Souls of almost all levels, from the most basic Lv 1 Beast Soul up to Lv 6 Beast Souls .

However, Lv 5 and Lv 6 Beast Souls were far too expensive, and with Su Mo's Devouring Martial Soul's current rank, he was unsure if it could devour Beast Souls of such high rank .

After all, a Lv 5 Beast Soul was equivalent to a demonic beast's soul at True Darkness Realm , while a Lv 6 Beast Soul was equivalent to a demonic beast's soul at Martial King Realm . This was far beyond the level of his Devouring Martial Soul .

Ultimately, Su Mo only purchased Lv 4 Beast Souls, Class 9 Lv 4 Beast Soul Crystals cost 3,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, or 3 million Lower Spiritual Stones each .

He purchased 1,000 Crystals, spending over 3 billion Lower Spiritual Stones . The price he paid really made his heart ache, it was too expensive!

After footing the bill, he was left with not even a billion Lower Spiritual Stones .

The price he paid may be high, but he only grumbled inwardly, as raising the level of his Martial Soul was his top priority .

After purchasing the Beast Souls, Su Mo returned to his lodgings at Towering Sky Peak .

"With a thousand Class 9 Lv 4 Beast Soul Crystals, I wonder how many ranks my Devouring Martial Soul will increase by?"

Su Mo was excited at the thought and started to devour the Crystals without any hesitation .

Pop!

As he took out the first Soul Crystal and crushed it, the Beast Soul trapped within rapidly grew larger and flew out with a loud roar .



It was a Wolf-shaped Demonic Beast, it pounced fiercely at Su Mo with its mouth wide open .

"Die!" Su Mo commanded, and then released his Devouring Martial Soul, quickly exerting its power .

It might have been reduced to a Beast Soul, but the Class 9 Lv 4 demonic beast was still powerful, frantically struggling and roaring even when enveloped by his devouring power .

Su Mo was not able to devour the Beast Soul even after some time had passed .

"I refuse to believe I can't devour you!"

Su Mo roared and exerted his Devouring Martial Soul to its maximum while also drawing on his sword will, with many invisible sword shadows stabbing at this Wolf-shaped Demonic Beast .

Finally, under the attack of the countless sword shadows, this Wolf-shaped Demonic Beast was no longer able to resist the devouring power, and was quickly devoured by Su Mo .

Whoosh!

Su Mo gave a sigh of relief . Thankfully, he had not purchased the Lv 5 Beast Souls, or he would not have been able to devour them .

Su Mo continued to devour the Beast Souls .

However, today's attempt at devouring Beast Souls was much slower and more difficult than before!



It took 6 hours before Su Mo devoured 300 Beast Souls, and his Devouring Martial Soul finally moved one rank up, with a seventh purple halo appearing to mark its promotion to Rank 7 Earth Class Martial Soul .

After his Martial Soul had moved one rank up, its devouring power intensified, and devouring those Class 9 Lv 4 Beast Souls became much easier .

After devouring another 400 odd Class 9 Lv 4 Beast Souls, his Martial Soul moved up the next rank again, and attained Rank 8 Earth Class .

Su Mo was pleased . These Class 9 Lv 4 Beast Souls were indeed good, their effectiveness hundreds of times better than those of Class 1 Lv 4 . Just 700 of such Beast Souls were enough for his Devouring Martial Soul to move up two ranks .

Devouring the remaining 200 odd Beast Souls became a whole lot easier to Su Mo, and he managed to devour them all in a matter of minutes .

Those 200 odd Beast Souls though, were not enough for his Martial Soul to advance to the next rank .

"I'll start working on my cultivation next, increasing my physical strength!"

Su Mo was not too disappointed, and started to prepare to devour Spiritual Stones . He would work on advancing his cultivation to Lv 2 Enlightment Realm, and his physical strength to the equivalent of Lv 4 Enlightment Realm, and only then would he be able to challenge Zheng Renjie . This was where his confidence came from .

If Zheng Renjie's strength was not powerful enough, Su Mo would definitely finish him off in the upcoming fight .

It had been more than two weeks since the last time he advanced two levels, and by this time, his cultivation had almost fully stabalized . It was now time to breakthrough to the next level .

"Burst!" Su Mo softly commanded, after taking out a large pile of Spiritual Stones, and immediately started to devour them .

Instantly, the entire room was filled with a dense Spiritual Qi that enveloped Su Mo completely .

After some time, everything returned back to normal, and all of the Spiritual Qi had vanished .
