Warrior’s Promise

“Oh no!”

Long Cang was stunned as Gu Ling’s head moved away hastily.

Even he was unable to take a blow from Long Xun. However, Gu Ling did it!

Long Xun’s heart sank when he saw Gu Ling’s escape. Being a master of the Empty God Realm’s Fourth Level, he was unable to kill the enemy who possessed the equivalence of the Empty God Realm’s Third Level, he was slightly embarrassed.

“You can’t escape!”

At the same instance, Su Mo delivered a blow. He was wearing a cold expression on his face.

The Devouring Energy Fighting Soul rose and its mighty power surged into the skies.

The spread of the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul was far-reaching and speedy. It engulfed the skies within a radius of million miles in a flash.

Gu Ling’s head was also engulfed by the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul. It retreated and flew towards Su Mo.

“How could this be?”

Gu Ling let out a terrifying and ferocious cry, his head struggled crazily.

However, Gu Ling was left with only a skull, it was impossible for him to defend himself against the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul.

In a short span of time, Gu Ling’s head was devoured by the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul.

Su Mo retrieved the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul. He closed his eyes gently and went into the act of assimilating his prowess.

Gu Ling was no ordinary warrior. Upon being devoured, if there was no urgency to assimilate, the outcome of being devoured by it would be disastrous.

“Hateful!”

Within the pitch-black abyss in the Devouring Maelstrom, Gu Ling’s skull let out a fiery roar as he felt a sense of a horrifying and eerie force attacking and eroding him. The force had intended to destroy his wisdom and devastate his spiritual soul.

Gu Ling was very regretful at this moment. If he had known about Long Xun’s return, he would not have remained within the Infinite Region. He should have left the region.

If it had not been for Long Xun, it would have been impossible for the duo Su Mo and Long Cang to have captured him.

“Let’s see how long you can last!” Su Mo’s steely voice sounded in the Devouring Maelstrom.

He activated the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul to continue to harvest Gu Ling.

The scene of Su Mo’s devouring Gu Ling had still remained a terrifying sight in Long Cang’s mind.

Su Mo had both martial prowess and ability. Long Cang was quite intimidated.

Bai Tiannan was expressionless as he watched Su Mo kept the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul. His eyes glistened with a glint.

Swoosh!

Long Xun flew back to where Su Mo stood, he wore a complicated look on his face as he looked Su Mo up and down.

He had just experienced the power of the Devouring Energy Fighting Soul, it was an eerie and overbearing encounter. Although the force was not exactly strong, the effect was exceedingly impactful.

“Our little friend is gifted beyond what we can imagine!”

Long Xun commented with a solemn tone. Such Devouring Energy resembled Devouring Heaven Saint Souls. However, he was clearly aware that what Su Mo had was not any mere Devouring Heaven Saint Soul.

However, it resembled a legendary Devouring Energy.

Long Xun was contemplative. He might be onto something.

Su Mo did not reply. After a few moments, he opened his eyes, Gu Ling had been assimilated by Su Mo. Despite the skill that still remained, it was only an empty shell.

“Elders, where are the Sorcerer’s Tribe?”

Su Mo glanced at Long Xun’s trio and asked in a gruff voice. Even though he had assimilated Gu Ling’s spiritual soul, he had failed to track down the Sorcerer’s Tribe.

“On Gu Ling’s body, there are a few Spacial Devices. Just now they are destroyed when I am practising my dragon breath. Now everything is gone!” Long Cang answered.

His dragon breath was powerful enough to destroy all the Upper Sage Class Weapons easily. It could even ruin Gu Ling’s specially refined body. Not to mention Spacial Devices.

“That’s brilliant!” Su Mo was relieved. Once the Sorcerer’s Tribe perished, he would have one less worry.

“Elder Long Xun, I will entrust the True Demon Tribe to your good hands!” Su Mo looked at Long Xun.

The matter of the Sorcerer’s Tribe was resolved, which left the matter of the True Demon Tribe. All hoped that Long Xun was able to resolve things smoothly!

“No need to worry about the True Demon Tribe. I shall go over to look for Jiu Yang!” Long Xun waved his hand. He did not linger for long, he greeted Long Cang and soon both of them left together.

Long Xun and Long Cang left. Only Su Mo and Bai Tiannan remained.

“Su Mo, do settle your matters as soon as possible. After that, come look for me at the Myriad Worlds Mountain. I shall wait for you!” Bai Tiannan approached Su Mo and cautioned him.

Upon hearing the advice, Su Mo was quiet. “Brother Bai, I need to make a trip to the Dark Region, I am afraid I may not be able to accompany you!”

The Dark Region had the Sky Tyrant Clan as a hidden danger. If he did not see to it, he would be unable to leave.

Su Mo regarded the Firmament Sect as his home. It had his family, friends and everything he owned.

He would only leave once he was able to ensure the safety of the Firmament Sect.

Moreover, Gongcheng Tai Hao was still in the Dark Region. He naturally was reluctant to give up on him.

“Go to the Dark Region?” Bai Tannan frowned when he heard this. If Su Mo had decided to go to the Dark Region, he might be delayed for quite a while.

It could be two years or even a much longer time.

“Yes, I have to handle some enemies and settle our vengeance!” Su Mo nodded in reply.

Bai Tiannan was reticent, he was aware of the feud between Su Mo and Li Zun. Otherwise Li Zun would not be visiting the Infinite Region.

“Alright, once you have settled everything, do come to the God’s Path. I shall arrange for someone to welcome you at the First Mountain!” After a long quiet pause, Bai Tiannan resigned and nodded. He did not wish to put Su Mo in a difficult position.

After all, Su Mo’s prowess was comparable to his and he would rather seek a compromise.

“Oh yes, Brother Bai, where is the entrance to the God”s Path? Can the Infinite Region lead directly to God’s Path?” Su Mo inquired.

He was unfamiliar with the God’s Path and was clueless as to the location of the First Mountain.

“Su Mo, I have to say this, you have a limited understanding of this universe, and are quite far removed from many happenings!” Bai Tannan shook his head and chuckled.

“Please enlighten me, brother!” Su Mo implored modestly.

“Sure!”

Bai Tiannan nodded gently, he thought quietly and spoke: “The Chaotic Universe is comprised of four galaxies, the multiplication of the Martial Paths takes place after its genesis billions of years ago, when countless martial masters were born. When we are at the Primordial Age, the Marital Path will have already attained its peak form.

During that era, numerous martial masters emerged from the Chaotic Universe, they were like the precious sons of Heaven. The martial practitioners in the Empty God Realm were like the lowly ants.

Several super talents such as the Ancient Demon Elder, the Chaotic Archosaur, the Chaos God Emperor etc, they were arrogant and obnoxious.

However, once these Archean Martial Masters peaked at the Martial Path, they were stagnant as they felt constrained by the rules of the universe.

In order to break the rules without bringing harm to the universe, many Archean martial masters used the universe as the platform and the stars as the seeds to construct a brand new world, which was the Deity Plane!”

Bai Tiannan explained slowly to unravel the myth of the Archean Region!

“What? The Deity Plane was created by the Archean Martial Masters?” Su Mo was flabbergasted by what he had heard. His pupils dilated.

Those Archean Martial Masters had already possessed the ability to create the Deity Plane.

He had long thought that the Deity Plan was within the Spirit World and it was the world that had overridden above the universe. Little did he know that the Deity Plane was in fact created by humans.

“Of course, I bet you already knew that there were many stars in the Infinite Region. These include the towering colourful flag which supports the Deity Plane. There are a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine of them, erected in all the four galaxies!” Bai Tiannan continued. At this point, his face showed his mixed emotions.

The methods the Archean Top Powers had used remained unrevealed to them.

“The Colourful Flag?” Su Mo’s eyes widened with realisation. No wonder there were the colourful flags planted on many stars.

Those colourful flags were absorbing the auras of Heaven and Earth, reducing most stars to wasted stars.
