Warrior’s Promise

Two months later, Su Mo went back to God’s Path and returned to the Firmament Palace at the Fifth Mountain.

He gathered the nine Palace Masters, Li Feng, Emperor Shi, and Xi’er together.

All of them came together, with Su Mo taking the main seat and them taking the seats below.

“Su Mo, have you decided to go to Deity Plane?” Emperor Shi asked solemnly.

“Yes!” Su Mo nodded. He had told them about his decision.

“Su Mo, do you have the confidence to break through the Space Boundary?” Li Feng asked as it was not the time yet for the array to change its base. The Space Boundary was powerful and it was not easy to break through.

“No problem!” Su Mo sighed and said. Although he had no idea how powerful the Space Boundary was, given his strength, he should be able to breakthrough.

After all, there were records of powerful Empty Gods who had broken through the Space Boundary and entered Deity Plane.

Back then, Di Yihun had done it as well.

If the other Empty Gods could do it, Su Mo believed that he could do so as well.

Moreover, he had the Unbeatable Power Primordial Spirit, which he had not merged with his Spiritual Soul. He could merge it to enhance his strength if he was still not powerful enough to break through the Space Boundary.

“Brother Su Mo, you must be extra careful when you reach Deity Plane!” Xi’er said, looking worried. She knew that Di Yihun was waiting for Su Mo at the Deity Plane!

“Don’t worry. Without the Celestial Spiritual Seal, Di Yihun can’t locate me when I am there.” Su Mo said with a smile.

He would not have the courage to go to the Deity Plane if the Celestial Spiritual Seal was still in him.

“Su Mo, don’t worry and just go. When the array of the Deity Plane changes its base and the Space Boundary has weakened, we will go and look for you at Deity Plane!” Jiang Fengran said.

“Great. You must work hard on your cultivation!”

Su Mo nodded and, after pondering for a while, he said, “There are a few things I need you to take note of!”

“Go ahead and tell us!” Si Kongyan and the rest said.

“First of all, replicate the Master Slavery Seal that is used to control the Sky Tyrant Clan and make three. Five of you shall take charge of the Sky Tyrant Clan. In the future, even when you leave, you must pass down the Master Seal. We must not let Sky Tyrant Clan have the opportunity to overthrow us. Secondly, get the men from the Sky Tyrant Clan to station themselves at the entrance of God’s Path to receive our men from the Infinite Region. Thirdly, when the array changes its base, let Li Ba go to the Deity Plane. Don’t stop him. Fourthly, take good care of Firmament Palace!”

Su Mo passed down the instructions as they were important.

First of all, after he left Firmament Palace, no one had to be afraid of the men from the Sky Tyrant Clan as they had the Slavery Seal. As a safety precaution, they had to have a few more Master Slavery Seals.

Secondly, there would be more men from the Firmament Palace in Infinite Region who would be entering God’s Path. They had to get ready to receive them.

Hai Mingjiang, Master Qian Fu Ge, Luo Qianfan, and Su Mo’s father, Su Hong, had high cultivation levels. A few years later, they would come to God’s Path.

As for Li Ba, it would be safer to let him go to God’s Path since Su Mo would not be around. If he became desperate, he might pose a threat to Firmament Palace.

“Su Mo, don’t worry. We will take note of the things that you have mentioned!”

Si Kongyan, Cai Yun, Qing Ya, and Long Teng responded.

Firmament Palace did not belong solely to Su Mo. It was theirs as well and thus they would do their best to protect it.

“Su Mo, after we have replicated the Master Seal, who shall we give to?” Li Feng asked.

After Su Mo had pondered for a while, he said, “Father-in-law is the Palace Master so he should have one. Xi’er will have one, and the last one is to be given to my son after he comes to God’s Path.”

Su Mo was selfish. He had left the Master Seals to his wife, son, and father-in-law.

However, no one was unhappy about it. After all, it made no difference to them who had the Master Seals.

“Lastly, I want you to know that I will be waiting for you at the Deity Plane!” Su Mo said loudly as he looked around.

“Su Mo, don’t worry. When the array changes its base and the power of the Space Boundary weakens, I will definitely go to the Deity Plane to look for you!” Si Kongyan replied.

“We will definitely be there!”

“We will catch up with you!”

“We hope that you will continue to enhance your strength in Deity Plane and destroy Di Yihun!”

All of them spoke, and they were filled with confidence and anticipation.

Xi’er was the exception. She looked sad. She had just been reunited with Su Mo and they already had to part. She had no idea when they would meet again and there was a possibility that they might never meet again.

“By the way, when the array changes its base, you must dissolve Firmament Palace as Di Yihun may come to the Lower Plane!” Su Mo added. He had to be cautious.

If Di Yihun came to the Lower Plane and could not find him, he might take his anger out on Firmament Palace.

“Alright!” All of them nodded and took note of it.

Su Mo did not say another word. He stood up and got ready to leave.

“Brother Su Mo, take care!” Xi’er stood up, looking reluctant. She was sad and reproached herself.

She had been married to Su Mo for so many years but she had not borne him any children. However, Mu Li, whom she had not met, had given him a son.

Whoosh!

In a flash, Su Mo landed in front of Xi’er. In front of the rest of the people, he held Xi’er in his arms.

“Take care! Trust me, we will meet again. We will have many children then!” Su Mo said softly. He knew that Xi’er was troubled by it.

“Hmm!” Xi’er nodded.

Su Mo then let go of Xi’er and looked at everyone. He cupped his fist and said, “Gentlemen, take care!”

“Su Mo, we will meet again!”

“Su Mo, take care!”

“Be careful!”

“…”

Everyone spoke and they looked solemn.

“Su Mo, I believe that the Deity Plane will change because of you!” Si Kongyan said. He had confidence in Su Mo.

“Haha, Si Kongyan, thank you!”

Su Mo laughed. In a flash, he left the hall and flew up to the sky.

After taking a good look at the area, Su Mo left. He flew at lightning speed toward the Space Boundary.

He no longer had any worries since he had put everything into place.

His next task would be to deal with Di Yihun and see who would have the last laugh.

There was another Split-Soul in the Deity Plane by the name of Tuoba Qingyun. Su Mo had no idea if Di Yihun had merged with him.

Si Kongyan, Emperor Shi, and the rest of them did not send Su Mo off as they could not go near the Space Boundary. Su Mo had asked them not to do so as well.

Su Mo was quick and he had no one to talk to on the way. A few hours later, he arrived at the place where he had cultivated previously. It was only some distance away from the Space Boundary.

Although his cultivation level had enhanced, he still felt great pressure when he was there.

Su Mo continued his journey. Although he had activated the Chaotic Energy to protect his body, his speed had slowed down tremendously.

When he was around 16 kilometers away from the Space Boundary, he stopped flying.

He could feel the tremendous pressure from a distance.

Great power emitted perpetually from the Space Boundary. Although the Space Boundary looked ordinary, its power was mightier than the most powerful blow that could be thrown out by a Rank 4 Empty God.

The power of the Space Boundary was like a tidal wave. It continued to lash out at Su Mo’s body and there was no way for Su Mo to avoid it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It continued to thunder as Su Mo’s body shook. He had activated the power of the Blood Force and Chaotic Dark Force to fend against the power of the Space Boundary.

The nearer I get, the closer I am to success!

Su Mo took a deep breath and flew toward the Space Boundary. The pressure continued to increase as he went nearer to the Space Boundary.

He had activated the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit to form a powerful sword formation to protect his body.

The fiery sword formation smashed the power of the Space Boundary that was before him.

Soon, Su Mo stopped flying. The Space Boundary was around 300 meters away from him.

The Space Boundary was a grey shield. It had separated everything from the Deity Plane, which was on the other side.

If one did not possess the strength of a Holy Sage, he could not reach the Space Boundary.

Although Su Mo’s strength had surpassed that of the Holy Sages, he still had to withstand great pressure.

Buzz!

Su Mo held the Purple Virtual Sword in his hand, with the Chaotic Energy circling around it. Without hesitation, he slashed out hard with his sword.

Boom!

There was an explosion when the Sword Qi hit the Space Boundary. The Sword Qi burst and turned into Sword Rain, and shot out in all directions.

The Space Boundary fluctuated slightly, but there were no cracks formed.

It is indeed powerful! Su Mo looked grave. However, he was merely testing it with the earlier blow. He had not used all his might.

Buzz!

Su Mo lifted the sword in his hand again and the terrifying aura in his body surged.
