Warrior’s Promise

“Phantom Avatar, a special secret method. It is not restricted by any cultivation. One can cultivate into three avatars.”

“If you cultivate to the entrance realm, every Phantom Avatar can explode at 30% of your strength, if to the Minor Completion Realm, at 50%, if to the Great Completion Realm, at 70%, and if to the Grand Completion realm, at 90%.”

After reading the scroll introduction, Su Mo was shocked. He did not expect that this scroll was neither about cultivation nor martial arts techniques, but a secret manual which was far more valuable.

“As compared to Nine Spirals Mystique, this Phantom Avatar is just as good. If I succeed in cultivating this scroll, I can fight people with a fourfold combating force!” 

Su Mo smiled. Although this was not a cultivating scroll nor martial arts techniques, it was far more valuable.

Shortly after, Su Mo kept the Phantom Avatar scroll. Right now, he had to break through to the True Spirit of Realm.

Soon, Su Mo found a hidden place.

It was dilapidated building, half of which had already collapsed. Su Mo found himself a place to sit down.

In order to break through from the Spiritual Martial Realm into the True Spirit Realm, a martial artist needed to evolve his internal genuine Qi to a Genuine Vitality. This process was slow. But so long as he had sufficient Spiritual Qi as support, this process could be shortened.

However, Su Mo was different from Others who only needed to evolve one block of Spiritual Spiral genuine Qi to step into the True Spirit Realm.

Su Mo had nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral, and hence, he needed to evolve nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral genuine Qi, which was so much tougher as compared to other people.

Of course, Su Mo could also disperse eight blocks of Spiritual Spiral, leaving only one block, so that it would be easier for him to step into the True Spirit Realm.

Nevertheless, Su Mo apparently would not want to do that, for the nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral were the foundation of his powerful strength. If he were to evolve into the True Spirit Realm based on the nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral, he could still battle beyond his realm effortlessly.

Crash!

Su Mo took out a small heap of Spiritual Stones and started to activate his internal Martial Soul to devour the Spiritual Stones.

He dared not take out too many Spiritual Stones because he could not control the devouring power of the Devouring Martial Spirit. If he engulfed too many at the same time, he could die a violent death.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The devouring power swept over everywhere, attracting Spiritual Stones, causing them to fly towards Su Mo.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

All the Spiritual Stones exploded immediately. A horrifying Spiritual Qi evolved into a dense spirit mist surrounding Su Mo entirely.

It was as if the massive Spiritual Qi had spirituality as they desperately drilled into Su Mo’s body.

Inside Su Mo’s body, the Spiritual Qi was roaring and the nine blocks of Spiritual Spirals started boiling up.

It took only a few moments for Su Mo’s nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral’s genuine Qi to reach the limit of the Spiritual Martial Realm. Su Mo immediately controlled the nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral, desperately compressing his internal genuine Qi.

As the genuine Qi was compressed, those Spiritual Spiral decreased but the density increased.

At the same time, Su Mo took out another volume of Spiritual stones and continued to devour. Massive Spiritual Qi was constantly importing into the Spiritual Spiral.

This process was consuming Spiritual Qi, during which the genuine Qi was constantly supported to be converted into the Genuine Vitality

Time passed slowly.

Two days and two nights had passed. Su Mo had already consumed over hundred thousands of Lower Spiritual Stones. His nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral’s genuine Qi had been compressed to the limit and turned into viscous genuine Qi fluid.

At this moment, at the bottom of the nine blocks of Spiritual Spiral, a pale grayish white gas started to form. It was too little, not even a thousandth of the genuine Qi fluid.

This grayish white gas was the particular Genuine Vitality of martial artists of the True Spirit Realm.

Su Mo was delighted. He managed to condense a trace of Genuine Vitality, which meant that he had taken an affirmative step toward the True Spirit Realm. His current cultivation can be considered as half of a True Spirit Realm martial artist.

Soon after, Su Mo heightened his focus and continued to refine his cultivation.

Another two days passed. Su Mo consumed another over hundred thousands of Lower Spiritual Stones, refining the genuine Qi fluid in his nine Spiritual Spirals into 1% Genuine Vitality.

“Puff!”

Su Mo suddenly stopped cultivating and opened his mouth to let out a mouthful of turbidity.

“It’s too slow!” 

Su Mo creased his brows. If he were to continue refining this way, even if he had infinite Spiritual Stones, he would still need to take more than three months to step into the True Spirit Realm.

“In this case, how can I search for treasures? By the time this finishes the Ethereal Territory will be closed!” 

This was due to the nine Spiritual Spirals. If there was only one Spiritual Spiral, Su Mo would be able to step into the True Spirit Realm within 10 days.

“No! I Still need to kill. Devouring a True Spirit Realm martial artist’s Genuine Vitality directly definitely would be several times faster,” Su Mo ground his teeth and mumbled.

At present, Su Mo would not stress on being benevolent anymore. In this world where only the strong would be respected, being benevolent would get him killed faster.

Shortly after, Su Mo left the place without any hesitation.

“Stop!”

When Su Mo just walked out of the hidden place, a young man garbed in a black robe flew down and was in his way.

He was ruthless-looking and his eyes shone with a brutal glow.

“Young man, whatever treasure you’ve got here, hand it all over!” The young man stared at Su Mo and ordered.

“You came at just the right time!” Su Mo laughed, for he was just about to go hunting for prey. This martial artist was only at Lv 2 True Spirit Realm and had actually considered robbing him.

As of now, although Su Mo only attained half the True Spirit Realm cultivation, not fully stepping into the True Spirit Realm yet, his overall strength had elevated more than two or three times.

Even if the opponent was extraordinarily powerful, Su Mo was fearless.

“What do you mean?” The man was slightly surprised upon hearing Su Mo.

“A dying man doesn’t need to know!” After speaking, Su Mo launched his attack. His whole body was glowing in golden, and a sharp sword radiance splitting the heaven and earth was slashed toward the young man’s head.

With only one strike, Su Mo had exploded his combat strength to the peak, even activating his Martial Soul.

Although the influence of the Devouring Martial Spirit was not impactful to a Lv 3 True Spirit Realm martial artist, a Lv 2 True Spirit Realm martial artist would not get rid of that.

“Ah!”

The sword radiance flashed and a scream was heard. The young man did not expect Su Mo to explode suddenly. He did not have the chance to defend himself and was killed by Su Mo.

After killing him, Su Mo immediately activated his Devouring Martial Spirit to devour his blood essence as well as his Genuine Vitality.

The young man actually had a Rank 1 Earth Class Martial Soul and was promptly devoured by Su Mo.

Massive Genuine Vitality and blood essence were absorbed into Su Mo, instantly boiling Su Mo’s Genuine Vitality in his nine blocks of Spiritual Spirals.

After the young man’s Genuine Vitality was refined, and it then melted into Su Mo’s nine blocks of Spiritual Spirals and integrated with the spiritual fluid.

It was only over 10 breaths of time that the young man was sucked dry. Su Mo’s internal Genuine Vitality was increased more than 10 times, and the spiritual fluid in his Spiritual Spiral had evolved 10% into Genuine Vitality.

This was because the young man’s Genuine Vitality was different from Su Mo’s Genuine Vitality. After refining, Su Mo could only integrate less than half of the remaining Genuine Vitality.

“Haha! That was fast!” Su Mo was delighted and could not help laughing.

Such a high speed. If he could devour a few more martial artists at the Lv 2 True Spirit Realm, he would almost be abe to step into the True Spirit Realm.

At this rate, his cultivation would be progressed thousand of times faster as compared to if he devoured Spiritual Stones and refined the Genuine Vitality himself.

“Let’s kill!” Su Mo grabbed his sword and dashed forward.
