Warrior’s Promise

Su Mo took a deep breath and sighed that someone on the List of Top 100 Talents from the Blackdragon Domain had even reached Lv 8 True Spirit Realm.

From this perspective, talents in the other three major domains, which were the Dark Domain, Thunder Domain, and Cloud Domain, had to be stronger than the talents from the Blackdragon Domain. Especially the Dark Domain, the biggest and also the center of the East Continent, had to have many talents with horribly powerful strength.

Su Mo looked dignified because his current strength was not sufficient to fight over the treasure with those high-level talents.

After Hu Yuanlong had arrived, he ignored the crowd and stood alone near the entrance, observing Skygale Valley.

“Before, Hu Yuanlong had ranked eighth on the List of Top 100 Talents. I heard that he ranks third this time!”

“Correct! His cultivation has reached Middle Lv 8 True Spirit Realm. He’s extremely mighty!”

“…”

Su Mo had learned something about Hu Yuanlong from the whispers of the crowd.

Those who knew Hu Yuanlong were either super talents from the Blackdragon Domain or talents on the previous List of Top 100 Talents who had been here before.

After Hu Yuanlong’s arrival, the clamor continued to resound. Three talents who were equal in strength to Hu Yuanlong had arrived soon after.

Fang Qingyun, who ranked sixth on the List of Top 100 Talents in the Dark Domain.

Jiang Xian, who ranked third on the List of Top 100 Talents in the Thunder Domain.

Li Hai, who ranked fourth on the List of Top 100 Talents in the Cloud Domain.

Fang Qingyun was a rare beauty dressed in blue. She had a beautiful body and a delicate face.

Jiang Xian was a handsome white-faced master with a graceful bearing, while Li Hai had a stalwart stature and dark skin.

The three were all at Lv 8 True Spirit Realm and were super talents from the four major domains.

Hu Yuanlong and the other three were like cranes standing among chickens, shining brilliantly and attracting everyone’s attention. Compared to them, Su Mo and the others were dim and dark.

After the four top-tier talents had arrived, they stared at Skygale Valley with keen eyes, waiting for the Skygale to decline.

“Oh?”

Suddenly, Su Mo raised an eyebrow, turned his head, and looked into the sky in surprise. He felt an extremely sharp Sword Qi approaching from the sky.

“Swish!”

After a few breaths, Su Mo saw a cyan sword radiance land on a slope outside the valley.

The sword radiance dimmed, revealing the figure inside it. It was a cyan-robed youth with a long cyan sword on his back. He was handsome and spirited, and his eyes, which fell on people and stung their skin, were as sharp as an eagle’s.

An extremely strong Sword Qi surrounded him, slicing the space around him into pieces.

He immediately drew people’s attention, including the four super talents, whose countenances had changed with their eyes full of seriousness and fear.

“This one is mighty. He must be a top-tier swordsman!”

Wu Sheng and the others also stared at the cyan-robed youth closely. Wu Sheng was also a swordsman and he among all could feel the extraordinariness of the youth.

“Another Lv 8 True Spirit Realm expert!” Su Mo murmured. Moreover, this one had reached Peak Lv 8 True Spirit Realm, making his Qi stronger than the other four.

At this moment, people started to talk about him in a low voice.

“Holy sh*t! He’s second on the List of Top 100 Talents in the Dark Domain, Yuwen Jun.”

“It’s said that Yuwen Jun can struggle to fight against a strong Lv 1 Enlightenment Realm martial artist!”

“Such a dense Sword Qi, no wonder he’s the second best expert in the strongest domain!”

Yuwen Jun ignored the discussion of the crowd and kept looking calmly at the unstoppable wind blades in the valley.

Looking around the crowd, Han Qianze said seriously to Wu Sheng and the others, “Guys, we’d better join forces in there. Otherwise, we don’t stand a chance with these experts!”

The others fell silent. Their strength was unmatched among the younger generation in the Hong Domain, but was very low here.

Han Qianze, Wu Sheng, and Han Yijian were at Lv 4 True Spirit Realm, while Zhu Shaojing and the others were only at Peak Lv 3 True Spirit Realm.

This level of strength was even not worth mentioning among the talents from the other domains.

The crowd paid no attention to their presence at all.

Therefore, they had to join forces to share a slight chance of getting the 10,000-year Stalactite.

“Su Mo, you’re the strongest among us, let’s join…!” Before he finished his words, Han Yijian suddenly stared agape at Su Mo.

“Su Mo, you… you broke through?” Han Yijian asked in disbelief, while the others were also astounded.

They had not noticed the change of Su Mo’s cultivation until now because his Qi was extremely restrained.

They were dumbstruck and could not figure it out. It had been only two days since they entered the Firmament Divine Realm, and Su Mo’s cultivation had leveled up!

“Yes, I did!” Su Mo nodded casually because he thought that it was normal.

However, the others did not think so. Although they were talents, it was tough for them to level up at their current cultivation. If they cultivated normally, it would take them at least two years to break through their cultivation.

They sighed in their hearts. Su Mo was indeed a talent who had defeated Ao Wushuang, and his luck and talent were beyond compare.

Afterward, Su Mo had a short chat with them and agreed to join them. He then sat cross-legged on a big rock nearby.

He had to charge his Nirvana Sword Qi and cultivate before the Skygale declined.

After all, there were so many experts and his strength fell far behind. On the other hand, he had to get the 10,000-year Stalactite.

As for collaborating with Wu Sheng and the others, whose strength was rather weak, he thought that they might be helpful in some critical situation.

Su Mo condensed his Nirvana Sword Qi while arousing his Devouring Martial Soul, and strips of Spiritual Qi around were drawn toward him. He then operated his Elephant’s Strength Skill, strengthening his body.

Only by cultivating physical strength could he improve his strength in a short time because he had reached Peak Lv 5 True Spirit Realm and it was impossible to level up again in a short time.

During his cultivating, he had also been listening to the crowd and getting to know about this place.

It turned out that their current location was only the outer Firmament Divine Realm, while where they had to get the Legacy was in the Firmament Palace.

In ancient times, the Firmament Palace was a superpower of the Firmament and Continent, which had been demolished for countless years.

The gate of the Firmament Palace was hidden deep in the void and only showed up once every three years when the Top-100-talent Competitions of every domain in the East Continent took place.

Now, there were only less than 10 days left until its appearance.
