Su Mo sat cross-legged on the 9th floor of the Thick Earth Pavilion, continuing to cultivate his Dark Force in such a enormous gravity realm.
After a period of practice, his had established a good grounding of Dark Force cultivation.
However, there was still a long way to go in devouring Spiritual Qi and breaking through realm barriers.
Breaking through the Martial Royal Realm was much harder than in the Martial King Realm.
Su Mo meditated and cultivated strenuously. He had no idea that his efforts had caused a magnitude 10 earthquake in the Firmament World.
Emperor Xuan Palace was holding an emergency meeting.
All the top officials of the palace converged in the Conference Hall.
Di Shi, donned in a brocaderobe, was seated with a solemn face and deep eyes. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
“Palace Master, the news said that the hegemonic force—Firmament Palace—which was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago, appeared once again. Su Mo is its successor!” An elder reported to Di Shi respectfully.
“I know!” Di Shi said blankly, nodding his head.
Some other high-level leaders had already known as well and had mixed emotions.
Nobody had expected that Su Mo had such a hidden card.
After a bit, Di Shi looked at Hua Taishan and asked, “The First Elder, what do you think?”
Hua Taishan’s face was grim. After a pause, he murmured with a sigh, “It’s no wonder he grew at an inconceivable speed if he was supported by Firmament Palace!”
“Get to the point!” Di Shi said, shaking his head.
“Alright!”
Hua Taishan nodded and stated, ” The Firmament Palace is exceptional. Although it has perished for countless years, it is said that it has retained a number of mighty Legacies. It chooses to return before the Trial Testers’ advent, which apparently means Su Mo is poised to fight for world domination.”
Every time before the arrival of the Trial Testers, the Firmament World was filled with turmoil. Super powers yearned to integrate all the strength in the Firmament World to fight against Trial Testers.
So did Su Mo.
All the people were in full agreement with the First Elder, nodding their heads.
There were less than 10 years left before the arrival of the Trial Testers. Intense clashes rumbled beneath a usually placid surface in the Firmament World.
The Emperor Xuan Palace also cherished the idea to integrate the whole world’s forces, but it was not strong enough to do this.
If ever there was a person who possessed such capacity in the Firmament World, it was Netherworld Devil Sect.
However, even Netherworld Devil Sect would have a tough time.
Powers in the world had basically been passed on for a long time, so no one was willing to be swallowed up.
Cooperation was acceptable, but integration was impossible!
Hua Taishan continued after a break, “The appearance of Firmament Palace is bound to shock the whole world. What we should do is see if changes occur.”
“Su Mo is a disciple of my Firmament Palace, so the Firmament Palace ought to be merged into the Emperor Xuan Palace.” another elder stood up and refuted.
“Exactly! We helped Su Mo at the last battle of Jade Cloud Lake at expense of over 200 Martial Royal Realm cultivators. Su Mo should reward the Emperor Xuan Palace with Firmament Palace’s inner power!” another elder announced.
“Elder Xue is right!”
“I agree with Elder Xue and Elder Zhao.”
Everybody was in favor of the two elders’ words.
After hearing what they said, Di Shi remained expressionless with contemplative eyes.
A few moments later, he gazed at the 13th Elder and asked, “The 13th Elder, you are Su Mo’s Master, so what do you think?”
The 13th Elder was silent for a moment and replied, clasping his fists, “My Palace Master, Su Mo is tough and acts decisively. We’d better not compel him for any purpose.”
Although the 13th Elder had not known Su Mo for a long time, he knew a lot about Su Mo. Rising from an unknown martial artist of Sunnywood City to fame, Su Mo entirely relied on his perseverance.
“I understand!”
Di Shi nodded slightly. He had had an idea, regarding others’ opinion just as a reference.
Then, Di Shi ordered with a clear voice, “The 13th Elder, please take some people to check the actual circumstance of the Firmament Palace. Additionally, if you come across Su Mo, pass on a message to him.”
“What message, my Palace Master?” the 13th Elder asked and gave a bow.
“Tell Su Mo that Xi’er has reached the age of marriage, and her appointment with Shangguan Hao has already been cancelled. I can consider him if he cherishes Xi’er.” Di Shi said calmly.
The crowd was in amazement. The Palace Master wanted Su Mo to propose marriage!
That was reasonable. Shangguan Hao had disappeared without a trace since the affair in Fighting Spirits’ Plane.
Now, only Su Mo and Xi’er were well suited for each other.
As long as Su Mo and Xi’er got married, everything would be right by then.
Firmament Palace’s inner power would become Emperor Xuan Palace’s inner power.
“Yes, my Palace Master!” the 13th Elder responded.
He then left the Emperor Xuan Palace with more than 10 elders.
The meeting did not last long, and the high-level members of the Emperor Xuan Palace all left.
Di Shi frowned slightly in the main seat, lost in thought.
“The Firmament Palace? Su Mo, I have underestimated you!” Di Shi muttered.
He knew the Firmament Palace very well, for he had obtained its Legacy and used to be a disciple of it.
…
In the meantime, the Sky-sea Pavilion’s Conference Hall was holding a emergency meeting and extremely crowded.
The rebirth of Firmament Palace shook the Sky-sea Pavilion completely.
However, the man who sat in the main seat was not Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian, but an old man with a skinny face.
He was the Pavilion Leader of the Sky-sea Pavilion.
Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian sat on the right side of the lean old man.
At this time, Deputy Hall Chief Hu from the Craftsmanship Hall was stating slowly, complaining about the relationship between he and Su Mo.
“Pavilion Leader, this is what happened between Su Mo and our Sky-sea Pavilion!”
After a long time, Deputy Hall Chief Hu told Pavilion Leader every whit about Su Mo.
“According to what you said, Su Mo is an affectionate person!” Pavilion Leader said with a low voice and nodded faintly.
“That’s right. Su Mo, a man of commitment, once challenged the Holy Son of the Emperor Xuan Palace by feeble strength for a girl. Inconceivably, he succeeded in defeating the Holy Son!” Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian said.
“His talent was too terrible to describe!”
“He seems to have a Master who is an Imperial Craftsman and is able to refine Natal Spiritual Swords.”
“His cultivation of craftsmanship is not low as well!”
“This young man may have a capacity for reviving the Firmament Palace!”
Plenty of the high-level members of the Sky-sea Pavilion were all discussing Su Mo’s extraordinary facets.
Pavilion Leader’s eyes lit up on hearing others’ words. He stared at Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian and said, “Qian, prepare a handsome gift right now. We are going to celebrate the Firmament Palace’s birth!”
“Okay, my Pavilion Leader!” Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian replied with a nod.
