On the battlefield outside of Guanwu City, Su Mo and hundreds of disciples of the four sects were rapidly taking the lives of Ironforest soldiers.
Countless Martial Souls floated towards where Su Mo was standing and then disappeared.
Everywhere he went, blood would dry up or turn into liquid drained of energy.
The entire battlefield was a chaotic mess. Broken limbs, spewing blood, and bodyless Martial Souls were everywhere.
No one noticed Su Mo’s actions.
His Martial Soul was getting stronger, and his cultivation was increasing.
Energy surged through his veins.
He also devoted attention to converting Blood Qi into genuine Qi, eventually incorporating this into the four Spiritual Spirals in his elixir field.
However, since Su Mo was afraid to devour limitlessly, his cultivation was increasing much slower than the time he’d massacred the Bloody Blade Stockade on Sirius Mountain.
Also, Su Mo had four Spiritual Spirals.
Although four spirals greatly increased his combat strength, they also required him to collect four times more genuine Qi to increase his cultivation.
The four Spiritual Spirals were independent, but they were also connected by exchanging Qi.
If Su Mo wanted to become more powerful, he had to achieve breakthroughs in all four Spiritual Spirals, which was very difficult.
If Su Mo created nine Spiritual Spirals, he would need nine times more genuine Qi to achieve a breakthrough.
However, Su Mo did not regret cultivating Nine Spirals Mystique at all.
Perhaps collecting so much genuine Qi would be a huge problem for a regular martial artist at the same level, but it did not matter to Su Mo, who had a Devouring Martial Spirit.
Even if he did not have this war between countries mission, Su Mo still had a backup plan.
He had planned to find a mountain range with a large number of Demonic Beasts and kill them to devour their blood essence.
However, with this war between countries, Su Mo did not have to waste his time and energy.
Before this, his cultivation had been in the early stage of Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm. In a short amount of time, it had already reached the Middle Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm.
Also, it was still increasing.
“Die!”
A couple of experts from the Wild Wolf Army of Ironforest Country all rushed towards Su Mo at once.
They were all Wild Wolf Army Captains at Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm.
“You will die!”
Su Mo immediately rushed forward, waving his sword.
All four men were instantly sliced in half. They proved not to be a match for him.
Blood spewed like a fountain. Su Mo stood next to them as their blood spilled onto his body.
He was covered entirely in blood.
It looked like he had just stepped out from hell.
“Senior Brother Su Mo… ”
Zhou Xin saw Su Mo’s appearance and was frightened.
He thought that Su Mo had been badly injured.
“I’m fine. This is the enemies’ blood!”
Su Mo grinned, revealing a terrifying line of white teeth.
He did this so that he could be more discreet.
With all this blood on him, he could easily devour the energy of the Blood Qi completely.
This was much faster than carefully devouring the blood essence on the ground.
“Aagh!” someone suddenly cried.
Nearby, Niu Xiaohu and Li Feng were being attacked by a group of Ironforest Country soldiers.
Niu Xiaohu had been pierced by a spear. He was bleeding profusely and sweating in pain.
“Xiaohu!”
Su Mo flew over immediately and swung his sword. Limbs and blood flew everywhere.
“Ah! Agh! Aaaaghh!”
All the Ironforest soldiers died instantly.
Su Mo looked like the god of death in this bloodbath.
“You three, stay no more than five meters behind me,” said Su Mo hastily.
“Alright!”
The three men huddled behind Su Mo.
“Xiaohu, how is your wound?” asked Su Mo.
“It is alright, Senior Brother Su. It is just an external wound,” said Niu Xiaohu firmly, gritting his teeth.
“Alright! Take this bottle of elixir!”
Su Mo swiftly took out a bottle of high-grade healing elixir from his storage pouch and gave it to Niu Xiaohu.
Then, the men were surrounded again.
More and more Ironforest soldiers rushed in from all sides.
Everyone else was also being heavily attacked.
More than 2,000 Ironforest soldiers rushed towards the disciples of the four sects.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
“Puff! Puff!”
With every swing of Su Mo’s sword, blood spewed, and Ironforest soldiers fell.
Everyone, from regular Ironforest soldiers to the Captains of the Wild Wolf Army, was defenseless against him.
Su Mo’s cultivation had already increased to the Late Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm.
“Go to hell, boy!” shouted an Ironforest general in red armor.
He rushed towards Su Mo.
He was a Wild Wolf Army Captain and had a cultivation of Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm. He exuded evil spirit and fighting desire.
Boom!
The man was tall and menacing. He held a long silver spear; he hurled it towards Su Mo.
“You’re the one who’s going to die!”
Su Mo did not dodge. The four Spiritual Spirals inside him turned endlessly, and the long sword in his hand glowed. He used his sword to block the incoming spear.
“Sword Essence of Wind Devil!”
Sword radiance moved, sword Qi flashed, and fierce sword essence whistled sharply.
Boom!
Sword essence smashed against the long spear, sending blast waves everywhere.
Thump! Thump!
…
The long sword in his hand instantly transferred a large amount of force to Su Mo, forcing him to stumble three steps backwards.
The Captain also stumbled back five or six steps before regaining his footing.
“You are quite powerful,” the man said in surprise, raising his eyebrows.
Although he knew that Su Mo had extraordinary combat strength, he had not truly understood it until he fought with Su Mo himself.
He was a martial artist of Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm, and even a genius at Lv 4 Spiritual Martial Realm was no match for him.
He had thought that he would be able to kill Su Mo easily.
However, it seemed that this was not the case!
“Die!”
Su Mo had a cold look in his eyes. After the first blow, he immediately rushed forward again. His figure turned into a series of shadows.
“Amazing Chopping Technique of Wind Devil!”
Su Mo suddenly appeared next to the Captain, with a blinding sword radiance aiming straight for his head.
Su Mo was so fast that by the time his opponent reacted, the sword radiance had already reached his head.
“Destroy!”
This Captain was also a force to be reckoned with. He roared, and his long spear turned into silver lightning, immediately crashing with the sword radiance.
Boom!
The crash caused a deafening boom, forcing both men to fly back once again.
“You really are an expert at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm! How powerful!”
Su Mo raised his eyebrows and silently acknowledged his opponent’s power. He was much stronger than the Ulti-mystery Sect disciples from before.
Even the Lv 4 genius he had battled last from Ulti-mystery Sect had not been not this powerful.
“A Martial Artist at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm must have really powerful blood essence!”
Su Mo’s eyes flashed with fierce killing desire.
The higher the cultivation of a martial artist, the stronger the energy in his blood essence was.
Su Mo’s current cultivation had already increased to the Late Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm. If he was not mistaken, the blood essence of a martial artist at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm would be enough to break through the realm bottleneck.
“This sword will definitely kill you!”
Su Mo’s eyes were cold as he lightly raised his long sword. A strong wind began circling around him.
Then, a spot of cold light suddenly appeared out of thin air.
“Divine Wind Swordplay-Final Hit of Heavenly Wind!”
