“Testing your loyalty is actually very simple!”
Ming Han kept his hands behind his back and trod lightly. He said, “There is a secret place in my Shang Qing Palace. It can let you enter your subconscious mind to test your loyalty!”
Su Mo and the others were slightly stunned to hear this. This test was actually so strange.
“Alright, come with me!” Ming Han beckoned as his figure immediately flashed and flew to a valley not far away.
Once again, Su Mo and the three others followed behind.
Not long after, several people came to the valley and walked into a dusty cave.
The cave was deep and there was a spacious Stone Hall.
In the Stone Hall, there was a huge stone statue that was five feet tall.
This statue was not of a human, but was a statue that seemed to be a fish. The statue looked extremely weird, having one eye on its head that was the size of a disc and sparkling.
“Look at the eyes of the statue. It can enter your subconscious mind!” Ming Han said coldly as he looked at the four of them.
The four of them looked up at the statue upon hearing this.
Looking at the huge eyes of the statue, the four of them were somewhat stunned, as if they had been stumped.
Su Mo could only feel muddle-headed as his brain seemed to turn into glue and his consciousness was no longer clear.
He realised that he had already become a disciple of Shang Qing Palace and resided there.
Su Mo seemed to have a dream, a very long dream that he was cultivating hard in Shang Qing Palace.
Moreover, he had completed task after task that the Palace had arranged and had killed several enemies.
Until one day, Shang Qing Palace was attacked by many powerful forces and he had died in the battle.
“Hmmm?”
Su Mo woke up and his eyes flashed. This statue was actually so mysterious that it could evoke his consciousness.
“Yes, you have passed the test and have already become a disciple of my Shang Qing Palace!” Ming Han saw that Su Mo had woken up and said faintly.
This kind of test was actually very simple. It was a test of character to see when one’s consciousness entered chaos if they would still remain loyal to Shang Qing Palace.
If they were loyal, they would soon wake up. If they were traitors, they would be countered and their Spiritual Souls would be wounded.
“Thank you!” Su Mo said.
“From now on, you are my junior. As your senior, I must tell you that you have to be humble in Shang Qing Palace!” Ming Han said in a deep voice as his face turned cold upon looking at Su Mo.
“Humble?” Su Mo instantly frowned when he heard this.
“That is, when you are faced with someone more powerful, you have to be aware of your attitude and have to be courteous. For example, facing me!” Ming Han said arrogantly.
Su Mo was sneering. This fellow was really extremely vain.
“Thank you Brother Ming Han!” Su Mo cupped his fists towards him and said politely. He had just joined Shang Qing Palace and he did not want to stir up any trouble, agreeing with the former.
“OK!” Ming Han slightly acknowledged with an arrogant manner.
After a while, thee charming woman Qi Ya and the refined young man Luo Rong, as well as the middle-aged man, Jian Zhong, woke up.
“Very good. Congratulations, you have all passed the test!” Ming Han said in a clear voice. No one had gotten hurt and that meant that everyone had passed the test.
Subsequently, Ming Han told everyone to follow him to go through the formalities.
The process was very simple. After a while, the four of them got their own Identity jade pendants and were allocated their accommodation.
The four of them were arranged to stay on the same mountain peak and stay in four small palaces that were connected.
Su Mo sat cross-legged in the palace as he narrowed his eyes and sensed carefully.
An Jian had transmitted a message to him via his Mental Stigma.
However, as it was Mental Stigma, it definitely would not be like transmitting messages, easily being able to hear what the message was. He had to carefully perceive it.
“Have you done it?”
After a while, Su Mo opened his eyes and looked fierce.
Sure enough, he had guessed it right. Sky Tyrant Clan wanted to attack him.
According to the news from An Jian, Sky Tyrant Clan was looking for him.
Not only that, they had commanded hundreds of Major Forces to secretly trace his whereabouts.
As for the reason, Su Mo naturally knew that he had attained the first rank on King Sage Board and his identity would definitely be known by Sky Tyrant Clan.
Su Mo’s heard sank. Once Sky Tyrant Clan attacked him, it would be hard to escape from the investigation, even if he were hidden in Shang Qing Palace.
“It seems that Gongcheng Tian Hao should be back soon!” Su Mo muttered to himself. Sky Tyrant Clan would definitely find a way to inform Gongcheng Tian Hao about Su Mo.
As for Gongcheng Tian Hao, no matter where he was, Su Mo reckoned that he would be back soon to deal with the latter.
What to do?
Su Mo’s heart sank. At the moment he could not leave Dark Region. Once he did, not only would he not be able to resolve the situation about Gongcheng Tian Hao, he would also not be able to resolve Qing Xuan’s situation.
In that case, how could he deal with the upcoming attacks by Sky Tyrant Clan and Gongcheng Tianhao?
“Shang Qing Palace!”
Su Mo’s eyes flashed. Using Shang Qing Palace to resist the attacks of Sky Tyrant Clan seemed like a good option.
However, although Shang Qing Palace was powerful, it could not confront Sky Tyrant Clan upfront.
In other words, once Sky Tyrant Clan knew that Su Mo was in Shang Qing Palace, a large number of Elites would try to control the border. Shang Qing Palace simply would not be able to set a barrier against Sky Tyrant Clan just for Su Mo.
“I need to add a few fires!” Su Mo’s eyes flashed. To let Shang Qing Palace help him, conflict had to erupt between Sky Tyrant Clan and Shang Qing Palace
In that case, Shang Qing Palace would not go easy on Sky Tyrant Clan.
In addition, strengthening the power of Shang Qing Palace would allow them to have the backing needed to deal with Sky Tyrant Clan.
How to strengthen the power of Shang Qing Palace?
Su Mo fell silent. With regards to this, he could not directly be involved. Letting the Power of Shang Qing Palace integrate with a Fighting Soul was attempting the impossible.
After thinking for a long while, Su Mo felt that it was only by letting other Major Forces allying with Shang Qing Palace could he deal with the Sky Tyrant Clan.
Immediately after, Su Mo temporarily suppressed this idea and began cultivating.
The next day, in the early morning.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Dull knocks on Su Mo’s palace door resounded.
Su Mo reached into his thoughts and found out that it was Qu Ya, Luo Rong and Jian Zhong who had joined Shang Qing Palace with him.
“Is there something wrong?” Su Mo opened the door and looked at the three of them.
“Brother Shangguan, we have come to find you to do our mission together!” Qu Ya said with a smile, her voice gentle.
“What mission?” Su Mo asked quietly. With his cultivation at this stage, what mission could he be summoned to do?
“Brother Shangguan you may not know this. Although we have now joined Shang Qing Palace, as outsiders who have passed the test, if we do not contribute, it will be difficult to completely integrate into Shang Qing Palace!” Luo Rong said quietly.
