Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Su Mo shut his eyes in the secret chamber and pushed all the disturbing thoughts away. He was working hard on his cultivation.
He absorbed and refined the Chaotic Energy that had been released perpetually from the Chaotic Energy Elixir.
Given his current cultivation level, even with a sufficient supply of resources, it would be difficult for him to move up to another level and he could only spend more time working on it.
However, he was already progressing at a rapid speed compared to those who were in the same rank as him.
Time passed quickly as Su Mo immersed himself in his cultivation and ignored whatever was going on outside.
Soon, four years passed. This day, Su Mo’s aura surged all of a sudden as he was having a breakthrough. He had entered another level.
.
Hoof!
He opened his eyes and let out a mouthful of foul air. The foul air was like a sword and it shot into the wall of the secret chamber.
“Rank 2 Lower True God Realm!” Su Mo’s eyes lit up. After being in seclusion for four years, he had advanced to Rank 2.
Although he possessed the Chaotic Energy Elixir, the speed of his cultivation did not hasten.
In the future, the speed would slow down even further. That was not only due to the difficulty in moving on to the next cultivation level but the shackles in the talent attributed to it as well
For an ordinary Rank 1 Advanced True God to advance to Rank 2 Advanced True God Realm, one would need decades, several hundred years, or even thousands of years.
“In the future, I will have to devour some Blood Force and Primordial Spirits!” Su Mo muttered to himself. His potential and strength would only become more powerful if he devoured some Blood Force and Primordial Spirits.
However, the ordinary Blood Force and Primordial Spirits were no longer useful to him.
He had to devour top-notch Blood Force and Primordial Spirits.
Shortly, Su Mo sighed and continued with his cultivation.
There was still lots of energy in the Chaotic Energy Elixir and it could last him for more than 10 years.
Su Mo continued to refine the energy in the Chaotic Energy Elixir. While he cultivated, he worked on comprehending the Devouring Rules.
His Devouring Rules had reached Rank 1 End Realm and soon, he would advance to Rank 1 Completion Realm.
He would not slack off in comprehending the Rules as his cultivation level would progress slowly or even remain stagnant if his power of the Rules was weak.
In any case, the power of the Rules would affect his progress in martial arts.
At that moment, Su Mo had surplus resources and time and he intended to use the time he had to create his own unique skill.
He would use the sword as his base and the devouring power to complement his unique skill.
Time passed quickly as Su Mo focused his mind on his cultivation.
Another three years passed and Su Mo opened his eyes and ended his cultivation.
His cultivation level was still at Rank 2 Lower True God Realm but he had almost reached Rank 2 Middle True God Realm.
His Devouring Rules had reached Rank 1 Completion Realm.
“The progress is too slow!”
Su Mo sighed. Although his cultivation level was moving at a faster pace than his peers, it was still too slow to him.
As his cultivation level became higher, the speed would slow down even further. In that case, he would have to spend more than 1,000 years on reaching the Supreme Being Realm.
He found the speed unacceptable as it would put him in danger.
First of all, he had no idea when Di Yihun and Tuoba Qingyun would become Advanced Supreme Beings.
Secondly, he had no idea when the array in the Deity Plane would change its position. It could happen at any time.
When that happened, Di Yihun could easily get down to the Lower Plane.
If Di Yihun dealt with his family and friends, it would be a disaster.
Thus, he had to enhance his strength quickly so that he would have the ability to contend with Di Yihun.
In order for him to do so, he had to go to the Spatiotemporal Region again.
He would then tap on the Time Gate in the Spatiotemporal City to help him speed up within a short period of time.
“It has been so many years. I wonder if Long Teng and Si Kongyan have come to Deity Plane.”
Su Mo muttered to himself. Given the talent of the few of them, they should have reached Rank 4 Empty God Realm!
With their combat strengths, they might have been able to force through the Space Boundary and enter Deity Plane in advance.
However, Su Mo was not sure about it. After all, the Space Boundary was too powerful. Although the few of them had great combat strength, they might not be powerful enough to break through.
Su Mo waved his hand and a transparent coffin appeared in front of him.
A beautiful figure was lying in the coffin and she looked peaceful and gentle. It was a poignant scene.
Su Mo’s heart was heavy as he looked at Qian Xunyue. For so many years, Qian Xunyue had been keeping him company.
On a positive note, Su Mo was able to bring Qian Xunyue with him to Deity Plane as she was deemed to be dead.
“I hope Ren De Palace Master can bring you back to life!” Su Mo looked hopeful and he could not help reminiscing about the past.
Back from when they were in Firmament World, various scenes that the two of them had shared appeared in his mind.
Shortly, Su Mo stopped thinking about the past and put away the coffin. He stood up and left the secret chamber.
After he came out of the palace, he came to the Palace Master’s palace.
“Palace Master!”
Su Mo stood in front of the gate and called out as he cupped his fist. He had no idea if the Palace Master would be in the palace, but he had to meet him before his departure.
“Come in!”
Shortly, the gate opened automatically and Ren De Palace Master’s voice resounded from within.
Ren De Palace Master was sitting in the Hall and he looked at Su Mo with a stern look.
“Greetings, Palace Master!”
Su Mo walked into the Hall and cupped his fist at Ren De Palace Master.
“Su Mo, you have progressed well in your cultivation level!” Ren De Palace Master said, nodding his head as he sized Su Mo up.
Su Mo was shocked when he heard Ren De Palace Master addressing him as Su Mo and not Duan Jingtian.
“Palace Master, has Di Yihun been here?” Su Mo asked.
“No, he hasn’t. However, Tian Chenyu was here twice!” Ren De Palace Master replied. For the past few years, Tian Chenyu had been to Human Palace thrice.
The first time when he was there, he had not made any comment. The second time he came, he had tried to persuade Ren De Palace Master and given him a considerable amount of reward. He had even told him of the promises that Di Yihun had made to him.
However, Ren De Palace Master was not tempted. If it were not so, Su Mo would not have been standing there.
After the two futile trips, Tian Chenyu had come a third time to warn him.
Ren De Palace Master was not threatened by Tian Chenyu and he had told him that Su Mo had left Human Palace.
Since the beginning, he had been insisting that Su Mo had left Human Palace.
To make it more convincing, Human Palace had sent some men off to search for Su Mo. However, they had come back empty-handed.
“Tian Chenyu?” Su Mo pondered for a while when he heard the name. He had heard about Tian Chenyu and knew that he was a Great Supreme Being.
“You don’t have to know about this and you don’t have to worry about your safety!” Ren De Palace Master said.
“Alright!”
Su Mo nodded. Since Ren De Palace Master had assured him of his safety, there was no point asking any further. After a while, Su Mo said, “Palace Master, I would like to leave Human Palace for a period of time!”
“Leave Human Palace?”
Ren De Palace Master pondered for a while and said, “If you leave Human Palace, you will get into danger.”
Di Yihun had many spies outside Human Palace. Once Su Mo was out of Human Palace, he would be in danger.
“Palace Master, in order for me to become more powerful, I will have to leave Human Palace. Of course, I will need to have enough resources.” Su Mo said.
Ren De Palace Master was silent. He definitely wished for Su Mo to become more powerful, but he did not want him to get into danger.
“Since you wish to leave, I will help you. As for the resources, how much do you need?” Ren De Palace Master asked.
“I need one billion of each of the Five Elements Dawn Stones!” Su Mo replied. He was worried that the Palace Master would not have enough Chaotic Dawn Stones and thus he took a step back and asked for the Five Elements Dawn Stones.
“One billion? Lower-grade Dawn Stones?” Ren De Palace Master asked Su Mo.
If Su Mo was asking for one billion Lower-grade Dawn Stones, it would not have been a large amount. However, if he was asking for Middle-grade Dawn Stones, it would be a hefty number. Although Human Palace had a large fortune, they had worked hard for their resources.
Moreover, Su Mo had asked for one billion of each of the Five Elements Dawn Stones and that would amount to five billion in total.
“Middle-grade Dawn Stones!” Su Mo replied. He had thought of asking for the Lower-grade Dawn Stones, but when he’d remembered that he would not be back to Human Palace within a short period of time, he had changed his mind and asked for the Middle-grade Dawn Stones.
“If you are asking for the Middle-grade Dawn Stones, that will be too many. How about this? At most, I can give you 300 million. Come and collect them tomorrow. If you need more in the future, you can come to me.” Ren De Palace Master said thoughtfully.
Su Mo was surprised when he heard what Ren De Palace Master had said. Although Ren De Palace Master did not accede to his request, 300 million was a hefty number. After all, they were Middle-grade Dawn Stones.
“Thank you, Palace Master!” Su Mo immediately bowed to the Palace Master to thank him. With these resources, he would not have to worry for decades, or even up to 100 years.
“Alright. You may go now! I shall give you the resources tomorrow and arrange for you to leave!” Ren De Palace Master said and waved his hand.
Although he had given Su Mo the Heaven Illusionary Pill, he had to make the necessary arrangements to ensure Su Mo’s safety.
“Palace Master, I have one more request!” Su Mo said as he cupped his fist. He waved his hand and Qian Xunyue’s coffin appeared in front of him.
