Warrior's Promise

After flying for a few days, Su Mo finally left Devilish Land and entered a barren mountain range.

Li Feng and Hong Qingxuan waited anxiously within the Divine Map's Space in the courtyard. They knew nothing about the situation outside.

"I wonder how Brother Su Mo is doing," Hong Qingxuan whispered to herself, concern written all over her face.

Li Feng attempted to comfort her. "Don't worry! Su Mo is so powerful, he'll be fine!"

"I hope so!" She sighed.

Just then, Su Mo suddenly appeared in the yard.

"Brother Su Mo!"

"Su Mo!"

They exclaimed when they spotted him.

"Did you get the Demonic Sword?" Li Feng asked in a deep voice.

"Yes! I got it!" Su Mo nodded.

"Great!" Li Feng and Hong Qingxuan beamed.

Su Mo omitted the fact that although he had obtained the sword, he could not use it. Otherwise, the risk of being bound by its spell was far too great.

Swoosh!

Lil Eight streaked through the air and circled the courtyard.

Su Mo's eyes lit up at the sight of his pet. It was bigger than before and a third pair of wings had grown on its back.

Lil Eight was now a Class 2 Lv 5 Demonic Beast.

"Haha!"

Su Mo was elated to see Lil Eight's growth. If it continued to grow at this rate, it might one day become an Eight-winged Drake, a super powerful demonic beast from the post-archean times.

Hiss! Hiss!

Lil Eight lowered its huge head and rubbed against Su Mo, its eyes full of affection.

"Haha!"

Su Mo patted Lil Eight on its head and played with it for a while before it flew back into the sky.

Su Mo began to take stock of his spoils.

In the process of obtaining the Billion Demonic Sword, he had amassed tons of storage rings and even a few corpses with storage rings.

He had stored these corpses in his storage ring, which meant that their energy had since dissipated. Su Mo threw them out of the Divine Map's Space after extracting their storage rings.

When he finished counting his spoils, Su Mo found that he had collected over 3,800 storage rings.

He could have gotten even more storage rings, but the battles leading up to him obtaining the Demonic Sword had been so fierce, he hadn't had the time to collect them all.

"Qingxuan, Li Feng, let's count our spoils together!"

Su Mo asked them to help tally up the spoils alongside him. There were just too many storage rings.

"Alright!"

The three began to carefully check through all the storage rings.

It took them two hours to finish totaling up all the items in the storage rings.

Within the storage rings, there were 44 Supreme Spiritual Stones, 2.6 billion Upper Spiritual Stones, and more than 13 billion Medium Spiritual Stones.

In addition to Spiritual Stones, there were more than 11,000 weapons, more than 15,000 cultivation skills and martial arts techniques, more than 20,000 bottles of elixirs, and 8,000 Spiritual Herbs.

There were also a variety of crystals, internal armors and so on.

"Phew!"

Su Mo heaved a long sigh of relief and smiled brightly.

He was now tremendously wealthy!

He would not need to worry about Spiritual Stones for a long time!

"This should be enough for all three of us to advance to the Martial King Realm!" Su Mo smiled at Li Feng and Hong Qingxuan.

Li Feng and Hong Qingxuan were astounded by the wealth Su Mo had managed to amass.

After some discussion, they decided to return to Celestialspirit Sect and use this time to work at increasing their cultivation.

Li Feng and Hong Qingxuan continued to cultivate within the Divine Map's Space while Su Mo went outside to resume his journey.

However, instead of returning directly to Celestialspirit Sect, he went to the Sky-sea Pavilion headquarters in Wuling City.

Now that he had an incredible amount of Spiritual Stones, he would stay in Celestialspirit Sect for a while to increase his cultivation. But first, he wanted to buy some craftsmanship materials.

Although the Spiritual Treasure Palace of Celestialspirit Sect also sold craftsmanship materials, they could not hold a candle to Sky-sea Pavilion in terms of variety or quantity.

This was why Su Mo went to Sky-sea Pavilion.

In the Sky-sea Pavilion trading hall, Su Mo spent more than eight million Upper Spiritual Stones on craftsmanship materials for refining Lv 6 weapons.

This would be enough to refine at least a hundred Lv 6 weapons. If he could craft this many Lv 6 weapons, his level of craftsmanship would be high enough for him to craft his own Natal Spiritual Sword.

There were two reasons Su Mo did not purchase Beast Souls.

Firstly, his Martial Soul had reached Heaven Class, so he had no idea whether devouring Beast Souls would still be effective.

Secondly, Celestialspirit Sect's Spiritual Treasure Palace also had many Beast Souls for sale.

After purchasing the materials he needed, he headed to the Craft Tower to look for Elder Shan. He wanted to consult with him about the craftsmanship materials needed to craft a Natal Spiritual Sword.

Elder Shan had been cultivating in Craft Tower. When he heard that Su Mo had arrived, he immediately invited him into his room.

They took their seats as guest and host.

"Su Mo, I've been hoping you'd drop by recently. I didn't think you'd actually visit!" Elder Shan smiled warmly at Su Mo.

"Haha! I was passing by, so I decided to drop in and purchase some craftsmanship materials!" Su Mo said with a smile.

"I've collected another 33 craftsmanship materials based on the list you gave me last time!"

With a wave of his hand, more than 30 craftsmanship materials appeared in front of him.

"Thank you, Elder Shan!" Su Mo was elated and also touched. He had not expected Elder Shan to pay so much attention to his request.

Elder Shan waved off his thanks. "You're too kind. I should be the one thanking you. The craftsmanship technique for the King Kong Shield you gave me was like a rare treasure for us."

As he spoke, Elder Shan waved his hand again and the materials were sent to Su Mo.

After collecting the materials, Su Mo asked, "How much are these, Elder Shan?"

"270,000 Upper Spiritual Stones!" he replied.

Su Mo nodded and immediately paid him the exact amount.

"I'll keep an eye out for the other materials. If I find them, I'll put them aside for you!" said Elder Shan.

Su Mo thought for a while and shook his head "Elder Shan, I'll be leaving the East Continent soon, so there's no need to do so!"

"You want to leave the East Continent?" Elder Shan asked in surprise.

Su Mo nodded. "Yes, I'm going to the Central Continent!"

Now that he had an almost infinite amount of Spiritual Stones, all he had to do was continue cultivating in Celestialspirit Sect until he had the ability to cross the Barbaric Mountains.

Then, he would set off for the Central Continent.

Elder Shan nodded, but he did not probe further. He knew Su Mo must have had his reasons.

They conversed about craftsmanship for a few hours. Su Mo even told him several craft formulas from the ancient times, and Elder Shan rejoiced as if he had just discovered a treasure.

Of course, Su Mo also asked Elder Shan to share his insights and experiences on crafting Lv 6 weapons and benefited a lot from it.

After a few hours, Su Mo left Craft Tower and headed straight for Celestialspirit Sect.
