Warrior's Promise

He released his Devouring Martial Soul. A torrential devouring power swept the heavens and the earth, enveloping the surrounding land and permeating every corner inside the jade bracelet.

Every place within a radius of 150 kilometers was entirely shadowed by his powerful devouring power.

Suddenly, the worst nightmare of the Netherworld Devil Sect, the Yin-yang Palace and the Beitangs had come true.

BAM, BAM, BAM!

Assaulted by his powerful devouring force, all the martial artists who had yet to attain the Martial Royal Realm exploded and died. Air blasts surged the air.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Horrific shrieks rang out everywhere. Save for those who had died, the lower-level martial artists in the Martial Royal Realm all felt their Dark Forces and blood Qi gush out of their bodies. They could do nothing.

Even those in the Emperor-to-be Realm--like the First and Second Demon Elders, Yin Zong, and Yang Dingtian--felt their blood and Dark Forces drain out from their bodies, thanks to Su Mo's devouring power.

"Attack him! Everyone join hands and attack him!" Second Demonic Elder yelled. They could not resist Su Mo's devouring power and could only attack him instead.

"Attack him together!"

"Hurry and attack him!"

"Let's kill him together!"

Everyone was yelling and attacking. Their terrifying Dark Forces swarmed and enveloped the entire sky. They attacked Su Mo relentlessly, one after another.

The spatial jade bracelet had been refined by Su Mo. He remained the ultimate dictator within its domain. It was impossible for them to scratch him a little, even with ten times as many people.

Su Mo's mind began to act. The entire space domain seemed to coagulate. The attacks of the crowd were restrained by an invisible spatial power, dissipating gradually.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Horrific shrieks continued to ring out everywhere. Every minute and every second, someone would die. Within the blink of an eye, all the martial artists under the Martial Royal Realm had died.

Only several thousand experts in the Martial Royal Realm were left. They tried sustaining themselves in face of Su Mo's devouring power.

The Dark Forces, Martial Souls and blood Qi of the myriad dead hurtled wildly toward Su Mo.

Su Mo began to devour these Dark Forces and blood Qi madly.

"Attack him!"

"Attack!"

"Kill him!"

Second Demon Elder, Yin Zong and the others kept yelling furiously. Their faces were terrified and the Dark Forces and blood Qi kept draining out from their bodies. Even with their cultivations, they could not hold out much longer.

Everyone attacked frantically and relentlessly. Yet they could not help matters. Su Mo remained totally unhurt.

Time passed slowly. After a period of more than 10 breaths, some lower-level warriors in the Martial Royal Realm had turned into mummies. Only slightly more than 100 experts were holding out desperately.

These 100 or so people no longer attacked. It would not help matters.

They tried desperately to suppress their Dark Forces and blood Qi, to slow their passages out.

"Su Mo, let us off, let us off!" Huangfu Qing called out to Su Mo feebly.

Huangfu Qing was now terribly weak. His whole body was emaciated like a mummy. He looked grotesque and could hardly stand.

Although there was no Dark Force inside his body, Huangpu Qing's blood and Qi Force had almost been entirely sucked away.

Without blood, even the martial artist body of Huangfu Qing could not survive.

Su Mo did not seem to hear his voice. He shut his eyes tight and continued devouring, trying to break into the Emperor-to-be Realm.

As expected, after a period of two breaths, Huangpu Qing died!

After nearly 20 breaths, less than 20 people were left standing.

"Let's all die together!"

The First Elder of the Netherworld Devil Sect, Yan Tai, streaked crazily and frantically at Su Mo.

After coming nearly 100 meters toward Su Mo, Yan Tai's body began to expand rapidly. A resounding explosion resulted in a shower of blast waves.

The Lvl 9 Martial Royal Realm martial artist, Yan Tai, had detonated himself!

He wanted to injure Su Mo with this detonation, but he could not even hurt Su Mo a hair.

After a short while, Yin Zong died. Yang Dintian died, the First Elder died... soon, everyone was dead.

In the entire space domain of the jade bracelet, only Su Mo was left.

Numerous complex Dark Forces, mighty streams of blood, and all sorts of Martial Souls wrapped Su Mo up in their midst.

Su Mo's body kept rumbling. The countless Dark Forces and blood Qi were refined, streaming into the divine elixirs. The five divine elixirs kept vibrating.

Soon, all the Dark Forces, blood Qi and Martial Souls had been devoured by Su Mo. His cultivation reached the Peak of Lvl 9 Martial Royal Realm. He was just one step away from breaking through.

"Just a little bit short!"

Su Mo became very impatient. If he did not succeed in breaking through this time, he would have to wait goodness know how much longer before he could gather enough resources to try again.

Then, he glanced at the dead bodies strewn everywhere and began collecting storage rings.

He grabbed them with outstretched hands and gathered all the expert's storage rings.

Rustle!

The storage rings were all unlocked by Su Mo. Everything inside them poured out.

The rolling Spiritual Stones piled up into a small hill.

There were over 1,000,000,000 Supreme Spiritual Stones within these storage rings.

These people had stayed too long in the jade bracelet domain. Their resources had almost been depleted. There were just too few Spiritual Stones with them.

Su Mo started devouring these Spiritual Stones. Soon, he had depleted all their resources. Yet, he had not broken through the realm.

"The Spiritual Crystal!" Su Mo remembered that within the storage rings, there was a single Spiritual Crystal. He immediately took it out.

He grasped the Spiritual Crystal in his hand and started devouring its Spiritual Qi inside.

Boom!

The Spiritual Crystal was affected by his devouring power and the Spiritual Qi Sea inside instantly exploded. A pure Spiritual Qi began to surge into Su Mo's body.

"How pure this Spiritual Qi is!" Su Mo was surprised. No wonder this sort of Spiritual Crystals was so valuable. One was worth 1,000,000,000 Supreme Spiritual Stones!

The Spiritual Qi inside the Spiritual Crystal was perhaps not as immense as those stored inside 1,000,000,000 Supreme Spiritual Stones. Yet it was several dozen times purer.

With the help of the pure Spiritual Qi inside the Spiritual Crystal, he took the period of only a few breaths to break the bottleneck to the next realm.

Boom!

The five divine elixirs inside Su Mo quaked loudly. They kept expanding to several times their original sizes. Within the blink of an eye, the aura from his body had become tremendously large.

Huff!

After a short while, the Spiritual Qi inside the Spiritual Crystal had been depleted as well. Su Mo opened his eyes. They shone with a scintillating brilliance.

He had finally broken into the Emperor-to-be Realm! All he needed to do now was to improve the cultivation of his Martial Soul.

Next, Su Mo waved his arm. Air blasts swept the countless corpses in the jade bracelet domain, swirling them together.

He used the fire-property Dark Force to completely incinerate these corpses.

When all were done, Su Mo exited the jade bracelet immediately and returned to his home tower.
