Warrior's Promise

Chapter 2691 Rules Of The Flames, Rules of Metal

Murong Qi and the youth in the black shirt broke out in a cold sweat as they suddenly felt endangered. At the same time, a huge Flaming Long Snake was dashing toward them and it was before them in no time.

“Primordial Spirit!”

Murong Qi and the youth in the black shirt were surprised to see that the Flaming Long Snake was the actual natural being of a Primordial Spirit.

They did not have the luxury of time to think about it and immediately attacked the Flaming Long Snake.

Murong Qi was mighty. She had cultivated the Wood-Based Power and comprehended the Immortal Rule. She threw out a punch and a green fist ray shot out, emitting Immortal Holy Light.

It was too late for the youth in the black shirt to take out his saber and he threw out a blow with his palms. His sharp Metal-Based Power Source was powerful.

The two of them were Advanced Supreme Beings and they possessed great strength. Although they were taken off guard, it was of no big issue for them.

However, while the two of them were countering the attacks, a sharp purple sword radiance appeared behind the youth in the black shirt, targeting his heart.

The sword radiance was quick and its power was mightier than the Flaming Long Snake’s. The attack took place at the point when Murong Qi and the youth threw out the blows.

“On no!”

The youth cried out in amazement. He suddenly realized that the sword radiance was the killer and the Flaming Long Snake was merely there to divert their attention.

However, he was unable to fend off the sword radiance as he was attacking the Flaming Long Snake.

The Power Source in his body and the power of the Rules were all gathered in his palms. He was in a situation whereby his fresh supply of power had not been replenished.

All of a sudden, the youth was in great danger.

Murong Qi was astounded as well. The sword radiance came unexpectedly and it was too quick for her to react.

She had not expected them to be ambushed.

“Ha!”

Murong Qi shouted out as the sword radiance was about to hit the youth. Holy Light burst out instantaneously from her body and covered the youth.

That was the Immortal Holy Light from the power of the Immortal Rule which Murong Qi was tapping into to save the youth.

At that instant, the attacks from Murong Qi and the youth hit the Flaming Long Snake and the Flaming Long Snake exploded. At the same time, the sharp sword radiance hit the youth.

Boom!

There was an explosion when the sharp sword radiance hit the youth on his back. The power was so mighty that it gushed out like the waves.

Rumble!

The overbearing power blew the youth into pieces and he turned into Blood Fog. Even the Immortal Holy Light could not fend off the blow.

That was not to put down the power of the Immortal Rule but Murong Qi had done it on the spur of the moment. Moreover, the Immortal Holy Light would not be as powerful when it was on used another person.

Although the Immortal Holy Light did not manage to protect the youth’s physical body, his Spiritual Soul remained unscathed.

The youth’s Primordial Spirit was a Duo Golden Saber. One of them was long, and the other was short. It seemed to be some form of Duo Golden Saber Primordial Spirit. It was rare but not very powerful.

“Done!”

Su Mo looked impassive. After he had attacked the youth, he did not devour the youth’s Primordial Spirit but immediately retreated into the Qi and blood.

“I shall spare your life, silly woman!”

Su Mo’s ghostly voice resounded in the area and it was full of mockery. However, he was nowhere to be seen.

“Crap!”

Murong Qi was enraged. She had witnessed the youth’s physical body being destroyed but was unable to stop it from happening. Her pretty face suddenly turned cold.

Whoosh!

Murong Qi was quick. She shuttled through the Qi and blood and gave chase after Su Mo.

Suddenly, a huge maelstrom appeared above the youth’s Duo Golden Saber Primordial Spirit, and a mighty devouring power consumed the Primordial Spirit.

“Senior Sister, save me!” The youth’s flustered voice was heard crying out from the Duo Golden Saber Primordial Spirit. “Oh no!” Murong Qi’s face turned pale. She turned around and flew back to save the youth’s Primordial Spirit.

However, she was too far away and she could not make it on time. After the Devouring Maelstrom had devoured the Duo Golden Saber Primordial Spirit, it disappeared into the Qi and blood in an instant.

“Junior Brother!”

Murong Qi’s face froze and her slender body started to tremble out of anger.

She could not accept the fact that a Low-rank Supreme Being had killed her fellow disciple.

Although she was not close to the Junior Brother, they were, after all, from the same sect. The Junior Brother had tried to court her before but she had turned him down. However, the two of them would go out together occasionally to toughen themselves.

“Ah!”

Murong Qi was infuriated. Her hair was wild like a lion’s, and vast aura swirled out from her body, causing the surrounding Qi and blood to disperse. “You shall die by my hand!”

Murong Qi shouted angrily and immediately turned around to pursue Su Mo.

However, she had lost sight of Su Mo in the blood vessel due to the slight delay.

After searching around for some time, she could not sense Su Mo’s aura around. She had no choice but to suppress her anger and give up.

…

“The Star Beast’s brain is tough!”

Su Mo had left the blood vessel and entered the Star Beast’s head.

The head was near the sea of consciousness and Su Mo was hiding in the brain.

The brain was sturdy like an Artifact and it was difficult to break through it. The area was peaceful with no one around. Su Mo sat down cross-legged and turned his palm over, revealing a golden crystal.

That was the youth’s attainments in the Rules. The youth was dead as Su Mo had refined his Primordial Spirit.

Although the youth’s Primordial Spirit was ordinary, he had impressive power of the Rules.

That was the Rules of Metal and it was tough and powerful. The youth had reached Rank 7 Beginning Realm in the Rules. “If I merge the Rules of Metal, I will have two types of Rules that are at Rank 7 Beginning Realm. I wonder if I can have a breakthrough in my cultivation level!” Su Mo muttered to himself.

He put the crystal into his body and started to merge it.

Everything went smoothly and soon, he had it merged successfully.

Su Mo put away all distractions and immersed himself totally in the Rules.

He started to devour the Dawn Stones and he had no lack of them.

He focused his mind on the Rules and his elixir field and made corroboration between the two. Having done so, he connected the vital energies and merged them together.

Su Mo had no idea whether he could have a breakthrough and how much time he would need. However, he had to do his best.

Among the disciples who participated in the Selection, his strength was considered fairly good. However, it was nothing compared to that of the cream of the crop among the Advanced Supreme Beings.

For example, he had not attacked Murong Qi earlier not due to the fact that she was a woman. He had not done so as he was no match for her. In order for him to get hold of a token and kill the Beast Soul, he had to enhance his cultivation level. If he did not do so, he would likely fail in the Selection.

At that point, Su Mo had two desires. One was to break through to the Middle-rank Supreme Being Realm, and the other was to use the shortest time possible to do so.

If he were to drag on for too long, the Selection would end by the time he had a breakthrough in his cultivation level and he could do nothing about it.

“Stand where you are!”

“You can’t escape!”

“You are done for!”

Suddenly, a big group of people were pursuing a man in the Star Beast’s large intestine.

He was a middle-aged man in a hemp top, and his body was covered with blood.

The man was pursued by more than 5,000 people, and the great commotion caught the attention of the rest of the people around. Thus, every now and then, more people would join the group.

Some of them who were in front of the man hurried over to stop him.

The man in the hemp top was a mighty Supreme. He was tough and had killed more than 10 people.

Although he was tough, he had to run away as he was injured. There were a few people with outstanding power in the group. Di Yihun was among that group of people as well. He did not take the lead but he followed the crowd. Even if he were to catch up with the man in the hemp top and kill him, it would be difficult for him to get hold of the token.

All the disciples were crazy and they behaved as though they had seen a rare treasure. Whoever had the token would immediately become their target.

Ye Jin was in the group as well and he was at the forefront. He was the one leading the attack, with dozens of disciples from the Qinghua Branch with him.

“Die!”

Ye Jin was out to kill. He attacked the man vigorously as he was determined to get his hands on the token. He would kill anyone who got into his way.
