Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 1804
Chapter 1804: Demon Sealing Soul Curse
Dark faces could be seen all over the Sorcerer Tribesmen as they flew through the starry space.
“Leader, are we just going to let Su Mo go like that?” Grand Priest Wu Lun despondently asked Wu Jing in front of him.
“Yes! Leader, Su Mo killed over a few hundred thousand of our men, we have lost big today!” Another Martial Sage added.
Everyone else stared at Wu Jing with a long face, clearly disappointed by what had happened.
It was simply too infuriating to think that the Sorcerer Tribe that was ranked the 380th strongest tribe in the entire universe would be humiliated by the Triple Deities Sect.
Wu Jing did not reply the Martial Sages directly but turned his head around to look at Saint Elder Jia Shen to ask, “How is it?”
“Not a problem, I have already placed a curse on Su Mo!” Jia Shen replied.
“A curse?” Everyone who heard Jia Shen’s words brightened their eyes as their faces filled with glee.
Curses were one of the forbidden arts of the Sorcerer Tribe and belonged to a category called the Grand Curse Skills. It was a terribly frightening Sorcerer Arts that was the most forbidden arts of all forbidden arts.
However, these forbidden arts were very difficult to master and anyone who practiced them had to pay a huge price.
Among all the Sorcerer Tribesmen, only Saint Elder Jia Shen who had lived for more than 10,000 years could practice this art.
Hearts leapt with joy, no wonder the leader had retreated so easily, the two Empty Gods had schemed together.
“Which curse?” Wu Jing asked. Among all the Grand Curse Skills, there were wide varieties of curses and hence, Wu Jing was curious as to which skill Jia Shen had placed on Su Mo.
“The Demon Sealing Soul Curse!”
Saint Elder Jia Shen replied. Although this curse wasn’t the strongest or most lethal curse, with the situation just now where Sword God Tongtian and Xu Wushen were around, he could only discretely use this curse on Su Mo.
Otherwise, he had other curses that were more than ten or a hundred times stronger than the Demon Sealing Soul Curse, but those curses would cause a scene when being placed and hence he could only use the Demon Sealing Soul Curse.
“Very good!” Wu Jing’s face finally relaxed after hearing Jia Shen’s words and a brilliant flash of light passed through his eyes.
So what about Sword God Tongtian?
No one could prevent the Sorcerer Tribe from killing who they wanted to kill!
The Demon Sealing Soul Curse was considered an obstructive curse. The curse would act up when the victim of it broke through a cultivation rank. It would mess with the martial artist’s mind and push him into a dangerous situation where he could easily self-destruct, increasing the difficulty of breaking through by about 10 times.
Most importantly, once Su Mo’s curse acted up, he would be the first to know where Su Mo was.
By that point, even if Su Mo wasn’t killed by the curse, killing Su Mo would be an effortless task.
“Leader, killing Su Mo isn’t a problem but we cannot let Li Tongtian off!”
Saint Elder Jia Shen said. The merciless deaths of a few hundred Sorcerer Tribesmen, where most of them were experts and also 10 Martial Sages, this was a tragic loss to them and they definitely needed to have revenge.
“That is granted!”
A cold flash of light passed through Wu Jing’s eyes. However, a second later, he sighed, “Unfortunately, there are only the 3 of us in the tribe now and we cannot confront Li Tongtian. We ought to wait for the others to return!”
Aside from the 3 Empty Gods currently in the tribe, there were about 10 other Empty Gods.
Yet, these 10 others were determined to become gods and they had never returned to the tribe after threading on the God’s Path, rendering them helpless.
In an old-looking palace on a mountain in the Triple Deities Sect, four people stood in a cave. They were Li Tongtian, Xu Wushen, the Triple Deities Sect Leader, Fu Chuan and Su Mo.
The four of them sat cross-legged on a futon.
“Brother Li, thank you for your help today!” Xu Wushen thanked Li Tongtian once again. Since the Sect Leader was present, he could not address Li Tongtian as ‘senior’.
“Hehe, you and I are considered friends, you don’t need to thank me!” Li Tongtian waved his hand dismissively and laughed.
With that, he turned towards the Sect Leader Fu Chuan and said, “I heard that you were injured by Devil God Moshen a hundred years ago, it seems that it was true!”
He could clearly sense that Fu Chuan’s aura was weak, much weaker than Xu Wushen’s. Evidently, he had not fully recovered from his injuries.
“Yes, I was almost killed in that fight but luckily I managed to escape!” Fu Chuan sighed.
“The God’s Path is highly dangerous and there is no level higher than the first. It is best that you do not easily touch it!” Li Tongtian warned. He was not on familiar terms with Fu Chuan and had only met him briefly on several occasions.
“Thank you Brother Li for your reminders!” Fu Chuan cupped his fists towards Li Tongtian.
On the other hand, Su Mo quietly listened to the three people’s conversation and wondered. God’s Path? What was that?
However, although he was curious, he did not interfere in the conversation.
Slightly checking through his body, Su Mo frowned slightly. He felt something amiss in his body after the Sorcerer Tribesmen left.
Yet, after carefully surveying himself, he did not fight anything wrong and that made him utterly bewildered.
At that point, Li Tongtian stared at Su Mo and said, “Su Mo, you shouldn’t stay in Ancientspirit Galaxy anymore. Settle your things quickly and I will bring you to leave Ancientspirit Galaxy!”
Li Tongtian was aware of Su Mo’s mission and his words hinted at Su Mo to finish his mission as fast as possible.
“Mm!” Su Mo nodded.
“Brother Li, stay here for a few days until Su Mo finishes with the Dragon’s Vein!” Xu Wushen said.
A few moments later, Xu Wushen, Su Mo and Fu Chuan left the cave.
“Wushen, I will wait for your explanation!” Fu Chuan told Xu Wushen before his body flashed and he returned to a lake not far away. That was where he had been recuperating.
Xu Wushen sighed, he had to find a valid excuse to explain the matter to Fu Chuan.
After all, although there wasn’t a huge disaster this time, they had made enemies with the Sorcerer Tribe and this would prove terrible for them in the future.
While the Sorcerer Tribe wouldn’t engage in a large-scale war with them, suppressing the Triple Deities Sect on many occasions would be something they would have to prepare for.
However, there wasn’t much wrong with that. As long as he and the Sect Leader maintained in the sect, the Sorcerer Tribe would not find trouble with them.
Xu Wushen stared at Su Mo next and flew towards a grass patch not far away where many members of the various superpowers were waiting for them.
The Giant Beings Clan, Flying Spirit Clan, Black Scale Tribe, Imperial Ancestor Court Faction, Nine Heavens Holy Ground members were all waiting for them.
However, the Empty Gods from these various superpowers were no longer around and they had returned to their respective tribes.
The Sky Dragon Contest was over and the Ancient Dragon’s Vein had to be handed over by the Triple Deities Sect to the winner of the contest under everyone’s watch.
As such, a group of people from each superpower had stayed to witness the event.
Shoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Xu Wushen and Su Mo landed on the grass patch.
“Everyone, the Sky Dragon Contest has ended and now, I will personally hand over the Ancient Dragon’s Vein to Su Mo!” Xu Wushen stared at the crowd in front of him and announced.
All heads nodded. This was a rule that had been passed down for years and it would not change now.
“Su Mo, congratulations on obtaining first for the Sky Dragon Contest!” Gu Tianyi smiled as he cupped his fists towards Su Mo, his face filled with sincerity.
“Hehe, Su Mo, you obtained the first for the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction and it is the pride and honor of the whole faction. I thank you on behalf of the entire faction!”
The king spoke as he wore a warm and bright smile on his face.
Yet, Su Mo’s eyes narrowed upon hearing the king’s words. He knew what the king was implying behind his words!
He wasn’t dumb and he knew that firstly, the king was trying to pull their relationship closer and secondly, point him out as an Imperial Ancestor Court Faction member to corner him into giving the Ancient Dragon’s Vein to the Imperial Ancestor Court.
Su Mo laughed bitterly in his heart. Whether or not he obtained the Dragon Vein had nothing to do with the Imperial Ancestor Court, he had won the contest with his own strength.
Although he really wanted to keep the Ancient Dragon’s Vein for himself, he had no intention of devouring it entirely.
After all, Gu Tianyi had helped him and Su Mo would give the Dragon’s Vein to him as thanks.
Su Mo knew that the relationship between him and Gu Tianyi wasn’t pure. Gu Tianyi had kept him under his wing because Su Mo was highly talented.
Regardless of that, Gu Tianyi had saved him before and he had to repay the favor!
“Thank you your majesty!” Su Mo cupped his fists and bowed towards the king although his heart was filled with bitterness. He knew that he eventually had to return the Dragon’s Vein to the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction.
However, he would not return empty-handed.
