Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 415
Chapter 415: Killed Easily
Jin Yan dashed into the Star-water Lake because that would greatly increase his chances of escape.
Both of them would be tremendously restricted by the water pressure, while their vision and mental perceptivity would also be severely restricted by the dark bottom of the lake.
With Su Mo’s cultivation, he was considered good if the range of his perceptivity could even reach half a kilometer in the depth of the lake.
But it was different for Jin Yan. As an expert in the Enlightenment Realm, he had already developed a spiritual consciousness that could detect a range of two and a half kilometers normally. Even at the bottom of the lake, his spiritual consciousness could easily extend over one kilometer.
As such, he could keep track of Su Mo easily, while Su Mo might not be able to do so. This gave him the confidence of escaping.
Jin Yan did not activate his Genuine Vitality upon entering the lake for protection. Instead, he dived quickly toward the bottom of the lake.
Su Mo sneered when he saw Jin Yan dashing into the lake because that would simply result in a hastier death for him.
“Get in there, Lil Eight!” Su Mo commanded and Lil Eight waved its tail and headed into the lake as well.
Upon entering the Star-water Lake, Su Mo instantly unleashed his spiritual consciousness as Jin Yan had already disappeared.
Su Mo’s spiritual consciousness could detect a range of five kilometers normally, but he was restricted in the lake water, so he could only detect within three and a half kilometers.
However, it was more than enough as Jin Yan could not possibly get so far away so quickly.
After unleashing his spiritual consciousness, Su Mo discovered Jin Yan instantly.
Jin Yan was currently diving toward the bottom of the lake while mumbling to himself, “Just you wait, Su Mo. After I get away, I’ll proceed to Cold-blood Hall’s Red Blood Branch immediately. I’ll massacre Gale Island and skin you alive!”
Jin Yan gritted his teeth. He turned around and checked, then he sneered when he did not find Su Mo.
“With your cultivation at True Spirit Realm, you can only catch up with me in your dreams!” Jin Yan scoffed and continued diving downward.
Su Mo suddenly smiled when he discovered Jin Yan and he quickly chased toward him together with Lil Eight.
It’s worth mentioning that Lil Eight’s speed was extremely fast even underwater. It was at least twice as fast as Jin Yan. It moved rapidly as it wagged its tail.
Soon, Su Mo was within a kilometer of Jin Yan.
At the same time, Jin Yan also discovered Su Mo, much to his surprise.
“How is this possible?”
Jin Yan was astonished that Su Mo could still track him in the water. He suddenly increased his speed in an attempt to escape.
But how could Jin Yan’s speed compare to that of Lil Eight’s? Within moments, Su Mo was already less than 300 meters away from him.
“Take this!” Su Mo attacked again with his five-colored sword Qi that separated the lake water. It was heading straight for Jin Yan.
“Oh no!” Jin Yan was alarmed. Since his speed underwater was restricted, he could not evade Su Mo’s attack.
“Break!”
Jin Yan brandished his saber for a counter attack. He incinerated the surrounding water into mist, and, with a powerful fire saber Qi, instantly destroyed Su Mo’s sword Qi.
However, although he managed to block Su Mo’s attack, at that moment, he was already closing in on him.
Jin Yan did not dare to fight against Su Mo, so he quickly tried to escape again.
However, it was too late. Su Mo stepped on Lil Eight’s back forcefully to leverage the counterforce to speed up behind Jin Yan and slashed at him.
“Die!” Su Mo cried out loudly and the glaring sword radiance separated the lake water and slashed at Jin Yan violently.
“Scram!”
Jin Yan could not avoid the attack underwater so he had to face it head-on. He brandished his war saber against the incoming sword radiance.
Clang!
The sound of metal colliding was heard as the terrifying force emptied the surrounding water and created a huge wave at the surface of the lake.
Jin Yan was unable to withstand Su Mo’s power, and the impact sent him and his saber flying. The impact left a hint of blood in his mouth.
Swoosh!
Su Mo chased after him with a golden glow on his body and a dazzling five-colored sword radiance on his long sword.
“It’s over!”
His arm moved, followed by a sword radiance that split space.
“No…!”
Jin Yan only managed to cry out loud before he was cut in two and died.
“Devour!” Su Mo would not give up on an Enlighten Realm martial artist’s blood and Vital Spirit. He released his Devouring Martial Soul immediately and started devouring.
Elephant shadows appeared on his body again and roared silently in the pitch dark bottom of Star-water Lake.
Soon, Su Mo absorbed all the blood and Vital Spirit, further increasing his physical strength, which was now equivalent to the combat strength of a martial artist at a half step to the Enlightenment Realm. His physical strength alone was now incredibly close to the power of a Lv 1 Enlightenment Realm martial artist.
After collecting Jin Yan’s storage ring, Su Mo and Lil Eight dashed out of Star-water Lake.
“Come back, Lil Eight!” While standing on the lake, Su Mo pondered for a moment and promptly put Lil Eight back into his storage ring. He then flew toward the Scorching Sun Sect.
There was no need for the Scorching Sun Sect to exist anymore!
The Scorching Sun Sect was a few thousand kilometers away from Gale Island. With Su Mo’s speed, he was near Scorching Sun Sect’s gate after four hours.
The gate was built on a stretch of a tall mountain range which were called the “Flaming Sun Mountains”. Spiritual Qi of the fire property was extremely dense in the mountains.
Amidst the tall mountains, there were countless buildings that included palaces and pavilions.
Judging by its scale alone, the aura of the Scorching Sun Sect’s gate was superior to that of Gale Island.
At this moment, there were many disciples sparring against each other on the Inner Square of the Scorching Sun Sect. The entire place was crowded and noisy.
“Hey! Do you know? From today onward, I’m afraid that Skymoon Country will only be left with three sects!” Someone said quietly.
“Why?” The person who heard that looked confused.
“Hehe!”
That guy smirked and said proudly, “I bet you don’t know about this yet! Our master and the Highest Elder have brought over 90% of our experts to destroy Gale Island!”
“What?”
“Is this true?”
“This isn’t possible, is it? Although our Scorching Sun Sect is slightly stronger than Gale Island, I doubt that we are capable of destroying Gale Island!”
Those people who heard him were stunned and immediately asked him.
“Haha!”
The person who spoke earlier laughed and wanted to answer them, but at this very moment, a sudden whistle was heard coming from the horizon.
Everyone quickly turned their head to discover a rainbow that flew toward the Scorching Sun Sect rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, the rainbow arrived and stopped above the Scorching Sun Sect to reveal a youthful figure.
Everyone was startled. They thought it was some expert, but it turned out to be a young man who was about 16 or 17 years old.
However, this young man could fly by air despite his young age and his cultivation had achieved the True Spirit Realm. He must be extraordinarily talented!
