Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 565
Chapter 565: The Return to Hong Domain
Five days later, Su Mo left Towering Sky Peak and arrived at Great Heaven Peak.
He was preparing for a return to Hong Domain. Last time, he, together with Hong Qingxuan and Wu Sheng, used the Transporting Formation of the other powers to travel across dozens of domains within two months.
This time, he would be travelling via the same method, or else it would take him more than a year to fly to Hong Domain even at his current cultivation.
He didn’t have much time left either as there was only a year and a half until the promised duel.
There was a Transporting Formation within Celestialspirit Sect, which could transport him to the surrounding domains. Thereafter, he would be able to borrow the Transporting Formation of other powers.
Before departure, Su Mo asked Master Huangfu Qing for more than 100 Supreme Spiritual Stones for the Transporting Formation could only be activated by Supreme Spirtual Stones.
Furthermore, Su Mo had heard from Feng Shaoyu and other Senior Brothers that there were many powers across East Continent that were dependent on Celestialspirit Sect and possessed Domain-teleporting Formation.
Since they were dependent powers of Celestialspirit Sect, they would not refuse Su Mo’s request, especially when he held the Heavenly Token.
As he walked along Great Heaven Peak, many disciples couldn’t help but chatter softly amongst themselves when they saw him. His stunning victories at the Martial Arts Competition of the Nine Peaks a few days ago was still a hot topic.
The surrounding whispers reminded Su Mo of the bet with Qian Xunyue, and he couldn’t resist laughing inwardly. He would love to see her face now!
The Transportation Grand Hall was located on the mountainside of Great Heaven Peak, with dozens of formations within, each giving off a milk white beam of light.
These formations all led to surrounding domains.
There were many disciples passing through within the Grand Hall, and most of them were Inner Disciples of True Darkness Realm with powerful auras. There were only a few Outer Disciples.
This was because it was rare for Outer Disciples to leave Dark Domain and only Inner Disciples would go out for training in other domains.
Entering into the Grand Hall, with a few inquiries to an elder Su Mo soon found out the destination of each Transportation Formation.
Then, he paid a million Medium Spiritual Stones and stepped into the Transportation Formation bound for Blackdragon Domain.
Domain-teleporting Formations within Celestialspirit Sect were not free but were actually rather expensive. However, this price was really just a token, for the amount of Supreme piritual Stones it took for each activation of the Transportation Formation when converted to Medium Spiritual Stones would be millions.
But disciples of Celestialspirit Sect would not have to use their own Spiritual Stones to activate the Transporting Formation.
There were designated Deacons within each Transformation Formation placing the Spiritual Stones to activate the formation.
Su Mo’s figure disappeared in the formation with a flash of blinding light.
Within the Grand Hall, a few people watched Su Mo leave with an odd glint in their eyes.
Scarlet Star City, Blackdragon Domain.
Su Mo suddenly reappeared following a flash inside a nondescript tower.
After the initial wave of dizziness had faded, he looked around and found the tower empty, except for an old man meditating with his eyes closed.
“Greetings, Senior!” Su Mo reckoned that this man was an elder of Celestialspirit Sect and saluted him.
“Very well! Move on!” The elder didn’t open eyes but replied with a slight nod.
Su Mo responded with a nod and left the tower immediately to the outside street.
As soon as he stood on the street, he immediately concealed his aura and flashed into a hidden alley nearby.
He then unleashed his spiritual consciousness and honed in on that nondescript tower.
He now had to be cautious since there would many occasions where people would seek to assassinate him. He intended to stop that from happening again.
When he was on Gale Island, he had offended Sky Alliance and was hunted by his enemies as soon as he left the Sect.
Now that he had upset Holy Sky Peak, he was concerned that they would send someone as well.
However, after an hour wait there was no one following him, Su Mo quietly let out a sign of relief.
“I must be overthinking!” Su Mo shook his head and flew away. Pretty soon he was out of Scarlet Star City and heading toward his next destination.
Just 10 minutes after Su Mo left the city, a tall young man with a python-patterned robe walked out of the antique and simple tower.
Su Mo was flying like a bolt of lightning through the layers of clouds toward Flying Snow Sect.
Flying Snow Sect was one of the few Sects in Blackdragon Domain that was dependent powers on Celestialspirit Sect. Most of the larger Sects in Blackdragon Domain were dependent on Holy Teal Dragon Sect, and only a few larger Sects had closer ties to Celestialspirit Sect.
While flying, Su Mo remembered that Lil Eight had swallowed a couple of Peak Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm martial artists and wondered how he was doing now.
With a tap on his spiritual beast pouch there was a flash of purple and a giant purple snake appeared by his side.
It was Lil Eight!
HISS!
Su Mo gasped before Lil Eight could even make a sound for Lil Eight had now grown to twice its original size.
He now stood at 133 meters, with gross figure and purple scales shining coldly on his body.
Although Lil Eight still only had two pairs of wings on its back, it now gave off a powerful aura of a Class 8 Lv 4 demonic beast.
Su Mo was in shock as Lil Eight had turned into a Class 8 Lv 4 demonic beast by just devouring the three Peak Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm experts Xiao Xuanyi, Shi Ying and Fan Jing.
“Ha Ha! This is great!” Su Mo was thrilled. He could not help but draw the comparison between him and his spiritual beast, both improving their strength by devouring others. His demonic beast even seemed to outshine him in terms of efficiency!
HISS! HISS!
Lil Eight flew excitingly around Su Mo, hissing repeatedly with joy.
It had been so bored, stuck in the spiritual beast pouch!
“Haha! Lil Eight, I will destroy the side hall of Cold-blood Hall in Hong Domain and will let you feast!” Su Mo laughed heartily.
He then stepped onto Lil Eight’s back and flew at lightning speed.
In the Imperial City, Skymoon Country.
Hundreds of strong martial artists had gathered in the sky above the Imperial City. They were mostly experts at the True Spirit Realm, with only five martial artists at the Enlightenment Realm.
Of the five Enlightenment Realm martial artists, one was a middle-aged swordsman with a long sword behind him, and another beautiful young married woman in a purple dress. They were Yun Shan, Master of the Sky Rapier Sect, and Yao Meng, sect master of Sky Yuan Sect respectively.
The remaining three were all black-robed men and experts of Cold-blood Hall.
These three obviously possessed stronger aura than that of Yun Shan and Yao Meng. Two were at Lv 2 Enlightenment Realm, and one was at Lv 3 Enlightenment Realm cultivation.
These five Enlightenment Realm experts and the many True Spirit Realm martial artists had joined forces to attack the imperial palace.
A large transparent air shield surrounded the majestic imperial palace.
Under the consistent attacks, the air shield kept shaking and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Countless of attack radiance turned into torrents and clashed against the transparent air shield repeatedly. Violent explosions rocked the air shield, which was now becoming cracks.
“We need to break the formation as soon as possible and kill the Imperial family of Skymoon and everyone from Gale Island!” The black-robed man at Lv 3 Enlightenment Realm roared.
