The torrents and falling trees created by the supreme Dharmic powers shook the world with a majestic aura. Even as bystanders, everyone could feel the apocalyptic might as though they were personally present!
In the square, some of the cultivators who were not involved were pale with fright.
That was the might of a Grade 4 killing formation!
That was the power of Dharma.
Be it spirit energy, spirit arts or weapons, none of them could compare to Dharmic powers, Dharmic arts or weapons.
Only after advancing to Nascent Soul realm and cultivating an Essence Spirit could one come into contact with the secrets of Dharma. Even Perfected Jin Dan could not come into contact with it!
Amidst the endless falling trees and torrential waves, the figure that was advancing slowly was so insignificant that it even looked petty, as though he could be reduced to ashes at any moment.
However, for some reason, everyone felt an unprecedented shock in their hearts that was even more intense than the impact of a Grade 4 killing formation!
What sort of will was that?
Even if the path ahead was filled with dangers and killing intent, it could not stop his will!
If I want to kill you today, I won't let you live past tomorrow!
Peak Master Wen Xuan's wish had to be fulfilled by someone eventually.
In the battle of Dongling Valley, many Misty Peak disciples died in a bloodbath. That blood debt had to be repaid by someone eventually!
I won't be at ease if you don't die!
Die Yue was not wrong – there was a ferocious tiger residing in Su Zimo's heart. However, it was still in a deep slumber.
The moment Die Yue brought Su Zimo into cultivation, the ferocious tiger had already woken up.
Now that the ferocious tiger was awake, it naturally wanted to devour humans!
In the square and spectator area, more than a hundred thousand cultivators watched the figure that was advancing through the Grade 4 killing formation with great difficulty. Nobody spoke and it was silent.
"How did he do it?"
As Genying Zhenjun, even the emperor could not understand what was going on.
"Hehe, this nerd is always full of surprises. He's getting more and more interesting," Ji Yaoxue pursed her lips into a smile as her watery eyes curved into crescents.
Gu Xi gave a fake smile and rolled her eyes at her with ripples in her beautiful eyes.
"Look, he's already passed through."
Finally, under everyone's watchful eyes, Su Zimo crossed from the Water Region to the Wood Region.
The people of Misty Peak heaved a sigh of relief and looked excited.
The crowd began to discuss again.
"From the looks of it, perhaps only five meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators can stop Su Zimo."
"Among the five meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the wood region, there is Shi Jian of the Southern Mountains Sect and an itinerant cultivator."
"Su Zimo must be exhausted after passing through a Grade 4 killing formation. If he bumps into a five meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he'll probably be in deep trouble."
At the spectator area, Perfected Being Yun Shan of Southern Mountains Sect was secretly delighted as he thought to himself, "Seems like Su Zimo's storage bag is going to land in the hands of my Southern Mountains Sect!"
…
Su Zimo passed through the Tier 4 killing array and arrived at the Wood Region.
Although the journey was more daunting than dangerous, Su Zimo's mental state and spirit energy were extremely depleted and his green robes were already drenched in sweat.
This was a Grade 4 killing array. If it was a Grade 5 one, Su Zimo reckoned that even with his sharp spirit perception, his body would not be able to react in time and he would die inside!
It was way too dangerous!
Behind him was a Grade 4 killing array and there were no cultivators nearby.
Withdrawing two superior-grade spirit stones from his storage bag, Su Zimo sped forward while recovering his spirit energy.
He had to recover his spirit energy to its peak before the next Grade 4 killing array. Therefore, Su Zimo chose to conserve his spirit energy and did not ride on his sword. Instead, he sprinted on the ground without slowing down.
Along the way, Su Zimo saw many signs of fighting.
In fact, some cultivators did not manage to crush their jade talismans in time and died here – their corpses were still warm.
"Eh?"
A moment later, a soft exclamation sounded.
A figure flashed in front of him and blocked Su Zimo's path.
Su Zimo raised his head and saw that it was the legacy disciple of Southern Mountains Sect, Shi Jian. He was one of the favorites for the Spirit Ranking this time round and was said to be at five meridian Foundation Establishment as well.
"I'm Shi Jian. Greetings, Mr. Mo."
To Su Zimo's surprise, Shi Jian was different from the other cultivators and did not attack directly. Instead, he cupped his fists and greeted him.
When Su Zimo saw that this person looked honest, his impression of him improved and he nodded.
"Mr. Mo, are you in the Wood Region as well? This is the first time I'm seeing you," There was no way Shi Jian knew that Su Zimo had passed through the Water Region.
Su Zimo did not explain and merely smiled.
Shi Jian looked uneasy and hesitated, as though he was embarrassed to say something.
"What's the matter?" Su Zimo raised his brow slightly.
Shi Jian hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, I'm also here for Mr. Mo's Blood Quencher."
Su Zimo's gaze turned cold.
Shi Jian bowed hurriedly and explained, "B-But that's not my intention. I can't disobey my master's orders. Please forgive me, fellow Daoist."
When Su Zimo saw that Shi Jian was sincere and did not seem like he was lying, his expression softened and the killing intent in his heart dissipated gradually.
Shi Jian continued, "Mr. Mo, don't worry. I won't harm your life. Furthermore, Mr. Mo, in exchange, I'll do my best to help you obtain a spot on the Spirit Ranking! "
There were two spots in every region.
Shi Jian's words meant that he would do his best to help Su Zimo obtain the other spot in the Wood Region.
Su Zimo smiled without saying anything.
Shi Jian did not know what happened in the Water Region or Su Zimo's motive.
When he saw Su Zimo's smile, he misunderstood and pondered for a long time before saying, "Mr. Mo, I know that perfect spirit weapons are priceless, but there's not much I can do. How about this? I'll help you obtain a spot on the Spirit Ranking and I'll give you all the treasures in my storage bag? "
"Let's fight. There's no need to say anything else."
Su Zimo said indifferently with a calm expression.
"Ah?
Shi Jian was stunned for a moment and asked in a daze, "Mr. Mo, you want to fight me? If I'm not wrong, you've just advanced to three meridian Foundation Establishment while I'm at five meridian Foundation Establishment. You're not my match. "
Su Zimo smiled gently. "If you defeat me, Blood Quencher will naturally be yours."
After pondering for a moment, Shi Jian nodded with a confused expression, as though he could not understand Su Zimo's intentions.
Shi Jian took out a Chaos Essence Steel Rod from his storage bag that was etched with complicated patterns. After injecting spirit energy, three spirit patterns shone on the rod!
It was a superior-grade spirit weapon!
"Mr. Mo, you've got to be careful. Southern Mountains Sect has strong physiques and we specialize in melee combat."
As though he was afraid that Su Zimo did not know of his prowess, Shi Jian reminded him once more.
Su Zimo nodded.
After a while, Shi Jian saw that Su Zimo was still empty-handed without any flying sword or other spirit weapons. He coughed gently and reminded kindly, "Mr. Mo, if you're up against cultivators like us who specialize in melee combat, you've got to make use of weapons like flying swords to stop us from closing in and try your best to widen the distance."
Shi Jian gestured seriously and said, "Look, with your current state, I'll be able to reach you in the blink of an eye after sprinting a few steps. By then, it'll be too late for you to summon your flying sword. You'll be defeated in a single move. "
Outside the Five Elements Umbrella, more than a hundred thousand cultivators watched everything with dumbfounded expressions.
Xue Yi could not help but lament, "Brother Shi is truly an honest man!"
