With that, Su Mo increased his refining speed and thick Dark Force wrapped around the Silver Birth Fruit.
Very quickly, the Silver Birth Fruit started to melt under Su Mo's refining and a strange medicinal power flowed into Su Mo's body.
The medicinal power flowed through his body and continuously merged with his Dark Force.
Thick Dark Force flowed through Su Mo's body one big circulation after another.
"The effect is not bad!" Su Mo's face lit up with joy. He felt that with the medicinal power of the Silver Birth Fruit, he would be able to condense Dark Force and solidify his cultivation at least 10 times faster.
Indeed, resources were the most important thing in this world.
With all sorts of powerful resources, even a useless person could become a peerless genius.
However, Su Mo quickly became depressed. Although the medicinal power of the Silver Birth Fruit had increased his speed of condensing Dark Force by 10 times, the medicinal power of the Silver Birth Fruit was being used up very quickly.
In a mere 8 hours, the medicinal power of the Silver Birth Fruit had been completely refined.
Whew!
Su Mo heaved a sigh of relief. He had cultivated for more than eight hours, which was equivalent to the effect of five days of cultivation.
Moreover, he had a total of 18 Silver Birth Fruits. If he were to consume the remaining 17 fruits, it would be equivalent to three months' worth of cultivation.
By then, even if his foundation wasn't completely solid, it would be enough. After cultivating for a while, he would be able to break through to the Rank 8 Martial Honorable Realm.
With that, Su Mo did not hesitate to consume the Silver Birth Fruit again.
The remaining 17 Silver Birth Fruits were consumed by Su Mo in a few days but he did not come out of seclusion and continued to cultivate.
In the following days, Su Mo did not step out of his room and continued to cultivate in the cultivation room.
However, his days weren't peaceful. In less than 10 days, his creditors came knocking on his door.
"Su Mo, come out quickly!"
A cold voice rang out in Su Mo's mansion, jolting him awake.
He walked out of the cultivation room and scanned the area with his spiritual senses. He couldn't help but frown as he saw 5 people standing in front of his mansion.
These people were either elders or middle-aged men. Their auras were vast and pure, deep and unfathomable. It was evident that they were all Martial Sages.
The person in the lead was the hunchbacked Di Lao with an aged face. Beside Di Lao was a short and strong old man wearing a dark gray robe. His face was gloomy.
The cold shout just now was obviously not from Di Lao. Instead, it was from a short and stocky old man.
Su Mo strode out, opened the gate of the mansion, and walked to Di Lao's side.
"Greetings, Elder Di. What can I do for you?" Su Mo cupped his fists at Di Lao and asked in a deep voice.
"Su Mo, this is Hu Sheng from the Empty Sky Sect!" Di Lao pointed at the short elder beside him and said to Su Mo.
A bright light flashed across Su Mo's eyes. So this person was Hu Sheng of the Empty Sky Sect. Was he here for the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda?
"Greetings, Senior Hu Sheng!" Su Mo did not forget his manners as he cupped his fists towards Hu Sheng.
"Su Mo, you have used my Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda for so long, isn't it time to return it?" Hu Sheng's face darkened as he coldly said.
Knowing that Su Mo had returned and was in the Sun Moon Tribe, Hu Sheng had rushed over to the Sun Moon Tribe.
It would be a lie to say that he was not anxious these two years. Su Mo had not returned and Hu Sheng was unable to find any traces of Su Mo. Thus, he could only wait.
After waiting for two years, Su Mo had finally returned.
"Return it?"
Su Mo immediately shook his head and said, "Senior Hu Sheng, please forgive me for not being able to do so. The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda is my spoils of war from killing Li Hentian and it is my personal item."
How could he give the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda to Hu Sheng so easily?
The pagoda was an Upper Sacred Weapon and it was extremely valuable. It would be of great use to him.
"What did you say?" When Hu Sheng heard what Su Mo had said, the anger that he had been suppressing for two years exploded in an instant. His voice was filled with anger.
Su Mo actually refused to give it to him?
Did he want to take his treasures for himself?
Hu Sheng's heart was filled with curses. If not for Di Lao and the other Martial Sages of the True Path Sect, he would have killed Su Mo with a single slap.
"Senior, please leave!" Su Mo stared at Hu Sheng and said in a low voice. He was no longer afraid of Hu Sheng.
Furthermore, with Di Lao around, Hu Sheng would definitely be wary of him.
Even if Su Mo could not keep the pagoda, he had to make Hu Sheng pay a price. He could not take back the pagoda so easily.
Hu Sheng had given the pagoda to Li Hentian and Li Hentian wanted to kill him. It was obvious that Hu Sheng wanted to kill him as well. How could Su Mo return the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda so easily?
"Su Mo, does that mean that you want to take my pagoda for yourself?" Hu Sheng's eyes widened in anger as he tried his best to suppress his urge to attack Su Mo.
"Senior, you are wrong. I have already said that the pagoda is my spoils of war from killing Li Hentian and it is my personal item. How can you say that you want to take it for yourself?" Su Mo said without changing his expression.
"How dare you! You killed an Empty Sky Sect genius and you still dare to speak so righteously!" Hu Sheng was completely enraged and his palm moved as he prepared to attack.
However, right at that moment, Di Lao lifted his arm and blocked Hu Sheng's path, stopping Hu Sheng.
"Hu Sheng, you are not young anymore, why are you so hot-tempered?" Di Lao lightly said, his face expressionless.
"Di Lao, you have seen it for yourself. This Su Mo is twisting words and forcing logic. He actually wants to take my Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda for himself. How can I tolerate this?" Hu Sheng said angrily.
Di Lao fell silent for a moment before he looked at Su Mo and said, "Su Mo, this Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda is Hu Sheng's famed weapon. Everyone knows this. Tell me how you obtained the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda."
Su Mo nodded his head and said, "Di Lao, you might not know this, but in the Ancient Demon Cemetery, Empty Sky Sect disciple Li Hentian held the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda and chased after me to kill me. In the end, I killed him and the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda became my spoils of war.
Why should I return such a spoil of war?
Furthermore, since the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda is Hu Sheng's weapon, it is obvious why he lent it to Li Hentian.
A person who wanted to kill me failed and still wants me to return the weapon? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world? "
Su Mo's words were clear as he gave a simple account of what had happened, clearly showing his attitude.
Hu Sheng was inwardly angry. However, he was indeed in the wrong. Back then, he had given the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda to Li Hentian to kill Su Mo.
However, he had never imagined that Li Hentian would fail and die. Even the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda had been snatched away by Su Mo.
Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Di Lao's face remained calm as he turned to Hu Sheng and said, "Hu Sheng, Su Mo's words make sense. You lent the weapon to someone else to kill him. In the end, the weapon was taken by Su Mo. He has no reason to return it!"
With that, Di Lao shook his head and sighed, "Sigh, you can only blame yourself for lending your weapon to someone else!"
