"Su Mo, don't think so much. Hurry up and cultivate!" After the First Elder left, Long Teng sighed and said to Su Mo.
What would come would come. If Su Mo's luck was exceptional, the Thousand Choices Battle would not be a dead end.
"Mm!" Su Mo nodded his head expressionlessly. However, his heart was heavy. He was really worried.
Or rather, he was afraid!
He wasn't afraid of dying, but he was afraid of the Firmament Palace.
In the Firmament Palace, there were not only his father, son, lover, but also many of his old friends.
If Di Yihun or Di Yihun's people were allowed to descend to the Mortal World, it would be a fatal blow to him.
Whew ~
Taking a deep breath, Su Mo turned around and walked back to the secret room. He could only wait.
Long Teng saw Su Mo's heavy expression and sighed helplessly. He was also worried.
Once he returned to the secret room, Su Mo immediately took out a large number of Dawn Stones and prepared to break through to the next rank.
Originally, he had planned to wait for another half a year or so for his cultivation rank to stabilize and then break through to the next rank.
However, the urgency in his heart was getting stronger and he couldn't wait to break through to the next rank.
Buzz buzz ~ ~
Su Mo released his Devouring Primordial Spirit and in an instant, all the Dawn Stones were devoured by him.
The rolling Five Elements Source Qi was like a surging river that rushed into Su Mo's body. He immediately tried to refine all the Source Qi into Chaotic Source.
A strong aura surged in the secret room endlessly.
Time passed by quickly. Day after day, a total of five days had passed. The Empty Space in the secret room shook and all the aura disappeared.
Lower Grade Four!
After a few days of hard work, Su Mo had finally broken through and entered the Lower Grade Four Realm.
The reason why he had spent a total of five days was because his cultivation base was not strong enough and the time he had to stabilize it was too short.
This time, because he had forcefully broken through to the next rank, the amount of Dawn Stones he had used was more than ten times that of the previous time.
"I have finally entered the Lower Grade Four Realm!" Su Mo sighed. He wasn't happy. That was because a Lower Grade Four Realm was nothing compared to Di Yihun and Tuoba Qingyun.
Furthermore, due to his forceful breakthrough, the Chaos Origin Energy in his body was rather unstable. He needed more time to refine it.
Su Mo did not come out of seclusion but continued to cultivate. He condensed the Chaotic Source and comprehended the Devouring Law.
Time flew by in the blink of an eye. Soon, another three months had passed.
On this day, Long Teng came looking for him again.
"Su Mo, the date of the Thousand Candidates Battle has been set. The First Elder has just informed me!" Long Teng reported to Su Mo with a serious expression.
"Oh, when?" Su Mo asked in a low voice.
"Five years later!" Draco said.
"Five years? What are the specific rules? " Su Mo asked hurriedly. This was the most important event. No matter when it was held, it would be useless if he could not attend.
"Rules are unclear!"
Long Teng's expression was extremely solemn, and his voice was filled with worry as he said, "The specific rules of the Thousand Choices Battle have not been decided yet, but the qualifications to participate have been discussed!"
"What qualifications do I need?" Su Mo asked anxiously.
"From Rank 5 to Rank 9, as long as they are geniuses, they have the right to participate. However, each superpower cannot send more than 10 people to participate." Long Teng's face was solemn. This was the result of a discussion between the various God Dynasties and he could not influence the decision.
Even Dragon Emperor Dong Xu could not make a decision on his own.
"Rank 5 to Rank 9?" Su Mo's eyebrows instantly furrowed together. The qualifications to participate excluded him and Long Teng.
Currently, he had just broken through to Lower Rank 4. Long Teng's cultivation had also improved rapidly due to his evolved Blood Force. However, he was only a Middle Rank 4 Martial Artist.
"This kind of qualification practically excludes the two of us. This is intentional." Long Teng sighed.
"Will the Dragon Emperor agree to this?" Su Mo's face darkened. This was extremely disadvantageous to the Dragon Tribe. After all, he and Long Teng's talents were basically the best in Deity Domain. Excluding the two of them was obviously against the Dragon Tribe.
"Initially, the Dragon Emperor did not agree. However, there was nothing he could do as the other God Dynasties basically agreed!"
Long Teng said in a deep voice. With that, he paused for a while before continuing, "However, the Dragon Emperor tried his best to fight for it. The original decision was for Rank 6 to Rank 9 Martial Artists to participate. However, the Dragon Emperor set the minimum requirement at Rank 5 Martial Artists. As long as I can reach Rank 5 Martial Artists within 5 years, I can participate in the Selection Battle."
"This is indeed an opportunity!" Su Mo nodded his head. This was an opportunity that the Dragon Emperor had fought for for the Dragon Tribe. It was also an opportunity that the other God Dynasties had given to the Dragon Tribe.
However, even if Long Teng could participate, Su Mo was still worried.
"Within 5 years, can you reach Rank 5 Martial Artists?" Su Mo asked in a deep voice.
"I can only say that there is hope." Long Teng sighed. Even though his talent was heaven-defying and he had access to endless resources, it wasn't easy for him to make a breakthrough at his current level.
"I have to think of a way to participate!" Su Mo's eyes flashed with determination. Rank 5 Martial Artists? It was not impossible for him to reach Rank 5 Martial Artists within 5 years.
"Su Mo, don't force yourself. Even if you can't participate, as long as I participate, I will definitely obtain the right to change the Divine Array." Long Teng patted his chest and guaranteed. He knew that Su Mo was worried. After all, this concerned the life and death of everyone in the Firmament Palace.
However, Su Mo's current cultivation rank was lower than his. It would be too difficult for him to reach Rank 5 Martial Artists within 5 years.
"I must participate." Su Mo said solemnly.
"Alright, I will get you some precious resources to help you." Long Teng sighed helplessly.
"Mm!" Su Mo nodded his head. With sufficient resources, there would be more hope.
However, he could not continue to stay in the Dragon Tribe. He had to leave Dragon Capital and go to the Spacetime Domain.
"Su Mo, you don't have to worry too much. The rules of the Thousand Candidates Battle are very fair. There will not be many advantages based on a high cultivation rank and there will not be many advantages for those with high talents." Long Teng comforted him.
"There won't be many advantages. Then those with high cultivation ranks or talents will still have some advantages!" Su Mo pondered as he pondered over his next move.
"Of course, there are a few people who have a great advantage in this Thousand Candidates Battle!" Long Teng nodded his head.
"Those few? Is there anyone from the Sky Palace? "Su Mo asked anxiously. This was what he was concerned about.
"There isn't anyone from the Sky Palace!"
Long Teng shook his head and said, "There are over a thousand eternal geniuses in the Divine Realm. Within the Nine Divine Dynasties, the most talented eternal geniuses of each dynasty are collectively known as the Nine Princes. These nine people are extremely powerful in terms of talent and strength."
"Nine Young Masters!" Su Mo muttered to himself. The talents of these people must be ordinary compared to him and Long Teng. It was mainly because their cultivation ranks were higher.
"Of course, some of the Eternal Talents may be slightly less talented than the Nine Young Masters. However, they have Rank 9 cultivation ranks and should not be underestimated." Long Teng continued.
"I am not sure of the specific rules. We can only see when the time comes!" Su Mo sighed. If he could not participate, there was no point in knowing who the geniuses were.
"Among the Nine Young Masters, there is one person who is beneficial to you." Long Teng's tone changed as a smile appeared on his face.
"Who?" Su Mo asked curiously.
"Master Ye, Ye Lingtian. He is a disciple of King Man Palace. His Rank 9 cultivation rank is only half a step away from the King God Realm. He is extremely talented and before Tian Chenyu broke through to the King God Realm, he was only slightly weaker than Tian Chenyu." Long Teng said in a deep voice.
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Su Mo's eyes instantly lit up as he recalled.
Ye Lingtian, the strongest King Sage in Dark Region's King Sage Hall, was now a disciple of King Man Palace. When Su Mo was at King Man Palace, he had heard rumors about Ye Lingtian. Ye Lingtian's existence was indeed beneficial to him.
"However, there are also unfavorable things."
At that moment, Long Teng's face darkened again as he said, "Recently, Emperor Palace has been very unstable. Di Yihun and Heaven Lord River have been visiting the various God Dynasties. I don't know what they are up to, but they should be trying to get the various God Dynasties to deal with you and Tuoba Qingyun."
"I am not worried about that. Earth King Palace will not sit back and watch Di Yihun try to get the various God Dynasties to his side!" Su Mo shook his head. Tuoba Qingyun's existence could be said to be crucial.
Tuoba Qingyun was there to keep Di Yihun in check and was also indirectly helping him.
"I hope so!" Long Teng sighed.
"Long Teng, I want to leave Dragon Capital. I will definitely be back before the Thousand Selection Battle!" Su Mo stared at Long Teng and said solemnly.
"Su Mo, this is too dangerous!" Long Teng's face changed slightly. Even if he thought with his toes, he would know that Dragon Capital was definitely being closely monitored by Emperor Palace and Earth King Palace.
"I have to leave. If I don't, I won't even be able to reach Upper Grade Four Cultivation within five years." Su Mo said solemnly. He had to take the risk. Firmament Palace was simply too important to him.
He had to obtain the right to replace the Deity Domain Divine Array for the Dragon Tribe and he could not afford to lose it.
"This …!" Long Teng frowned. He did not want Su Mo to take the risk, but he knew that Su Mo was determined.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me!" Su Mo patted Long Teng's shoulder. Emperor Palace and Earth King Palace did not dare to openly monitor the Dragon Tribe. It would be easy for him to sneak out.
"Alright, I will arrange it for you!" Long Teng saw that Su Mo was determined and after a moment of silence, he nodded his head in agreement. As long as the arrangements were made, the risk would not be too high.
"Mm, hurry up!" Su Mo nodded his head.
