In a valley on Qingyuan Island.
At this moment, the valley was in a mess, with broken limbs scattered all over the ground.
The corpses of dozens of Iron-teeth Wolves were shriveled like rotten wood.
Beside the corpses, a young man in teal sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. He had a handsome face with starry eyebrows and sharp eyes.
The young man was Su Mo.
After a while, Su Mo opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of turbid Qi.
The blood essence of dozens of Iron-teeth Wolves had improved his cultivation a lot, and he was close to the middle stage of the Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm.
The only pity was that his Devouring Martial Spirit had not advanced after devouring so many Beast Souls and Martial Souls.
This made Su Mo secretly anxious. Although his current strength was very strong among the new disciples, if he could not improve his Martial Soul, his cultivation would become slower and slower, and he would soon be surpassed by others.
Moreover, there were so many senior disciples in Gale Island, whose cultivation and strength could not be compared with those of the new disciples. If his strength could not improve quickly, how could he compete with those people?
Although his Martial Soul could devour blood essence, he could not improve his cultivation by devouring it all the time.
He had found that although it was fast to improve his cultivation by devouring blood essence, it also had some disadvantages.
Every time he devoured a large amount of blood essence, the genuine Qi in his body would become heterogeneous, and the more he devoured, the worse the situation would be. In the long run, it would definitely affect his foundation.
Therefore, after devouring a large amount of blood essence, Su Mo needed some time to consolidate his cultivation and condense genuine Qi to strengthen his foundation.
After a while, Su Mo glanced at the messy valley and got up to leave.
As for the three Jadeglow Herbs, Su Mo was not in a hurry to use them. His top priority now was to devour continuously.
When his cultivation reached the Peak of the Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm or even a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm, the three Jadeglow Herbs might help him break through the realm.
In the forest, Su Mo was like a peerless God of Slaughter, who was unstoppable. All the demonic beasts he encountered, regardless of their level, died tragically.
Of course, all the demonic beasts he killed were Lv 1, and so far no Lv 2 demonic beasts had appeared.
When Su Mo killed dozens of demonic beasts and it was getting dark, he coincidentally met Li Feng.
At this moment, Li Feng's Qi was weak, his face was pale, his clothes were torn, and his body was covered with blood.
Li Feng was running through the forest, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood. Clearly, he was heavily injured.
"Su Mo, why are you here?"
Li Feng stopped in his tracks and asked weakly when he saw Su Mo.
"Li Feng, how did you suffer such heavy injuries?"
Su Mo walked up to Li Feng and asked in confusion. With Li Feng's strength, few new disciples could hurt him. Did he encounter a Lv 2 demonic beast?
"Su Mo, I …!"
Just as Li Feng was about to answer, his expression changed, and he vomited another mouthful of blood.
Soon after, Li Feng's body softly fell to the ground. He had actually fainted.
"This …!"
Su Mo was shocked. He hurried forward to check and found that Li Feng's injuries were very serious.
Three of his ribs were broken, and his five viscera and six bowels were severely injured. If he didn't receive treatment, he probably wouldn't live for more than two days.
Su Mo sighed. Since he had met them, he could not sit back and do nothing.
Although Li Feng was arrogant, he was not a bad person and did not hold any grudges against Su Mo.
Su Mo helped Li Feng up and brought him to a nearby cave.
The demonic beasts in this cave had been killed by Su Mo, so it was very safe here.
Su Mo put Li Feng on the stone wall of the cave and fed him a healing elixir. He also infused genuine Qi into Li Feng's body to refine the elixir and stabilize his injuries.
After refining the elixir, Li Feng still showed no signs of waking up. Su Mo had to keep infusing genuine Qi to heal him.
This process lasted for the entire night.
When the next day broke and Su Mo's genuine Qi was exhausted for the third time, Li Feng finally woke up.
"Su Mo, thank you for saving me!"
Li Feng thanked Su Mo with a complicated look in his eyes.
During this period, Li Feng had always regarded Su Mo as his competitor, but he did not expect Su Mo to save him when he was seriously injured.
"We're all brothers in the same sect, so you don't have to thank me!"
Su Mo shook his head and asked, "How did you get so badly injured? Who did this to you? "
Su Mo had carefully examined Li Feng's injuries and ruled out the possibility of a demonic beast. Li Feng's injuries were obviously caused by a martial artist.
"It was Huang Yunqing. He seriously injured me!"
Li Feng gritted his teeth and said with anger flashing in his eyes.
"Who's Huang Yunqing?"
Su Mo sat cross-legged to recover his genuine Qi and asked in confusion.
"Huang Yunqing is one of the eight experts in the Spiritual Martial Realm among the new disciples. Although his Martial Soul is only at Rank 7 Human Class, which is not as good as the five geniuses, he has also reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. He's very powerful," Li Feng said.
"Why did he attack you? Did he want to steal your Demonic Cores?" Su Mo asked again.
"Yes!"
Li Feng nodded and said, "However, he didn't steal the Demonic Cores for himself."
"Not for himself?" Su Mo was confused. If he did not steal the Demonic Cores for himself, who else could he do it for?
"Su Mo, you still don't know the current situation!"
Li Feng shook his head and said, "The new disciples have already been divided into several camps. Among the top five geniuses, except for the mysterious Luo Qianfan, the other four geniuses have each subdued and roped in many people. They are collecting Demon Cores for them."
"They have many people and can sweep everything and rob everywhere. No one can stop them. Huang Yunqing is now in Wu Kui's camp. "
Su Mo frowned. He did not expect that the four geniuses would have such a trick.
If so, the four geniuses would obtain Demonic Cores at a terrifying speed.
If so, it would be very difficult for Su Mo to get into the top five, let alone the first place.
However, what puzzled Su Mo was that an expert in the Spiritual Martial Realm like Huang Yunqing would be willing to work for Wu Kui.
Among the 500 new disciples, only eight had reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. It could be said that with Huang Yunqing's strength, he could easily get into the top 10.
What price did Wu Kui pay to win over Huang Yunqing?
"How are your injuries now?"
After a while, Su Mo asked.
Li Feng looked gloomy and did not have the previous high spirits. He shook his head and said, "My injuries are too serious. I can't recover in a short time! I'm ready to give up. "
Su Mo sighed. Li Feng was telling the truth. He estimated that he would need at least a month to fully recover from his injuries.
"In that case, you can ask the Sect Elder to pick you up!"
After a while, Su Mo recovered most of his genuine Qi. He stood up and looked out of the cave. His eyes flashed and he said, "Don't worry. I'll avenge you."
Li Feng was stunned and then asked in surprise, "Su Mo, are you going to find them?"
Li Feng felt ridiculous. The four geniuses were extremely powerful and had many people. Wasn't it suicide to find them?
"What do you think?"
Su Mo narrowed his eyes and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Su Mo did not want to avenge Li Feng. His relationship with Li Feng was not that good.
He just wanted to get the Demonic Cores, which was much faster than hunting by himself.
As long as he got enough Demonic Cores, he could get the first place in this trial test. 300 contribution points were very tempting.
As for devouring the blood essence of demonic beasts, he would have plenty of time to hunt them after the trial test.
Moreover, if someone was stupid enough to court death, the blood essence of a martial artist would be the same for him.
"Well, I'm leaving. Take care!"
Su Mo said no more and flashed out of the cave.
