The underground world was so big that Su Mo hadn't reached the end even after wandering for an hour.
He didn't encounter any danger, nor did he see anyone else.
However, along the way, Su Mo encountered some fresh corpses from time to time, including those of new disciples and black Demonic Insects.
Of course, Su Mo wouldn't waste the blood essence, so he swallowed the blood essence whenever he saw a corpse.
He could devour a large amount of blood essence without exerting any effort, which was much faster than hunting demonic beasts and devouring their blood essence.
However, the Demonic Cores of these Demonic Insects had been taken away, and Su Mo didn't see any Spiritual Herbs along the way, so they must have been taken away by the geniuses.
Su Mo was not in a hurry. Even if he didn't have any Spiritual Herbs or Demonic Cores, he was very happy to obtain a large amount of blood essence.
As long as his cultivation could continue to increase, he would not be afraid of not having Demonic Cores!
"Lv 2 Demonic Insects?"
At this moment, Su Mo's eyes lit up when he saw several more corpses in front of him. There were three Demonic Insects and two martial artists.
The three Demonic Insects were obviously twice as big as the previous ones, and they were as big as a bull's head.
Su Mo was overjoyed and hurried to devour them.
Although the amount of blood essence of these three Demonic Insects was not as much as that of the two martial artists, the Blood Qi in their blood essence was seven or eight times more than that of the two martial artists.
As the Blood Qi entered his body, Su Mo hurriedly refined it, and his cultivation soared again.
Before long, his cultivation advanced from the late Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm to the Peak Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm, and there was still a large amount of Blood Qi raging in his body that had not been refined.
Su Mo sat down and tried hard to refine the Blood Qi and condense genuine Qi.
With such a strong support of Blood Qi, even if he couldn't directly break through the bottleneck and reach the Spiritual Martial Realm, he would at least reach the level of a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm.
The genuine Qi in the body of a martial artist in the Spiritual Martial Realm had already transformed into congenital genuine Qi.
The so-called half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm was actually just a transition period, not a real realm.
The genuine Qi in the body of a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm had already transformed into congenital genuine Qi, but they had not yet reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. They were much stronger than the martial artists at the Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm, so this stage was called the half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm.
After the majestic Blood Qi was refined into genuine Qi, the genuine Qi in Su Mo's elixir field surged and filled his entire elixir field, and there was even more genuine Qi flowing into his meridians.
A large amount of genuine Qi made Su Mo's elixir field ache. He tried his best to compress his genuine Qi.
When the amount of genuine Qi in Su Mo's elixir field reached a critical point, the center of genuine Qi suddenly collapsed and formed a genuine Qi vortex.
The True Qi whirlpool rotated slowly, and the True Qi in his Dantian slowly converged and merged into the whirlpool, which gradually expanded.
After a while, Su Mo had refined all the Blood Qi he had devoured, and all the genuine Qi in his elixir field merged into the vortex. The genuine Qi vortex grew several times larger and occupied half of Su Mo's elixir field.
The True Energy Vortex was formed by the condensation of True Energy. It was extremely condensed, almost to the point of liquefying.
Suddenly, wisps of pure Xiantian Qi emerged from the center of the Real Qi whirlpool and merged with the Real Qi.
Half a step to the Spiritual Martial Realm!
In the next moment, Su Mo suddenly opened his eyes. His shining eyes shot out two bright rays of light in the dark space.
"It's time to fight for Demonic Cores and Spiritual Herbs!"
Su Mo clenched his fists tightly and smiled as he felt the surge of power in his body.
Now that his cultivation had reached a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm, there was no need for him to devour a large amount of blood essence for a period of time.
Because even if there was a large amount of Essence Blood, he wasn't prepared to devour it.
In less than two days, Su Mo had devoured a large amount of blood essence, and his cultivation had soared from the Peak Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm to a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm.
He had to settle down for a period of time and refine his True Qi before he could make another breakthrough.
Su Mo cultivated the Primordial Qi Skill, so his Primordial Genuine Qi was very pure and condensed. But now he felt that the genuine Qi in his body had become quite heterogeneous, and its purity had greatly decreased.
If he forcibly broke through to the Spiritual Martial Realm in this state, it would definitely affect his martial arts foundation. Therefore, he would not rashly break through to the Spiritual Martial Realm.
After a sigh, Su Mo immediately identified the direction and flew forward like a ghost.
After a few miles, there was a strong fluctuation of Genuine Qi in front of him, accompanied by a series of roars. Su Mo was shocked and hurriedly concealed his breath to sneak over.
Soon, Su Mo saw the scene in front of him.
In front of him, there were more than 100 black giant insects madly besieging a group of youths.
There were more than 20 youths in this group. Su Mo took a closer look and found not only the four geniuses, Yan Qi, Wu Kui, and Feng Zilan, but also Luo Qianfan.
In front of them, there was an open space with a towering tree that was more than 300 meters high. The tree was extremely thick, and its trunk was like a giant pillar that reached the sky. From the ground of this underground world, it reached the top of the tree, which was more than 300 meters high, and directly inserted into the mountain rocks.
On the trunk of the giant tree, there were a large number of gray lumps, which were as big as watermelons, densely covering the trunk of the giant tree.
Su Mo took a closer look and found that each of these gray lumps was alive. They were insect eggs.
This must be the breeding ground of the black demonic insects.
There were not only a large number of insect eggs on the giant tree, but there were also nine fist-sized red fruits on the branches of the giant tree. The nine fruits were surrounded by red light, and Su Mo could smell a faint fragrance even from more than 100 meters away.
"What kind of Spiritual Fruit is this?"
Su Mo's eyes lit up. Although he did not know this fruit, he guessed that it was not ordinary, or these people would not be here.
Obviously, these people were besieged by the insects for the Spiritual Fruit on the tree.
Su Mo did not rush up to snatch it, but carefully observed the situation.
Among the hundreds of Demonic Insects, there were at least 10 at Lv 2 Class Demonic Beasts, which were comparable to martial artists at Lv 2 Spiritual Martial Realm.
The rest of the Demonic Insects were mostly Class 9 Lv 1 Demonic Beasts, and the weakest one was Class 8 Lv 1.
The cultivation of these 20 new disciples was not weak either. Eight experts at the Spiritual Martial Realm, including the five geniuses, were all present.
Most of the others were at the Peak of Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm, and some were even a half step to the Spiritual Martial Realm.
However, although they were strong, they were still no match for the Demonic Insects.
Many of them were injured, and they were in a dangerous situation.
Luo Qianfan dealt with one of the three Class 2 Lv 2 Demonic Beasts, and the other two were besieged by Wu Kui, Cao Yuan, and the others.
Although the three Class 2 Lv 2 Demonic Beasts were temporarily pinned down, the other Class 1 Lv 2 Demonic Beasts were unstoppable, and the disciples kept retreating.
The carapace of the Demonic Insects was hard, and those who were not strong enough could not break its defense. The mouthparts of the Demonic Insects were extremely sharp, and they could tear off a large piece of flesh with one bite.
"Huang Yunqing, you block it. I'll go pick the Empty Spirit Fruit!"
At this time, Wu Kui and a tall young man were fighting a Class 2 Lv 2 Demonic Insect. They suddenly shouted, turned around, and rushed to the giant tree, abandoning the Demonic Beast.
"Senior Brother Wu, I …"
Huang Yunqing was shocked, but he did not have time to think. The Demonic Insect in front of him attacked again, and the sharp teeth in its ferocious mouthparts were shining.
Ho!
Huang Yunqing shouted loudly and released his Martial Spirit to resist the Demonic Insect's attack with all his strength.
Huang Yunqing's Martial Soul was a cyan ferocious bird, with sharp eyes and fierce light.
Huang Yunqing used his Martial Soul and exerted all his strength. Although he was still no match for the Demonic Insect, he managed to resist it.
Wu Kui rushed to the giant tree, and soon he was close to it. Looking at the nine red fruits on the branches, he was very excited.
When he was about to jump on the giant tree, he suddenly heard a shrill sound behind him.
Wu Kui was shocked and hurriedly dodged to one side. Immediately, a black light passed by him.
It was an arrow!
"Luo Qianfan, what are you doing?"
Wu Kui turned his head and glared at Luo Qianfan. The arrow was shot by Luo Qianfan.
"Wu Kui, do you want to keep the Empty Spirit Fruit?"
Luo Qianfan sneered while fighting with the Demonic Insect.
