In a spacious room, Su Mo and his father, Su Hong, stood opposite each other.
Before Su Mo left, he found his father and bid farewell to him.
"Father, I'm leaving!"
Su Mo handed a storage ring to his father and said solemnly. Once he left, he would face an unknown disaster, and he might not be able to come back.
He gave all the 90 billion Spiritual Stones he had to Su Hong. He did not need them anymore.
Su Hong's face was full of worry. He naturally knew where his son was going this time.
He knew better than anyone about the five-year agreement between Su Mo and Shangguan Hao. After all, he was there when Shangguan Hao took Xi 'er away.
Now, there were many rumors that Shangguan Hao and Xi 'er were going to get married, and the battle between Su Mo and Shangguan Hao had also spread across the Central Continent.
Therefore, Su Hong knew that his son's departure this time was to fulfill the five-year promise.
"Mo 'er, why are you so stubborn?"
Su Hong shook his head and said with a frown, "With your talent, you can definitely become the top expert in the continent. You don't have to take the risk!"
In Su Hong's opinion, there was no need for Su Mo to fulfill the five-year agreement.
Su Hong did not know Su Mo's current strength, but he estimated that it would be more difficult for Su Mo to defeat Shangguan Hao because Shangguan Hao was too famous.
Moreover, Shangguan Hao had the backing of the Emperor Xuan Palace. Su Mo's challenge would be like throwing an egg against a stone.
The best choice now was to lie low for a few years. After a few years, when he was strong enough, defeating Shangguan Hao would not be a problem.
Although Xi 'er would be someone else's wife by then, there were many good women in the world. There was no need for Su Mo to be stubborn.
"Father, everyone has their own persistence in this world!"
Su Mo sighed and continued, "If you only know how to compromise with reality, and can't stick to your heart and persistence, then what's the difference between you and a salted fish?"
Hearing his son's words, Su Hong was stunned and did not know how to refute.
Su Mo's words were so philosophical that he could not find a reason to refute.
"Father, I'm leaving. If I don't come back in three months, disband the Firmament Sect!" Su Mo said and solemnly bowed to his father.
Then, without another word, he leaped into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.
Looking in the direction of Su Mo's departure, Su Hong was in a daze, his face extremely solemn.
If Su Mo did not return, there was indeed no need for Firmament Sect to exist.
Without Su Mo, the Firmament Sect would have lost its soul. With the strength of the Hall Chiefs, it was impossible for them to lead the entire sect.
…
After leaving Qingyuan City, Su Mo flew straight to the south, where the Emperor Xuan Palace was located.
There was still a month and a half left before the 8th of October. With Su Mo's current cultivation, he could reach Emperor Xuan Palace in five days.
Therefore, Su Mo still had plenty of time to improve his cultivation.
After flying for two days, Su Mo found a large mountain range.
This mountain range was like a giant dragon that stretched across the earth. It was extremely long, and one could not see the end of it at a glance.
The roars of beasts resounded in the mountain range, and the strong demonic aura dyed the white clouds in the sky black.
Whoosh!
Su Mo dashed into the mountains like a bolt of lightning.
Buzz ~ ~
After entering the mountains, Su Mo immediately released his Devouring Martial Soul and exerted its devouring power to the extreme.
In an instant, the powerful devouring power enveloped a radius of more than a thousand kilometers.
Then, Su Mo strode in the mountains.
A horrifying scene appeared. Wherever Su Mo's body passed, all living beings within a radius of more than a thousand miles exploded and died.
A large amount of blood mixed with demonic power turned into streams and gathered toward Su Mo.
Not only demonic beasts, but also various herbs, spiritual herbs, and everything that contained Spiritual Qi. All of their Spiritual Qi exploded and quickly gathered toward Su Mo.
Su Mo slowed down as he walked in the mountains, devouring as he walked.
Blood Qi, demonic power, Spiritual Qi, and demonic power were all devoured by Su Mo's body. Su Mo tried his best to refine them, and his cultivation slowly increased.
However, he was only at the periphery of the mountains, where the density of demonic beasts was low, so he could only devour a small amount.
However, as Su Mo went deeper into the mountains, the number of demonic beasts increased, and they became stronger.
These demonic beasts could not resist Su Mo's devouring power at all, and they all exploded and died.
A huge blood ball had already formed outside Su Mo's body, and it was getting bigger and bigger. It rumbled forward and crushed countless trees and thorns.
This scene was extremely terrifying. Looking down from the sky, it seemed that there was a huge blood-colored demonic beast moving slowly in the mountains.
Time flew by, and after six hours, Su Mo had walked tens of thousands of kilometers in the mountains. His cultivation finally reached the peak of Lv 1 Martial King Realm, and then he continued to devour to break through to Lv 2 Martial King Realm.
Rumble!
A large amount of blood Qi and demonic power was refined and poured into the five divine elixirs, which shook violently.
Because of the breakthrough, Su Mo's speed of absorbing blood Qi and demonic power increased greatly.
Soon, the blood ball outside his body was completely refined, and Su Mo continued to move forward.
Roar!
Not long after, a King-level demonic beast appeared about a thousand kilometers ahead of Su Mo.
It was a black Demonic Leopard that was more than a hundred meters long. When it saw Su Mo, it immediately roared and flew into the sky, fleeing toward the depths of the mountains.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Su Mo shouted and chased after the Demonic Leopard.
He would not let go of a King-level demonic beast, which was a good resource to devour.
Swoosh!
The Demonic Leopard was extremely fast, like a black lightning. It tore through the void and traveled thousands of kilometers in an instant. Its speed was incredibly fast.
"So fast!"
Su Mo was extremely surprised that the Demonic Leopard was so much faster than him that he could not catch up with it.
Then, Su Mo used his mind, and a Natal Spiritual Sword appeared under his feet.
Swish!
Su Mo activated the Natal Spiritual Sword, and his speed suddenly increased several times. He chased after the Demonic Leopard like lightning.
Su Mo's speed was unparalleled, and he rapidly approached the Demonic Leopard.
This Demonic Leopard was a Lv 1 King Demonic Beast. When it saw Su Mo chasing after it, its ferocious face showed fear.
It felt that its blood and demonic power were getting out of control as Su Mo approached.
Then, with a flash of black light, the Demonic Leopard turned into a middle-aged man in black with a long and narrow face.
"Boy, we have no quarrel. Why are you chasing after me?" The middle-aged man in black roared.
All King-level demonic beasts had the ability to transform. Seeing that it could not escape, the Demonic Leopard immediately turned into a human.
"No why?"
