Warrior's Promise

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

After telling the Firmament World’s secret, Gold One gazed at Su Mo. “Master, once Trial Testers arrive, the Firmament World will suffer another bloody storm. Ten more years you have.”

Su Mo remained silent. He didn’t expect the truth to be this harsh.

“Master Gold One, how powerful are those Trial Testers? How many of them usually make the visit?” Su Mo asked the questions that concerned him the most. If the enemies were all above the Martial Emperor level, how could he resist them?

“Every time a few hundreds of Trial Testers come. As the Firmament World grows frail, the Trial Testers sent over are increasingly weaker, fortunately!”

A smile climbed on Gold One’s dull face. “There was no warrior of the Martial Emperor Realm or higher among the Trial Testers for their last two visits. I guess there won’t be any this time either.”

“That’s great!” Su Mo relaxed a little. It would be great if no Martial Emperor fighters come. In ten years, he will reach a horrifying level.

By that time, martial artists below the Martial Emperor Realm could pose no threat to him.

Fire One inserted, “Master, there was no Trial Tester of the Martial Emperor Realm but over half of them had the strength of a martial emperor. They were very powerful.”

The crowd was startled. Over half of them had the strength of a Martial Emperor? That would be too strong.

At present, there was not a single one Martial Emperor across the Firmament World. The strongest martial artists were all of the Emperor-to-be cultivation at the Half Way Martial Emperor Realm.

These Emperors-to-be in the Firmament World didn’t have the strength of the Martial Emperor Realm.

Su Mo heaved a sigh. He wasn’t too concerned because he could easily reach the Martial Emperor Realm in ten years.

There was only one thing bothering him. Even if he could resist this calamity, what would happen next?

The Firmament World would still be a piece of meat on the chopping board. The trial site of the sorcerer tribe, the Firmament World had no say in its own fate.

He must destroy the chains and walk out of the Firmament World to help the Firmament World break free from the Sorcerer tribe’s control.

This was the hardest task!

Su Mo lowered his head and pondered with a frown. Gold One and the rest of the Firmament Palace was deadly still and silent.

A moment later, Su Mo glanced at the crowd and said, “Sikong Yan, Wenren Tiandu, and Cai Yun, you three go ahead to arrange your disciples.”

“Yes!”

The three nodded and then each led members of the Firmament Sect, Horned-demon tribe, and Horned-demon Sect out of the Firmament Palace.

Dark One guided Cai Yun out of the hall towards the Darknight Palace.

Soon, only Su Mo and the other eight puppets were left in the Firmament Palace.

“Masters, how many resources are available for use in the Firmament Palace?” Su Mo believed the answer to this question was the key.

As long as there were enough resources, the Firmament Palace could develop rapid. Otherwise, he would have to plunder about.

“Master, the palace has quite some resources in store. Precious resources have been kept well. With just over 100,000 disciples, the Firmament Palace should be able to get by a decade!” Answered Stone One.

Su Mo nodded. The Firmament Palace wouldn’t stop at the current size of 100,000 disciples but these resources should be enough for several years.

Once the Firmament Palace became powerful enough, getting more resources would be easy.

“Master, this is for you from the Earth Palace Master!”

Stone One took out an antique and simple jade bracelet and gently waved his arm to hand it to Su Mo.

Su Mo grabbed the jade bracelet and looked at it carefully. As he injected a tiny stream of his dark force, a slight space fluctuation appeared. Su Mo’s mind dived deeper and entered a vast space.

This bracelet was also a storage device, with a storage space hundreds of times larger than that of the best storage rings.

Inside the space, there were Supreme Spiritual Stones piled up high like mountains, over ten jade slips placed neatly, a large number of Spiritual Herbs, and some weapons.

“Holy Son, the Earth Palace Master selected these treasures specially for you. Here are 20 billion supreme spiritual stones, 18 kinds of imperial upper martial arts techniques, 800 imperial spiritual herbs, and weapons and defensive equipment of all levels,” explained Stone One in a deep voice.

Su Mo drew in a deep breath. How generous the Earth Palace Master was!

Of course, it was the Firmament Palace’s inner power. With these treasures, he could easily climb to the summit of the Firmament World.

If he couldn’t do this, he would awfully let down the Earth Palace Master.

“Masters, I won’t disappoint the Earth Palace Master!”

Su Mo appeared serious. “I’ll be in seclusion for a while. The Firmament Palace is in your care!”

With these many resources, he planned to meditate and cultivate for a while to quickly reach the Martial Royal Realm.

“Master, leave it to us. You can focus on your cultivating.” The puppets answered in unison.

“Alright.”

Su Mo nodded and reminded them, “The disciples are the foundation of the Firmament Palace’s future. Provide them with supreme martial arts techniques, Spiritual Stones, and Spiritual Herbs generously.”

“Got it!” They replied.

They continued to discuss about how to develop the Firmament Palace and improve their disciples’ strength before the end of the meeting.

The puppets had their plans about improving their disciples’ strength. The Firmament Palace was rich with places for training and cultivating. Their disciples’ potential would be aroused to the maximum limit.

Su Mo had nothing to worry about. He left everything to the puppets’ care.

He left the Firmament Palace and returned to his residence to begin cultivating in seclusion.

Su Mo didn’t rush to check the martial arts techniques and treasures inside the jade bracelet. Instead, he started cultivating directly.

For him, to increase his cultivation was the key for the moment. He would have time to go through these martial arts techniques and treasures.

With his legs crossed and eyes closed, Su Mo cleared his mind and refined his dark force, falling into a long seclusion.

Time went by fast. Day after day during Su Mo’s training in seclusion, the Firmament Palace regained its popularity with tens of thousands of new disciples, bustling with vigor and prosperity.

Every disciple was allowed to pick one Royal cultivation skill and martial arts technique from the Martial Hall of the palace he belonged to. And they were granted a large amount of Spiritual Stones and Spiritual Herbs per month. Everyone got a powerful weapon as well.

With plenty of resources and special places available for strength improving, these disciples began to train madly. Every day, some of them broke through their cultivation and some others revealed their amazing potential.

The strength of the disciples of the Firmament Palace improved by leaps and bounds beyond one could imagine.

Time flew by and three months had passed.
