Warrior's Promise

Outside the Firmament Palace stood incalculable martial artists. Su Mo stared at them and shortly afterwards flew to the White Jade Square in front of the main gate.

On the White Jade Square, there were hundreds of disciples of Firmament Palace.

Some of them were arranged here by puppets to watch what was going on at all times, while others came here voluntarily.

“Palace Master!” Upon seeing Su Mo, everybody gave a salute with their hands folded.

“Don’t be so polite!”

Su Mo waved his hand and asked, ” What has happened in the external world recently?”

“My Palace Master, a lot of followers from major forces inquired for you.” a young disciple replied. He was none other than Su Mo’s former Senior Brother—Wang Hui.

“Senior Brother Wang, which forces are they from?” asked Su Mo in a low voice.

“They are generally from Emperor Xuan Palace, Sky-sea Pavilion, Xuan Sect, flood dragons of East Sea, Icy Palace of North Sea, the Dugus, the Beitangs, the Yins, Yin-yang Palace and so on.”

Wang Hui rapped out dozens of forces without a break, including nine forces of the Humans, equally powerful forces of the Demons, and some secondary forces.

Su Mo nodded slightly upon hearing this. He knew most of the major forces from the Firmament World came and that their joint purpose was to size up the situation of the Firmament Palace.

It offered him an opportunity to find out their attitudes.

Su Mo immediately released his spiritual consciousness, assigning nine puppets the tasks by telepathy.

His fingers moved quickly to form various complicated seals and drove them into the Water Curtain Formation.

They were seals for turning on the Water Curtain Formation, which was imparted to him from puppets like Gold One.

The seals had hardly entered the formation when the water curtain fluctuated dramatically and slowly opened a channel.

Su Mo thereupon led some disciples, soaring up and walking out along the channel.

…

Outside the Water Curtain Formation stood millions of martial artists.

They gathered in a tumultuous uproar, sending clamor high into the air.

Most of the relatively strong martial artists within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles basically came, and there were also a large number of martial artists who came from afar.

“Why did the protective formation operate constantly for the birth of the Firmament Palace?”

“Obviously, Su Mo’s worried the Firmament Palace will be under attack.”

“That’s right. Su Mo doesn’t readily open the protective formation out of fear for the major forces present.”

“In that case, do you think Su Mo will hole up here for all his life?”

Large quantities of martial artists were abuzz with how the Firmament Palace would face the current situation.

The Emperor Xuan Palace had dispatched a dozen elders, including the 13th Elder. Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian led the experts of the Sky-sea Pavilion. The Flood-dragon tribe sent only Devour-sky Dragon King and Long Teng.

The numbers of experts in other major forces varied.

As soon as Jiang Fengran heard of the birth of the Firmament Palace, he came here with other Xuan Palace experts.

Zhan Luan was also here, following the experts of the Warlord Hall.

They waited for a long time, but the Firmament Palace was completely isolated by a formidable formation. They had not an earthly chance of seeing Su Mo.

Some people got impatient already, wanting to leave.

That was when the Water Curtain Formation fluctuated all of a sudden, and a channel appeared.

Su Mo, in a black robe, strode forward with more than 100 disciples of the Firmament Palace down the path.

“Su Mo’s out!”

“He’s finally out!”

Su Mo’s appearance aroused a round of exclamations.

“Lv 2 Martial Royal Realm!” A lot of experts sized up Su Mo inwardly. They were too dumbstruck to believe Su Mo’s cultivation had reached Lv 2 Martial Royal Realm.

No wonder Su Mo dared to revive the Firmament Palace. It seemed that his strength was fathomless.

Su Mo strode to the edge of the channel, glancing at countless martial artist and saying with a smile, “Welcome to my Firmament Palace! I will never deny myself to visitors, but I can’t entertain you all.”

After reflecting for a while, he continued, “How about each force sends two representatives to enter the Firmament Palace with me?”

Plenty of people were inwardly in favor of Su Mo. In fact, there were so many people that it was impossible for all to enter the Firmament Palace.

“Su Mo, congratulations!” Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian and Deputy Hall Chief Hu flew forward, saluting in full smile.

“Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian and Deputy Hall Chief Hu, welcome!”

Su Mo returned a salute and instructed the disciples behind him, “Guide these two honored guests to the Firmament Palace!”

“Yes, sir!” a disciple responded and then took them to the Firmament Palace.

“Su Mo!” the 13th Elder, together with another elder from the Emperor Xuan Palace, exclaimed, flying in front of Su Mo.

“Master, please!” Su Mo said in brief. He swung his arm and beckoned them get into the Firmament Palace.

Whereafter, representatives of every major force were invited into the Firmament Palace, two persons for each.

Apart from a certain number of super powers, Su Mo also invited some inferior martial artists.

Soon, nearly a hundred people had entered into the Firmament Palace.

As for many minor forces, they were all denied access to the palace.

Eventually, Su Mo scanned through the crowd and found Jiang Fengran quickly.

Experts of the Xuan Sect had already come into the Firmament Palace. Jiang Fengran, however, was a disciple of the Xuan Palace and evidently not eligible to enter.

“Brother Jiang, please!” Su Mo gazed out over Jiang Fengran and extended his invitation.

Jiang Fengran nodded his head and flew into the channel. Although he did not know Su Mo’s intention, he had faith in Su Mo, let alone there were so many experts entering the Firmament Palace.

“Zhan Luan, Mu Bingxue, brother Linghu and brother Beitang, please!”

Su Mo also extended invitations to these geniuses who were on the List of 10,000 Talents.

They did not refuse as they wanted to see the palace for themselves.

No sooner had Su Mo returned to the Firmament Palace than the channel on the water curtain was closed.

Su Mo sat on the Emperor’s Throne in the Firmament Palace. The strong Emperor’s aura encircled him, pervading every corner of the hall.

Behind him stood nine hefty puppets.

The nine puppets were equally surrounded by surging auras, showing the power of the Emperor-to-be.

They were equal to martial artists at a half step to the Martial Emperor Realm. Though they could not leave the Firmament Palace, they were absolutely invincible within this area.

Su Mo’s Emperor’s aura, accompanied by the power of nine puppets, was extremely strong.

Seated on both sides of the hall, each expert of the major forces had a pale complexion and was in a heavy cold sweat.

Nobody had expected such a situation when they first came to the Firmament Palace.
