Warrior's Promise

Once he returned to his palace, Su Mo did not cultivate but instead entered the Bangle Space.

He wanted to take this opportunity to settle the Ancient Demon’s Heart and the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda.

Looking at the Ancient Demon’s Heart before him and the massive Demon Head Mountain, Su Mo fell silent. Then, his body jerked and he flew up to the sky above the Ancient Demon’s Heart. The Blood Heart Fruit Tree was before him.

Su Mo had to hand the Ancient Demon’s Heart over to Myriads World Mountain but he intended to keep the Blood Heart Fruit Tree for his own use.

The Blood Heart Fruit Tree was unordinary. Even if it was separated from the Ancient Demon’s Heart, it could be very useful. Giving it to the Firmament Palace would be good as well.

Su Mo slowly lowered himself onto the Ancient Demon’s Heart and he stood beside the roots of the Blood Heart Fruit Tree.

With that, he wrapped both his hands around the roots of the tree as he wanted to remove it forcefully from the heart.

However, these roots were rooted strongly into the Ancient Demon’s Heart and no matter how hard Su Mo pulled, he was unable to uproot the tree.

“How strong!” Su Mo frowned slightly. Then, he took out his Stone Sword and carefully dug the tree out.

Although the Ancient Demon’s Heart was a real heart, it didn’t behave like one at all. Instead, it was as hard as a large stone.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the Stone Sword hit against the Ancient Demon’s Heart, booming sounds echoed through the space as sparks flew.

“My god!” Su Mo’s face darkened. Was that a heart!? It was even sturdier than a Sacred Class Weapon!

Su Mo was at a loss for words. At his cultivation realm, he actually hadn’t managed to inflict any damage on the heart at all.

“Devour!” Taking a deep sigh, Su Mo activated the Devouring Fighting Soul. Since the Devouring Fighting Soul could cause the Blood Heart Fruit Tree to collapse, it might be able to devour it.

Once the devouring power had enveloped the Ancient Demon’s Heart and the Blood Heart Fruit Tree, the large Ancient Demon’s Heart suddenly started to shake slightly. The Blood Heart Fruit Tree also shook.

Then, a large amount of energy slowly seeped out from within the Ancient Demon’s Heart before rushing towards Su Mo.

This energy was large and streamed into Su Mo endlessly.

“What a strong energy!” Su Mo’s eyes widened in surprise and he immediately stopped the Devouring Fighting Soul. Now that his cultivation base wasn’t firm enough, he could not break through to the next realm. Devouring energy was a waste.

However, Su Mo had not given up on the energy that had already entered him and he immediately started to refine the energy.

This energy was a tiny portion of the Ancient Demon’s Heart. Yet, it was thin and as vast as the ocean.

Su Mo silently refined the energy. He was close to the peak of the Rank 2 Martial Honorable Realm and now that he had cultivated again, he immediately reached the peak of the rank.

A long while later, the energy was completely refined by Su Mo. However, his cultivation did not increase as he was already stuck at the bottleneck of the Rank 2 Martial Honorable Realm.

Unless he broke through to the next realm, he would not be able to increase his cultivation.

Eventually, the devoured energy was all wasted.

“The internal energy in this Ancient Demon’s Heart is terrifying!” Su Mo eyes brimmed brightly as he stared unblinkingly at the Ancient Demon’s Heart.

The energy that he devoured was equivalent to 10,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. Yet, Su Mo could still sense that the energy in the Ancient Demon’s Heart was far higher than what he had devoured. It was perhaps 1000 or 10,000 times higher.

Su Mo was highly regretful. If he could devour the energy of the Ancient Demon’s Heart once he had stabilised his cultivation base, he would be able to break through to the next realm.

What a pity! The Ancient Demon’s Heart had to be handed over to Myriads World Mountain.

Su Mo carefully observed the roots of the Blood Heart Fruit Tree was realised that the roots were rooted deeply into the Ancient Demon’s Heart. There was no way for Su Mo to take them out.

Alternatively, he could cut the tree down or not care about wasting the energy in the Ancient Demon’s Heart when he devoured the tree.

A long moment of silence later, Su Mo gave up on the idea of taking down the Blood Heart Fruit Tree. Once he had returned to the Firmament Palace, he would cut down the tree and hope that it would still be alive.

Furthermore, Su Mo needed to quickly stabilise his cultivation base. Hopefully, he would be able to break through to the Rank 3 Martial Honorable Realm before he reached Myriad World Mountain.

He shouldn’t waste the energy of the Ancient Demon’s Heart. Su Mo decided that he ought to devour tiny portion before he handed over the Ancient Demon’s Heart.

Since the treasure was in his hands, he would naturally take if for his own use.

After that, Su Mo went to the Demon Head Mountain. Taking a deep breath, he slowly made his way inside.

The inside of the mountain was like what it had been previously and nothing had changed. Ghost Qi permeated a thick layer in the air.

Su Mo strode into the cave with a careful mentality. He had to beware of any attack by the insects.

As he walked, he searched for the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda.

A long while later, he arrived back at the wide space with the Ancient Demon’s Brain. He had not met a single insect on his way there.

“It is here!”

Su Mo eyes widened with joy as he spotted the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda in the wide space.

The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda lay calmly on the floor, radiating seven-colored light in all directions.

Su Mo instantly jumped for joy. The pagoda was a Sacred Class weapon! Furthermore, it wasn’t just an average Sacred Class weapon, it could be a Middle Sacred weapon or even an Upper Sacred weapon.

If he obtained the pagoda, his fighting strength would increase two-fold.

However, Su Mo did not hurry to retrieve the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda. He carefully checked through his surroundings in the wide space.

Numerous insects were resting on the Ancient Demon’s Brain.

The insects appeared calm and peaceful as they lined the Ancient Demon’s Brain. It was as though they were asleep.

Su Mo carefully made his way toward the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda in case he disrupted the insects.

It would be the best case scenario for him to not have to attack the insects and obtain the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda.

Buzz buzz~~

As Su Mo walked in the wide space, some insects started to flutter their wings, as though they had discovered an infiltrator.

Yet, these insects did not fly off from the Ancient Demon’s Brain.

Furthermore, the insects who were awake were all black-colored insects. The dozen Purple Gold Insects were not disrupted.

Su Mo was not scared of the purple insects and he slowly threaded his way forward to reach the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda.

“What a treasure!” Lifting the pagoda, a cold sensation rushed through Su Mo’s hands. The pagoda was like jade and it was mesmerizing as it flashed with seven-colored light rays.

A thick Sacred Force seeped out from the pagoda. It wasn’t a domineering force but a crystal clear force.

Casually looking through the pagoda, Su Mo then stowed it in the storage ring before he ambled out of the wide space.

The insects did not make any move. It seemed that these insects were disrupted by others in the Ancient Demon’s Cemetery for them to suddenly attack wildly.

A peaceful and calm journey, Su Mo successfully walked out of the Demon Head Mountain.

“I hope its owner won’t find it!”

As he sat cross-legged in the Bangle Space, Su Mo retrieved the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda and carefully looked through it.
