Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Su Mo stopped trying after he failed to send the message over. After flying for another day, he stopped in a city.

He was not in a hurry to go to Sky Dragon Court or return to Holy Sword Mountain. His intention was to look for a place to work on his cultivation.

He could no longer hide in the wilderness and it was better for him to hide among the people.

The name of the city was Ming Yue City and it was larger than Void City.

Su Mo stayed in a luxurious inn after he entered Ming Yue City.

The main rooms in the inn were suitable for the martial artists to work on their cultivation as there was a layer of aura alienation in the rooms.

Su Mo sat cross-legged on a Futon in his room and started to work on his cultivation.

He did not devour any Dawn Stones but he was comprehending the Devouring Ultimacy as the efficacy of the Enlightenment Divine Elixir was still going strong.

The Enlightenment Divine Elixir was a top-grade Cultivation Divine Pill that could last for 20 years.

When Su Mo was in Spatiotemporal City, he had devoured the Enlightenment Divine Elixir. Until then, he had been comprehending the Ultimacy for almost 10 years.

Thus, there were 10 more years before the Enlightenment Divine Elixir would lose its efficacy and Su Mo did not want to put it to waste.

Su Mo used his thoughts to sense the Devouring Primordial Spirit in his body and started to comprehend it.

Time passed quickly as Su Mo’s understanding of the Devouring Ultimacy continued to deepen and strengthen.

His Devouring Rules had reached the Rank 2 Completion Stage and it was difficult for him to reach Rank 3 even with the help of the Enlightenment Divine Elixir.

Two years passed quickly and Su Mo was at the crucial stage where he could advance to Rank 3 any moment.

“May Young Master come back in glory!”

“May Young Master come back in victory!”

This day, Su Mo heard the people shouting in the streets and the entire inn seemed to be shaking.

What has happened? Su Mo immediately opened his eyes and left the inn in a flash.

Many martial artists were standing on the two sides of the street outside the inn. They had formed two lines from the center of the city to the city gate.

The martial artists seemed to be receiving a prominent figure.

Su Mo was curious. As he looked around, he saw someone walking from the center of the city.

He was a burly youth in a royal robe.

The youth had a broad face with a determined look. He carried a black sword on his back and he traversed 300 meters in one step. He looked awe-inspiring.

“May Young Master come back triumphantly!”

“May Young Master make a name for himself in the cities!”

The martial artists on both sides of the street lifted their hands and shouted excitedly. However, many foreigners were as puzzled as Su Mo.

“Brother, may I know who that guy is? What are the people doing?”

Su Mo was curious and he asked a short youth who was standing beside him.

“Do you not know Young Master Gujian?” The short youth was astounded when he heard Su Mo’s question.

“Eh…I am not well informed. Can you enlighten me?” Su Mo replied. Is there a reason he should know that guy?

“He is Gujian Shan and he is a Favored One. Everyone calls him Young Master Gujian.

He is the pride of Ming Yue City as well as the Great Rotating Region!” The short youth said with admiration. He had a low cultivation level and thus he was full of respect for Gujian Shan.

“I see! He is a Favored One!” Su Mo nodded. No wonder there was such a great array.

However, Murong Leili and Gongsun Jia were the Favored Ones as well but they did not receive such a grand reception.

“What do you mean?”

When the short youth saw Su Mo’s expression, he was unhappy. Su Mo seemed to think that there was nothing amazing with the Favored Ones.

“I don’t mean anything. It’s just that I didn’t expect myself to meet one!” Su Mo said with a smile. As Gujian Shan walked in, Su Mo saw that he was a Rank 3 Advanced True God.

Gujian Shan’s cultivation level was one small realm higher than Gongsun Jia’s and Murong Leili’s.

Although Gujian Shan had withdrawn his aura, Su Mo could still feel the sharpness and overwhelming power of his aura.

“Young Master Gujian is a genius in the Way of the Sword. He not only possesses the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit that is ranked number 14 on the Archean Martial Soul Board, he also possesses the Innate Divine Source Body which is ranked number 15 on the Archean Special Body Board. He has greater talent than the ordinary Favored Ones!” The short youth said proudly as though he were the one who possessed the talent.

“The Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit?” Su Mo was amazed and at the same time, found it intriguing when he heard that Gujian Shan possessed the same Primordial Spirit as him.

“That’s right. Young Master Gujian is going to the Great Sword Sepulcher and he will definitely stand out from those swordsmen from Ultimate Sword Domain.” The short youth said.

“What is the Great Sword Sepulcher about?” Su Mo asked curiously. Back then when Gongsun Jia had mentioned the Great Sword Sepulcher, he had not paid any attention to it.

However, it seemed that the Great Sword Sepulcher was not an ordinary place.

“It is not only a sacred place for the swordsmen but also a place of death. Only the top geniuses can enter!”

The short youth looked grim and said, “The Great Sword Sepulcher seems to be the relic of Ultimate Sword Honorable and it is meant to toughen all the swordsmen. It seems related to his treasure.”

“Treasure? What treasure?” Su Mo was curious.

The short youth smiled and said, “This treasure is special. It has caused all the swordsmen to lose their cool but so far, no one has gotten their hands on it.”

“Why is that?” Su Mo asked again.

“It is because of Holy Sword Mountain!” The short youth replied.

“Holy Sword Mountain?” Su Mo was stunned when he heard it. Is he referring to the Holy Sword Mountain where the mountain gate of Ultimate Supreme Being Palace was located?

“Hehe! Holy Sword Mountain is formed by Ultimate Sword Honorable’s Holy Sword. It is a Sovereign Divine Weapon that can destroy the might of Deity Plane. Do you not consider it a treasure?” The short youth grinned. He talked openly about it as it was not a secret.

“Is it that powerful?” Su Mo was shocked. The short youth seemed to have blown it out of proportion by mentioning that it could destroy the might of Deity Plane.

“Yes, it is. I am not exaggerating. However, not everyone can use the Holy Sword even if he possesses it!”

The short youth shook his head. Although the Holy Sword was powerful, the one who used the sword was equally important.

According to the legend, when Ultimate Sword Honorable used the Holy Sword, he was formidable and he had the power to destroy the world.

However, when the ordinary True Gods had the Holy Sword, they were unable to display its power.

Su Mo was astonished. Is the Ultimate Holy Sword that powerful?

As the two of them were conversing, Gujian Shan had walked past the street and came to the city gate.

He stopped and turned around to look at the martial artists who were in the city.

Gujian Shan looked grim and his gaze was sharp. An overbearing aura shot up from his body.

“Gentlemen, all along, the Ultimate Sword Domain has been the Sword Art Region and their swordsmen are well-known. However, our Great Rotating Region was established by Saint Elder Wan Hua. He is also a Sword Art Sovereign. Saint Elder Wan Hua is as powerful as Ultimate Sword Honorable!”

Having said that, Gujian Shan paused for a while before he continued and said, “This time around, I will be representing Great Rotating Divine Hall and Great Rotating Region to challenge those swordsmen from Ultimate Supreme Being Palace and Ultimate Sword Domain. I will show them that our swordsmanship is as powerful as that of the Ultimate Supreme Being Palace.”

Gujian Shan’s words fell like thunder and they resounded in the entire Ming Yue City, touching everybody’s hearts.

“Young Master is invincible!”

“Young Master is invincible!”

“Young Master is invincible!”

All of a sudden, the voices of the martial artists filled the area.

Gujian Shan grew up in Ming Yue City and he was a legendary figure. This time around, he would definitely create another miracle.

Gujian Shan looked around and with much confidence, he flew up to the sky and left the city.

When Su Mo saw that Gujian Shan had left, he went back to his room.

Is the Great Sword Sepulcher that special? Su Mo sat cross-legged in his room in amazement.

If the Favored Ones from the other regions were heading to the Great Sword Sepulcher, it must be a special place.

Su Mo was contemplating whether to go and take a look but he was worried about his safety.

The Great Sword Sepulcher was at Ultimate Sword Domain and he had killed Xu Yan and his companions.

I’ll have to take the risk! After pondering for a while, Su Mo decided to go and take a look.

No one would have thought that he would return to Ultimate Sword Domain as it was too risky for him to do so.

Moreover, he intended to present the Silver Sword Primordial Spirit to Ling Chang.

He would act according to the circumstances for the trip. After he had given the Primordial Spirit to Ling Chang, he would head toward the Great Sword Sepulcher.

Su Mo stopped comprehending the Devouring Ultimacy and left Ming Yue City.. He was on his way to Ultimate Sword Domain.
