Su Mo followed Long Xun out of the Stone Room and went to the entrance of the cave.
“Su Mo, I will make the necessary arrangements for you to stay at the tribe. You just need to focus on enhancing your cultivation level.” Long Xun said with a smile as he turned his head to look at Su Mo.
“Elder, can you tell me about the fight over the Dawn Stone Mine?” Su Mo asked. Although it was important for him to bring up his cultivation level, he had to be aware of the situation.
Long Xun nodded and explained, “The Dawn Stone Mine is important to everyone, and every 1,000 years, there will be a fight over it. The Great Saints from the various races and forces who are under 1,000 years old can participate in it. The forces of the Great Saints who come up in the top 10 positions will share the Dawn Stones.
The one who gets the top position will get 70 percent of the Dawn Stones. The second place will get 20 percent, the third place will get 10 percent. The rest of the seven positions will receive the lower-grade Dawn Stones.”
“I see!” Su Mo was enlightened. The top position obtained the most share. The second and third place had quite a good deal as well, but the reward for the remaining seven positions was not attractive.
There would be lower-grade Dawn Stones in a Mine, and the remaining seven positions would share those Dawn Stones among themselves.
“Will Li Qianjue and Wu Zuo take part in the fight?” Su Mo asked. A cold light flashed across his eyes and he was filled with killing intent.
If the two of them took part in the fight, he would kill them to take revenge for the humiliation that they had brought to him.
“Of course. All the Great Saints from the various races will participate in the fight!”
Long Xun nodded. He knew that Su Mo wanted to take revenge.
After pondering for a while, Long Xun said, “Su Mo, if you break through to the Empty God Realm, you will have no problem defeating Li Qianjue and Wu Zuo. However, you will have a problem getting to the top position.”
“Are there any powerful opponents?” Su Mo asked.
“Yes. Two years ago, two men from the Ancient God Tribe and Ancient Demon Tribe came to God’s Path. Ancient God Tu Ying has the support of Star Tribe, and Ancient Demon Tuo Si has Sky Demons Tribe and True Demon Tribe to back him up.”
Long Xun nodded his head as he spoke. It was rare to find an Ancient Demon and an Ancient God in the same era.
Back then, it was rare to find an Ancient God Tribe or an Ancient Demon Tribe around.
“What are their cultivation levels?” Su Mo asked.
“They should be at Rank 2 Empty God Realm!” Long Xun replied.
It is still manageable! Su Mo was glad when he heard it. A Rank 2 Empty God would not be too powerful.
Moreover, it was impossible for them to advance to Rank 3 Empty God Realm within three years.
“Come, let me show you to your quarters!”
Having said that, Long Xun signaled to Su Mo and he flew toward the tribe nearby.
When Su Mo saw it, he followed behind Long Xun.
Very quickly, the two of them entered the tribe and came to a small palace.
“Su Mo, this is an imperial palace with a secret chamber in it. No one is using it, so you can cultivate here!” Long Xun said.
“Thank you, elder!” Su Mo cupped his fist at Long Xun. Long Xun had been a great help to him.
“You are welcome!”
Long Xun smiled and shook his head. He then turned grim and said, “No matter what happens during this period, don’t come out of the secret chamber.”
“What do you mean, elder?” Su Mo was baffled.
“Sky Tyrant Clan will not let you off and they may join forces with Nether Tribe to put pressure on our tribe. However, don’t worry about that. With Saint Elder around, everything will be fine!” Long Xun said.
“Alright!”
Su Mo nodded.
Long Xun then waved his hand and flew off. He had to gather all the top powers in Dragon Tribe to tell them about Su Mo and Saint Elder’s decision.
Su Mo sighed and felt helpless. If one was not powerful enough, they would be oppressed by others.
Since he was in a safe environment, he had to bring up his cultivation level or he would be stuck.
Su Mo then opened the gate of the palace and walked in.
The palace was spacious and there was more than one secret chamber.
The secret chambers were protected by an array, and there was a vast amount of Spiritual Qi. Su Mo opened up the array and started to cultivate in one of the secret chambers.
His Sage Pill had not been restored and he had to restore it before he could enhance his cultivation level.
Fortunately, Su Mo had purchased enough Dawn Stones which could help him restore the Sage Pill.
After taking out the Five-Elements Dawn Stones, Su Mo started to absorb the Energy to refine his Chaotic Energy.
Time passed quickly.
As Su Mo worked on restoring the Sage Pill, the cracks on the Sage Pill became smaller.
This day, Su Mo heard shouts and quaking sounds from the ground, and he was puzzled. Is Sky Tyrant Clan here again?
However, he followed Long Xun’s instructions and did not go out to take a look.
He was unable to sense the outside world in the secret chamber. If he opened up the array of the secret chamber, his aura would leak out and the enemies would know his whereabouts.
Thus, he simply ignored the disturbances.
The situation did not last for long. 15 minutes later, there was peace outside.
Su Mo calmed himself down and continued to restore his Sage Pill.
One day… 10 days… one month.
One and a half months later, Su Mo had used up most of the Five-Elements Dawn Stones, and his Sage Pill had been fully restored.
Finally, it has been restored!
Su Mo opened his eyes and looked excited. Vast Chaotic Energy surged out from his Sage Pill and flowed into his meridians.
He was at his peak and the Sage Pill was stable.
I shall continue!
After a long while, Su Mo shut his eyes again to cultivate. This time around, he wanted to refine his Chaotic Energy. He wanted to build a firm foundation for his Sage Pill and breakthrough to the Empty God Realm.
Su Mo put away all disturbing thoughts and focused his mind on his cultivation. He did not waste any of his time.
However, after cultivating for one hour, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked gloomy.
Bing Yue from Dark Ice Tribe sent him a message through the Spiritual Imprint.
The top powers from Dark Ice Tribe had searched the eight mountains and they could not find any traces of Xi’er. That made Su Mo depressed.
Is Xi’er at the Ninth Mountain or Dark Ice Tribe did not manage to locate her?
Is Xi’er not at God’s Path?
Su Mo was deep in thought. It is unlikely for Xi’er to be at the Ninth Mountain. After all, not many people can go to the Ninth Mountain. Only the Empty Gods can do so.
It is impossible for Xi’er to reach the Empty God Realm at the moment.
There are two possibilities. The first possibility is that Xi’er is at one of the eight mountains but Dark Ice Tribe did not manage to find her. The second possibility is that she is still in the universe and not at God’s Path.
I will have to look for her myself! Su Mo sighed. After he had a breakthrough in his cultivation level, he would have to search for Xi’er to confirm if she was at God’s Path.
Su Mo then pushed away his thoughts and continued with his cultivation.
Time passed quickly.
For a high-ranked martial artist, time passed too quickly for him.
One month!
Two months!
Three months!
…
After a long period of time when Su Mo had stabilized his foundation, he woke up from his cultivation.
“Rank 1 Empty God is the Blood Spirit Rank. The source is blood. The blood and the spirit, and the blood and Qi merge together to form one body. The vital energy and blood come together…!” Su Mo muttered to himself and looked grim. He would have to give it his best shot to break through to the Empty God Realm.
However, he could not depend on devouring the Spiritual Crystals to break through to the Empty God Realm.
There was a unique cultivation method that had been passed down throughout the years and it had remained unchanged.
Fortunately, for all those years, Su Mo had learned about the stages that he had to go through in order to break through to the Empty God Realm.
Blood Spirit Rank was to merge one’s vital energy with the Sage Pill and his Spiritual Soul.
After he had done so, the vital energy would be vast and the power of the Sage Pill would surge. The Spiritual Soul would become powerful, and the overall strength would be greatly enhanced.
However, it was not easy to do so. Many geniuses were stuck at the King Sage Realm as they were unable to cross the hurdle.
One also had to depend on their talent to help themselves cultivate the Blood Spirit Rank.
The stronger the Blood Force, the more powerful the Sage Pill and the Spiritual Soul, which would make it easier for one to advance to the Blood Spirit Rank.
Su Mo was not worried that he would not be able to break through to the Empty God Realm. He was more worried about the time that he had to take to do so.
He did not have much time left.
