Chapter 1051: Give Further Thought
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Dugu Bo wanted to feel out Su Mo’s actual level.
He didn’t put in all his strength in his last attack but he wouldn’t hold back this time.
If Su Mo’s strength was seriously close to his, the Dugus might have to reconsider their relations.h.i.+p with this young man.
Either solve the conflict and ease the tension or intensify the enmity and kill him at all costs.
Of course, if Su Mo wasn’t as powerful as he thought, he could probably finish him in the next bout.
“Bring it!”
Su Mo came to a stop, with no fear but an intense fighting will in his eyes.
He wanted to find out his combat strength level as well. He felt confident that he could already excel over those mighty fighters of Lv 9 Martial Royal Realm if he threw out all his trump cards.
However, it was just a feeling. He could tell the opponent was at least at Lv 8 Martial Royal Realm but not yet as strong as those of Lv 9 Martial Royal Realm.
Swis.h.!.+
Su Mo put away the Billion Demonic Sword and replaced it with a golden sword, the Emperor Sword.
As soon as the Emperor Sword was drawn out, its sword power fired out in all directions and filled all fields.
For a split second, the Emperor Sword was the most dazzling existence between heaven and earth.
“This is… An Imperial Medium Divine Weapon!”
Dugu Bo had a cold s.h.i.+ver upon seeing Su Mo’s Emperor Sword, staring after a gasp.
“How is it possible?”
How could Su Mo be in possession of an Imperial Medium Divine Weapon?
One of the nine greatest forces of the Humans in the Firmament World, the Dugu clan had only Imperial Lower Divine Weapons in their collection.
And Su Mo just so casually took out an Imperial Medium Divine Weapon. That was too exaggerated!
Dugu Bo was stunned.
On the other side, Dugu Sheng, Li Fei, and Dugu Tianw.a.n.g also opened their eyes wide, gazing at Su Mo’s Emperor Sword.
The mighty sword power of the Emperor Sword started a violent storm in their heart.
This sword’s auro was much greater than those Imperial Lower Divine Weapons in the Dugus’ possession.
“Imperial… Medium Divine Weapon!” Dugu Sheng muttered to himself as a taste of jealousy brewing inside him.
Why?
Why was Su Mo so gifted?
How could Su Mo be in possession of a powerful Imperial Medium Divine Weapon?
In the sky, Su Mo couldn’t wait much longer for the stupefied Dugu Bo to come around and make moves. He took the initiative.
“Take a strike from my sword!”
Su Mo activated all five pieces of the divine elixir inside his body. The strong dark force flew violently like a powerful river and the Emperor Sword’s brilliance brightened the world.
“Yin-Yang Turn!”
Its sword radiance flashed as the Emperor Sword was wielded. The sharp, overwhelming sword qi tore up the s.p.a.ce.
After this strike, Su Mo wasted no time, transforming his body into a beam of light and shooting into the distance.
The final hit he cast out reached towards Dugu Bo.
The ma.s.sive sword Qi of over ten thousand zhang long echoed powerfully between heaven and earth.
This strike sank heaven and earth and turned Yin and Yang. The sky was falling and the earth was collapsing. Nothing was left in the void but this dazzling sword Qi.
“What?” Faced by the strike, Dugu Bo suddenly came back to reality. His face changed color.
Hair stood up all over his body as the extreme danger approached.
“Swoos.h.!.+”
Dugu Bo retreated rapidly and in the meantime formed a long spike with his surging dark force in front of his body.
This spike was over 100 zhang long and about 7 zhang thick, completely formed by the dark force.
Then, Dugu Bo patted the bottom of the giant spike heavily with one palm.
Bam!
A dull sound came and the spike flew out like a fired arrow to confront Su Mo’s astonis.h.i.+ng sword Qi.
Phew!
The sound was thrilling as the giant spike pierced through the void and clashed into the sword Qi.
Boom!
The explosion was deafening, shaking the ground for thousands of miles.
The giant spike exploded, force and Qi firing in all directions.
Faced by the giant spike, Su Mo’s sword Qi started to collapse.
Apparently, the sword Qi was more powerful than the giant spike. It collapsed into pieced but carried on shooting forward towards Dugu Bo.
The scattered sword Qi formed a violent blast wave, which hit Dugu Bo in a flash.
Ah!
Dugu Bo cried out for pain. His Body-protection Dark Force couldn’t handle the pressure and broke immediately.
Pfft!
An arrow of blood erupted from his mouth as his body flew backwards for hundreds of li.
His clothes were torn into strips, his hair dishevelled and blood dripping down from corners of his mouth. He looked pathetic.
“So strong!”
Watching Su Mo vanis.h.i.+ng at the horizon, Dugu Bo appeared horrified. He was just defeated by Su Mo!
Su Mo was only at Lv 9 Martial King Realm!
Would he become invincible in a year or two?
On the other side, Dugu Sheng, Li Fei, and Dugu Tianw.a.n.g were completely petrified!
They couldn’t believe what they had just witnesses.
The the Fourth Elder cultivated to Lv 8 Martial Royal Realm was not a match for Su Mo. How was it even possible?
Was this a mad world?
Dugu Sheng felt terrible. Every time he met Su Mo, he was impressed and crushed.
His confidence as a genius shattered again and again all because of Su Mo.
Dugu Bo the Fourth Elder froze there at a loss alongside the silent trio of Dugu Sheng, Li Fei, and Dugu Tianw.a.n.g.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
Until they were brought back to reality by the blast of a dozen of experts’ arrival.
“Dugu Bo, who caused your injury? The Yins or the Beitangs?”
The head of the group asked as he landed in front of Dugu Bo.
He was none other than Dugu Yan, the Highest Elder of the Dugus.
Upon arrival, the other experts also gazed at the wounded Dugu Bo, demanding an answer.
The Dugus had been on very bad terms with the Yins and and Beitangs. Conflict broke out often between them, which led to Dugu Yan’s earlier question.
In their opinion, only the Yins and the Beitangs had the b.a.l.l.s to injure a Dugu elder in their territory.
“Neither of them.” Dugu Bo shook his head with a wry smile.
“Neither? Who is it then?” Dugu Yan was seriously puzzled. He couldn’t think of anyone with such bravery and strength from outside these two hostile clans.
“Highest Elder, it was Su Mo. Su Mo injured the Fourth Elder!” Dugu Sheng explained with a sense of helplessness as the trio got closer.
“What did you say? Su Mo?” The crowd was stunned, in disbelief.
Su Mo injured Dugu Bo?
“Is it possible?”
“Sheng’er, what happened?” Dugu Yan’s face darkened and voice heavy.
Dugu Sheng heaved a sigh before briefing them the incident.
All those expert fighters of the Dugu clan fell silent after Dugu Sheng’s stating.
Su Mo walked out of the Mist Mountains and his strength had overtaken Dugu Bo, a powerful martial artist of Lv 8 Martial Royal Realm after less than half a year.
At what speed was he improving?
After a long time, Dugu Yan glanced across the crowd before giving his command, “Return for an urgent meeting. We need some further thought on Su Mo and the Billion Demonic Sword.”
Su Mo had matured. Dugu Yan came to realize that taking back the Billion Demonic Sword would be very difficult.
Su Mo might become a sworn enemy of the Dugus.
Making an enemy of Su Mo would be like drawing fire against themselves.
Fortunately, there was no big conflict between Su Mo and the Dugus yet. The table could still be turned.
