“Sword Crystal!”
Su Mo overheard the crowd’s words and he was puzzled. He didn’t know what was so special about the Sword Crystal.
Without thinking further, Su Mo took a step onto the first platform.
The moment he took his first step, the scene in front of him changed.
He appeared in an empty s.p.a.ce where a blurry figure stood in front of him carrying a long sword that dazzled brightly.
“Another test!” Su Mo exclaimed in realization. He had to defeat this figure to be able to continue upwards.
At that point, the figure in front of him seemed to be in a virtual world or a world made up of Mental Energy.
“Defeat!”
Su Mo shouted lightly as he pierced his sword forward for a sharp Radiance to tear through the sky, targeted at the blurry figure.
Shoos.h.!.+
The blurry figure flashed and drew his sword across the sky. Like a rainbow, Sword Qi drew and arch and flew forward to destroy Su Mo’s attack.
“So strong!”
Su Mo was shocked. However, he had not used any strength of his Primordial Spirit nor Blood Force and hence he was still calm.
With that, he prepared to use his Primordial Spirit. Yet, in the next instant, his face darkened.
That was because he realized that as he had activated the Origin Energy in his body, his Primordial Spirit, Blood Force were all disconnected and he couldn’t activate their strengths.
“What is going on?” Su Mo wondered in surprise. However, at second thought, he came to a realization.
This was a place to test one’s Sword Art and it seemed that he could only use his Sword Arts.
With that, Su Mo retrieved his long sword and attacked with the Devour the Heavens and the Earth attack.
Strong Sword Qi harboured a terrifying devouring strength as it absorbed the force of the empty s.p.a.ce and became exponentially stronger.
Regardless of the Devour the Heavens and the Earth or the Chaotic Rotating Sword, Su Mo did not need to use his Primordial Spirit strength.
That was because they were both moves formed by the Rules that Su Mo had mastered and they were not connected to the Primordial Spirit at all.
Bam bam bam!
The powerful Sword Qi caused the s.p.a.ce around it to rupture and it instantly reach the blurry figure.
Shoos.h.!.+
The blurry figure attacked with another sword.
“This is…!”
Su Mo’s eyes narrowed. That was because the blurry figure’s attack seemed to mirror his.
The strong Sword Qi had the same devouring power as it absorbed the strength of the empty s.p.a.ce and became stronger.
Boom!
A loud explosion sounded as the two Sword Qi struck against each other and Sword Qi dispersed in the air.
However, it was evident that Su Mo’s Sword Qi was stronger. After it destructed the opponent’s attack, it destroyed the blurry figure.
With that, everything returned to normal and Su Mo’s mental state returned to the platform.
“Just now… did he use an attack conjured up by the Devouring Rules?” Su Mo pondered to himself. The blurry figure had displayed an attack that was somewhat similar to his.
However, it had happened in the blink of an eye and Su Mo was not sure what had happened exactly.
At that point, Su Mo seemed to sense a connection between himself and the Sword Crystal since he had stepped onto the first platform.
An invisible strength rushed from the Sword Crystal and touched his Primordial Spirit.
This feeling was strange. Not only did it stimulate the Great Rotating Primordial Spirit, it heightened the Devouring Primordial Spirit and Unbeatable Power Primordial Spirit.
“What a mysterious Sword Crystal!” An excited expression crossed Su Mo’s eyes. With the nourishment of the Sword Crystal, the Great Rotating Primordial Spirit seemed to become even stronger.
Although this increase was minimal, a long time with the Sword Crystal would allow a breakthrough.
Su Mo grew excited and he became determined to get the Sword Crystal.
However, he lifted his head up and found Qianhuan Demon Lord at the fourth platform to his dismay.
As for the others, only a red-skirted lady was on the third platform. Everyone else was on the second platform.
With a deep sigh, Su Mo took a step towards the second platform.
The same scene appeared as Su Mo found himself in an empty s.p.a.ce. This time, two figures appeared in front of him, each carrying long swords.
However these two figures seemed to be stronger than the figures previously as they had stronger auras.
“Die!” Su Mo yelled angrily as he drew his sword horizontally through the sky. Ma.s.sive Devouring Power rushed towards the two figures.
The strong Sword Qi grew to a size of a hundred thousand feet as it flew through the sky. The powerful devouring energy that came along with it threatened the two figures.
Shoosh shoos.h.!.+
Without hesitation, the two figures attacked, mirroring Su Mo’s Devour the Heavens and the Earth attack.
Boom! Boom!
Two loud explosions shook the sky as the attacks clashed against each other and erupted.
“It is the same!”
Su Mo’s expression darkened. Since he had been prepared, he had observed the scene carefully and he frowned upon seeing that the figures counter attacked with the same move.
Could the two figures be copying his move?
Yet, Su Mo’s attack had used Chaotic Energy while the two figures had evidently used Sword Rules for their attack.
Shoosh shoos.h.!.+
Just as Su Mo pondered deeply, the two figures rushed towards him, one from his right and another from his left. They were prepared to kill him.
“Die!”
Su Mo did not hesitate to attack either as he unleashed a strong Devouring the Heavens and Earth attack, directly slas.h.i.+ng the two figures.
With that, Su Mo escaped from the illusion again.
“Faster!”
Staring at the Sword Crystal on top of the altar. Su Mo realized that as he advanced forward, his Primordial Spirit attained a greater nourishment from the Sword Crystal.
“I cant let anyone reach there before me!”
Su Mo stared at the crowd. Qianhuan Demon Lord was already on the fifth platform while the red skirt female was on the fourth. Everyone else had reached the third platform.
Su Mo did not think twice before he stepped on the third platform. The same scene appeared but there were three figures now.
“Destroy!”
Su Mo immediately attacked with the Chaotic Energy and Devouring Sword Arts. He did not hold back with his attack and with a single strike, he destroyed the three figures.
Thereafter, Su Mo stepped onto the fourth platform.
“What?”
“So fast?”
Many people were shocked at Su Mo’s speed of advancement. His pace was much faster than theirs.
Similarly, Su Mo dashed through the fourth platform.
As he was on top of the fourth platform, Su Mo felt a continuous stream of energy from the Sword Crystal rus.h.i.+ng into his body and nouris.h.i.+ng the Primordial Spirit.
“Hm?”
At that point, Qianhuan Demon Lord turned his head and glanced at Su Mo.
“Not bad!”
Qian Huan Demon Lord was slightly surprised. The Rank 2 True G.o.d was exceptional.
However, he did not take much notice of Su Mo and stepped onto the sixth platform.
The Sword Crystal was his and no one could take it from him or they would be seeking death!
On top of the fourth platform, Su Mo felt a strange force from the Sword Crystal. Then, he took another step onto the fifth platform.
“Don’t be stupid!”
Right at that point, the red skirt lady who was on the fourth platform shook her head at Su Mo.
This lady was not considered exceptionally pretty, although she had a clean and pleasant look.
“What do you mean?” Su Mo instantly turned his head in puzzlement at the lady.
“The faster you go, the faster you die!” The red skirt lady glanced at Qian Huan Demon Lord and warned.
It was already good to obtain the nourishment from the Sword Crystal, but he would be seeking death if he wanted the Sword Crystal.
“Thank you for your warning!” Su Mo smiled before he continued onto the fifth platform.
Qian Huan Demon Lord?
Su Mo didn’t care. Perhaps he would have been slightly afraid if it was Tuoba Liuming or the Rank 3 Han Sheng and Yun Mu.
However, Qian Huan Demon Lord was nothing.
With the Sword Arts he had learned, his strength had increased greatly. Despite Qian Huan Demon Lord being a high Rank 3 Favored One, Su Mo did not fear him.
“Too young and ignorant!”
The red skirt lady shook her head in silence. She could tell that Su Mo was young and exceptional but he did not know his place.
It was seeking the death of him to want to challenge Qian Huan Demon Lord for the Sword Crystal.
