Chapter 2376: Tuoba Qingyun’s Primordial Spirit
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
After Su Mo left the city, he flew for another few days before he finally escaped Ultimate Sword Domain.
As he flew, he continuously changed his route abruptly and released Devouring Insects.
Things were smooth for a few days and Su Mo did not meet with any danger.
“They shouldn’t have chased me!”
As he flew, Su Mo muttered to himself. If a Supreme Being had chased him, he would have been caught by then.
Su Mo wore a blank face. He could not return to Ultimate Sword Domain anymore and he was worried internally.
He wasn’t worried about Ling Chang but more about how Zi Xiao would take care of him.
Ultimate Supreme Being Palace would have known by then that he had obtained the Ultimate Sword Arts and the Ultimate Holy Sword and Zi Xiao would not let him off.
Qian Xunyue was with Zi Xiao and Zi Xiao would definitely use her to his advantage.
This made Su Mo’s heart sink. He could not go against Zi Xiao right then and he could only return when he became stronger in the future.
Thankfully, Qian Xunyue was not Zi Xiao’s weapon to be used only against him, she was a tool against Ling Chang too and hence, Zi Xiao would not hurt her.
“Where should I go?”
As he flew, Su Mo fell silent. Should he return to Reincarnation Holy Court or go to find Long Teng and the others?
The risk if he returned to Reincarnation Holy Court was great and it would be safer to head to Sky Dragon Holy Court.
However, before that, Su Mo had a few people to take care of.
A few moments later, Su Mo found a forest and entered it.
Sitting cross-legged below a tree, Su Mo closed his eyes and allowed his consciousness to enter the Devouring Primordial Spirit.
Inside the devouring void was Yun Mu, Tuoba Liuming and Gu Jianshan’s Primordial Spirit.
The three had not died as Su Mo had not refined them.
Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu had recovered substantially and had constantly a.s.saulted and struggled in the devouring void. This made Su Mo uncomfortable and he decided to settle them quickly.
With a quick mental thought, the Devouring Primordial Spirit began to refine Gu Jianshan’s Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit, killing what was left of his life force.
Ah!
An ear-piercing scream came from Gu Jianshan’s Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit before it slowly faded away.
He only had his Primordial Spirit left and the greatly injured Primordial Spirit meant Gu Jianshan had no way of struggling.
“This…!
As Yun Mu and Tuoba Liuming took in the sights, they started to sweat buckets.
“Qin Yun, we don’t have anything against each other, let me go!” Yun Mu shouted. At that point, she was so terrified, she didn’t have her pride from before.
“Qin Yun, who are you and what Primordial Spirit is that?” Tuoba Liuming yelled angrily. He did not ask Su Mo to let him go because he knew that it was impossible.
“Yun Mu, we do not have any grudges or hatred between us but you wanted to take the Ultimate Sword Arts from me and that is your crime!” Su Mo coldly accused. He was still considering whether or not to kill Yun Mu.
“It was my fault for trying to take the Ultimate Sword Arts and I will compensate you for that!” Yun Mu admitted.
Su Mo fell silent, he could not let the lady off as he knew he would suffer in return.
He had enough enemies and he didn’t want to add more to the list.
Furthermore, Yun Mu had the Heaven’s Punishment Deity Eyes Primordial Spirit and the Sky Evolve Body, which were both ultimate treasures.
For his own life, and strength, he could only be vicious.
“Sorry, when you decided to steal the Ultimate Sword Arts, your destiny was decided!”
Su Mo’s cold voice rang through the s.p.a.ce and he immediately activated the Devouring Primordial Spirit to refine Yun Mu.
Inside the Devouring Void, the refining force of the Primordial Spirit was terrifying.
As long as one’s strength did not exceed Su Mo’s significantly, there was virtually nothing they could do.
“Qin Yun, you will regret killing me!”
With her body disintegrating under the refinement of the Devouring Primordial Spirit and her Origin Energy beginning to disperse, Yun Mu started to scream and yell in desperation.
Unfortunately, her screams fell on deaf ears as Su Mo paid no attention to her plea for mercy. In just ten breaths of time, Yun Mu vanished.
Her body was gone and her Primordial Spirit stolen. As her mental consciousness disappeared, her Blood Force rushed into Su Mo’s body.
Tuoba Liuming took all of this in with a horrified face.
However, he did not take action and tried as hard as he could to recover from his injuries. That was the only way he could hope to escape.
Su Mo temporarily left Tuoba Liuming alone. Origin Energy rushed in his body and circulated quickly as he refined Yun Mu.
Yun Mu’s vital essence harbored a strong Blood Force and Qi and Blood strength. However, it wasn’t the Five Elemental Energy and hence it was not very useful for Su Mo.
Similarly, Su Mo did not bother to check the abilities of the Sky Evolve Body once Yun Mu’s Blood Force merged with his.
After all, he had too many Blood Force and he didn’t care about the strengths and weaknesses of each of them.
Unless it was the top four Blood Forces on the Archean Special Bodies Board, other types of Blood Force couldn’t increase his overall strength significantly.
A short while after Su Mo had wiped Yun Mu clean, he allowed his consciousness to enter the Devouring Primordial Spirit again.
“Tuoba Liuming, what relations.h.i.+ps do you have with Tuoba Qingyun?” Su Mo’s voice rang through the Devouring Void.
He knew Tuoba Liuming was healing himself so he couldn’t be bothered with that. Besides, Tuoba Liuming would at least need a month of time to return to his prime strength.
Even if Tuoba Liuming recovered his strength, it would still be a futile attempt to escape the Devouring Primordial Spirit.
“Tuoba Qingyun is my second uncle.” Tuoba Liuming truthfully admitted. There was no reason to hide this fact as it was easily-found information.
He did not want to agitate Su Mo as he wanted to drag time out to recover his strength.
“Second uncle?” Su Mo came to a realization. As he had expected, they were related.
“I want to know everything about your second uncle, including about his Primordial Spirit and Blood Force, et cetera!” Su Mo demanded.
“Sure!”
Tuoba Liuming nodded in agreement. His voice deepened as he explained, “my second uncle is a middle Supreme Being and his Primordial Spirit is similar to your Devouring Void but its effects are different. It specializes in seals, whereby it seals other beings and everything else…!”
Tuoba Liuming explained much about his second uncle to Su Mo.
A few moments later, he was finished. “That’s about all there is!”
Su Mo fell silent upon hearing Tuoba Liuming’s words. Tuoba Qingyun seemed to have a Primordial Spirit that specialized in seals, but he did not have any other Blood Force or Primordial Spirits.
Su Mo didn’t believe him fully. If Tuoba Qingyun didn’t have any other Primordial Spirits or Blood Force, then his talents would be considered average.
“Are you sure that Tuoba Qingyun only has a single Primordial Spirit and no other Blood Force? If I find that you are lying, you will experience the worst suffering.” Su Mo threatened, not trusting Tuoba Qingyun or his words.
“All my words are the truth. No one knows whether or not my second uncle has other Primordial Spirits or Blood Force because no one has managed to push him to use his full strength!” Tuoba Liuming hastily explained.
Su Mo pondered deeply his words deeply. Even if Tuoba Qingyun had other Primordial Spirits and Blood Force, he would not reveal them so quickly.
After all, his enemy was Di Yihun and he had a motive for him to conceal his real strength.
All in all, Tuoba Qingyun had to have other things up his sleeve. Even if it wasn’t another Primordial Spirit, he would have a strong Blood Force.
“Where is Tuoba Qingyun now?” Su Mo asked again.
“In seclusion in Earth Palace. He hasn’t appeared for a few thousand years!” Tuoba Liuming answered.
“Seems like he is trying to break through to the Upper Rank as quickly as possible!” Su Mo mumbled. Di Yihun and Tuoba Qingyun were competing to become an Upper Supreme Being first.
The one who became an Upper Supreme Being first would almost surely emerge as the victor.
Deity Plane did not have any ultimate Supreme Beings. With their talents, anyone who became an Upper Supreme Being first would be unrivaled in Deity Plane. Even if that weren’t true, there were few who would be able to harm them.
In other words, if Di Yihun became an Upper Supreme Being first and had the aid of Heavenly Palace, Tuoba Qingyun would be finished.. And vice versa.
