Chapter 2553: Sincere Apology
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
It was a great challenge for Su Mo to become a Supreme Being within 100 years. It seemed to be a task that was unlikely to be accomplished.
Unless he could go to the level in Spatiotemporal City that would allow him to progress by a hundred-thousandfold. If not, it would be impossible for him to reach the Supreme Being Realm within 100 years.
If he could have a large number of Chaotic Chalcedony, he would be able to do so. However, there was no more Chaotic Chalcedony around.
In any case, Su Mo was not the least bit worried. Even if Di Yihun were to become an Advanced Supreme Being, he would not be invincible. Su Mo could create a powerful master to contend with him.
“I don’t agree!” Suddenly, someone shouted out and he caught everybody’s attention.
It was none other than Heng Chen.
Heng Chen’s face was reddened and his eyes were as wild as a beast’s. Apparently, he was in a rage.
Heng Chen was not the only one who was unhappy. Many disciples were against the idea of allocating 10 percent of the Purple Qi to Su Mo.
However, they dared not openly voice their objections as the Chaotic Lord and the elders had agreed to it.
“Heng Chen, why do you object to it?” Wei Tian Supreme Being asked, with his face darkened. He knew that many disciples were unhappy about it but he had not expected Heng Chen to voice his resentment openly.
“Elder, the Purple Qi concerns our foundation. Moreover, the Chaotic Chalcedony needs the Purple Qi in order to grow. If Su Mo devours 10 percent of the Purple Qi, when will the next Chaotic Chalcedony be produced?”
Heng Chen told Wei Tian Supreme Being and the disciples about the consequences. He continued and said, “Is it worth our efforts to let Su Mo have our resources?”
All the disciples secretly agreed with what Heng Chen had said. He had voiced their thoughts.
Is it worth doing that for Su Mo?
Judging from the current situation, there is no way for Su Mo to defeat Di Yihun!
It is true that Su Mo is mighty and his cultivation level has progressed at a tremendous pace.
However, Di Yihun has been a Middle-rank Supreme Being for many years and soon, he will become an Advanced Supreme Being!
Moreover, given Di Yihun’s combat strength, it is impossible for him to be killed. No Advanced Supreme Being has the ability to kill him.
It is not worthwhile for the Chaotic Holy Court to go all out to support Su Mo!
Some elders sighed secretly when they heard what Heng Chen had said for they shared the same thoughts.
However, the Chaotic Lord would not change his mind.
“Heng Chen, we are helping Su Mo as he possesses great potential!” Wei Tian Supreme Being said with a sigh. He continued and said, “Moreover, Su Mo is from the Chaotic Tribe and he cultivates G.o.d Emperor’s orthodox practice. He is from the same bloodline and related to us!”
Su Mo quietly watched the scene and did not say a word. He knew that Heng Chen would be unable to thwart the decision.
When Su Mo had first met the Chaotic Lord, he’d known that the Chaotic Holy Court would stand by him. If it were not so, he would not have been able to cultivate the Grand Chaos Five Element Skill.
“Elder Wei Tian, I know what you are saying. However, I am not convinced!” Heng Chen said obstinately. The reduction in the Purple Qi would affect the production of the Chaotic Chalcedony and according to the allocation, Heng Chen would be the next in line to get the Chaotic Chalcedony.
Due to Su Mo, he had no idea when he would be able to receive the Chaotic Chalcedony.
“Are you trying to break through to Rank 8?” Su Mo asked. He could feel that Heng Chen’s aura was ready to erupt and thus he reckoned that Heng Chen must be trying to break through to Rank 8 True G.o.d Realm.
Heng Chen objected to Su Mo strongly as Su Mo must have taken away his benefits and prevented him from advancing to the next cultivation level.
“Yes. What has it got to do with you?” Heng Chen replied curtly.
“Will you be appeased if I help you to break through to Rank 8?” Su Mo asked. Although he did not have a good impression of Heng Chen, he did not mind doing him a favor.
The minute Su Mo made that comment, everybody, including Heng Chen, was stunned.
“Are you in your right mind? Do you wish to help me to have a breakthrough?” Heng Chen sneered. Su Mo has thought too highly of himself! Does he have the ability to help him to have a breakthrough?
“This is no big deal!” Su Mo said flatly. He would not help Heng Chen merge a Primordial Spirit, but he would supply him with sufficient Energy.
Heng Chen had a strong foundation in his cultivation level. He should have been stuck in Rank 7 Advanced True G.o.d Realm for at least 50 years. As long as Su Mo could supply him with enough Energy, Heng Chen would be able to break through the shackles and advance to Rank 8.
“Oh?” Heng Chen was amazed when he heard Su Mo’s reply. However, when he recalled that Su Mo possessed devouring power, he felt that it might be possible for Su Mo to do so.
The rest of the people were stunned. However, when they saw the confidence that Su Mo had exuded, they felt that he was not boasting.
“Su Mo, do you have the confidence necessary to do it?” Wei Tian Supreme Being asked. He knew that Su Mo possessed devouring power.
“I have absolute confidence!” Su Mo replied. The rest of them could not devour and they could only gradually absorb the Energy during their cultivation. Thus, they had no idea about the power of the Energy when the devouring power had been activated.
The faces on the people changed when they heard Su Mo’s reply. Absolute confidence! That was too much of an exaggeration!
Judging from what Su Mo had said, he seemed able to help someone to have a breakthrough effortlessly.
“How about it?” Su Mo asked as he looked at Heng Chen. He would not have helped Heng Chen if he was not from the Chaotic Tribe.
“This… since you have absolute confidence, let’s give it a try!” Heng Chen replied awkwardly. He was feeling excited at the same time.
Since Su Mo had made that statement, it had to be true.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, he would need more than 10 years to break through to Rank 8 without the Chaotic Chalcedony.
“In this case, come with me!” Su Mo said. Having said that, he turned and walked out of Celestial Cave.
Heng Chen followed behind Su Mo closely and walked out of Celestial Cave. All of them looked at one another and followed suit. They were eager to find out if Su Mo would be able to help Heng Chen to have a breakthrough.
If it was true, Su Mo would be able to help them to have a breakthrough as well!
Even Wei Tian Supreme Being and the elders were curious and they followed behind.
Soon, Su Mo came to the gate of his palace, with the people following behind him.
“Please stay here!”
Su Mo stopped the people. He took Heng Chen into the palace and shut the gate.
The men from the Chaotic Tribe crowded outside the palace gate and waited anxiously.
“Take a seat!” Su Mo said indifferently as he and Heng Chen walked into the secret chamber.
“Su Mo… you… are you confident about doing it?” Heng Chen asked with a perplexed look. He wanted Su Mo’s affirmation.
Heng Chen was feeling excited and he looked like an inquisitive child. He seemed different from his usual haughty countenance at Celestial Cave.
“You will find out soon!”
Su Mo replied flatly. He waved his hand and a large number of Five Elements Dawn Stones appeared in the secret chamber, almost drowning the two of them because of the sheer quant.i.ty
The Dawn Stones were from Su Mo’s storage device. However, he did not mind using them as he believed that he could get more in Chaotic Ancient Mountain.
Buzz!
Su Mo released his Devouring Primordial Spirit and activated it. In an instant, all the Dawn Stones were devoured by the Devouring Primordial Spirit.
After the Dawn Stones had been devoured, they turned into Five Elements Energy and surged into Su Mo’s body.
Su Mo merged the Five Elements Energy into Chaotic Energy and went behind Heng Chen, who was seated on the floor. He then placed his palms on Heng Chen’s back.
Su Mo triggered his thoughts and vast Chaotic Energy surged into Heng Chen’s body through his palm.
“This…!”
Heng Chen’s body jerked and his eyes shone brightly. The Energy that Su Mo had infused into his body was vast and the amount was comparable to a year’s absorption.
Heng Chen was elated and he immediately refined the Energy to help him break through to Rank 8 True G.o.d Realm.
With such a large amount of Chaotic Energy in his body, it would be the best time for him to break through to Rank 8!
Soon, Su Mo withdrew his palms. He had transferred the Energy that he had devoured into Heng Chen’s body. Judging from Heng Chen’s condition, it should be sufficient for him to have a breakthrough.
Rumble!
In no more than 10 breaths, Heng Chen’s body rumbled. His aura was like an erupting volcano, ready to break through the shackles at any time.
“That’s fast!” Su Mo was surprised to see that Heng Chen was about to break through the shackles in no more than 10 breaths. He had never done it in such a short period of time.
However, Su Mo came to terms with it soon as he realized that he usually forced his way through the realms. He had depended on his devouring power to enhance his cultivation level and his foundation was not as firm as the rest of the people.
The rest of the people had built up their cultivation levels through the conventional way and they had a firm foundation.
That explained the quick breakthrough that Heng Chen was able to enjoy.
Indeed, in around 10 minutes, Heng Chen’s body trembled and his aura enhanced tremendously. He had successfully advanced to Rank 8 True G.o.d Realm.
“Su Mo, please accept my sincere apology!”
The minute Heng Chen advanced to Rank 8, he immediately stood up and bowed at Su Mo before he could stabilize his cultivation level. He behaved respectfully toward Su Mo, unlike how he’d been at Celestial Cave.
“It is not necessary for you to apologize to me. Let’s go!” Su Mo said as he waved his hand. Su Mo was happy as long as Heng Chen stopped setting himself against him.
“Alright!” Heng Chen nodded, looking elated.
