Warrior’s Promise - Chapter 723

Chapter 723

Su Mo hurtled out of the underground world .

After he left the cave, he saw that countless of demonic beasts had gathered at the foot of this gigantic mountain .

Many demonic beasts crowded all over a radius of tens of thousands of miles around the gigantic mountain .

There were all kinds of fantastic demonic beasts present, including many low-level demonic beasts at Level 3 or 4 and quite a few stronger Level 6 or 7 beasts .

They were lying on their stomachs, gazing at the gigantic mountain reverently .

The trumpet of the Ancient War Elephant echoed for miles and all who heard the trumpet knew that one of the three overlords of the Barbaric Mountains had been awakened .

Thus, these demonic beasts came to Sacred Mountain to pay their respects .

“Oh my god!”

Su Mo felt his hair stand on end at the majestic sight of so many demonic beasts gathering in one place . Their combined power would be enough to conquer the entire East Continent .

Swoosh!

Su Mo did not linger, instead, streaked like lightning in the direction of Central Continent .

Countless demonic beasts saw Su Mo leave, but none dared to stand in his way . They had all seen him depart from Sacred Mountain .

Sacred Mountain was where the three overlords of Barbaric Mountains resided . No one dared lay a hand on those who came out from that place .

Su Mo flew on his Spiritual Sword and urged it to move at maximum speed .

Crack!

Su Mo merged properties within his body together and unleashed his strongest move . He split space apart with his sword and quickly tunneled through space .

All the demonic beasts were on their pilgrimages . So, Su Mo’s passage out of the area was smooth-sailing . He continued to fly at maximum speed and only relaxed after flying for more than half a day .

“That was a close shave!”

Su Mo wiped the sweat from his forehead . If not for Lil Eight, he would not have survived even if he had ten lives .

“Lil Eight, I’ll come back for you when I’m stronger!” Su Mo sighed and continued his journey to Central Continent .

Su Mo did not forget to continuously refine his Dark Force and stabilize his cultivation, hoping to start devouring as soon as possible .

Time trickled by and Su Mo was still travelling .

Su Mo managed to avoid dangerous situations thanks to his Ghostly Magic Sight Martial Soul . After another 10 days of traveling, he finally approached the border of Barbaric Mountains . He was nearing Central Continent .

In a huge mountain valley within the outer edges of the Barbaric Mountains, a group of people were attempting to kill a large demonic beast .

This demonic beast was of Class 3 Lv 5 and resembled a wolf . It was about 33 meters long and had two sharp, piercing fangs that glinted with cold light, like two large knives .

Its body was also covered with a coat of sharp, black spines and looked extremely ferocious .

It was surrounded by a group of five martial artists, four men and a woman who were all in their twenties .

Boom!

Constant explosions rang out and the powerful air blasts swept across the area, which constantly shattered the surrounding mountains .

The five of them jointly attacked the demonic beast but their combined strength was on par with that beast .

“Sister Yunxi, this Sky-demon Wolf is too powerful . I’m afraid we would not be able to kill it!” said a tall young man in yellow as he continued to attack .

The person he called ‘Sister Yunxi’ was the only female in the group .

Her skin was fair and her features were delicate . She wore a black tight suit and her hair was tied into a high ponytail, which made her look bright and brave .

“Even if it takes forever, we have to wear it down till it dies!”

Zhao Yunxi yelled through her clenched jaw . She kept waving her long sword and rays of piercing sword Qi shot toward the Sky-demon Wolf .

They might be weaker than the Sky-demon Wolf in terms of cultivation, but as long as they combined forces, they should be able to kill this beast .

Snarl! Snarl! Snarl!

The Sky-demon Wolf growled ferociously as the continued attacks from the group forced it to keep retreating . Soon, blood flowed freely from its body .

“Come on, let’s kill it!”

Shouted Zhao Yunxi as her attacks got fiercer .

Swoosh!

The Sky-demon Wolf suddenly shot up to the air and broke free of their ambush .

“Don’t let it escape!” commanded Zhao Yunxi .

She and her four young allies chased the escaping beast .

All of a sudden, the Sky-demon Wolf turned around and was bursting with demonic Qi . Sharp bony spikes shot from its body like arrows toward the group .

These bony spikes travelled quickly . They made a shrill noise but too quick for the naked eye to percieve . The spikes neared the group in an instant .

“Oh no!” Zhao Yunxi and her comrades turned pale .

This was the Sky-demon Wolf’s most powerful move but it experienced a large dip in strength when these bony spikes were released .

Therefore, it wouldn’t usually deploy this attack unless absolutely necessary .

However, it deployed this move when it had a chance to escape which was completely unexpected .

The demon wolf caught its five assailants off guard .

They hastily tried to block the bony spikes with their most powerful techniques .

Boom!

“Ah! Ah!”

There was a string of explosions . Afterwards, two screams rang out .

Amongst the group, two young men of weaker cultivation had been instantly killed .

Zhao Yunxi and the other two young men had managed to block the spikes and sustained minor injuries from the bony spike attack .

Whoosh!

The Sky-demon Wolf flew back with lightning speed and charged at Zhao Yunxi .

It instinctively identified Zhao Yunxi as the strongest one of the group . It wouldn’t need to fear the rest once she’s dead .

“Oh no!”

Zhao Yunxi turned pale . She just blocked the bony spikes attack and sustained internal injuries as a result . She found herself between a rock and a hard place . There was no way she would have been able to block this attack .

“Sister Yunxi!” shouted the other two .

They also wore pale faces . Zhao Yunxi was the granddaughter of the master of the Zhaos . If she perished today at Barbaric Mountains, their master would be livid .

“I’m doomed!”

Zhao Yunxi felt dejected seeing the widely opened mouth of the ferocious wolf and smelling its foul breath .

Suddenly, a dazzling five-colored Sword Qi rained down upon the Sky-demon Wolf’s head at incredible speed .

Bang!

The Sky-demon Wolf’s head split into two with a loud explosion . Blood and brains splattered . The wolf had been killed .

Zhao Yunxi was stunned and immediately looked up . She spotted a young man in white flying past .

“He saved me!” muttered Zhao Yunxi .

She immediately accepted the young man in white as her savior .

“Young master, please wait!” shouted Zhao Yunxi .

Zhao Yunxi immediately shot to the sky in pursuit of a young man in white when she noticed he was moving too quickly and away from her .
