Warrior’s Promise - Chapter 99

Chapter 99


Su Mo finally entered the Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm after cultivating for a few hours and consuming three Motivating Energy Elixirs .

Huff!

A smile appeared on Su Mo's face . Considering how fast he was progressing, it wouldn't be a problem for him to advance to the Lv 5 or even Lv 6 within six months .

After taking a rest, he drew out another Motivating Energy Elixir and swallowed it . He then summoned his Martial Soul to absorb the Spiritual Qi .

The elixir was a Medium Lv 2 Elixir . It was an incredibly potent pill . He didn't dare to consume too many at once and only swallowed them one by one .

The effects of the elixir merged with the Spiritual Qi absorbed by his Martial Soul, forming an imaginary shadow of a baby elephant and gradually strengthened his physical body .

In the following month, he didn't accept any missions and chose to stay on the island to stabilize his cultivation .

Over the span of the month, he cultivated his Elephant's Strength Skill to strengthen his physical body at night . During the day, he practiced his body movements and swordsmanship .

He used up nearly all the Motivating Energy Elixirs he owned within that time, finally improving his physical body and pushing his Lv 4 of the Elephant's Strength Skill to its final peak . The skill was now close to the Completion Realm of Lv 4 .

Now, he only needed his physical force to defeat the most Peak Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artists .

In terms of his martial arts techniques, his Divine Wind Swordplay had also seen a tremendous progression and was moving toward the peak of the Great Completion .

Shadow Steps was what he practiced the most within the month . It was now about to achieve the Great Completion .

His single step forward would now be accompanied by many untraceable residual shadows . It was incredible how fast the shadows were .

Then there was his Nine Rapier Movements of Wind Devil . It was rather easy to practice that as it was a Medium Lv 2 Martial Skill . In that month, he had practiced all the nine techniques of the swordsmanship to the peak of the Great Completion .

Its power wasn't all that much weaker than his Divine Wind Swordplay .

Knock! Knock! Knock!

While he was cultivating in the divided room, he heard a series of knock on the door and Li Feng's voice .

"Su Mo, you in?"

"What's up, Li Feng?"

Su Mo asked with a smile, having opened the door to see Li Feng and Niu Xiaohu outside .

"Something big happened! Let's hurry and go to the mission palace!" Li Feng said hastily . 　

"Something big? What is it?" Su Mo asked in confusion .

"It's war! The Ironforest Country is waging war against us!" Niu Xiaohu said . 　

"War?"

Su Mo was shocked .

"That's right . The war began a few days ago . I heard the mission palace had announced the national war mission," Li Feng said, nodding . 　

"National war mission?"

Stunned, Su Mo said, "Let's go take a look at the mission palace!"

When they reached the outer gate of the mission place, they were shocked by the crowd outside . It was so packed that it was impossible to move around .

With at least 3,000 Outer Disciples at the mission palace, the atmosphere there was incredibly heated .



"I'll be joining the war in the southern frontier . Are you guys going?"

"Such a large-scale war is too dangerous!"

"No risk, no return . They're offering such great rewards . How can I miss it!"

Many were discussing among themselves, some looking rather excited .

Su Mo became incredibly intrigued after hearing the discussions, but the mission place was too packed and no one could enter .

Just then, he saw a disciple dressed in purple barely managing to squeeze out of the mission palace . He walked up to him and asked, "Junior Brother, what's the national war announcement about?"

The disciple dressed in purple was only of Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm cultivation . That was why he addressed him as Junior Brother .

"Su Mo!"

The disciple's eyes gleamed when he saw Su Mo . He seemed pleasantly surprised .

"Uh?"

Su Mo was stunned . Why did the disciple look so happy to see him?

"Eh?"

Noticing how familiar the disciple seemed, he finally recognized him after a moment's contemplation .

Zhou Xin!

It was the kid he saved in the Qingyuan Trial Test .



Su Mo remembered him to be a strong-willed person with a firm martial arts will . He was someone worthy of befriending .

"It's been a while, Zhou Xin!" Su Mo smiled .

"Senior Brother Su, we've only joined Gale Island for a short few months but your name has already been spread wide and far . You're amazing!"

Zhou Xin's expression appeared rather cautious .

"Those are just rumors, heh!"

Shaking his head, Su Mo said, "Zhou Xin, you've just left the mission palace . What's going on?"

"Senior Brother Su, the rewards for this national war mission are incredibly appealing . I'll tell you all about it . "

Zhou Xin nodded and continued, "Six days ago, the southern Ironforest Country dispatched 800,000 soldiers via eight routes and invaded our Skymoon Country . They're invincible and have captured 17 cities .

"The Skymoon royals have dispatched a million-strong army to the war zone and also asked the four sects for help at the same time . Thus, the Gale Island has announced the national war mission . Any Outer Disciple of the Spiritual Martial Realm can participate .

"The rewards are incredibly hefty . If you kill an enemy in the Qi Cultivation Realm, you can obtain five contribution points . If you kill an enemy at the Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm, you can get 10 points, and 20 if you kill one at the Lv 2 Spiritual Martial Realm . The rewards double with each level . Finally, you can claim your reward with the head of an Ironforest Country martial artist!"

Zhou Xin's explanation was very detailed as he relayed the national war mission to Su Mo .

"Such a generous reward?"

Su Mo's eyes gleamed . With his current strength, he could kill the martial artists at the Lv 3 or Lv 4 Spiritual Martial Realm with ease .

If killing a Lv 4 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artist would give him 80 contribution points, then killing 100 of them would give him 8,000 points .

What if he killed 1,000 of them?



At this thought, Su Mo couldn't hold back his excitement .

"Senior Brother Su, I'll be participating in this mission! Are you going? I'll go with you if you are . " Zhou Xin asked in anticipation . 　

"Of course! This is such a good opportunity!"

There was nothing to hold Su Mo back .

"Great! Then I'll be teaming with you . "

Zhou Xin was incredibly happy . It was extremely dangerous to participate in this kind of mission . With an expert like Su Mo, it would be so much safer .

"Are you going, Li Feng and Xiaohu?" Su Mo asked the two people beside him . 　　

Li Feng had long entered the Spiritual Martial Realm and Niu Xiaohu had also recently made it .

The reason why the latter could advance so quickly was thanks to the two Motivating Energy Elixirs that Su Mo gave him .

Though both Li Feng and Xiaohu were now martial artists of the Spiritual Martial Realm, the war zone was too dangerous . He still needed to ask for their opinion .

"Brother Su Mo, I'm coming with you!"

Niu Xiaohu said firmly without needing to think .

He had great confidence in Su Mo's strength . With Su Mo around, he felt very safe .

"I'm coming as well . I've been wanting to meet martial artists from other countries and see how strong they are!" Li Feng said, smiling . 　

"Okay, let's go back and pack . We'll meet at the pier in two hours!" Su Mo said, his voice loud and clear .
