Su Mo had intended to draw on his Martial Soul Force to meet the trio’s attack, but after noticing the powerful surrounding winds, an idea suddenly struck him.

…

With his Wind sword will and his profound understanding of the characteristics of wind, could he leverage these abilities by harnessing these powerful winds?

He moved as soon as the idea crossed his mind, drawing his sword and releasing three consecutive strikes towards the trio’s attacks.

He gave his all in those three strikes by using three wisps of Nirvana Sword Qi.

SWIs.h.!.+

Those three streams of sword Qi were as undetectable as wind and headed straight for the saber radiance, fist radiance and palm print.

Just then, the sharp winds suddenly s.h.i.+fted and merged with the sword Qi.

In an instant, the streams of indiscernible sword Qi’s power multiplied manyfold.

PUFF! PUFF! PUFF!

There was no explosion or blast as the sword Qi collided with the trio’s attacks, instantly tearing them apart and slicing straight at the trio.

“What?”

“How could this happen?”

“How could he be so powerful?”

The trio’s faces were ashen. Never could they have dreamt that their attacks would be so easily crushed by Su Mo.

Nonetheless, they were no weaklings themselves and quickly reacted, barely evading Su Mo’s sword Qi.

Hu Yuanlong’s back was slashed by a powerful gust of wind as he evaded Su Mo’s sword Qi. At that moment, his Body-protection Genuine Vitality was ripped open, and a large gash appeared on his back, spurting blood everywhere.

Su Mo was elated. Harnessing the wind really worked in his favour.

In the next instant, Su Mo’s awareness melded with the wind, and his entire figure rushed forward just like a cool breeze.

Although Su Mo could not move freely, harnessing the wind had vastly reduced the pressure on him. The weaker winds rapidly changed direction upon coming within two feet of him.

“If you try to stand in my way again, you’ll die!” Su Mo declared coldly.

He rushed full speed ahead towards the front, pa.s.sing a few people in the process. There was no time to waste, because he had to overtake Yuwen Jun.

“d.a.m.n you!” Hu Yuanlong and his friends bellowed angrily, their faces pale.

They were all of Level 8 True Spirit Realm cultivation and all considered top experts, even amongst the talents across the hundred domains represented here.

Yet, they resented being forced into retreat by a Level 6 True Spirit Realm genius.

Hu Yuanlong felt it more acutely than the rest, especially since he had sustained considerable injuries.

SWOOs.h.!.+

After pulling ahead of several people, Su Mo quickly dashed forward.

Yuwen Jun was now only a few hundred feet away from the cave. He had to reach the cave before Yuwen Jun did to obtain the 10,000 year stalact.i.te.

With the power of the wind behind him and his body giving off golden rays of light, Su Mo was way faster than Yuwen Jun and quickly bridged the gap between them.

Just slightly ahead of him, Yuwen Jun stopped and slowly turned to face Su Mo, his eyes like piercing daggers, fierce enough to freeze people in their tracks.

…

“You may be good, but no one can take away what I’ve got my eye on!” Yuwen Jun declared coldly, “The moment you come within ten feet of me will be the moment of your death!”

Yuwen Jun’s voice was calm, as if one word from him was enough to decide Su Mo’s fate.

“Oh!”

His confidence caused Su Mo to raise his brows.

Yet, Su Mo would not be scared off by his opponent’s words. The winner and loser could easily be determined after a duel!

WHOOs.h.!.+

Su Mo did not slow down and soon came within ten feet of Yuwen Jun.

His body was tense, ready to make a move at any time.

…

“You’re bold!” Yuwen Jun barked with a laugh, his eyes giving out a cold, sharp glow.

SWIs.h.!.+

Yuwen Jun made his move and drew his sword from his sheath, sending a strike out.

This strike was simple and without any fancy tricks, but it possessed an incredible sword power. It had the ability to slice the skies open and a sword radiance that could pierce someone’s heart.

Su Mo’s heart dropped, as he sensed danger approaching.

This sword could not be blocked!

Su Mo’s face was ashen. How was this person so strong? He was many times stronger than Hu Yuanlong and the trio’s powers combined!

This person’s sword will was clearly at the second level and had at least reached the late stage of the second level.

This strike came towards Su Mo with incredible speed, making escape impossible.

“Destroy!” Su Mo shouted.

His combat strength surged to peak status, exploding with sword will, as his nine Spiritual Spirals went into overdrive. His whole body glowed, and figures of wild elephants trumpeted. He also activated his Martial Soul.

Not just that, but the outline of a sword rose up behind him. This was a Sword Martial Soul that he had devoured earlier, which he now activated.

SWIs.h.!.+

Su Mo also sent out his sword, harnessing the power of the wind, with the billowing winds embedding themselves into Su Mo’s attack.

This was Su Mo’s strongest attack, almost approaching his combat strength’s limit.

RUMBLE!

Two sword Qi collided with a loud explosion, forming a powerful sword Qi storm that turned surrounding winds within miles of the explosion into nothingness.

WHOOs.h.!.+

The sword Qi storm swept past, and Su Mo was knocked back many steps, his face pale.

“He blocked it?”

Shock flashed across Yuwen Jun’s face.

He had seen Su Mo battling Hu Yuanlong and the trio and therefore had witnessed Su Mo’s strength for himself. This was why he did not hold back in his earlier attack, with that strike carrying 90% of his true strength.

He had thought that one sword would be sufficient to kill Su Mo, but it never crossed his mind that Su Mo would be able to block it and come out unscathed.

“Which domain do you hail from?”

Yuwen Jun’s face was grave. He had met top-ranked talents from the List of Top 100 Talents from the four major domains, but he had never met Su Mo. The fact that this Level 6 True Spirit Realm opponent was able to face his sword left him astonished at his combat strength.

WHOOs.h.!.+

Su Mo chose not to answer, moving around Yuwen Jun to rush to the cave’s entrance.

Yuwen Jun’s face darkened as his eyes flashed with killing desire, and he attacked with his sword again, heading straight for Su Mo.

“Scram!” Su Mo shouted angrily.

His long sword slashed at the attack, and while he had once again blocked his opponent, it had also hampered his forward progress.

SWIs.h.!.+ SWIs.h.!.+ SWIs.h.!.+

Yuwen Jun did not stop his attacks, sending strike after strike at Su Mo, each possessing incredible sword Qi.

He inched towards the 10,000 year Grotto while relentlessly sending attack after attack at Su Mo.

Yuwen Jun was not slow either. Other than a few extremely strong winds that posed a threat, the smaller winds that covered the sky could only hamper his progress, not harm him.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The explosions did not stop.

Su Mo was forced to defend against Yuwen Jun’s attacks, unable to take another step forward.

In the blink of an eye, Yuwen Jun was within 99 meters of the 10,000-year Grotto. Hu Yuanlong, Li Hai and the rest had also caught up by then.

“Sh*t… ”

Su Mo was furious. If it wasn’t for these people constantly attacking him, he would have already gotten his hands on the 10,000-year Stalact.i.te and not be stuck here fighting for his life.

A keen glint flickered across Su Mo’s eyes as he caught sight of the injured Hu Yuanlong.
