Warrior’s Promise

On the desert near the crimson sea of sand, there appeared a woman in white with a flash of light.

A white gaze covered the woman’s face. She possessed a soft, beautiful figure like a fairy.

This woman was Qian Xunyue.

Qian Xuanyue was holding a navy blue garment belonging to a man.

Qian Xunyue was relying on this garment to track Su Mo.

She had a special way to identify Su Mo’s location based on the aura left on the garment.

She had traced Su Mo here based on the aura on the shirt.

“WHOOSH!”

With a flash, Qian Xunyue entered the sea of sand.

Soon, she arrived outside of the Sky-burn Mansion, flew past the lava river, entered the flame channel, and finally came to the outer mansion of Sky-burn Mansion.

Short after Qian Xunyue found the giant stone gate that led to the inner mansion.

“Swoosh!”

Qian Xunyue was extremely fast. With a flash that split the space, she arrived at the stone gate.

There was still a crowd in front of the stone gate. Many people who saw Qian Xunyue were attracted by her charm and checked her out secretly.

“Isn’t this…the Fairy of the Ninth Heaven?” Gong Lin was shocked when he first saw Qian Xunyue. As a genius from the East Continent who had been to the Talents’ Grand Gathering, he knew about Qian Xunyue.

“Have you seen Su Mo?” Qian Xunyue asked when she saw Gong Lin looking at her. Evidently, she had recognized him as well.

“Yes, he went to the inner mansion through here!” Gong Lin didn’t conceal any information but immediately nodded.

Qian Xunyue nodded upon hearing that. Then she carefully examined the stone door in front of her.

She could tell by a single glance that there was an extremely powerful formation on the stone door.

However, no matter what would happen later, she would not retreat as Su Mo was in there.

“WHOOSH!”

Without hesitation, Qian Xunyue stepped out and arrive at the center of the stone gate momentarily.

Gong Lin’s eyes were wide open and fixed on Qian Xunyue. He would like to know if Qian Xunyue, who was a Martial Royal Realm expert, could pass the stone door’s test.

One breath!

Two breaths!

Seven breaths!

Eight breaths!

Time passed by slowly. After eight breaths of time, Gong Lin saw that Qian Xunyue was trembling but still persisting.

15 breaths!

16 breaths!

Another eight breaths passed. After 16 full breaths, there was a hint of scarlet blood on the side of Qian Xunyue’s delicate lips.

But it was when Qian Xunyue shone with a white light and then disappeared.

“Wow!” Gong Lin was secretly surprised. He thought Qian Xunyue would not be able to defeat the simulacrum with a level higher cultivation, but she persisted and broke through in the end.

…

There was no one in the vast hall. There were only the Heaven, Earth, and Human gates located there.

The next moment, Qian Xunyue suddenly appeared in the hall with a flash.

Qian Xunyue opened her mouth and a stream of blood shot out.

She was hurt while she was in the previous stone door formation, but she had eventually made it.

After looking at the whole hall, Qian Xunyue walked up to the three gates.

“Heaven, Earth, and Human!” Qian Xunyue examined with her beautiful eyes and muttered to herself.

Shortly after, she took out Su Mo’s garment and formed several complex handprints over it with light streaming out of her slender white hands.

The handprint formed a ball of light which flew around the garment and then flashed into the Earth Gate and disappeared.

“The Earth Gate!” Qian Xunyun looked at the Earth Gate with a freezingly cold gaze.

“WHOOSH!”

In the next breath, Qian Xunyue rushed into the Earth Gate without hesitation.

…

The space which was just like hell had cold drafts and the piercing roars of ghosts.

Sword radiance kept flashing, and dense sword Qi formed an enormous sword Qi storm which spread out in all directions and killed countless malicious ghosts.

Su Mo had already tired of killing.He didn’t expect to see so many ghostly creatures who appeared in batches after a batch was killed. It was endless.

Su Mo was not stupid and he knew that he was probably in the illusive space created by the formation. However, he dared not take it lightly.

Because even if he was indeed in a formation space, death here would mean death in the real world.

“Die!” Su Mo rushed towards another thousand of malicious ghosts with a roar.

BAM, BAM, BAM!

Sword light flashed, and countless malicious ghosts were sliced into pieces and vanished.

Su Mo was slaying these malicious ghosts while flying forward. The ghosts had the same level of cultivation as him so they couldn’t beat him.

“Darn it. When will this end!” Su Mo looked pale as he had been killing for an hour and flew for an unknown number of miles.

There was literally nothing besides these ghosts. There was not even a single blade of grass.

This depressed him thoroughly. He had originally thought there were not many who had entered the space so he could have a better chance. It turned out this wasn’t the case at all!

However, Su Mo couldn’t think of any other way out at this point, so he had to keep killing.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

Su Mo kept launching strikes which killed batches and batches of malicious ghosts and moved forward.

Time slowly passed by. There was only endless killing left in this dim and hell-like space.

An unknown amount of time had passed and Su Mo was exhausted. The Dark Force in his eight Spiritual Spirals was running out.

“How could this be?”

Su Mo looked extremely pissed. He wasn’t worried about running out of Dark Force, as he had ways to supplement it.

He was worried about getting stuck here!

Because it was impossible to completely obliterate all the malicious ghosts. They would appear from the void endlessly.

Thanks to his incredible combat strength, he would not be like those ordinary martial artists. If they were to enter here and be attacked by so many malicious ghosts at the same level as them, they would have died a thousand times long ago.

A short while later, Su Mo took out several Dark-Force-recovering elixirs from the storage ring and swallowed them.

Su Mo flew at top speed while absorbing the efficacy. He stopped killing the malicious ghosts as they appeared endlessly. It would be a waste of effort.

Other than killing those that were in his way, he stopped attacking the other ghosts.

Su Mo sped forward at an extreme fast speed. His figure tore through the void like lightning in the dim Hell Plane.

Su Mo flew rapidly while killing the ghosts blocking him. He had already flown for nearly twenty whole hours but had yet to reach the end.

Su Mo stopped, his expression was extremely solemn.

If this had been a regular journey, he would have already flown thousands of miles in the twenty hours. How come he was still not at the end of this space!

There was only one explanation. There was no end in this space. He would not be able to fly out of this space even if he were to fly for the rest of his life.

“Will I be trapped here forever?” Su Mo’s heart sank to the bottom, and he was completely depressed.

Right at this moment, a large of malicious ghosts gathering up and surrounded him. Seeing this, Su Mo gritted his teeth helplessly and resumed killing.
