Warrior’s Promise

The tall immortal Ultimacy mountain towered silently in the void, and martial artists were constantly passing it.

Everyone that passed saw the young man sitting on the mountain and looked at him with a hint of reverence.

No one dared to fight for the mountain because news of Su Mo’s past battles had already spread throughout the Fighting Spirits’ Plane.

Su Mo’s exceptional combat strength startled all of them.

On the mountain, Su Mo closed his eyes, immersing his consciousness fully in the immortality Ultimacy.

“Immortality means never fading… The way of the sky lives on forever… The way of immortality will progress into eternity!” A faint voice echoed in Su Mo’s head.

It was like the amazing immortality Ultimacy opened up a new world to him, and he was in deep.

Immortality was the Way of Heaven and Earth, and it was connected closely with martial artists’ Mind.

Su Mo felt that if he could fully comprehend this Ultimacy, everything about him, inlcuding his mind, would live on forever.

Day after day, Su Mo was still like a statue, making deeper advances in his learning.

If someone was next to him watching closely, they would notice slight changes.

Su Mo’s breathing was slow and constant, but the murky Qi he exhaled was like a transparent solid that floated in the air and never disappated.

This happened entirely subconsciously. His murky Qi seemed to be influenced by some mysterious power that made it linger forever.

“An enternal mind… an eternal soul… an eternal body… everything is eternal!” Su Mo murmured.

At times, he frowned and then relaxed his face, completely absorbed in comprehending.

He did not even notice when someone came up behind him.

Luckily, it was a friend, Wenren Tiandu.

Wenren Tiandu stood closely behind Su Mo, but he did not disturb him and only waited silently.

Wenren Tiandu had also formed a Fighting Soul seed, because he had very fast comprehension to begin with, which was sped up by being in Fighting Spirits’ Plane.

Although he had not formed a Fighting Soul seed as quickly as Sikong Yan, he was still quite fast.

Or course, Wenren Tiandu knew that his Fighting Soul seed might not turn into a Fighting Soul, and it would at most increase his chances a little.

Another two weeks or so passed, and Su Mo still had not woken up.

On this day, Xi’er also came to the mountain and began waiting with Wenren Tiandu.

News of Su Mo’s location had spread throughout Fighting Spirits’ Plane, so Xi’er was able to find him easily.

“Xi’er, what kind of Ultimacy is Su Mo cultivating?” Wenren Tiandu chatted with her.

“This is the immortality Ultimacy, one of the strongest in Fighting Spirits’ Plane. It’s rumored that the Immortal Emperor used it in ancient times!” Xi’er said with a smile. She was genuinely happy for Su Mo that he could comprehend it.

However, while the immortality Ultimacy was powerful, few people in history had been able to form a Fighting Soul seed from it.

“Immortality Ultimacy!” Wenren Tiandu nodded and exclaimed, “It’s probably very difficult for Su Mo to form a Fighting Soul seed!”

Ultimacies were branches of the Way of Heaven and Earth. Ones like Five Elements Ultimacies, wind Ultimacies, and ice Ultimacies were all quite common and made them easy to comprehend.

For example, Wenren Tiandu comprehended the light Ultimacy by observing all the light in the world.

However, special Ultimacies like the immortality Ultimacy were invisible and amorphous, making them difficult to understand.

“Don’t worry! Brother Su Mo is very perceptive, and nothing can stump him!” Xi’er said with a confident smile.

As time trickled by, Xi’er and Wenren Tiandu waited for another ten days, and Fighting Spirits’ Plane was about to close.

“Oh no, we’re running out of time!” Wenren Tiandu said anxiously. As soon as the plane closed, everyone inside would be forced out.

“He’s almost done!” Xi’er’s face was wraught with nervousness.

She could feel the immortality Ultimacy on the mountain thinning, which meant that Su Mo’s comprehending was coming to a close.

As martial artists comprehended an Ultimacy, its power on a mountain would lessen.

When all the Ultimacy on a mountain disappeared, it was time to form the Fighting Soul seed.

Amidst Xi’er’s and Wenren Tiandu’s anxious waiting, another day trickled by.

Finally, an illusion floated up from Su Mo’s body, and the giant Devouring Martial Soul appeared.

The giant black vortex covered the earth, and its three golden halos were incredibly striking.

“What kind of Martial Soul is this?” Wenren Tiandu stared at Su Mo’s Martial Soul with wide eyes. He had never seen anything like it before.

The intense devouring aura was especially made his heart tremble.

“This is the Devouring Martial Soul, an incredible Martial Soul!”

Xi’er’s eyes lit up. She was the first to find out Su Mo had a Devouring Martial Soul.

She felt elated to see the three halos it had.

When she was in Sunnywood City, Su Mo’s Devouring Martial Soul was only a Human Class Martial Soul, and now it had reached Rank 3 Heaven Class.

In five years’ time, the Martial Soul followed in the tracks of Su Mo’s cultivation, increasing by dozens of levels.

Under Xi’er’s and Wenren Tiandu’s watch, the Devouring Martial Soul suddenly gave off hazy golden glow.

This golden haze was completely different from the halos, as it was very faint and had an aged and immortal aura.

Then, the golden light slowly concentrated toward the middle.

Soon, the light became a small golden vortex, similar to the Devouring Martial Soul.

With a flash, the golden vortex burrowed into the Martial Soul and disappeared.

“He succeeded!” Xi’er and Wenren Tiandu were all smiles. This scene meant Su Mo had formed a Fighting Soul seed.

After a while, the cross-legged Su Mo slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, Su Mo was not happy, but confused.

He still felt like he knew very little about this Ultimacy and the Fighting Soul seed.

When his comprehension reached a certain point, he felt Ultimacy’s power form some kind of bond with his Martial Soul.

His cultivating path had always been very circular, and he understood the principles of cultivating very clearly.

However, he had absolutely no clue about the formation of Fighting Soul seeds or the relationship between Ultimacies and Martial Souls.

Somehow, amidst all this confusion, he managed to form an immortality Fighting Soul seed.
