“Su Mo, don’t think so much. Hurry and cultivate!” Once the Grand Elder had left, Long Teng sighed and persuaded Su Mo.
What would come would come. If Su Mo was lucky, the Thousand Selection Fight would not be his end.
“Mm!” Su Mo nodded his head expressionlessly though his heart was heavy. He was very worried.
In other words, he was scared!
He was not afraid of dying but he was scared of the demise of Firmament Palace.
Firmament Palace not only contained his father, son and lover, it also had a lot of his old friends.
If Di Yihun or Di Yihun’s men had the chance to head to the Lower Plane, it would be a blow for Su Mo.
Whew~
Taking a deep sigh, Su Mo re-entered the secret room. He could only wait.
Long Teng observed Su Mo’s heavy heart and couldn’t help sighing. He was similary worried.
Once Su Mo returned to the room, he retrieved a large number of Dawn Stones and prepared to break through the bottleneck of his realm.
He had originally wanted to break through half a year later when his cultivation was stable enough.
However, he was anxious then and he wanted to break through as soon as possible.
Buzz buzz~~
With the Devouring Primordial Spirit released, the large heap of Dawn Stones were sucked clean into the void.
Rolls of five Elemental Origin Energy rushed into Su Mo’s body and were instantly refined into Chaotic Energy by Su Mo.
A large wave of aura flooded the secret room.
Time flashed by quickly and days passed. After five days, the empty space in the secret room shook violently and all of a sudden, all the aura in the air was sucked in.
Lower Rank 4 Realm!
After a few days of hard work, Su Mo finally broke through and entered the Rank 4 Realm.
The reason why he had used five days was because his cultivation base was not stable enough and he had been stuck for a while.
This time, he had broken through by forcing through the bottleneck. Unfortunately, he had used more than ten times the number of Dawn Stones compared to the last time he had broken through.
“I finally entered the Rank 4 Realm!” Su Mo sighed to himself but there was no happiness in his voice. The Rank 4 Realm was nothing compared to Di Yihun and Tuoba Qingyun.
Furthermore breaking through forcefully to the Rank 4 Realm had caused his Chaotic Energy to thin out. Su Mo now needed more time to refine Chaotic Energy.
Su Mo did not leave the cultivation room but continued cultivating and refining Chaotic Energy and comprehending the Devouring Rules.
Times passed quickly and three months flashed by.
This day, Long Teng came to find Su Mo.
“Su Mo, the day for the Thousand Selection Fight has been decided. The Grand Elder just notified me!” Long Teng informed Su Mo as he stood right outside the cultivation room.
“Oh, when is it?” Su Mo asked.
“In five years!” Long Teng replied.
“Five years? What are the rules?” Su Mo anxiously asked. This was the most important part. Regardless of when the event was held, if he could not enter the fight, nothing else mattered .
“The rules are not clear!”
Long Teng’s expression was serious and his voice had some worry in it as he said, “The rules of Thousand Selection Fight have not been set but the qualifications needed to enter it have been discussed!”
“What is it?” Su Mo asked.
“Rank 5 to 9 True Gods who are Favored Ones are qualified to enter. However, there cannot be more than ten people participating from each of the superpowers.” Long Teng’s expression was serious. This was the outcome from the discussion of the other superpowers and he had no influence over it.
Even the Dragon Emperor could not guarantee anything.
“Rank 5 to 9?” Su Mo immediately frowned at Long Teng’s reply. With such rules, he and Long Teng would be considered weak if they entered.
Su Mo had just broken through to the Lower Rank 4 Realm while Long Teng, whose blood had transformed due to the Archosaur Blood, had advanced to the Middle Rank 4 Realm.
“These rules place us at the back of the race.” Long Teng sighed.
“Will the Dragon Emperor agree to this?” Su Mo’s expression was as dark as the night sky. If that was the case, it would be unfavourable for the tribe. After all, he and Long Teng’s talents were considered top in Deity Plane. Placing them at the end of the race was an obvious target of the Dragon Tribe.
“The Dragon Emperor did not agree initially but there was nothing he could do. The other superpowers agreed to it!”
Long Teng’s voice deepened and he was hesitant as he explained, “However, Dragon Emperor had tried as much as he could to turn things around for us. The initial decision was only that Rank 6 to 9 True Gods could participate. The Dragon Emperor pulled that down to Rank 5. As long as I can break through to the Rank 5 Realm in five years, I can participate in the Thousand Selection Fight.”
“That is a chance indeed!” Su Mo nodded his head. It was an opportunity Dragon Emperor had gotten for the tribe and also a chance given by other superpowers to Dragon Tribe.
However, even if Long Teng participated, Su Mo could not rest assured.
“Do you think you can break through to the Rank 5 Realm in five years?” Su Mo asked
“I can only say that there is a chance.” Long Teng sighed aloud. Although his talents were extraordinary and he had an endless pool of resources, it would be hard for anyone to break through with such a cultivation rank.
“I need to participate in this as well!” A determined look crossed Su Mo’s face. Rank 5 True God? Su Mo thought he had a chance of achieving that in five years.
“Su Mo, don’t push yourself too much. Even if you don’t participate in it, I wil make sure to obtain the chance to use the Holy Teleporting Array.” Long Teng placed his hand on his chest and reassured him. He knew that Su Mo was worried as this matter concerned the lives of everyone in Firmament Palace.
However, Su Mo had a lower cultivation rank than him and it would be hard for him to reach the Rank 5 Realm within five years.
“I have to participate in it.” Su Mo muttered with determination.
“Alright, I will get some valuable resources for you to help you.” Long Teng sighed helplessly.
“Mm!” Su Mo nodded. With enough resources, he would have a greater chance of succeeding.
However, he could no longer remain in Dragon Tribe. He had to leave Dragon Capital and head to Spatiotemporal City.
“Su Mo, don’t worry. The rules of the Thousand Selection Fight will be fair. One’s cultivation rank will not give too much of either an advantage or disadvantage. High talents will also not give you too much of a benefit!” Long Teng tried to console Su Mo.
“If there aren’t too many advantages or disadvantages for the cultivation rank and talents, then some will still have an advantage right?” Su Mo thought. As he asked Long Teng questions, he began formulating his plan.
“Of course. There are a few people who have a large advantage in this Thousand Selection Fight!” Long Teng nodded.
“Which few? There aren’t any Heavenly Palace men right?” Su Mo asked hurriedly. This was the thing he was most worried about.
“There aren’t any from Heavenly Palace!”
Long Teng shook his head and said, “Among the Favored Ones of the Deity Plane. There are Favored Ones who are the strongest in each of the nine regions. They are called the Nine Young Masters and these men are incredibly strong and talented.”
“Nine Young Masters!” Su Mo muttered to himself. These men’s talents would be considered minimal compared to Long Teng’s and his own.
“While there are some others whose talents are not comparable to the Nine Young Masters, they are Rank 9 True Gods and we cannot underestimate them,” Long Teng continued.
“If we don’t know the exact rules, we can only wait and see!” Su Mo sighed. If he didn’t participate in the event, understanding his competitors would be useless.
“Among the Nine Young Masters, one person will be considered good for you.” Long Teng changed the topic and smiled slightly.
“Who?” Su Mo asked curiously.
“Ye Lingtian, Ye Young Master. This man is a disciple of Human Palace. He is a Rank 9 True God who is about to become a Supreme Being. Back when he battled Tian Chenyu before Tian Chenyu became a Supreme Being, he lost slightly,” Long Teng explained.
“Oh?” Su Mo’s eyes brightened and he immediately recalled.
Back when he was in the King Sage Hall of Infinite Region, he had heard of Ye Lingtian. Ye Lingtian was now a disciple of Human Palace and Su Mo recalled hearing of Ye Lingtian when Su Mo was at Human Palace.
“However, there is something bad as well.”
At that point, Long Teng’s face hardened and he said, “Recently, Heavenly Palace has been unstable. Di Yihun and Tian Junhe went to many other regions. We are not sure what they are doing but we think that they are trying to convince other regions to turn against you and Tuoba Qingyun.”
“I am not worried about that. Earth Palace will not sit and do nothing while Di Yihun pulls the superpowers to his side!” Su Mo shook his head. Tuoba Qingyun was an important piece in the puzzle.
This man kept Di Yihun in check and was helping Su Mo in a way.
“I hope so!” Long Teng sighed.
“Long Teng, I need to leave Dragon Capital but I will be back right before the Thousand Selection Fight!” Su Mo stared at Long Teng and revealed.
“Su Mo, this is too dangerous!” Long Teng’s face fell. By that point, everyone was aware that Dragon Capital would be closely monitored by Heavenly Palace and Earth Palace.
“I have to leave. Otherwise, I might not even be able to reach the Upper Rank 4 Realm within five years,” Su Mo sighed. He had to take his chance. The Firmament Palace was too important for him.
The replacement of the Holy Teleportation Array in Deity Plane had to be obtained by Dragon Tribe and he could not let it go.
“This…..!” Long Teng frowned. He did not want Su Mo to take the risk. However, he knew that Su Mo was determined about what he wanted to do.
“Rest assure. Nothing will happen!” Su Mo patted Long Teng’s shoulders. Heavenly Palace and Earth Palace would not dare to monitor Dragon Capital so outrightly and it would be easy for Su Mo to blend in with the crowd and leave.
“Alright, I will help you make arrangements!” Long Teng observed Su Mo’s attitude and nodded his head in agreement a few moments later. As long as arrangements were sufficiently made, the risk would not be too great.
“Mm, go and return quickly!” Su Mo nodded.
A few moments later, Long Teng left the room. He was going to prepare resources for Su Mo and make arrangements for Su Mo’s departure.
