Their combined attack broke through Su Mo’s layers of defense and struck his body.
Rumble!
The impact brought about incessant explosions and sent terrifying blast waves everywhere.
Su Mo was completely engulfed in the blast waves and could not be seen.
Having the same cold expression, the three of them stopped.
“He’s finally dead!” Li Hai said with a chilling smile.
“He’s an extraordinary talent for being so powerful at only Lv 6 True Spirit Realm. I wonder which domain he came from!” Fang Qingyun said flatly.
She had always fought against higher levelled opponents in the past. Spending so much effort to kill someone at a lower level was a first.
Yuwen Jun kept quiet and stared at the center of explosion gloomily. As the blast waves receded, a figure appeared.
Su Mo was still standing tall. Although he was bleeding and wounded, he was alive.
“What? How’s this possible?”
Li Hai gaped from disbelief. The previous wave of attacks they dealt with were capable of killing a peak Lv 9 martial artist instantly. Yet, Su Mo had managed to survive.
“This…” Fang Qingyun was in as much shock as Li Hai.
Meanwhile, Yuwen Jun was unfazed because he felt Su Mo’s trace of life and figured that he was still alive.
However, the fact that Su Mo was standing tall like a tough b*stard had him amazed as well.
“He’s on the verge of death! Kill him!”
Yuwen Jun did not hesitate to strike again. He knew that Su Mo was close to breaking through after consuming the 10,000-year Stalactite. Hence, he did not want to give Su Mo any chance of retaliation.
His fierce sword Qi struck toward Su Mo again.
At this moment, Su Mo was severely injured both externally and internally.
Although the five layers of defense had greatly reduced the power of their attacks, he still had to withstand an enormous amount of force.
However, his eyes were beaming. The miraculous healing effect of the stalactite was helping him recover.
At the mean time, the nine Spiritual Spirals in his elixir field shook violently after breaking through some sort of restriction.
Su Mo’s cultivation had finally advanced into Lv 7, and it continued to increase.
At this instance, Yuwen Jun’s attack was upon him again.
“Yuwen Jun, you’ve missed your chances!” Su Mo yelled coldly and brandished his sword, shattering Yuwen Jun’s attack with ease.
“What? He’s broken through!” Yuwen Jun was shocked and his face turned black. His greatest worry had just come true.
Li Hai and Fang Qingyun were disconcerted as well. If Su Mo was already so strong at Lv 6, his strength after reaching Lv 7 would be unimaginable!
“Die!”
Su Mo cried angrily and charged toward the three of them.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Three streams of overpowering sword Qi shot out toward them.
Meanwhile, Su Mo also released his Devouring Martial Soul and exerted its power.
The strength of its devouring power depended on its level and Su Mo’s cultivation. Now that Su Mo had broken through, its devouring power was obviously much stronger.
As the mighty devouring power was unleashed, the three of them felt their Genuine Vitality and Qi Blood going into a mess right when they were about to attack.
“Oh no!”
They were dazed by the weird ability of Su Mo’s Martial Soul. It was the first time they came across a Martial Soul that could affect their Genuine Vitality and Qi Blood.
However, as outstanding martial artists, they quickly suppressed their chaotic Genuine Vitality.
They then released their Martial Souls simultaneously.
Yuwen Jun’s Martial Soul was a long green sword at Rank 8 Earth Class!
Li Hai’s was a dense vegetation at Rank 7 Earth Class.
Fang Qingyun’s was a purple flute at Rank 7 Earth Class as well.
“Break!”
“Break!”
“Shatter!”
They then attacked and successfully destroyed Su Mo’s sword Qi.
Nonetheless, they were weakened by the devouring power, and were forced back by Su Mo’s attack.
Yuwen Ju was relatively better. He could still channel about 80% of his strength after diverting his attention to suppress his Genuine Vitality. Su Mo’s attack only forced him back by three steps.
But Li Hai and Fang Qingyun were weaker and only able to muster about 70% of their strength. Despite successfully blocking Su Mo’s attack, they were sent flying with their Qi blood in a turmoil.
“What’s his Martial Soul? How is it so terrifying?” Li Hai exclaimed loudly.
The two others were stunned as well. Su Mo’s Martial Soul could not only rank up and devour blood, but also affect his opponents’ Qi Blood and Genuine Vitality. It’s strength was out of this world.
“Infinite Supremacy!”
Su Mo struck again mercilessly. He exerted his Martial Soul and dealt a stronger attack, determined to kill the three of them.
Since they already knew the secrets about his Martial Soul, Su Mo would not let them off.
At this moment, Su Mo regretted not raising his Martial Soul to an equal level as his cultivation.
If it was at Rank 7 Earth Class, he would be able to kill them instantly.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
His attacks then tore through the air and went toward them with an imposing force.
Li Hai and Fang Qingyun hesitated. Su Mo’s strength after he had broken through was too much for them to handle.
Even they could hold their ground, it would be impossible to kill Su Mo. They were unable to kill Su Mo even when he was at Lv 6, much less at Lv 7.
Li Hai and Fang Qingyun glanced at each other and the thought of fleeing grew stronger. They immediately turned and flew toward the exit rapidly.
“Damn!”
Yuwen Jun was startled to see the two of them leaving and soon lost all hope.
There was no way he could kill Su Mo alone.
“Kid, we’ll settle this another day!”
Yuwen Jun then flew away hastily. He was unafraid of Su Mo, because he did not think Su Mo could beat him even after breaking through.
But it was equally difficult to beat Su Mo as well, so he decided to leave.
“Do you think it’ll be that easy to leave after injuring me?”
Su Mo chased after them right away. He was not going to let them off easily.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The four of them flew quickly in the grotto. Li Hai and Fang Qingyun were ahead, followed by Yuwen Jun, with Su Mo on their tails.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Su Mo would attack Yuwen Jun occasionally, but he dodged all of his attacks.
Soon, the four of them were out of the 10,000-year Grotto.
