Chapter 665: Draw the Sword
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
The Billion Demonic Sword started to tremble again, releasing more dense black Demonic Qi.
Buuuzz!
The Demonic Qi turned into a Demonic-soul Army that charged toward Su Mo.
However, this time, the army was at True Spirit Realm instead of Spiritual Martial Realm.
"What the…"
Su Mo couldn't help but curse. Who could fight against an infinite True Spirit Realm Demonic-soul Army?
The faces of those watching went dark.
However, surprised as they were, they did not despair because there still stood a chance.
As long as their cultivations could increase, nothing was impossible.
There were already more than 20 people who had reached Lv 8 True Spirit Realm.
Depressed as Su Mo was, he looked at the Billion Demonic Sword which was now close at hand, gnashed his teeth and rushed forth.
There was no going back now, so even with a True Darkness Realm Demonic-soul Army in front of him, he would still charge forward.
"Die!"
He gave an earth-shaking battle cry and then clashed with the Demonic Souls.
"Die!"
He struck out a dazzling five-colored sword Qi, letting out a crackling noise. Countless Demonic Souls were instantly slashed into nothingness.
He exerted his Devouring Martial Soul to its maximum and then the devouring power covered hundreds of meters around him.
The Demonic Souls under Lv 6 True Spirit Realm instantly exploded.
Snarl!
Countless Demonic Souls reached out their jet-black claws toward Su Mo.
Overwhelming claw shadows rushed toward Su Mo.
The sword in Su Mo's hand had turned into multiple illusions. He swung out countless sword Qi at the claw shadows.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The massive air blast from the explosions blocked Su Mo's way.
Su Mo had reached Lv 8 True Spirit Realm now, and so few Lv 7 True Spirit Realm Demonic Souls were no threat to him. However, a small number of Lv 8 or 9 True Spirit Realm Demonic Souls would be too much.
Even though his strength would surge if he were to use his Five Elements Force, there were so many Lv 9 True Spirit Realm beasts!
They would be quite difficult for Su Mo to deal with at his strength.
"Die!"
He used the Phantom Avatars. Four avatars made moves simultaneously, and the sword radiance destroyed everything.
He also used the Spiritual Sword to make a way for him.
Like that, Su Mo moved slowly toward the Demonic Sword.
Countless Demonic Souls passed Su Mo and rushed to the other martial artists.
Yin Tianchou and more than 50 experts engaged the Demonic-soul Army.
These experts were originally peerless talents, while some of them were even Martial King Realm experts, hence they could also deal with the army easily.
Besides, the strength of Yin Qingyuan and several others were already close to Su Mo.
"We can't let that guy get the sword!" A black-robed youth from Cold-blood Hall called out while fighting.
"Agreed! We can't let him get there!"
"It's now a different time. We should join forces and hurry to the Demonic Sword."
"I agree!"
The crowd reached an agreement, quickly formed into a conical formation, and pressed forward.
Despite them having tried to kill each other previously, they now joined forces for a common interest.
Cai Yun said nothing and joined them.
Although Yin Tianchou had a good relationship with Su Mo, he did not wish for Su Mo to get the Demonic Sword.
More than 50 experts were unstoppable in strength. They tore apart the sea of Demonic-soul Army and moved forward quickly.
With everyone working together they advanced faster and faster, and quickly approached So Mo.
Ahead of them, Su Mo lost himself in the slaughter, his eyes turning red with bloodlust.
Time passed. After destroying numerous Demonic Souls, Su Mo had become extremely close to the Billion Demonic Sword.
The sword was hundreds of meters high and stuck in the ground as if it was the artifact which held the sky.
At this moment, Su Mo's Spiritual Spirals trembled again his cultivation had once again risen — he reached Lv 9 True Spirit Realm.
After an upgrade, his strength surged again, and his devouring power became much more powerful.
"The sword!"
Su Mo looked up at the towering Demonic Qi before him and then called back his Spiritual Sword.
Riding on the Spiritual Sword, Su Mo rushed to the hilt of the Billion Demonic Sword.
The Spiritual Sword traveled like a lightning, cutting through the Demonic-soul Army like water. It quickly approached the hilt.
Su Mo exerted his Devouring Martial Soul to its maximum. The Demonic Souls shook and then exploded.
Even the Lv 9 True Spirit Realm Demonic Souls could not halt him now.
Su Mo's body shone with golden light as if he and the Spiritual Sword combined into one. He flitted through the void, letting out harsh noises
He even directly took the attacks from several Demonic Souls.
In a blink of an eye, he reached above the Demonic Sword. There was no time for him to take a look at the huge sword, rather he directly reached out his hand to grab its hilt.
Buzz!
His hand turned into a 333-meter-wide Genuine Vitality Palm that crushed every Demonic Soul in it's path.
Just at the moment the palm was about to touch the hilt, harsh noises rose from beneath.
Dozens of rows of dazzling radiance came from beneath and attacked the Genuine Vitality Palm.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With a series of explosions, the huge palm was shattered.
"Damnit!" Su Mo grew livid when he saw the crowd. These dogs just can't let me go!
"These dogs just can't let me go!"
Swoosh!
He reached out his hand again, and there was the other Genuine Vitality Palm moving to the Demonic Sword.
Meanwhile, he made another three Phantom Avatars that charged toward the crowd, casting out rows of sword radiance.
"Begone!"
"Die!"
"Die!"
The crowd barked and attacked, crashing the avatars instantly.
The avatars successfully halted the crowd. Su Mo's Genuine Vitality Palm had clenched the hilt of the Billion Demonic Sword.
Su Mo immediately tried to pull up the Demonic Sword.
"Huh?"
Su Mo's eyebrows furrowed. He could not draw the Demonic Sword. It was as if it had rooted in the ground.
"What's going on?"
He was shocked. This sword was indeed huge, but how could it be that it wouldn't budge even with his strength?
He then released his Mind, trying to take move into the Divine Map. The sword, however, did not go anywhere.
Chapter 666: The Ghostly Magic Sight

"What the…"
Su Mo started to become anxious. "Why I can't take it out?"
Is it too heavy for me to pull it out? Am I too weak? What else could it be?
He was completely lost. Fortunately, after the first attempt of pulling out the Demonic Sword, it stopped trembling and no longer released Devilish Qi.
The Demonic-soul Army was now gone, which meant that he now had fewer enemies to deal with.
Su Mo was summoning Genuine Vitality throughout his body to make another attempt, when the others charged toward him.
Dozens of dazzling rows of radiance were moving to him. Various sword Qi, saber Qi, and fist radiance smashed into Su Mo's Genuine Vitality Palm, destroying it instantly.
Apart from these attacks, the darkly clad youth from Cold-blood Hall punched out at Su Mo's body.
"Die!"
The blood Qi of his sanguine fist print lit the place with red.
The punch was incredibly powerful. It was overbearing, and carried a tremendous strength wave that was stronger than that of a Lv 1 Enlightenment Realm martial artist.
The Cold-blood Hall youth knew that Su Mo was extraordinary, and that he would need to kill him before he attempted to grab the Billion Demonic Sword yet again.
"You're dead!"
Su Mo could not stand this anymore. These people had attacked him again and again, and his heart was already set on murder.
"Alright. I'll kill you first, then take the sword!"
The killing desire grew stronger in his eyes. He prepared to first take care of these people, then he would retrieve the Demonic Sword.
As long as he killed all of them, he could peacefully figure out how to take the sword.
Swish!
He swung out a sharp, murderous five-colored sword Qi instantly. It cut the air, then flashed and met the oncoming sanguine fist print.
Boom!
The sword Qi and fist print both shattered with an explosion, creating a massive airwave exploding out through the area, swaying and destroying the residual Demonic Souls.
At this point, although the Demonic Sword had already stopped swaying and no longer released Devilish Qi, he was still surrounded by Demonic Souls. This army of demonic souls, however, had been weak, and no longer posed a threat to anyone.
"He was really this powerful?" Su Mo raised his eyebrows as the youth had surprised him with his strength.
The youth in black was only at Lv 8 True Spirit Realm, which was even one level lower than his!
Su Mo knew that at his strength he could already kill a Martial King Realm expert, but this guy was a match for him!
"Are you Su Mo?"
The black-robed youth looked at Su Mo coldly with glittering sanguine eyes and said to him, "You will die today!"
"Are you from the Cold-Blood Hall?" Su Mo said coldly with disdain, "To me, you Cold-blood Hall members are nothing but pieces of sh*t. You scums should all go to hell!"
"You're tired of living!" The youth in black grew livid and said, his eyes flaring, "When you are in hell, remember it's me, Xue Chan, that killed you!"
As his voice fell, he punched with both hands. Two rows of even more powerful fist radiances traveled toward Su Mo.
The dazzling radiances carried with them an intense blood Qi as if they were made of blood.
This was the an blood skill from Cold-blood Hall.
Xue Chan?" Su Mo narrowed his eyes upon hearing the name. Xue Chan ranked 49th on the List of Top 1,000 Talents, which was only one position lower than Sikong Yan's.
Su Mo was not surprised that he was on the List of Top 1,000 Talents in and of itself, but was surprised to find out that this guy ranked so high on the list.
However, he was not afraid of Xue Chan since he no enjoyed a higher cultivation now.
Although he had not yet reached a level where he could could wield the force of the five elements, a Lv 8 True Spirit Realm martial artist could not match him, not even a top 50 talent.
"Die!" Su Mo gave a fierce battle cry as his body shone with golden light. He then charged toward the two rows of radiance.
As Su Mo and Xue Chan met fist with fist, the others started to fight each-other once again.
The bloody battle began again in front of the Demonic Sword.
More than 50 martial artists attacked each other madly for the weapon and no-one could easily remove the demonic blade.
If they tried, they would be attacked by others.
"Swoosh! Swoosh!"
The Sky-crushing Sword glowed, and then two rows of sword Qi tore apart the fist radiance instantly.
Su Mo did not slow down and continued to charge toward Xue Chan, striking yet again.
A brilliant five-colored sword radiance fell on his enemy.
Xue Chan was shocked. At the same time that he was knocked back, he punched at the sword Qi, his body shining with blood red light.
He was not arrogant enough to look down on Su Mo, after all, he was a well known man with incredible combat strength.
Moreover, he was one level lower than Su Mo.
Boom!
When the sword radiance met Xue Chan's punches, the shock wave of the explosion sent him instantly 333 meters back.
"Incredible!"
Holding steady, he felt his body ache and grow numb as his blood rushed into his throat.
However, he was not afraid of Su Mo since he still had a hidden card.
"It's over!"
Su Mo dashed at Xue Chan again, his body shining, while making another move.
"Obliteration Cut!"
A massive, five-colored sword Qi that stretched hundreds of meters and traveled toward Xue Chan quickly.
This was Su Mo's final move since his strength was far higher than that of his opponent. He did not need to use special abilities such as his Devouring Martial Soul.
However, Xue Chan smiled coldly at this move while a dim light gleamed in his eyes.
He punched again. A row of intense sanguine fist prints instantly hit the end of the sword Qi.
Poom!
The massive five-colored sword Qi was shattered with a loud bang.
"What is this?"
Su Mo's face went blank. He wondered how could Xue Chan's strength increased so fast. How could break his attack so easily?
"Su Mo, it's indeed over!" Xue Chan sneered and said coldly, "You can die now!"
A dim light glowed on his back, and then a huge eyeball emerged.
The eyeball was as big as a house and extremely horrifying as it was completely dark green and shone with dim, green light.
The eyeball was like a magic eye that had been removed, and it made the skin of all those who saw it crawl.
Xue Chan's martial soul was a Rank 2 Heaven Class Martial Soul!
Su Mo had never seen such a strange Martial Soul. He wondered just what it was capable of.
"Haha! The Ghostly Magic Sight!" Xue Chan laughed wildly and exerted his Martial Soul. It then burst out a beam of dim light that shrouded Su Mo instantly.
Su Mo trembled before his body turned motionless, and his face went blank.
Chapter 667: Upgrading to Heaven Class
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Under the dim light from the Ghostly Magic Sight, Su Mo felt like he had left the area where the Billion Demonic Sword was, and had come to a space of nothingness.
There was no sky, land, or air. There was only nothingness.
"Where am I?"
Su Mo was shocked and looked around. There was only him in this place.
"Is this a dreamland?"
Su Mo understood immediately that it must have been the Eyeball Martial Soul that put him in this illusionary place.
It must be some sort of dreamland since there had been no way out from the sword's realm.
What a strange power!
What an extraordinary Eyeball Martial Soul!
As shocked as he was, he did not panic. A dreamland was normally cast by the willpower of a martial artist. As long as his willpower was stronger than Xue Chan, he could easily break this dreamland.
When he was pondering, a massive beast shadow suddenly appeared.
It was a behemothian wolf carrying overwhelming aura. With a 3333-meter-long body, it looked like a huge mountain between heaven and earth.
Snarl!
The wolf let out a mad howl that shook the land, then charged toward Su Mo.
With a whistling, bloody wind, it opened its huge mouth and tried to swallow Su Mo.
The wolf's mouth was wide open and looked like it could swallow the world. Compared to its mouth, Su Mo was nothing but an ant standing in front of an elephant.
"An illusion?"
Su Mo's heart pounded in his chest as he stared at the worlf. Its power was so fantastic that he could not help but tremble.
Su Mo closed his eyes and then opened them again suddenly.
"Break!" Su Mo barked and poured out his willpower which then changed into formless blades and swept the entire dreamland.
Rumble!
The void exploded and then the dreamland collapsed immediately.
Outside of the dreamland, Xue Chan saw Su Mo's dull face from being pulled into the dreamland by his Martial Soul and sneered.
"Even if you're an unprecedented talent, you can't block my Ghostly Magic Sight!"
Xue Chan was extremely confident with his Ghostly Magic Sight. Even a top 20 talent on the list would be afraid of him, not to mention the little known Su Mo.
Su Mo could not fight back under the control of the Ghostly Magic Sight.
He then punched at Su Mo's body with a fist holding blood-red light.
Everyone was fighting for the Demonic Sword. He had no time to kill Su Mo in his dreamland, so he wanted to directly attack Su Mo's body.
When the red fist radiance was about to hit Su Mo, Su Mo's eyes suddenly flashed with a keen light. He woke up immediately.
Swoosh!
Su Mo struck out with his sword radiance, and shattered the oncoming attack.
"What?"
Xue Chan's face fell upon the sight. He could not believe that Su Mo broke his dreamland, or that he had done so in such a short span of time!
He was flabbergasted. Even a top 20 talent on the list could not destroy his dreamland.
"I'm taking your Martial Soul!"
Su Mo stared at Xue Chan with bright eyes. He wanted to devour this Eyeball Martial Soul and use it himself.
All of Martial Souls he collected before were all second-rate and useless.
However, this one was different. It was at Rank 2 Heaven Class and had such a special ability. He wanted to get his hands on it.
The highest level of Martial Soul in the entire East Continent was Rank 3 Heaven Class, which meant that this Rank 2 Heavan Soul one was precious.
Therefore, Su Mo was determined to kill this man and take the Martial Soul!
Swoosh!
Su Mo then charged toward Xue Chan, his Sky-crushing Sword covered with rampant five-colored Genuine Vitality.
"No!" Xue Chan was frightened. He turned around and tried to run.
Even his Ghostly Magic Sight could not kill Su Mo! He was terrified!
But how could Su Mo let him run?
"Devour!" He used his Devouring Martial Soul, and its devouring power shrouded Xue Chan immediately.
Xue Chan suddenly became motionless. Meanwhile, his Genuine Vitality and Qi and blood went into disorder.
"What's going on?" Xue Mo shouted in horror.
"Die!"
The sharp, five-colored sword radiance tore through his waist and continued on for thousands of feet.
Puff!
Blood spurt out, and Xue Chan's body was split in two.
"No!" A horrible shriek echoed out. Xue Chan felt his life flow away, and his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
As an honorable top 50 talent, he was dying shamefully in this place!
He hated that this place limited everybody's cultivation. Were they not in this place, he could kill Su Mo in a wave of his arm!
However, even if his heart remained unwilling, it was too late.
In a second, his aura faded. Xue Chan was dead.
"What? Xue Chan is dead!"
"How's that possible?"
"Su Mo killed Xue Chan!"
The others were shocked to see that Xue Chan was killed.
Many of them knew his identity. How could a talent like him die in this place!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Xue Chan's blood and Ghostly Magic Spirit Martial Soul were all devoured completely by Su Mo.
Su Mo ignored the blood and immediately got rid of it, but absorbed the Eyeball Martial Soul.
Subsequently, the enourmous Ghostly Magic Sight Martial Soul caused his Devouring Martial Soul began to vibrate violently.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
With a muffled sound, the nine purple halo rings of Su Mo's Devouring Martial Soul shattered immediately and then a golden halo ring appeared.
Su Mo then felt the power of his Martial Soul suddenly surge. It had grown seveal times stronger.
His Devouring Martial Soul had finally upgraded!
It had risen to Rank 1 Heaven Class!
Su Mo fell into ecstasy after a short moment of shock. His Martial Soul was finally Heaven Class!
After consuming countless Spiritual Stones and Beast Souls, his Martial Soul finally upgraded after consuming this one!
"Haha!"
Su Mo couldn't help but laugh aloud. This was indeed a surprise!
With a Heaven Class Martial Soul, he now had more confidence in taking the Demonic Sword.
Although his devouring power remained limited here, it was still many times more powerful than the Rank 9 Earth Class it had been previously.
Swoosh!
He then turned around and charged toward the Billion Demonic Sword.
This time, no-one would be qualified to challenge him.
