…

Su Mo looked at the generous amount of rewards that he received from the Invincible Demon Clan System and could not help but shed tears.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Cycles was an ancient formation. It was one of the top ten peerless formations in the legends of the Cloud Hong Continent.

Even if it was just an incomplete formation, its power could not be underestimated.

Su Mo had heard from his dead master that the power of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Cycles was not his power alone. The terrifying thing was that the power of this formation could enhance the body of the person who cast it.

In other words, as long as Su Mo did not leave the clan, he would be a genuine Golden Core Realm powerhouse.

As for the High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation, many clans had access to it. Previously, the Crimson Heart Clan had only one, but it had been destroyed. Even the methods required to set up the formation were lost.

But this High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation was low-leveled. The method to set up the High-grade Spirit Gathering Formations had long been lost, and no one could research it any more.

The Heavenly Spirit Formation also assisted in cultivation, but it supposedly only appeared in legends. Its function was to improve the comprehension ability of the cultivator who used this formation. At the same time, it would reduce the difficulty of making a breakthrough in cultivation.

Combined with the High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation, it could be a divine weapon for cultivation.

Su Mo was thrilled when he saw this. Taking revenge on the Cerulean Ocean Sword Clan was no longer just a pipe dream.

Destroying the Cerulean Ocean Sword Clan was only a small goal for Su Mo now. He wanted to bring glory to the Crimson Heart Clan. Su Mo wanted them to become the strongest clan in the world.

Su Mo gathered his thoughts and contained his excitement. Then he ordered the system subconsciously, ‘Set up the Protective Barrier Formation!’

Bright circuit board-like lines began to appear around the ruins of the Crimson Heart Village. Then, they weaved a vast net that enveloped the entire dilapidated Crimson Heart Village. There seemed to be stars flickering on the large barrier.

However, only three stars were emitting light. The rest of the stars seemed to be dim. Su Mo knew that the Thirty-Six Heavenly Cycles was not complete, so it could not reveal its entire appearance.

After that, the formation disappeared into the void and could no longer be seen.

Su Mo then placed the Illusion Barrier Formation and the Detection System Formation outside the village to protect himself against intruders. But these were only ordinary formations, so no abnormalities were seen when they were set up.

“Then where should I put the Heavenly Spirit Gathering Formation and the High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation?” Su Mo said as he began to feel troubled.

Su Mo was now alone, and he would undoubtedly have to recruit some disciples of his own in the near future. He thought that if he placed these two formations in the main hall of the village, his future disciples would not be able to enjoy its benefits. But if he sets it elsewhere, its effectiveness won’t be evenly distributed.

“Please rest assured, Master. The High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation and the Heavenly Spirit Formation are natural formations that can change the world. However, the closer you are to the core, the more benefits you will receive, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

The system noticed Su Mo’s worries and explained the situation carefully.

Su Mo was delighted when he heard this.

‘As the new leader of the Crimson Heart Clan, it shouldn’t be a problem for me to cultivate at the core of these formations every day.’

After thinking about it, Su Mo set up the formations in the cultivation room in the village’s main hall.

The moment the High-grade Spirit Gathering Formation was set up in the village’s main hall, the surrounding spiritual energy began to surge as it swirled wildly throughout the Crimson Heart Village.

For a time, the spiritual energy in the Crimson Heart Clan condensed and dispersed into a mist. Some drifted through the air and improved Crimson Heart Village’s cultivating environment.

Some mist dispersed into the ground, causing the land and vegetation that had been trampled in battle to recover miraculously. This scene made Su Mo feel greatly amazed.

However, Su Mo did not remain still and sigh. Instead, he quickly entered the cultivation room and sat down to begin cultivating immediately. In just an instant, Su Mo felt the effects of the two formations.

Under the effect of the rich spiritual energy, Su Mo’s cultivation speed was more than a hundred times faster than usual. His comprehension of cultivation resembled a raging waterfall, unable to be stopped.

In an instant, Su Mo made a breakthrough. He went from stage five to stage six of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

“If I continue cultivating like this, it won’t be long before I become a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. When the time comes, I’ll definitely kill my way up the ranks and avenge my master and clan.”

Su Mo’s eyes lit up as he spoke.

Ding!

“Master has made a breakthrough with the help of the two cultivation formations. Master will be rewarded with the Innate Saint-like Physique!”

As the system’s voice faded, Su Mo’s body began to emit intense golden light. Then impurities started to seep out of Su Mo’s body. After the impurities were released, Su Mo’s body began to expel the tainted blood within him.

It was not until Su Mo’s blood began to emit traces of golden light that it stopped. Su Mo was shocked at this moment.

“There’s a reward for making a breakthrough in cultivation? Innate Saint-like Physique? F*ck, am I a genius now?” Su Mo muttered to himself as if he was possessed.

Innate Saint-like Physique was one of the strongest enhancement scrolls in the Cloud Hong Continent. No one has come across such a thing in ten thousand years.

The Innate Saint-like Physique was unparalleled. It was once an immortal level enhancement scroll that was torn apart by the hands of an advanced saint-like being.

At this moment, Su Mo felt extremely fortunate. However, he did not dare delay his cultivation process and continued cultivating.

Su Mo spent most of the day cultivating. He would occasionally go back to repair the dilapidated buildings of the village.

Initially, Su Mo had planned to leave the Crimson Heart Village and rebuild elsewhere, and when he finally had the strength, he would take his revenge and restore the Crimson Heart Clan to its former glory.

Now, with the Invincible Demon Clan System assisting him, Su Mo could raise his strength while restoring the Crimson Heart clan.

However, the Crimson Heart Village was now in ruins. There were broken buildings everywhere, and even his so-called cultivation room was exposed to the open air. So Su Mo could only slowly restore the village by himself.

The sun had set and arose, and the next day quietly arrived.

Su Mo continued to cultivate. But because he was now an innate saint-like being, the amount of cultivation required for a breakthrough had significantly increased. Su Mo did not manage to make a breakthrough today.

Just as Su Mo was cultivating, five figures with long swords on their backs approached the Crimson Heart Village. The people stopped in their tracks in front of the Crimson Heart Village’s mountain range.

“Is it really a good idea to walk up to a village like this, Big Brother?” One of the five people asked the leader.

“Don’t worry. The Cerulean Ocean Sword Clan has exterminated the Crimson Heart Clan. Others won’t even bother if we came here to scavenge for goods,” the leader’s elder brother replied.

“That’s right, Little Brother. Don’t worry. The Crimson Heart Clan has been exterminated. No one cares if we came here or not,” another person also replied.

These people were the disciples of the Black Blade Clan. They had heard of the destruction of the Crimson Heart Clan, so they decided to come and take advantage of the situation and scavenge for goods.

At this moment, they did not know that they had been discovered by Su Mo, who was cultivating.

“It seems that a few little mice had come to get their hands on the Crimson Heart Clan’s treasures.. They are a reckless bunch indeed!”
