Chapter 2628 - Unable To Keep A Low Profile

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

Su Mo devoured ninety percent of the Fire-Based Liquid, left the cave, and entered the one with the Wood-Based Liquid.

He then devoured the Wood-Based Liquid, then went for the Water-Based Liquid and the Metal-Based Liquid. It had been a successful run, albeit he jad met many who complained and blamed him.

Basically everyone in the Myriad Holy Mountain was a disciple below the Supreme Being realm. None of them dared to make a move on Su Mo.

So, Su Mo ignored everyone and took what he needed.

Finally, Su Mo arrived at the cave with the Earth-Based Liquid. Once he went in, he found that they were many in the stone chamber already, but none of them had entered the pool.

“Eh?”

Curious, Su Mo strode into the chamber and saw only one man sitting cross-legged among the gray Earth-Based Liquid, his eyes closed.

The young man was not very tall, but he had a muscular body and a square face. On his person he had on a pair of shorts made of animal skin, his upper body bare.

All the Source Liquid in the pool circled around the brawny man as they drilled crazily into his body.

The others just stood by the pool, not daring to share it with the man.

“He knows how to devour too!” Su Mo voiced his surprise at the sight. The stout man was apparently devouring the Source Liquid.

The man’s devouring speed was over a hundred times slower than Su Mo’s, perhaps even his Devouring Spirit was not too strong.

Su Mo observed him cautiously. The man’s devouring power was completely and fundamentally different from his own.

“Wu Shan’s here!”

“He’s here to absorb the Source Liquid again!”

“Brother Qiu Yuanshan’s is here. There’s nothing he can do about it!”

Su Mo’s arrival immediately caught the attention of some. After all, the last time he had been there he had caused a lot of dissatisfaction.

Su Mo ignored everyone. He approached the edge of the pool and, without going in, began to devour the Source Liquid.

The strong devouring power shrouded the entire pool. All the Earth-Based Liquid rose to the sky and headed directly towards Su Mo’s body.

The crowd was shocked to see Su Mo devouring the Source Energy, but then they exchanged odd looks and snickered among themselves.

Was Wu Shan planning to provoke Qiu Yuanshan?

“Damn it!”

Su Mo’s actions forced Qiu Yuanshan, the short man, to open his eyes out of anger.

He had to rely on the Source Liquid to consolidate his foundation and break through to Ninth Grade, Middle Rank. He would not allow Su Mo to get away with devouring the Source Liquid.

Boom!

Without hesitation, Qiu Yuanshan threw a punch directly at Su Mo’s chest.

The fist went extremely fast. The punch hit right on Su Mo’s chest like lightning.

The blow was intended to stop Su Mo from devouring the Source Liquid.

Swoosh!

But Su Mo had come prepared. He quickly evaded the fist, and the arm ended up firmly hitting the wall of the stone chamber.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang in the stone chamber. The air waves rolled. The ground shook. The entire Myriad Holy Mountain rocked.

However, clearly the Myriad Holy Mountain was held in the power of many arrays. The arrays’ light in the stone chamber shone. No destruction had been caused.

“Here’s some advice: Don’t mess with me!” Su Mo’s voice rang. He was already standing on the other side of the pool, the remnants of the Earth-Based Liquid all devoured by him.

There was not much Earth-Based Liquid left, far less than the four elemental fluids in the other pools. The rest must have been devoured by Qiu Yuanshan.

Right then, Su Mo could have triggered his previous Primordial Spirits. His combat powers had recovered and improved too. He was not afraid of anyone under the Supreme Being realm.

“Wu Shan, is it? You’re so arrogant!” Qiu Yuanshan stood up from the empty pool, glaring icily at him.

There was nothing left!

The Source Liquid had been swept away by Su Mo in an instant. His thoughts were focusing on the kill.

This Source Liquid was much purer than the Source Energy in the Dawn Stones. With these, he had been confident to upgrade himself to Ninth Grade, Middle Rank Priest Tian Hua’s birthday.

Now that it had been sucked dry by Su Mo, he could not contain his fury.

Su Mo ignored Qiu Yuanshan’s icy cold glare again as he turned to head out.

What a joke!

Everyone could use the Source Liquid. How was it that he could but no one else was allowed to?

“You have a death wish!”

Disregarded by Su Mo, Qiu Yuanshan was totally enraged. He was prepared to teach him a lesson.

Right then, a majestic voice sounded suddenly within the stone chamber. It was loud and elusive.

“No fights allowed here! Violators won’t be allowed to enter ever again!”

The voice commanded authority and strong will, shaking everyone to the core.

When he heard that, Qiu Yuanshan released his fists and contained his inner rage.

“Wu Shan, I’ll remember you!” Qiu Yuanshan shouted when he saw Su Mo exiting the stone chamber. How cocky! He would have to teach him a lesson if they met again!

Su Mo totally ignored Qiu Yuanshan. After he got out, he found a secluded place in the mountain and began refining the Chaotic Power Source.

He had devoured a lot of Source Liquid of the Five Elements this time, enough for his training for quite some time.

In the next year and a half, Su Mo did not leave the Myriad Holy Mountain. He stayed there fusing his Chaotic Power Source, absorbing more of the dense Five Elemental Source Liquid as he trained in peace.

He went to the caves with the Source Liquid of the Five Elements numerous times to devour the resources, raising complaints during each visit.

Each time the disciples of the Palmy Branch saw him, it was like they had seen the devil, rendering Su Mo quite speechless.

Because he had basically devoured all of the Source Liquid of the Five Elements during the first time, not much was available during his following visits, mainly due to the limited production and short supply.

Su Mo had yet to meet Qiu Yuanshan. The man might have left the mountain long ago.

“Time to go!” Su Mo muttered from the large rock he was sitting on.

After one year and a half, his training had progressed very quickly. He had reached the peak of Ninth Grade, Low Rank. There was still a way to go before he could get to Ninth Grade, Middle Rank.

Although he had fused with the Vastness Purple Qi, which had greatly shortened the time taken to consolidate, unlimited resources did not translate to indefinite breakthroughs. The transition required time.

Luckily, after fusing with the attainments of the Ice Rule, he did not have to spend time studying the Devouring Rule for a while. Otherwise, a Rule level that was too low would restrict his training advancement.

Of course, the Devouring Rule was very useful. He would definitely continue to study it when he had the time.

Su Mo got up, not to look for Qin Zhi, but instead he left the Myriad Holy Mountain on his own as he headed for the Palmy Branch.

“Priest Tian Hua!”

As he flew in the sky, he thought, although he did not fully trust Quan Ruhai’s kindness, he would attend the birthday celebration.

It would be the best time to seek mentorship, whether it be from Reverend Jin Wu or Priest Tian Hua.

The two of them were said to be held in high regard in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance. Perhaps they had a leader supporting them.

So, Su Mo hoped to become a student under one of them. Once he had their backing, he could confront Di Yihun, for it was highly likely that the latter was residing in the headquarters of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance.

Time passed slowly. Su Mo gradually moved away from the Myriad Holy Mountain as he kept flying towards Palmy City.

“Eh?”

Then, Su Mo came to a stop and his eyes widened at the person in front. A middle-aged man stood in the void, blocking his way.

Swoosh~ Swoosh~

More people appeared at the front, back, and either side of Su Mo. A total of five people had him surrounded.

“Wu Shan, this is the end of the line!” the middle-aged man in front said in an icy cold voice, devoid of compassion.

The man was wearing a large black robe, his hair in a bun, his face long and narrow face, making him look decisive and mean.

“Who are you guys?” Su Mo frowned, dignified and raging at the same time.

The last time he had been to Myriad Holy Mountain, someone had wanted him killed. This time, someone still wanted him dead. He was very much annoyed.

Was it Xiao Yushu?

Or Qiu Yuanshan?

Su Mo’s murderous intention rose. He did not want Di Yihun to know that he was in the Palmy Branch, so he had been keeping a low profile. Yet these people had been constantly testing his patience, making him unable to lay low.

However, right now, he could not afford to be careless, because he could perceive, based on their aura, that out of the five, three of them were at Ninth Grade, High Rank, while the other two were Ninth Grade, Middle Rank fighters. The lineup was not exactly weak.

“Ask that when you get to hell!” The man snorted and, with a flick of his hand, gave the order, “Kill him!”

Instantly, the four other man rushed at him. They knew a large number of disciples from the Palmy Branch gathered there.. They dared not delay.
