Warrior's Promise

“You are not ready yet to take on your responsibility. At the moment, you only have to focus on making yourself more powerful!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said.

“Make myself more powerful?”

Su Mo’s expression turned grave and he continued to ask, “Elder, I am only a Split-Soul. If I am powerful, what will happen to the Original Soul?”

Su Mo had been perturbed by the question. If he was powerful enough to suppress Di Yihun and Tuoba Qingyun, the Sovereign would not be able to come back to life!

“No. If you are able to merge with the Original Soul, you will become the Original Soul!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said as he shook his head.

“Oh?” Light flashed across Su Mo’s eyes when he heard what the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign had said. He would take over as the Original Soul if he could merge with the Original Soul.

However, he did not have any intention of becoming the Original Soul, all the more becoming the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign..

“Are you not afraid that if my strength surpassed that of the Original Soul and I suppressed him without merging with him, you would never be able to come back to life?” Su Mo asked, perturbed by the thought.

Logically speaking, the Original Soul would be the determining factor for the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign’s resurrection. However, if Su Mo’s strength surpassed that of the Original Soul, the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign would not be able to come back to life.

“I don’t ask to be resurrected. I only hope that one of you will aspire to break through the shackles of the Cosmic World.” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign replied.

“The Cosmic World?”

Su Mo was baffled. If the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign had no desire to be resurrected, why would he go through the cycles of reincarnation!

Even if Su Mo had the aspiration, it had nothing to do with the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign!

After pondering for a while, Su Mo asked, “Where is the Cosmic World? Is it in the Deity Plane?”

“The world that you are in, the Four Main Regions, Myriads Small World, and Deity Plane are within the Cosmic World!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said, hiding nothing from Su Mo.

“Are there other worlds besides the Cosmic World?” Su Mo’s eyes lit up. There must be other worlds in existence other than the Cosmic World.

That was the first time he had been let into such a secret and he was curious about it.

“The Primordial World brings about the beginning. It then turns into 3,000 worlds of which the Cosmic World was one.” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign explained.

“3,000 worlds?” Su Mo was astonished by it. Are there 2,999 worlds in existence other than the universe?

“The Cosmic World has been around for eons. Since the Primordial Age, it has witnessed the birth, growth, and the pinnacle of martial arts. Now that the Cosmic World is fading away, this era is about to come to an end!”

The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said as he placed his hands behind his back. There was a drastic change in his voice and he seemed to be muttering to himself.

“What will happen when the era comes to an end?” Su Mo asked curiously. He felt tiny and insignificant when he faced the Sovereign from the Primordial Age.

“When the era ends, nothing will be left in the Cosmic World. The living creatures, thousands of races, and the billions of stars will be destroyed. None of these will remain!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign responded.

“What? How can this be?”

When Su Mo heard it, he was shocked. Will everything be destroyed? Is that the end of the world?

Su Mo knitted his brows. He felt that the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign was spouting nonsense but he knew that he would not lie to him.

The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign did not explain to Su Mo and he continued and said, “I come from the Wild Age. I led the human race and we managed to survive in the narrow space. I have been studying the martial arts path and finally, I have formulated a great path that can manipulate the life and reincarnation cycle. For eons, I have never been slacked about it. It is the dream of every top power in the Cosmic World to go beyond the era and we will pay any price for it.”

Having said that, the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign quietened down, causing the atmosphere to come to a standstill.

Su Mo was silent as well. From what the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign mentioned, Su Mo seemed able to feel the life that he had lived.

The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign was from the Primordial Age and he had been searching the path of martial arts. He had grown from being someone weak to a powerful being.

However, after he had become strong, he realized that he was unable to go beyond the era.

“Elder, did you go into the cycles of reincarnation for the sake of going beyond the era?” Su Mo asked grimly. He knew that in order to survive after the era had come to an end, the only way was to go beyond the era.

“Yes!”

The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign nodded and said, “The fate of the living creatures in the Cosmic World is determined by the end of the era. I have to go through the cycles of reincarnation so that I can have the hope of going beyond it!”

“I see!” Su Mo nodded. He finally understood that the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign had gone through the cycles of reincarnation as he wanted to go beyond the era.

“Elder, is it only possible to go beyond the era when the three reincarnated bodies merge together?” Su Mo asked with a grave look. That was an important question for him.

Once the merger took place, he would be a totally different person.

“There are a lot of changes in the reincarnation process and everything is possible!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign replied casually.

“Everything is possible?” When Su Mo heard it, he was astounded. What does he mean by that?

Does he mean that the reincarnated bodies do not have to merge together and it is still possible for them to go beyond the era?

Su Mo’s mind was flooded with questions.

If he surpasses Di Yihun but chooses not to merge with Di Yihun, will the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign be able to come back to life?

If he wants to go beyond the era, how should he go about doing it?

Since there are 3,000 worlds, can they not go to the other worlds?

What Primordial Spirit does his Devouring Primordial Spirit belong to?

The Original Soul should possess the mind of the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign but why is the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign allowing him to surpass the Original Soul?

Su Mo had a lot of questions and he was perturbed by them.

“Elder...!”

Su Mo was about to speak when the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign interrupted him.

“You may go! Go and complete your task!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said as he waved his hand.

“Are you sending me away? Am I not supposed to receive the blessings?” Su Mo asked.

“You are a reincarnated body and you don’t need any blessing!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said flatly.

Huh!

Su Mo was speechless. He was ready to receive his blessings but nothing was given to him!

“Elder, I have one more question for you. If the three of us do not merge together, will you be able to come back to life?” Su Mo asked loudly. He believed that the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign was powerful and he must have possessed some trump cards.

Based on the information that he had given Su Mo, the end of the era was approaching. The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign would not put all his hopes in the reincarnated bodies.

“Yes!” The Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign said faintly.

Having said that, he waved his hand. The area twirled and everything started to move.

In an instant, Su Mo realized that he was back to the outside world, standing in the sky above the platform.

The fight was still going on at the platform, and Tu Ying and Ji Yuesong were sparring with each other.

The fight between the two of them was aggressive. Ji Yuesong was like a bright sun and he was mighty.

However, he was suppressed by Tu Ying and he lost the fight.

The martial artists around them were talking among themselves as they were surprised by the outcome.

“Duan Jingtian is out!”

“I wonder what kind of blessings he has received. I am so envious of him!”

“He will become more powerful in the future!”

The minute Su Mo appeared, the people noticed him and they were envious of him.

Su Mo was speechless when he heard what they had said. He did not receive anything. He had worked hard for nothing.

However, at the least, he had proven his potential to Elder Xuan Tian.

Moreover, he had obtained some confidential information. It might not be a secret but if he had not been there, he would not have found out about them.

Whoosh!

In a flash, Su Mo flew down and landed beside Qin’er.
