When the elder heard Su Mo’s question, his expression kept changing and he looked terrible.
The elder had been seriously injured by Su Mo and many disciples of Xuan Yu Sect had been killed by him. Moreover, Su Mo had created a mess in Xuan Yu Sect and thus the elder hated Su Mo to the core.
However, he knew that he was no match for Su Mo.
He knew from the earlier blow that Su Mo had thrown out that his combat force was more powerful than his. Although the disparity was not great, he could not contend with Su Mo at the moment as he was seriously injured.
If he offended Su Mo at Xuan Yu Sect, the entire Sect would be implicated.
“All right, I will let you use the Space Teleportation Formation!” After a while, the elder nodded his head unhappily.
He had to agree to it as he was not as powerful as Su Mo. If he continued to set himself against Su Mo, he would be asking for trouble.
“Great!” Su Mo nodded and he sighed within himself. The elder is a jerk!
When I talked to you nicely earlier and even offered you with the Spiritual Crystals, you refused to accede to my request. Why must you wait ’til I bash you up to agree to let me use the Space Teleportation Formation! Aren’t you a jerk!
“Follow me!”
The elder called out to Su Mo and flew toward the Teleportation Hall and Su Mo quickly caught up with him.
“Friend, may I know which sect you are from? You are only at Rank 7 Martial Emperor Realm but you have the strength of a Martial Honored Realm martial artist. You are amazing!”
While they were flying towards the Teleportation Hall, the elder tried to extract information from Su Mo to find out about his background.
“I am from a small sect which is not worth mentioning!” Su Mo shook his head as he had no intention of disclosing his identity.
He was thinking to himself that he had to avoid using his Dark Forces and powers as they were unique.
After he merged the Dark Forces together, they displayed three colors. This was unique from the rest of the martial artists and he could easily attract attention.
He had to be careful lest he got himself into danger again through the men from the Sorcerer Tribe finding out about it.
When the elder heard Su Mo’s reply, his face twitched. He did not believe that Su Mo was from a small sect as they would not have the resources to groom such a powerful genius!
How can it be!
Even Su Mo, who is ranked number one on the True Sage Board, is not as powerful!
Very quickly, the elder brought Su Mo to the Teleportation Hall.
The Teleportation Hall was spacious and a large Space Teleportation Formation was located at the center of the Hall.
Su Mo immediately walked into the Space Teleportation Array without saying a word, and the elder did not ask him for any Spiritual Crystals. The elder took out his own Spiritual Crystals and activated the Space Teleportation Formation.
“Elder, I shall make a move then!”
Su Mo cupped his fist at the elder when light radiated from the Formation and he slowly disappeared into the Formation.
Without spending a single Spiritual Crystal, Su Mo got to use the Space Teleportation Formation. What he had used was his sword to get this service.
When the elder saw that Su Mo had left, his face darkened. He had even thought of interrupting the Space Teleportation Formation and leaving Su Mo be stranded in the sky.
However, if he had done so, he would be destroying the Formation, which he was unwilling to do.
He had spent a fortune to ask a renowned Array Master to help him set up the Space Teleportation Formation and thus he could not destroy it.
“Sigh!”
The elder sighed after a long while and he was filled with regrets.
If he had known that the youth was so powerful, he would have agreed to let him use the Space Teleportation Formation. He would have obtained 10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals and at the same time, not had any trouble.
Now, he not only did not gain any Spiritual Crystals, he had been seriously injured and caused the sect to suffer losses.
After a slight fainting spell, Su Mo appeared in a spacious hall.
He looked around him and saw that the hall was huge. It was 100 feet high and 305 meters wide. It was a Teleportation Hall.
There were several Space Teleportation Formations in the Teleportation Hall and a few martial artists who were at the Martial Honored Realm were controlling the Space Teleportation Formations.
The Teleportation Hall was crowded as many martial artists were using the Space Teleportation Formations to travel around.
Su Mo enquired about the destinations of the different Space Teleportation Formations and started to travel in them.
With the help of the Space Teleportation Formations, Su Mo got from one star to another.
At times when there was no Space Teleportation Formation at the destination, Su Mo had to travel on his own in search for it.
Su Mo traveled one month after another without taking a rest. It took more than nine months to reach Star Guzhou, after traveling to more than 400 stars.
When Su Mo was at Star Guzhou, he flew at a lightning speed in the clouds and headed towards the direction of the Firmament Palace.
He could not return to Shenwu Academy, so he thought of returning to the Firmament Palace before deciding on the next step that he should take.
His cultivation level was currently at Rank 8 Martial Emperor Realm. As he was on the road, he cultivated without deliberately breaking through the shackles but he successfully had a breakthrough in his cultivation level along the way.
He was able to do so due to the Divine Spiritual Liquid which had greatly enhanced his body and solidified his cultivation.
After Su Mo was out of the True Sage Territory, he was able to enhance his cultivation level by two ranks effortlessly.
However, after he had advanced two ranks higher, he felt that his foundation was a little unstable. His Dark Forces were not as pure and sturdy and he was worried that it would not be easy for him to advance in the future.
“Since everyone thinks that I am dead, Gu Tianyi may not save Nie Qian and Han Ying from the Torture Room.” Su Mo muttered to himself as he was flying.
In fact, Su Mo would not have returned to Star Guzhou if not for Han Ying and Nie Qian. He would have gone to the Ming Xu Galaxy to look for Hong Qingxuan.
Nie Qian and Han Ying had to suffer in the Torture Room for five years but Su Mo could not simply leave Star Guzhou and not bother about them.
Although he had not known them for long, he admired them for their loyalty and had long regarded them as his friends.
He had decided to head for the Ming Xu Galaxy after he had saved Han Ying and Nie Qian.
Su Mo was worried that Gu Tianyi would not keep his promise after learning that he was dead. It would be terrible if he did not get Nie Qian and Han Ying out of the Torture Room!
Only Gu Tianyi could help the two of them but since Su Mo could not reveal himself, he had to think carefully about how he should handle the matter.
Several days later, Su Mo reached the Firmament Palace.
After a year, the Firmament Palace had expanded and took on a new look.
Tushan Town had turned into a small city and the Firmament Palace was located in the city within a city.
Although Tushan Town was in a remote area, it had attracted many martial artists as it developed and it was flourishing.
Su Mo did not make his return known to the people. He only informed his father, Su Hong, and some higher echelons in the Palace as he wanted to keep a low profile.
