It was so fast that there was dazzling sparkles from friction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a final hit, extremely powerful and completely unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s face changed as soon as he saw the spike. He knew very well the power and force this spike was carrying. His scalp was tingling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder Yan Tai and the others weren’t trying very hard to catch him. They were aware of this secret weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo couldn’t be sure that the black spike was sent by the master of the Netherworld Devil Sect but he was certain it was an Emperor-to-be, the highest peak of the Firmament World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black spear cut to Su Mo in no time and completely took him by surprise. Su Mo had no way to dodge it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Drink!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no time to think, Su Mo shouted immediately, his Dark Force surging. He wielded his sword to confront the black spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor Sword fell on the black spear. Suddenly there was a loud bang along with dazzling sparkles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An intense shiver ran all over his body. Su Mo’s right arm was shaken open, almost losing the sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confronted by Su Mo’s slash, the black spear slowed down and deviated slightly but pushed on and stabbed into Su Mo’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, Yan Tai and the other four stopped to watch this scene, feeling much relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder came in the game and Su Mo would be dead. It was just a matter of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an Emperor-to-be, Second Demon Elder’s strength was well known by Yan Tai and his peers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across the entire Firmament World, only a handful of martial artists at the Emperor-to-be level could survive in the face of Second Demon Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time when Su Mo broke into the Devil Abyss, he survived thanks to his super defense tally and because Second Demon Elder didn’t give chase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was different this time. Su Mo would be dead with the defense tally or without.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pfft!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black spear hit Su Mo’s chest where Qi exploded. Su Mo spew out an arrow of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s body flew backwards rapidly like an arrow from the string.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Tai’s eyes gazed with surprise on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They thought Second Demon Elder’s strike would pierce through Su Mo’s chest and kill him at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not the case. The black spear didn’t pierce through Su Mo’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo flew backward rapidly for over 2,000 li. As soon as his body stopped, he tasted sweet in his throat and opened his mouth to spit out one mouthful blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo appeared pale. He looked up to the direction where the black spear came from. A blast in the space and then a tall man in black stepped out of the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shrouded by a thick layer of dark fog, this man in black was hard to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura, gloominess, dominance, and recklessness were simply powerful that Su Mo had never seen before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man might be stronger than Di Shi when it came to aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course his true combat strength couldn’t be judged just by his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second Demon Elder!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this tall man in black, Yan Tai and the other four elders immediately bowed down and greeted him respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder waved his hand gently and grabbed the black spear without looking at Yan Tai. He gazed at Su Mo’s chest while muttering in a husky voice, “Interesting! A suit of Imperial internal armor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder was also surprised that Su Mo survived his strike. He intended to finish him with one shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second Demon Elder?” Su Mo had never heard of such a figure in the Netherworld Devil Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he was facing the master of the Netherworld Devil Sect but it was not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently the Netherworld Devil Sect had more than two experts at the Emperor-to-be level. If this was only Second Demon Elder, there must be First Demon Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo turned his body and transformed into a beam of sword radiance, fleeing without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This so-called Second Demon Elder was too powerful, beyond his league. He’d better run when he still could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already badly injured by the first strike, all his internal organs shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would be a dead man without that Imperial internal armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo knew he had underestimated an Emperor-to-be expert’s strength. Also, that strike took him completely by surprise or he wouldn’t be in such a difficult position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quit struggling!” The husky voice sounded again. Seeing Su Mo’s attempt to escape, Second Demon Elder strode to give chase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder’s steps were very special. He could travel one thousand li in one step. The void and earth were shortened under his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His legs moved slowly but his speed was actually faster then Su Mo’s sword. The distance between them was shortened quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it!” Su Mo was shocked to see Second Demon Elder catching up so quickly, shortening the distance between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once caught up with, he would be in big trouble. He might have to use the Three Secret Techniques to fight for his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, there were five more mighty fighters behind them. He would have no advantage today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Phew!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo drove the Natal Spiritual Sword to its maximal speed. The Natal Spiritual Sword was fast but not as fast as this Second Demon Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s face darkened as the pursuer got closer and closer, getting ready for a fierce battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, the distance between them had been shortened enough for Second Demon Elder to launch another attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder’s voice was harsh and cold, full of vicissitudes of life. The black spear in his hand with a black shine all over suddenly thrusted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a flash, a pitch black spear radiance shot out, aiming at Su Mo’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear radiance was over one hundred zhang long and extremely thin, as if a long needle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the power of this spear radiance was condensed and sharpened to the extreme, capable of penetrating everything in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear radiance thin like a needle flew thousands of li in no time, approaching Su Mo at a speed indistinguishable to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s body hair stood up when a sense of danger crept up on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, even if he wanted to use the Three Secret Techniques, he wouldn’t have enough time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right before the spear radiance hit his head, Su Mo tilted his head and dodged the strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The needle like spear radiance passed by Su Mo’s ear closely and left a tiny black hole in the space that was almost impossible to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Phew!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief. However, dozens of similar spear radiance suddenly came from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Demon Elder striked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost at the same time, Su Mo saw a huge mountain piercing through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tall and towering, this huge mountain penetrated clouds and connected earth and heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Sacred Mountain of the Barbaric Mountains!\u003C\u002Fp>",1264,"2026-06-05T21:45:35.551Z",1,"novelbin.me","347c48396ff9c62f1c2e713238d4cf7b3c5b0292a068c6930fbecd0c204387d7","warrior-s-promise-chapter-1075","warrior-s-promise-chapter-1073",3336,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarrior-s-promise-cover.jpg"]
