Ever since he underwent the Martial King Ordeal and this sword lost a lot of Demonic Qi to the Lightning Punishment, he had left it neglected in his storage space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, this sword was suddenly awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it because of the killing Ultimacy?”Su Mo guessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Demonic Sword contained dark and evil Demonic Spirit, and it worshipped the way of killing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had even tried to convince him to enter the way of killing and become spellbound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo sighed and prepared to take out the sword. Although its ability to mess with his mind was terrifying, that happened a while ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a very different man now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, during the Martial King Ordeal, the sword was damaged by the powerful Lightning Punishment. The Lightning Punishment specialized in destroying evil powers, so it definitely weakened the sword’s Demonic Spirit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo summoned the Billion Demonic Sword into his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz. Buzz. Buzz~~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword was still shaking, with deep red sparks dancing on its pitch black blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, chilling Demonic Spirit moved up Su Mo’s arms and into his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s eyes flashed intensely, and his consciousness spilled out of his mind to defend against the Demonic Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he channeled Dark Force into his hands and shook forcefully, expelling most of Demonic Qi from the sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? How are you so powerful?” said the voice of the Demonic Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the Spirit retreated instantly like a tide and shrank into the sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo smiled disdainfully. Did the spirit think he was still in the Enlightenment Realm or True Darkness Realm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young man, how did you become so powerful?” a voice from the sword echoed in Su Mo’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. It’s been so long! Did you think I hadn’t improved?” Su Mo chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Su Mo’s words, the Demonic Spirit fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So long?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had only been a year, which was nothing for some talented experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, the Demonic Spirit continued, “Let’s strike a deal. You should let me absorb all the killing Ultimacy on this mountain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let you absorb it?” Su Mo frowned and asked confusedly, “Can you absorb Ultimacies?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. My owner left this killing Ultimacy here!” it said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The owner of the Billion Demonic Sword was the Sword Devil, Dugu Shang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo carefully recalled that the Demonic Spirit’s killing aura was quite similar to that of the killing Ultimacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that the Sword Devil Dugu Shang had comprehended the killing Ultimacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why should I let you absorb it?” Su Mo asked quietly. The Billion Demonic Sword was no use to him anymore, so he did not want a useless weapon to ruin his prize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demonic Spirit was silent for a while and said, “I’ll give you something good in return!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What will you give me?” Su Mo asked quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll let you enter the Way of Killing and fully take advantage of this sword!” it said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bullsh*t!” Su Mo scoffed, “Enter into the Way of Killing? Do you want to keep destroying my mind?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I couldn’t even harm your mind if I tried!” the Demonic Spirit sighed. It was telling the truth, since Su Mo was much stronger than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop wasting my time. I won’t do it!” Su Mo shook his head and prepared to put the sword back in the storage ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demonic Spirit hurriedly said, “If you don’t want to enter the Way of Killing, why would you comprehend the killing Ultimacy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo was stunned and said with a frown, “The killing Ultimacy is different from your Way!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course they’re the same. The killing Ultimacy is part of the Way of Killing, so how could they be different?” retorted the spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh...!” Su Mo was at a loss for words. He knew nothing about the Way of Killing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought that entering the Way meant being entirely spellbound and becoming bloodthirsty!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about you let me absorb the killing Ultimacy here, and I’ll let you fully take advantage of this sword?” the Demonic Spirit asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re no use to me right now, so what’s the point?” Su Mo chuckled coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Su Mo’s words, the Demonic Spirit burst into maniacal laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>",1096,"2026-06-05T21:45:26.830Z",1,"novelbin.me","5f82c2e73947126db2454b9203e70fab113775f950b888c137ad83eef12de994","warrior-s-promise-chapter-973","warrior-s-promise-chapter-971",3336,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarrior-s-promise-cover.jpg"]
