Warrior's Promise

"Well, that's settled!" Su Mo stood up and made the decision despite opposition.

"I'll leave it to you. Remember to spread the news to the Netherworld Devil Sect as soon as possible."

Su Mo knew they must have ways to spread the news quickly.

Thinking that the Netherworld Devil Sect could come over anytime, he warned them. "The faster the news spreads, the safer the Firmament Palace will be."

"This...!" Di Shi and Hai Mingjiang looked hesitant. "Su Mo is unshakable in his determination."

Hai Mingjiang was silent for a while and then said, "Okay, Palace Master Su, we'll spread the news for you. However, you don't need to fight. You can use this time to transfer all the people of the Firmament Palace and hide them."

Su Mo meditated in silence. "Hai Mingjiang's proposal is possible."

It would be very simple for him to take everyone into the Divine Map.

However, he could neither take away nor hide the main gate of the Firmament Palace.

He also wanted to protect the Flood-dragon tribe of the East Sea. If he hid, he could continue to cultivate in peace and keep on improving, however, the Flood-dragon tribe would suffer great calamity.

He was indebted to the Flood-dragon tribe, so he could not abandon them.

Most importantly, even if he contended with the Netherworld Devil Sect master, he did not have to fear. Even if he could not defeat the master, he would not be killed because he could escape.

"Pavilion Leader Hai, I've decided. Please don't say that again!"

Su Mo shook his head as he said, "Don't wait anymore! Go ahead and do it quickly!"

He said no more and left.

Hai Mingjiang and Di Shi looked at each other in speechless despair. They reluctantly left and sent word according to Su Mo's plan.

After he left the Firmament Temple, Su Mo went to find Gold One and the other puppets and asked about the craftsmanship materials.

Last time, he had also asked Gold One and the other puppets to prepare the materials that were required to refine the Natal Spiritual Sword.

They had already prepared the materials. After getting them, Su Mo directly left the Firmament Palace.

Then, he flew eastward and prepared to go to the East Sea.

He rode on a sword at an incredibly fast speed like a streak of lightning. In the twinkling of an eye, a thousand miles had been covered.

He needed to hurry to the East Sea Dragon Palace fearing that it would be attacked by the Netherworld Devil Sect.

As for the Firmament Palace, he did not worry too much. After all, the Sky-river Formation was not trivial. Even if the Netherworld Devil Sect could break it, it would take them a lot of time.

Before he went to the East Sea, the news that Su Mo would contend with Wu Sen, the Netherworld Devil Sect master, had already spread in the Firmament World.

The news was overwhelming. It sent a shiver of excitement across the Central Continent. It spread in all directions at an unimaginable speed.

The news was that Su Mo now had the strength of the Martial Emperor Realm and that he would challenge Wu Sen, the Netherworld Devil Sect master.

The news was awesome. Wu Sen had just broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm and had become an invincible existence in the Firmament World.

Yet Su Mo took the initiative to challenge him.

Su Mo had the strength of the Martial Emperor Realm? What an exaggeration? It was too fast!

Like thunder, it caused a stir in the world and shocked hundreds of millions of martial artists. In no time, the whole Firmament World thoroughly went wild.

In major cities, big streets and small alleys, inns and hotels, wherever there were people, they discussed this matter.

The news spread so fast that it had spread across the whole Firmament Continent and was spreading to the sea areas in all directions just as Su Mo arrived at the coast of the East Sea.

Originally, many superpowers had been considering courting the Netherworld Devil Sect.

After all, Wu Sen had become the lone Martial Emperor in the Firmament World. He had become invincible, so all forces had to think for themselves.

Upon hearing the news, all forces thought twice and prepared to wait and see instead.

Nobody thought Su Mo could defeat Wu Sen, but he might be forceful enough to fight Wu Sen.

If Wu Sen could not kill him, Su Mo would get back at them if they were friendly with the Netherworld Devil Sect.

The Yins were the best example. Millions of tribe members had died miserably.

Upon hearing the news, all forces who had been preparing for purposeful actions had to stop.

The news had spread across the world, so naturally, it reached the Netherworld Devil Sect.

The Netherworld Devil Sect then sent out the message that Wu Sen accepted the challenge.

At the same time, the Netherworld Devil Sect announced that all forces must become subject to it after the challenge. Otherwise, they would kill without exception.

The move was so arrogant. The sect was giving an order to the superpowers of the Firmament World.

Obviously, the sect was not taking the battle with Su Mo seriously. They thought they would definitely win.

As the news came out, there was another commotion in the world. Many people from the superpowers were furious.

They did not dare fight against the Netherworld Devil Sect. Therefore, they could only pin their hope on Su Mo despite the very small chance that he could defeat Wu Sen.

In the Firmament World, hundreds of millions of martial artists were full of expectation. They were looking forward to the fight between Su Mo and Wu Sen.

This was the ultimate champions match in the Firmament World.

The winner would be an invincible existence in the Firmament World and the emperor of the world.

Countless martial artists left their families, sects, and cities to go to the Emperor Xuan Mountain Range.

...

Su Mo rapidly flew above the boundless East Sea. He had almost reached the sea area where the East Sea Dragon Palace was located.

It was dead calm on the way. Half a day later, he arrived at the East Sea Dragon Palace as expected.

Under the tranquil sea, his figure descended in front of the East Sea Dragon Palace. He saw that the palace was enveloped by a big formation.

Seeing this, he suddenly felt relieved. It seemed that the Flood-dragon tribe was safe and sound.

Su Mo's arrival had disturbed Dragon King of the East Sea. The king brought him into the palace personally.

Dragon Lord and Su Mo sat in the guest and host seats in the grand palace.

"Su Mo, this fight Wu Sen, aren't you being somewhat impulsive?" Dragon King of the East Sea was straightforward and directly asked Su Mo about the fight.

"Dragon Lord, you have heard about this already?" Su Mo was startled that Hai Mingjiang and Di Shi had spread the news so quickly.

He had just arrived at the East Sea, and the news had already reached the Dragon Palace.

He did not know that Hai Mingjiang and Di Shi had spread the news using Messaging Charms.

As the ultimate experts in the Firmament World, they had many acquaintances. Within the scope of Messaging Charm, they could spread the news to many people. Then, the others spread it again.

After a few cycles of this, it did not take them much time to spread the news across the world.
