Dreamcloud Manor, all the geniuses who participated in the banquet have all disperesed and left.

In one of the waterside pavilion, Su Mo, the Third Prince Jia Yuanji, deadly swordsman Han Yijian and Rakshasa She-devil Honglian sat together.

“Su Mo, your sword will has reached a later order, together with your strong physical strength, your combined strength is comparable to me. For this round of List of Top 100 Talents, the few of us would definitely advance to the Top 40!”

Jia Yuanji said with a grin.

Su Mo’s strength was finally recognized by Jia Yuanji, and that’s why Jia Yuanji had asked Su Mo to stay for one more night, a few people exchanging their feelings.

After all, the four of them have the higher strength of their generation, all the other geniuses coud not even compare. They could also communicate equally.

Su Mo nodded his head and said, “I will try my best. On how high I would rank in the List of Top 100 Talents, I will not know!”

Han Yijian said, “Su Mo, Hong Domain never had a lack of geniuses, other than you, there are others who have awaken their martial will. Amongst the Top 20, those that had awaken their martial will are no less than five.”

“Oh? So many people have awaken their martial will!”

Su Mo was shocked, he thought he was the only who who had awaken his martial will.

Han Yijian said solemnly, “The third on the List of Top 100 is Wu Sheng, cultivated the Lifeless Swordplay, as for the remaining sword will, he has reached a stage of the Grand Completion. His strength is pretty scary and many Lv 7 True Spirit Realm senior experts are unable to handle one stroke from him.”

“And there are few other geniuses who are ranked pretty high, just like number five Hong Qingtian, number six Prince of the North. Despite not being as strong as Wu Sheng, they can still compare with him!”

Su Mo’s face became heavy, on the List of Top 100 Talents, ranking number three ‘Wu Sheng’, number four ‘Prince of Flaming Cloud’, both possessed the strength of a split-second killing Lv 7 True Spirit Realm martial artist. This type of horrifying combat strength, would bring about so much more stress.

“Haha!”

Honglian grinned and said, “I say, are you thinking a little too much, does not matter if it is Wu Sheng or Prince of the North, they are people we are not able to win. Their strengths have long surpassed our imagination. What we want to achieve is a small step, entering the Top 40.”

“Haha! What Honglian said is right, we have thought a little too much!”

Jia Yuanji laughd loudly and said to Su Mo, “Su Mo, it is not that I have no ambition, but in the Great Hong Empire, there are so many geniuses that it is indeed scary!”

While speaking, Jia Yuanji sighed and said, “In fact, our talents are not much worse than theirs. However, their background is strong and have received far more training than us, making it an innate advantaged, and we cannot force it!”

Su Mo listened, but shook his head and said, “I do not think so!”

“Oh? Su Mo, what do you think?”

The three of them were surprised, and looked curiously at Su Mo.

Su Mo said in a low voice, “A strong background means that they started slightly ahead of us. However, with our martial art, as for who can go higher and further, it all depends on your perseverance and talent!”

“Additionally, according to some, perseverance might be stronger than talent.”

“Perseverance?”

The three of them heard Su Mo’s words and were secretly shaking their head. Perseverance is certainly important, however if there are no talents or resources, no matter how strong the perseverance is, it is also all in vain!

Night, bright moon with little stars.

Four people were sitting in a waterside pavillion, talking about their martial arts experiences, personal stories, chatted about the world elites, late into the night.

In the room, Su Mo sat cross-legged and began cultivating.

Redirecting the Nirvana Cultivation Method, his Genuine Vitality in his elixir field was moving throughout Su Mo’s body.

Nirvana Cultivation Method had seven level, Su Mo had only been able to cultivate the first level. However, he had now reached the peak of the first level. He would need at most 2 more days to breakthough to the second level.

Nirvana Cultivation Method’s first three levels were only the basic stages. Only by cultivating the fourth level, would you be able to fully unleash the powerful strength of this cultivation skill.

One night without any words, at the dawn of the next morning, Su Mo said goodbye to Jia Yuanji and others, and left the Dreamcloud Manor.

After leaving Topsun City, Su Mo, Su Mo rose up into the sky and flew towards the north.

Su Mo had no specific destination in mind, as long as he was heading towards the direction of the Great Hong Empire it would be ok. While on the road, he could practice.

As long as he could reach the Holy City of Top 100 before the Top-100-talent competition begins.

Ocassionaly when crossing the mountain ranges, Su Mo would kill some to hone his swordsmanship.

Three moves of the Wuji swordsmanship, there was nothing fancy about it. It showed a strong edge with ultimate attack power.

On this day, the sun was shinning, Su Mo have arrived at Brightsun Country.

Brightsun Country was one of Hong Domain 29 small countries, and after Brightsun Country, it is Hong Domain’s biggest country, the Great Hong Empire.

“Eh?”

When he flew over this small town, Su Mo suddenly stopped.

This small town was a desolate scene, overcast wind blew over it, and there was absolutely no breath of life in it. Instead it was filled with a strong atmosphere of death.

“What happened?”

Su Mo was confused, and immediately descended from the clouds.

He was bold and fearless, and was ready to check out the place.

When Su Mo arrived in the town, he was shocked by the sight of the town.

They were corpses all over the town, on the streets, in the shops, in front of the restaurants. It was corpses everywhere.

Seeing so many corpses was not the most shocking thing to Su Mo. The most shocking thing was that the corpses were all mummies, left with nothing but bones and skins, with no trace of blood or flesh. A truly horrific sight.

Apparently, the blood of these people was sucked dry.

Su Mo looked at the mummies that were all over the floor, and it gave him an illusion, it was almost as if he had done it himself.

“Could this be a demonic beast?”

As soon as the idea popped up, Su Mo immediately denied it.

Some demonic beast must have eaten these people directly, and not only just sucked their blood.

Su Mo looked at the bodies and found that some of the corpses’ neck had been gnawed open by teeth. Some even had their heads pierced by five fingers.

Whether it was gnawing marks or finger marks, one thing was for sure, these people were murdered by human martial artist.

“Who would be so cruel? I can’t believe that anyone would directly suck someone else’s blood.”

Su Mo frowned, the man must be extremely heartless and cruel and his actions are beyond description.

Although he would devour the blood of others, but that was the nature of his Martial Soul. Su Mo would never devour innocent people.

Who he devoured was either a demonic beast or an enemy.

But here, a whole town was slaughtered, regardless of man or woman, young or old, no one was spared. One could see that the ruthlessness of this person.

After a short while, Su Mo’s face darkened as he walked around the town, trying to see if there were any clues.

“Jie Jie, someone has delivered himself to death!”

Suddenly, a shrill laugh rang behind Su Mo.
