Warrior's Promise

Su Mo traveled under the surface of the earth at the speed of lightning.

That's right! He was going to flee!

He would not stupidly emerge after the battle with Zhan Luan ended and wait for the Netherworld Devil Sect to deal with him. As such, he did not hesitate to flee from the underground.

Su Mo was very fast, leaving hastily on his sword. His entire person was like a sharp sword that had emerged from its scabbard, piercing through the rocks deep under the earth as he fled.

However, while Su Mo was fast, he was still slightly slower than Yan Tai, who was in Lv 9 of the Martial Royal Realm. Yan Tai managed to catch up with him in a few moments.

Yan Tai was already almost at the peak of the world and his spiritual consciousness was very powerful. Even though Su Mo had disappeared beneath the earth, his consciousness quickly latched on to the direction Su Mo was headed for and he quickly went after him.

"You little beast, you can't escape from me!"

Yan Tai's screams shook the earth as if an earthquake had occurred.

There was a large crowd consisting of those from different factions following behind Yan Tai.

Sikong Yan and Wenren Tiandu were both in the crowd. However, their cultivation states were lower and were thus slower so they followed at the very back.

Su Mo's expression was frigid. He ignored Yan Tai and fled hastily.

The large crowd traveled through the underground, piercing many holes in the depths of the earth.

Moments later, Yan Tai had already caught up to within 3000 miles of Su Mo, and he lashed out.

"Get back here!"

Yan Tai bellowed. He opened his palms, forming a Dark Force palm that was about a foot wide and tried to capture Su Mo.

Boom!

The Dark Force palm was powerful and the ground before it could not withstand its power and was incinerated into nothingness within seconds.

"Oh no!" Su Mo sweated profusely. He did not hesitate to dodge.

"Rumble Rumble!"

The Dark Force palm struck past Su Mo, plunging through several thousand miles into the ground.

Su Mo was only able to dodge because Yan Tai was a distance away from him. Otherwise, with Yan Tai's strength, Su Mo would not have had enough time to dodge.

"Where are you going?" Yan Tai saw this and bellowed angrily, preparing to strike again.

Just then, Yan Tai was assaulted by a sense of danger and was startled.

Hua Taishan had caught up with him. He cracked down with his palm, slapping down furiously on Yan Tai.

Hua Taishan wanted to stop Yan Tai, or perhaps hold him off to give Su Mo a chance to escape.

Hua Taishan's abilities were on par with Yan Tai. Yan Tai did not dare to underestimate him, so he stopped when he was attacked and retaliated against the palm print with his fist.

Boom!

The palm print and the fist collided, causing a terrifying explosion as a blast swept through the area. A massive crater that measured a thousand miles in diameter appeared in the underground. The people at the back were all tossed into the air.

"Yan Tai, there's no chance for you!"

Hua Taishan yelled. He did not give Yan Tai any opportunity to attack Su Mo as he attacked Yan Tai unceasingly with palm prints.

"Damn it!"

Yan Tai roared in anger. He could still back away in the direction Su Mo went in if Hua Taishan attacked him from the back. However, Hua Taishan attacked him from the front, so he had to put all his efforts into defending himself.

"Rumble Rumble!"

A loud noise shook through the earth and soon, Hua Taishan and Yan Tai began to exchange blows.

Some of the people from the Netherworld Devil Sect passed the two from the sides and continued pursuing Su Mo.

However, the experts from the Emperor Xuan Palace and Sky-sea Pavilion all acted and tried to stop them.

A large chaotic battle started.

Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian was very powerful. He moved his hands endlessly, causing crowds of Netherworld Devil Sect expert to be tossed into the air.

Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian took the opportunity to fly up to the front and blocked the way.

"Those from the Netherworld Devil Sect, don't you dare to even think about hurting anyone from the Sky-sea Pavilion with me around!" He said frostily. His aura swirled around him fiercely, causing the underground to collapse.

"Charge!"

Loud shouts quaked the earth. The experts of the Netherworld Devil Sect were not afraid of Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian. They lashed out and started a vicious assault against the Deputy Pavilion Leader.

Other than Yan Tai, there were many other experts in the Martial Royal Realm among those from the Netherworld Devil Sect. They all joined forces and attacked the Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian.

"Rumble Rumble!"

There was a series of loud explosions and a terrifying blast destroyed all that was before it. The earth shook and collapsed and destruction reigned.

Those from the other factions watched the battle from afar. The Netherworld Devil Sect, the Emperor Xuan Palace and the Sky-sea Pavilion have finally started to fight!

The three factions had finally had a falling out because of Su Mo.

Just as the three factions were fighting, a figure chased after Su Mo hurriedly, avoiding the scene of the battle.

This person was none other than Dugu Yan of the Dugus.

The Emperor Xuan Palace, Sky-sea Pavilion, and Netherworld Devil Sect all did not know of the Dugus' goal.

The three factions which were involved in the battle did not notice Dugu Yan. His figure shimmered and he walked past them from the side, pursuing Su Mo in a hurry.

However, while those from the three warring factions did not notice Dugu Yan, someone else had.

He was Dragon Emperor Tuntian of the Flood-dragon tribe.

Dragon Emperor Tuntian saw Dugu Yan, and a glint appeared in his eyes. He yelled, "Dugu Yan, what are you trying to do?"

Dragon Emperor Tuntian's voice resonated loudly, drawing the attention of everyone present. Many discovered Dugu Yan.

"Dugu Yan, are you also trying to go against the Emperor Xuan Palace?" Hua Taishan roared angrily.

"Dugu Yan, come back!" Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian yelled furiously.

However, Dugu Yan ignored the rest. He had managed to bypass the warring crowd and was already several miles away in the distance.

"Damn it!"

Those from the Emperor Xuan Palace and Sky-sea Pavilion shouted angrily. They had not thought that Dugu Yan would also want to deal with Su Mo and had not guarded against it.

Watching as Dugu Yan flew further and further away, Hua Taishan and Deputy Pavilion Leader Qian grew anxious. They were prepared to abandon their opponents and chase after him.

Then, Dragon Emperor Tuntian acted.

Grrr!

The growl of a dragon shook the earth as Dragon Emperor Tuntian revealed his real body, turning into a golden flood dragon that was tens of thousands of feet long.

The golden flood dragon's power was impressive, its terrifying power could be felt, permeating in all directions and shaking the land around it.

The golden flood dragon's enormous head faced Dugu Yan and opened its large mouth.

"Rumble Rumble!"

A hundred feet whirlpool appeared in the dragon's mouth, from which, a terrifying suction force appeared.

The terrifying suction force extended for several miles and swallowed the heavens and the earth.

The earth sank and the void collapsed in a flash, flying into the golden flood dragon's mouth.

Dugu Yan's figure was also pulled into the vortex. He was unable to continue forward and flew backwards instead.
