Chapter 1807: Gao Haoran
Su Mo left Ancientspirit Galaxy. However, the news of the Sky Dragon Contest, the miracle he constructed in it and the Sorcerer Tribe trying to kill him by attacking the Nine Heavens God’s Death Array spread through Ancientspirit Galaxy like a tornado.
Numerous stars, superpowers and tribes were shocked by the news.
This time, the news shook the galaxy by a far greater extent then when Su Mo had killed a few hundred thousand Sorcerer Tribe members.
In an instant, Ancientspirit Galaxy was engulfed with shock.
Su Mo overcame a 3 rank cultivation difference to defeat Xue Juntian. Sweeping the top 5 godly talents and killing Wu Qiong had shocked many.
Numerous people who had bet on winners of the Sky Dragon Contest had lost a large sum of money, virtually turning bankrupt in a moment.
That was because those who had bet on Su Mo to win were few and far-between.
Everyone who placed bets in merchant houses had bet on the 5 top talents and hence lost everything they had.
However, there were also those who had profited greatly, like the Firmament Palace.
Granted, Emperor Shi had bet almost half of all of Firmament Palace’s wealth on Su Mo.
Half of Firmament Palace’s wealth was an incredible sum as it was what Su Mo had given to them after devouring the few Sorcerer Tribe cities.
A 20 to 1 bet ratio was an incredible sum.
Once they had obtained the news of the outcome of the Sky Dragon Contest, Emperor Shi and the top martial artists of Firmament Palace had gone mad from happiness.
However, they did not exaggerate their wealth and gathered all their bets and winnings in a low-key manner.
Luckily, they had dispersed their bets on a few merchant houses, or they might not have been able to get their winnings.
Once they had retrieved their winnings, the Firmament Palace immediately closed up and distributed the wealth to the few hundred thousand disciples.
…
In just one day, Su Mo and Li Tongtian arrived at Myriad World Mountain and walked into respective wormholes.
“Su Mo, I will see you around!”
Li Tongtian did not delay in Myriad World Mountain and bade farewell to Su Mo before he headed to another wormhole.
Su Mo observed that the wormhole that Li Tongtian had entered was a galaxy called Black Death Galaxy.
With a heavy sigh, Su Mo headed towards Merit Hall in Myriad World Mountain.
There were a few people in Myriad World Mountain and Su Mo would occasionally bump into a few disciples.
Most disciples of Myriad World Mountain, whether they be Famous Disciples or Official Disciples, had superpowers that they belonged to and hence no one stayed for long in Myriad World Mountain.
They would only arrive there for matters that they needed to tend to.
Su Mo wasn’t very familiar with Myriad World Mountain. Was there a sect leader? Who was in charge of things? Su Mo didn’t know the answer to any of these questions.
Very quickly, Su Mo arrived at Merit Hall. As usual, it was the fierce-looking Senior Tu Fu who was sitting behind the stone stage.
However, at that moment, there was another young man in Merit Hall aside from Tu Fu.
This man was handsome and his eyes were as sharp as blades. Looking to be roughly 20 years old, he was wearing a white shirt and had a mysterious aura around him.
He had a high cultivation rank and appeared to be a Martial Sage.
However, at that point, the young man’s face was pale and his aura fluctuated around him frequently, showing that he had been heavily injured.
“Gao Haoran, you said you failed?” Tu Fu stared at the white shirt young man and did not pay attention to Su Mo, who had just entered the hall.
“Senior Tu Fu, not only were there members form Levitation Galaxy, there were also Demons from the Demon Kingdom Galaxy and two True Dragons of the Archosaur Galaxy in addition to the monks of Ah Mi Galaxy, Sun Moon Tribe members of the Mingxu Galaxy and others from other superpowers in the contest. I am too weak alone but I tried my best!” The white-shirted young man admitted in a deep voice.
It wasn’t that he was too weak for the mission, but he had not expected so many people to fight with him.
As such, this had caused him to fail the mission and almost die in the process.
Upon hearing this, Tu Fu fell silent before he glanced at Su Mo and sighed at the young man, “Wait for a while over there!”
With that, he looked at Su Mo and smiled widely, “Haha, Su Mo, have you completed your mission?”
Previously, Jiang Shenye had rushed over to seek help and since Su Mo had returned, it must have meant that he had completed his mission.
“Yes, I have completed it!” Su Mo nodded his head.
“Not bad, not bad! To win the Sky Dragon Contest with only a Rank 7 Martial Honorable Realm. Not to mention the younger generation of Ancientspirit Galaxy, you must be the most talented disciple of Myriad World Mountain!” Tu Fu praised Su Mo.
If Su Mo was a Sage-to-be or a Rank 9 Martial Honorable, his achievements would be within logic.
Yet, Su Mo had showed how exceptional he was as just a Rank 7 Martial Honorable.
The pale-faced white-shirted young man Gao Haoran couldn’t help surveying Su Mo in disgust after hearing Tu Fu’s words.
Ancientspirit Galaxy?
What sort of a place was that?
It is just a small galaxy in the whole universe.
Even if he was unrivalled in the younger generation of Ancientspirit Galaxy, that was nothing in the grand scheme of events.
“Senior Tu Fu, I was lucky this time!” Su Mo smiled. Granted, he did win the Sky Dragon Contest with his strength.
However, he had to admit that he was lucky along the way.
Otherwise, if his luck was bad and he had met someone who was 2 realms higher than him, he would have definitely lost.
“Luck is also a part of strength!”
Tu Fu chuckled before he flipped his palm and said, “Hand me the Heaven and Earth Qi.”
Su Mo flipped over his palm and retrieved the jade bottle that held the Heaven and Earth Qi.
Once he had handed the jade bottle over to Tu Fu, Tu Fu kept it safely with him.
“Heaven and Earth Qi?”
Gao Haoran’s eyes brightened as he stared intently at the jade bottle, sharp rays of light shooting out of them.
As soon as Tu Fu took the jade bottle, he recorded it in a special jade tablet before he waved his hand and said, “Su Mo, go and obtain your reward!”
Su Mo thanked Tu Fu before he left Merit Hall and walked towards Grace Hall.
Behind him, Gao Haoran stared carefully at Su Mo’s back as his face darkened.
Su Mo was silent as he walked towards Grace Hall. What reward should he request?
Ancient Dream Grass?
Would the Myriad World Mountain have it?
An item to raise his cultivation rank? Or should he request a weapon to increase his fighting strength with?
Su Mo didn’t need any of these.
News on the Gate of Reincarnation?
Su Mo had inquired about that previously. The Gate of Reincarnation was a Fighting Soul of Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign, there was no way for Su Mo to find it.
It seemed like there was nothing he needed.
After a long while of thinking, Su Mo walked towards Grace Hall. The scene in front of him changed and he arrived at a wide, empty space.
Shoosh!
Bright light flashed in front of him and the puppet man who was made entirely of stones appeared in front of Su Mo.
“Su Mo, you have completed the mission to obtain the Heaven and Earth Qi. Choose from any category of treasures, martial skills, news, weapons or valuables!”
The puppet stared at Su Mo and spoke out loud.
