Chapter 535: Good Luck and Doomed Fate
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Beside the bank of a clear pond on the Dark Sky Peak sat an extremely beautiful woman in white, elegant clothes. She was just like an angel with her long hair cascading down to the grass.
Alongside the woman stood a Spiritual Crane. The pond, the woman, and the crane made the scene look like a beautiful painting.
This woman was the peak master of the Dark Sky Peak, the Fairy of the Ninth Heaven, also known as the most beautiful woman of the East Continent, Qian Xunyue.
She looked over at the Towering Sky Peak and then shook her head slightly.
Just at that moment, an exceedingly beautiful girl walked over.
It was Hong Qingxuan.
“Xuan’er, why didn’t you listen to my words?” A gentle voice came from Qian Xunyue’s mouth.
“What’s that?” Hong Qingxuan stepped forth and asked in confusion.
“I told you to keep your distance from Su Mo.” Qian Xunyue shook her head and sighed.
“But… it was him that helped me with my upsurge in cultivation,” Hong Qingxuan said in a low voice, pouting.
Upon hearing this, Qian Xunyue turned her head to the girl and raised her eyebrows.
How could she not tell that Hong Qingxuan was lost in love with Su Mo!
Ever since ancient times, love had ruined countless women. A woman had to abandon all human affections to reach her highest possible accomplishments in martial arts—this was what Qian Xunyue had adhered to all her life.
“He will bring misfortune to you!” Qian Xunyue said with a sigh.
Hong Qingxuan shook her head and replied, chuckling, “How can that be? I know brother Su Mo well. He will never hurt me.”
“He won’t hurt you, but you will die because of him!”
Qian Xunyue became serious and spoke after thinking for a while. “That man has not only incredibly good luck, but also unseen misfortunes. He will be doomed because of a slight mistake. Don’t blame me for not warning you!”
“Uh!” Hong Qingxuan was stunned and she bit her lip.
Her master had a profound cultivation; moreover, she was proficient in soothsaying.
If these words had come from anyone else, Hong Qingxuan would never buy into them.
However, it was her master who had said all of that.
For that little while, Hong Qingxuan was pained and did not know what to do!
“Besides, he doesn’t deserve you. But, it’s up to you to mull it over!”
Qian Xunyue did not force Hong Qingxuan because it was useless to force someone on an issue of love.
Of course, she could offer Hong Qingxuan some appropriate help.
Qian Xunyue started to ponder.
…
Su Mo was healing himself in his tower.
He was injured quite badly, as if Hou Yuan’s voice had been specifically targeted at him and cracked his internal organs.
Time passed slowly during his treatment.
Su Mo had been secluded for 15 days and his injuries had nearly recovered.
“Alas! I just wasted another 15 days!” Su Mo sighed helplessly.
He then left to look for some fine wood at the foot of the Towering Sky Peak to repair his tower.
After having repaired his tower, Su Mo started to devour Spiritual Stones again.
The Spiritual Qi of a million Spiritual Stones had been wasted because of Hou Yuan, and he had only consumed 10 percent of it.
Once again, he took out a million Medium Spiritual Stones and cracked them all. The dense Spiritual Qi shrouded him.
Su Mo’s cultivation then started to surge.
Middle Lv 5 Enlightenment Realm!
Late Lv 5 Enlightenment Realm!
Peak Lv 5 Enlightenment Realm!
In a short while, he had almost consumed all of the Spiritual Qi.
“Whoosh!”
He again took out 500,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, and new waves of Spiritual Qi permeated madly, while the nine Spiritual Spirals inside his body trembled continuously.
After five minutes, Su Mo had not broken through before the Spiritual Qi ran out.
“It’s so close!” Su Mo gnashed his teeth and took out 200,000 more Medium Spiritual Stones.
“Rumble!”
As Su Mo’s cultivation finally upgraded, his aura promptly surged and the residual Spiritual Qi surrounding him rushed into his body.
The nine Spiritual Spirals and his aura then swelled madly.
In a few seconds, everything became silent and Su Mo’s aura shrank to a normal level.
“Lv 6 Enlightenment Realm. I should be stronger than a normal Peak Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm martial artist now.”
Su Mo clenched his fists and felt the power surge up inside his body.
Although his strength might have been among the top ranks of the Outer Disciples now, he still could not compare to those super Outer Disciples.
“First, I will improve my physical strength and then start to practice craftsmanship.”
He started to devour Spiritual Stones again. Numerous golden shadows of the Archean Dragonesque Elephant kept flashing on his body.
He consumed 2,000,000 Medium Spiritual Stones to improve his physical strength to rival that of a Peak Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm martial artist.
The huge consumption made Su Mo feel helpless.
He then took out the crafting furnace.
The crafting furnace looked like a pill-refining furnace. It was crimson-colored, three feet tall, and elliptical. Two air vents were situated on top of it.
Moreover, there were many other holes in the furnace, which were designed to dissipate heat and for willpower to enter the furnace.
Su Mo opened the furnace lid, put in the Dark Steel and Silver-essence Sand according to correct proportions, and closed the lid.
He then operated the Sky-burning Fire Skill, turning his Vital Spirit red suddenly.
Subsequently, he placed his palm on one of the air vents and sent his Vital Spirit into the furnace.
The Vital Spirit turned into a strong flame as soon as it entered the air vent. The flame calcined the Dark Steel and the Silver-essence Sand at a high temperature.
The air vent could turn any Vital Spirit into flames, except for the water-property type.
Of course, the fire-property Vital Spirit was more suitable for crafting and had a higher chance of success. Therefore, Su Mo changed his Five Elements Vital Spirit into solely Lie Huo Vital Spirit.
The scale and power of the flames were completely controlled by the willpower of a craftsman.
Time passed by slowly. During the crafting, Su Mo could clearly see the situation inside the furnace by using his willpower through the holes.
After five minutes, the Dark Steel and the Silver-essence Sand melted together into a mass of black molten iron.
The next step was to smelt the impurities of the molten iron.
10 minutes later, Su Mo had removed 99 percent of the impurities.
