The bandit leader was startled by Su Mo's strength.

He was very clear about his own strength. An ordinary martial artist in the Lv 5 Qi Cultivation Realm was no match for him.

But now, a martial artist in the Lv3 Qi Cultivation Realm could make him take three steps back. How could he not be surprised?

“Ah!”

While the bandit leader was in a daze, two more shouts sounded.

Su Mo's sword was as fast as lightning and as smooth as wind. Wherever sword Qi passed by, no one could stop it.

In the blink of an eye, three more bandits were killed.

There were originally 20 bandits in this group, but Su Mo had killed nine of them. Now, three more had died, so there were only eight bandits left.

“Mati!”

Su Mo shouted and moved like a ghost. With a flash of sword light, two more bandits were cut into two at the waist. Blood mixed with internal organs spilled all over the ground.

“Come quickly! Kill her! C'mon fast! “

The bandit leader shouted and attacked Su Mo again with his giant war sword.

However, this time, Su Mo did not fight directly with him. Instead, he used his agile body movements to pass through the crowd. Sharp sword light flashed through from time to time, and the bandits fell down one after another.

“!”

The bandit leader roared furiously and continued slashing with his war sword, but he could not even touch a single hair on Su Mo's body.

Su Mo had developed Shadow Steps Lower Lv 3 body movement, which increased his speed by several times. Even though he was only at the Beginner Realm of the Shadow Steps, as a cultivation skill of Lv3, even though it was only at the Beginner Realm, it was still much faster than the bandit leader.

Except for the bandit leader, the other bandits were only at Lv 3 or Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm. Very few of them could block Su Mo's sword.

Even if they could block Su Mo's first move, they couldn't block his second move.

Su Mo's sword Qi flashed, and he killed one with every step he took.

Soon, the bandit leader became a general without an army, and all of his men were killed.

Even if there were some who wanted to escape, they would not be able to take more than a few steps before they were instantly captured and killed with a single slash.

“Nak, you have killed so many people from the Bloody Blade Stockade. We won't let you go!”

The bandit leader wanted to leave after saying those words. He knew that the other party was invincible just by relying on this movement technique alone.

It would be difficult for him to kill Su Mo!

“Where did you go?”

Su Mo ran forward and stopped the bandit leader.

“Nak, don't go too far! Even though I cannot kill you, you cannot kill me either. “

The bandit leader shouted.

“Truly? I've said it before, none of you will be alive today! “

Su Mo sneered as if he did not care about the bandit leader at all, which infuriated the bandit leader.

“Brat, you seek death! Today, I will tell you how strong I am. “

The bandit leader was furious. With a roar, a yellow light shone from his back as his Martial Spirit rose.

His Martial Spirit was a three meter tall ferocious bear.

After activating his Martial Soul, the strength of that bandit leader increased by at least a few times. He stepped forward and raised his shiny sword up high, bringing a strong wind with him as he slashed at Su Mo's face.

This time, Su Mo did not dodge. Instead, he stood there quietly.

The bandit leader was very happy to see Su Mo like this. He increased his strength to its peak, determined to injure Su Mo with a single blow.

Su Mo's lips curled up into a cold smile, and he sheathed his long sword with a clang as the bandit leader slashed down.

This action instantly made the bandit leader stunned.

“Is this brat stupid?”

However, he was more surprised. Now that his opponent had sheathed his weapon, it was his chance to kill him with a single blow.

Just as the bandit leader's sword was about to reach Su Mo, a bright light flashed in Su Mo's hand, and a long sword appeared.

This sword was the Spirit Killing Sword, the Lv 4 Medium Heavenly Weapon.

Su Mo held the Spirit Killing Sword and slashed the rapidly expanding sword in front of him.

Clangs! Engaged!

The sword and sword collided, and the bandit leader's sword broke. Then, the Spirit Killing Sword continued to slash at the bandit leader's neck like lightning. Blood gushed out, and his head flew high.

Phew!

After killing all the bandits, Su Mo finally let out a long sigh.

Looking at the long sword in his hand, Su Mo smiled. The Medium Lv 4 is awesome.

There was a huge gap between each weapon level, not to mention the bandit leader's sword, which was only an ordinary Mortal Lv 1 Weapon.

They weren't at all on the same level, so it made sense that he could break the bandit leader's sword with a single blow.

Facing such trash, Su Mo would not be foolish enough to fight him fairly.

After killing all the bandits, Su Mo looked at the women who had been robbed. They were still in shock, and their eyes were dull.

“Well, all the bandits have been killed. You're free!”

Su Mo stepped forward and woke them up.

“Thank you, benefactor!”

All the women kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to Su Mo.

“Wake up, all of you! It's not safe here. Go back to the village first! “

Su Mo waved his hand and gestured for them to wake up. Even though their village was destroyed, he could only let them return first.

Fortunately, there were many bandit war horses, so they could immediately ride them back.

“Belcome, I will never forget your kindness today. Please tell me your name, and I will remember it.”

At this moment, a girl in teal clothes walked towards Su Mo shyly, slightly pursed her red lips, and said softly.

This teal-clad girl was the girl that the bandit leader coveted and wanted to present to the head of the Bloody Blade Stockade when they returned.

The girl's skin was as white as snow, and she was graceful. His eyes were like clear springs, and he had a light Qi. Even though she was wearing rough linen clothes, it could not hide her graceful and noble temperament.

The girl was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world. Her beauty made people feel inferior and afraid to defile her.

Only then did Su Mo notice that there was such an amazing beauty among the group of women.

He could only sigh that such a beauty could be bred in a small village!

In terms of appearance, this girl was even better than Luo Huan, the Pavilion Leader of the Purple Gold Pavilion. However, compared to Luo Huan's peerless charm, the girl was still a little immature.

“My name is Su Mo. You can go back first! I'll go to your village later to help you bury your people. “

Su Mo smiled and immediately led a warhorse to the girl.

“OK!” The girl nodded slightly.

After everyone left, Su Mo looked at the corpse on the ground, his eyes shining brightly.

With so much blood essence, breaking through should not be a problem!

Su Mo did not dare to delay. He rushed over, sat down cross-legged, and released his Devouring Martial Soul.

The longer it was delayed, the more blood and Qi would be lost from these people. Furthermore, as time passed, their martial spirit would also disappear. If that was the case, it would be a huge loss!

Su Mo exerted his Devouring Martial Soul with all his might. Suddenly, all kinds of Martial Souls, mixed with the Blood Qi of the bandits, gathered towards Su Mo.

Most of the Martial Soul Bandits were at Rank 2 or Rank 3 of the Human Class. After Su Mo devoured it, his Martial Soul did not react at all.

However, after a large amount of Blood Qi was eaten, it turned into pure energy and entered Su Mo's body.

Su Mo's aura skyrocketed!

The explosion!

In just a moment, Su Mo's cultivation broke through the bottleneck of the Lv 3 Qi Cultivation Realm and entered Lv 4.

However, Blood Qi was huge. After Su Mo broke through the world, his cultivation continued to increase.

Cultivation Qi Lv 4 Early!

Qi disciple of the fourth level of the intermediate level!

The final stage of the fourth level of Disciple Qi!

Peak Realm Cultivation Qi Lv 4!

Finally, after Su Mo devoured everyone's Qi, his cultivation stopped at the Peak Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm. He was only a step away from the Lv 5 Qi Cultivation Realm.

He's not disappointed. He was satisfied that his cultivation had increased by one level.

“If I continue to kill and plunder the Blood Qi and Martial Soul of others, won't my cultivation soar like a rocket?”

Su Mo thought to himself with a burning desire.

However, he immediately shook his head. If he continued like this, even though his strength could increase rapidly, he would probably lose his nature and become a bloodthirsty demon.

Su Mo had always been a person who could tell the difference between kindness and hatred. He will show no mercy to his enemies or villains.

However, if he were to slaughter innocent people, he would be no different from these bandits.
