Combatant

In a valley on Qingyuan Island.
At this moment, the valley was in disarray, with broken limbs scattered all over the ground.
The bodies of dozens of Iron-Toothed Wolves had withered like rotten wood.
Next to the corpse, a young man in teal clothes sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. He had a handsome face with starry eyebrows and sharp eyes.
That young man was Su Mo.
After a while, Su Mo opened his eyes and spat out a turbid Qi.
The blood essence of the dozens of Iron Tooth Wolves had greatly increased his cultivation, and he was nearing the middle stage of the Lv9 Qi Cultivation Realm.
The only unfortunate thing was that his Devouring Martial Spirit did not advance after devouring so many Beast Souls and Martial Souls.
This made Su Mo secretly anxious. Although his current strength was extremely strong amongst the new disciples, if he was unable to raise his Martial Soul, his cultivation would become even slower, and he would soon be defeated by others.
Moreover, there were so many senior disciples on Gale Island, whose cultivation and strength could not compare to new disciples. If his strength could not increase quickly, how could he compete with those people?
Although his Martial Soul could devour blood essence, he was unable to increase his cultivation by devouring it the entire time.
He had discovered that although it quickly increased its cultivation by devouring blood essence, it also had some weaknesses.
Every time he devoured a large amount of blood essence, the original Qi in his body would become heterogeneous, and the more he devoured it, the worse the situation would be. In the long run, it would definitely affect his foundation.
Therefore, after devouring a large amount of blood essence, Su Mo needed time to consolidate his cultivation and condense the original Qi to strengthen his foundation.
After a while, Su Mo glanced at the messy valley and got up to leave.
As for the three Jadeglow Herbs, Su Mo was in no hurry to use them. His main priority now was to devour continuously.
When his cultivation reached the Peak of Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm or even half a step into the Spiritual Martial Realm, the three Jadeglow Medicines might help him break through the realms.
In the forest, Su Mo was like a peerless, unstoppable God of Slaughter. All the demonic beasts he encountered, regardless of their level, died tragically.
Of course, all the demonic beasts he killed were Lv 1, and so far no Lv 2 demonic beasts had appeared.
When Su Mo killed dozens of demonic beasts and it was getting dark, he accidentally met with Li Feng.
At this moment, Li Feng's Qi was weak, his face was pale, his clothes were torn apart, and his body was covered in blood.
Li Feng ran through the forest, spewing out a large mouthful of blood. Obviously, he's hurt bad.
“Su Mo, why are you here?”
Li Feng stopped his steps and asked weakly upon seeing Su Mo.
“Li Feng, how did you suffer such a heavy wound?”
Su Mo walked towards Li Feng and asked in confusion. With Li Feng's strength, some new disciples could hurt him. Did he meet the demon beast Lv 2?
“Su Mo, I ..!”
Just as Li Feng was about to reply, his expression changed, and he vomited another mouthful of blood.
Immediately after, Li Feng's body gently fell to the ground. He really fainted.
“This ..!”
Su Mo was surprised. He rushed forward to check and found that Li Feng's injuries were very serious.
Three of his ribs were broken, and five of his innards and six intestines were seriously injured. If he does not receive treatment, he may not live more than two days.
Su Mo sighed. Ever since he met them, he could not sit down and do nothing.
Although Li Feng was arrogant, he was not a bad person and did not hold any grudges against Su Mo.
Su Mo helped Li Feng up and led him to a nearby cave.
The demon beasts in this cave had been killed by Su Mo, so it was very safe here.
Su Mo placed Li Feng on the stone wall of the cave and gave him a healing potion. He also infused genuine Qi into Li Feng's body to refine the potion and stabilize the wound.
After refining the elixir, Li Feng still did not show any signs of waking up. Su Mo had to continue infusing the original Qi to heal him.
This process went on all night.
When the next day broke apart and Su Mo's original Qi was depleted for the third time, Li Feng finally woke up.
“Su Mo, thank you for saving me!”
During this period, Li Feng had always regarded Su Mo as his competitor, but he did not expect Su Mo to save him when he was seriously injured.
“We are all brothers in the same sect, so you don't have to thank me!”
Su Mo shook his head and asked, “How could you be injured so badly? Who did this to you? “
Su Mo carefully examined Li Feng's injuries and ruled out the possibility of a demonic beast. Li Feng's injury was clearly caused by a martial artist.
“That Huang Yunqing. He hurt me seriously!”
Li Feng gnashed his teeth and said with anger flaring in his eyes.
“Who is Huang Yunqing?”
Su Mo sat down cross-legged to recover his original Qi and asked in confusion.
“Huang Yunqing is one of the eight experts in the Spiritual Martial Realm among the new disciples. Although his Martial Soul was only at Rank 7 of the Human Class, which was not as good as the five geniuses, he had also reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. He is very strong,” said Li Feng.
“Why did he attack you? Does he want to steal your Demon Core?” Su Mo asked again.
“Ya!”
Li Feng nodded and said, “However, he did not steal the Demon Core for himself.”
“Not for himself?” Su Mo was confused. If he hadn't stolen the Demon Core for himself, who else could he have done it for?
“Su Mo, you still don't know the current situation!”
Li Feng shook his head and said, “New disciples have been divided into camps. Among the top five geniuses, except for the mysterious Luo Qianfan, the other four geniuses had each conquered and bound many people. They gathered Demon Core for them.”
“They have a lot of people and can sweep everything and rob everywhere. No one can stop them. Huang Yunqing was now in Wu Kui's camp. “
Su Mo frowned. He had not expected those four geniuses to have such a trick.
If so, those four geniuses would obtain the Demon Core at a frightening speed.
If so, it would be very difficult for Su Mo to enter the top five, let alone the first champion.
However, what puzzled Su Mo was that an expert in the Spiritual Martial Realm like Huang Yunqing was willing to work for Wu Kui.
Among the 500 new disciples, only eight had reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. It could be said that with Huang Yunqing's strength, he could easily enter the top 10.
What price did Wu Kui have to pay to win Huang Yunqing?
“How are you doing now?”
After a while, Su Mo asked.
Li Feng looked glum and did not have high spirits before. He shook his head and said, “My injuries are too serious. I can't recover in a short time! I'm ready to give up. “
Su Mo sighed. Li Feng was telling the truth. He predicted that he would need at least a month to fully recover from his injury.
“Then, you can ask the Sect Elders to pick you up!”
After a while, Su Mo recovered most of his original Qi. He stood up and looked outside the cave. His eyes flashed and he said, “Don't worry. I'll avenge you.”
Li Feng was astonished and then asked in surprise, “Su Mo, are you going to find them?”
Li Feng felt ridiculous. The four geniuses were extremely strong and had many people. Wouldn't it be suicide to find them?
“What do you think?”
Su Mo narrowed his eyes and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Su Mo did not want to avenge Li Feng. His relationship with Li Feng was not that good.
He only wanted to obtain the Demon Core, which was much faster than hunting by himself.
As long as he obtained enough Demon Core, he could obtain first place in this trial.300 contribution points was very tempting.
As for devouring the blood essence of demonic beasts, he would have plenty of time to hunt them after the trial.
Moreover, if one was foolish enough to prosecute death, the blood essence of a martial artist would be the same for him.
“Yeah, I'm leaving. Careful!”
Su Mo said nothing more and walked out of the cave.
