In the courtyard of the stone house inside the Divine Map—
“Qingxuan, I’m going to cultivate in seclusion here for the next 15 days,” said Su Mo.
Hong Qingxuan smiled and replied, “Brother Su Mo, I’m here with you. This place is rich with Spiritual Qi and is fit for cultivating.”
Then, after a moment of thought, Hong Qingxuan asked, “Brother Su Mo, are you in great need of Spiritual Stones?”
She knew why Su Mo had even sold his King Cultivation Skill.
“Yes indeed!” Su Mo sighed. He could not imagine how many stones it would take to upgrade after reaching the Martial King Realm.
Hong Qingxuan kept silent for a moment. Then, she bit her red lip with her white teeth and a storage ring appeared on her hand.
“Brother Su Mo, there are 20,000,000 Medium Spiritual Stones inside this. Take it!” She handed the ring to Su Mo.
“20,000,000!”
Su Mo’s face told that he was shocked. How rich she was to be able to take out 20,000,000 Medium Spiritual Stones so casually!
Taking a deep breath, Su Mo did not take the storage ring. Instead, he shook his head and said, “Qingxuan, save these for yourself! After the auction, I’ll have enough stones. Besides, I have quite a few stones with me now.”
“Brother Su Mo, I have too many stones to spend. Take these since you need them!
“Brother Su Mo, you’re being too polite!”
Su Mo was moved. “This girl is too generous, she doesn’t even care about giving away 20,000,000 stones.”
However, Su Mo still just shook his head. He could not accept such a large gift.
But Hong Qingxuan did not leave the matter at that. She directly put the storage ring into Su Mo’s hand and smiled. “Consider this a loan. You can pay me back in the future.”
“Uh...” In his heart, Su Mo smiled bitterly. He knew that the “loan” was just a pretext, and this was a gift from her.
Su Mo sighed inwardly. He knew how hard it was to refuse her today. Nonetheless, he could not take them for free.
After a moment’s hesitation, Su Mo smiled and said, “Qingxuan, let’s use these stones to cultivate then!”
“Cultivate together?” Hong Qingxuan had confusion in her eyes.
“Follow me.” Su Mo chuckled and walked into the stone house with her.
Inside the stone house, the two youths sat face to face, cross-legged.
Su Mo waved his arm and took out 500,000 Medium Spiritual Stones from the ring she had given him.
The stones piled up like a hill and stuffed the room, almost burying the two youths.
“Brother Su Mo, what are you doing?” Hong Qingxuan asked in deeper confusion.
Right at the moment her voice fell, Su Mo whispered, “Crack!”
Suddenly, all the stones cracked at the same time, releasing infinite Spiritual Qi and forming into a spiritual mist.
“Uh!” Hong Qingxuan was dumbstruck.
“Qingxuan, snap out of your daze! Cultivate now.” Su Mo urged her and then started to absorb the Spiritual Qi.
Su Mo did not maximize his Devouring Martial Soul; instead, he exerted only 20 percent of its power. Otherwise, the devouring power would affect her.
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Hong Qingxuan became alert and hurriedly started to exert her Martial Soul to absorb the extremely dense Spiritual Qi around her.
Her rate of absorption was very fast and the Spiritual Qi rushed around her madly.
However, compared with Su Mo’s absorbing speed, the gap was like the distance between heaven and hell. Just 20 percent of Su Mo’s Martial Soul power made his rate of absorption five or six times faster than Hong Qingxuan’s.
Su Mo was not absorbing Spiritual Qi; he was devouring it.
“Qingxuan, release your Martial Soul and speed up.”
From Su Mo’s point of view, she was absorbing too slowly.
Upon hearing this, Hong Qingxuan immediately released her Martial Soul. A white lotus rose up from her.
The white lotus was pure, flawless, blooming, and stainless from this mortal life, releasing an elegant and divine aura.
Around the lotus was a golden halo, indicating it was a Rank 1 Heaven Class Martial Soul.
Su Mo was shocked when he saw the halo.
A Rank 1 Heaven Class Martial Soul!
He had speculated before that her Martial Soul might be Rank 9 Earth Class, but the truth surprised him!
After releasing her Martial Soul, the absorbing speed instantly boosted to double its previous rate. Although that was already formidable, Su Mo’s speed was way faster than hers.
Su Mo took a deep breath and slightly slowed down his rate of absorption. Otherwise, there would only be a little left for her to absorb because he would consume 70 percent of the Spiritual Qi in the house.
He then closed his eyes and started to run the Grand Chaos Five Elements Skill.
After 10 minutes, when the Spiritual Qi of 500,000 Medium Spiritual Stones was about to be consumed, Hong Qingxuan’s Qi swelled rapidly, and the small amount of Spiritual Qi that remained rushed toward her madly.
Jut at that moment, she broke through to Lv 3 Enlightenment Realm!
Su Mo was amazed. He had consumed more Spiritual Qi than her, yet he was still far from breaking through!
Su Mo could not help smiling bitterly. He felt helpless about the Spiritual Qi that his nine Spiritual Spirals needed to upgrade his cultivation.
“So fast!”
Hong Qingxuan opened her eyes, which glittered with glamorous light. She then asked in surprise, “Brother Su Mo, what happened? Why did the stones crack?”
Su Mo chuckled and said, “It’s because of my Martial Soul!”
“I see.” She already knew that Su Mo’s Martial Soul was able to absorb a martial artist’s Qi, but she did not expect that it was even able to crack Spiritual Stones.
Hong Qingxuan thought that Su Mo’s Martial Soul was terrifying. However, the good news was that his temperament was benign, instead of being as evil as his Martial Soul, and this made her feel comfortable to be with him.
“No wonder brother Su Mo can upgrade so fast. This Martial Soul is amazing!” Hong Qingxuan gave a wondrous smile.
Su Mo smiled and said, “So? Is your cultivation base steady enough to continue absorbing Spiritual Qi?”
Su Mo was worried about the instability of her cultivation base because she had upgraded two levels in just a few days.
“Yes, brother Su Mo. Let’s do this!” Hong Qingxuan was pleasantly surprised. Her cultivation had never before progressed so fast, hence she was very impatient to wait now.
“Haha! Good!” Su Mo nodded and took out another 500,000 Medium Spiritual Stones.
When they had consumed all of the Spiritual Qi from that batch of stones, Hong Qingxuan had reached Peak Lv 3 Enlightenment Realm, while Su Mo reached the late stage of Lv 4 Enlightenment Realm.
Then, Su Mo took out another 500,000 Medium Spiritual Stones.
