“Okay, I’ll give you a fistplay then!” Huangfu Qing nodded and passed another jade note to Su Mo, “I know that you’ve trained your physical strength as well, so I’ll give you this ‘Black Dragon Fist’ which is known for its raw power!”

“Black Dragon Fist?” Su Mo was surprised by its incredible name.

“Although Black Dragon Fist is only at Medium Lv 6, its power is comparable to an Upper Lv 6 martial arts technique. It’s very suitable for a martial artist like you with both the power of cultivation and physical strength!” Huangfu Qing said with a smile.

“Thank you, Master!” Su Mo didn’t wait to express his gratitude. Huangfu Qing was truly selfless to his disciples for freely giving out two Lv 6 martial art skills, which were considered extremely valuable to others.

“Don’t mention it! You’re my disciple after all!” Huangfu Qing nodded and continued, “By the way, Su Mo, I can tell that your Body Refining Skill is pretty extraordinary, and it seems to imitate the body cultivation technique of demonic beasts. I wonder if you can share it with me?”

At his words, Su Mo’s eyes flashed unnoticeably. Huangfu Qing wants the Archean Dragonesque Elephant Skill?

However, the Archean Dragonesque Elephant Skill was a Lv 9 cultivation skill and one of the best secret skills of Firmament Palace. Su Mo did not want to give it to Huangfu Qing because it was too precious. Most importantly, he had only joined Towering Sky Peak recently, so he had yet to establish a genuine master-disciple relationship with him.

Su Mo frowned slightly and quickly came up with a response. He clasped his fists at Huangfu Qing and replied,”Master, the Body Refining Skill that I’m cultivating is ‘Elephant’s Strength Skill’. It is indeed pretty exceptional!”

Su Mo then etched Elephant’s Strength Skill onto an empty jade note and passed it to Huangfu Qing.

“Elephant’s Strength Skill?”

Huangfu Qing creased his brows, but it quickly turned into a smile as he accepted the jade note and said, “Ok, I’ll study it when I’m free.”

A brief silence later, Huangfu Qing added, “Su Mo, your talent is extraordinary. You could enter the List of Top 1,000 Talents in East Continent in five years and the List of Top 10,000 Continental Talents in 10. Make this your goal and don’t slack off!”

“Yes, Master! I’ll remember your words!” Su Mo bowed at him and said, “Master, I’ll excuse myself if you have nothing else for me!”

“Wait!” Huangfu Qing waved his hand and added, “I have a final gift for you.”

Huangfu Qing flipped his palm to reveal a light gold token.

“This is your Master’s Heavenly Token, I’ll gift it to you now!” Huangfu Qing smiled and said.

“A Heavenly Token!” Su Mo was astonished that Huangfu Qing would give him such an important item.

A Heavenly Token was not something to be taken lightly. Back then, Hong Qingxuan, Wu Sheng, and he could only successfully get to Dark Domain from Hong Domain thanks to the Heavenly Token that belonged to Fairy of the Ninth Heaven.

Su Mo was informed by Hong Qingxuan that there were only nine Heavenly Tokens in the Celestialspirit Sect, and they belonged to the nine peak masters respectively. They were incredibly valuable because of the power that they represented.

Even Hong Qingxuan’s Heavenly Token was only given to her when she returned to the Hong Domain. After they came to the Dark Domain, it was taken back by Fairy of the Ninth Heaven.

Yet, Huangfu Qing had bestowed him with the precious Heavenly Token!

Su Mo was flabbergasted that he was given the Heavenly Token instead of his senior brothers. Did Master think that his talent exceeded that of his senior brothers, so he wanted to take better care of him because he had higher hopes for him?

Despite feeling puzzled, Su Mo still accepted the Heavenly Token. He would never turn down such a precious item.

“Thank you, Master!” Su Mo thanked Huangfu Qing once again.

“Ok! You can go!” Huangfu Qing nodded and waved his hand.

Su Mo then excused himself and left the palace.

After Su Mo was gone, the smile on Huangfu Qing’s face disappeared. His eyes flashed with unhappiness after he glanced at the jade note that had the Elephant’s Strength Skill etched on it.

Pop!

He crushed the jade note into powder.

...

After returning to his attic, Su Mo was stopped in his tracks by Cai Yun as he was heading toward the training room.

“Bring me out of the Celestialspirit Sect!” Cai Yun’s voice was, as always, cold as ice.

Su Mo was startled, but he quickly replied helplessly, “Let’s go!”

Since Su Mo was unwilling to keep this icy cold horned demon beauty around anymore, it would be better to bring her out as soon as possible.

Su Mo then brought Cai Yun out of his attic and left the Towering Sky Peak. They soon arrived at the gate of the Celestialspirit Sect.

“Do what you must!” Su Mo said.

Cai Yun shot Su Mo a glance and replied after a brief thought, “If you can help my Horned-demon tribe break free of the Celestialspirit Sect’s control in the future, I wouldn’t mind becoming your maid.”

Cai Yun then transformed into a black stream of light and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

“Uh...”

Feeling startled, Su Mo shook his head. He did not have the habit of employing maids.

He then returned to Towering Sky Peak and started cultivating again.

15 days passed quickly while Su Mo was engrossed in cultivating.

He finally cultivated Mountains-weight Skill to the third stage and greatly boosted the power of his Five Elements Vital Spirit again.

“It’s time to go out for training and earn some Spiritual Stones!” Su Mo sighed.

His cultivation was stable enough for him to attempt to break into Lv 4 Enlightenment Realm. However, he only had about 300,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, which was insufficient for him to level up.

The most important thing for him now was to earn Spiritual Stones, or he could hunt demonic beasts and devour their blood essence and demonic power.

Su Mo had already gave it some thought. Under the current circumstances, he could only earn Spiritual Stones outside, since fighting at the Casino Valley would not work again.

His true strength was witnessed by everyone in the sect, so the weaker disciples would never challenge him. Even if he were to fight against opponents of higher levels, only those absolute geniuses would fight him if they could guarantee a win.

More importantly, the stakes in Casino Valley were far too insignificant for Su Mo. He had to think of a way to strike it rich outside.

If there were truly no other options, Su Mo could even sell his Martial Scrolls. Lv 6 martial arts were worth an exorbitant price, and selling even one of them would be enough to support his cultivation for a long time!

After Su Mo exited his attic, he wanted to invite Feng Shaoyu and the rest, but he immediately shot down the idea since it was more convenient for him to travel alone.

Su Mo then headed straight for the gate after leaving Towering Sky Peak.

“Su Mo!” someone called out his name in a pleasantly surprised tone.

Su Mo turned around to see Dark Sky Peak’s Huang Yao. Standing beside her was the elegant Hong Qingxuan who was wearing a white cashmere skirt.

“Su Mo, are you going out for training?” Huang Yao arrived beside Su Mo first and asked.

“Yup!” Su Mo nodded.

“That’s great!” with a bright smile, Huang Yao said, “Junior Sister Hong and I are going out for training as well. We can travel together.”
