Warrior's Promise

Chapter 2351: Can’t Figure It Out

Su Mo and Fu Yuanqing waited in the canyon for four hours before three groups of people came to them.

As expected, all of them were suppressed by Su Mo and they were forced to hand their Path Swords over to him.

As Su Mo did not have a feud with them, he did not kill them.

After the three groups of people had left, no one else came to the area.

“11 Path Swords!”

Su Mo muttered as he sat cross-legged in the canyon. So far, he had obtained 11 Path Swords and thus he had passed the test.

Since he would be more handsomely rewarded if he obtained more Path Swords, naturally he was motivated to get more.

“Fu Yuanqing, how big is the area? Where are the people?” Su Mo asked as he turned his head to look at Fu Yuanqing.

“This place has a large area. It has a radius of 16,000,000 kilometers!

Fu Yuanqing looked grim and he continued and said, “I think most people share the same mindset as us. They are also waiting for the people to go to them which explains why no one is here. The top powers must be holding on to the rest of the Path Swords as the weaker ones will not be able to keep them!”

“Bring me to where the people are!” Su Mo said and stood up.

“Alright!”

Fu Yuanqing nodded. Both of them left the canyon and Fu Yuanqing brought Su Mo to another place.

The two of them then flew around in search of the people.

Given Su Mo’s strength, he would suppress anyone who came their way.

Basically, only the top powers possessed several Path Swords and the weaker ones did not have any with them.

After going around for more than 20 hours, Su Mo obtained more than 500 Path Swords.

The gifted geniuses would have at least more than 10 Path Swords with them. Su Mo simply had to snatch over the Path Swords from one of the gifted geniuses and he would have obtained a large number of Path Swords.

Su Mo’s actions caused an uproar among the people as they were amazed by his strength, given his low cultivation level.

Although Tuoba Liuming, Yun Mu, and Han Sheng were doing the same thing, everyone was able to accept their actions as Tuoba Liuming and the others were top powers. However, Su Mo was not known to them.

When Su Mo was snatching the Path Swords from the people, he had sensed Yun Mu’s aura. However, he chose to move away from Yun Mu as it was not time for them to fight yet.

After all, Su Mo had managed to defeat Qianhuan Demon Lord as he had taken him off guard. It seemed impossible for Su Mo to defeat Yun Mu at that moment.

Su Mo and Fu Yuanqing flew into the green forest with one following behind the other.

“Brother Qin…you have obtained enough Path Swords. It seems impossible for you to obtain more!” Fu Yuanqing told Su Mo.

“Why is that so?” Su Mo asked.

“When the weaker martial artists have obtained 10 Path Swords, they will immediately head to the next test. I believe that most of them have left. As for Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu, it will be difficult for you to snatch the Path Swords from them.” Fu Yuanqing replied.

Although Fu Yuanqing knew that Su Mo was powerful, he believed that Su Mo could not defeat Yun Mu and the other top powers. It was simply impossible for him to do so.

“Do you mean we can move on to the next test?” Su Mo stopped moving when he heard what Fu Yuanqing had said. In that case, he would leave immediately.

There were around 3,000 Path Swords in the area and he had obtained more than 500 of them. They were enough for him.

“Yes. Even if you continue with the search, you will not be able to find many around!” Fu Yuanqing nodded.

“Alright!” Su Mo sighed. In that case, he would move on to the next test.

Su Mo triggered his thoughts and all the Path Swords appeared in front of him.

There were 508 Path Swords and all the Path Swords possessed different Ways of the Sword.

“These are for you!”

Su Mo waved his hand and 10 Path Swords flew toward Fu Yuanqing.

“Are these…for me?” When Fu Yuanqing saw the Path Swords, he was surprised. He could not believe his eyes.

It had never occurred to him that Su Mo would give him 10 Path Swords. It was a pleasant surprise.

“I’ve told you I will treat you well since you have helped me!”

Su Mo said. He looked at the remaining Path Swords and stretched out his hand. Immense Dark Force gushed out from his hand and covered all the Path Swords up.

The 498 Path Swords started to move as they were engulfed by the Chaotic Power Source. They formed a unique array and exuded a mysterious aura.

When Fu Yuanqing saw it, he took a deep breath. He took action as well and did not say another word.

Although he was surprised by Su Mo’s generosity, he did not turn down the offer and gladly accepted the Path Swords.

He was grateful to Su Mo. If he had not followed Su Mo, he would not have been able to gather the 10 Path Swords as he would have been robbed by the people.

The array that was formed by the 498 Path Swords formed a circle and gradually rotated above Su Mo.

The array emitted a mysterious aura and ultimately, it formed an airstream and poured down into Su Mo’s body.

Su Mo and the array disappeared simultaneously.

The array that was formed by the 10 Path Swords emitted a mysterious aura as well. It covered Fu Yuanqing up and Fu Yuanqing and the array disappeared from the area.

Su Mo gently shut his eyes as the airstream continued to surge into his body.

His awareness had entered another mystical world.

Many people were displaying their skills with their swords. They were using different types of Path Swords in the mystical world.

There was the Water-based Way of the Sword and the force was perpetual. There was the Strength Way of the Sword and every blow seemed to contain the weight of a few hundred stars. There was also the Tracking Way of the Sword that would hit the opponent regardless of where they were hidden.

There were various rare and unique Ways of the Sword which amounted to exactly 498 types.

Those people were displaying their skills and they exuded the spirits of different Ways of the Sword.

As Su Mo watched the Ways of the Sword, he immersed himself into comprehending them.

He was trying to learn from the Ways of the Sword.

However, he was not trying to learn the few hundred Ways of the Sword as he knew that it was impossible. He believed that no one could do so.

What he wanted to learn was the way that those people delivered the skills. He wanted to learn the essentials of the Ways of the Sword and incorporate them into his own skills.

Time passed quickly as Su Mo observed the various Ways of the Sword and learned from them.

He did not even realize that time had gone by so quickly. As he comprehended the essentials of the Ways of the Sword, his skills had been enhanced without him realizing it.

However, he had lots of doubts.

“How do I merge or display the Ultimate Sword Art?” Su Mo muttered to himself.

He reckoned that the Ultimate Sword Honorable had gathered all the Ways of the Sword and created the Ultimate Sword Art.

However, how could he go about merging them?

There were more than 400 Ways of the Sword. How could he merge all of them together?

Su Mo reckoned that Ultimate Sword Honorable would not master the Ultimate Sword Art as no one could define what it was.

If one had mastered 100 Ways of the Sword and merged them together, it could be considered as an Ultimate Sword Art. On the other hand, if one had mastered 1,000 Ways of the Sword and merged them together, that would also be an Ultimate Sword Art.

No one knew how many Ways of the Sword there were and even Ultimate Sword Honorable did not have any idea either.

In any case, the Ultimate Sword Art was profound. As more and more Ways of the Sword were created, there would be more Ultimate Sword Arts.

I can’t figure it out! Su Mo knitted his brows. He could not figure out what the Ultimate Sword Art was and how he was able to merge the Ways of the Sword together.

It would be impossible to learn all the Ways of the Sword.

Su Mo believed that there had to be a faster way of doing so. However, no one knew how to do it.

If somebody had known it, they would have mastered the Ultimate Sword Art.

After a while, Su Mo stopped thinking about it. He stopped observing the Ways of the Sword and brought his attention back to the present.

Suddenly, the scene in front of him disappeared and he found himself in a special place.
