Chapter 2219: The Heavenly Rank

Su Mo came out from his seclusion after less than a month.

He bid farewell to the men from the Dragon Tribe and left for the Fifth Mountain with Xi’er, Li Feng, and Long Teng.

The mountain gate of Firmament Palace was ready. Indeed, the Sky Tyrant Clan was efficient.

During the past month, many people had come to the Dragon Tribe to look for Su Mo.

They were the leaders from various races and forces who wanted to get acquainted with Su Mo.

After all, Su Mo had become a top power in God’s Path and he was the Overlord of the most powerful force. No one would want to miss out on becoming acquainted with him.

However, Su Mo did not meet any of them.

Soon, Su Mo, Xi’er, Li Feng, and Long Teng came to the Fifth Mountain.

The Fifth Mountain used to be controlled by the Sky Tyrant Clan but Firmament Palace had taken control of it.

“Greetings, Master!”

“Greetings, Master!”

On the way to the Fifth Mountain, the men from the Sky Tyrant Clan bowed and were respectful toward the four of them when they saw them.

Su Mo noticed that those people seemed to have lost their Spiritual Souls, and they looked dispirited.

When Su Mo looked at it from another angle, he knew why it was so.

The powerful Sky Tyrant Clan had fallen from its power, and no one in the Sky Tyrant Clan had got used to it yet.

Soon, the four of them came to a piece of grassland.

The grassland was vast, and it was not far from the tribe.

A majestic city was situated in the middle of the grassland.

The city was about 11,000 kilometers long and 8,000 kilometers wide. It was vast and majestic.

There were many buildings, palaces, and garrets in the city.

More than 100 top powers from the Sky Tyrant Clan were standing in front of the city gate at that moment.

A few thousand guards from the Sky Tyrant Clan were standing at the four corners of the city wall.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Su Mo and the three of them moved at lightning speed and landed in front of the city gate.

“Greetings, Master!”

“Greetings, Master!”

“Greetings, Master!”

When the top powers saw Su Mo and his companions, they shouted and bowed at them.

They did not bow specifically to any of them as all the four were masters in their perception.

Su Mo looked at the city gate and saw the words ‘Firmament Palace’ being written on the gate. The words were dazzling and filled with splendor.

Su Mo then looked at the people. The one standing at the front was Li Tong, the Clan Leader. The rest of them comprised the Empty Gods and the Martial Sages.

The Holy Sage, Li Ba, was not among them.

“You may do away with the formalities!”

Su Mo waved his hand and asked coldly, “Where is Li Ba?”

“The Holy Sage is in seclusion!” Li Tong replied.

“Get him to come and see me!” Su Mo said flatly. Li Ba was a Half Deity, and Su Mo had to let him know his position.

If he did not do so, Li Feng and Long Teng would not be able to control Li Ba.

Although Li Feng and Long Teng could control Li Ba’s destiny, everyone knew that they would not kill him.

After all, the Sky Tyrant Clan’s strength had weakened after they had lost Li Ba.

“Yes!” Li Tong’s face twitched. He then instructed one of the top powers to inform Li Ba.

“Master, please follow me to the city. I will update you on the layout of the city.” Li Tong said.

“Alright!” Su Mo nodded. The four of them then followed Li Tong into the city.

The city in Firmament Palace was split into the inner city and the outer city. The outer city occupied 70 percent of the area and it had 30,000 palaces. There were 10,000 courtyards and garrets.

The inner city took up 30 percent of the area, and there were 20,000 palaces and garrets.

At that moment, those were the buildings being constructed. However, there would be more buildings coming up as the city was big.

“Good job!” Su Mo nodded. The men from the Sky Tyrant Clan were efficient. They had completed such a big project within a month.

They must have used a lot of people to get the job done within such a short period of time.

After Su Mo had taken a good look at the layout of the city, he went to the inner city and settled down.

He and Xi’er had chosen a magnificent-looking palace, and Li Feng and Long Teng had chosen a luxurious palace each for themselves.

Soon, Li Ba arrived at Su Mo’s palace.

“Take a seat!”

Su Mo did not put on airs, and he asked Li Ba to take a seat.

Li Ba nodded and sat opposite Su Mo.

“Li Ba, you should be aware that there is no way for you to enhance your strength!” Su Mo said flatly.

“What do you mean?” Li Ba asked with a frown. He knew that unless he entered the Deity Plane, he would not be able to make any further enhancements.

“What I mean is, your goal is the Deity Plane. However, you need to have my permission if you wish to be there!” Su Mo replied.

When Li Ba heard what Su Mo had said, he was silent and his face darkened.

He had been brooding over the issue recently. He was not far from entering the Deity Plane but he had lost his freedom.

If Su Mo did not give his consent, Li Ba would not be able to go to Deity Plane.

After all, Li Feng and Long Teng could destroy his soul at any time.

“Will you give me the opportunity to do so?” Li Ba asked Su Mo after he had pondered for a while.

“Definitely. I will definitely give you the opportunity. I am not that unreasonable!” Su Mo said with a smile.

Li Ba heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. He was glad that Su Mo was willing to give him the opportunity to enter the Deity Plane.

“However, it will depend on your performance!”

Su Mo changed his tone and said, “For the next few years, if you work hard and prove your loyalty to Firmament Palace, I will let you go to Deity Plane.”

Li Ba took a deep breath. He nodded and said, “I hope that you will keep your word!”

As long as Li Ba could go to the Deity Plane, he was willing to take on any important task, let alone such a simple task.

“I always honor my word. You may go now!” Su Mo smiled and waved his hand.

“I will make a move then!”

Li Ba stood up. He cupped his fist at Su Mo and left.

Li Ba had the load off his mind since he had Su Mo’s promise.

“I wonder when that will happen!”

Su Mo muttered to himself as he watched Li Ba departing. He had no idea when the Deity Plane would change its base.

He had to prepare himself well for it. He would be left with only a few decades if it took place earlier.

Su Mo then shook his head and went into seclusion again. This time around, he would spend a longer period of time in seclusion so that he could have a breakthrough to Rank 3 Empty God Realm.

The Rank 3 Empty God Realm was known as the Heavenly Rank and that realm was connected to the Spiritual Soul.

When one reached Rank 3, the Spiritual Soul would turn into a Martial Arts Primordial Spirit.

The Martial Arts Primordial Spirit was formed by the transformation of the Spiritual Soul and the Fighting Soul. It was a process where a martial artist transformed into a deity.

Su Mo shut his eyes in the secret chamber and started to work on his cultivation.

Time passed quickly as he dwelt on his cultivation.

One year!

Two years!

Three years!

While Su Mo was in seclusion, more and more people came to Firmament Palace.

Si Kongyan, Qing Ya, Jiang Fengran, and the Masters of the nine palaces had arrived.

In the twinkle of an eye, 10 years had passed. There were more than 10 people in Firmament Palace.

That day, Su Mo came out of seclusion.
