Chapter 80 - Change of Appearance
Since he had joined, Su Zimo had not left the sect nor taken on any missions.
Since he wanted to head out, Su Zimo decided to take on a mission along the way to earn some contribution points.
Arriving at the mission stele of Weapon Peak, he raised his head and looked.
The mission stele was divided into two sections. The upper section contained missions for the five peaks that any disciples could take on while the lower section only had missions of Weapon Peak reserved for their own disciples.
The further front the mission was, the more difficult it would be and the more contribution points earned.
Great Rock Forest.
It was located dozens of miles Northward of Ethereal Peak and was abound in pure gold, a crucial material for refining flying swords.
Su Zimo cast away his flying sword and sprinted on his feet, zipping left and right. Before long, he lost the people trailing him and arrived at a secluded spot where he abandoned his green robes and bared his upper body.
A series of cracking sounds came forth from within Su Zimo as his tendons and bones screamed together while his body expanded. In the blink of an eye, he had grown to over two meters tall with his flesh swelled and muscles bound together. His body had inflated entirely!
Su Zimo’s facial muscles contorted and joined together bizarrely. After a split second, his features had changed as he transformed into a fierce, burly man with a naked upper body!
With the first three sections of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness completed, Su Zimo could change his appearance from head to toe such that even those close to him would not be able to recognize him!
Lowering his head, Su Zimo laughed and with a swift dash, disappeared from where he was.
…
“Senior Brother Zhou, where did that Su Zimo run off to? How did we suddenly lose track of him?”
“That’s why I said we should have made a move earlier on! How are we going to find him now that he slipped into Great Rock Forest?”
“Shut up!” Zhou Wei’s face was grim as he hollered, “We were so close to the sect just now. What if a disciple heading out spots us making a move at him? We’ll be punished when we head back if that happens!”
Zhou Wei was a trial disciple of Spirit Peak. At Level 9 Qi Condensation, he was quite a somebody within it too.
Then came someone like Feng Haoyu with a variant spirit root and a heavenly defying endowment, defeating him with a mere Level 7 Qi Condensation.
Zhou Wei had submitted completely in the face of Feng Haoyu’s strength.
Even though he conducted this operation on his own accord, it was with Feng Haoyu’s silent consent.
Apart from Zhou Wei at Level 9 Qi Condensation, there were four others at Level 7 and 8 – these people were enough to teach Su Zimo a harsh lesson!
“Look again carefully. That Su Zimo is only at Level 5 Qi Condensation. How far can he run? He’s definitely at the perimeter of Great Rock Forest,” Zhou Wei analyzed calmly.
A Spirit Peak disciple asked, “What if he already ran inside Great Rock Forest?”
“That’s for the best. If that lad gets shredded apart by the spirit beasts, he only has himself to blame,” Zhou Wei replied with a cold snicker.
Another Spirit Peak disciple asked, “How should we deal with Su Zimo if we find him?”
A cold look flashed through Zhou Wei’s eyes as he spoke darkly, “We’re forbidden to murder or cripple any fellow disciples of their martial arts. However, we can injure him severely by breaking his bones and tendons! If he can’t get out of bed for the whole year, he naturally won’t be able to take part in the year end face-off for Weapon Peak!”
