Warrior’s Promise

It was early morning.

In the misty morn, Su Mo left his attic and headed for Great Heaven Peak.

After having comprehended craftsmanship for three days, Su Mo was quite familiar with some simple crafting methods. Now he needed to practice.

During this trip to Great Heaven Peak, Su Mo planned to buy some materials and a crafting furnace and check out the Gravitational Cultivation Room that Hong Qingxuan had recommended.

Su Mo was not in a rush to practice craftsmanship because he had enough stones to cultivate for a while.

However, he could not afford to suspend improving his strength. There was not much time left before the Martial Arts Competition of the Nine Peaks, in which he would definitely participate. He would only be humiliated there if he was not strong enough.

After a short while, Su Mo arrived at Great Heaven Peak and entered the Spiritual Treasure Palace.

There were many disciples spreading out goods for sale in the booth even in the early morning.

Su Mo strolled around the stalls but had not yet found anyone selling a crafting furnace. He then walked over to the counters.

The counters belonged to the Celestialspirit Sect. They were rather standard and had all sorts of things in stock.

Su Mo asked around and found the counter that sold crafting furnaces.

Just like weapons and cultivation skills, the crafting furnaces were also graded into Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3, etc.

However, they were not classified. Each level’s crafting furnace could craft Upper, Medium, and Lower items in its level.

Su Mo spent 550,000 Medium Spiritual Stones on a Lv 4 crafting furnace.

He planned to start by crafting Lv 4 weapons, which were for Enlightenment Realm martial artists.

Subsequently, Su Mo spent more than 800,000 Medium Spiritual Stones to buy 1,000 pounds of superior Dark Steel and more than 100 pounds of Silver-essence Sand and Floating-cloud Marble.

Dark Steel, Silver-essence Sand, and Floating-cloud Marble were essential materials for crafting Lv 4 weapons.

He bought a big bottle of quenching liquid later on, and then left the Spiritual Treasure Palace for the Gravitational Cultivation Room.

The Gravitational Cultivation Room was located at the back of Great Heaven Peak. Its entrance was a 20-foot-high cave, and “Gravitational Cultivation Room” was carved above the cave.

The cave was deep, stretching into the center of Great Heaven Peak.

There were quite a few disciples going in and out of the cave.

Su Mo halted at the entrance for a second and then went straight into the cave.

The tunnel became wider and wider during his walk. After hundreds of feet, Su Mo arrived at a spacious hall.

A front desk sat in the center of the hall, and an outer elder was taking a nap in a deck chair behind the desk. There were also a number of stone chairs in the hall, while many disciples were sitting on the chairs.

Su Mo walked up to the front desk and said, “Elder, I need a room.” Hong Qingxuan had mentioned that one had to pay a certain amount to use the room, so he figured that he had to pay the elder.

The elder was over 60 years old and potbellied.

“The medium cultivation room is full. You’ll have to wait here,” the fat elder said coldly with his eyes closed.

“Full?” Su Mo was shocked. He then looked at those disciples in stone chairs and wondered if they were also waiting.

After a short pause, Su Mo asked, “Is there a room available on another level?”

Since the medium cultivation room was full, he thought that there might be lower or upper rooms available.

“Lower cultivation rooms are for True Spirit Realm disciples, so they’re useless for you. Upper cultivation rooms are for True Darkness Realm Inner Disciples, so you, as an Enlightenment Realm martial artist, can’t bear the pressure at all.”

The fat elder had noticed Su Mo’s cultivation and shook his head.

Su Mo sighed. He did not expect for the Gravitational Cultivation Rooms to be in such short supply.

There were over 30 people waiting in the hall; he did not know when he could use the room!

When Su Mo shook his head and decided to leave, a young man in luxurious clothes walked in.

“Elder, medium cultivation room No.178, please.” The young man walked over to the desk and waved out a pile of Medium Spiritual Stones.

The fat elder opened his eyes, glanced at him, and took the stones. “Go!”

“Okay!” The young man nodded and walked to the passage on the left side.

Su Mo was surprised to see this. “Why is he able to use a medium cultivation room?”

Su Mo’s face looked terrible as he stared at the elder and asked with a cold voice, “Didn’t you just say that the medium cultivation rooms are full? Why is there a spare room for that guy now?”

Su Mo was not being polite and the elder was not comfortable with Su Mo’s tone.

The elder turned his head and took a glimpse at Su Mo. He was slightly shocked with furrowed eyebrows. “Are you Su Mo from the Towering Sky Peak?”

Since the last fight with Murong Wudi, Su Mo had become well-known in the Celestialspirit Sect.

“Yes, I am!” Su Mo nodded.

The fat elder eased his mind and said in a deep voice, “There are indeed many rooms left, but they are reserved by the others!”

“What? They can even reserve the rooms?”

Su Mo frowned, thinking that they had not paid yet.

He asked, “Have they paid yet?”

“No.” The fat elder shook his head.

Su Mo snorted. If they had not paid, then those rooms were available.

“Reservation? You shouldn’t call it a reservation if there wasn’t any payment in advance.”

“If I were to reserve all the rooms without paying even a single stone, who the fu*k would be able to use a room then?!”

“Elder, what’s the price for a medium cultivation room?”

“10,000 Medium Spiritual Stones per day.”

“Great.”

Su Mo nodded and waved out a pile of Spiritual Stones. “Here are 150,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, I want a medium cultivation room for 15 days.”

“This…” The fat elder’s face showed his hesitation.

Su Mo’s face fell when he saw that. He coldly said, “Elder, they haven’t paid any stones. Why should they waste the rooms for no reason? Are you abusing your authority here?”

This was real interrogation!

The fat elder became furious upon hearing that. However, he did not dare to offend a Towering Sky Peak disciple.

An idea flashed through his mind, and he grinned inside. “All right, you can go to cultivation room No.306 on the left passage!”

Su Mo nodded and walked toward the passage.
