Chapter 1210 - Uninvited Guests

Su Mo and Qin Busi stood outside the ancient temple. A broad street faced them. They were in a gigantic city.

The Transporting Formation had sent them to their destination in Star Guzhou–the ancient temple behind them.

“Su Mo, I think it’s time we separate!” Qin Busi stared at the lofty buildings before them and remarked softly.

“Where do you intend to go?” Su Mo asked.

“Ha ha! Star Guzhou is one of the main stars in the Ancientspirit Galaxy. It’s immense. I’m sure I can find some place to go!” Qin Busi smiled.

“If anything crops up, look me up at the Shenwu Academy!” Su Mo nodded. In the few months they were traveling together, they had gathered some information about the Academy.

The Shenwu Academy was one of the oldest institutions within the Ancientspirit Galaxy. It was founded several million years ago by a dozen or so superpowers.

Many of its teachers were from this dozen or so superpowers.

A large number of the Galaxy’s human talents had enrolled into the Academy. Many geniuses and heretic heirs had hailed from this Academy, making it famous throughout the Ancientspirit Galaxy.

It was the holy land for many young martial artists of the Ancientspirit Galaxy. Every year, countless geniuses joined the Shenwu Academy.

Of course, the Shenwu Academy would not nurture these talents for nothing. All these martial artist graduates with outstanding cultivations must join one of its dozen or so superpowers.

Otherwise, they would be killed!

This was how these superpowers maintained their thriving influence.

If such geniuses kept joining them after hitting a certain realm in their cultivations, it would be impossible for these superpowers to decline.

Cangyun Sect, which Steward Chai had joined, was one of these dozen superpowers. This Sect, one could imagine, was very powerful.

After finding out more about the Academy, Su Mo yearned badly to enter it.

He had made up his mind to enroll in the Academy.

“I will!”

Qin Busi nodded and said, “Go and pursue your martial arts. I will seek my own way!”

“I hope we will meet again!” Su Mo sighed. He had originally wanted Qin Busi to join the Firmament Palace. But Qin Busi was surely too ambitious to remain inside.

“I’m sure we will!”

Qin Busi’s expression was resolute. He stared with shining eyes at Su Mo and said, “I hope by the time we meet again, you are already an eminent expert of Star Guzhou!”

“Let’s hope so!” Su Mo nodded.

Qin Busi and Su Mo chatted for a long time. Finally, Qin Busi walked out with broad strides and disappeared from Su Mo’s sight.

When the two met again several years later, nothing had remained the same!

…

Su Mo sauntered around this magnificent city. He inquired casually and discovered the exact whereabouts of the Shenwu Academy.

After that, he did not delay. He instantly soared into the sky and headed in its direction.

Flying in the sky, Su Mo continued to ponder. He wondered how he could make arrangements for the Firmament Palace people.

There were so many of them. It was impossible for him to bring everyone there into the Shenwu Academy. He must find a place to settle them down.

However, the cities here were all immense. Numerous experts resided in them. If he had kept the Firmament Palace here, he would be worried.

After all, there were too many people in the Firmament Palace. If even one of them offended an expert or a superpower, everyone inside might be exterminated.

After much pondering, he finally decided to find a small place to settle them down.

Su Mo slowed down and examined the ground as he flew.

After flying for two days, he finally discovered a suitable location.

A small town in an expansive, open land before him.

With a radius of slightly more than 100 kilometers, It was not a big town. Hills covered three of its sides and its location was very remote.

Although it was a small town, it was several times bigger than Su Mo’s hometown, Sunnywood City.

Su Mo surveyed the place with his spiritual consciousness. He discovered it had a population of several million. There was only one Martial Emperor in the town. It was very suitable for the Firmament Palace inhabitants.

At the very least, that single expert of the town could not threaten the Palace’s safety.

Swoosh!

Su Mo streaked like lightning and ended up in the town.

Strolling on its streets, he carefully surveyed the place. The town was not big, but their inhabitants’ martial arts was astonishingly high.

There were many martial artists in the Martial King Realm and even the Martial Royal Realm. The people from this little town could crush everyone from the Firmament World.

After strolling around the town, Su Mo reached its eastern part. There was a huge area there which could serve as the temporary location of the main gate.

He had wanted to rob someone else’s mansion, but in the end abandoned the plan.

First, it was too arrogant to seize another person’s mansion. It was not his style.

Second, no mansion here could accommodate the entire Firmament Palace.

In the end, he could only make the Firmament Palace people build their own mansion.

Su Mo’s mind flashed. The place experienced a space fluctuation. Numerous figures appeared around him.

More than 1,000 people materialized. They were the leaders of the Firmament Palace, including the Master of the Nine Palaces.

“Su Mo!”

“Palace Master!”

“Palace Master, where are we?”

After they were let out, everyone started to clamor. They sized the place up curiously.

“What a strong Spiritual Qi!” Everyone took a deep breath and was stunned. The Spiritual Qi here was overwhelming. The Firmament World could not rival it at all–the Spiritual Qi here was at least twenty times stronger than inside.

“Everybody, this is Star Guzhou. We will erect the main gate to our Palace in this town.” Su Mo cast his eyes around, declaring loudly.

“Brother Su Mo, have you managed to escape that Honorable Sorcerer who chased after you?” Xi’er asked.

“That’s right… Are you safe now, Palace Master?”

“Will that Honorable Sorcerer come after us?”

The others started asking questions too. After all, Su Mo had mentioned that he was stalked by an Honorable Sorcerer.

“No one needs to worry now! We are absolutely safe here!” Su Mo announced with a laugh.

Everybody was overjoyed. They had finally escaped from the Firmament World.

“Everyone, I let you all out to discuss a matter–the rebuilding of our Sect!”

Su Mo stared at the empty expansive lot before him and announced loudly, “We’ll erect the main gate right here. How long will it take for all to complete it?”

“At least 10 days!”

“About 10 days, I think!”

“You don’t need 10 days. Seven or eight days will be enough!”

All the people were speaking one after another. They were all experts. To erect the main gate was for them a piece of cake.

“Very well! Keep everything simple. I’ll give you three days to erect the main gate!” Su Mo nodded as he gave his instructions. He had cut down the time to merely three days.

Then, he chatted with the rest. After a briefing, everyone started to work.

There were mountains nearby and trees on the mountains. It was a simple task to build a main gate.

The experts of the Firmament Palace could all raise several hundred large trees with a wave of their hands. The mountain peak was sundered with a cleave of the saber. Huge boulders were carried straight down.

Soon, the courtyard wall outside the main gate had been erected. It was built completely out of mountain rocks.

The courtyard wall erected from these mountain rocks was extremely smooth. Each side was carved out of a single block.

They were cleaved by using sharp weapons and carried down directly from the mountain peak.

While the experts of the Firmament Palace busied themselves, Su Mo remained carefree. Taking Xi’er’s hand in his own, he chatted with her on a large rock.

Su Mo did not make her work. Instead, he told her what he knew about the Ancientspirit Galaxy, making her gasp often in wonder.

Time went swiftly by. After six hours, the rudimentary framework of a main gate could be seen.

The several thousand experts from the Firmament Palace were building the main gate aggressively. They attracted the town’s experts and caused a great commotion.

From a distance, numerous martial artists were watching them work. As they gathered, they could not stop their discussions.

“Where did these experts come from?”

“They are all experts. Many of them are nearly Emperors-to-be!”

“They are building a new mansion here!”

The clamor rose as the bystanders chattered on. 100,000 people stood nearby and watched.

“Get out of the way!”

A loud roar resounded. The watching bystanders were separated. A mob of uninvited guests strutted toward the main gate the Firmament Palace people were building.
