On the ninth level of the Thick Earth Tower, Su Mo sat cross-legged. Within the immense gravity field, his profound strength continued to condense.
After cultivating for some time, his profound strength cultivation had become quite solid.
However, he was still far from being able to devour spiritual qi and break through the barrier of his realm.
The Martial Emperor Realm was no trifling matter. Breaking through further would no longer be as simple as it had been in the Martial King Realm.
Su Mo calmed his mind and focused on cultivation, unaware that the Azure World had already undergone a magnitude-ten earthquake because of him.
Emperor Xuan Palace was holding an emergency meeting.
Within the council hall, all the upper ranks of Emperor Xuan Palace had gathered.
Di Shi, clad in brocade robes, sat in the seat of honor. His expression was solemn, his eyes deep and unfathomable, revealing nothing of what lay in his heart.
"Palace Master, according to the reports, the ancient hegemonic force, Azure Divine Palace, which was destroyed countless millennia ago, has reemerged. And its successor is Su Mo!" an elder reported to Di Shi with cupped fists.
"I already know," Di Shi said, nodding expressionlessly.
The other upper ranks of Emperor Xuan Palace had also learned of this long ago, and all wore complicated expressions.
None of them had expected Su Mo to possess such a trump card.
After pondering briefly, Di Shi looked toward Hua Taishan and asked, "Great Elder, what do you think?"
Hua Taishan looked somewhat grave. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Su Mo is truly beyond all reckoning. No wonder he rose so quickly—he had the foundation of Azure Divine Palace behind him!"
"Get to the point," Di Shi said, shaking his head.
"Yes."
