Within the palace, Su Mo sat like an old monk in meditation, his breathing long and even.
He had been sitting quietly for more than ten days, ceaselessly tempering the profound strength within his body and consolidating his cultivation.
Slowly, Su Mo opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
"It should be about enough!" A sharp gleam flickered in Su Mo's eyes. He felt that his cultivation could attempt another breakthrough.
Before returning to Emperor Xuan Palace, he had generally never forgotten to cultivate and condense his cultivation even while traveling.
Now that he had secluded himself for another dozen days, it should have been enough to break through.
Then, Su Mo entered the Illusory Realm Divine Diagram, took out no fewer than six hundred Divine Cores, and began devouring them.
These Divine Cores had all been obtained from the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect experts he had slain.
There were not many experts above the Martial King Realm in the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect's branch halls, so the Divine Cores he could obtain were limited as well.

Profound strength boiled and Divine Cores exploded as Su Mo began cultivating.
This process did not last long. After roughly an hour and a half, the profound strength from all the Divine Cores had been completely exhausted.
However, Su Mo's cultivation had not broken through, though it had reached the critical threshold.
"It's still not enough!"
Su Mo was secretly shocked. Among these several hundred Divine Cores were several Martial Emperor-grade Divine Cores, yet they still were not enough for him to consume. This showed just how terrifying his expenditure was.
Then, Su Mo took out a great number of Spirit Stones, piling them into a small mountain a hundred zhang high, and continued to Devour Spirit Stones.
