ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR, VOLUME 8 - Season 23 Episode 4

Sizzle!

The moment Su Zimo gripped the Mars Stone, a jarring sound echoed from his palm as green smoke billowed.

The flesh on his palm burned at a visible speed. In less than two breaths, the flesh on his palm had turned into nothingness.

The jade green lotus bones were only not burned to ashes by the Mars Stone because it experienced the forging of thunder.

!!

“This is bad!”

When he saw that, Xie Qingcheng frowned and exclaimed softly.

What he was worried about earlier on had happened.

To think that Su Zimo did not retreat and chose to snatch the Mars Stone forcefully.

He could not withstand the power of the Mars Stone at all.

Now, it was equivalent to a crippled palm for Su Zimo.

As an Earth Immortal, he could definitely regrow this broken limb.

However, the damage caused by the Mars Stone might not recover completely even after hundreds or thousands of years!

Now, even if Su Zimo let go, the Mars Stone had already caused him immense damage.

There was no longer much hope for him to contend for the Earth Ranking.

With his arm crippled and such a powerful fire secret skill released, it was difficult for him to be ranked on the Earth Ranking given the immense consumption.

The elders of the academy had grim expressions and could not help but stand up to look at the scene in the mirror.

“Hahahaha!”

Prince Yuan Zuo could not help but laugh.

He felt incomparably delighted when he saw Su Zimo in such a state!

Initially, Yun Ting was not concerned about this elimination round.

In his opinion, the so-called Nine Heavens could not stop Su Zimo at all.

But now that he saw such a change, he frowned slightly and looked at the figure in the depths of the volcano fixedly.

“This lad is truly… way too persistent,”

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling shook his head and sighed.

Initially, he thought highly of this disciple of the academy.

After all, someone worthy of Yun Ting’s personal challenge must have some tricks up his sleeves even though he came from a lowly background.

But now that he saw how stubborn this lad was, he could not help but feel disappointed.

Actually, the reason why he said that this lad was persistent was because he wanted to give face to Heaven and Earth Academy.

In his opinion, this lad had lost his mind because he was too greedy. No matter how talented a cultivator as such was, his future accomplishments would be limited.

Right then, the figure in the depths of the volcano did something unexpected!

Even though he was severely injured, Su Zimo did not let go. Instead, he gripped the Mars Stone tightly and stuffed it into his consciousness!

“What is he doing?!”

“Is he crazy?!”

“Su Zimo committed suicide?”

Most of the Earth Immortals in the square could not see what was happening inside and could only hear the Heaven Immortal experts in the sect shouting.

Initially, these Heaven Immortal experts were calm and experienced. However, they seemed to have seen something and were shocked at the moment.

A Heaven Immortal expert gasped and was speechless. “Su Zimo probably can’t withstand the pain and stuffed the Mars Stone into his consciousness!”

“Ah!”

When everyone heard that, they felt chills run down their spines.

Everyone witnessed the power of the Mars Stone.

This was something that even a body of flesh and blood could not defend against; even a Heaven Immortal would not be able to withstand it being stuffed into their consciousness!

Yun Ting’s gaze was sharp as a sword as he glared at the mirror in the firmaments.

He did not believe this!

There was no way Su Zimo would commit suicide!

Right then, the other Heaven Immortals gradually calmed down as well. They looked into the depths of the volcano with changed expressions.

The space in the depths of the volcano gradually stabilized.

Many cultivators could see everything clearly as well.

Su Zimo was not dead!

Unknowingly, he had already taken out a brand new green robe from his storage bag and wore it once more.

His right hand that was burned by the Mars Stone was hidden under his wide robes and no one could see it.

The depths of the volcano returned to normal.

Su Zimo was still the same as before with black hair and green robes. However, the Mars Stone in front of him had already vanished.

“He’s not dead?”

Xie Qingcheng, the academy elders, Prince Yuan Zuo, Heaven Immortal White Sea and many other Heaven Immortal experts were dumbfounded in disbelief.

…

Even Perfected Immortal Xie Ling was stunned on the spot, not knowing what happened.

“Look, something is happening to Level 1!”

Someone exclaimed.

In Level 1, the Lava Giants who were initially stopping many Earth Immortals and killing wantonly as well as the Fire Sparrows seemed to have suffered a blow—their eyes dimmed as they dissipated!

The massive body of the Lava Giants exploded, turning into thick and scorching lava that splashed onto the ground.

The Fire Sparrows dissipated as well, turning into scarlet clouds that floated in the skies like a sunset glow.

“The… Mars Stone was suppressed?”

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling blinked and murmured.

That was the only possibility that could explain the scene before him!

In other words, Su Zimo stuffed the Mars Stone into his consciousness and suppressed it instead!

Xie Ling had more or less guessed it.

…

The Mars Stone was stuffed into Su Zimo’s consciousness and devoured by the Hell Suppression Tripod.

Not only was it suppressed, it was also being refined by the Hell Suppression Tripod!

Dharmic treasures could not be used in the Nine Heavens.

However, the Hell Suppression Tripod did everything in Su Zimo’s consciousness and was not against the rules. Even the Heaven and Earth laws of the Nine Heavens had no feedback, allowing his actions.

“W-Wha—”

Prince Yuan Zuo was stunned for a long time before gradually reacting. He wanted to say something but his mind was in a mess. He only said instinctively, “That’s not good, right?”

Heaven Immortal White Sea spread his folding fan and said in a deep voice, “Your Highness Xie Ling, the Mars Stone is the foundation of the Nine Heavens and is priceless. How can we let this lad take it away casually?”

“This…”

Xie Ling remained silent.

“Fufu.”

A sneer sounded from the side.

Yun Ting pouted. “In my opinion, the rules of the Nine Heavens are just for show. We can’t take away everything inside casually. Otherwise, I guess hearts will be broken.”

Yun Ting was clearly mocking Xie Ling and the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom.

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling took a deep breath and was not angered. Suddenly, he smiled and said, “The foundation of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom is strong and it’s just a Mars Stone. It’s no big deal.”

By saying that, it meant that this matter could no longer be pursued.

Prince Yuan Zuo and Heaven Immortal White Sea were helpless and could only sit back down.

“Hmph!”

Prince Yuan Zuo sneered, “So what if he obtains the Mars Stone? That lad has expended a lot of energy in that fight earlier on. Now that he has released his trump card and crippled a palm, let’s see how he’s going to fight for the Earth Ranking!”

Right then, Su Zimo left the depths of the volcano and passed through the lava, returning to the mouth of the volcano.

He took out the badge in his storage bag and took a look.

Initially, he was in the first place. After this delay, he was now in the 200,000 region!

Su Zimo’s expression was indifferent.

Everything was within his control.

Given his capabilities, it would not be difficult for him to charge into the Earth Ranking!
