ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR - SEASON 9 EPISODE 53

250 kilometers!

Most mid-level fiend demons could not even reach that range.

But now, at the Thousand Demon Meet, there was a low-level fiend demon whose spirit consciousness could extend beyond 250 kilometers.

Furthermore, it was still extending!

The demons were no longer surprised – they were shocked!

“This is truly unimaginable. What is his true form? How is he this strong?!”

“The young master of Levitating Goat Peak is definitely going to lose this gambit.”

“That’s not for sure. The strength of a spirit consciousness will definitely weaken beyond 250 kilometers. We don’t know if he can locate a Blood Sea Badge yet.”

The logic was the same as one’s eyesight.

The closer something is, the clearer one will be able to see it.

The further, the blurrier and it would also be comparatively harder to locate something.

For fiend demons that took part in the first trial, their spirit consciousnesses could naturally extend beyond 250 kilometers. Otherwise, there would be no need for them to waste their time participating.

However, more than half of them found that their senses were extremely dull beyond 250 kilometers!

They could not even sense what was beyond 250 kilometers, let alone locate something.

Although this trial seemed simple, there were actually two aspects being tested.

First was the range of one’s spirit consciousness. Second, it was testing the refinement of one’s spirit consciousness!

The more refined one’s Essence Spirit was, the clearer they would be able to sense the surroundings around their spirit consciousnesses!

Su Zimo’s scarlet-haired Yin Spirit cultivated the Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and was refined using the spirit refinement technique of the Great Desolate Dragon King.

How could any demon’s Essence Spirit be more refined than his!

Even his black-haired Essence Spirit was refined using two heaven-grade cultivation techniques of the immortal and Buddhist Daos.

With the help of the Creation Green Lotus, it was pure and refined and could be compared to the scarlet-haired Yin Spirit as well!

That was the reason why Su Zimo could still sense the surroundings and even the temperature and wind with his spirit consciousness clearly even after 250 kilometers.

Everything it saw was reflected within his mind!

He could even sense the ants and worms crawling in the mud!

Su Zimo was in no rush.

With his spirit consciousness, he could even uncover Blood Sea Badges that were buried three feet beneath the ground!

Right now, he was pondering about something that happened earlier.

The moment he released his spirit consciousness, he could clearly sense a powerful gaze penetrating the barrier of the Mingwang Prayer Beads into his consciousness!

That alarmed him.

Of course, Su Zimo had been extremely cautious after he arrived at this place and had hidden the black-haired Essence Spirit a long time ago.

The Creation Lotus Platform hovered in a corner and its petals were closed like a bud.

The black-haired Essence Spirit was hidden within!

That was the reason why the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley could only detect the existence of the scarlet-haired Yin Spirit – he did not know that there was another Essence Spirit within Su Zimo’s consciousness!

The scarlet-haired Yin Spirit sensed the penetration of the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley’s gaze right away.

As though it was triggered, the scarlet-haired Yin Spirit’s eyes bolted open with a bright light. Instantly, scarlet dragon scales that seemed like they were blazing with flames appeared one after another on his body and he exuded a might of a lord that looked down on the world!

Demon beasts had a strong sense of territory possession.

The Dragon race was the most particular about that!

The scarlet-haired Yin Spirit cultivated the spirit refinement technique of the Great Desolate Dragon King and was no different from a Dragon himself. The probe from the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley had enraged it completely!

This was the might of the Dragon race!

It was impossible for ordinary demon beasts to resist!

Although the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley cultivated a secret skill such that his gaze was able to penetrate the obstruction of the Mingwang Prayer Beads, his strength was weakened by the time he barged into Su Zimo’s consciousness.

His gaze dissipated the moment it made contact with the scarlet-haired Yin Spirit’s gaze!

That was the reason why the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley did not manage to see Su Zimo’s true form at the end as well. The aura released by the scarlet-haired Yin Spirit alone was enough to give him shudders!

To all the demons present, this was only an ordinary competition between spirit consciousnesses.

However, nobody would have thought that right at the beginning, Su Zimo had already engaged in an exchange of sorts against an Overlord!

The entire process was fleeting and silent but it was extremely dangerous!

Su Zimo could not guarantee that the Overlord of Vermilion Cloud Valley would not attack him if his black-haired Essence Spirit was exposed.

However, he knew that the Overlord of Silvermoon Valley and the others would definitely not let him off!

“Hahaha! I found it!”

Right then, the laughter of a fiend demon interrupted Su Zimo’s thoughts.

It was a fiend demon from Golden Flames Mountain. His spirit consciousness had just extended beyond 250 kilometers when he located a Blood Sea Badge on a grass plain.

Apart from the refinement level of one’s Essence Spirit, luck was also involved as to whether one could locate a Blood Sea Badge.

Some of the Blood Sea Badges were located on the surface, casually tossed on grass plains or atop rocks.

Some of the Blood Sea Badges were hidden deeper.

That was the reason why it was harder to locate Blood Sea Badges the longer things dragged.

After all, most fiend demons would locate the Blood Sea Badges that were placed on the surfaces.

The expression of the young master of Levitating Goat Peak turned grim.

He was already brooding the moment he sensed Su Zimo’s spirit consciousness extending beyond 250 kilometers.

It was likely that he had lost this gambit.

However, he felt that it was not a wrongful defeat.

Who could have expected a low-level fiend demon’s spirit consciousness to extend to such a frightening range?

‘If I lose, so be it!’

The young master of Levitating Goat Peak scoffed coldly in his mind, ‘All I have to do is eat a Blood Sea Badge, it doesn’t matter!’

Before long, the young master of Levitating Goat Peak located a Blood Sea Badge on a tree branch. His spirit consciousness latched onto the badge and reined it in swiftly.

During this short period of time, almost half of the fiend demons have located Blood Sea Badges.

The fiend demons were extremely excited.

After he reined his spirit consciousness in, the young master of Levitating Goat Peak swept his gaze around.

He saw a Blood Sea Badge in Su Zimo’s hand – the latter was even faster than him.

It was clear that he had lost this gambit.

“Interesting, the young master of Levitating Goat Peak has to eat that badge now.”

“Fufu, I wonder what a Blood Sea Badge tastes like.”

The young master of Levitating Goat Peak harrumphed coldly with an ashen expression when he heard the discussions.

“Mo, this is your victory!”

He had a dark gaze as he glared at Su Zimo and said coldly, “But wait and see!”

After he said that, he noticed that Su Zimo’s eyes were still closed; the latter seemed to be in deep thought and had not heard him.

“Humph, what are you acting for?”

The young master of Levitating Goat Peak pouted his lips. “Stop giving off the pretense of wisdom!”

Right then, a few more fiend demons found Blood Sea Badges. However, they had strange expressions when they recalled their spirit consciousnesses.

All of them turned to look at Su Zimo who was silent at the side with shocked expressions!

The young master of Levitating Goat Peak had recalled his spirit consciousness a long time ago after locating a Blood Sea Badge and naturally could not sense it.

However, their spirit consciousnesses could clearly sense an extremely powerful spirit consciousness searching wildly beyond 250 kilometers!

It was sweeping through all the Blood Sea Badges beyond 250 kilometers!

Be it those buried underground or hidden within tree trunks, this spirit consciousness found and collected them before continuing to search!

By the time those fiend demons recalled their spirit consciousnesses, that powerful spirit consciousness had already collected more than a hundred Blood Sea Badges!

“What is Mo trying to do?”

The fiend demons were dumbfounded.

They sneaked a glance at the young master of Levitating Goat Peak and a possibility crossed their minds but they could not believe it.

At the front of Ape Chatter Ridge’s faction.

Yuan Ling’er’s spirit consciousness moved and she was stupefied when she caught sight of that.

Before long, as though she thought of something, Yuan Ling’er let out a stifled chuckle.

“What’s wrong?”

Monkey and the others could not see what was happening beyond 250 kilometers with their spirit consciousnesses and could not help but ask.

“That young master is in for it now,”

Yuan Ling’er controlled her amusement and replied, “How should I put it… your First is truly savage!”
