Chapter 2358: Gongsun Jia’s Help

As he drew closer to the peak of the mountain, the pressure on Gu Jianshan increased. Every step he took, his body would shake violently.

However, Gu Jianshan’s talents and combat strength were strong enough and he could temporarily withstand the pressure.

He calmed himself down and cleared his mind as he prepared to advance forward again.

Below him, Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu were battling Su Mo and Han Sheng.

The two of them were much stronger than Su Mo and Han Sheng and they looked like death gods out for Su Mo and Han Sheng.

“Qin Yun, retreat!”

Han Sheng ordered Su Mo. Under the current circumstances, there was no way for them to go against Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu.

“I will give you a breath of time to consider. Get down yourself or be forced down by me!” Tuoba Liuming shouted angrily.

“Get down? I believe you must be dreaming!” Su Mo coldly uttered. He was not afraid of Tuoba Liuming and he ignored Han Sheng.

As he spoke, he quickly refined the Illusion Primordial Spirit. Although this Primordial Spirit was strong in Illusion Arts, it was ranked twelfth Primordial Spirit on the Archean Martial Soul Board and it was even stronger than the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit.

If he managed to take control of the Primordial Spirit, Su Mo’s strength would increase sharply.

“Qin Yun!” Han Sheng shouted again. How could that man be so stubborn? They were clearly in a losing spot but he was still stubborn.

“If you want to retreat, you must go down yourself!” Su Mo shouted in a deep voice. He did not need to link forces with Han Sheng.

After all, he had the Chaotic Immortal Body. Even if Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu joined forces, they would not be able to kill him. At the very most, they could only force him backward.

“This…!!” Han Sheng was at a loss for words and he had to hold back a few curse words. He knew that Su Mo was strong, at only a Rank 2 Realm. To be able to stand his ground against Tuoba Liuming proved his worth.

However, despite how strong he was, there was no way for him to defeat Tuoba Liuming.

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Tuoba Liuming burst into laughter and his face was filled with mockery as he jeered, “Qin Yun, Qin Yun, I want to see just how exceptional you are.”

With that, Tuoba Liuming attacked again. Drawing his sword through the sky, he prepared an attack for Su Mo.

This sword strike was stronger than the previous one. Its power was an exponential increase from before. As the broad Sword Qi flew across the sky, it was like a destructive wave that destroyed the Empty Space.

“You are not strong enough!”

Su Mo’s face was cold and he immediately raised his sword to block the attack. Sword Radiance flashed and he released a Chaotic Rotating Sword.

However, the power of the Chaotic Rotating Sword increased sharply. That was because he was a few more feet away from the peak of the mountain, it was also due to the Illusion Primordial Spirit.

Su Mo had managed to refine the Illusion Primordial Spirit and as he activated it, his combat strength surged.

However, the Illusory Primordial Spirit had a strange ability that was entirely different from his previous Dream Realm Primordial Spirit.

Yet, since it had just been refined, Su Mo could not figure out this special ability fully.

Kaboom!!

A loud explosion erupted as the Chaotic Rotating Sword struck against Tuoba Liuming’s attack. The sky shook with terror, causing shockwaves to sweep out in all directions.

Step! Step! Step!

Su Mo took a few involuntary steps backward. Despite the increase in his combat strength, he was still not a match for Tuoba Liuming.

Although Su Mo was evidently weaker than Tuoba LIuming, he shocked many people.

Yun Mu, Han Sheng and Gongsun Jia, in addition to the spectators below, were stunned.

The exceptional combat strength was shocking. After all, the difference in cultivation ranks between a Rank 2 and Rank 4 could not be matched with any simple thing.

Granted, since Tuoba Liuming was much closer to the peak of the Sword Mountain than Su Mo, the pressure he withstood was much higher.

Nevertheless, many people were surprised by Su Mo’s combat strength.

“How could this be?” Tuoba Liuming’s face was as dark as the night sky. He was absolutely enraged than he couldn’t defeat Su Mo even after three tries.

A mere martial artist that had such a low cultivation rank had such strong combat power and it made Tuoba Liuming angry.

“Brother Tuoba, if you are going to waste your time here, Brother Gu is going to reach the top of the mountain!”

At that point, Gongsun Jia informed Tuoba Liuming as he arrived behind Su Mo.

Upon hearing Gongsun Jia’s words, Tuoba Liuming turned towards Gu Jianshan and was shocked to find that Gu Jianshan was only eighty feet from the peak.

Tuoba Liuming immediatley frowned. He wanted to get rid of Su Mo, but Su Mo was strong and it seemed that he wouldn’t be able to finish the deed quickly.

“How about this, Brother Tuoba. There is Yun Mu, Han Sheng and Qin Yun, whoever reaches the top will be with their own talents?” Gongsun Jia smiled as he tried to reconcile matters.

He didn’t want the group to fight amongst themselves as it would make things hard for him to reach the top as well.

“Gongsun Jia, do you think the disciples of Ultimate Supreme Being Palace will allow us to reach the peak?” Yun Mu scoffed. It was acceptable if Gongsun Jia wasn’t going to help them, but she would not tolerate it if Gongsun Jia was going to help Qin Yun.

“Yun Mu, we can all enter the region a hundred feet from the peak. With Han Sheng and Qin Yun, their threat posed to you would be insignificant anyway!” Gongsun Jia proposed.

Yun Mu fell silent upon hearing Gongsun Jia’s words. If that was the case, the threat to them would indeed be reduced.

After all, everyone within a hundred feet from the mountain would be under a lot of pressure. There was no way for anyone to sneak an attack on anyone then.

Granted, this didn’t mean that there would be no danger. If Su Mo and Han Sheng retreated out of the hundred foot boundary and attacked them, they would be at a huge risk.

“The two of them must leave Sword Mountain!”

Tuoba Liuming remained reluctant and coldly declared. Not only did he want to kick Qin yun and han Sheng off the mountain, he wanted to severely injure the two. This would thoroughly ensure his safety.

He could only be without worry if the two people were heavily injured and got kicked out of the area.

As for Gu Jianshan above him, even if another ten hours passed, there was no way for Gu Jianshan to reach the peak.

“Brother Tuoba, you…!” Gongsun Jia was about to speak but all of a sudden, he was cut short by Su Mo.

“Brother Gongsun, don’t bother wasting your words. Reaching the peak of Sword Mountain is not based on luck!” Su Mo said. His attitude was shown in his words.

One had to rely on their real strength. If he couldn’t defend himself against Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu, there would be no way for him to reach the top.

With that, Su Mo turned towards Han Shane and said, “Brother Han, if they want to chase us away, we will settle things with them in a battle!”

Su Mo’s face was hard but it did not show any signs of fear.

He was not afraid of Tuoba Liuming or Yun Mu. He had the Immortal Chaotic Body and he had a way out.

Furthermore, his cultivation rank had reached the Upper Rank 2 Realm, and after the tough trail on Sword Mountain, he might be able to break through like Gongsun Jia.

“Brother Qin is brave and I admire you for that!” Han Sheng cupped his fists towards Su Mo and he admired Su Mo.

With that, he stared at Yun Mu and Tuoba Liuming and yelled, “since the two of you want to battle, Qin Yun and I will not fear you!”

Han Sheng was fully determined. Since Tuoba Liuming was so outright in chasing them off, he would not shrink further into his shell.

He would face the battle head on. Even if he lost, there was nothing much for him to lose.

“Overestimating yourself!” Tuoba Liuming coldly scoffed as his eyes focused on Su Mo again, a sharp glare crossing through them.

“Han Sheng, three moves are enough to settle you!” Yun Mu stared at Han Sheng and declared.

Since Tuoba Liuming was determined to battle, she would not hesitate and would take the chance to get rid of her enemies once and for all.

Previously, she had kept back some of her strength but since they were going to battle for real, she would not hold back.

“Brother Tuoba, since you are so determined, don’t blame me!” Gongsun Jia stepped out and stood beside Su Mo.

He was strong as well and he puffed up his chest with confidence. It was evident that he was going to join forces with Su Mo.

Su Mo was surprised by Gongsun Jia’s actions as he had not expected Gongsun Jia to help him.

“You are going to help him?” Tuoba Liuming’s face darkened. Gongsun Jia was ridiculous. There was no reason for Gongsun Jia to help Qin Yun.

“Gongsun Jia, you are making a mistake!” Yun Mu’s expression also turned cold and she frowned deeply.
