Chapter 1249: Heaven’s Favored One, Really?

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

In an instant, Su Mo had lapsed into complete hopelessness.

As he saw the enormous saber shadow come down on him, he had no other choice but to use his trump card.

“Buzz—”

Suddenly, Su Mo’s body began to emit a glaring white light. The light was so dazzling that the entire battle field was illuminated.

His entire body was encapsulated in a brilliant light and it looked like the shining sun. It was a magnificent sight.

Not only that, an even bigger blazing sun had appeared behind him. This circle of light and his body worked complementing each other.

Not only had Su Mo mobilized the Divine Sun Body, he had also summoned the Sun Martial Soul.

Earlier on, when his Divine Sun Body had enabled him to kill and completely devour Shangguan Hao, Su Mo had taken over the man’s Godly Body and was greatly strengthened.

Unfortunately, Su Mo had not cultivated any technique to combine these Godly Bodies, so he was unable to optimize the full power of the Divine Sun Body.

Despite this, the Divine Sun Body was still extremely powerful. It would become progressively more powerful as he advanced in his cultivation.

After Su Mo had mobilized the Divine Sun Body and the Sun Martial Soul, the temperature rose alarmingly after an emission of brilliant light.

Every substance in the heavens and the earth started to melt under its shine.

The powerful Sun Realm covered the few thousand kilometers around Su Mo’s body.

Within the 500-kilometer space, everything had incinerated into nothing. The sea water evaporated and became water vapor, leaving the sea bed exposed.

The constraint on Su Mo’s body was greatly weakened by this terrific heat.

Affected by the Sun Realm, the enormous sword shadow began to give off puffs of white smoke.

Nevertheless, the saber shadow was so powerful that despite its reduced strength, it continued to slash at Su Mo’s head.

“Shatter it!”

Su Mo let out a cry. He moved forward instead of retreating. Holding the sword in both his hands, he ascended into the air and brandished his sword at the enormous saber shadow.

The Dark Force in his body was like a long, great river. Utilizing the Divine Sun Body and Sun Martial Soul, Su Mo’s aura was so powerful that it was second to none.

“Swoosh!”

The sword radiance rose up to block the saber and collided with its saber shadow in an instant.

“Boom!”

A loud explosion shook the heavens and the earth. The enormous saber shadow disintegrated after it was hit by Su Mo’s sword.

“Swish!”

Su Mo was hit by a strong reaction and began to fall. He eventually arrested his fall after a drop of ten thousand kilometers.

“Phew!”

Su Mo finally let out a sigh of relief. The blood in his body was boiling and he felt sore all over his body. He had almost sustained internal injuries due to the impact.

However, his eyes were still shining bright. Lvl 3 Martial Emperor Realm was still quite strong, wasn’t it? Su Mo was now completely confident that he would win, because he still had many trump cards.

“How could this... have happened?”

Standing high in the sky, Leng Jiang was struck dumb. His eyes were wide open and he could not believe what he was seeing.

He was not bothered by Su Mo’s Sun Martial Soul. How special it was depended on its level.

What shocked him was Su Mo’s exceptional physical constitution.

It was completely out of his expectation.

The entire battle field became silent. The only audible sound was that of distant breaking waves.

After a pause, gasps were heard from the dozen islands.

“My god! This Su Mo actually possesses such an exceptional physical constitution!”

“Unbelievable! He actually possesses the unique constitution of a demon!”

“What kind of body is this? A Blazing Sun Body? Or a Divine Sun Body? Or a Nine-sun Body?”

“This is awesome! No wonder he dared to take on Leng Jiang with his level of cultivation. He has a trump card!”

All the people were shocked. Such exceptional physical constitution meant that he was Heaven’s favored one, God’s favored son.

There were fewer than 10 disciples in the entire Shenwu Academy who had such an exceptional physical constitution. One could imagine the immense impact on the audience when they witnessed this kind of constitution.

Nie Qian and Han Ying’s jaws opened wide. They were completely stunned.

Their thoughts were almost frozen by the shock. They would never have imagined that Su Mo was a genius who possessed such an exceptional physical constitution.

Mu Li and Taishi Xuan were equally stunned. Mu Li was especially shaken. Her shock was comparable to that of Han Ying and Nie Qian.

Su Mo possessed extraordinary willpower, his talent in craftsmanship was outstanding and he also had the physical constitution of a martial arts demon! It was all beyond her imagination!

Was Su Mo really Heaven’s Favored One?

“Swish!”

Su Mo leaped high into the air and came face to face with Leng Jiang.

“Leng Jiang, show us what you can do!” Su Mo said in a relaxed tone.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Leng Jiang’s face fell. It dawned upon him that it might be an uphill task to kill Su Mo today.

There was bound to be someone who preferred Su Mo not to die because of his talents.

He was a member of the Chixia Caves. Other sects would certainly try to recruit Su Mo as well.

“What kind of physical constitution is yours?” Leng Jiang asked severely.

“A Divine Sun Body!” Su Mo responded, even though he himself did not fully understand Godly Bodies. Shangguan Hao had merely said that his physical constitution was a Divine Sun Body and he believed his words.

“Divine Sun Body?” Leng Jiang appeared doubtful.

There were a thousand types of special physical constitutions listed on the Ancient Special Bodies Board. The Divine Sun Body was ranked 762nd.

Only when the spectators heard these words did they realize that Su Mo possessed a Divine Sun Body.

Although this physical constitution was very powerful, it was still a far cry from a Nine-sun Body or a Blazing-sun Body.

“Since you are hesitating, I’m going to strike first!” Su Mo sneered when he saw Leng Jiang remain still.

Buzz!

In the next instant, the long sword in his hand began vibrating with a buzzing sound. The Dark Force within the sword had risen to an unimaginable level.

“Grand Firmament Swordplay—Sun Moon Switch!”

With a roar, Su Mo brandished the long sword in his hand. Immediately, a ten-thousand kilometer long sword Qi assaulted Leng Jiang.

Su Mo had secretly mobilized all the powerful Sword Martial Souls within his body, so that this attack was even more spectacularly powerful.

“Swoosh!”

The profound and mysterious three-thousand-meter sword Qi tore through the sky. The heavens and the earth, as well as the sun and the moon, seemed to have switched positions.

“You are still going to be defeated despite having a Godly Body!” Leng Jiang bellowed with rage, now even more resolved to destroy Su Mo.

A prestigious Lvl 3 Martial Emperor, he would be utterly humiliated if he failed to defeat Su Mo.

From behind him, a brilliant light soared upward. A one-meter-long golden saber appeared.

This was Leng Jiang’s Fighting Soul—a Golden Saber Fighting Soul!

The moment his Fighting Soul appeared, the power of Leng Jiang’s saber increased tremendously. It shot into the sky and spread far away in all directions.

The air was ripped apart by the saber radiance. A terrifying ten-thousand-meter rift appeared.

“Break!”

Holding tightly to his saber in two hands, Leng Jiang communicated with the power of his Fighting Soul before slashing the saber out with a horizontal strike.

This was the second move of Heaven-ensnaring Technique.

An enormous saber shadow appeared once again—like a saber from heaven wielded across the skies, filled with invincible power.

Having mobilized his Fighting Soul, this attack of Leng Jiang was 50% more powerful than his first move, when he had executed the Heaven-ensnaring Technique.

In the twinkling of an eye, the saber shadow sweeping across the sky collided with the sword Qi.

Roar!

An explosion, and the thousand-feet long sword Qi shattered instantly. A shower of swords flew out in all directions.

The force from the saber shadow was so powerful that it was like a divine saber. It remained powerful after sundering ten thousand sword Qis, continuing to soar toward Su Mo.
