High Martial Arts: First day of dropping out of school, reward: Devouring the Emperor's Body

Li Mo had long heard about the Sumeru Secret Realm.

It is said that the spiritual energy within this secret realm is several times greater than that of Earth today.

In fact, since the revival of spiritual energy, the Earth, which originally had a thin spiritual energy, has become quite abundant, which is why one after another martial god with the power to destroy the world has been created.

However, the spiritual energy within the Sumeru Secret Realm is several times that of Earth today!

Such a high concentration of spiritual energy will naturally accelerate a person's cultivation speed.

More importantly, its magic lies not only in this.

Because Chen Han is a powerful figure above the Martial God level, and is said to have mastered the power of spacetime, the flow of time in this Sumeru Secret Realm is different from that in the outside world.

One day in the Sumeru World is equivalent to two months in the outside world!

However, the amount of cultivation done in one day is equivalent to two months of cultivation time in the outside world!

This place, which was originally so abnormal, could theoretically allow the entire population of the Great Xia Dynasty to ascend to immortality!

pity……

At this moment, Li Mo said to Zhao Zhenyuan, "Marshal Zhao, didn't this Sumeru Secret Realm collapse after Marshal Chen Han disappeared?"

Zhao Zhenyuan smiled and said, "That's what we tell the outside world. What if I told you that this secret realm has never collapsed and is still being used by people?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mo's expression immediately changed.

There is such a place, which, theoretically, would have been available to the entire population, and the Black Earth Tribe and the White European Empire would have been crushed by the Great Xia long ago.

The number of Martial God-level experts in the Great Xia Dynasty would probably be more than ten times the current number!

Seeing Li Mo's expression, Zhao Zhenyuan had already guessed what he was thinking, so he explained, "I know what you're thinking. When I first learned about the existence of the Sumeru Secret Realm, my thoughts were similar to yours, but the actual situation was completely different!"

Zhao Zhenyuan told Li Mo that although the Sumeru Secret Realm did not collapse after Chen Han disappeared, it would still need to rely on the power of the Martial God to maintain its existence.

And it's not just the power of one or two martial gods.

It can be said that at least ten or more martial gods would be needed to keep it from collapsing.

Furthermore, the more people there are within the secret realm, the more power is consumed.

According to rough estimates, in order for the Sumeru Secret Realm to not collapse, a maximum of about one hundred people can enter it!

People are not worried about scarcity but about inequality. If the existence of the Sumeru Secret Realm were made public, not only would these 100 spots be fiercely contested, but it would also cause dissatisfaction among those who did not get in.

Therefore, those who use the Sumeru Secret Realm for cultivation are basically descendants of the martial god families who maintain the Sumeru Secret Realm from collapsing.

Furthermore, the military and various martial arts universities can periodically select individuals to train within them.

However, this cultivation also has time limits.

It usually takes about a few days!

Even a few days can be equivalent to months or even years in the outside world. Moreover, since it is a secret realm opened up by an unparalleled powerhouse like Chen Han, cultivators can also gain a lot of inspiration from it.

Therefore, the military and top martial arts academies treat these spots as treasures and rarely give them out.

Li Mo immediately understood Zhao Zhenyuan's meaning: "You mean you want me to go to that Sumeru Secret Realm to cultivate?"

"Not only you, but also Xu Feng and Zheng Jiahao, the three of you new recruits have completed such a difficult mission. Your achievements fully deserve this honor! This wasn't just my decision; most of the higher-ups in the military also agreed to this as a reward for you!"

Li Mo was very surprised. He could sense that this spot must be extremely valuable. The Great Xia army had hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and countless people wanted this spot.

While it was certainly a great achievement for him to uncover the spy from Starry Sky University, it shouldn't warrant such a high reward.

So Li Mo said, "Marshal, such a reward is far too great. I'm afraid the brothers in the army will gossip about it."

Seeing Li Mo's words, Zhao Zhenyuan admired Li Mo even more.

He laughed and said, "Don't worry, this Sumeru Secret Realm isn't as magical as you think. Although the spiritual energy inside is abundant, once you reach a higher realm, such as the Four Symbols Realm, cultivating inside is almost the same as cultivating outside!"

"Besides, this isn't just a reward; there are conditions! After you finish your training, I have a mission for you—a military mission, a real combat mission! You'll be going to the battlefield! Unlike at Starry Sky University, no one here will recognize the Iron Blood Token, and no one will be secretly protecting you!"

Li Mo hadn't thought much of it at first, but his eyes lit up when he heard about the combat mission.

The young soldiers were eager to make a name for themselves!

Since you've become a soldier, what could be more exciting than going into battle and killing the enemy?

Most importantly, only by going to the battlefield can Li Mo obtain Devouring Points and further strengthen himself!

Thinking of this, Li Mo stopped being modest and immediately saluted, saying, "Marshal, I am willing to accept all your arrangements!"

Zhao Zhenyuan nodded in satisfaction, then said, "That's more like Li Le's son! Let Xu Feng and Zheng Jiahao in."

……

Then, the three were formally granted titles in front of Zhao Zhenyuan.

"Li Mo, captain of the Tiger Legion's Silent Whisper Squad; Zheng Jiahao and Xu Feng, team members, listen to my command!"

"For your meritorious service in investigating enemy traitors, the three of you are hereby awarded the following honors: Captain Li Mo is hereby awarded the Third-Class Merit and promoted to Second Lieutenant; Team Member Zheng Jiahao is hereby awarded the Third-Class Merit and promoted to Sergeant First Class; Team Member Xu Feng is hereby awarded the Third-Class Merit and promoted to Sergeant; and the three of you are hereby awarded the Second-Class Merit collectively, in recognition of your merits throughout the army!"

Li Mo, Zheng Jiahao, and Xu Feng all received promotions.

Even Li Mo's military rank is now exactly the same as that of Company Commander Zhang Ruxue.

Li Mo has only been in the army for four months, making him probably the fastest-rising soldier in military history!

In addition to the promotion in rank, the subsequent rewards are also extremely generous.

For example, the cultivation rights to the Sumeru Secret Realm that Zhao Zhenyuan had previously promised meant that the three of them could cultivate in the Sumeru Illusionary Realm for three days, which would be equivalent to a full six months in the outside world!

There are also a large number of Qi and Blood-nourishing medicines!

"The army never fails to reward those who work diligently. Keep up the good work, you three!"

Zhao Zhenyuan personally pinned the military medals on the three men.

"Thank you, Marshal!"

The three of them were thinking the same thing: if they had known the army's rewards were so generous, why would they have bothered going to that damn martial arts university!

As for Li Mo himself, he is now even more looking forward to the actual combat mission that Zhao Zhenyuan mentioned.

But before that, he must complete his cultivation.

The entrance to the Sumeru Secret Realm is on the sea, because Chen Han lost the Sumeru Secret Realm over the Pacific Ocean during his last disappearance.

The secret realm opened by the peak of Martial God is impossible for anyone to move without the person controlling it, let alone Chen Han, who is the only expert above Martial God.

The martial gods of Great Xia had already expended a great deal of effort to keep the secret realm from collapsing, let alone move it.

Therefore, Li Mo and his two companions had to take a boat to the entrance of the Sumeru Secret Realm.
