Ye Mo’s eyes flickered repeatedly as he watched Hong Ling’s demonstration of Blood Spear. And thus, an exquisite and remarkable spear technique was imprinted onto his brain. Only after witnessing this spear technique did Ye Mo understood what a truly powerful spear technique was like. All the spear techniques he had practiced in the past were too weak in comparison. Ye Mo believed that if he could master this spear technique, coupled with his comprehension, he would be able to reach brand new heights with this technique. With this spear technique, he could defeat any genius, defeating all opponents he met on his journey for the Luosha Token.
Whoosh!
He flashed out the room through the window and started looking for a spacious area outside the city. After deciding on a location, he took out the Sky Blood Pearl and stabbed on it with the Sky Blood Spear. Immediately, a crimson radiance erupted from the spearhead. That was Hong Ling activating her own Blood Qi to establish a connection with the Sky Blood Pearl. Next, the pearl hovered in the air while a terrifying cloud of Blood Qi started spreading out, filling the entire area with red. The pearl hovered midair and shone like a crimson sun. The moment Ye Mo activated the spear technique, Blood Qi rolled out of the pearl. At the same time, the spearhead was also emanating a thick Blood Qi. With the combination of the two, the area was turned into a crimson land.
From afar, the area looked like it was flooded with blood mist that was so thick Ye Mo wasn’t even visible. This was the Blood Spear created by Sky Blood Lady. Thus, cultivating in an environment rich with Blood Qi emanating from Sky Blood Pearl was the optimal method of increasing the cultivation speed.
“Engulfing Spear light!” Again, Ye Mo activated the spear technique, turning the spear light he sent out into a crimson tornado that pulled in all the Blood Qi in its surroundings. As the tornado pulled in all the Blood Qi, the Blood Qi emanating from the pearl and the spear and even the natural Blood Qi in the air transformed into appearances of numerous vicious ghosts that all rained down on the ground.
What exactly was Blood Qi? Every time someone was killed, Blood Qi would be created. Some were very thin and were unclear, but since in the whole wide world, countless people had died, there were many Blood Qi in the air. These strains of natural Blood Qi were even more powerful.
“Realm of Death!” The spear light tornado created by Ye Mo was like a black hole that hungrily devoured all the Blood Qi in the area. Instantly, the entire area transformed into some sort of paradise teeming with life as the Blood Qi had been removed from the area. With Ye Mo’s devouring power, the spiritual energies in the air were pulled in as well. They entered the spear light and started strengthening and refining the Blood Qi within as well.
At present, Ye Mo was trying to comprehend the Realm of Death, part of the Blood Spear.
With Ye Mo’s talent and the help of the Sky Blood Pearl, Ye Mo could quickly comprehend the Blood Spear. But he wanted to reach a level where he could comprehend a spear will with the spear technique, to reach a point where he could sense the natural Blood Qi in the world around him, and to establish a connection between his Heart Minion and the natural Blood Qi so he could draw upon their power at any time. When he reached the highest level of comprehension, he might be able to even come out with various killing techniques based around the Will of Death.
Swish!
While Ye Mo was comprehending the Realm of Death, he sensed the Bright Dragon Power within him pouring into the spear light. The spear light twisted, turned, and started spinning, displaying the Sky Blood Cycle technique before transforming into the “battle” word. After shaking for a bit, the spear light whizzed through the air, creating rumbling sounds akin to the fury of a Thunder God. It streaked across the sky and reached the clouds. Next, a crimson mist started spreading in the air before various terrifying projections started appearing midair.
A primordial beast was killed with a single move by a Fiendgod, a powerful ancient expert was punched into smithereens by a massive beast of desolation, and Ye Mo even saw the scene of an incomparably powerful Transcendence Realm expert in the midst of unleashing his prowess being stamped to death by his opponent with a single step.
Scene after scene appeared. All of them depicted the battles of ancient experts. Although these were mere projections, they were still able to cause a great shock in Ye Mo’s heart. If his cultivation heart had not reached the fourfold spear light level, he might even have lost his mind right here. Even just witnessing these projections, Ye Mo was subjected to great pressure. These were all scenes of mighty experts from the distant past dying. One could say that the Blood Qi Ye Mo had absorbed was an amalgamation of the deaths of these ancient experts.
Whoosh!
Finally, the projections warped and shattered into pieces, while the Blood Qi dissipated into nothingness. The current Ye Mo was already capable of easily reaching the Realm of Death stage with his Blood Spearlight. With that, he would be able to start absorbing the natural Blood Qi, creating an incomparably powerful spear light. And in the future when Ye Mo grew in cultivation and strength, he could even transform the natural Blood Qi into his power like the Sky Blood Lady. But the present him was still incapable of that.
In fact, this Blood Power was a representative of death. Thus, it had been quite easy for Ye Mo to fuse the Will of Blood with Will of Slaughter. But if Ye Mo wanted to truly transform the Blood Power into his power like the Dragon Power, there would be a contradiction with the Glorious Sun Power. After all, one represented death while the other represented life and divine. The two powers were extreme opposites of each other. It was nearly impossible to fuse the two.
But after witnessing Zi Yi’s fusion of ice and fire, Ye Mo had the confidence he could also fuse death and life.
The current Ye Mo could easily kill a Heaven’s Strength Realm expert with his spear light after reaching the Realm of Death. The Realm of Death was even more powerful than Will of Blood, and if an ordinary person was trapped inside, that person would instantly mentally collapse.
This was why Ye Mo did not dare to practice within Luosha City. The effect would be too conspicuous.
Ye Mo smiled in satisfaction. He was finally confident of obtaining a Luosha Token. Even without unleashing the spirituality of the Sky Blood Spear, he could still defeat Heaven’s Strength Realm experts with his Blood Spear and Realm of Death.
After two hours, Ye Mo returned to the tavern and found that Zi Yi was not there.
“Where has she gone?” Ye Mo wondered. The autumn examination was starting soon. She was not supposed to be leaving now.
Ye Mo immediately looked for the shopkeeper and asked about Zi Yi. “The woman in purple with you has been taken away by the Luosha Guards,” said the shopkeeper.
“Taken?” Ye Mo was alarmed.
“Yes, a lot of people were around. The person leading the guards seemed to be the leader of a Luosha Sub-Palace. They were very polite towards the woman and were calling her the first woman to have fully absorbed the power of a Luosha Blood Pool,” explained the shopkeeper.
Ye Mo frowned as he left the tavern. Those people must have taken Zi Yi away because they thought she was the one who fully devoured the energy in the pool.
Swish!
From the top of the tavern, three people jumped down. All three were men and each looked extraordinary. They all emanated a powerful presence and were dressed in the Luosha Academy uniform. On their chests, they each wore a badge with the word “Elite” written on it, showing that these were the elite students of the academy.
When the three appeared, the crowd hastily moved away, leaving Ye Mo standing there alone.
“Are you the person who injured the students of our Luosha Academy? Which city are you from? You are too audacious. The crown prince Luo Hun has spoken. According to him, beating a student of Luosha Academy is the same as beating him. Submit and follow us back obediently or we will kill you where you stand,” said one of them coldly, his voice filled with disdain and killing intent.
