Kid, looks like I have underestimated you. You were surprisingly unaffected by my Sky Blood Spear Spirit, but do you think you can break through my defence?
The Skylight Lord was surprised initially before laughing coldly.
You must’ve learned some spiritual powers to see the weakness in my Sky Blood Spear Spirit, but unfortunately, the power difference between you and I is way too big.
A blood-red True Energy Shield formed around him. This shield could not be broken by an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm fighter, let alone someone who had yet to reach the Energy Shaping Realm.
Haha, you are doomed!
Ye Mo saw that the Skylight Lord was actually confident enough to allow him to attack. He let out a loud scream and charged towards the True Energy Shield with his long spear.
Boom!
The True Energy Shield was completely unharmed by the spear attack, as was the Skylight Lord.
Rising Dragon Pillar, absorb!
A black spiral appeared in his Energy Center again, as a devastating amount of absorption power reached towards the long spear, and ripples began to form on the surface of the impenetrable blood-red True Energy Shield, like a pebble breaking across the surface of a peaceful lake. The shield slowly began to disintegrate.
Roar!
Above the Rising Dragon Pillar were rows of glowing eyes. Absorbing the True Energy from a True Energy Realm fighter, the power in Ye Mo’s body depleted continuously. Rays of Dragon Power awakened, as another 10 Black Giant Dragons escaped the restraints of the Rising Dragon Pillar, flying out and attacking the Five Main Gates.
Ye Mo’s power exploded to another level, now awakening 110 rays of Dragon Power in his body as he reached a Tier One Entrance–a Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm with actual power levels of an Energy Shaping Third Realm. If he had the Sky Blood Spear with him, he would have been confident enough to challenge even Energy Shaping Fourth Realm fighters.
The Rising Dragon Pillar absorbed the energy of the True Energy Shield, weakening it. Ye Mo stabbed through the shield with his long spear with lightning speed, piercing through the shield and into his body.
Roar!
The Skylight Lord was extremely furious. He did not expect Ye Mo to be able to absorb his True Energy. With a deafening roar, he shook the heavens and earth, changing the colour of the sky. The helmet and armor on Ye Mo’s head and body were immediately destroyed, revealing a rather delicate face.
The roar shook Ye Mo to his core, causing him to cough out a fountain of blood.
Die!
The Skylight Lord slashed his long spear at Ye Mo.
You die!
The one speaking at that moment was not Ye Mo, but Ling’er. A string of complicated seals acted like a chain lock, following along the body of the long spear and entering the Skylight Lord’s body, before morphing into Ling’er appearance.
Ling’er directly locked on to the golden soul essence, and with a reach with both her hands, an energy seal was sent towards the essence. The seal glowed gloriously, and even the golden soul essence trembled when it appeared.
That seal was one of greatness, specialized for countering against soul essences. It was also one that only Ling’er could use with such ease. Inside the spirit essence was the spiritual power
Come!
The soul essence was wrapped by the seal, and Ling’er then returned into Ye Mo’s Energy Center without delay.
At the same time, the golden eyes of the Skylight Lord slowly faded, and the pair of blood-red True Energy Wings and blood-colored True Energy disappeared at the same time. At the moment, it was as if the Skylight Lord had lost all of its life energy.
As Ye Mo came back to his senses, he stabbed his long spear towards him, with the golden spirit essence flying out. Ye Mo collected it with one swoop.
Before Yao Yue lost consciousness, she had witnessed what had happened, and she would never forget what she saw just then. Ye Mo had single-handedly defeated a True Energy Realm Skylight Lord.
If it was really against a fighter in the True Energy Realm, Ye Mo would not have been able to kill him even with the help of Ling’er. Armored spirits relied on their spirit essence as support. With Ling’er’s help, killing them was naturally much easier.
Since the Skylight Lord is already dead, this so called City of Death should not have any strong armored spirits left. I shall be leaving the Skylight City.
Ye Mo glanced at Yao Yue and walked towards the entrance of the city, still struggling with his injured body. He did not want anyone to know that he had killed the Skylight Lord himself.
Just as Ye Mo left, an old man with white hair hurried over, landing beside Yao Yue. The old man had the glow of the heavens, an extremely unusual sight.
Ye Mo clutched at his chest, slowly leaving as he walked towards the city entrance.
Ye Mo, is that you? I can’t believe you also entered Skylight City. What luck you have, not getting killed by the armored spirit.
Yun Shan, Xu Fu, and Yun Baitian were accounting for the numbers of injured and deceased league members when they bumped into Ye Mo. Yun Shan’s face was filled with shock and mockery.
Why? Unless you still wish to see me dead? I just bumped into a purple-eyed armored spirit and barely escaped after using all my strength. Also, Brother Yun Shan, I heard that you were the one responsible for sending out the potential evaluation missions for new league members? And you sent such a mission for me, knowing that I am a Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm? I wonder what your motive is, Brother Yun Shan. Furthermore, the map report that you gave me was a fake. I’ll be on my way back to the league to report this to the mentors.
Hearing that, the faces of Yun Shan and Yun Baitian changed drastically. If the mentors heard about this, the two of them would not get off easy.
They had expected Ye Mo to die during this mission. Little did they know that Ye Mo would be so lucky, escaping from death, merely suffering from major injuries.
Xu Fu obviously noticed the uneasiness felt by Yun Shan and Yun Baitian, and his glance immediately darted towards Ye Mo. He said,
Your name is Ye Mo, isn’t it? You can count yourself lucky to be able to survive this mission. Treat it as a gift from the heavens. I advise you to not report this incident to the mentors. No one benefits from this, understood?
God’s gift?
Ye Mo smiled slightly before saying mockingly,
The two of them wanted to sabotage me, but I should see it as God’s gift that I escaped death. Furthermore, I’m not allowed to report to the league mentors? As an inner league member, you’re going to pressure me like this?
Xu Fu laughed coldly, saying,
Newbie, you are not worth me pressuring. I am just giving you a word of advice. Yun Shan and Yun Baitian are my guys. You offend them, you offend me.
You? You’re nothing. You’re merely an inner league member.
The nerve.
Yun Shan’s face changed, and, with a grunt, outstretched his palm and unleashed a beam of energy. A Sky Crushing Palm immediately formed, towering above Ye Mo’s head.
This Sky Crushing Palm technique was what Yao Yue stopped learning halfway back in the day, and it has resurfaced now, energy flowing, engulfing the surroundings.
The strong sense of pressure had already caused the ground under Ye Mo’s feet to start collapsing. This intent of this type of attack was obvious–he wanted to kill Ye Mo.
The Skylight City had plenty of dead league members anyway!
You dare try to kill me? You’ve got no right!
With 40 rays of Dragon Power all concentrated in his left hand, the power exploded as Ye Mo’s long spear shot out. The power levels of the spear towered over that of the Sky Crushing Palm.
Ye Mo’s long spear directly pierced through the Sky Crushing Palm. Yun Shan did not even have time to be shocked when Ye Mo took a step forward, like a mythical creature, landing a punch right on Yun Shan’s chest.
Bam!
Yun Shan yelled in pain as he was sent flying back tens of yards. Long, deep marks, evidence of the attack, could already be seen on the road surface.
