After leaving the Ancient Martial City, Ye Mo increased his speed. Slowly, he vanished amid the woods. In the dense forest, towering trees laid everywhere. Numerous dangerous auras could be felt, and occasionally, extremely dangerous beasts could be seen lingering around. Ye Mo paid no attention to these beasts. Instead, he paid close attention to the few auras that were locked onto him.
There were four people tailing him, with one of them being the clone of a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert. The clone of a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert was no weaker than the main body. A casual strike was sufficient to kill a True Energy Realm expert.
Although Ye Mo had his Rising Dragon Pillar that was capable of absorbing all clones, he still needed an opening in order to do that. He rushed straight past over 1,000 towering trees in a single breath and slowly entered deeper and deeper into the forest. After he exhausted this single breath he was holding in, he stopped moving.

Why are you not moving?

Right after he stopped, a terrifying aura appeared behind him.



So you knew I was tailing you, kid. Regardless of how you run, you will never be able to shake me off.
Then, Sima Liang appeared before Ye Mo and smiled coldly.
Well, I guess this is good as well. You had helped the Sima Clan save millions during the auction. To be so rich at such a young age, are you a young master of a huge clan?


Since you know that I am the young master of a huge clan, you still dare to make a move against me?
Ye Mo was completely calm. In his energy center, Ling’er was pouring her senses out to their surroundings without stopping and constantly informing Ye Mo the movements of all four auras tailing him.

What do I have to fear? I can kill you here and snatch your storage ring. Nobody would know it was me. As for the three geezers, they will never be able to leave alive.
Right after Sima Liang said this, someone howled with laughter distantly. Then, a black-haired old man flew forward and stood on a branch.
This old man had a sturdy build and a pair of dark arms. He appeared to be a person filled with an explosive strength. He was the elder of the Hu Clan, the very Hu Fei that had competed against Sima Liang during the auction. He had a profound cultivation level. When he looked in their direction, his tiger-like eyes looked as if he had instantly seen through Sima Liang.
It was as if a boundless power was contained within that pair of eyes, a pair of eyes capable of seeing through an opponent’s very soul. This was an ancient martial technique of an ancient martial clan that cultivated a pair of eyes capable of seeing through everything.

Sima Liang, this Ye Mo belongs to us, the Hu Clan,
the tiger-eyed old man said.

Hu Fei, are you trying to be my enemy? Why don’t you take a look at your cultivation level first?
Sima Liang sneered.

Haha, if you are here with your main body, I might fear you. Unfortunately, you’re only here with your clone.
Hu Fei’s tiger eyes darted over him, helping him see that this Sima Liang was in fact a clone. The moment Hu Fei said that, two other old men appeared from amidst the forest.

We of the Zhao Clan are interested in getting our hands on the ruined map as well.


How can the Mo Clan miss out on something this fun?



The elders of the Mo Clan and Zhao Clan both appeared at the same time. They respectively landed on a different branches.

These bastards are indeed planning something nasty.
When Ye Mo saw all this happening, his mental state went into a full alert. There were three True Energy Realm experts and a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert here while he was only an Energy Shaping Realm warrior. A single strike from any one of them would be sufficient to kill him.
However, the situation was slightly better than he had imagined. Hu Fei from Hu Clan would protect him. Perhaps that was due to the Hu brothers.

I had been wondering who it was. So it’s Geezer Zhao and Geezer Mo? Do you think you can snatch the ruined map from me? Although I am only here in my clone, are you guys unaware of the gap between Heaven’s Gate Realm and True Energy Realm? The gap between our energy levels is as wide as the sky and earth. Even if the three of you attacked together, what do I, Sima Liang, have to fear?
Sima Liang sneered.

Haha!
Hu Fei laughed heartily. Then, a huge saber appeared in his hand. On the saber, a trace of Desolate Qi could be seen. This was an aura that had originated from the ancient times.
This aura was extremely odd. It was as if it could affect the flow of Yuanli.
Ka-cha!
Hu Fei charged Sima Liang with his saber. A raging black flame lit up on his weapon. This was his True Energy burning, a True Energy Fire that had appeared after he attacked with full strength while igniting his True Energy.

The gap between the Heaven’s Gate Realm and True Energy Realm is insurmountable. Even if I’m not here with my main body, you still won’t be able to surmount this gap.
Sima Liang formed a long sword in his hand. He waved his sword and instantly, his True Energy roiled out like a raging army. His momentum completely suppressed Hu Fei’s momentum.
Bang!


The moment their attacks collided, a rumbling sound rang out. The trees in their vicinity all snapped while a huge crater with a diameter of about 90 feet appeared. As for Ye Mo, he was instantly sent flying away from the shockwave.
With one saber and one sword, Sima Liang and Hu Fei clashed without stop. A deep layer of earth was shaved off the ground from their clashes while the boulders and trees around them all collapsed.
They exchanged seven attacks in total. Each attack had an earth-shattering impact. After the clash, Hu Fei’s face was flushed red while the ground beneath his feet was already reduced into fine powder.
Sima Liang was also standing still, his True Energy violently trembling. The victor was actually undecided even after seven moves. One ought to know that Hu Fei and Sima Liang had a gap of one realm between them. After regaining his footing, Ye Mo stood on top of a huge tree and observed the battle.
Behind him, a True Energy chain appeared and directly binded him, tying him to the tree. Ye Mo looked at the True Energy chain on him. He wasn’t surprised nor did he care about it. He continued observing the battle. That Hu Fei was actually powerful enough to fight Sima Liang to a standstill.

Haha, Sima Liang, although you have a denser True Energy and are a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert, my attacks are capable of restraining True Energy. Have you not noticed that every time you attacked, you only have the form but no power behind your attack?
Hu Fei howled. This was the ancient martial technique of his Hu Clan. When they attacked, a tiny trace of Devour Power would be present. With this, they could restrain the True Energy of their opponents.

The Hu Clan is indeed not simple. Even though you can fight me to a standstill, so what? You don’t have much True Energy left. You won’t last any longer.
The white hair on Sima Liang stood up while his entire body was engulfed in a dense killing intent. He was unleashing the true might of a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert.

Old Zhao, Old Mo, how about we work together to kill this clone of Sima Liang first?
Hu Fei said towards the two True Energy Realm warriors near him.

Exactly what I had in mind.
The three True Energy Realm experts howled at the same time and each unleashed their own martial techniques and pressed on towards Sima Liang.
Numerous strains of berserk True Energy revolved in the air and enveloped the entire forest. Snapping sounds started ringing out from the trees while the ground started turning into dust that rose out like a cloud.


The three True Energy Realm spared no effort and cooperated to trap Sima Liang.

My attacks can restrain him. Let me be the vanguard. The two of you need to help me exhaust his True Energy. His strength will get weaker and weaker. Ultimately, he will be the one to lose.
The True Energy within Hu Fei surged out madly and filled the air around him.
As for Sima Liang, his clone was unwavering, resisting the onslaught from the three. They engaged in a bitter clash of True Energy. None of them dared to hold back as the one who did that would instantly suffer a grave injury.

Hehe, Sima Liang, you will be completely exhausted of True Energy within 100 breaths. Your clone will vanish when that happens.
Hu Fei’s face was flushed red as he kept pouring his True Energy out.

If you stop now, you still have a chance to escape. After 100 breaths, my main body will arrive. At that time, none of you can wish to escape. Haha!
Sima Liang started howling with laughter.
