Chapter 436: Battling a Heaven’s Strength Realm
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Wielding his Sky Blood Spear, Ye Mo’s face turned solemn.
The Xu Clan was indeed repulsive. For the sake of getting his Luosha Token, they had tried everything they could. If it wasn’t for the Luosha Emperor thinking he was the Evil Luosha Spirit Lord, they would have gotten his Luosha Token by now.
This verified the importance of having a backer.
“Stop the small talk,” Ye Mo could not be bothered with the needless bickering. He aimed his spear straight at Xu Wuji’s head in provocation.
Xu Wuji was a late-stage Heaven’s Strength Realm warrior. Seeing how a late-stage True Energy Realm warrior was provoking him, he instantly grew furious.
Bang!
Xu Wuji stared straight at Ye Mo before he abruptly stepped forward. The ground beneath him exploded as the sword hanging on his back was unsheathed. The sword sliced through the air, leaving a trail behind as vigorous true energy poured out of Xu Wuji and pressed down upon Ye Mo.
Warriors in the Heaven’s Strength Realm would be able to condense Heaven’s Strength Qi within their Energy Core. When the Heaven’s Strength Qi was fused with their true energy, shining trails would be left in the air when they fought. The Heaven’s Strength Qi, also known as the Heaven’s Internal Strength, would be able to immediately invade the body of their enemy the moment contact was made. Generally speaking, experts in the Heaven’s Gate Realm would never be a match of those in the Heaven’s Strength Realm. After all, being invaded by Heaven’s Strength Qi was the equivalent of death.
But Ye Mo was different. He had a resilient physical body and the Rising Dragon Pillar to slowly dissolve the internal energy that had invaded his body.
Xu Wuji yelled and waved his sword at Ye Mo. “Die!”
Instantly, numerous dazzling lights shot out of the sword and surged forth towards Ye Mo from all directions like a tsunami. Xu Wuji was not holding back at all. If this was in the past, he would never be serious against a late-stage True Energy Realm warrior.
But facing Ye Mo, there was a flame of fury in his heart, a flame he did not notice.
The Luosha Emperor had for Ye Mo’s sake threatened to remove the Xu Clan from the kingdom. Therefore, he had to prove that he was better than Ye Mo with his strength. Facing the surging sword lights, Ye Mo stayed motionless. The next moment, he tightened his grip on the Sky Blood Spear and unleashed 30,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power while stabbing forth repeatedly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sword lights and spear lights collided, creating numerous shockwaves that spread everywhere, causing the air itself to warp. The moment they fought, they created a violent collision. Neither Xu Fu or the emperor had expected the two to unleash their full power this early.
Moreover, Ye Mo did not seem to be at any disadvantage.
“How is that possible?” Xu Wuji was shocked. Ye Mo was merely a late-stage True Energy Realm warrior yet capable of clashing with him without suffering a loss. His Heaven’s Strength Qi had failed to do anything as well. And during the exchange, he felt a chilling sensation, as if his blood was trying to gush out his body.
Bang!
Xu Wuji’s face fell as he activated the true energy within his body before slicing forward with his sword towards Ye Mo’s spear. With that exchange, both of them were forced backwards. At that moment, Xu Fu’s eyes were opened wide in shock. With Ye Mo’s cultivation level, he was able to last this long.
“Although you are capable of fighting me head-on, I can feel that you are only at the late-stage of True Energy Realm. You might be strong, but the breadth of our true energy is incomparable. Let me show you the gap between the True Energy Realm and Heaven’s Strength Realm.”
He leapt high into the air and held his sword with both hands, fusing with his sword to transform into a massive sword that whizzed through the air towards Ye Mo.
Back then, Wen Xiangtian had used the same technique as well. When one reached human sword unity, one would be able to transform into a massive sword that was capable of remarkable might. And when this technique was used by Xu Wuji who was a late-stage Heaven’s Strength Realm expert, it was even more powerful.
Ye Mo could sense the might of this attack. He immediately sidestepped and barely avoided it with the sword brushing against his face. Even though he dodged it, the Heaven’s Strength Qi was still able to pierce through the air and tore his clothing into strips of cloth while leaving various scars on his body. Seeing this, a smile formed on Xu Fu’s face while his anxiousness vanished.
How could the Cosmos Qi be obtained that easily?
As for the Luosha Emperor, he maintained a calm expression. He did not care about the result of the match. He would ultimately give Ye Mo both the Luosha Token and the Cosmos Qi.
Swish!
Again, the sword sliced at Ye Mo, leaving a trail of light in the air. The sword moved everywhere, leaving numerous trails of light on the air, filling the entire field with sword qi.
“Hmph. Let me see how are you going to dodge this. Wuji is the most outstanding genius of our Xu Clan ever,” said Xu Fu with a sinister expression. Since weapons were blind, he even wished Ye Mo would get killed by Xu Wuji.
Facing such a powerful attack, Ye Mo frowned. This Heaven’s Strength Realm expert was not only nimble. His attacks were powerful as well. If Ye Mo hadn’t utilized his Technique of Interchangeability, he would have been sliced in two long ago. But continuous dodging would not solve anything. He clenched his teeth and started activating the Technique of Interchangeability again.
Instantly, 10 figures appeared in the field.
“Illusions? I will slice everything apart with my sword,” Xu Wuji shouted as the massive sword started slicing at the figures.
“Now!” Ye Mo’s eyes flickered when his opponent was aiming at the figures, his actual body aimed straight at the sword before stabbing forth.
All his power was concentrated in this single stab.
Bang!
The weakest part of the massive sword was struck by Ye Mo’s spear. Instantly, Xu Wuji was forced out of the sword. He started falling from the sky, and with a back-flip, he landed on the ground.
“Interesting. Surprisingly, you have a lot of cards up your sleeve. But I am no longer interested to play around with you,” said Xu Wuji as he suddenly withdrew his internal energy while the energy armor around his body dissolved. Next, numerous swords appeared midair before piercing straight towards Ye Mo. As for Xu Wuji himself, he once again combined with the sword and turned into a massive sword that pierced straight towards Ye Mo as well.
This attack did not look like something Ye Mo could stop. It seemed like not even Luo Hun could stop it.
“How can that Xu Wuji use such a powerful martial technique?” Even the Luosha Emperor was shocked. If this technique was used during the fight with Luo Hun, even if Luo Hun had still won, the victory wouldn’t have been that easy.
Xu Fu’s lips curled up to form a smile, a sinister expression covering his face. If it wasn’t for the fact that Luo Hun was the emperor’s adopted son, how could he tell his son to intentionally lose to him?
“Ye Mo, with your cultivation of late-stage True Energy Realm, you can force me to use this World of Sword technique. Well, be glad as your death won’t be for nothing.”
The air above the Asura Field was filled with numerous sword lights flitting across the sky while Xu Wuji’s presence grew again. He was aiming to kill Ye Mo with this attack. Facing such a powerful attack, killing intent surfaced in Ye Mo’s eyes as well. In his mind, numerous scenes of death surfaced.
“World of Sword?” Ye Mo snorted. Next, the Sky Blood Spear started humming as he unleashed the spear’s spirituality. An intense Blood Qi erupted, causing the color of the sky to change. Even the ground started shaking as well.
“Realm of Death!”
All the natural Blood Qi in the vicinity started converging, transforming into a whirlpool that was all absorbed into the spear. Finally, Ye Mo stabbed out.
