Naturally, the five disciples did not come to gather the Yin Poison Grass and fight the Yin Poison Snake alone. There was one other person, and that was Ye Hu’s brother, Ye Tianqiao.
Ye Tianqiao was famous. He’d reach the Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm at the age of 20.
Ye Tianqiao had a refined face and held a red iron fan. He looked more like a scholar than a martial artist.
He swung the fan, and a burst of wind blew away the purple fog that was surrounding them.
“Kill me? You?” Ye Mo smirked. He held the Formation-Breaking Spear in one hand and jumped towards Ye Tianqiao.
“Parlor tricks,” Ye Tianqiao insulted and swung his iron fan. A burst of green-colored wind struck the huge stone like a million swords, slicing it to pieces.
Ye Tianqiao swung his fan again, and this time, out came a green lion baring its fangs towards Ye Mo.
“This must be the Green Wind Cultivation Method. One swing could produce wind blades that kill.” Ye Mo used his spear to knock away the debris and ran.
Ye Tianqiao was a Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm martial artist. If Ye Mo had not been injured from the fight before, he might have been able to fight Ye Tianqiao on even grounds. But now that he was hurt from the Six Pillar Formation, he had to escape and recover first.
The green lion smashed the debris and disappeared into thin air. Ye Tianqiao looked at Ye Mo and said, “Ye Mo is just a Spirit Cultivating First Realm martial artist, yet he was able to defend himself against the Six Pillar Formation formed by the three of you. If he were to join the Limestone Champion List Tournament, he’s going to be a threat to Ye Changsheng. He might even be a threat to the Ye Clan if he continues to grow. I’ll go after Ye Mo first and leave trails for you guys to follow.”
Ye Tianqiao closed his fan and summoned winds to envelop both of his legs. He kicked the ground and ran straight towards Ye Mo.
Ye Tianqiao’s speed was significantly faster than Ye Mo’s. He’d been practicing the Green Wind Cultivation Method. Thus, his speed with the Wind God’s Kick was faster.
“We’ll chase after you after we’ve recovered some Spiritual Energy. We have to kill Ye Mo no matter what happens!” Ye Dalong shouted and sat down. He began to absorb the Natural Energies to cultivate his Spiritual Energy.
“Ye Tianqiao is a master of tge Green Wind Cultivation Method. Plus, he’s already at the Spirit Cultivation Seventh Realm. His speed is definitely faster than me. He could catch up to me in no time,” Ye Mo said as he swallowed a Rank Two healing pill, Mind Refreshing Pill. The last Dragon Energy in his Energy Center merged with the pill to heal Ye Mo’s body. “I’ll have to find a place to hide.”
Ye Mo face darkened as he noticed Ye Tianqiao closing in. He quickened his pace and jumped over a few creeks in seconds.
Now that his injuries were healed, Ye Mo’s speed increased, but Ye Tianqiao was still in pursuit.
“There’s a huge mountain ahead. I’ll have to climb that mountain if I want to lose Ye Tianqiao.” Ye Mo said as he reached a mountain top. The purple and black mountain top was covered in fog, and the surroundings looked ominous.
“Wind Wolves!” Ye Mo noticed more than hundreds of Wind Wolves strolling around the grove not far from him.
A Wind Wolf posed no threat if it was alone, but if they were hunting in a pack, they could be very dangerous to approach.
Ye Mo laughed at Ye Tianqiao and ran towards the wolf pack.
“Wind Wolves? What is he planning now?” Ye Tianqiao left a mark for Ye Dalong and his gang and went after Ye Mo.
Ye Mo stood on top of a massive tree above the wolf pack. The Wind Wolves were weaker than Ye Mo. Thus, they did not notice him standing there. Ye Tianqiao finally caught up with Ye Mo and began to charge towards him.
“Here, a present,” Ye Mo said to Ye Tianqiao as he took out a few Beast Cores and threw them towards the wolf pack and Ye Tianqiao. The Beast Cores turned into bursts of light and hit one of the Wind Wolf that was eating its prey. Blood spilled out, and the wolf laid dead on the ground.
The other Wind Wolves were surprised by the sudden attack and looked at the Beast Core, only to notice it was from one of theirs.
Beasts would also train like humans. When they reached the True Energy Realm, the Beast Core would turn into a Spirit Pill which consisted of all their life’s training.
Ye Tianqiao caught one of the Beast Cores that was thrown to him and realized that something was off. The wolves began to howl, and all of them charged towards Ye Tianqiao.
“Ye Mo!” Ye Tianqiao shouted and looked at the wolves that were launching their attacks. He opened his fan and swung towards the wolf pack. The wolves that were at the front line were split into halves.
Ye Mo smiled. Those wolves should be enough to stall Ye Tianqiao for a while.
What Ye Mo had to do at that moment was to find Qi Yin. With her help, they could easily overcome the Wind Wolf Lord.
Yet the Spectral Valley was too big. How was he supposed to locate Qi Yin?
Then, Ye Mo suddenly remembered that the both of them were there to look for treasures in the Evil Spirit Cave. All he had to do go and look there.
But then again, the valley was still too big for Ye Mo to find the cave. Plus, many beasts roamed the valley.
Just as Ye Mo was lost in his thought, the Formation-Breaking Spear began to move. “It’s vibrating!” Ye Mo exclaimed. The yellow spear tip shook as if it was screaming. A wave of red Evil Energy leaked from the spear and soared away from him.
“I just got this weapon recently. It must be missing its original owner. Maybe the Evil Energy could guide me to the cave.” Ye Mo quickly followed the energy and found the only red valley in the Spectral Valley a few moments later.
Everything was red there, from the lights to the clouds. Even the fog was red in color. No plants could be found in the red valley.
If one were to look at the valley from afar, it would look like a volcano that was about to explode. Yet, the red color was lavas, but, instead, were evil energies, the energies of death.
“These evil energies. This must be the Evil Spirit Valley! The cave must be here somewhere!”
