The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

The storm finally calmed down.

The strength that Ye Mo had displayed made all the Castellans at the scene admire him.

Especially the brothers from Hu City. Their eyes were wide open looking at the scene. In the past, Ye Mo had been unable to defend against experts in the early Profound Heavens Realm. But now, he could force an expert in the late Profound Heavens Realm to sacrifice his clone.

Moreover, this Castellan was a five-star Castellan, one of the most mighty experts in the Zone of Chaos.

Ye Mo ignored the admiration of the crowd and walked into the Gold Palace, alone.

Inside, a figure stood, not a human, but a Weapon Spirit.

The spirit couldn’t speak, but Ye Mo didn’t need to communicate with it. He handed the required Demonic Crystals over and successfully purchased the Water Changing Ice, the Red Dragon Wings, and the White Fog Spirit Jade.

Then he left the Gold Palace.

“Ye Mo, can you wait?” a voice sounded in the distance. A young man flew over. “My name is Leng Wei. I’m here to talk to you on behalf of the other contestants in the tenth district.”

“Talk?” Ye Mo frowned.

“Yes,” Leng Wei spoke coldly. “Since we’re all still here in the Black Jade Mountains, that means we’re all planning on entering the second round of the trials. After one more day, the Thousand Cities List will reappear. This time, it will show the new Demonic Crystals rankings. This ranking is aimed at all the Castellans.”

“So what?” Ye Mo continued.

“I hope that the remaining Castellans from the tenth district can join together,” Leng Wei proposed. “You’re the strongest out of all of us. You could be the leader. The rest of us are only in the mid-Profound Heavens Realm. We can’t go up against fighters in the late Profound Heavens Realm. Only if we work together will we have a chance.”

As Leng Wei spoked, other Castellans flew from the sky, one after another. The oldest looked to be in his seventies. The youngest looked around the same age as Ye Mo.

“Ye Mo, we’re all very impressed with your strength,” one castellan said. “You can compete against an expert in the late Profound Heavens Realm while just in the early Profound Worlds Realm. If you break through to the mid-Profound World Realm, your strength would probably be at the same level as a three-star Castellan.”

“That’s right,” another castellan agreed. “Although we might not able to get the resources from the Palace, there will still be rewards of we survive the three months. It will be a kind of training for our cultivation.”

“Aren’t you afraid of Song Gang?” Ye Mo asked. “He already said that h’s going to deal with me. He’s a five-star Castellan.”

“Ye Mo, you don’t have to worry about him,” Leng Wei said. “Although he’s a five-star Castellan, there are a lot more of us than there are of him. Also, we know a few three-star Castellans. Someone even knows a four-star Castellan. As long as we gather again after entering the Black Jade Mountain and create an alliance, we won’t need to be afraid of him.”

“Okay. In that case, I’ll join.”

According to Leng Wei, the second stage of the trial wasn’t just about fighting for oneself, but, instead, fighters would form alliances to compete.

If someone acted alone, they would die miserably. Against a powerful seven-star Castellan, a two-star Castellan would perish.

The matter of the alliance was settled, just like that.

Ye Mo also handed over the White Fog Spirit Jade to Liu Xing.

“Xiao Cao, you follow Brother Liu back to the city,” Ye Mo said. “After the competition is over, I’ll come find you, as long as there’re no accidents. Then, let’s go back to the Zone of Desolation together.”

“En! Young Master, you must be careful,” Xiao Cao warned.

Originally, Xiao Cao had wanted to persuade Ye Mo not to enter the second round. Song Gang, a five-star Castellan, had targeted him. A man of that level wasn’t someone Ye Mo could defend against.

But Xiao Cao didn’t say it out loud. Ye Mo was able to get this far, step by step, by having the courage to always move forward and never retreat.

Backing off wasn’t Ye Mo’s style.

“Okay. You two should be careful as well.”

Watching the two people leave, Ye Mo regained his senses. He said to Yao Yue, “Little Yao, this is a drop of the Primordial Shenrui Blood. I can help you refine the Cold Water very quickly. I’m also going to go merge with the Red Dragon Wings.”

“Primordial Shenrui Blood? Why do you have something like that?”

Yao Yue knew very well how precious a drop of Primordial Shenrui Blood was.

“It’s not important,” Ye Mo said. “The second round of trials will begin tomorrow. We need to do our best to increase our strength before then.”

“En.” Yao Yue nodded and flew away. She found an open space and began to refine the Water Changing Ice, a low-grade Celestial Weapon.

Ye Mo went to a secluded mountain in the opposite direction and prepared to get busy.

He was going to merge the Red Dragon Wings and his own Profound Dragon Wings.

The Red Dragon Wings weren’t really a low-grade Celestial Weapon. Just their toughness had reached the level of a low-grade Celestial Weapon. It may have even reached the level of a mid-grade Celestial Weapon.

The Red Dragon Wings were real Dragon Wings, while the Profound Dragon Wings were condensed from Profound Qi. Naturally, the Profound Qi couldn’t compare with the real Red Dragon.

But, it was a Red Dragon, and Ye Mo had inherited the Ancient Azure Dragon Blood. That was important. The divine level of his bloodline was much stronger than the Red Dragon.

Therefore, if Ye Mo wanted to refine the Red Dragon wings, it would be simple. He only needed to drip a drop of Ancient Azure Dragon Blood directly onto the Red Dragon Wings.

Ye Mo didn’t hesitate. He could urge the power of the Ancient Azure Dragon Blood out anytime. But the only benefit Ye Mo got was strengthening his defense. After the strength of Dragon Blood reached sixth order, his defense would reach the level of a low-grade Celestial Weapon until and unless Ye Mo was able to raise the strength of the Dragon Blood to the seventh order.

Ye Mo didn’t dare to casually release the bloodline power in the Zone of Chaos. After all, his Clan was too mysterious and powerful. Ye Mo didn’t want to expose his identity before he was strong enough to defend himself.

Ye Mo urged the bloodline to rise and dripped a drop of blood spirit onto the Red Dragon Wings. In an instant, the blood-red wings emitted a flash of red light, as if they had spirituality.

If the Red Dragon Wings were given to a powerful weapon refiner, then they could definitely be turned into a Celestial Weapon treasure

But this was Ye Mo, he just used his own Blood Power and gave it to the spirituality of the Red Dragon Wings.

In an instant, Ye Mo had successfully refined the Red Dragon Wings.

Xiu!

Ye Mo unfolded the Red Dragon Wings. Coupled with the Profound Dragon Wings, they made this pair of wings extremely dazzling.

The effects of the two had completely overlapped with each other.

Ye Mo leaped into the air. His entire body turned into a stream of shadow. He leaped along the mountain peak, and the two mountains on either side of him were cut by the pair of wings. The cuts were clean and smooth.

This pair of wings was a sharp weapon, definitely comparable to a low-grade Celestial Weapon.

Ye Mo flew at high speed. He could definitely cut beasts in the mid-Profound Heavens Realm in half with this pair of wings.

“Ye Mo, now that you’ve reached the Profound World Realm, and have merged the Red Dragon Wings, you can begin to cultivate the second and even third stage of the Shifting Phantom,” Hong Ling said faintly.

“Shifting Phantom?” Ye Mo said. “If I succeed in my cultivation, then I don’t need to personally make a move when facing an expert in the mid-Profound Heavens Realm. I can use my body and the Red Dragon Wings to hit them to death.”

Ye Mo was in high spirits. He smiled as he soared above the ground.
