The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1253: Chapter 1254: The Spirit Within the Book

Hearing the voice, Ye Mo frowned slightly. It seemed that the Tenth Prince Ao Zi had already started challenging him, intending to kill him.

"Hmm!"

Li Murong nodded and said, "Everyone, what do you think about this matter?"

"Tomorrow, we absolutely cannot accept the challenge. Ye Mo killed the Eleventh Prince of the Dead Soul Clan, and they will definitely dispatch an even stronger expert."

A leader expressed his opinion.

"Do you know who the Wraith Camp will send out tomorrow?"

Li Murong asked.

"The enemy camp has already said that tomorrow’s fighter is the Tenth Prince Ao Zi, and the deputy is a leader-level expert from the Wraith Camp."

The soldier answered.

"Ye Mo, what do you think?"

Li Murong inquired about Ye Mo’s opinion.

"Accept!"

Ye Mo said calmly.

"What? Accept?"

Li Murong was shocked. The Tenth Prince’s strength wasn’t comparable to the Eleventh Prince’s. It was said that among the twelve, almost each possessed a powerful soul device.

"Ye Mo, I suggest we cease fighting for three days to probe their situation and then make a plan."

A leader who had opened the Fourth Space-Time Gate suggested, "Currently, you are one of the few leaders in our camp capable of countering their Wraith Formation. If you also fall into their hands, it will be very difficult for us to win this battle."

In the early stage, the leader-level duel is a prelude to the war. In the later stages, it will be the decisive final battle. Now, in the prelude to the war, we can’t even dispatch experts to confront the enemy. The later decisive battle is needless to say.

"We have already lost eleven rounds, and seven leaders have died. We must boost our morale by consecutively killing three of their leaders. This is my plan, no matter what; we have to raise our morale."

Ye Mo said calmly.

Winning three consecutive matches was the goal Ye Mo had set for himself.

Although Ao Zi’s strength was formidable, he was not invincible. As long as a way to counter him was found, he could be defeated.

"Alright!"

Li Murong also nodded straightforwardly and said, "Ye Mo, if you can kill the Tenth Prince tomorrow, I will reward you with two Books of Soldiers on behalf of the camp!"

Killing a leader and rewarding two books of military techniques was unprecedented.

However, Li Murong also knew that only Ye Mo was the most suitable to fight in their camp. Those leaders who had opened the Sixth and Seventh Space-Time Gates could only take action when the decisive battle started.

Returning to the tent, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue were discussing strategies. According to the Wraith Demon Emperor, the purple net that Ao Zi had used against them was a soul device called the Sky-Shrouding Net, made from Ancient Dragon Tendon. It was extremely tough, and no sharp weapon or powerful force could break it.

"If I could collect the soul origin, I wouldn’t care about his Sky-Shrouding Net."

Ye Mo said calmly.

"Soul origin?"

Xiao Yue asked, puzzled.

"The Immortal Cycle of Life and Death I use needs to be driven by the power of soul origin, but the soul origin I’ve collected now cannot allow me to use the Immortal Cycle of Life and Death."

Ye Mo said.

Immortal Cycle of Life and Death, Xiao Yue also remembered, was extremely powerful. If Ye Mo could deploy this move, he might break the Sky-Shrouding Net. Once it is broken, even if the opponent had the power to open the Fourth Space-Time Gate, together with Xiao Yue, they could take him on.

"Ye Mo, didn’t Li Murong say the Book of Soldiers given to you had strong souls sealed inside? Maybe you should try it; you might gain something."

Xiao Yue suggested, raising her eyebrows suddenly.

"Alright, but I heard unsealing the Book of Soldiers causes a commotion. Yueyue, please protect me while I try!"

Ye Mo said.

"Okay, be careful!"

Xiao Yue nodded and walked out of the tent to protect Ye Mo.

Ye Mo directly threw out the Book of Soldiers, and his heart force penetrated it instantly, completely unsealing the Book of Soldiers.

Immediately, a powerful illusory humanoid figure burst out of the Book of Soldiers, its eyes shining brightly upon seeing Ye Mo.

"Haha, you’re certainly bold, a martial artist of the Third Transformation of Wheel of Reincarnation, daring to release my soul directly! Though my soul is sealed on this Book of Soldiers, without reaching the Divine Venerate Realm, freeing me is simply seeking death. Watch as I tear your flesh to shreds, turning it into energy to nourish my body, allowing my soul body to exist longer."

In the vast space of the camp, a maniacal roar resounded, causing the surrounding space to tremble violently. The illusory figure moved, striking towards Ye Mo.

Facing the approaching soul body, Ye Mo also sneered. His eyes as sharp as blades, said, "Since you are already dead, you should have the awareness of death. Unless you find a way to refine a body, you will ultimately perish even if you cling to life. Do you think just because I’m in the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm, I cannot deal with you?"

Ye Mo opened his five fingers, deploying the Soul Collecting Technique. With a sudden grip, it seemed the entire space began to shake, possessing the momentum of grasping the Unbreakable Mountain. Instantly, the Divine Venerate Strong Practitioner felt a powerful force violently tearing at their soul, forming a whirlpool attacking Ye Mo’s palm.

"What technique is this? It can attack the soul body! No, I must escape!"

The soul body of the Divine Venerate Strong Practitioner trembled instantly, emitting a glow as if trying to escape from Ye Mo’s grasp.

"It’s useless. My Soul Collecting Technique is specifically meant to deal with soul bodies. Your soul body is so massive; it’s enough for me to condense three soul essences."

Ye Mo shouted loudly. The Lu Xian arm trembled again, and his hand reached out fiercely, causing the soul body of the Divine Venerate Strong Practitioner to twist even more severely, eventually squeezing it into a ball.

Ye Mo watched the illusory flesh ball jump and struggle in his hand, yet it couldn’t break free.

"Don’t kill me!"

The Divine Venerate Strong Practitioner screamed hoarsely, but Ye Mo was indifferent, rotating the Soul Collecting Technique again, shattering its soul body completely into a large amount of soul origin power, compressed directly by Ye Mo into three drops of soul essence, stored in the Lu Xian arm.

As the soul of the Divine Venerate Realm shattered, a massive energy flowed violently from the Book of Soldiers, pouring down on Ye Mo’s head, making his body crackle explosively.

This energy was almost the entire cultivation of an ancient master, all poured down at once. A regular martial artist would be crushed to death by this energy.

"Great, this energy is enough to help me break through to the Fourth Transformation of Wheel of Reincarnation and comprehend Time Acceleration."

Ye Mo didn’t hesitate, immediately beginning to absorb and refine this energy.

Advancement was eagerly anticipated.
