The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1382 - 1383: Torture for a Confession

"The strength of a Divine Venerate Eight Souls expert is indeed formidable. My strongest defense couldn’t even withstand a fraction of their power."

Tantai Zanglian’s face was haggard, fearing that today might be her downfall. Even if her family’s elders arrived, they wouldn’t be able to save her cultivation.

"You lost!"

Elder Wu Chen said expressionlessly, with his hands behind his back.

"Wu Chen, you old thing, have you no shame? How dare you bully my disciple?"

At this moment, Mengxin and Wang Qiu Chi dared to step forward, and Mengxin immediately referred to Tantai Zanglian as her disciple.

"Disciple!"

Not only was the Mountain Guarding Old Man stunned, but even Tantai Zanglian was taken aback.

"The force you used just now wasn’t just a fraction, was it?"

Mengxin sneered.

"Elder Mengxin, what do you mean by this?"

Elder Wu Chen, upon seeing who had arrived, especially hearing her refer to the girl from the Tantai family as her disciple, sensed something amiss; he had never heard of Mengxin taking a disciple.

"I mean nothing. My disciple came to the Mountain of Wraith to find me, and you obstructed her. That could be tolerated. But you, old thing, gambled against my disciple and used two parts of your force. Should word get out, would you maintain your dignity?"

Mengxin said.

Elder Wu Chen’s face flushed red with embarrassment, for he had indeed exerted two parts of force in that move.

"Your disciple’s strength is not bad; you should cultivate her well."

Elder Wu Chen snorted coldly and left, treading the void.

"Thank you, Elder Mengxin!"

Seeing Elder Wu Chen and the Mountain Guarding Old Man leave, Tantai Zanglian cupped her hands at once, offering her gratitude.

She clearly understood that Mengxin had said so deliberately.

"Why are you still calling me Elder?"

Mengxin raised her eyebrows slightly, a bit displeased, "You dared to break into the Mountain of Wraith, proving your courage, and you brought Ye Mo into the Wraith Clan. Hence, I take you as my disciple. From now on, you will be my direct disciple, Mengxin’s personal disciple."

"What?"

Tantai Zanglian’s face immediately showed an incredulous expression; being accepted by Mengxin as her disciple—what was the significance of that? It must be known that Mengxin was a Supreme Elder, considered to be at the King Rank level, and with her strength reaching the Divine Venerate Nine Souls, becoming her disciple promised an immeasurable future.

Moreover, from Mengxin’s words, she understood that all of this was because of Ye Mo. What exactly was the relationship between Ye Mo and Mengxin?

"Alright, I need to make a trip to the Punishment chambers. You two follow me. I want to see how bold the Punishment chambers Master is to dare to rough up Ye Mo."

With that said, the three of them transformed into three streaks of light, heading towards the Punishment chambers.

The punishment cell of the Wraith Clan’s Punishment chambers had walls forged from ten-thousand-year Profound Steel, indestructible.

Ye Mo’s hands and feet were directly shackled and locked in an iron cage, hanging in mid-air, beneath which was a massive pit with raging flames.

These flames were extremely fierce and violent, and even Divine Venerates would likely be reduced to ashes if they were not careful.

The Punishment chambers disciple standing nearby could feel an intense heat.

"Ye Mo, this is the Sacred Fire of All-Spirit. If I toss you directly into it, your body will be burned by the Sacred Fire. Even if your martial arts cultivation is strong, you cannot withstand it."

Wang Tian Xing said forcefully, "I advise you to admit immediately that you are a spy sent by the Dead Soul Clan."

"You’re simply trying to force a confession?"

Ye Mo smiled coldly, "Wang Tian Xing, your Punishment chambers really has methods. Even obtaining the Sacred Fire of All-Spirit, but I advise you not to waste your efforts. I will never admit it. You’d better release me immediately. If you’re late, even if you release me, I won’t go."

Ye Mo was now waiting. As long as Mengxin arrived, Wang Tian Xing’s outcome would definitely be tragic.

"Facing death, you’re still trying to gain the upper hand in words. Release the cage!"

Wang Tian Xing roared, and a nearby disciple released the chain holding up the cage, causing it to plummet into the pit below, engulfing Ye Mo in flames.

"Haha, this Sacred Fire of All-Spirit is indeed powerful, even capable of tempering my body. Ye Mo, you just deliberately anger him, then use the Devil Refining Gourd to slowly absorb the Sacred Fire, and in this way, my body can gradually recover."

This laughter naturally came from the Wraith Demon Emperor. As Ye Mo entered the pit, he secretly activated the Devil Refining Gourd, absorbing the Sacred Fire of All-Spirit that covered his body. If Ye Mo had to endure it himself, he wouldn’t last long, but the Wraith Demon Emperor could use it to temper his body, gradually reaching peak condition.

Back then, when he fought with Ao Canngwu, his martial arts and soul cultivation were severely damaged, reducing his strength to less than a tenth of its peak.

"Wang Tian Xing, is this the power of the Sacred Fire of All-Spirit? It doesn’t hurt or itch at all. Is there a stronger flame?"

Ye Mo sneered.

Wang Tian Xing looked at that smiling face in disbelief. How could Ye Mo be unscathed in the Sacred Fire of All-Spirit and even smiling? This shouldn’t be possible; even those disciples and elders who had previously been punished, thrown into this Sacred Fire pit, all screamed miserably, unable to live or die.

Moreover, this didn’t seem to be an act by Ye Mo.

"Impossible!"

Wang Tian Xing shook his head, "The Sacred Fire of All-Spirit is pervasive. Even if he has the defensive treasures of an Immortal Artifact, it’s useless. How can this kid be unaffected?"

"Hall Master, I think I should unleash the Black Bone Fiery Flame to see if he can still be so arrogant."

One of the middle-aged men said. He was the Vice Hall Master of the punishment chambers.

The Black Bone Fiery Flame is a spiritual flame, not innate but acquired. Anyone who has collected spiritual flame is considered fortuitous, an extraordinary person. The middle-aged man became the Vice Hall Master by possessing the Black Bone Fiery Flame.

Moreover, this Black Bone Fiery Flame is ranked tenth on the Soul Fire Leaderboard.

"Fine, Vice Hall Master, use the Black Bone Fiery Flame. I want to see if he can withstand its burning."

Wang Tian Xing said.

"My soul cultivation is at the Soul Realm Sixth Layer. Any martial artist at the Soul Realm Sixth Layer wrapped in this Black Bone Fiery Flame’s spiritual flame will have their Soul Body turned to ashes."

Boom!

After the Vice Hall Master of the punishment chambers spoke, his eyes emitted an illusory flame, directly shooting it into the pit.

The crowd saw, in that pit, another layer of illusory black flames ignited, enveloping Ye Mo’s body.
