The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1383 - 1384: Plundering the Spiritual Flame

"What a mighty soul flame!"

Ye Mo was taken aback. The spiritual flame possesses the effects of both Soul Body Martial Technique and Soul Techniques. The Soul Body Martial Technique is a close-range spiritual attack targeting the Soul Body, while Soul Techniques are long-range spiritual attacks aimed at the Soul Sea. However, the Black Bone Fiery Flame, once it entangles, burns both simultaneously.

"Ye Mo, this flame is a spiritual flame tamed by that guy himself. It directly attacks your Soul Sea and Soul Body. The Devil Refining Gourd cannot absorb it."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said.

"Then what should I do?"

Ye Mo asked anxiously.

"This Black Bone Fiery Flame is a true spiritual flame and is ranked on the leaderboards. Moreover, it belongs to someone. Perhaps it’s an opportunity to directly turn the Black Bone Fiery Flame into your own, though the risk is somewhat high."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said calmly.

"Who cares about the risk? Tell me!"

Ye Mo said.

"This is just a guess of mine. Your Immortal Cycle of Life and Death, the flame on it, is most likely the flame ranked first on the Soul Fire Leaderboard."

The Wraith Demon Emperor wrinkled his brow. After much observation, the only flame capable of both material and spiritual attack is the Undying Life-and-Death Flame, ranked first on the Soul Fire Leaderboard. And this name bears a striking resemblance to your Immortal Cycle of Life and Death. This black flame is undoubtedly the Undying Life-and-Death Flame.

"What? The flame ranked first on the Soul Fire Leaderboard?"

Ye Mo was shocked. This completely took him by surprise. Yet, Ye Mo had always thought that the flame on the Immortal Cycle of Life and Death was extraordinary and never imagined it to be the Undying Life-and-Death Flame.

"Yes, the flame ranked first is the Undying Life-and-Death Flame, with the title of being inextinguishable."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said.

"Inextinguishable? Though this flame is strong, to me, it doesn’t compare to even a fraction of the Black Bone Fiery Flame."

Ye Mo said.

"Undying Life-and-Death Flame, do you know why it’s so named? Because it’s the weakest and the strongest spiritual flame. To make it powerful, it must continuously devour other spiritual flames. It can devour any spiritual flame. Only by devouring all spiritual flames can it claim to be the strongest."

The Wraith Demon Emperor said.

"Devour spiritual flames?"

Ye Mo’s eyes burned with intensity. His Rising Dragon Pillar can devour material energy. To think that the Undying Life-and-Death Flame can devour spiritual flames fits his upgrade pattern perfectly.

"If that’s the case, then let’s give it a try!"

Though their mental exchange seemed long, it was just a moment. Ye Mo waved his hand, and the same black flame enveloped his body, wrapping himself up tightly.

However, the Black Bone Fiery Flame was exceptionally fierce, presenting the strongest attack power, directly aiming to burn Ye Mo’s Soul Sea and Soul Body.

The Soul Clan’s Glory can protect the Soul Sea, but not the Soul Body.

"The spiritual flame is indeed formidable!"

Ye Mo was startled, and his Soul Body moved to release a black flame, wrapping himself up, so no matter how the Black Bone Fiery Flame invaded, it couldn’t harm Ye Mo at all.

At this moment, the Undying Life-and-Death Flame had begun absorbing the Black Bone Fiery Flame.

In usual circumstances, if two masters fought and a spiritual attack missed, they would generally cease further attacks, as continuing would deplete more spiritual energy, leading to an exhausted Soul Sea and affecting combat strength.

But this time, it was different. Ye Mo was trapped in a cage, and the Vice Hall Master was recklessly releasing the Black Bone Fiery Flame.

"Let’s see how long you can last!"

Watching Ye Mo remain unmoved, the Vice Hall Master continually urged the Black Bone Fiery Flame, unaware that his flame was being absorbed by Ye Mo bit by bit.

The time continued for a full incense’s time, leaving the Vice Hall Master pale as his Soul Sea was utterly depleted, no longer able to sustain the Black Bone Fiery Flame.

"Now’s the time!"

Ye Mo’s eyes suddenly opened, and a black flame shot forth.

Whoosh!

The disciples of the Punishment chambers saw the flame directly entering the Vice Hall Master’s brain. Then, a black flame seed emerged from the Vice Hall Master’s brain. At this moment, his Soul Sea was depleted, and he could only watch as the seed was taken away, unable to control it at all.

"Hall Master, stop him, stop him!"

The Vice Hall Master howled in rage. The Black Bone Fiery Flame was a hard-won spiritual flame, greatly enhancing his spiritual attacks by wrapping them in flame. But it was too late.

Ye Mo, using the Undying Life-and-Death Flame, seized the Black Bone Fiery Flame’s seed. If it weren’t for the Vice Hall Master’s depleted Soul Sea, Ye Mo would not have managed to snatch the flame seed from the depths of the Soul Sea.

Once the flame seed entered Ye Mo’s Brain Domain, it was instantly suppressed into the depths of the sea, causing Ye Mo’s Soul Sea to boil and surge.

Ye Mo’s Soul Cultivation rose significantly. Though his cultivation was of the Soul Realm Second Layer, with the upgraded Undying Life-and-Death Flame, he could now easily defeat a Soul Realm Second Layer expert, something previously impossible.

Devouring the Black Bone Fiery Flame raised the power of the Undying Life-and-Death Flame to that of the Black Bone Fiery Flame. Although he couldn’t contend with Soul Realm Third Layer in terms of Soul Cultivation, a martial artist of the Soul Realm Third Layer couldn’t harm Ye Mo with spiritual attacks.

If Ye Mo were to devour another spiritual flame, he could truly achieve a cross-rank challenge, unparalleled in the realm of Soul Cultivation, unique to Ye Mo alone.

"I must thank the Hall Master for gifting me the Black Bone Fiery Flame."

Ye Mo said with a faint smile.

"You’ve taken my Black Bone Fiery Flame, how did you do it?"

The Vice Hall Master yelled angrily, his body swelling up as he grabbed the iron chain, lifting Ye Mo, about to strike when Wang Xingtian intervened.

"Don’t act rashly. I understand how you feel. This Ye Xiao is extremely strange, capable of seizing spiritual flames. We haven’t extracted his confession yet. If we kill him now, we’d leave evidence. Once we’ve got the confession, you can kill him at your leisure."

Wang Xingtian said.

The Vice Hall Master looked at Ye Mo, who seemed at ease, wanting to kill Ye Mo but unable to do so, feeling exceedingly frustrated. Especially considering the Black Bone Fiery Flame, which he obtained through hardships and near-death experiences, and that many admired in the Wraith Clan, now gifted away, leaving him feeling like crying, seething with rage, akin to a volcano ready to erupt at any moment.
