The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1386 - 1387: The Environment of the Dead Soul Domain

"Could it be that the reason the Wraith Demon Emperor refused to tell me is because of this?"

Ye Mo exclaimed in shock.

"It’s not just that. Even if you go to the Dead Soul Domain, you may not be able to obtain the Divine Soul Fruit. And do you know how dangerous it is to go to the Dead Soul Domain?"

Shaking her head, Mengxin said gravely, "Even for me now, going to the Dead Soul Domain is extremely dangerous."

"How is that possible?"

Ye Mo looked shocked.

"In the Dead Soul Domain, only a Soul Body can enter, did you hear?"

Mengxin gave Ye Mo another heavy piece of news: "When a Soul Body enters the Dead Soul Domain, if it suffers any attack, the spirit can be directly annihilated. You could say that the Soul Bodies that survive in the Dead Soul Domain are exceptionally powerful."

Spiritual attacks are different from physical attacks, with few existing that can challenge others beyond their level—basically, if someone is a rank higher than you, they can kill you in one move.

"Hiss!"

Hearing this, Ye Mo couldn’t help but take a breath of cold air, for the Soul Body is much more fragile than the flesh. For instance, Ye Mo could use a spiritual attack to kill a Third Layer Martial Artist in one hit, but one stroke might not be enough to kill a Divine Venerable Five Souls expert.

"So, you don’t need to consider going to the Dead Soul Domain just yet. With your current level of soul cultivation, you might not survive for three days in the Dead Soul Domain."

Indeed, soul cultivation requires absorbing soul origins, and destroying Soul Bodies is a way to collect soul origins. Someone like Ye Mo, with soul cultivation reaching the Third Layer, would undoubtedly be targeted and killed as soon as he enters the Dead Soul Domain.

Of course, Martial Artists with Soul Bodies also dare not act rashly, because releasing spiritual attacks once or twice is a huge drain on themselves, and someone nearby could be ready to ambush you.

"I understand!"

Ye Mo nodded. He had to go to the Dead Soul Domain for sure; there were many mysteries there, not to mention he might see deceased friends and, most importantly, Ye Qing. Why his father resurrected could only be explored by going to the Dead Soul Domain.

Of course, saying anything now is pointless; the key is to enhance his strength.

As long as he completes tasks, he could get Ascending Soul Pills, which is also a shortcut to improve soul cultivation.

After listening to some teachings from Mengxin, Ye Mo directly left the Mountain of Wraith.

Next, Ye Mo planned on how to acquire more Ascending Soul Pills. These pills were used by the Wraith Clan to motivate disciples, and their quantity was strictly controlled.

Ye Mo was also preparing to enter seclusion to break through to the Divine Venerate Three Souls realm, but Dantai Zanglian had a plan to carry out an epic-level mission, so he still had to ask Dantai Zanglian about the execution of this task.

Though epic-level missions are hard and much hyped, they didn’t intimidate Ye Mo; he had been to difficult places before. Wasn’t he still alive and well now?

Ye Mo, emerging from the Mountain of Wraith, directly returned to Dantai Zanglian’s pavilion. Inside the pavilion were two more people, both of whom were at the Divine Venerable Five Souls Realm.

One of them, dressed in white, had very long hair and a red spot between his brows. His appearance was so gentle that at first glance, one would absolutely think he was a woman.

On the other hand, the other person’s style was completely different. Wearing a suit of black armor, with a fiery red cloak draped over his back, his figure was burly, making Wang Wei Wu look weak in comparison.

And the three of them were sitting in the hall, discussing matters. When they saw Ye Mo return, Dantai Zanglian stood up and pointed to the man in white, saying, "Ye Xiao, let me introduce you. This is Li Xiuyuan, the second on the Earth List Core Disciples, and over there is Qin Yong, first on the list."

"Li Xiuyuan, Qin Yong, this is Ye Xiao I mentioned to you. He is now the godson of Supreme Elder Mengxin, at the Divine Venerate Two-Soul realm, but he can challenge the Divine Venerable Five Souls across ranks."

Dantai Zanglian said.

"Ye Xiao, you haven’t been at the Wraith Clan for long, yet news about you has spread throughout the clan. They’ve been saying you made quite an impression at the Punishment Chambers. No disciple has been as impressive as you in years."

Qin Yong laughed heartily.

"Not at all!"

Ye Mo cupped his hands.

"Ye Xiao, I heard you claim you want to surpass Wang Wei Wu in status and strength, and it seems that day is coming soon. I think you’d better challenge him sooner and take his fourth place on the Earth List. That Wang Wei Wu covets our positions. We live in fear every day."

Li Xiuyuan’s voice was extremely gentle, more womanly than even Dantai Zanglian’s.

"Are you afraid he might challenge you?"

Ye Mo asked.

"If it were a straightforward challenge, ten Wang Wei Wus wouldn’t be my match. But that guy plays dirty tricks behind your back. Didn’t the Puppet Taoist nearly kill you the last time you were on a mission?"

Qin Yong said.

Wang Wei Wu knew he wasn’t a match for the top three openly, so he resorted to playing dirty tricks, and they were well aware of it.

"Challenging Wang Wei Wu now, I’m still a bit lacking in strength."

Ye Mo admitted honestly, having already gauged Wang Wei Wu’s strength from their previous encounter.

"Ye Xiao, get out here!"

At this moment, a loud shout came from outside—it was Wang Wei Wu’s voice.

"What’s that guy doing here?"

Qin Yong asked in confusion.

"I’m not sure, let’s go out and see!"

Ye Mo stepped out of the pavilion and saw Wang Wei Wu standing not far away, with thick brows and an upright stance, roaring at Ye Mo, "Ye Xiao, what trick did you use this time to make Elder Mengxin recognize you as a godson? Come clean. You’re just a new disciple of the Wraith Clan and have the gall to influence the Supreme Elder, an unforgivable act."

He couldn’t believe how Ye Mo became Mengxin’s godson—it was like a beggar arriving in the city and instantly becoming the Crown Prince, an absolutely impossible thing.

This Ye Mo must have played some trick.

Following behind Wang Wei Wu, the elite disciples looking at Ye Xiao had unfriendly expressions.

"A new disciple of the clan, becoming Elder Mengxin’s godson—he must have used some means."

"Indeed, such means are beyond us. It’s like climbing a high branch directly."

The chatter grew louder, each remark dripping with sarcasm, painting Ye Mo as a cunning villain.

"Let me teach those brats a lesson."

Qin Yong, too, was red with anger at Wang Wei Wu and was ready to act immediately.

"There’s no need for you, Senior Brother Qin Yong."

Ye Mo waved his hand and walked up slowly, smiling, "Wang Wei Wu, you only have the guts to cause trouble in front of me. If you have guts, go to the Mountain of Wraith and yell in front of my godmother’s pavilion: ’Elder Mengxin, are you blind, accepting such trash as a godson? You might as well have taken me.’"

When he reached the end of his sentence, Ye Mo imitated Wang Wei Wu’s voice, making many disciples around clutch their bellies in laughter.
