The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1424 - 1425: Heading to the Dan Clan

"Aren’t you coming with us to the Wraith Clan?"

Yang Rong couldn’t help but ask.

"I still have some matters to attend to in Dan City, I want to purchase some herbal ingredients and can’t return to the Wraith Clan just yet."

Ye Mo said.

"What herbs do you want to buy? Our Yang family clan should have them."

Yang Rong looked at Ye Mo, couldn’t help but ask.

"Soul Spirit Grass, Silver Frost Grass."

"Aren’t those the materials for refining the Heavenly Spirit Resurrection Pill? I’m afraid only the Dan Clan would have such materials."

"Where is the Dan Clan?"

Ye Mo only knew about the Dan Clan, but not where their main camp was. He still vividly remembered the day when the Pill Saint dispatched a large number of experts to besiege him, and the Dan Clan stripped him of his Alchemist champion title. Now that his cultivation was complete, it was time for revenge.

"The Dan Clan’s territory is in the Hundred Herb Mountains, not far from Dan City. The Dan Clan is about to hold another Alchemy competition; it’s said they want to re-select an Alchemy champion. This time, the Dan Clan spread the word wide: the champion produced from this Alchemy competition will be auctioned off, and the highest bidder will have the right to recruit them. Many hidden forces are going to the Dan Clan to try their luck in recruiting the Alchemy competition champion."

Yang Rong said.

"This Dan Clan is truly ambitious."

Ye Mo sneered.

"This Alchemy competition will be hosted by the Pill Saint, so there shouldn’t be a lack of participating Alchemists."

Listening to Yang Rong’s words, Ye Mo’s face showed a trace of malice, "Pill Saint, you old rascal, almost got me killed that day. This time, not only will I kill you, but I’ll also ensure that your reputation is ruined, so everyone sees your ugly face."

"Yang Rong, why don’t you accompany me to the Dan Clan?"

Ye Mo said.

"You’re going to the Dan Clan?"

Yang Rong was startled, seemingly realizing what Ye Mo intended to do.

"Yes!"

Ye Mo nodded.

"Go, of course, go, my Rongrong will certainly not refuse."

Yang Zu laughed heartily, eager to send Yang Rong out immediately.

"Ancestor, what are you saying?"

Yang Rong blushed slightly, clearly embarrassed.

"In that case, let’s all go our separate ways!"

Ye Mo didn’t think much of it.

Yang Rong also made some preparations, then left Dan City with Ye Mo, heading towards the Dan Clan.

Dan City is located in the Hundred Herb Mountains, so named because many rare herbs grow in the mountains. Previously, the Hundred Herb Mountains were unclaimed territory, but once discovered by the Dan Clan, they moved their main camp directly to the mountains. Many Alchemists wanting to gather herbs there are directly stopped.

Even the Dead Soul Royal Family and the Wraith Clan can’t handle the Dan Clan since their two families’ Alchemists aren’t native but were hired from the Dan Clan.

"Is this the Hundred Herb Mountains? It’s truly a paradise for Alchemists."

At first glance of the Hundred Herb Mountains, Ye Mo smelled the scent of herbs from within the mountains, and with one sniff, he could distinguish at least a hundred types of herbs.

"The Dan Clan is not only skilled in Alchemy; their methods of cultivating herbs are also extraordinary."

Yang Rong said calmly.

Ye Mo and Yang Rong descended simultaneously, landing on a small peak. Then their gaze shifted to see a huge black archway at the center of the mountains, with an interdimensional rift inside. Clearly, this Blackstone Archway was the gateway to the Dan Clan’s realm.

Typically, many clans create their own spaces.

However, neither the Wraith Clan nor the Dead Soul Royal Family created spaces, as spaces facilitate escape if enemies invade. By sealing the space, you can’t find the Dan Clan without spatial coordinates.

But for clans like the Wraith Clan and Dead Soul Royal Family, no one dares to target them.

"Yang Rong, you participate in the competition, I’ll disguise myself as your Pill Refining Powder."

Ye Mo planned.

"Yes!"

Yang Rong nodded.

At this moment, figures were continually flying in from the air and distance, landing by the Blackstone Archway. After verifying their identities, the guards allowed them through.

"Let’s go over there too!"

Ye Mo said, flashing his body, and the two landed directly in front of the Blackstone Archway.

Seeing visitors, the Dan Clan guard barred them with a spear, saying coldly, "To enter the Dan Clan, state your origins."

"I am Yang Rong of the Yang Family from Dan City, here to participate in the Alchemy competition."

Yang Rong said calmly.

"Yang Family of Dan City."

The guard scrutinized the two without suspicion, then said, "You two may enter; someone will guide you to register for the competition."

The two nodded and entered the archway. As space shifted, their eyes blurred momentarily, and they found themselves in a field of medicinal plants, with a hundred-zhang wide road in the middle, where many people were already gathering.

"If you two are here to watch the Alchemy competition, follow us. If you’re participating in the competition, wait here!"

Just as they entered the Dan Clan, a Dan Clan disciple approached.

"I’m here for the Alchemy competition."

Yang Rong said.

"Then please wait here quietly; the Alchemy competition will start in a day."

The Dan Clan disciple said and left the two of them.

Ye Mo surveyed the surroundings; aside from the ten-zhang wide road, in the distance, the mist cleared to reveal towering mountains with clusters of buildings standing like Pillars of Heaven.

No doubt, this road leads to the Dan Clan.

"The Dan Clan is really arrogant, leaving us outside in the cold and not letting us cultivate at their inner square,"

"But they’re the Dan Clan, famous far and wide. We need their favor to gain rankings, risking their wrath might lead to disqualification."

"Indeed. I heard last Alchemy competition’s champion, Ye Mo, refused to be the Pill Saint’s disciple, which is why the Dan Clan stripped his title. Come on, he’d crafted many supreme elixirs; how could he cheat?"

"Exactly, even cheating requires supreme elixirs. If the Pill Saint can’t produce them, how could anyone cheat?"

"The Dan Clan wants to monopolize powerful Alchemists and control the entire field. But we have no choice; under their roof, we must bow."

Some Alchemists who came for the competition started grumbling discontentedly.

"Who’s making such a racket, do you have a death wish?"

At that moment, a big man in black armor approached with guards. All the Alchemists’ discussions reached his ears.

"Was it you who said that just now?"

The big man pointed at a man in loose robes, saying coldly.

"What do you want?"

The man felt the big man’s killing aura, panicking.

"Repeat what you said!"

The big man demanded coldly.

"The Dan Clan folks are truly arrogant. We, Dragon Scale Valley, have now witnessed it. What they’ve done, they’re afraid to let others talk about?"

At this point, a man in Dragon Scale Battle Armor stepped from the crowd, face full of disdain.
