Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Mo and Hu Fei were fleeing in the same direction with Ye Mo following close behind Hu Fei. They traveled through a multitude of mountain ranges before finally hiding at an extremely concealed location inside a cave. This particular mountain range was surrounded by layers of miasma and mist, and one would have difficulty seeing clearly here.

“Senior Hu, what is this place?” Ye Mo asked in astonishment. The environment here was extremely vile. The dusky mist blocked his line of sight, and his senses couldn’t even penetrate the layers of miasma.

“Ye Mo, this is the most dangerous place near Ancient Martial City, known as the Skywolf Mountain Range. This mountain range has an extremely odd miasma surrounding it and within the depths of this mountain range, True Energy Realm beasts can be found. This is an extremely dangerous place. Even a Heaven’s Gate Realm expert won’t be able to sense us here. So long as we don’t enter the depths of this mountain range, that Sima Liang will never be able to find us,” Hu Fei said

“Brother Ye Mo, the environment here is very odd indeed. Even a Heaven’s Gate Realm won’t be able to sense the condition here. This is indeed a safe place to hide,” Ling’er spoke within Ye Mo’s Energy Center.

“True Energy Realm beasts? How strong are those beasts?” Ye Mo asked inwardly.

“True Energy Realm beasts will at least be as strong as a True Energy Realm human while the stronger ones among them reach as high as the level of Spirit Devour Realm. If you encounter a beast at this level, you won’t even be able to run. It only needs to open its mouth to drag you in from a distance of about 300 feet away and swallow you with a single bite,” Ling’er said.

Beasts were the same as warriors as they could cultivate as well. Beasts at the True Energy Realm were already as smart as a human. Not only do they attack humans, they even hunt humans, practice martial techniques, and speak human language.

Some of the comparatively powerful beasts were in fact the offspring of the primordial beasts. They inherited the martial techniques of their ancestors and had terrifying strength.

The higher their cultivation level, the more terrifying the beasts were. A warrior at the same level did not need to bother trying to fight the beast. Rather, it was best for the warrior to simply flee.

Ye Mo inhaled a mouthful of air in shock. Then, he clasped his hands towards Hu Fei and said, “Senior Hu, thank you for your help. I will definitely keep this favor close to my heart.”

“This is the request of the two young masters. In any case, if you hadn’t devoured Sima Liang’s clone, we wouldn’t have been able to escape anyway. What cultivation method have you practiced? It seems extremely powerful, allowing you to directly devour True Energy. Even my Hu Clan’s cultivation method could only devour a bit of the opponent’s True Energy. But you can actually devour everything,” Hu Fei said.

“This is a secret of mine. I hope Senior Hu won’t ask too much about it,” Ye Mo replied.

Rustle! Rustle!

Suddenly, some sounds could be heard from outside the cave. A huge shadow flashed past. Then, the miasma and mist outside the cave were blown away. Slowly, the shadow crawled in their direction.

“It’s a dark attribute beast, Earthdemon Spider!” Within his Energy Center, Ling’er’s voice sounded. She sounded anxious, yet at the same time, she sounded excited.

This huge beast was an Earthdemon Spider. It had a huge build and was about 90 feet tall. Its entire body was black and had a metallic gloss on it. It had eight legs while its mouth kept spitting out spider webs without stopping. It looked incredibly fierce. This Earthdemon Spider seemed to have noticed Ye Mo and Hu Fei. With its eight legs, it slowly approached them while leaving deep imprints on the ground it stepped on.

Ye Mo could sense that this Earthdemon Spider was at least at Energy Shaping Eight Realm or even Ninth Realm. This was the strongest beast Ye Mo had seen up to now.

“I had just entered Energy Shaping Fifth Realm. Let me test this Earthdemon Spider out.” Ye Mo had no fear as he looked at the Earthdemon Spider. He directly shot out of the cave and instantly formed a Dragon Spear in his hand.

The Earthdemon Spider had an intelligence comparable to a human. When it noticed that there were two preys in the cave, it decided to investigate the cave. When it saw Ye Mo charging out the cave in such an aggressive manner, it was completely infuriated.

For an Energy Shaping Fifth Realm warrior to charge at it like this, this was no different than an insult.

The Earthdemon Spider screeched. Then, a whirlpool formed around it. The air twisted while the vegetation and stones around them started flying wildly in the air before being sucked into the whirlpool and crushed.

Ye Mo was pulled in by the whirlpool as well. Slowly, his body approached it. The Earthdemon Spider howled again, looking overjoyed. Then, it opened its huge mouth. Disgusting-looking liquid started dripping out of its mouth. With its mouth opened wide, it waited for Ye Mo’s arrival.

“This pulling force is quite scary.” Ye Mo felt like even getting free of this pulling force was difficult, let alone actually attacking this beast. Therefore, he directly stepped on thin air and shot up into the air. Then, he stabbed out with his Dragon Spear. Purple-colored flames curled around his spear as he unleashed the Sky Blood Cycle technique, creating a whirlpool of Sky Blood. Then, his whirlpool clashed with the beast’s whirlpool. The collision created numerous vacuums in the air around them.

The collision was incredibly violent, and Ye Mo was sent flying away. As for the Earthdemon Spider, it belly landed on the ground below it on its belly.

Ye Mo slammed his spear on the ground to send himself at the Earthdemon Spider again. Then, he stabbed at the Earthdemon Spider’s leg. As he stabbed, he erupted with 200 strains of Dragon Power.

With a single attack, Ye Mo sliced off one of the Earthdemon Spider’s legs. Dark green liquid sprayed out. The Earthdemon Spider howled in pain. The other seven legs started waving around and attacked Ye Mo incessantly. Ye Mo blocked the attacks calmly and did not panic at all.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a gray radiance slashed past the air, cleaving through even the layers of mist in the air. Then, a piercing sound rang out. Next, the huge body of the Earthdemon Spider was split into two. A huge shockwave spread everywhere, a cloud of bloody mist rose up, and a pitch black heart-stone flew out. Even Ye Mo was shocked by this astonishing attack.

Ye Mo first grabbed at the heart-stone. Then, he turned and spoke to Hu Fei. “Senior Hu, I am capable of dealing with this Earthdemon Spider. Why did you help?”

“This Earthdemon Spider had a loud voice. I was afraid that it would attract more spiders. If a True Energy Realm Earthdemon Spider came as a result, none of us can hope to survive,” Hu Fei said.

“I see. Allow me to be shameless and keep this heart-stone.” Ye Mo stowed the heart-stone into his Dimensional Bracelet. He already had three second rank heart-stones gathered. He only needed seven more. Hu Batian had also promised to trade him three second rank heart-stones of the dark attribute when they returned to the Qingyun League.

With five more dark attribute heart-stones, he would be able to complete Xuan Ji’s mission. They stayed in the cave for half a day.

Later that evening, the sun began to set.

Suddenly, a black radiance flashed past. A huge Wind Wolf collapsed onto the ground. It twitched for a bit before it died.

“Haha, Senior Hu, this will be our dinner.” Ye Mo directly grabbed onto the Wind Wolf’s tail and dragged it into the cave.

This Wind Wolf was similar in strength to the Wind King Wolf Ye Mo had encountered when he entered the Spirit Valley previously. In the past, he was absolutely no match for a beast like this. But now, he could kill a beast like this with a single attack.

One could say that in half a year, Ye Mo had transformed from a warrior who hadn’t even opened a single Mortal Gate to an existence capable of easily killing a Wind King Wolf. Inside the cave, they made a bonfire and started feasting on wolf meat. They had decided to return to Ancient Martial City early morning tomorrow.
