Chapter 213: Skyburn Mountain Range

Despite Ye Mo learning the technique of the Windward Dash, Elder Feng still made him practice in the Divine Wind Pavilion for a few more days. Ye Mo would be able to utilize this technique during actual battles if he managed to truly master the essence of the skill.

The Windward Dash may not be powerful attacking wise, but it could still be an overwhelming and unpredictable technique.

If the Technique of Interchangeability was considered fast, the Windward Dash was an even more mystical technique.

After receiving permission from Elder Feng, Ye Mo returned to the Inner League Spirit Mountain. The training environment in the Inner League was so much better than the Outer League. This trip to the Skyburn Mountain Range was definitely going to be filled with danger. Ye Mo decided to bring his Sky Blood Spear along. Removing the broken spear handle, he replaced it with a normal magical weapon handle.

As the weapon handle was fixed into the spear head, the Sky Blood Spear started to rumble, evidently displeased.

Spirit Weapons had their own spiritual intelligence. While they could not speak, they could express themselves through emotions. The Sky Blood Spear had its own pride and was naturally unwilling to work with a common handle.

It displayed extreme unhappiness even when fixed with the Pure Ice Spear Sheath, which cooled and contained its aggression.

“Wait until we’re at the Skyburn Mountain Range. As I kill more corpses, their death aura and grievances will be a great source of replenishment.”

Ye Mo did not know if the spear head could understand him, but he tried to comfort it like he would to a partner. The Sky Blood Spear then gradually stabilized and calmed down.

Carrying the Sky Blood Spear on his back, Ye Mo headed towards the Inner League Martial Training Hall. The Inner League Martial Training Hall was multiple times bigger than that of the Outer League and was extremely spacious. Plenty of Inner League members could be seen submitting their missions.

There were plenty of Inner League members who had accepted the Skyburn Mountain Range mission, but those league members all worked on the mission in groups and were in the Energy Shaping Fifth or Sixth Realm.

“I want to accept the Skyburn Mountain Range mission!” said Ye Mo.

“You’re an Inner League member? Only Energy Shaping First Realm?” The league member in charge of allocating the missions was in disbelief. It was the first time he saw an Inner League member who was in the Energy Shaping First Realm.

“My name is Ye Mo. This is my mission card!” Ye Mo passed him his silver mission card, identifying himself.

The league member in charge received the card and confirmed Ye Mo’s identity. He could not help but remind him, “You are Ye Mo, am I right? While rumor has it that the tomb of Saint Skyburn is inside the Skyburn Mountain Range, no one knows whether it is true or not. Furthermore, there are countless number of corpses within the mountain range and it is filled with danger. Are you sure you want to go? Once you accept this mission, you will have to complete it. If not, your league points will have to be deducted.”

“Yes, I am going to the Skyburn Mountain Range!” Ye Mo’s tone was filled with determination.

“Very well then. There are three missions: first, execute five dead corpses and collect their brains. Second, execute the Giant Bone Dragon and collect its Dragon Back. Third, find the tomb of Saint Skyburn. Which mission will you be accepting?” asked the league member.

“The first one then,” said Ye Mo.

As per normal, a magical formation was used to travel to the Skyburn Tomb. However, the formation transported him to a city area near the Eastern region, which was the closest location to the Skyburn Tomb.

Taking the map report with him, Ye Mo was transported to that city area via the formation. Those in the city area were extremely respectful towards Ye Mo – an Inner League Qingyun League member clad in training attire meant a significantly high status.

Leaving the area, Ye Mo moved at extremely fast speed, and after one whole day, Ye Mo saw the gigantic mountain range. Its aura was filled with aggression, and it appeared extremely mysterious, with clouds and fog intertwined around it.

However, those auras did not bother Ye Mo. Instead, they would become fuel for the Sky Blood Spear.

Normal league members would have to consume some pills before entering the mountain range in order to avoid the mysterious aura.

Ye Mo felt the danger level of the mountain range as he entered it. In front of him was a swamp land, with countless number of rotting corpses lying in it. It also emitted a foul smell. One could not tell how long those rotting corpses have been there. Perhaps there were league members buried in the swamp as well.

“Had I not learnt the Windward Dash, crossing this rotting swamp would have been problematic.”

As Ye Mo spoke, he prepared to leap across, only to be immediately called by Ling’er to stop.

“You will definitely be dead if you step across. Look at the vines on either side!” said Ling’er.

The two sides of the swamp was filled with vines. Those vines looked withered and yellow, seemingly void of its original life.

Ye Mo kicked a stone into the sky.

Whoosh!

The withered vines immediately came back to life, as if they were spirit snakes. As the stone entered its attacking range, the vines immediately attacked and smashed the stone into pieces. This attack’s power level was comparable to that in the Energy Shaping Fourth Realm.

Seeing what had happened, a Giant Dragon Spear formed in Ye Mo’s hand. The Dragon Spear was covered with a purple spiritual flame and carried a hint of destructive aura.

“I shall set the vines on fire!”

Ye Mo directly struck at the vines. Upon coming into contact with the purple spiritual flame, the vines instantly burnt into pieces. However, this enraged them, and countless number of vines turned toward attacks towards Ye Mo.

“Pure Ice Spear Technique!”

The Dragon Spear disappeared as Ye Mo instantly took out the Sky Blood Spear. Energy poured out, causing a frost aura to spiral out. Countless number of frost spear blades attacked the vines, and they all froze in an instant.

“It should be alright to cross now!”

Holding the Sky Blood Spear, Ye Mo directly stepped on the air above and crossed the giant swamp land.

Suddenly, a grey arm shot out from within the swamp, grabbing at Ye Mo’s ankle. As he looked down, he saw a corpse which had a completely rotted body. The corpse groaned at Ye Mo and attempted to pull him down.

Swish!

A sweep of a spear from Ye Mo’s Sky Blood Spear completely cut off the arm. Ye Mo once again stepped on air and continued crossing the giant swamp.

Following that, corpses and skeletons started to climb out from the swamp. Those corpses gave off a disgusting smell. They were completely naked, with certain body parts and organs totally rotten.

These type of corpses were not completely deceased due to them having some grievances before their passing. Their spirits have long left their bodies, but their consciousness and strength were still present.

“Ahwoooo!” One corpse let out an unknown noise and pounced onto Ye Mo. Even with these corpse skeletons before him, Ye Mo was completely unafraid. Attacking with his Sky Blood Spear, every strike carried the Pure Ice aura and the purple spiritual flame, making the attacks frighteningly strong. In an instant, all the corpse skeletons fell onto the ground.

“These corpse skeletons all have the strength of an Energy Shaping Fourth Realm fighter. If an Energy Shaping Fourth Realm fighter were to come here, he would definitely end up losing his life,” Ye Mo thought to himself. His spear sheath was ultimately from the Million Year Extreme Ice Spear, and his Giant Dragon Power was imbued with the purple spiritual flame. He did not have to think too hard up against Energy Shaping Fourth Realm fighters.

Ye Mo decided to explore deeper. The further he walked into the mountain range, the stronger the devastating aura. This ghastly aura overpowered the Will of the Sky Blood.

“Seeing their attire, those people in front are league members from the Wushuang League!”

Three Wushuang League members were surrounding a giant corpse – it was ten yards tall, with a frightening appearance and glowing eyes, evidently in the Energy Shaping Fifth Realm.

Those three league members attacked the corpse, every strike stabbing into its flesh. One of the corpse’s arm had already been cut off.

It was inevitable that the corpse was going to be killed by the three league members soon.

“Brother Ye Mo, the corner of the corpses’ eyes is giving off a red glow, which means its spiritual flame inside the body is still burning – this is not a corpse from this mountain range, but possibly one that walked out from the tomb of Saint Skyburn instead. Stop them.”
