Chapter 219: One Spear Instant Kill
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Absorbing Saint Skyburn’s Clone, Ye Mo once again awakened another 200 Dragon Powers. Right this moment, Ye Mo had a total of 600 Dragon Powers in his body, almost surpa.s.sing an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warrior.
Ye Mo even had faint signs of another breakthrough to the Energy Shaping Third Realm, even though he had just advanced into the Energy Shaping Second Realm.
This Dragon Power awakening experience was definitely the scariest one after Ye Mo had reached the Energy Shaping Realm.
Absorbing the True Energy Clone that Saint Skyburn had created before his death had awakened 200 Dragon Powers, and for Ye Mo to awaken this many Dragon Powers again in one go was very difficult.
Such immense energy was hard to chance upon again, and awakening one or two Dragon Power was a no-go now. It was now necessary for Ye Mo to save up his absorbed energy to a certain extent then awaken over 100 Dragon Powers at once.
After absorbing Saint Skyburn’s True Energy, the Primordial Gold Stick also fell from the sky. Ye Mo instantly treaded through the air and caught the Primordial Gold Stick in his hands.
Ye Mo held onto the Primordial Gold Stick, and because Saint Skyburn was already dead, the Primordial Gold Stick was a little unstable. After all, it was a weapon with a soul, so it was natural for it to feel unhappy after the death of its previous master.
“You might have your own intelligence, but I’ll subdue you over time!”
With the Sky Blood Spear in one hand and the Primordial Gold Stick in the other, Ye Mo was ready to leave the Skyburn Tomb. As he had already got his hands on the weapon, there was no reason for him to stay behind.
All of a sudden, a cold voice was heard. “Kid, to think that you’ve actually managed to escape from their pursuit and have also secured the Primordial Gold Stick! Now hurry up and hand over the Primordial Gold Stick.” It belonged to the armor-clad Ancient Corpse that had fled shortly after a battle with Ye Mo earlier.
This Energy Shaping Sixth Realm Ancient Corpse was clearly not together with the True Energy Realm Ancient Corpse.
“What? Did you think that you could leave Skyburn Tomb with the Primordial Gold Stick?”
Seeing Ye Mo remain indifferent, the Ancient Corpse continued, “From our battle earlier, you should’ve already seen the difference between you and me. Now hand over the Primordial Gold Stick then scram back to where you came from. This is the Skyburn Tomb. It’s not a place where the likes of you can casually tread.”
“You want the Primordial Gold Stick? Sure, since I just had a breakthrough in my powers, I’ll take this chance and use you as my training dummy!”
Ye Mo swung his hand and threw the Primordial Gold Stick. It became like a golden ray of light as it shot towards the Ancient Corpse. The Ancient Corpse couldn’t help but feel happy when he saw that Ye Mo was actually giving him the Primordial Gold Stick, then he stuck out his hand to catch the Primordial Gold Stick.
“Ha ha, I’ve finally gotten hold of the Primordial Gold Stick! I’ve finally got a Spirit Weapon!” The Ancient Corpse floated up in the air, looking at the Primordial Gold Stick that was in his hands.
“Then you can go and die!”
After Ye Mo threw the Primordial Gold Stick, he darted through the air and appeared right before the Ancient Corpse.
Ye Mo stabbed out with his spear. The stab was unreal. 120 Dragon Powers were channeled into his right hand’s entrance causing the attack to far exceed the Energy Shaping Sixth Realm.
That stab was like the resurgence of the Ancient Beasts, like the descent of the Primordial Beasts in the mortal world. The Purple Flame Spirit Qi wrapped around the unsheathed Sky Blood Spear. Purple Qi raged about, and the Evil Energy surged. Ye Mo was shrouded in countless Blood Qi, looking like the Sky Blood Lady, herself had descended to wipe out all evil in this world.
The power of one spear!
It broke through the Ancient Corpse’s layers of defense, directly shattering the st.u.r.dy armor and piercing into its body.
Just as a smile appeared on the Ancient Corpse’s hideous face, its expression immediately turned into disbelief.
A league member that it had completely overpowered was now no longer what he used to be. Just one spear was all it took for Ye Mo to pierce through it. The purple vapor, which had enveloped the Ancient Corpse, instantly burned his flesh into nothing.
The pair of black colored wings on its back disappeared, and the Ancient Corpse fell from mid-air. Its body was now unrecognizable from the burns, and its pair of eyes looked at Ye Mo with disbelief. It just couldn’t comprehend how Ye Mo was able to unleash such a devastating attack.
“How could he become so strong in such a short span of time?” muttered the Ancient Corpse as it lay collapsed on the floor. Moments after, it looked at the Primordial Gold Stick that was laying beside it and laughed pitifully. “My Primordial Gold Stick!”
The Dead Corpse slowly extended its fair-skinned arm towards the Primordial Gold Stick before it just stopped moving, clearly showing that it was already dead.
“That guy’s not an Ancient Corpse!”
Ye Mo finally figured out that this person had disguised himself as an Ancient Corpse just to get his hands on Saint Skyburn’s Primordial Gold Stick. It had been waiting for more powerful fighters to come for the Primordial Gold Stick so he could find an opportunity to strike and take advantage of them.
An Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warrior didn’t hesitate to go to such lengths for a Spirit Weapon.
“Saint Skyburn, raging flames that burn the sky, you shall lay at rest down here while I’ll keep the Primordial Gold Stick for you.”
With that said, Ye Mo opened up his hand and a ball of Purple Flame Spirit Qi appeared on his palm, then it headed straight for Saint Skyburn’s huge body.
Boom!
Under Ye Mo’s control, the Purple Flame Spirit Qi gradually spread out and enveloped Saint Skyburn’s body.
However, a magical scene unfolded. The Purple Flame Spirit Qi only incinerated Saint Skyburn’s Phoenix Purple-Gold Crown, Golden Chainmail Armor, and its pair of Cloud-treading shoes. The rest of its body was undamaged.
“How is this possible? The Purple Flame Spirit Qi is a flame that’s not any weaker than h.e.l.lfire, why is it not working against Saint Skyburn?” said Ye Mo with a surprised tone.
“Could Saint Skyburn be one of the Four Spiritual Monkeys, the Intelligent Stone Monkey?”
Ling’er instantly figured everything out. She said, “That’s right, it’s the Intelligent Stone Monkey. The Intelligent Stone Family is said to have been born from a stone, but what they cultivate is their Flame Element and their body is completely integrated with their Flame Element, so no flames can harm them. Skyburn refers to their powers when they reach their peak; they had the ability to burn the skies.”
“I’ve already seen two out of the four Spiritual Monkeys, and since it’s also a Demonic Beast, it should have a Heart-stone. A Spirit Devour Realm Heart-stone, what will it be like?” Finis.h.i.+ng his words, Ye Mo stowed the Purple Flame Spirit Qi back inside his body then stabbed his spear towards its head.
Clang!
When Ye Mo’s spearhead struck Saint Skyburn’s head, it was just like stabbing a st.u.r.dy iron wall. He couldn’t even penetrate it. Now if Ye Mo was unable to damage Saint Skyburn’s body, there was no need to mention about its Heart-stone.
“Not only is the entire body of a Spirit Devour Realm warrior strengthened with True Energy, but it also has the force of Heaven’s Strength integrated into it. So, just its body alone isn’t something I can damage,” said Ye Mo.
“Brother Ye Mo, try using your Flame Element Yuanli!” said Ling’er from within Ye Mo’s Energy Center.
“Not even the Purple Flame Spirit Qi is working. Can my Flame Element Yuanli be of any use?”
“Give it a try.”
With his Flame Element Yuanli, Ye Mo formed a spear and thrust it towards Saint Skyburn’s head. A strange scene then unfolded. The Fire Yuanli Spear actually managed to pierce into Saint Skyburn’s head. Then, Saint Skyburn’s body burst into flames and illuminated the entire Ancient Tomb.
“I couldn’t even burn the body with my Purple Flame Spirit Qi, but my Fire Element Yuanli actually managed to light it up so easily?” Ye Mo was dumbfounded.
“Brother Ye Mo, I’ve finally figured it out. Your Five-Elements Energy is definitely related to the Four Spiritual Monkeys!
