The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood Chapter 1259 - 1260: Strike Out

On the following day, scouts from the Spirit Martial Camp spotted that the Wraith Camp truly mobilized a massive group of leader-level powerhouses. This compelled the Spirit Martial Camp to send their leaders into guerrilla warfare against the enemies.

With every leader carrying a Lord’s Token, their deaths were instantly reported back to their camp.

The all-out chaotic battle erupted for real!

During the first day, the Spirit Martial Camp suffered 25 leader losses, while the Wraith Camp only lost 11.

The second day proved even worse for the Spirit Martial Camp, losing 32 leaders as opposed to the Wraith Camp's mere 9.

Over two days, a whopping 57 leaders from the Spirit Martial Camp fell. This plunged the camp into deep despair, nearly pushing Li Murong to step in personally.

"Chief Commander, let us go out!"

Right then, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue entered the tent.

"Do you have confidence?"

Li Murong couldn’t resist asking.

"Yes."

Ye Mo nodded firmly. In recent days, though his power hadn’t grown, the array fusion had succeeded, and Xiao Yue, relying on the Book of Soldiers, advanced to the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations. Their battle prowess now matched opening the Fourth Space-Time Gate.

Furthermore, teaming up meant merging the Dragon’s Chant Domain with the Six Paths Halo—Xiao Yue wielded the Profound Heart Technique, while Ye Mo commanded two fused arrays. Perfect coordination would let them slaughter even more leaders.

"Great!"

Li Murong approved with a nod.

The pair geared up to depart the camp. Enemy scouts likely lurked nearby, so they slipped out covertly under night’s cover, using the Space Barrier to hide their presence before leaving.

Once outside, Ye Mo stayed on high alert—the chaotic clashes had raged for two days, with over 50 Spirit Martial Camp leaders down. Foe leaders could easily be lying in wait close by.

"Yueyue, with the night so pitch-black, let’s locate a cave in the nearby mountains and rest until dawn. We strike tomorrow."

Ye Mo scanned the shadowy surroundings warily, knowing peril lurked everywhere beyond the camp.

"Ye Mo, it’s exactly because it’s nighttime that we should act now; they’ve probably holed up in some hidden spot to rest. This is our golden opportunity."

Xiao Yue declared with assurance.

"Let’s set off then!"

Ye Mo agreed, her logic ringing true. Nighttime usually halted operations, creating their perfect window.

"Still, stay cautious."

Xiao Yue cautioned.

"No worries, I can trigger the Eye of the Divine Beast for broad detection and to sense fortune or doom ahead."

Ye Mo peered around, vaguely making out distant mountain mounds, unsure if deadly leaders hid inside.

"Yue Yue, hold up—we shouldn’t advance. The Eye of the Divine Beast warns of dire peril ahead; mighty foes might lurk there."

Ye Mo stopped short.

The duo swiftly shifted course, traversing the Blood Prison Battlefield.

"Hmm?"

Ye Mo frowned once more and remarked, "That far-off mountain hides some covert energy pulse."

Xiao Yue sent her Heart Spirit Strength probing outward, immediately sensing a leader concealed in the mountain. It wasn’t Xuan Aura but Wraith Energy, marking a Wraith Camp leader in hiding.

"Hide your aura and rush in!"

Xiao Yue ordered, as they both masked their auras and closed in on the mountain.

They soon arrived at the base, where a cave lay hidden below. Xiao Yue unleashed the Profound Heart Technique and the Six Paths Halo, which raced toward the cave, while the Mystical Immortal Fairy darted inside at once.

Slash!

The foe didn’t even cry out before perishing utterly.

Ye Mo dashed up too, sweeping his hand to gather wisps of soul origin.

All in all, their debut kill proved stunningly effective; Xiao Yue’s Six Paths Halo made fleeing all but impossible.

All night long, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue hunted down ten leaders—one got away, but the other nine fell to the pair, including a powerhouse with the Fourth Space-Time Gate open, whom they jointly dispatched.

In a single night, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue soloed nine leaders, equaling the Spirit Martial Camp’s full daily tally. Reporting this triumph back would electrify the camp.

As dawn crept in, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue halted and went into hiding.

"Ye Mo, considering the state of things, I bet no Spirit Martial Camp leaders have ventured into Wraith Camp lands. If we sneak into their turf covertly, we could bag even more leaders, right?"

Xiao Yue proposed.

The battlefield now heavily favored the Wraith Camp, their leaders breaching the Abyssal Boundary into Spirit Martial territory. Infiltrating theirs would catch them utterly off-guard.

"But flying straight over is insanely risky."

Ye Mo pointed out.

Such infiltration carried huge dangers, yet it merited attempting. Still, soaring over the enormous abyss spelled extreme peril.

"We’ll fly across when the coast is clear."

Xiao Yue said steadily.

"Look, right there past us lies the Abyssal Boundary—but Wraith Camp leaders still zip overhead."

Ye Mo and Xiao Yue crouched hidden in the grass for now.

The abyss stretched across this battlefield, unfathomably deep, devouring any who tumbled in without mercy.

After a long wait, with no other leaders in sight, Ye Mo and Xiao Yue surged forward without delay, crossing the Abyssal Boundary into Wraith Camp domain in a flash.

But the moment they touched down, Ye Mo felt off—as though enemies had already pinpointed them.

"Heh, Spirit Martial Camp leaders bold enough to invade Wraith Camp turf—they’re begging for death!"

Abruptly, two figures—one ahead, one behind—barred Ye Mo and Xiao Yue, rising from the earth like ghosts, not burrowing up through a tunnel.

Ye Mo clocked them as earth-attribute cultivators, merged seamlessly into the ground.

"Jin Tu, strike! Slay them both and we claim two more merits!"

The silver-skinned man bellowed.

"Haha!"

Jin Tu, the burly fellow, smashed both palms down, shaking the earth fiercely. Huge boulders erupted like mini-mountains, hovering thickly in the air to encase Ye Mo and Xiao Yue, poised to imprison them.
