The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood Chapter 1293 - 1294: Disappearance of the Power of Laws
Previously on The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood...
With the vanishing of the law's power, no force now restrains this space, leading to the complete opening of this passage.
The assembled crowd watched this spectacle, their minds reeling and unable to process the events for an extended period.
Members of the Wraith Camp rose to their feet, their hearts brimming with exhilaration and intense excitement, while the Spirit Martial Camp's recent elation from their victory was instantly extinguished.
Rumble!
The Illusory Transcendence Skyline met the white-bearded elder. This was the Soul Calamity, a trial only initiated upon ascending to the Divine Venerate Realm. All present could feel the white-bearded elder's aura surge upwards.
"Haha, I have finally ascended to the Divine Venerate Realm! When I entered the Vanquishing Martial Realm in years past, I had already hit the bottleneck of the Demi-Honored state. Now, with the law's power gone, I've instantly become a Divine Venerate."
The white-bearded elder, now a Divine Venerable One Soul, radiated a powerful aura, completely disregarding Ye Mo.
"Now that I have reached the Divine Venerable One Soul stage, I shall eliminate this prodigy and bring renown to our Wraith Land!"
With these words, the white-bearded elder produced a staff and, with immense force, lunged at Ye Mo.
Previously, when he was merely a Demi-Honored practitioner, he wouldn't have dared to provoke Ye Mo. However, he now felt an unshakeable confidence.
Yet, what transpired next left him utterly astounded.
His forceful strike connected with Ye Mo, but the latter remained completely unmoved, as if his attack had no effect.
Ye Mo effortlessly caught the white-bearded elder's staff, a cold smile gracing his lips. "Do you truly believe you can kill me simply because you've reached the Divine Venerate Realm? Even if you were to ascend to Divine Venerable Three Souls, you might still not be my equal."
The Immortal-Slaying Thunder Fist was unleashed with ferocious power, causing the white-bearded elder to spew forth old blood. His previously boosted aura began to rapidly diminish.
Witnessing this, a vast majority of the onlookers found it impossible to believe what they were seeing. In their eyes, the Vanquishing Martial Realm offered no path to the Divine Venerate Realm, making the Divine Venerate Realm the absolute pinnacle of existence.
But now, a practitioner who had reached this supreme Divine Venerate Realm was being effortlessly subdued by Ye Mo, shattering their fundamental understanding of the world. This seemingly insurmountable realm was being dismantled with astonishing ease.
The disparity wasn't due to the weakness of the Divine Venerate Realm itself, but rather due to Ye Mo's overwhelming strength. The sheer might of his Perfect Soul Body was simply beyond comprehension.
"Impossible! I have ascended to the Divine Venerate Realm! I am a true Divine Venerate powerhouse!"
The white-bearded elder felt utterly helpless before Ye Mo. He had harbored the hope of slaying Ye Mo and presenting his head to the Soul Master, only to be so decisively crushed.
"Die!"
Ye Mo's punch obliterated the white-bearded elder into scattered fragments. However, the dissipated flesh and blood began to reform within the void, attempting to reconstruct a physical form, with a recovery rate far surpassing that of a Demi-Honored practitioner.
Ye Mo swiftly seized the elder's translucent soul body and, with a crushing grip, instantly ended its existence.
It had to be acknowledged that the Soul Collecting Technique proved exceptionally effective. Without its assistance, dispatching even a Demi-Honored cultivator, let alone a Divine Venerate, would not have been so straightforward.
"Everyone, the array's power within the Vanquishing Martial Realm has dissipated. We should make our immediate return to the Lingwu Continent; there is no longer any reason to linger here," Ye Mo declared loudly, having also secured the Sword Light Armor and the Suppression Celestial Seal.
"Return to Lingwu!"
Without further engagement with the remnants of the Wraith Camp, their victory secured, Ye Mo saw no need for further annihilation, granting them a chance to retreat. The conflicts that lay ahead promised to be far more arduous.
Ye Mo led the various lords in a full-scale withdrawal from the Blood Prison Battlefield, while Hsiao Wuqing and Yang Suxin coordinated with their respective territories, ensuring an orderly return to the Lingwu Continent.
Far to the south of the Tianwu Kingdom, on the Lingwu Continent.
At this precise moment, the passage that formerly required a grand array to activate was now fully and clearly visible.
The leaders of the Six Great Powers stood in eager anticipation, their gazes fixed intently upon the revealed passage.
With the cessation of the law's power, the ongoing internal conflict had reached its expected conclusion, with both factions poised to return to their respective territories.
"Someone is emerging!"
A practitioner associated with one of the major powers announced, drawing immediate attention.
Instantly, all eyes swiveled towards the passage as a steady stream of individuals began to emerge from its depths.
Leading the vanguard was Ye Mo himself, adorned in the somber Solitary Darkness Cloak.
Accompanying him were esteemed representatives from several prominent families.
"It's Ye Mo!"
"Mu Wanqing is here, and so is Mo Bufan!"
"Haha, Jiumo Dao is also alive!"
"Wuqing has also returned safely! They are all alive – it’s simply beyond belief!"
"Indeed, and it appears their combat prowess has all seen a significant enhancement."
The onlookers observed the procession emerging from the passage, each individual harboring an expression of utter astonishment. It seemed improbable that all ten of them would return unscathed, yet here they were, safe and sound.
"This is truly a miracle! We have no idea what transpired within the Vanquishing Martial Realm."
Ancestor Bodhi was also present, naturally, among the waiting party.
"Mo'er!"
Zi Ning stepped forward to welcome her son, and the leaders of the other families greeted their respective geniuses.
"Mother, we have returned!"
Ye Mo approached Zi Ning, a smile on his face as he spoke. Xiao Yue stood by his side, also beaming.
"Mo'er, it's truly wonderful that you could make it back. Hmm, what is your current realm?"
Zi Ning inquired, a hint of confusion in her tone.
"Demi-Honored!"
Ye Mo responded with a confident smile.
"Yueyue, it appears your strength has also seen an improvement."
Zi Ning gently held Xiao Yue’s delicate hand and continued speaking.
"Yes, but Ye Mo is truly the most exceptional. Without him, not only would we have been in grave danger, but the entire contingent of experts from the Spirit Martial Camp might not have survived."
Xiao Yue remarked with sincerity.
All eyes then shifted towards their own prodigal disciples.
"Esteemed individuals, you all hail from the Lingwu Continent. As we now stand on the precipice of an invasion from Wraith Land, I implore you, regardless of your previous affiliations, to unite with our Six Great Powers."
An elder from Mu Family Academy addressed those who had emerged from the Vanquishing Martial Realm.
The lords and martial artists who had come forth from the Vanquishing Martial Realm understood they lacked a secure haven on Lingwu Continent and recognized the necessity of being accepted.
"I am an elder representing the Heavenly Clan, and we are prepared to welcome all of you as honored guests, attending to your every need."
"I represent the Divine Beast Family as an elder; our family is pleased to extend the identical terms."
The Heavenly Dao, Mu Family, Suxin Palace, and the Ancient Buddha Clan also conveyed their invitations to this gathering.
Although none had yet attained the Divine Venerate level, their inherent potential was immense, suggesting they would soon ascend.
"I wish to pose a question, to which power does Ye Mo belong?"
Li Murong asked, carefully suppressing his usual demeanor in the presence of these formidable Divine Venerate practitioners.
"We inquired about his affiliation, and yet he asks about Ye Mo's allegiance?"
A ripple of surprise went through the crowd.
Elder Ziyang offered a gentle smile and stated, "Ye Mo is a brilliant genius nurtured by our Divine Beast Family."
"Excellent, then we shall make a collective decision to align ourselves with the Divine Beast Family."
Li Murong voiced the consensus of the assembled group.
"What?"
The elders representing the other five families wore expressions of unmistakable astonishment.
