The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

In the time it took incense to burn, new students who had successfully passed their tests started appearing, their faces filled with smiles.

After all, passing a test also signified the successful comprehension of a brand new will.

There were also recruits passing the tests of Beast Dao, Hell Dao, and Angry Spirit Dao. These people were drenched with sweat and appeared rather weak at the moment, but all of them appeared excited.

Naturally, the number of recruits from the three Daos were incomparable to the Human Dao.

Time passed slowly, and finally, all the tests of the Human Dao had concluded. In total, over 150 participants joined the Human Dao test, and about 120 of them successfully comprehended the Will of Human Dao and passing the test. As for the Hell Dao, Angry Spirit Dao, and Beast Dao, about 40 participants selected to partake in their tests and about half passed. As for the Heavenly Dao which had a higher difficulty, only 30 people participated in the test and only five passed. Zi Yi was one who passed while Luo Hun failed miserably.

When Zi Yi and the others passed the Heavenly Dao’s test, they were welcomed with loud applause. After all, the Heavenly Dao had the second hardest test after the Asura Dao.

“Over 300 recruits have participated and about 180 passed,” muttered the Goldsilver Emissary in satisfaction while he nodded with his eyes shining brightly. More than half of the participants had passed. This was the best result in recent years, one he was very pleased with. “Of the 185, 120 of them will enter the Human Dao Palace, three groups of 20 each will enter the Beast Dao, Hell Dao, and Angry Spirit Dao, while five will enter the Heavenly Dao. Unfortunately, nobody managed to enter the Asura Palace this year as well.”

When recruiting disciples, a balance was important. Although none of the six Daos was stronger or weaker than the others, humans were beings with weaknesses. Thus, certain Daos would be easier or harder for some. As for the Asura Dao, it was even harder to comprehend than the Heavenly Dao, the hardest Dao of the six Daos.

“Senior brother, has the test ended?” asked one of the new disciples with his hands clasped. He could no longer wait to get initiated into the Door of Desolation.

“I think so. Only one participant is left, and he is still within Asura Dao’s test,” said one of the disciples.

“That late-stage True Energy Realm warrior is still in there?” This discovery astonished Venerable Goldsilver.

The tests of the Battle of Yidao would be different for each of the six Daos, and he was very clear on the test for the Asura Dao. The participant would enter a land of illusion and would have to defeat a version of the participant who had comprehended the Will of Asura. This was not a test an ordinary person could pass.

“He hasn’t died inside, right?” asked one of the new disciples.

When Elder Goldsilver heard that, he waved his hand, sending an energy chain towards Asura Dao’s door. Next, the projection of Ye Mo’s battle with the Asura Emissary appeared.

“That fellow has actually reached Heaven’s Gate Realm?” Venerable Goldsilver was astonished. The projection displayed even the aura of the person within clearly. Ye Mo had indeed advanced into the Heaven’s Gate Realm.

All the new disciples and the existing disciples all focused on the door, their eyes filled with disbelief. This recruit brought here by Nangong Qingxue, this late-stage True Energy Realm recruit, had broken through within the land of illusion.

“How is that possible? There is no spiritual energy within the illusion. How has he broken through?”

“His opponent is using the same moves as him, and the opponent is obviously stronger.”

“Asura Dao’s test is indeed not simple. It is already a very good result for him to survive this long.”

“This kid seems to have entered an extremely unique mode? He is not controlling his own body. Rather, his heart is the one controlling his body. Can it be that he has reached the state of selflessness?”

The recruits who had challenged the Asura Dao and failed were in even greater shock as they had personally experienced how terrifying that Asura Emissary was. They had all been miserably defeated by the Asura Emissary. Of the warriors who had challenged the Asura Dao, there were Heaven’s Strength Realm and even Energy Burst Realm experts, but all had failed. Yet Ye Mo was still there, surviving until now.

The battle between Ye Mo and the Asura Emissary was very intense. One attacked while the other defended. It was clear Ye Mo was still at a disadvantage compared to his opponent.

However, that was the case for everyone who had challenged the Asura Dao.

Thus, this scene caused an unprecedented shock to those who had passed the Battle of Yidao.

“Looks like that kid wasn’t bragging. The Asura Palace might be able to get a new disciple this year after all. Moreover, that might be the lowest cultivation realm disciple they have ever obtained,” muttered Venerable Goldsilver while he stroked his beard, his face filled with shock and approval.

Although Ye Mo’s previous words were a tad too arrogant, that was what was expected from a young man like him. And Ye Mo was worthy of his arrogance. Thus, once again, Ye Mo became the focus of everyone. Of course, this was unknown to Ye Mo. He was currently focused on dealing with the Asura Emissary before him.

He had indeed broken through into the Heaven’s Gate Realm while trapped in the land of illusion. Moreover, he had broken through by stimulating his potential during the battle, pushing through his limit and entering the Heaven’s Gate Realm. After entering Heaven’s Gate Realm, apart from the increase of one’s strength, the biggest benefit was his much better grasp over his every move.

By fusing his consciousness into the Bright Dragon Power, he felt like he had transformed into a Bright Dragon that could sense the myriad living beings of the world. Moreover, the strength of his Mortal Gates had also increased. From a capacity of 6,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power, his Mortal Gates now had the capacity for 10,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power. Ye Mo had 35,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power within his body. During late-stage True Energy Realm, he could control 30,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power at once. But now that he had reached Heaven’s Gate Realm, he was able to control 50,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power at once.

Advancement for Ye Mo was an increase in realm, an increase in the strength of his Mortal Gates, and the growth of his Five Elements Energy.

Bang!

Under everyone’s stupefied gaze, Ye Mo’s Sky Blood Spear clashed with the Asura Emissary’s spear once again. Immediately, the entire space shook while both of them were sent backwards. Ye Mo was pushed 10 steps backwards while the Asura Emissary was pushed eight steps backwards.

“Hmph, I have comprehended many wills as well. The Will of Asura might be strong, but it is still incomparable to my very own Realm of Death!” After the many exchanges, Ye Mo now completely understood his opponent’s Asura spear.

Asura was an ancient god, an extremely warlike god known as a malignant deity. Similar to Sky Blood Lady, Asura was firm and decisive in terms of killing. Thus, the Will of Asura had certain similarities to the Will of Blood. Of course, the Will of Asura was stronger, and also contained a hint of the Will of Asura God within as well.

That was the reason why Hong Ling told Ye Mo to select the Asura Dao. Ye Mo started recalling all the moves used by the Asura Emissary before, various scenes flashing by in his mind. Next, his eyes lit up brightly.

Will of Asura Dao, comprehended!

Abruptly, the Sky Blood Spear in his hand spun, emanating a terrifying Bright Dragon Power that seemed to cover the entire world around him. Behind him, a massive projection of Asura himself appeared. The projection was more than 30 meters tall. It had three heads and six arms, its sharp fangs were revealed while its expression was ferocious. A terrifying aura was being emanated by it. This was the God’s Will of Asura, a projection of the God’s Will.

“Will of Asura, Asura God, descend!”

Ye Mo roared, the projection behind him transformed into boundless energy that surged into the Sky Blood Spear. He then stabbed the spear forward.

Bang!
