The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

The tournament continued, it was now the third day. All the participating disciples were madly killing demons and everyone’s points were increasing crazily.

Mu Sang and Liu Qingyun still held first and second place, both overtaking each other over and over again. The intense competition left the disciples watching outside in an anxious state.

“Tsk tsk, that Mu Sang and Liu Qingyun are terrifyingly strong. The first and second place have been theirs all along, and it’s still unclear who will be the ultimate winner in the end.”

“They’ve been competing against each other for so many years. It’s been more than five or six years, right? And the competition is still as intense as ever, and no new generation of disciples have been able to catch up to them. Perhaps we’ll have to wait until they become the Elite Disciples and leave the six dao palaces before the first and second places of the Six Dao Tournament will be emptied for someone else.”

“But, without a doubt, the Human Dao Palace is already in the first place of the team ranking. Even our non-participating disciples will be able to benefit by getting the chance to enter the Daozhi Ocean to increase their strength.”

Their eyes were fixed on the rankings at all times, and as they looked at the rankings, they conversed.

“Look, the rankings are going to be updated again. Asura Palace’s team points are rising sharply again, while the Human Dao Palace’s are slowing down.”

“That Ye Mo is catching up in points again. How is that possible? He’s even surpassed Yan Luo to take fifth place in the individual ranking. How did he do that?”

“That’s too unbelievable. How can a late-stage Spirit Devour Realm expert get so many points?”

Everyone was staring at the rankings in disbelief. At first, they thought that Ye Mo would only stay on top temporarily, and would be gone by the next update. But Ye Mo was able to maintain a stable position at the top, staying at around the fifth and sixth place.

Just as everyone was busy being astonished by the points in the individual ranking, the team points of Human Dao Palace, Hell Dao Palace, Beast Palace, Heavenly Palace, and Angry Spirit Palace started dropping rapidly, while the Asura Palace’s points started shooting up to take first place.

Looking at what’s happening, everyone was first alarmed. Then, they started focusing on the disciples of Asura Palace. They found that the Asura Palace disciples were still steadily increasing their points, yet their team points were rising sharply.

What exactly was going on here?

Just as everyone was wondering, numerous figures were sent out of the portal. None from the Asura Palace, but the eliminated disciples included the members of all the other five palaces. All of them were eliminated with differing levels of injuries, and there were even a few deaths as well.

The leaders of the six palaces charged over, looking at the eliminated disciples, who no longer had their tokens.

“What happened exactly?” the Human Dao Palace leader frowned and asked doubtfully.

“We were attacked by experts from the Zone of Demon,” said one of them miserably, with his hand pressed on his wound.

“What? Zone of Demon experts?” the Human Dao Palace leader asked in astonishment. “Have they opened a portal to Purgatory as well?”

“They’re aware that we’re in the middle of the Six Dao Tournament,” one of the disciples, also seriously injured, answered. He had turned pale with fright. “They’ve started sending the geniuses from the Zone of Demon to Purgatory, and they’ll be earning points by killing the disciples of the Door of Desolation.”

Many of them had only been able to escape alive by giving up on their tokens.

“What? The demons from the Zone of Demon are too arrogant,” said the Human Dao Palace leader furiously. “Let’s go in and kill them!”

“Palace Leader Hai Ming, calm down. Don’t you have any confidence in our disciples?” Elder Taotie waved his hand and said, “The demons from the Zone of Demon have also entered Purgatory. Since they’re also there for tempering, they won’t have sent any Profound World Realm experts in. Let’s just consider this a different form of tempering as well. For them, this might be something good.”

Apart from the disciples of Asura Palace, the disciples of the other five palaces had been either killed off or eliminated. Naturally, when the senior brothers of the five palaces found out about that, they arranged for a meetup. All the dispersed disciples started gathering together.

As for Li Tianqiong’s group of three, they had failed to discover Ye Mo. After receiving the order, they returned as well before gathering with the Human Dao Palace disciples to avoid the gathering of demon experts.

Ye Mo was still unaware that the Zone of Demon experts had appeared in Purgatory. He was still busy killing demons with Xiao Jing’s help.

“Ye Mo, there seems to be an herb garden not far away,” Hong Ling said while Re Mo was busy searching for more demons. “It’s a Fragrant Spirit Grass farm.”

“Fragrant Spirit Grass?” Ye Mo said. “Isn’t that an ingredient to refine the Transcendence Pill?”

To refine a Transcendence Pill required Fragrant Spirit Grass and True Fire Wood. The two were extremely rare, and even within the Zone of Desolation, very little could be found. That was why the Transcendence Pill was worth so much.

All Transcendence Realm experts required that pill to replenish their energy. And, when cultivating true energy, the pill was the best assistance for Transcendence Realm experts during their cultivation.

Ye Mo rushed to the garden, riding on Xiao Jing. It was an herb garden, with many herbs to be found. The entire place was filled with the fragrance of herbs.

When Ye Mo looked at the garden, he saw that someone was already there, plucking the herbs. From the way that person was behaving, he seemed to be losing his mind. That was understandable, though, as nobody would be able to keep calm when encountering a herb garden like this.

“Is that Lin Langya? This is truly a gathering of enemies.”

With a single glance, Ye Mo was able to see that the person plucking the herbs was Lin Langya. Although he was already at Transcendence First Realm, against Ye Mo, he was nothing.

“Lin Langya, you seem to be having a lot of fun. Aren’t you going to share?” Sitting on Xiao Jing, Ye Mo looked at Lin Langya and said with a mocking look on his face.

Lin Langya was busy plucking herbs when he heard Ye Mo’s voice. He was first alarmed, and then he saw Ye Mo riding on a massive beast. The beast had an extremely terrifying presence.

“Ye…Ye Mo?” Lin Langya reacted. When he saw the beast Ye Mo was riding, his heart was filled with fear.

That beast was at least in the Transcendence Fifth Realm. It was actually Ye Mo’s mount. The thought struck fear into Ye Mo’s heart.

“How many points have you earned so far?” Ye Mo asked with a faint smile.

When Lin Langya heard the question, he gulped. He decided to ignore the herbs around him and unfurled his wings to flee.

Ye Mo didn’t bother chasing after Lin Langya. Those herbs were the actual wealth there.

Ye Mo leaped off Xiao Jing’s back. He waved his hand and prepared to place the entire herb garden in his Xu Mi ring. The herb garden and Xiao Jing’s evolution would make his trip there worthwhile even if he failed to get a top place in the rankings.

But right as Ye Mo was about to take the herb garden, a sharp swordlight flew from the distance, straight at his back.

The swordlight appeared incredibly sinister. It transformed into a streak of light, gliding through the air as if it was traversing the Milky Way.

When Ye Mo sensed the incoming swordlight, he activated his Zhu Immortal Imprint. With himself as the center, a gush of Immortal’s Will and seals spread all around him to form an impenetrable defense. The incoming swordlight shattered against his defenses.

Knowing that someone was ambushing him, Ye Mo acted without hesitation. He flicked his sleeve, and everything around him that was within the range of his Zhu Immortal Magical Formation was pulled into the Xu Mi Ring.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Right after Ye Mo pulled the herb garden into his ring, dense clouds of demonic aura appeared in the sky. Three people descended suddenly. One of them was holding a head, the head of Lin Langya.
