As soon as the clone heard Ye Mo’s name, his eyes widened and he shouted, “So you’re the one who killed my son and my troop! Who do you think you are? I’ve heard that you’re one of the Xiao Clan’s foreign aids. The Xiao clan dares to go against me? The wedding is off!”
“Yeah, and you Barbarians are literally signing your death wish,” Ye Mo looked at the clone and said. “Did you even know what Man Tai had done? I guess Mo Feng did not tell you that he and Man Tai almost got the Imperial Concubine killed. As soon as she returned to the Heaven’s Wall City, the Mo Clan was wiped off from the earth. Do you think you Barbarians could escape the emperor’s wrath too? The Xiao Clan wants to call off the wedding too. They are afraid that the emperor would do something to them if they have a daughter in your hands.”
“Do you think you can scare me with that? We Barbarians are so much stronger than the Mo Clan!” the clone roared.
“So you think you are worth more than the Imperial Concubine? Who knows, maybe someone is already heading their way to kill you as we speak!” Ye Mo laughed.
“Die!” The clone jumped towards Ye Mo and thrust his palm forward. A massive energy palm appeared and inched towards Ye Mo. Ye Mo also opened his palm and clashed with the energy palm.
Ye Mo kneeled down due to the pressure from the energy palm as the ground beneath him began to crack. The seemingly endless energy began to seep into Ye Mo’s body. Warriors of the Energy Shaping Realm could master the Force of Vibration that could spread their energy when they attacked.
The warrior who controlled the clone was none other than the chieftain of the Barbarians, Man Weiwu, an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior.
Even though his clone was able to use the Force of Vibration, the impact was not as powerful as an Energy Shaping Second Realm warrior.
Even if Ye Mo was strengthened by the Rank One Dragon Blood, the energy still vibrated throughout his entire body and caused damage to his internal organs. Blood began to flow out from his mouth. This was the first time Ye Mo had been injured after he’d awakened the Dragon Blood.
“What a sturdy body you have. I see that’s why you were able to kill Man Hu. Looks like I’ll have to destroy you right now or else you’ll definitely be a threat to us in the future,” the clone said and increased his power. The ground finally gave in and caved in.
“Too bad you don’t have the chance to do that!” Ye Mo laughed, and the Rising Dragon Pillar began to vibrate. A huge black hole appeared in his Energy Center and began to absorb the pure energy-made clone.
“What technique is this?” the clone noticed the changes in Ye Mo’s body and shouted in surprise. “No, no technique nor Cultivation Method could achieve this, you must have some powerful treasure with you! You better stop this instant, or I’ll definitely make you regret it when I meet you in person!”
“Don’t even think about it! With the number of Barbarians I’ve killed, I’m already a dead man in your eyes anyway!” Ye Mo laughed as the clone began to shrink and Man Weiwu’s connection began to weaken.
“I’ll show you and the Xiao Clan what it means to oppose us when I arrive at Limestone City!” the clone shouted.
“Die!” Ye Mo roared, and the clone was completely absorbed into his body. The Energy Clone was converted into fuel for the dragons on the Rising Dragon Pillar. Dragons slowly opened their eyes one by one and roared as 10 more dragons awoke.
Even if Ye Mo could now utilize 60 Dragon Energies, he could still only infuse 10 to each of his Mortal Gate.
He could store the remaining 10 in his Energy Center to help him recover from his wounds and act as an emergency supply until he could advance to the Spirit Cultivating Fifth Realm.
Sparks could be heard inside of his body as the Five-Elements Energy Cores that surrounded the Rising Dragon Pillar began to shine from the immense amount of energy that Ye Mo has absorbed. Ye Mo felt that the Five-Elements Cultivation had something more to it as the cores kept growing with each of his breakthroughs.
Yet the current Ye Mo could only use the cores to create pills and charms.
“Now that you’ve absorbed the clone, your power has increased as well,” Ling’er said. “If you meet any more of them in the future, absorb as many as you can!”
“Do you think those warriors were weak? They must at least be an Energy Shaping Eighth Realm to pull that technique off! If Man Weiwu were here, I would’ve been dead by now!” Ye Mo said.
“Uh-huh. Now that you’ve crossed the line with the Barbarians, I’d like to see how you get out of this alive.” Ling’er pouted.
“I can only hope Mr. Xiao makes his breakthrough to the True Energy Realm as soon as possible.” Ye Mo had promised Xiao Yue that he would take care of her parents. That was the reason he had to stay and fight or else the Barbarians would definitely target the Xiao Clan.
Man Weiwu sat in the Barbarians’ main camp. He crushed a glass in his hand. “Ye Mo! I’ll tear you to pieces and take that treasure away from you! If I present the treasure to the emperor, he might forgive us.”
Two warriors rushed in as soon as they heard the shattered glass. One of them was around 18 years old. He had the face of a fierce warrior. He was no other than the prodigy of the Barbariana, Man Qi. He was able to reach the Energy Shaping First Realm at the age of 18.
The other one was the general of the Barbarians’ army. He was an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm warrior who could shape his energy into wings. The general was in his 60s, yet his body was still tall and muscular, and he looked energized even when his hair and beard have already turned white.
“Father, what’s the matter?” the 18 year old warrior said.
“My son, the eight warriors I’ve sent to Limestone City are dead,” Man Weiwu said.
“That’s impossible! The Limestone City is just your average city, no one would dare touch them!” Man Qi shouted in surprise.
“They were all done in by the same person who killed your brother, Ye Mo! He’s young but strong. What’s more is that he holds a treasure that can absorb other people’s energy,” Man Weiwu said.
The general bowed and said, “Chieftain, since we’re already here, why don’t we use this chance and take Limestone City? We’ll show them what it means to oppose us!”
“Agreed! I want Ye Mo’s head on the Barbarian God’s altar when we are finished with this!”
