“How is this possible? Such a powerful attack – and merely using a clone to kill Hai Long, who is half a step into the True Energy Realm. Has he already received the inheritance of the Kraken King?”
The giant whale leader hiding in the sea was completely devastated.
It was only then when he came to his senses that a single spear attack from Ye Mo was enough to parry Hai Long’s Sea Deity Trident attack, which even included borrowed strength from the Sea Deity himself. Furthermore, the spear strike killed Hai Long off in an instant.
That spear strike instilled deep fear into him. That kind of strength was definitely not something that an Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighter would be able to unleash and definitely not something that he could defend against.
The thought of escaping immediately came to the giant whale leader’s mind. The energy deities standing above the water pillars started to disappear, as their giant bodies started to submerged into the ocean.
“Run!”
Now, Ye Mo was in complete control, capable of detecting any unusual movement in his surroundings. Once he realized that the giant whale leader was about to retreat, he grabbed his spear with both hands and floated in the air, unleashing a wild strike.
In an instant, a giant black light blade was unleashed, slicing along the surface and creating a canyon as it struck directly towards the ocean.
Boom!
The vast ocean was immediately sliced open, with waves splitting into two sides.
The Deep Sea Giant Whale was directly struck by Ye Mo’s light blade. A pained scream could be heard as the whale leader, who was at least tens of yards long, was split into half by Ye Mo’s single spear strike.
Seeing the situation unfold, the remaining nine krakens were in a complete frenzy. They had initially made an intimidating entrance intending to kill off the humans, but Ye Mo’s powerful counterattack was something that they had not anticipated.
Bang!
One of the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm krakens exploded immediately. Under Ye Mo’s clone’s control, the kraken did not have any chance of retaliation.
Now that his strength has reached between half True Energy Realm and actual True Energy Realm, Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighters had too much of a gap in ability compared to Ye Mo.
Another spear strike from Ye Mo, and down went another kraken.
The death of their leader, Hai Long, sent them into a complete state of fear and confusion. They were initially capable of unleashing the Nine Illusion Dragon Seal Formation, a technique strong enough to take down a True Energy Realm fighter. However, they were completely shaken by Ye Mo’s performance and could not muster the ability to retaliate against him.
The krakens who were lucky enough to survive had nothing on their minds, their souls completely crushed.
In battle, the most important thing was one’s will to fight.
With all of them plunged in fear, and their strength levels far from that of Ye Mo, the krakens were unable to escape, dropping down from the sky one by one, huge amounts of energy exploding in all directions.
By the time Ye Mo finished killing the final kraken, the whole island had fallen into silence.
As for Ye Mo’s clone, his posture was like a tiger, standing upright proudly. Despite going through a big battle, the clone’s strength was only slightly weaker than his peak strength. Just a replenishment from the original form would be sufficient to recharge the clone’s energy.
“Are you alright now?”
While his clone was occupied with the battle, Ye Mo was already tending to Tong Lan’s injuries. While her wounds were all healed, there were already a few more scars seen on her face.
“Master Ye Xiao, I must be very ugly now, right? I know that my face has already been ruined.” Sitting up on the ground, Tong Lan touched her own face and could evidently feel that there were a few obvious scars on her face.
“No, the current you is the prettiest. I mean it.” Standing up, Ye Mo said, “However, you don’t have to worry too much about it. I can cultivate an Appearance Pill and remove these scars for you.”
“No, no need for that. Let these scars remain on my face. At least it will mean that I will be able to think of you every time I touch it.” Tong Lan touched her face again, as she said, “I know you are no ordinary man. With the talents that you currently have, you are destined to impact the world of martial arts. I don’t dare to ask much from you. I only wish that when you return to the Tiandu Ocean one day, you will remember the woman with the scars on her face.”
Ye Mo sighed, as he said, “It was fate that allowed us to meet. There will be a man who is more suitable for you.”
“Really?” Tong Lan’s heart was filled with doubt. She feared that she would never meet a man as brilliant as Ye Mo ever again.
Ye Mo did not reply, casting his glance at the Heaven’s Wall City. Having entered the Luosha Prison, and now traveled to the Tiandu Ocean, quite a significant amount of time had passed. It was time to return to the Qingyun League.
Riding a boat and breaking through the waves as they returned to the Tiandu City, the next morning, the four of them returned back to their residences
Their journey was smooth, with no strong fighters from the Kraken Clan harassing them. Tong Lan and Ye Mo chose to remain silent.
After half a day, the boat reached the shore, and Ye Mo stepped onto land once again.
“Lady Tong Lan, many thanks for taking care of me these past few days. I should return to the Qingyun League now.” Ye Mo’s back faced Tong Lan as he looked towards the endless ocean, allowing the wild winds to crash against his body.
“You take care too. I can feel that there must be heavy responsibilities on your shoulder,” Tong Lan said.
“Thank you. Let’s meet again if fate allows it!” With that, Ye Mo turned into a dark shadow as he rushed towards the direction of the Heaven’s Wall City.
Now, Ye Mo possessed 4,500 rays of Giant Dragon Powers inside his body and was capable of unleashing 2,500 rays. Once he reached the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, Ye Mo’s five major entrances in his body would be able to hold 3,000 rays of Giant Dragon Power. He had no problem challenging a True Energy Realm fighter.
Furthermore, if Ye Mo was able to utilize the remaining 1500 rays of Giant Dragon Power in his body, Ye Mo strength would be superior to True Energy Realm fighters.
On the way, Ling’er’s voice was suddenly heard. “Brother Ye Mo, did you hear what that lady said when you were advancing to the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm?”
“Oh? Did she say something?” Ye Mo was extremely curious and immediately stopped above a giant tree.
Despite not even knowing her name, he had already been through all of that with her. Ye Mo had to explain to her and clear things up.
“Seems like you do care quite a bit about her?” Ling’er laughed teasingly.
“Of course! After that has happened between us!” Ye Mo said sheepishly.
“Assisted by the Kraken King essence, that lady successfully advanced to the True Energy Realm. Based on the way she spoke, her status must be quite significant. She did say that you are already her man, and that she will kill any woman seen together with you next time she sees you.” Ling’er laughed.
“Uh!” Ye Mo was somewhat speechless. What was this forcefulness? She was trying to keep him for herself.
“This lady should be someone of high status. However, if she flips what she said the other way around, I suppose I could barely accept it.”
Standing up, Ye Mo looked at the ocean behind him before turning into a dark shadow and speeding towards the Heaven’s Wall City.
“Heaven’s Wall City, I, Ye Mo, am back again.”
