Chapter 365: Breaking Down to Build Up
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Entering the third level, Ye Mo frowned. The temperature here was even scarier than the previous levels. Turning around, he saw that Chen Zhan and Lei Xiao’s foreheads were already covered in sweat. It was evident that this temperature was becoming somewhat unbearable even for True Energy Realm fighters.
Ye Mo sat down once again and started to meditate!
By the time the three of them entered the fifth level, Chen Zhan and Lei Xiao had already reached their limits. The Blue-Green Power’s temperature was almost the level of burning hellfire.
They could barely absorb from the Blue-Green Power, and were even forced to channel their True Energy to combat against the scary level of heat.
In the seven-storey tower, the temperature of each tower was scarier than the previous one, almost doubling from the previous level. With the fifth level already proving to be so daunting, the sixth and seventh levels were set to be even worse.
“Darn it, this temperature is the maximum that I can endure. Who would’ve thought that Ye Mo would also be able to endure till the fifth level?”
Chen Zhan frowned, casting a sweeping glance towards Ye Mo as he clenched his teeth and said.
“This Ye Mo was a monster from the start. For him to be able to come to the fifth level with us – we cannot afford to underestimate him in the future.”
Lei Xiao was also hard at work, painstakingly channelling his True Energy to repel the frighteningly high temperature of his surroundings.
While the temperature was indeed high, this was nothing much to Ye Mo. With Level Three Dragon Blood Strength armor, it completely separated the heat from his surroundings, blocking it off entirely. It was certainly hot – even with a hint of burning sensation. However, it was incapable of causing significant harm to his body.
Once he got used to his environment, Ye Mo once again started to absorb the Blue-Green Energy, fusing it with his Giant Dragon Powers.
Chen Zhan suddenly opened his eyes and said as he stood up, “Lei Xiao, I am already more or less done with my fusion. If I go up even further, I’m afraid I will end up burning into ashes.”
Lei Xiao opened his eyes almost simultaneously and said as he saw Ye Mo still meditating, “Same here. Let’s wait for Ye Mo and go down with him together. I don’t want him to call us disloyal.”
Chen Zhan said, “Fine, let’s wait for a while. This speed is too slow. However, for him to be able to follow us up to the fifth level, it’s already pretty impressive.”
After fifteen minutes had passed, Ye Mo suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing those two staring back at him, he could not help but ask curiously, “What’s wrong with you two?”
Chen Zhan replied, “We’re obviously waiting for you. If we go up even further, we’ll end up as ashes. Let’s go down together. We’ve cultivated quite a lot of our energies and improved quite a lot in strength.”
“You two can go down first then, I still want to try the sixth level.”
As he spoke, Ye Mo prepared to enter the sixth floor.
“Ye Mo, you are crazy!” Chen Zhan immediately said, stopping Ye Mo. “The temperature on the sixth level is at least double of the fifth. If you go up recklessly, it is very likely that you will be burnt to ashes. Don’t end up losing your life over your greed of the Blue Power.”
“Brother Chen Zhan, thanks for your concern. However, I don’t think that the temperature will be a problem for me.”
Ye Mo stood up, his body charging towards the sixth level in a flash.
“Darn it, Ye Mo is looking down on us. Let’s head up and take a look too!” Chen Zhan retorted in anger as he slowly walked towards the sixth level with Lei Xiao following behind. However, at the stairway, they could already feel a wave of frightening, blazing heat charging towards them.
“Don’t go in, Ye Mo. You will die.”
The two of them tried to call Ye Mo, but he seemingly did not hear them as he disappeared into the blue space.
“Is he not afraid of being burnt alive?”
“Madman. This Ye Mo is simply a madman.”
Seeing the situation unfold, the two of them yelled in panic with faces of shock.
Hearing the screams from the both of them, a sly smile was seen in the corner of Ye Mo’s mouth. Following that, his expression changed dramatically. This level of heat was already way above that of burning hellfire, and was perhaps closer to the Flame of the Sun. Even a fighter with Level Three Dragon Blood Strength Armor like Ye Mo had to take it seriously.
This heat also carried an aura of destruction and devouring. Ye Mo felt as if his body was placed in a fire stove, like a pill being cultivated by an alchemist.
At this temperature, even the Rising Dragon Pillars dared not absorb it. Consuming it directly into one’s body could potentially burn and destroy all of his internal organs.
Ye Mo clenched his teeth and said, “This temperature is way too scary!”
“Cut the nonsense. Hurry up and fuse with the Blue Energy and rush up to the seventh level in one go. Only by fusing with the final Purple Power, and combining with the Seven-Color Powers will your Giant Dragon Powers be truly fused with the Yaori Power.” Ling’er reminded him.
Shaking his head, Ye Mo endured the extreme heat of the surroundings as he started to fuse with the Blue Power. As time passed, Ye Mo’s body perspired continuously. However, any sweat that was produced was instantly vaporised by the extremely high heat.
“Done!”
Ye Mo suddenly stood up and looked towards the entrance of the final level. With a pain-stricken expression, Ye Mo could not help but inhale a gulp of hot air.
With the sixth level already so frightening, will the seventh level be something mortals could endure?
“Who cares. Only by fusing with the Seven-Color Powers can it be truly considered as combining with the Yaori Power. In order to defeat Cao Zheng, I have to give it a shot, even if it costs me my life!”
With every painstaking step taken, Ye Mo could already feel the excruciating heat coming from below his feet. Walking step by step up the stairway, looking at the Purple Power’s glow coming from the seventh level entrance, Ye Mo’s expression turned into one of determination.
“Let’s do it!”
Morphing into a Giant Dragon, Ye Mo unleashed all of his 3000 rays of Giant Dragon Powers as he directly charged into the seventh level.
“Ahh!”
The moment he entered the seventh floor, he let out a huge pained roar. Following that, he could see that the flesh on his right arm was actually starting to melt. The feeling was akin to a person putting his limbs into acid, causing his flesh to dissolve immediately.
“Brother Ye Mo, hurry and escape. This temperature will kill you.”
This level of temperature was already beyond anything that Ye Mo could endure. Even the temperature of the inside of an exploding volcano could not be compared to this.
Ye Mo instantly awakened his Giant Dragon Armor, wrapping it around his whole body. However, the moment the armor was formed, it was instantly dissolved. The scary heat directly started eating Ye Mo’s body. He could see that his limbs were already down to the bare bones. His whole body collapsed to the ground.
“Ahhhhhh!”
Pained screams echoed around the seventh level.
Watching the situation unfold, Ling’er knew that this was not going well. If this went on, Ye Mo was going to die for sure. In this environment, even Ling’er herself was not going to be able to save Ye Mo.
An idea struck Ling’er in the midst of panic as she immediately shouted out, “Subconsciousness, the state of subconsciousness. Give up consciousness of your body and start to combine with the final Purple Power.”
“Even the sky collapsing won’t affect a heart as cool as ice!”
Enduring the pain that was tearing him apart, Ye Mo started to utilise the Iceheart Technique. As for his arms and body, they were already beginning to be devoured – his limbs were all reduced down to white bones.
At that moment, Ye Mo instantly entered into a state of subconsciousness. Losing consciousness of everything, there was only a single though in his mind – training!
The Purple Power finally combined and fused with the Giant Dragon Power!
Seven-Color Powers combined as one!
Breaking everything down in order to build it back up!
