Chapter 573: Zhu Immortal True Word
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Ye Mo saw the ashen look on Li Tianqiong’s face, he felt comfortable. His true energy circulation felt much smoother due to his good mood. With this, even after arriving at the Zone of Seals, Li Tianqiong would think twice before making a move against him.
Of course, Ye Mo would never believe that those words alone could make Li Tianqiong give up on his plan.
I still need to reach the Transcendence Realm as soon as possible, Ye Mo thought.
In Ye Mo’s opinion, only by reaching the Transcendence Realm would he be a true expert in the Zone of Desolation.
He had gotten many questions as to why a Spirit Devour Realm warrior was going on this trip, but, thankfully, Nangong Wudi pushed all the doubts aside.
Nangong Wudi’s excuse was that Ye Mo had defeated the sixth disciple of the Asura Palace.
“Ye Mo, did you really beat a Transcendence Third Realm warrior?” Wenren Yixiang asked curiously. “Have you hidden your true aura?”
Ye Mo ignored Wenren Yixiang’s question. But, by doing so, he gave her the impression that he was a boorish person. Normally, she only needed to wave her hand and a bunch of men would gather around her. Now she was taking the initiative to approach Ye Mo but he was ignoring her.
No one aside from Li Tianqiong believed that Ye Mo had defeated Sixth Brother, but, out of respect for Nangong Wudi, they didn’t push.
The 10-day trip ended in the blink of an eye. During the 10 days, Ye Mo reaped a bountiful harvest from his cultivation as well. They’d been traveling at a high altitude, and cultivating in such an environment helped him obtain a better grasp on the natural laws of the world. It was as Hong Ling once said. The pulse of his Caged Dragon Power was at too high a frequency, one that had surpassed the natural frequency of the world. No matter what he did, he would never be able to blend in with the world, to become one with it.
If he did end up becoming one with the world, the power he possessed might destroy it.
“We’re going to reach the extreme north’s spatial portal soon,” Nangong Wudi announced. “Everyone, prepare for landing.”
Everyone stood up when they heard that. They looked into the distance, where there seemed to be a massive worm wriggling in the air. It was the spatial wormhole that connected to a different region.
This spatial wormhole was shaped like a massive worm that had drilled a tunnel in space. It twisted and wriggled, and looked like it was going to collapse at any moment.
Even with how unstable the wormhole was, they had no other options. Without using the spatial wormhole, traveling to the Zone of Seals would exhaust even a Profound World Realm expert to death, let alone any one of them.
“This token will get the people guarding the spatial wormhole to allow you passage back to the Zone of Desolation,” Nangong Wudi said. “Be careful there.”
Ye Mo accepted the token and entered the wormhole headed to the Zone of Seals. He’d been looking forward to this for a long time. The others leaped off the ship and entered the wormhole.
The instant Ye Mo stepped into the wormhole, he felt like he’d entered the body of a worm. The wormhole wriggled without stop, but he knew he’d end up in the Zone of Seals.
“Everyone, be careful,” Nangong Wudi said. “The wormhole might collapse at any time. If that happens, we’ll fall into the spatial chaos. In case of emergency, we have to grab hold of each other and not allow anyone to get lost.”
Wormhole collapse was a common occurrence. The moment that happened, they might be pulled into a random spatial crack. And when that happened, the only fate would be death. One could only blame his own luck if that happened.
The wormhole wriggled without stop, and everyone seemed to have come sort to an agreement to stay silent. Nobody was in the mood to sit down and cultivate. Ye Mo was the only exception. He sat down cross-legged within the wormhole and continued his meditative cultivation. In such an environment, what he comprehended wasn’t the world. Rather, it was space itself. Space was an extremely vague concept, something hard to make sense of.
When the others saw Ye Mo meditating, they did the same as well. Only Dongfang Clan’s Dongfang Xu stood there lazily instead of entering meditative cultivation.
When he saw how a Spirit Devour Realm warrior like Ye Mo could meditate in the wormhole, his interest was piqued.
“Brother, I heard you’re Castellan Nangong’s son-in-law,” Dongfang Xu asked calmly. “I wonder where you’re from? And how you gained Castellan Nangong’s favor?”
“I’m from the Tianwu Kingdom,” Ye Mo replied indifferently. “As for how have I gained Castellan Nangong’s favor, I don’t think I need to explain.”
“From the undulation of your true energy, you seem to have thick true energy,” Dongfang Xu said with a bizarre smile on his face. “Why don’t we exchange some notes here? Sitting down every day in meditative cultivation is so boring. Only through sparring will one be able to gain new comprehension.”
“I’m only in the Spirit Devour Realm. You’re a Transcendence Fifth Realm expert who’s undergone the tempering of five Transcendence Tribulations. I reckon you can already utilize the Five Elements Power. The gap between us is too large. Nothing will come out of a spar between us. We don’t even have any common topic, either.”
Ye Mo could sense that he was harboring evil designs. He couldn’t be bothered to keep talking with him.
“The immortals said that the five elements are the first calamity, while the four divisions are the second calamity,” Dongfang Xu said. “Calamities might be unending, nothing is comparable to the true words.” He spoke indifferently, each word uttered in a strong tone. “No matter how strong the Five Elements Power is, it’s incomparable to the will of the immortals.”
The immortal’s words Dongfang Xu quoted were spoken in a strong tone, and when Ye Mo heard them, his heart throbbed and he sensed that even his Zhu Immortal Imprint was starting to glow. Those were true words of immortals, words that contained the great dao.
“What are you talking about?” Ye Mo asked in astonishment.
“That’s the Zhu Immortal True Word that’s been passed down for generations in my clan,” Dongfang Xu said. “They contain the great dao of the immortals. Each time I utter those words, I have a different flash of insight. Even my mental state changes. Since you’re uninterested in talking, I’ll have to enter meditation as well.”
After saying that, Dongfang Xu stepped to the side and sat down cross-legged as well.
Ye Mo sat in meditation with his eyes shut even though he’d noticed that something was off. The Zhu Immortal True Words were echoing in his mind. Each of the words was filled with impact, causing his Energy Center to be unable to revolve normally.
That Dongfang Xu is up to somthing, Ye Mo thought. With a few simple words, he ambushed me. That Zhu Immortal True Word can actually affect my true energy circulation.
Ye Mo abruptly opened his eyes. When he saw Dongfang Xu looking at him mockingly, a murderous intent rose within him. He activated the Zhu Immortal Imprint within his Energy Center.
Bang!
Instantly, the Zhu Immortal True Word resounding within his mind was crushed by the Immortal’s Will. The so-called Zhu Immortal True Word was just random musings of the immortals. Ye Mo’s Zhu Immortal Imprint represented the true will of immortals, the will that represented everything, a true tyrant.
What nonsense true word! Ye Mo cursed inwardly as his Immortal’s Will destroyed the Zhu Immortal True Word within his mind. Once again, the true energy within him started circulating smoothly.
In fact, even if Ye Mo didn’t have the Zhu Immortal Imprint inside him, the Zhu Immortal True Word would still be unable to run berserk within him.
Sure, the will of immortals couldn’t be blasphemed. But that went double for the power of gods.
When Ye Mo drove off the Zhu Immortal True Word, Dongfang Xu trembled before looking at Ye Mo, shock filling his heart. How is that possible? he wondered. The moment I chant my Zhu Immortal True Word, it can intrude into a person’s Energy Center undetected. I was planning to test his strength, but he’s destroyed my Zhu Immortal True Word so easily. Looks like this Ye Mo isn’t as simple as he seems.
At the same time his body trembled, the wormhole also happened to tremble as well. Nangong Wushang’s voice rang out, “We’ve arrived at the Zone of Seals, everyone. Let’s leave.”
Hearing that, Ye Mo stood up. He looked out and saw that a lush prairie with a large crowd standing guard around the wormhole.
Ye Mo jumped out. He extended his senses out to feel the world around him.
The frequency of the world here is much higher than the Zone of Desolation’s frequency, Ye Mo thought. This is where I will break through!
