Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Time flew by as Ye Mo practiced his seal techniques. The Mo Clan’s resource competition had officially begun as well.

The Enchanted Cave was an extremely deep cave with endless tunnels, one of which hid a forest. This place was an ideal location for the Limestone City Champion List. The Limestone Champion List competition was organized in the Enchanted Cave. Now that the Mo Clan resource competition was arranged to be set up here as well, it was definitely going to be more intense than the Limestone Champion List competition, with stronger fighters participating.

The competition had yet to begin, but a crowd had already formed with people from all over. The previously empty mountain was now filled with loud and intense chatter.

Ye Mo, with Leng Fubo in company, arrived here as well, as did Leng Leng and Leng Feng. Some clan members and clan leaders also followed. Ye Mo was representing all the small family clans of the Limestone City, so of course they were going to be in attendance to support him.

“This is the Enchanted Cave?”

Ye Mo looked at the giant cave with some trepidation. Compared to the Aura Cave, this cave had a hole 10 times bigger, akin to a mouth of a giant beast. Along the cave’s opening were plenty of soldiers acting as security. They were soldiers from the Limestone City in charge of defending the cave.

“Ye Mo, while you may be able to defeat fighters in the Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm, the participants from the Qin, Ye, and Xiao Clans are not as weak. I heard that there are some fighters in the Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm, so you have to be careful,” said Leng Fubo. The clan leaders from the other families who stood behind him started to give Ye Mo reminders and advice as well. By participating in this battle, Ye Mo was representing all of them.

Ye Mo nodded, adjusting his mask. Following that, with a wave of wind heard behind them, beams of shadow dropped down from the other side.

In came five people, including the leader, Qin Hao, with Qin Shaoyang and Qin Tianmu, both fighters in the Spirit Cultivating Sixth Realm, standing behind him. There were two more slightly older men each displaying strong auras. Based on the flow of their auras, they were in the Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm.

“Leng Fubo, I heard that the Leng Clan got itself a good son-in-law capable of defeating a Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm fighter with a single move. However, this level of strength will not be enough in a resource competition.” Qin Hao laughed wildly, his laughter filled with a sinister and arrogant tone. As the ruler of the Limestone City, it was no surprise that he looked down on the small family clans.

“Ruler Qin, you worry too much. We shall see after the competition!” Leng Fubo replied gently.

Qin Hao did not speak further upon hearing this. This time, he was going to send two Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters and his youngest son, Qin Shaoyang. The two Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters would be enough to do a clean sweep of the competition.

Another group of shadows gradually appeared after the arrival of the Qin Clan – it was the Ye Clan. Ye Kuang, bringing Ye Changsheng and two other youngsters, walked towards them slowly. As he saw Qin Hao, Ye Kuang raised and put his hands together as a show of respect.

“Haha, Ruler Qin, I can’t believe Qin Tianhong and Qin Ming have all reached the Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm. It will only be a matter of time before the Qin family moves out of Limestone City!”

“You are too kind, Brother Ye Kuang. Your clan’s Ye Changsheng managed to advance to the Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm – that is an even scarier development!” replied Qin Hao.

Ye Changsheng overtook Qin Shaoyang and Qin Tianmu with a single move to become the champion of the Limestone City. The speed at which he had reached the Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm was extremely scary, to the extent that even Ye Mo was surprised. Ye Changsheng jumped from the Fifth Realm to the Seventh Realm in the span of 20 odd days.

“Looks like my Xiao Clan has arrived the latest!” Xiao Yuanshan’s silhouette could be seen as the five members of the Xiao Clan arrived as well. Participants in the competition were Xiao Yue, Xiao Feng and the masked man who fought with Ye Mo at the Hundred Treasure Pavilion. Xiao Yue was clad in the Sky Blood Armor, looking like a cold-hearted war goddess.

“Haha, Brother Xiao, you look full of ambition,” said Ye Kuang, his gaze sweeping across the three people behind Xiao Yuanshan and Madame Xiao. He asked, “Brother Xiao, where did Ye Mo go? Don’t tell me he is forfeiting the battle? Those were pretty wild words that he said that day!”

“My Xiao Clan has three participants. Why the need for Ye Mo?” Madam Xiao replied.

“Since all the participants have arrived, as the ruler of the Limestone City, I shall read the rules of the competition. All of Mo Clan’s property has already been separated into 10 portions, all hidden in the forest of the Enchanted Cave. The exact location of each of them will be up you to find. The fighter who manages to grab the greatest amount of resources will win the Book of the Pill Lord from the Mo Clan!” said Qin Hao. With both his arms raised, an energy flag appeared in the air suddenly.

Whoosh!

The Qin Clan’s armored soldiers surrounded the Enchanted Cave!

“The 10 participants, enter the area surrounded by the soldiers. The others, retreat and await the results of the competition!”

The family clan leaders gave some advice to the participants before leaving the area. The 10 participants had fire in their eyes as they looked towards the giant Enchanted Cave!

“The fight begins!” As Qin Hao shouted out the command, a scurrying noise was heard and in an instant, multiple shadows dashed towards the Enchanted Cave opening, with some sprinting, some jumping. The most surprising participant was Xiao Yue, who immediately summoned a griffin. Xiao Yue stepped on the back of the griffin, flying towards the cave like a war goddess.

It was only a brief moment before all 10 participants disappeared into the cave. Inside the Enchanted Cave was a giant tunnel. The 10 participants charged towards it without hesitation.

Ye Mo looked around at his surroundings, his speed the same as the flying Xiao Yue. Entering the Enchanted Cave, he knew there would be unknown dangers. Furthermore, he felt extremely wary towards the masked man.

All of them had to leave the cave through this opening after getting the resources. Protecting Xiao Yue was the priority.

The six participants from the Ye Clan and Qin Clan all advanced towards the tunnel with increased speed, turning into six black shadows venturing into the abyss.

The masked man moved at the same speed as Ye Mo. Giving Ye Mo a glance, his speed suddenly exploded as he dashed towards the deeper parts of the cave, leaving Ye Mo, Xiao Fen,g and Xiao Yue behind.

“Yue Yue, it’s me!” Ye Mo said.

“Ye Mo? Is that really you?” Steering the griffin to fly lower, Xiao Yue’s face had a hint of surprised delight.

“You are Ye Mo?” Xiao Feng was surprised as well.

“Correct. The two of you, do not go further. Wait for me here, there is definitely a big battle ahead,” Ye Mo said as his Giant Dragon Power started to explode as well. Ye Mo’s speed reached its maximum in an instant, his legs becoming a gust of wild wind. Ye Mo’s shadow disappeared immediately as well.

“How is Ye Mo so fast? Even I cannot reach this level of speed.” Xiao Feng looked at Ye Mo, who had disappeared into the tunnel. He was filled with shock. Wasn’t Ye Mo’s strength in the Spirit Cultivating Second Realm? How was he able to move so fast?

“Because he is Ye Mo!” Xiao Yue smiled, looking at Ye Mo’s vanishing shadow.

However, the two of them did not stop in their tracks, venturing into the abyss as well. They were not fighters who were scared of losing their lives!
