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

Liu Qingyun’s plan was to split six ways. Their target wasn’t Ye Mo, but Taiyi Qinglian. Taiyi Qinglian wouldn’t be able to avoid all of them like Ye Mo could, so, as long as one of them found her, Ye Mo would detect it.

As for whether Ye Mo would show up to save Taiyi Qinglian, the five of them had no clue. It was a gamble.

Purgatory!

Purgatory had a vast amount of mountains and land. The mountains there were extremely durable after experiencing years of being attacked by the devil winds. Normal Transcendence Realm fighters wouldn’t be able to destroy them.

At the moment, there was a Seventh Tier Transcendence Realm demon that measured up to seven to eight meters tall. But its aura was waning. It collapsed to the ground, still unwilling to accept defeat.

Two shadows stood beside him, Taiyi Qinglian and Gao Mingkun.

There was a giant lotus flower above Taiyi Qinglian’s head. It was her Transcendence Lotus, a weapon-type Transcendence Golden Body that ranked 34th in the Transcendence Golden Body Rankings. It was another tier above Chen Fan’s Golden Titan.

That Seventh Tier demon was easily slain by Taiyi Qinglian.

It was already the third day, and the two of them had worked together and killed their way up to the top ten in the point tally rankings.

“Senior Qinglian, it seems that we don’t have to carry on killing anymore,” Gao Mingkun said. “All the disciples with high point tallies have had their points stolen by Ye Mo. No matter how hard the next 10 disciples try, they won’t be able to fight their way into the top 10, unless they have the ability to steal the points off of those who are currently in the top 10.”

“Indeed. Who would’ve thought that Ye Mo would be this incredible? He’s managed to steal all those points without causing any kerfuffle,” Taiyi Qinglian said. As the two of them prepared to find a secluded area to rest, they heard the voice of an enemy.

“As long as two more disciples in the top 10 get killed, those in the next 10 placings will still have a chance to kill their way into the top 10.” Chen Fan walked over slowly, with a sinister look on his face. “What do you guys think?”

“General Fan of the First Heaven Society’s four main generals?” Taiyi Qinglian got her guard up after seeing Chen Fan, shielding Gao Mingkun.

“Taiyi Qinglian, equipped with the Transcendence Lotus, a golden body even greater than the Purple Golden Titan. Don’t worry, or should I say, you don’t have to worry for the time being.”

“What do you mean by that?” Taiyi Qinglian knew that she wasn’t a match for her opponent. After all, the two of them were a tier apart in terms of strength level. Furthermore, her opponent was a generational talent, and his training journey had been filled with miraculous encounters. While she could challenge above her tier, so could he.

“What do I mean?” Chen Fan asked. “That coward Ye Mo has killed several elite fighters on the Seal Cachet rankings. We can’t find him, so we have no choice but to use you as bait to lure him out. But my patience has a limit too. You two have four hours to stay alive. After that, if Ye Mo fails to show up, I’ll kill you two off. Of course, you can forget about escaping.”

Chen Fan stayed calm. Having been defeated by Ye Mo the last time, he was ready to avenge his loss.

“Senior Qinglian, this guy wants to use us to lure Junior Ye Mo out.” Gao Mingkun was infuriated. “We can’t let him do it.”

“Garbage.” Chen Fan squinted his eyes and reached out his hand, sending a palm strike toward Gao Mingkun. An unstoppable golden aura formed into a long halberd that shot out.

Whoosh!

It went through Gao Mingkun’s chest, sending him flying backward, blood pouring onto the ground.

“I’m gonna fight you to the death!”

Witnessing what had just unfolded, Taiyi Qinglian stared coldly as she leaped out in mid-air and unleashed the Transcendence Lotus. A gigantic lotus flower gave off a green glow and continuously spun in mid-air. A countless number of lotus petals were unleashed and rained down on Chen Fan like a wild, violent downpour.

Splat, splat, splat, splat!

Lotus petals sliced Chen Fan’s body and left scars, but they only managed to cause his body to bled light streams of blood – he wasn’t truly injured.

“How is this possible?” Taiyi Qinglian saw what happened and was sent into shock. If it was any normal Eighth Tier fighter on the receiving end of that attack, her lotus petals would have shredded them into pieces.

“If you were also in the Eighth Tier, perhaps you’ll be able to actually hurt me,” Chen Fan said arrogantly. “Why? Would you like to try again?”

“You!”

One move was enough for Taiyi Qinglian to gauge her opponent’s strength. She definitely couldn’t defeat Chen Fan, and was even less likely to be able to escape. Given Ye Mo’s personality, Taiyi Qinglian knew that he would come and save her. But Ye Mo wasn’t strong enough to defeat Chen Fan.

“Third Junior, how are you?”

Retracting her Transcendence Golden Body, Taiyi Qinglian walked toward Gao Mingkun and stuffed a few healing pills into his mouth. But his injuries only worsened.

“Its no use,” Chen Fan said with a light smile. “He won’t be able to heal without a Level Five injury-healing medication. My Purple Gold Aura contains a powerful element of invasion – the speed of the pill’s healing will never be able to catch up to my aura’s speed of invading further into his body. Don’t waste your time.”

“The nerve of you to wound my Third Senior!” An explosive voice was heard from afar as a black shadow was seen carrying a frighteningly powerful spear light blade. That murderous aura caused even Chen Fan’s face to change drastically.

“You’ve finally come.”

Chen Fan let out a mocking smile before he drew his long halberd and clashed it against the spear light blade. In an instant, even the space twisted. By the time the atmosphere returned to normal, he saw that Ye Mo was already beside Taiyi Qinglian.

“How is Third Senior?” Ye Mo asked anxiously.

“His body’s been devoured by the Purple Gold Aura, and he’s in serious danger,” Taiyi Qinglian said, frowning. “I’m afraid he doesn’t have much time left.”

“Let me try.” He placed a palm over Gao Mingkun’s chest and checked on his body’s condition.

“Ye Mo, there’s no point in trying,” Chen Fan said. “Those who are wounded by my Purple Golden Aura cannot be saved. If you can do it, I’ll chop my own head off and let you kick it around like a football.”

Chen Fan didn’t rush into action. Instead, he wanted to see how Ye Mo was going to heal Gao Mingkun.

Ignoring Chen Fan’s words, Ye Mo awoke his Light of the Glorious Sun. Drop by drop, it entered Third Senior’s body through his pores, repairing the body parts that had been devoured while removing the Purple Golden Aura.

The most powerful aspect of the Light of the Glorious Sun was its healing factor. As long as the Energy Center was left unhurt, it could even repair one’s flesh from bare bones.

In a moment, life was injected into Gao Mingkun’s face once again.

“Alright, Third Senior, you’re fine now. Sit here and keep recovering. Now, I’m going to go twist off someone’s head.”

Ye Mo gave Chen Fan a death stare as his aura exploded.

This time, he had to be quick and bring his seniors away to safety. Once the other four arrived, there would be no chance to escape.
