The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood - Chapter 116
Chapter 116: Enhancing the Formation-Breaking Spear
Without hesitation, Ye Mo took out both the Formation-Breaking Spear and the Cursed Pearl. He looked at the pearl as the Rising Dragon Pillar started to vibrate as if the pillar wanted the pearl for itself.
Absorbing all the Cursed Energy from the pearl could help awaken more Dragon Energies, but recovering the power of the Sky Blood Spear’s spearhead was more important. The pearl was one of a kind.
Ye Mo threw the pearl into the air and impaled it with the spear.
The pearl broke as dark purple Cursed Energy flowed out and formed an intimidating ugly face. The face opened its mouth, and the smaller things in the room began to fly towards it.
Ye Mo stood still as he thrust his spear. The spear left a black shadow in its trail and pierced the face, but it felt like the spear had struck water, not affecting the face at all. Ye Mo pulled back his spear as the hole on the face instantly mended itself.
“Curse you!” the face shouted. “I’ll kill you all!”
“Kill!”
The face began to expand as the Cursed Energy seeped out through the windows.
“Ye Mo! The Cursed Essence is in the middle of the face!” Cai Ling shouted anxiously. “You have to destroy and fully absorb it before it starts to expand and attracts unwanted attention!”
Ye Mo kept thrusting the Formation-Breaking Spear towards the face, but it had no effect. The spearhead of the Sky Blood Spear could automatically absorb any Evil Energy it came across and could release them when it killed a person, yet the spearhead refused to absorb the Cursed Energy. It felt like the Cursed Energy was not decent enough for it to absorb. The Cursed Energy was a few levels lower than the Evil Energy, and it wasn’t the purest Cursed Energy in the world.
There was no way that the Sky Blood Spear which was used to absorbing high-density Evil Energy would submit to the impure Cursed Energy.
The Cursed Energy began to surround Ye Mo and Cai Ling. Even if the energy wasn’t able to cause them harm, it would still be hard to deal with.
Both of them were still in the city of the Pleasure Valley. Only danger would await them if they were to be seen by the guards.
“Let’s leave this Cursed Energy here. It should be enough to buy time for us to escape,” Cai Ling shouted.
The whole inn was already shrouded in the Cursed Energy. All the weaker warriors’ bodies were infiltrated by the energy, causing their own energy to go berserk. They fell one by one and went into a seizure.
“M’lady, over there!” one of the guards pointed at the inn and shouted.
Screams could be heard from the inn as it was shrouded in purple clouds.
Xiaoyao Meiqi’s face darkened as soon as she saw what was happening. If the Cursed Energy were to spread, the city would fall into despair.
“That damn Ye Mo! He’s going to kill us all!” Xiaoyao Meiqi cursed. “Hurry up and inform the City Lord to return at once.”
“Yes, ma’am!” the guard replied and ran towards the gate.
More than hundreds of guards were standing outside the inn under the order of Xiaoyao Meiqi. Each of them had a crossbow in their hands.
Except for the guards, the people around the inn had evacuated.
“Don’t get too close to the inn!” Xiaoyao Meiqi ordered. “Fire at will!”
The sound of the mechanism in the crossbows echoed throughout the city as they fired their arrows.
The crossbow the guards were holding was called the Thousand Mechanism X-bow. They were standard Mortal Weapons that all city guards used. One arrow from them was enough to impale a stone wall.
The arrows rained over the inn like a swarm of bees.
Xiaoyao Meiqi was not taking any chances. Even if Ye Mo were to die to the Cursed Energy, she still wanted him to die without a full body.
In just a few seconds, the inn crumbled amidst the onslaught of arrows.
“This is what you get for going against us!” Xiaoyao Meiqi laughed. “Did you really think that you could control the Cursed Pearl? You’ll need the help of a True Energy Realm warrior to master the Cursed Will!”
Xiaoyao Meiqi could hear the crumbling sound dissipate. She thought that Ye Mo had already died from being struck by hundreds of arrows.
“You should’ve stayed with me that night and let me absorb all of your energy! At least you won’t die doing nothing!”
Suddenly, the purple cloud stopped expanding.
“Xiaoyao Meiqi!” Ye Mo laughed. “Shouldn’t you be afraid of me by now since you’ve tasted the power of the Heavenly Frost Charm?”
In an instant, the Cursed Energy that was spreading was absorbed by the Sky Blood Spear’s spearhead at an astounding speed.
The cloud was gone, and only a purple pearl remained floating in the air.
“How is this possible?” Xiaoyao Meiqi gasped.
The Cursed Pearl was something that even the City Lord found hard to control, and yet Xiaoyao Meiqi had just witnessed a kid absorb all of it.
Ye Mo stood on the remains of the inn victoriously.
Cai Ling stood behind him and she couldn’t help but sigh at Ye Mo. Ye Mo had far outperformed her expectations. Even the most talented disciple of the Women City was no match for him.
The most important part was that Ye Mo had a kind heart towards those who showed him love and kindness.
Ye Mo had used the Evil Merging Realm to force the spearhead to absorb the Cursed Energy.
“The Cursed Essence!” Xiaoyao Meiqi looked at the purple pearl and shouted at the guards. “Shoot them down!”
The guards quickly reloaded, and another wave of arrows rained towards Ye Mo and Cai Ling.
Ye Mo smiled as he looked at the incoming arrows like he was having fun.
The Cursed Essence suddenly exploded as the sky darkened.
The one-foot long Sky Blood Spear’s spearhead instantly expanded to two feet. It became sharper than before and was completely blood red. Two devilish eyes appeared on it as two sharp blades grew on its back.
The spearhead of the Sky Blood Spear had finally regained its original appearances, now filled with rage and aggression.
