Ye Mo returned to Zi Ning’s residence, intending to inform her before setting off for the Corpse Ghoul Mountain Range. However, Little Mu inford him that Zi Ning had left the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan for so business.
Ye Mo speculated that his mother might have so important matters to attend to, and didn’t sense anything amiss. After telling Little Mu he was going on a mission, he left the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan with the mission scroll in hand.
As he flew along the way, Ye Mo felt as if soone was stalking him.
"That girl Zi Xuan is following you,"
said the little girl.
"I guessed it was her, but I don’t know why she’s following . Could it be that she’s also heading to the Corpse Ghoul Mountain Range?"
Ye Mo speculated secretly, his body flickered, and he instantly vanished from his original spot.
Following Ye Mo, Zi Xuan saw him suddenly accelerate and couldn’t help but pout, "Trying to shake off? It’s not that easy. It’s said that in the Corpse Ghoul Mountain Range, many ancient unique clan corpses have fallen, and they hold a lot of ancient martial techniques. If I could find them and give them to Brother Aotian, he would definitely achieve a top-three rank in the Lingwu Genius Battle. I can also see what Ye Mo’s true strength is."
Imagining the scene of handing ancient martial techniques to Zi Aotian, a smile appeared on Zi Xuan’s face, and she sped up as well.
Zi Xuan was a bit younger than Ye Mo and hadn’t awakened her bloodline yet, but she had reached the Qiankun Sixth Rotation. Equipped with several Immortal Artifacts, she could even defeat Qiankun Seventh Rotation corpse ghoul beasts if encountered.
Within an hour, Ye Mo reached the Corpse Ghoul Mountain Range. Upon descending into it, he surveyed his surroundings. A miasma engulfed the area, giving the surrounding mountains, trees, and rivers a desolate and eerie feel, filled with a chilling aura.
"I wonder how strong those so-called corpse ghoul beasts really are."
Just as Ye Mo was about to advance, he heard the little girl’s voice.
"Brother Ye Mo, don’t rush forward just yet. This place feels familiar to ."
There was a hint of doubt in the little girl’s voice.
"Oh?"
Ye Mo halted, glancing around. The miasma was indeed peculiar, hindering the ntal exploration of martial artists and making every step feel fraught with endless danger.
"The little girl indeed has been here before. It used to be the territory of an ancient evil clan during the troubled tis when Lingwu Continent was in chaos. The evil clan was so monstrously fiendish that all major forces on the continent dispatched strong warriors to annihilate them. I suspect these corpse ghoul beasts are likely the corpses of those ancient unique clan mbers turned into demon beasts."
The little girl recalled and quickly explained.
"Doesn’t that an there are nurous Wheel of Reincarnation Realm corpse ghoul beasts here?"
Ye Mo exclaid in surprise, "The mission states I should bring back 100 demon cores from the corpse ghoul beasts."
"Those corpse ghoul beasts are ford from the gathering of corpse qi on the bodies of those mighty warriors, condensing demon cores to form the beasts. Their defenses are undoubtedly very strong, but their strength might be only as the mission suggests: at most Wheel of Reincarnation Realm level. You don’t need to worry so much. You can roam freely here without fear,"
the little girl chuckled and continued, "Moreover, if you’re lucky, you might find so treasures on these corpse ghoul beasts. So even possess Wheel of Reincarnation Realm bodies, and refining them with the Devil Refining Gourd could help you quickly reach the Qiankun Sixth Rotation."
The little girl’s words shook Ye Mo’s mind.
Aside from taking on this mission for its challenge, Ye Mo chose it because it was close to Lingzhou, allowing him to visit Sect Master Huadong.
These corpse ghoul beasts were the bodies of the ancient unique clan, containing treasures, and by refining their bodies, he could break through to Qiankun Sixth Rotation.
"I’m going to slay all the corpse ghoul beasts here."
With a focused gaze, Ye Mo sensed a disturbance in the distance. He soared into the sky, transforming into a light beam, piercing through the miasma and flying towards the source.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ye Mo’s speed was terrifying. As he flew, trees were either sliced apart by his body or exploded outright.
Suddenly, a low growl reached his ears, followed by a sword light as swift as lightning, slicing through the miasma, striking from afar, and reaching Ye Mo’s side, as if trying to cleave him in two.
"It even launched an attack on its own!"
Ye Mo snorted coldly, squeezing the sword light with a giant hand, crushing it imdiately. As his hand touched the sword light, he felt dozens of wills embedded within, causing his movents to pause. If not for his formidable strength, the wills would have indeed affected him.
"These corpse ghoul beasts retain their battle consciousness from when they were alive, unleashing over a dozen wills,"
Ye Mo thought silently, his body rushing towards the source of the sword light attack. He quickly discovered a tattered man standing in a small ravine. His entire skin was a dark purple-black, expressionless, with vacant eyes, wielding a top-grade celestial weapon.
The aura on him was incredibly strong, at least possessing Qiankun Fifth Rotation strength. Even the slightest movent would tear the land apart and pierce the heavens.
At that mont, the corpse ghoul beast seed to have noticed Ye Mo. Its lifeless eyes fixed on Ye Mo hovering in mid-air. Just as it was about to attack, Ye Mo had already reached its body, launching the Immortal-Slaying Thunder Fist.
BAM!
Despite landing a punch, he couldn’t instantly pierce the opponent’s body, realizing that its physique was likely at the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm, with astonishing defense, making it nearly impossible to kill barehanded.
"No wonder not many people dare co here."
Ye Mo wasted no words, summoning the Heavenly Snare Blood Spear. The Blood Fiend Energy surged out, sweeping away the surrounding miasma. With a spear thrust, the Evil Qi activated, countless spear lights slashing horizontally, mixed with various will attacks, weaving into a vast net enveloping the opponent’s body, imdiately piercing through it, leaving nurous holes.
Ye Mo flicked his spear, capturing a demon core in his hand, then took away the demon core celestial weapon, inspecting the opponent’s body, and used the Devil Refining Gourd to collect the remains.
Just as he was about to leave, loud sounds of combat echoed from afar.
Frowning, Ye Mo looked towards the source of the conflict, spotting a towering giant and in mid-air was none other than the struggling girl Zi Xuan, caught in trouble.
"That’s the renowned Mountain Ridge Giant from the ancient unique clan, known for its formidable defense, now turned into a corpse ghoul beast. It looks like that girl is in trouble,"
the little girl said.
"To venture into the Corpse Ghoul Mountain Range with just Qiankun Sixth Rotation strength is truly reckless."
Ye Mo moved swiftly, darting over.
