Chapter 139: City of Daughters

“Illusionary formation? Interesting. Let me go in and take a look at how powerful this formation is,” said the white-clothed young man as he stepped into the formation.

Above the formation was a huge seal that were spinning repeatedly. A white radiance shone from the seal, forming a circular formation.

This was a type of extremely common formation that could be seen in many cities. The only difference would be the types of the formations.

Some formation would conjure numerous beasts to attack the challenger the moment the challenger stepped in it, serving as a way to improve one’s combat experience. Such formations were commonly seen among the various large clans as they were very helpful when cultivating.

Some formations were able to gather the spiritual energy of heavens and earth. Those entering the formation would found their cultivation speed increasing.

However, such formations were extremely hard to make.

The white-clothed young man stepped into the formation, and before long, his forehead was filled with beads of sweat. Then, a dazzling radiance lit up as the he was bounced out the formation, crashing heavily on the ground.

“Too…too scary!” said the young man with fear on his face.

“Sister Qin, this man is too useless. I reckon he hasn’t even passed a single scenario before he was eliminated. It’s pointless for him to have such good looks but are actually so useless,” said one of the female soldier on guard duty. The female soldier was quite young, probably of same age as Ye Mo. Her lips were red, her tooth were spotlessly white, and her skin was fair. Her tender appearance was a stark contrast from the soldier’s uniform of City of Daughters she was wearing.

“That man is at Energy Shaping First Realm but he only lasted half a minute in the formation,” Ye Mo exclaimed in astonishment before he headed towards the gate with his spear on his back.

“Hey, kid with a spear, if you want to enter, you need to enter the formation. You will only be allowed entry after passing the test. But seeing how you aren’t much older than me, I will give you an advise. Don’t bother trying. Several dozens of people will try passing the test every single day but I have never seen anyone passing,” said the tender female soldier while pointing at Ye Mo.

“I’ll give it a try,” Ye Mo spoke expressionlessly.

“Don’t bother. This illusionary formation is capable of injuring one’s brain Mortal Gate. There are cases where those with insufficient strength have their brain Mortal Gate destroyed. You are only at Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm. It is not advisable to try.” “There is nothing special about our City of Daughters anyway. We only have more women. But our lord castellan is a top tier beauty. Unfortunately, you will probably have to wait until your next life if you want to lay eyes on her,” the young woman continued speaking.

Ye Mo was still young, similar in age as her. His cultivation level was similar as her as well. She was unwilling to see Ye Mo hurting himself just to enter the City of Daughters.

“Hehe, there are no rules prohibiting me from trying, right? I will accept the consequences.” Ye Mo ignored the advice and walked into the illusionary formation. The white-clothed young man did not leave as well. He stayed at the side, staring at Ye Mo.

“The man earlier only lasted half a minute. My guess is this guy will last about 20 seconds,” said a different soldier.

“Ten seconds. No man can last more than 10 seconds!” said the white-clothed man while waving his fan in a graceful manner.

“Why not? You are only slightly stronger than him and you lasted half a minute!” asked the young woman doubtfully.

At this question, the white-clothed man blushed. He shut his mouth and continued gazing at the man in the formation.

The other guards also shifted their focus on the person in the formation.

The moment Ye Mo stepped into the formation, he appeared in a void with an expanse of nothingness all around him.

Next, rumbling sounds rang out as several hundreds Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm Ironblood Fire Buffaloes charged in his direction. These buffaloes were as huge as elephants, and their bodies were shrouded in crimson flame with horns that looked like bloody iron hooks.

The hundreds of buffaloes charged over like a grand stampede, also like a moving wave of flame, presenting an incomparably terrifying sight.

Ye Mo guessed that the strength of the beasts here were in accordance with his strength.

If Ye Mo was an Energy Shaping First Realm warrior, the charging beasts would probably be some Energy Shaping First Realm beasts as well.

Ordinary warriors would probably wet their pants when they were presented with this sight. Hundreds of beasts, each as strong as the warrior, stampeding towards the warrior. Who could hope to survive such a stampede?

“It is no wonder that there are so few men that could enter the City of Daughters. If I don’t have the Rising Dragon Pillar, even with the strength of Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm, I would be killed by the stampede!” Ye Mo gazed at the beasts before him. He pulled the spear from his back while the Dragon Power within him was unleashed. Slowly, his aura started climbing.

Ye Mo stabbed out with his Million Year Extreme Ice spear sheath, meeting the incoming wave of beasts.

Bang!

The first buffalo was pierced through by the spear.

Splat!

Blood splattered everywhere, and immediately after, the blood was frozen solid by the Million Year Extreme Ice. Next, the wave of fire was enveloped by a layer of thick ice. The cold air roiled onward before erupting to create frost everywhere. The frost spread bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eyes before eventually, the entire wave of beasts was frozen.

If someone else was here, they would be extremely shocked at the sight of hundreds of fiery buffaloes turning into a land of frost.

“The spear sheath of the Million Year Extreme Ice is still extremely useful even though it is incomparable to the tip of the Sky Blood Spear. At the very least, it is sufficient to freeze all these beasts.” After the beasts were frozen, they vanished. Next, the environment started changing.

“Are there other tests?” Ye Mo muttered doubtfully. Then, he felt a chill went up his spine. He immediately jumped and stabbed his spear at the enemy. But when he laid his eyes on the newcomer, he stopped.

“Father!” Ye Mo gazed at the steadfast man before him. His pupils shrunk, his heart greatly shaken. Although he knew that this was an illusion, he still wished he could stay with his family.

He knew this was an illusion, yet he couldn’t bear to destroy the illusion. How should he pass this test?

In the illusion, Ye Qing was also at Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm.

He held a sword of flame, the flame seemingly trying to burn the air around him. That sword was Ye Qing’s beloved weapon, called the Spirit of Hellfire. It was a Spirit Weapon forged of Hellfire, and its strength was no weaker than the Sky Blood Spear.

The weapon had gone missing after Ye Qing’s death.

Ye Mo had once asked Ye Qing the whereabouts of that weapon and Ye Qing’s dimensional bracelet. But in order to protect Ye Mo, Ye Qing had not spoken a single word about them.

“Spirit of Hellfire, it is unexpected that it will appear in my illusion. Now that I have seen the actual appearance of this weapon, it will be much easier for me to seek for it. When I finally found it, I will be able to find more clues on my father’s killers,” Ye Mo muttered while dodging Ye Qing’s attacks. He only wanted to look at his father longer.

The illusionary Ye Qing remained silent and continued attacking Ye Mo.

“Goodbye, father!” Ye Mo pierced out, severing the fetters binding him.
