Chapter 238: Wen Canghai’s Trick

Looks like if we want to meet Wen Canghai, we have to sign up for that competition, thought Ye Mo as he walked alongside Yun Chuchu. Forcing his way in would definitely not work. But if he wanted to sign up for the competition, he had to first gather the Spirit Weapon refining materials.

To refine a Spirit Weapon, the first requirement was to have precious materials that were capable of containing the weapon spirit. An example was the Blueflame Sword on Ye Mo’s back. It was forged from the millennium cold iron, cold iron that took a snow mountain a millennia to create. It was extremely hardy and had innate compatibility with cold-attributed Spirit Weapons.

“Ye Mo, look, there are a lot of people there.”

Yun Chuchu was pointing at the public square of Tianhe City. A huge number of people were lined up there to sign themselves up. People of various sects could be seen them. Ye Mo saw two familiar people there, Xue Xiu and Li Tianhe.

When Xue Xiu reached the registration area, he took out a dragon spine that was about three foot long. The dragon spine was as white as snow and radiated a faint gold glow. When the old man in charge of the registration process saw the dragon spine, an expression of shock covered his face.

“Is this a dragon spine?”

The old man had a wide array of knowledge. Therefore, he knew what Xue Xiu was holding with a single glance.

“Indeed, this is a dragon spine. I got it after killing a bone dragon. The dragon soul is still present in the spine. Therefore, this dragon spine will definitely be able to be used to create a dragon weapon spirit. So long as Society Master Wen is willing to help, a decent spirit weapon will definitely be created.”

Noticing the burning gazes everyone was throwing his way, Xue Xiu’s aura started rising, creating numerous crimson chains that fluttered around him. A crimson aura roiled out of his foot, pushing the dust on the ground outward.

The experts of the various sects gave up on their desire to rob him of his dragon spine when they saw this as they realized that this Qingyun League member with crimson hair was not an easy person to deal with.

“Good. The society master will definitely be interested.”

The old man recorded Xue Xiu’s information. Next in line was Li Tianhe. He had similarly taken out a dragon spine for the registration as well. After they completed their signing up process, they left.

“Dragon spine?” Ye Mo recalled that when Xue Xiu, Li Tianhe, and Song Yang killed that bone dragon, they intended to split the dragon spine equally. Recalling this, he took out Song Yang’s storage ring from his own storage ring. Sure enough, he found a dragon spine within as well.

“Chuchu, I’m going to register as well. I might be able to meet Wen Canghai after this. That way, I will be able to pass on this Spirit Weapon and Manor Master Wen’s will to him, completing Manor Master Wen’s final wish,” Ye Mo said.

“Ye Mo, among the people signing up there, some were from different sects. A couple of them even had the strength of Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. Are you confident you can defeat them?” Yun Chuchu asked anxiously.

“So long as I can complete the registration, I will be able to meet Wen Canghai. I will act accordingly at that time. You can return to Qingyun League first. I will return after dealing with this.”

Yun Chuchu was reluctant, yet she agreed to return alone under Ye Mo’s persuasion. Ye Mo then entered the public square and entered the line. While in line, he noticed that although there were a lot of people here, one would not be allowed to register if the materials provided did not meet the required standard.

Among the 10 warriors in front of Ye Mo, only one of them was able to complete the registration. This was indeed how things should be. Only rare materials could be used for Spirit Weapon refinement. These materials also needed to be able to contain a weapon spirit. This made them even rarer.

When Ye Mo’s turn arrived, he took out the dragon spine. Since the old man saw that he was a Qingyun League member, he wasn’t shocked at seeing a dragon spine anymore.

“In three day’s time, go to the Divine Sword Society with this medallion. Someone will be there to bring you to the Divine Sword Pavilion.”

Ye Mo nodded and returned to his cave. He spent the next three days cultivating in his room, not taking a single step outside. Using these three days, he consolidated his cultivation level of Energy Shaping Third Realm. Materializing his origin energy was now an easy feat.

He had also completely familiarized himself with the 800 streams of Dragon Power and could now control them as he wished. If he was to encounter Song Yang at this time, he would be able to defeat him with a single spear. But then, his biggest gain during the three days of cultivation wasn’t his increase of strength. Rather, it was the comprehension he gained on the Will of the Chu Killing Spear.

The Will of the Chu Killing Spear would allow him to unleash a greater attack the more intense the killing intent he had. If Ye Mo was allowed sufficient time to gather his killing intent, he might be able to kill even a True Energy Realm expert.

Of course, this was theoretical. If Ye Mo gathered too much killing intent, his body wouldn’t be able to take it as well. Perhaps he might even drive himself mad from excessive killing intent.

“Finally, three days have passed. I wonder if I will meet that Xue Xiu today. You have been doing everything you can to kill me. Now, it’s about time I get my payback.”

Ye Mo immediately left his cave and sped towards Divine Sword Society. With the medallion in hand, he easily entered the society. Under the housekeeper’s lead, he reached the Divine Sword Pavilion. The moment he entered the pavilion, numerous gazes landed on him. Among them were Xue Xiu and Li Tianhe. Both of them were staring at him in shock, as if they had seen something they couldn’t comprehend.

“How is this possible? How had Ye Mo survived falling down the Cliff of Death?” Xue Xiu was first astonished. Then, his face turned sinister.

“Xue Xiu, look at his aura. He seems to have grown stronger again. Had he stumbled upon a fortuitous encounter after falling down the Cliff of Death instead of dying?”

They speculated that Ye Mo had fallen down the cliff, stumbled upon a fortuitous encounter, and grown exponentially in strength. For some warriors, sudden growth in their strength signified that they had accidentally entered some cave and obtained the inheritance of some expert from there. With a single leap, they reached the upper bound of their current level.

“Had he entered the Skyburn Tomb to get the inheritance of Saint Skyburn? In other words, the Primordial Gold Stick is on him as well?”

Following along the same line of thought, Xue Xiu further guessed, “I doubt so. If he had truly gotten the Primordial Gold Stick, he wouldn’t come here to request for Society Master Wen to refine a Spirit Weapon for him. But he is a dangerous person. We have to get rid of him.”

“Hmph. In any case, he hadn’t turned in his mission at the Martial Practice Hall. Without doing that, he is dead to the Qingyun League. Even if we kill him here, the League will think that he had been killed in the Skyburn Mountain Range.”

Suddenly, a crisp laughter rang out. A middle-aged man walked out of the inner room. He wore golden attire and looked rather frail. His appearance bore a resemblance to Wen Cangtian. Evidently, this was Wen Canghai.

“Haha, guests from afar, it has been rude of me to not personally welcome you at the entrance.”

When Wen Canghai spoke, a trace of origin energy undulation spread along his voice, causing the tables and chairs in the room to start shaking. Of the warriors that had entered the Divine Sword Pavilion, there were three Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warriors, three Energy Shaping Eight Realm warriors, one Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior, Xue Xiu, Li Tianhe, and Ye Mo.

Everyone clasped their hands to show their respect.

“Everyone, take out your materials.”

“Society Master Wen, what is the meaning of this? I thought you will only be refining Spirit Weapons for the warrior that is victorious in the competition?” A bald Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior asked doubtfully.

“Since you guys need my help for weapon refining, it is natural for all of you to give me the materials. As for the winner and loser of the competition, it does not matter since all of you need to die. All 10 sets of material will be mine!”

As Wen Canghai spoke, a golden energy curtain appeared and wrapped around the entire pavilion, sealing it.
