The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 1184 - 1185: Soul Origin

The news of Fu Chen’s demise rapidly reached the Seven Great Super-First-Rate Powers, many strong figures accused Fu Rong, but Fu Rong volunteered to be punished.

Nevertheless, the pressure was taken on by Fu Chen’s disciple, as they all knew Fu Rong was manipulated by the Soul Master.

Moreover, Fu Rong was willing to make amends, assist in rebuilding the Fu Sect, and fulfill Fu Chen’s unfulfilled wishes.

Fu Rong’s sealing skills were equal to Fu Chen’s, expanding the Fu Sect was naturally not an issue, but numerous disciples within the Fu Sect held deep resentment towards her. She needed time to transform their image of her.

And so, the storm subsided.

Except for those in the Fu Sect, no one could fathom how thrilling that battle was.

At this moment, Ye Mo appeared in a grand hall of the Fu Sect.

At the center of the hall was Yao Xuanzi, alongside some elders from the Fu Sect and Fu Rong. Looking at their pale expressions, it was clear they hadn’t fully recovered.

"Ye Mo, the reason we’ve summoned you this time is for the rewards from the Rune Convention. According to the rules, a Half-Deity Level Charm Spirit is to be awarded to you besides taking Fu Chen as your master. Now the Half-Deity Level Charm Spirit is gone, Fu Chen has fallen, and for the time being, we cannot think of what to reward you with. We heard that the little girl has been with you all along, and since she sacrificed herself to bring peace to the Lingwu Continent, the Elders Council collectively decided to grant you a position as the Deputy Sect Master of the Fu Sect."

One of the elders spoke.

"What? Deputy Sect Master?"

Ye Mo was startled upon hearing this and seemed not to expect such a decision.

Ye Mo was fully aware of the Fu Sect’s influence. Although Fu Chen had fallen, with Fu Rong possessing sealing skills and strength not weaker than Fu Chen, the Fu Sect’s power remained formidable. Even the Seven Great Super-First-Rate Powers dared not provoke the Fu Sect.

"Indeed, currently Yao Xuanzi temporarily holds the position of Sect Master. When you reach the Divine Venerate Realm, we plan for you to take over as Sect Master."

Another elder continued.

"No, no, I am not of the Fu Sect. If you made me your Deputy Sect Master, there would certainly be rumors."

Ye Mo declined repeatedly.

"You are the champion of the Rune Convention and forged a ninth-grade seal at such a young age, becoming the foremost among the younger generation. Plus, the teacher passed the Suppression Celestial Seal onto you, granting you every qualification. Do not refuse this. Your role as our Deputy Sect Master is a decision made after deliberation by our elders."

Yao Xuanzi said, tossing a token to Ye Mo, "This is the Fu Sect’s Sect Master’s Token. The entire Fu Sect holds only two. Though currently, you may not wield the Sect Master’s Token’s powers, carrying it will surely benefit you."

The identity of Fu Sect’s Deputy Sect Master was enough to intimidate many; even the Seven Great Super-First-Rate Powers couldn’t ignore such a figure.

Ye Mo ultimately accepted this identity, carrying the token, perhaps saving him many troubles in the future.

Currently, his focus remained on cultivation.

Moreover, due to Ye Mo’s presence, the Bamboo Forest Fort gained prominence. Additionally, Hou Qinglong showcased his worth as Ancestor Wuji’s successor, astonishingly forging a Celestial Weapon, leaving Ye Mo admiring Hou Qinglong’s talent as an Artifact Refiner.

Meanwhile, Ye Mo entered the Genius Badge, beginning his secluded cultivation.

Presently, he had awakened one billion units of Tomb Dragon Power, heart force reached the ninth rank, coupled with Dragon Blood intensity reaching the ninth rank’s Dragon Form; he dared to confront Martial Artists at the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations.

However, he was dissatisfied. Having experienced the battle at the Rune Convention, absorbing the massive energy not only awakened one billion units of Tomb Dragon Power but also pushed his cultivation to a bottleneck again, urgently seeking a breakthrough to the Second Transformation of Wheel of Reincarnation. Only then would his strength truly mature, capable of defeating masters of Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations.

Still, Ye Mo clearly understood that beyond the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations was not the Divine Venerate Realm; there remained a significant gap between these levels.

This included a transitional process, the fusion of the Power of Time and space. Their merging was extremely challenging, with seven fusions involved. Each fusion created powerful space-time energy capable of opening the Space-time Gate, calling a thread of Soul origin from alternative dimensions, with higher probabilities of summoning more Soul origins as the Space-time Gate was opened more frequently.

However, if at the Seventh Gate of Time and Space, sufficient Soul origins are not summoned, one would never ascend to the Divine Venerate.

Thus, many masters remained stuck at the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations, not due to a bottleneck but lacking hope of ascension.

Even talents like Zi Xuan experienced delays at the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations because the fusion of Power of Time and space required immense energy.

Additionally, comprehension of the spirit was crucial—the deeper the understanding, the greater the Soul origins summoned upon opening the Space-time Gate.

Records showed that certain geniuses called enough Soul origins without needing to open the gate seven times, forming their Spirit and rapidly advancing to the Divine Venerate Realm.

Of course, such talents were exceedingly rare; ascending to the Divine Venerate upon opening the Sixth-Time Space Gate was considered a genius among geniuses.

Once cultivated, the spirit equated to another life; the spirit remained even if the flesh perished, enabling revival if a way to restore the flesh was found.

Yet, if death led to spirit dissipation, it meant complete annihilation, as with Mu Longwu.

Second Transformation of Wheel of Reincarnation.

Ye Mo now aimed for the Second Transformation of Wheel of Reincarnation. The Soul Master was severely injured by the little girl, diminishing in strength, but once the Power of Laws of the Vanquishing Martial Realm vanished, the Wraith Land’s forces would still invade. With his current strength, he was incapable of intervening.

Despite knowing that even ascending to the Second Transformation, or Third Transformation couldn’t alter the situation, his self-preservation in combat would improve significantly. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

As Ye Mo pondered, his heart suddenly sensed Zi Xuan’s summons. Leaving the Genius Badge’s space, he saw Zi Xuan’s tear-laden face as she flung herself into his embrace.

"Ye Mo, grandfather, grandfather has reached his limit!"

Zi Xuan cried out, "Just now, Elder Fu Yun came saying we received an urgent notification from the clan, urging immediate return to the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan."

"Let us return immediately!"

Ye Mo patted Zi Xuan’s shoulder, his face wreathed in sadness.

Nonetheless, his heart silently exclaimed, entirely unanticipated that the ancestor would implement the plan so swiftly. Perhaps he couldn’t wait any longer?
