Chapter 651: Profound Silkworm Poison Curse

While Tai Seng was extremely powerful, and his strength was even heightened in the Mountain and River Diagram, it wasn’t enough to let him kill Ye Mo.

Furthermore, since Ye Mo controlled the space completely, all Tai Seng could do was to take a beating from Ye Mo.

“Die!” Ye Mo spotted his chance and revealed his physical form once again. But this time, he morphed into the Five Row Dragon Ape and unleashed his ultimate, strongest attack towards the back of Tai Seng’s head.

Instantly reacting to the attack, Tai Seng turned around and grabbed the spearhead with his hand. With his severe injuries and fading strength, facing Ye Mo’s unleashed Transcendence Golden Body, all he could do was block the attack with all his might.

Both of them used up all the strength that was left in them – one to attack, the other to defend – and reached a stalemate.

“Five Rows Door!”

But, as Ye Mo exhibited the Five Rows Technique again, a countless number of Five Rows Mountain Apes, Titans and Behemoths rushed out toward Tai Seng.

Seeing those beasts charging toward him in the hundreds, Tai Seng’s heart was filled with fear. Retracting both of his hands instinctively, Ye Mo swiftly unleashed another spear attack and exerted force once again, turning Tai Seng’s brain into mush.

Just like that, a fighter in the Half Profound Realm was ambushed and killed by Ye Mo in the Mountain and River Diagram.

Ye Mo dared not stay too long in the diagram himself – unleashing the Mountain and River Diagram would have released its aura into the atmosphere. He immediately jumped out of the Mountain and River Diagram and put it away.

The moment he was out of the diagram, Ye Mo panted heavily – a battle of that nature was extremely taxing in terms of strength and stamina.

With his opponent also in the Mountain and River Diagram, their strength would increase due to the natural qualities of the environment, taking even more effort from Ye Mo to defeat them.

“A Half Profound Fighter is powerful indeed. If we were to fight here, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have made it past three of his attacks. If there was another opponent in the Mountain and River Diagram, it would have been extremely difficult for me to win.”

Using the Mountain and River Diagram to kill required him to fight his opponent one-on-one. Also, he had to ensure that there was no one nearby, as unleashing the Mountain and River Diagram was extremely obvious.

Even still, Ye Mo being able to defeat a Half Profound Realm fighter using his Third Tier Transcendence Realm strength was enough to strike fear into anyone – no one was going to believe him.

In terms of raw strength, it would be difficult for Ye Mo to kill even a strong fighter in the Ninth Tier of the Transcendence Realm.

If his opponent was a Profound World Realm fighter, Ye Mo shouldn’t be able to defeat them even with the Mountain and River Diagram such was their unparalleled existence.

Ye Mo cast his glance toward the Lighting Steel Cage. Seeing that the girl inside was still seated and in the middle of her training, Ye Mo dashed over.

With a spear strike, the Lightning Steel Cage was broken.

“You’re free!” Ye Mo said gently.

The girl with the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse Body slowly looked up at him, revealing a pair of snow colored eyes. She said, “Much thanks. Xiao Can does not know you. Why did you save me?”

“Just treat it a passer-by stopping by to give you a helping hand!” Ye Mo said casually as he prepared to leave.

“Benefactor, wait up!” The snow-eyed girl shouted loudly.

“What’s the matter?” Ye Mo asked.

The girl, Xiao Can, got to her knees, sobbing. “Benefactor, I know that the people who captured me are from the First Heaven Society. Now that you’ve saved me, no matter where I run to, I’ll never be able to escape them. Please, benefactor, I’m willing to give you my body. All I ask for is to stay alive and control the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse to allow me to kill all the people of the First Heaven Society and avenge my kingdom.”

“What?” Ye Mo was in a dilemma. She was right – while he had saved her this time, it was likely that the First Heaven Society would be able to capture her again with ease. When that happened history would repeat itself.

This was the cry of the weak!

There was a rule of the Desolate Mountain that allowed Saints to keep a servant girl around them. But they would never be able to leave their residence.

But Ye Mo was used to living alone. Unless it was Xiao Cao, he was unsure about having someone follow him around. Furthermore, he still had Ling’er around.

“If you don’t want to help me, all I can do is die here.” As Xiao Can spoke, a hint of despair flashed across her eyes. She took out a sharp blade and stabbed it toward her chest.

Ye Mo’s pupils dilated as he flashed across the gap between them, grabbing her wrist with his hand as he said, “Return to the Desolate Mountain with me.”

“Really? You’re really willing to save me?” Xiao Can asked, surprised and delighted.

“Yes!” Ye Mo released her wrist. Turning around, he said gently, “But if you follow me back, you will only be able to be my servant. And, you’ll not be allowed to leave my residence. But, don’t worry, I will help you with your training when I have the time.”

Pssstt!

A sharp blade with the Snow Poison Curse stabbed into Ye Mo’s back. Even his Cage Dragon Armor was unable to defend against the curse invading his body.

Ye Mo kicked out, sending Xiao Can flying backward.

Feeling the invasion of the Poison Curse, Ye Mo’s body started to grow numb. Looking at Xiao Can, who got up slowly, with a death stare, he asked coldly, “Who are you?”

“I am Xue Can, the girl with the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse Body.”

Xue Can slowly walked toward Ye Mo and said, “It’ll be a matter of time before people like you will fall at the hands of a woman. My heart already belongs to the Young Master. It is my honor to be one of the Young Master’s women. Even though I don’t know who you are, you dared to interfere with the plans of the First Heaven Society, which means nothing but death for you.”

“A fighter in the Seventh Tier – you think you can defeat me?” Ye Mo said coldly.

“I have completely mastered the strength of the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse. The blade that I just stabbed you with has already injected the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse into your body. Even a fighter in the Profound Heaven Realm wouldn’t be able to remove the curse. There’s only one end for you – to wait slowly as the Poison Curse destroys your internal organs.”

As she spoke, she struck Ye Mo, slashing her blade across his throat.

With his body under attack by the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse, it could be said that the Cage Dragon Powers had already been invaded by a truly mastered power like this. Unable to channel any form of power, he could only raise both of his hands and protect his own neck.

Bam!

Ye Mo was sent flying by Xue Can, crashing against a boulder wall.

“The painting that you unleashed just now should be the legendary Mountain and River Diagram, right? Quickly hand it over.”

Xue Can reached out her snow-white arm and said, “Since you saved me, hand over the Mountain and River Diagram and I won’t kill you. Instead, I’ll let you die slowly. If not, I’ll kill you immediately.”

“You want the Mountain and River Diagram?” Ye Mo replied coldly, half-kneeling. “You think that’s possible?”

“Have you not experienced the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse invading your internal organs? If you look for a high-level doctor now, you may still keep half a life. A Mountain and River Diagram for half a life – it’s a good trade.”

Xue Can’s face revealed a longing expression, as if she was being ill-treated.

Who would’ve thought that hidden beneath her gentle and frail exterior was pure evil?

“Brother Ye Mo, hand the Mountain and River Diagram over to her,” Ling’er said from inside the Xu Mi Ring. “If we use the Light of the Glorious Sun, we still have a slim chance of surviving. If not, you’ll die for sure.”
