“I should think of something else instead.” Ye Mo ultimately shook his head and ignored the evil Ling’er as he walked toward the stairs.

“Thinking of fleeing? It’s not going to be that so easy.” When the evil Ling’er saw Ye Mo trying to leave, a sinister smile formed on her face. She reached out with her hand and captured Ye Mo with rings of light before saying, “This is a seventh-tier binding seal. Just surrender and do as told.”

“She sure is Ling’er’s other half.” Ye Mo gazed at the evil Ling’er and remembered the other Ling’er, who kept calling him Brother Ye Mo. Activating the Rising Dragon Pillar, Ye Mo’s body shook and broke free of the binding. He left the tenth floor.

“How is it possible that this fellow can break free of my binding seal?” When the evil Ling’er saw that, she had a weird feeling of deja vu, but shortly after, she grew furious, “Old bastard! I want to leave! I want to kill you!”

Back on the ninth floor, Ye Mo finally sensed that there was a powerful seal on the tenth floor, one capable of locking Ling’er there yet unable to prevent other warriors from entering.

Ye Mo calmed himself. He was now in the Transcendence Realm. After the fight with Ding Badao, it would probably be time for him to return to the Door of Desolation. With Mu Sang’s death, the Asura Palace was under threat from all sides. Now that Ye Mo’s strength had grown greatly, he would be able to defend the glory of the Asura Palace.

After tidying up his clothes and checking the time, he found that his one day in the Heavenly Seal Tower was nearly up. He went down the stairs.

When he arrived at the fourth floor, he saw Xia Shiyun seated cross-legged before one of the seals. Her fair forehead was covered with beads of sweat and her brows were tightly furrowed. Ye Mo’s face fell at the sight. He could sense that Xia Shiyun was trying to comprehend a copy of a heavenly seal called the Blazing Cow Demon.

Ye Mo’s Heart Transcendence charged into the same seal. Xia Shiyun’s Heart Transcendence took the shape of a fairy. It was about 11 meters in height and was extremely pretty. On its back was a pair of large wings, and, currently, it was lying on the ground while the Blazing Cow Demon charged at it. If the attack landed, Xia Shiyun’s Heart Transcendence would be greatly damaged.

“You’re courting death!” Ye Mo’s Heart Transcendence shone brightly before charging forward and unleashing a punch.

Bang!

The punch was like the fury of a mountain. The powerful attack contained a trace of sharp fist energy, which originated from the Zhu Immortal Divine Fist that now contained the metal element of the five elements. Ye Mo’s Heart Transcendence had fused with the Five Elements Energy Core’s Metal Core, and he had completely comprehended the power of metal. Metal represented absolute force and sharpness.

The fist shot out, accompanied by a dazzling golden radiance. Countless golden rays shot out and combined with the berserk fist power, the rays pierced through the Transcendence Fourth Realm Blazing Cow Demon. The flame on its body wavered before it collapsed onto the ground.

“You’ve reached the Transcendence Realm?” asked Xia Shiyun as she looked at Ye Mo’s Heart Transcendence. And when she saw the objects orbiting the Heart Transcendence, she was shocked. Was that still the Transcendence Realm?

“Yes. Let’s go. Our day is almost up.”

Ye Mo’s Transcendence Golden Body had a shocking form. It was completely different than all other Transcendence Golden Bodies, and when it revealed itself to others, everyone who laid eyes on it would be shocked as well.

Xia Shiyun stared at him blankly, and she remained in a daze before she finally nodded and withdrew her Heart Transcendence. Her body was seated cross-legged and gasping for breath. If it weren’t for Ye Mo’s help, her Heart Transcendence could have been greatly damaged, causing her cultivation level to plummet.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

They heard a loud rumbling sound from outside the Heavenly Seal Tower. It was the sound of the tower shutting down. If they remained until the tower was completely shut, they wouldn’t be able to leave.

The two quickly rushed out of the tower.

“Ye Mo, be honest,” Master Fu Qian asked when they were outside. “What did you do when you left that one time? Don’t tell me you went out for the toilet or something like that.”

“Master Fu Qian, can’t you sense that Ye Mo is already in the Transcendence Realm?” Xia Shiyun said with a smile.

“What? Transcendence Realm?” Master Fu Qian’s eyes widened, then narrowed again. “So the phenomenon earlier actually came from your breakthrough into the Transcendence Realm? That’s too scary. That was a Transcendence Tribulation with all five elements, and I reckon everyone noticed it.”

“Is that so?” Ye Mo shrugged but didn’t deny that it was him. “But I doubt anyone will realize it was me, right?”

“We only sensed the undulation of the Transcendence Tribulation,” Master Fu Qian said. “It was truly too scary. You were advancing into the Transcendence First Realm yet your tribulation is already so strong. I reckon you’re far stronger than a regular Transcendence First Realm, too. The Spirit Sky Residence will definitely lose the match.”

“Even before my breakthrough, Ding Badao wasn’t a match for me,” Ye Mo said. “Since there’s a bet on the match, the Bamboo Forest Fort will be able to earn a lot out of it.”

“That’s right. Ding Badao’s defeat is certain. Why don’t we wager on Ye Mo’s victory?” Xia Shiyun proposed. Nobody knew that Ye Mo had broken through, so the odds for the bet were still 50:50.

“Haha, I’ll be shameless this one time and wager on Ye Mo’s victory as well.” Master Fu Qian smiled. Nobody would say no to a sure-fire bet.

Since Ye Mo still needed to go look for Nangong Wushang, he didn’t return to the Bamboo Forest Fort with Xia Shiyun.

“Boss Ding Chi!” Ding Chune who was hiding nearby said, “Ye Mo didn’t follow Fu Qian after leaving the Heavenly Seal Tower. This is a perfect opportunity. Let’s follow him and see where he’s going.”

“Haha, this is perfect. He seems to be heading to the city gates. Is he leaving the city?”

“Let’s go with him.”

Swish!

The two merged with the shadow and tailed Ye Mo.

Due to the large crowd in the city, Ye Mo had not noticed the two men trailing him. He only wanted to see if Nangong Wushang was done purchasing what he needed and was waiting at the gate.

The moment Ye Mo stepped out of the gate, he scanned his surroundings. It was then that he noticed that two auras had locked onto him.

“Who is it?”

He turned around and saw two people dressed in black, both of them had their arms crossed.

“Ye Mo, no need to be scared,” Ding Chune said. “We’re here to propose a transaction with you. You’ll benefit from it. Our master has wagered 100,000 Transcendence Pills on Ding Badao’s victory. Therefore, you need to throw the match.”

Ding Chune rushed toward Ye Mo and unleashed his aura, trying to subject Ye Mo to an intense suppression. A projection of an ancient crocodile appeared above him as his blood started rushing within his veins.

“Oh? Are you saying that if I defeat Ding Badao, your master will lose 100,000 Transcendence Pills?” Ye Mo replied with a cold laugh.

“That’s right. We can pay you 10,000 Transcendence Pills for you to throw the match.” Ding Chi stepped forward and exerted more pressure on Ye Mo.

“But I’ve already wagered one million Transcendence Pills on my victory,” Ye Mo said. “Your 10,000 Transcendence Pills aren’t enough.”

“I see. So it seems like only force will work on you,” Ding Chune said as he raised a massive sword about three meters long. “Since that’s the case, we won’t be offering you anything then. You can die right now. Missing the match is still a defeat.”

Without saying anything else, he slashed down at Ye Mo.

Ding Chi also started attacking Ye Mo. The two weren’t going to stop without killing Ye Mo.
