The Material Emperor With Dragon Blood
Chapters. 15

“My speed is still too slow. If I can break through Mortal Gates on both my legs, I can increase my speed and fight against First Realm Spirit Cultivating First martial artists without breaking a sweat. ”

Ye Mo did not like the fact that he had just stood up against Xiao Feng. Instead, he started to analyze the match he had just played. Ye Mo had yet to reach the Cultivating Spirit Realm, so he could not utilize his energy as quickly as he wanted.

"Not bad . It seems like your senses are quite sharp. What is lacking is your speed, but we cannot blame you for that, ” Xiao Feng said.

"I will try my best to open one of the Mortal Gates at my feet before the tournament," Ye Mo said.

"Two on the second floor were Second Spirit Cultivating Realm martial artists. You better give it everything you got. M'lady has great hopes for you, ” Xiao Feng said and left Martial Pavilion.

After practicing Heaven Piercing Puncture for a few more hours, Ye Mo left Xiao's house. He was still dueling Ye Ming that night in the bamboo forest. Even though Ye Mo knew Ye Ming must have prepared something, he would still leave because it was time for them to end their rivalry once and for all.

The night came and the temperature dropped. Ye Mo finished his dinner and went to the bamboo forest, not forgetting to warn Senior Fu to stay indoors that night.

The forest was empty when Ye Mo arrived. The atmosphere was pleasant, like a sleeping lion would wake up at any moment and jump its prey. Ye Mo became cautious because he knew what kind of person Ye Ming was.

"So he's just talking and there's no show?" Ye Mo said while looking around. Suddenly, a flash came from deep within the forest, and a flying dagger shot towards Ye Mo.

Ye Mo was surprised by the surprise attack. He focused his vision and used Dragon Energy to dodge the attacks. The dagger flew past him and crashed into the bamboo behind him.

"Mortal Weapon!"

The attacker did not wait for Ye Mo to recover. The other ten flying daggers formed a straight line in the air and shot towards Ye Mo.

The dagger that shot out at the first Ye Mo had red Spiritual Energy on it, appearing like a thin barrier that wrapped around the dagger. That energy was not fully activated, which could only mean that it came from someone in the Spirit Fertilizing Realm.

If all 10 daggers had hit Ye Mo, he would have already died. He moved the two channels of Dragon Energy to the Mortal Gate of his mind, doubling his reaction speed. Every dagger that shot towards Ye Mo slowed down to the point where he could easily dodge them.

But Ye Mo chose not to. Like a snake, he stretched out his hand and caught all the daggers. The red energy on them began to evaporate. One of the Dragon Energies roared in his right hand and with a single move, he threw a dagger in the direction where it came from.

The bamboo around where the dagger hit everything broke.

"Don't hide like a coward. Come out and face me, ”thread Ye Mo.

“It never occurred to me that you would be able to avoid that dagger. "The sound came from the forest. Ye Ming walked out of the darkness, his arms folded in front of his chest.

Ye Mo scanned the forest and did not see anyone else. "So, you dare to come alone?"

'' Now that I have broken through the Mortal Gate of my mind, I have reached the First Spirit-Grown Realm. I'm now strong enough to deal with you alone. '' Ye Ming smirked and started attacking Ye Mo.

The martial artists in the Cultivating Spirit Realm were able to manifest Spiritual Energy outside of their bodies. They can also add elements to their Spiritual Energy through mental cultivation and increase their speed by absorbing natural energy. One could only be considered a martial artist once they reached the Spirit Cultivating Realm.

Ye Mo smiled and awakened the Snake Spirit Palm to counter Ye Ming's attack.

“Fathers of the Spirit Snake? Feel my Buddhist palm! ”

Ye Ming grinned as he watched Ye Mo use the Spirit Serpent's Palm. He shifted his red Spiritual Energy to his right palm and pushed forward. The wind grew from Ye Ming's attack and the bamboo behind Ye Mo trembled drastically.

The Buddha Palm was a High Level Spiritual Level martial technique that had made the Ye Clan famous. Ye Mo had always wanted to learn that technique but never had the chance because it was only taught to direct the disciples of the Ye Clan.

Swish!

Ye Mo's fingers cut through the air. With the help of one Dragon Energy, his attack possessed the power of a Spirit Cultivating First Realm attack. Who would win the fight between two High-end High-tier martial techniques depended on who would be able to use their techniques better.

"The Buddha's Hand!"

"Push to Heaven!"

Bang out!

Ye Mo's fingers collided with Ye Ming's palm, the pressure from the clash blowing all the leaves around them. The two of them were each thrown into the back of six feet, but the indentation could clearly be seen in the palm of Ye Ming's hand.

Ye Mo fought against the palm with his finger. Dragon Energy had more power than normal Spiritual Energy. A mere Buddhist palm would not be enough to stand face to face with a mighty dragon. It was an ancient beast, one that could fight against the gods themselves, the ruler of all beings.

Ye Ming was confident that he could defeat Ye Mo now that he would reach the First Spirit Cultivating Spirit. He never thought that he would lose on their first collision. Enraged, he ran towards Ye Mo, as if his legs had merged with the wind itself.

The Wind God Kick!

Ye Mo's vision was unable to catch up with Ye Ming's speed. All he could see was the shadow of Ye Ming's movements.

From right! Ye Mo retreated a little, but he was already too late. Ye Ming had arrived on his right side, landing countless kicks onto Ye Mo.

Ye Mo continued to use his hands to protect himself.

"Dead!" Ye Ming made an extra effort in his final kick and sent Ye Mo flying. He took another dagger in his hand. The dagger was different from the one he had used before. A powerful Spiritual Energy trembled throughout the blade.

Swish!

The dagger cut through the air and flew straight towards Ye Mo with incredible speed. With only one channel of Dragon Energy in Mortal Gate in his mind, Ye Mo was not fast enough to react.

The dagger directly pierced through Ye Mo's chest and blood started to come out. However the dagger did not stop, but instead twisted back strangely and flew towards Ye Mo again.

Ye Mo quickly focused the third channel of Dragon Energy into his right hand and tried to catch the dagger.

"You seek your own death. Do you think you can catch Magic Weapons with your bare hands? ”Ye Ming grinned. Although there was only a level difference between a Mortal Weapon and a Magic Weapon, Magic Weapons allowed users to put their Spiritual Energy into it. Such weapons can cut hair or cut steel.

Any martial artist from the Spirit Cultivating First Realm could fight one-on-one with the Second Realm if they used Magic Weapons.

Ye Mo caught the dagger with his hand, but barely. His two Dragon Energies roared and exploded, taking out the original Spiritual Energy that was inside the blade and sending it flying towards the bamboo row, cutting everything in half.

Ye Ming's expression changed as he looked at what was happening in front of him. How could he catch a dagger? Even Spirit Cultivating Second would not dare to try that.

Ye Ming noticed that the dagger was now in Ye Mo's hands and shouted furiously, “Ye Mo! Return the dagger at once and I will save you! ”

“Never think about it. You made a hole in my body. What makes you think I gave it back? ”Ye Mo smile. Magic weapons are expensive and powerful. They can even attack someone in the dark.

"Give me the dagger!" A cold voice shouted from Ye Ming's back. A man with long hair walked out of the forest. He had facial features identical to Ye Ming and the face of a powerful martial artist.
