Ye Mo held the seal in his hand and saw that it had the top 30 placings on it. Only the names of the top 30 disciples would be recorded.
“Elder Taotie is truly powerful,” Ye Mo lamented.
“Elder Taotie is a renowned expert in the Zone of Desolation,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “There are only three people stronger than him in this zone.”
“Three people? Who?” Ye Mo was curious.
“First is the society master of the Door of Desolation,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “But it’s been a very long time since he’s shown himself. Some say that he’s already reached the Cosmos Realm and gone to the Zone of Lingwu. Some also say that he’s been in secluded cultivation all along. But nobody knows for sure. The second person is your master, the Saint Ancestor Bloodsaber. She’s at the peak of the Profound Heaven Realm and, with the Blood Devil Saber in hand, her strength is immeasurably profound. The third person is the master of the Zone of Desolation. For her to become the zone master, you can imagine how strong she must be. But she rarely shows herself as well. Very few people have seen her, and I’ve only heard about her.”
The zone master’s status was even higher than the society master of the Door of Desolation.
One could say that all three of them were the apex experts of the Zone of Desolation.
“Alright. Everyone, time to enter Purgatory,” Elder Taotie said. “The three disciples from the Asura Palace may enter first.”
Everyone was stupefied when they heard that. Even the Four Great Generals were stunned.
“This old fool always pretends to be neutral. But, by allowing the three Asura Palace disciples to enter first, he’s obviously protecting them.”
Their original plan was to kill Ye Mo immediately upon entering Purgatory. They’d even planned to kill Taiyi Qinglian and Gao Mingkun as well if they got the chance.
But their plan had now failed with this change in the situation. With Ye Mo and the other two entering first, they would have to spend a considerable amount of effort locating and pursuing them.
“It doesn’t matter,” Chu Tian said indifferently. “Ye Mo will die. It’s only a matter of time.”
He couldn’t understand why the society master had sent all four of them here just to kill Ye Mo. In his opinion, this mission didn’t require all four of them. Liu Qingyun alone was stronger than Ye Mo.
“Ye Mo, be careful,” Dongfang Aotian said. “Don’t get in any sort of contact with the Human Dao Palace disciples when you’re in Purgatory.”
Dongfang Aotian put a hand on Ye Mo’s shoulder and said, “Those four are the Four Great Generals of the First Heaven Society. Every one of them is capable of defeating someone like Mu Sang.”
“Don’t worry,” Ye Mo said. “I already know they’re here to kill me. I’m confident I can handle them.”
Ye Mo shifted his gaze to the pitch-black portal. This was his second time entering Purgatory, and he believed he would have an entirely different experience this time.
In fact, he was even planning to hunt the Heavenly Demon Clan down. Hong Ling had told him that they had the blood of dragons coursing in their veins. By killing them and obtaining the essence in their bodies, he might be able to grow even stronger. That was why he wanted to go to Purgatory even if he had to face the Four Great Generals.
“Ye Mo, you’ve never battled them so you have no idea,” Dongfang Aotian insisted. “Their Transcendence Golden Bodies are all top 40 Transcendence Golden Bodies, and they’re extremely powerful. You won’t be able to contend against them.”
“Yes, they’re quite powerful,” Ye Mo said nonchalantly. “I’ve already experienced the might of the Violetgold Titan. But, one on one, he’s not my match.”
“What? You’ve fought Chen Fan before? And you defeated him?” Dongfang Aotian was astonished. Even Taiyi Qinglian and Gao Mingkun were astonished.
Ye Mo didn’t answer Dongfang Aotian. Instead, he took the lead and stepped into the portal to Purgatory.
This time, when Ye Mo entered, the sinister wind didn’t affect him. Inside, the three quickly moved far away from the portal.
“Senior Sister Qinglian, third senior brother, I think it’s better if we move separately,” Ye Mo said when the three landed on a black cliff. “Both of you are Transcendence Seventh Realm experts. That’s more than enough to deal with the demons here.”
“Junior Brother Ye Mo, I know what you’re worried about,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “You don’t want to involve us with your troubles. But we’re your fellow apprentices. We should face all trials and tribulations together.”
“That’s right!” Gao Mingkun nodded.
“Senior brother, senior sister, I know both of you want to help me,” Ye Mo said. “But this time, the enemies are coming bearing ill intentions. They’re also the Four Great Generals. They’ve already said that they’re going to kill me and steal the Sky Blood Spear and Mountain and River Diagram from me. It’s pointless for us to stick together. In fact, that’ll just distract me.”
Ye Mo spoke the truth. Although Taiyi Qinglian and Gao Mingkun were both in the Transcendence Seventh Realm, against the kind of enemies he was facing, they wouldn’t be of much help.
“Fine. But the moment you encounter any danger, be sure to destroy the seal to notify us.” Taiyi Qinglian nodded and said before flying away.
Ye Mo started traversing Purgatory alone, and after a while, he started blending with his environment. He could sense that the frequency of this place was very high. In fact, it was much higher than even the Zone of Seals and the space within the Mountain and River Diagram.
He took out the seal and checked the top 30 rankings. He found that Chu Tian had first place, Chi Huo the second, Nian Bing third, Liu Qingyun fourth, and Chen Fan fifth.
Taiyi Qinglian’s name was in there too. She was in tenth place. This was a knockout round. Only those in the top 10 would be able to move on to the next round.
And Ye Mo hadn’t even started killing demons yet.
He’d discovered something. The undulation on the seal he held seemed to be formed of a certain profound theory. It formed a connection with the holder of the seal, and he would be able to make use of the undulation of the seal to trace any person on the list.
As he thought of that, he activated his Zhu Immortal Imprint and tried to understand the profoundness behind this seal.
“Seal, energy, connection, undulation.”
Ye Mo sank into deep thought and a mist formed around him.
And, in the blink of an eye, he understood clearly the underlying theory behind the seal.
Looking at the numbers on the seal and the undulation of the connections, his consciousness spread out. He sensed more than 20 undulations at different coordinates. There were a few people in the list he couldn’t find, including the four Transcendence Ninth Realm experts, but, aside from them, he was even able to locate Chen Fan.
This was definitely not the result of his perception. Rather, he was using the undulation of the seal to trace the locations of the others. No one had thought of this, but Ye Mo was able to realize the possibility and had now successfully done it.
There was no longer any need for him to hunt down demons. Instead, he headed straight to the Heavenly Demons so he could use them to increase his strength.
After increasing his strength, he could use the undulation on the seal to trace the Heavenly Palace disciples before killing them and plundering their points.
“Boss, why does Ye Mo still not have any points?” Nian Bing stared at the sea in his hand.”Is he trying to hide like a coward?”
“If he were really planning to hide, he wouldn’t bother to join this competition,” Chu Tian said. “People like him are always incredibly proud. He definitely wants to become the Saint. Perhaps he’s resting and preserving his strength. Ignore him for now. We’ll spend a day hunting demons to stabilize our positions. We can use the last two days to hunt Ye Mo and get his Sky Blood Spear and Mountain and River Diagram.”
As he spoke, Chu Tian slammed his palm to the side, killing a nearby Transcendence Ninth Realm demon.
