Chapter 500: Inner Peak

Zhao Xin’s life was extremely similar to Ye Mo’s. So, Ye Mo decided to give him a little help. At the very least, he would help Zhao Xin regain his confidence and pride. Zhao Xin had an excellent talent for cultivation. That shouldn’t go to waste.
After leaving the Divine Treasure Guild, Ye Mo returned to the Asura Palace, preparing to extract the Divine Dew.
He returned to his room and shut the door. After sitting cross-legged, he took out the Shadowdemon Sky Severing Blade. He didn’t intend to let Hong Ling devour the dagger. Instead, he was planning to give it to Nangong Yurou so she could protect herself. But as for the sheath, he’d be extracting the Divine Dew from it.
“Hong Ling, how should I extract the Divine Dew?” Ye Mo asked.
“Take your cauldron out,” Hong Ling said. “Try burning the sheath in the cauldron. You’ll know what to do after that.”
Ye Mo took his cauldron out and tossed the sheath inside. It was the same cauldron he had gotten from the Long Armed Ape Monkey.
Ye Mo flicked his finger, sending a tongue of flame into the cauldron.
With a whoosh, the cauldron filled with flame. With the light from the fire, Ye Mo could see a tiny drop of golden water forming on the sheath. He was astonished. How was it that easy?
“It’s coming out so fast?” Ye Mo said. “It’s not fake, right?”
“It definitely won’t come out just from burning,” Hong Ling said. “But since you have it in a cauldron, you’re refining it. Stop talking. Keep going. Extract all the Divine Dew you can.”
Ye Mo stopped talking and increased the heat. It had been a while since he concocted any pills. His control over the flame had deteriorated slightly.
The flame burned, and the golden liquid congealed on the sheath. Slowly, the liquid dripped off the sheath.
And finally, when the energy within the sheath was fully exhausted, the clump of flame vanished. Only a little golden liquid was left dripping off the side. Ye Mo took out a bottle and gathered the liquid.
“So this is the Divine Dew?” Ye Mo looked at the golden liquid curiously.
“If you consume it, you might be able to reach late-stage Heaven’s Strength Realm immediately,” Hong Ling said with a smile.
“No thanks,” Ye Mo said. “It’s better to use it for your sheath instead. I don’t intend to keep fighting off greedy fools trying to steal my weapon.”
Ye Mo put the Divine Dew away and sat down cross-legged, beginning his cultivation. He activated the Cosmos Energy Gathering Formation, causing the spiritual energy to rush into his body at a crazy speed. The speed in which his Energy Center revolved also increased sharply. The terrifying cultivation speed was very satisfying for Ye Mo. He continued cultivating and didn’t stop until early the next day.
“Junior Brother Ye Mo? How’s your cultivation?” Taiyi Qinglian asked from outside the room.
Ye Mo opened the door and saw Taiyi Qinglian standing on a lotus leaf, staring straight at him.
“Ye Mo, I came looking for you yesterday but Mao Mao said you went outside,” she said. “Your performance at the Desolate Ancient World was outstanding. I’m planning to bring you to the Inner Peak today. With your talent, you should be able to attract the attention of some old fellows. But be careful. Even though you won first place during the trial, the elders are proud old men. Be polite, or all your strength will mean nothing to them.”
Taiyi Qinglian raised her hand. Lotus petals appeared around Ye Mo and formed into a lotus platform. Riding on the platform, Ye Mo and Taiyi Qinglian soared into the air and headed straight to the Door of Desolation’s Main Peak.
Taiyi Qinglian’s move caused Ye Mo to inwardly exclaim in admiration. His senior sister’s cultivation must be at some extremely terrifying level.
She was able to shape her true energy to form a lotus platform, carrying both of them on it. It was as if her true energy had blended into nature itself.
In the span of several breaths, the lotus platform streaked across the sky, went by the Outer Peak, and arrived at the Heavenly Bridge.
When the disciples on guard duty at the Heavenly Bridge saw that the newcomer was Taiyi Qinglian, they didn’t stop her advance.
And riding on the lotus platform, Ye Mo entered the Inner Peak. The Inner Peak had numerous mountain peaks, steep cliffs, and towering ancient trees reaching straight at the sky.
Experts were cultivating on each of the mountains there.
“These Inner Peaks are the external appearance of the Desolate Mountain,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “They’re here for the disciples to cultivate on. The elders aren’t here. They’re in a place called the Immemorial Realm. Only people who are ranked elders or above may enter there.”
She waved her hand, scattering the clouds around them. The lotus platform started ascending at an extremely high speed as if they were heading beyond the clouds.
A boundless sea of clouds appeared before Ye Mo. It was as if he had arrived at paradise.
And when Ye Mo opened his eyes, he saw that hidden amid the clouds was a massive door, over 30,000 meters tall. Their lotus platform was like an ant before it.
“This is the door to the Immemorial Realm,” Taiyi Qinglian explained. Then, she moved the lotus platform and brought them both to the door. On the surface of the door was a strange undulation. Ye Mo could sense a profound will from it, one he couldn’t even begin to comprehend.
To both sides of the door were guards, each of them about 10 meters tall. They all had their Transcendence Golden Bodies active.
The natural spiritual energy was extremely dense up here in the sea of clouds. The guards could maintain their Transcendence Golden Bodies indefinitely. With Transcendence Golden Bodies serving as the guards, they looked rather imposing.
Having Transcendence Realm experts working as guards was too lavish an act, Ye Mo was astonished.
“Senior Sister Qinglian, why are you here?” One of the guards walked over when they saw Taiyi Qinglian and Ye Mo. He smiled. “Have you encountered any problem with your cultivation? Are you here to seek Elder Huo Yun’s guidance?”
“This is the number one new disciple of the latest Desolate Ancient World trial, also a new disciple of our Asura Palace,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “I’m bringing him here to find himself a master.”
“Number one at the Desolate Ancient World trial?” The guard was astonished. “A mid stage Heaven’s Strength Realm cultivation?”
“Us Asura Palace disciples are all freaks,” Taiyi Qinglian said. “Don’t you know that already? Alright, we’re going in now.”
She ignored the guards and flew past them, through the door.
After they entered the Immemorial Realm, a streak of light arrived as an old man entered the Immemorial Realm as well. He was extremely thin, and his hair was completely white. He emanated a powerful aura, one even stronger than Taiyi Qinglian.
What surprised Ye Mo was that behind this old man was another person as well, the young clan leader of the Spirithound Clan, Lin Langya.
“Why is he in the Immemorial Realm?”
Ye Mo was doubtful; with Lin Langya’s level of talent, he wasn’t qualified to be accepted as a disciple of an Inner Peak elder’s disciple. And he wasn’t qualified to appear in the Immemorial Realm either.
