The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood - Chapter 647

Chapter 647: All Profit, No Loss

Hearing Ling’er’s words, Ye Mo’s entire body trembled. That meant that the moment the Young Master comes out and reaches the Profound Heaven Realm, he would be able to suppress the Ancient Poison in his body. Then, he would be able to combine with the Four Main Poison Curse Bodies, and fight poison with poison.

“Darn it, so this is what the Young Master is planning. Looks like I’ll have to give all I have to complete this mission.”

But what bothered Ye Mo was the fact that there was a fighter in the Half Profound Realm among the team. Ye Mo wouldn’t be able to defeat a fighter of that caliber even with his four seals. Furthermore, using the seals would weaken him even more.

And, once his opponents identified him, the consequences would be dire.

He had to ensure that they didn’t recognize him while he killed the Profound Silkworm Poison Curse Body and faced a fighter in the Half Profound Realm. This was the toughest mission that he had ever undertaken.

“Brother Ye Mo, if you want to ensure that this mission is carried out to perfection, the only way is to combine your Heart with the Mountain and River Diagram’s space. With your whole body inside the space of the Mountain and River Diagram, even Half Profound Realm fighters wouldn’t be able to do anything to you.”

Coming out from the Xu Mi World, Ling’er stood beside Ye Mo. Even though she had taken a physical form, she didn’t want to interact with anyone, so she continued her role as Ye Mo’s adviser. The moment someone appeared, she would return to the Xu Mi Ring to hide.

“That’s right,” Hong Ling chimed in. “Combining with the Mountain and River Diagram is the best method.”

“Combining with the diagram?” Ye Mo asked. “That takes Tier Three of Heart Training. I’m far from that.”

“Brother Ye Mo, I’ve already taught you how to cultivate seals,” Ling’er reminded him. “With your current strength, cultivating the Level Four Tier Nine seals will also be able to cultivate your Heart.”

There was no point in Ye Mo cultivating Level Four Tier Eight seals, but Tier Nine seals would cultivate his Heart Deity.

An important process of seal cultivation was that the Heart had to be devoured by the effects of the seal. Only by withstanding the devouring effects of the seals, could the seal be successfully cultivated.

“I’ve used up all the Ninth Tier Transcendence Realm heartstones.” Ye Mo was somewhat sheepish. That caliber of heartstones was extremely rare to begin with. And Nangong Wushang had just helped him collect more than twenty of those heartstones.

“What a fool,” Ling’er scolded him. “You’re now a renowned seal artist in the Desolate Mountain. If you want to cultivate seals, do you really have to get the ingredients yourself?”

Ye Mo’s eyes lit up. He had already invited his fellow Saints to look for him to cultivate seals. If he could collect a thousand Transcendence Pills as a cultivation fee while cultivating his Heart Deity at the same time, this was an all profit, no loss scenario.

Ye Mo picked up the pace and hung a signboard in front of his residence.

“I can take charge of all Level Four Tier Nine Seals. You can come and make a reservation with your heartstones. Transaction fee of 200 Transcendence Pills.”

The transaction fee for the combination of the four seals was 1000 pills. While a single seal could be valued at 300 pills each, Ye Mo decided to decrease the price for the sake of cultivating his heart.

The moment his signboard was on display, Ye Mo found Qiao Yidan and asked him to help spread the message. After an hour, five Saints came to visit.

“Dear seniors, please come in!” Ye Mo opened the door and led the six Saints into his palace.

“Dear seniors, what kind of seals would you all like to cultivate?” Ye MO asked the seniors as they took a seat. “You name it, I can make it. But it has to be a Level Four Tier Nine seal.”

“Junior Ye Mo, we’re all fighters in the Half Profound Realm and require seals to deal with others in the Half Profound Realm,” one of the Saints said. “So, we came to ask you to cultivate the Wooden Restraint seals for us.”

Level Four Tier Nine seals, regardless of whether it was an attack seal or a defense seal, definitely couldn’t hurt Half Profound Realm fighters. But the Wooden Restraint could restrain them, a momentary effort that had unbelievable effects.

“Sure.” Ye Mo nodded. “The price of one seal is a Ninth Tier heartstones and 200 Transcendence Pills.”

“Here are ten wooden-elemental heartstones,” another of the Saints said. “We need ten Wooden Restraint seals. Also, here’s 2000 Transcendence Pills.”

“Hehe, Senior, considering this is my first time doing business, I won’t charge you all the Transcendence Pills. I only need the heartstones. I’ll count on you all to spread the word, deal?”

Conducting business for the first time in a new place, it was a good idea to do some networking and establish some connections. Furthermore, he had no use for the Transcendence Pills anyway. If the first business deal ended in success, it would mean greater profits in the future – Transcendence Pills wouldn’t be a problem by then.

Qiao Yidan witnessed everything and nodded his head in silence. This Ye Mo kid knew his stuff about business.

“That is too kind of you,” one of the female Saints, named Xu Qingqing, said.

“Senior, if you all trust me enough to cultivate the seals, that is enough of an endorsement.” Ye Mo waved her off. “I would still have to rely on all of you to look out for me in the future.”

“Alright then. Since you’ve offered, we’ll accept. As long as you cultivate the seals, and the seals take effect during battles, we’ll put in a good word for you.”

“Hehe, I’ll convey my gratitude then. I won’t delay you all any longer. You can come and collect the seals tonight.”

The others nodded their heads, paid respects to Ye Mo, and left.

As the few of them left, Ye Mo looked at the ten heartstones in his hand and a ball of fire lit up inside him.

He changed the signboard, writing that reservations were full, and that he would take reservations again tomorrow.

Ye Mo closed the doors of his residence and a few people slowly walked over. Seeing the signboard hanging in front of the door, they looked a bit angry.

“Fang Xi, looks like Chu Tian was right. This Ye Mo is clearly lying – he didn’t cultivate those seals at all. Reservations full? I doubt he even had anyone looking for him to cultivate seals.”

“But those four seals that he unleashed were extremely powerful. Boss Chu Tian said that our mission is to find a way to get them, especially the Wooden Restraint Seal, then bring them back to the First Heaven Society’s seal artists to do some research.”

“Let’s come back tomorrow.”

The two First Heaven Society Saints exchanged a few words before leaving empty-handed.

That whole afternoon, Ye Mo cultivated ten Wooden Restraint Seals in one go. While he did fail a few times during the process, toward the end, Ye Mo’s techniques became more matured. His Heart also started to cultivate during the seal-creating process.

“Perhaps I’ll be able to make the breakthrough to the Third Tier after I cultivate 24 more Level Four Tier Nine seals.”

The Third Tier meant thirty times Heart Training and a spear light blade thirty times more powerful. Also, it was the level required for the fusion of the Heart and the Mountain and River Diagram.

As night fell, the five Saints arrived at Ye Mo’s residence, and Ye Mo handed the seals over.

One of them even performed the seal on the spot, testing the effects before they all left satisfied.

Seeing their satisfied smiles, Ye Mo knew that his first business transaction was a great success. All he had to do now was to wait for them to recommend more customers, which would allow him to cultivate his Heart further.
