Chapter 1668: Chapter 1669: Five Elements Vine

"Ye Mo, you’ve arrived!"

As soon as Ye Mo reached the Hall of Five Elements, Chong Ge approached him. The hall was only open for a month each year and was quite deserted now.

"Elder Haibo Ling called me here. What’s going on?"

Ye Mo asked curiously.

"I don’t know what’s going on either. Elder Haibo Ling asked me to inform two people: one is you, and the other is an old acquaintance of yours."

Chong Ge said casually.

"An acquaintance?"

Ye Mo had just spoken when a familiar fragrance reached his nose. Ling Shan, clad in a black dress, descended from the sky.

"Now that all three of you are here, come inside!"

An old voice emanated from within the Hall of Five Elements, indicating for the three to enter.

The three of them did not hesitate and entered the Hall of Five Elements.

"Come to the eighth level of the Hall of Five Elements to find me."

"Eighth level?"

Ye Mo and Ling Shan were equally astonished. Wasn’t the Hall of Five Elements only seven levels? Where did this eighth level come from?

"Ye Mo, in the Hall of Five Elements, the first seven levels are open to new students for them to comprehend the Five Elements Laws. The eighth level is a space Elder Haibo Ling opened. Without a certain level of strength, you can’t enter the eighth level."

Chong Ge smiled slightly, and in the ring-shaped open hall, three wooden tendrils descended from above, shining with fluctuations of the Five Elements Laws.

"These are the Five Elements Vine!"

Ye Mo looked at the vines, and his eyes gently flickered.

"Correct, climbing this vine will allow you to reach the eighth level of the Hall of Five Elements!"

Chong Ge spoke and wasted no time, grabbing a vine with a powerful hand.

Ye Mo also immediately climbed onto the Five Elements Vine, but his arm suddenly slipped, and he failed to grip the vine. After a moment of thought, Ye Mo activated the Five Elements Law, using its power to tightly grasp the vine and climb upwards step by step.

Furthermore, if the Five Elements Law isn’t controlled properly, one would slip directly from the vine and even fall from the air. Climbing this Five Elements Vine is a significant test of one’s grasp of the Five Elements Law.

"This Ye Mo is indeed worthy of being the genius who defeated Qiuu Tianyue, mastering the knack of climbing the Five Elements Vine so quickly."

Chong Ge watched as Ye Mo quickly approached him, genuinely amazed.

To Ye Mo’s surprise, Ling Shan was also able to climb the Five Elements Vine. Although her pace was slow, it proved that she had worked hard lately, having comprehended the five laws, and was just one step away from advancing.

Ye Mo continued climbing, and upon reaching the top of the Hall of Five Elements, he discovered circles of white ripples. The Five Elements Vine stretched from these ripples.

"Ye Mo, don’t hesitate, just keep climbing. Upon crossing that boundary junction, you’ll face a tremendous pulling force. You must increase your climbing speed, or else this force will tear you down."

Chong Ge gave a reminder, increased his speed, and rushed towards the boundary junction, disappearing within the white ripples.

Ye Mo prepared to rush up but saw Ling Shan struggling on another vine and couldn’t help asking, "How are you? Do you need help?"

"No, I can make it up!"

Sweat was already dripping down Ling Shan’s forehead. She had just mastered the Five Elements Law, making climbing the Five Elements Vine quite a challenge. Furthermore, reaching the eighth level required crossing the boundary junction, making it even tougher.

However, wanting to show off in front of her beloved, she stubbornly insisted, though she wished Ye Mo would pull her up.

"If that’s the case, I’ll go up first."

Ye Mo said, accelerated his speed, and submerged into the white ripples, feeling a massive pulling force. Without his initial speed increase, it would have been exceedingly difficult to overcome this restraint.

"He just won’t wait for me."

Seeing Ye Mo vanish within the white ripples, Ling Shan lamented in her heart, slowly climbing up and, seeing the white ripples overhead, suddenly charged forward.

However, a strong pulling force immediately taxed her body, causing her whole body to soften, and her hands released the vine involuntarily.

Ling Shan’s face turned deathly pale, and just as she was about to fall, she felt her wrist grabbed by a large hand.

"Knowing you can’t, yet you still show off."

Ye Mo smiled helplessly and pulled Ling Shan up.

Though it sounded like a rebuke, to Ling Shan, it was as sweet as honey.

The two continued climbing.

They soon noticed another large hall before them, also the Hall of Five Elements.

"This is the eighth level of the Hall of Five Elements."

Chong Ge’s voice reached their ears, and the three of them leaped forward, transforming into three streams of light that landed in front of the palace. The palace doors were open, and the three entered directly.

Haibo Ling stood with his hands behind his back, smiling as Ye Mo and the others approached.

"Greetings, Elder Haibo Ling!"

All three bowed together.

"I didn’t expect all three of you to reach the eighth level of the Hall of Five Elements."

Haibo Ling also smiled faintly.

"Why did you call us here, Elder Haibo Ling?"

Not wanting any riddles, Ye Mo asked directly.

"Very few people have managed to enter the eighth level of the Hall of Five Elements, a palace constructed with Five Elements Stones that took me ten thousand years. Its purpose was to open the connection with the Five Elements Mountain again. Recently, the transmission path to the Five Elements Mountain has reopened, suggesting that the curse from ten thousand years ago is starting to manifest."

At this, Haibo Ling’s expression suddenly became much more solemn.

"Five Elements Mountain?"

Hearing this, Ye Mo’s heart stirred. Back when he was in the Realm of Death, he had used the Five Elements Door to summon powerful apes, and those apes were called from the Five Elements Mountain.

"The demon monkeys caused chaos, leading Xuantian to issue a Heavenly Edict and seal the entire Five Elements Mountain, even suppressing the demon monkeys. Now that the transmission path to the Five Fingers Mountain has reopened, it’s probable the seal has loosened, likely due to a dangerous weapon emerging."

Haibo Ling said flatly, "That dangerous weapon is the Sky-Pillar of Primordial Chaos used by the demon monkeys to wreak havoc in the past."

"This Sky-Pillar of Primordial Chaos, even now, might have a Heaven Rank grade. No matter what, on your journey to the Five Elements Mountain, you must reseal the Sky-Pillar of Primordial Chaos. Otherwise, the emergence of the demon monkeys will be a disaster for both the Ninth Realm and the Xuantian above it."

"Elder Haibo Ling, why choose us to go to the Five Elements Mountain? Shouldn’t you send more powerful students?"

Ye Mo couldn’t help but ask.

"The current seal is only slightly breached. Martial artists of the Immortal Class Realm are best suited to enter. If the breach enlarges, the Sky-Pillar of Primordial Chaos might fully emerge, breaking the demon beast seal. Hence Xuantian issued a decree to all academies in the Ninth Realm to prevent the demon monkeys from breaking free."

Haibo Ling’s expression was extremely solemn.
