The Strongest Skill System

"You, Xu Changqing, are truly a chivalrous person, much stronger than those rotten old men from Shu Mountain."    

Then he looked at Zixuan, an indescribable smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.    

As the saying went, a husband should follow his wife. Since Xu Changqing had already expressed his intentions to go to Buzhou Mountain, he didn't believe that Zixuan wouldn't go.    

As expected, Zixuan laughed coldly, "Actually, what I hate the most are these so-called Gods, including Candle Dragon!"    

"These so-called gods, when humans are in danger, they will never lend a helping hand!"    

"I, Zixuan, am not afraid of the so-called gods. Even if I have to fight and blink with this Candle Dragon, I will still assist you in acquiring the Wood Spirit Bead!"    

It could be said that not only did Zixuan agree to go, she was also prepared to fight.    

After listening to Zixuan's words, Xu Changqing slightly frowned, but did not say anything.    

Now, only Tang Xuejian remained silent.    

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she said nervously, "Me."    

Jing Tian interrupted her sentence with a smile: "What about me, you are the big miss of Taang Family, it's better for you to hurry back to Taang Family Castle to be your big miss!"    

"This trip to Buzhou Mountain is extremely dangerous. I'm afraid that you will be frightened."    

"You, truly detestable!"    

Tang Xuejian was so angry that she wanted to kick Jing Tian, but the cunning Jing Tian quickly ran away and hid behind Ye Mo.    

Seeing Jing Tian hiding behind Ye Mo, Tang Xuejian didn't chase after him.    

She lowered her head, and rubbed her feet with her small hands: "I was indeed the great miss of Taang Family in the past, and Grandfather even treated me as the pearl of his palm, this made me a little headstrong, and perhaps even unruly."    

"However, after my grandfather died, the Taang Family was unable to contain me."    

"I choose to follow Elder Brother Ye and travel to the north."    

"Now, a few months have passed and I, Tang Xuejian, have matured a lot."    

"This lets me know, training with Elder Brother Ye can help me keep growing."    

"Now that the very important Wood Spirit Bead is in the hands of the Candle Dragon, of course I want it back with everyone."    

"If you don't want to come back, then let's work together and snatch it back!"    

After she finished speaking, her cheeks slightly blushed: "I also believe that Jing Tian is a predestined candidate. He will definitely be able to defeat Evil Sword Immortal."    

When she said that, Jing Tian couldn't laugh anymore.    

He had expected Tang Xuejian to mock him, but now she didn't.    

This made him somewhat unable to adapt to the current situation, and he felt that the current Tang Xuejian was a little strange.    

However, deep down in his heart, he was hoping that Tang Xuejian would go with everyone. After all, they had been together for so long.    

If Tang Xuejian had left, he would have felt an innermost emptiness.    

The reason he said those words to make Tang Xuejian return to Taang Family Castle was to provoke Tang Xuejian with negative words.    

"Hehe, Sister Xuejian, it's great that you didn't leave. We can be together again."    

Seeing this, Loong Kui held Tang Xuejian's hand.    

Right now, the two of them were inseparable, and their relationship was even better than that of best friends.    

"Good, very good."    

Ye Mo was very pleased with this.    

"Since everyone has chosen to head over to Buzhou Mountain to look for Candle Dragon, then let's set off immediately!"    

"Alright!"    

Zixuan smiled as she took out her flute and blew on it. The Hunchbacked Bird that she was familiar with flew back.    

It carried Ye Mo's group of seven and flew to the far west.    

The Buzhou Mountain was located to the far west, over five thousand kilometers away from here.    

No matter how fast the Hunchbacked Bird flew, it would need at least half a month.    

If a person were to walk, it would take them at least a year of travel to reach there. Furthermore, there would be many difficulties and dangers along the way.    

However, even if there was a Hunchbacked Bird on this trip to the Buzhou Mountain, it would not be that easy!    

After flying for half a month, the Hunchback Bird was still more than three hundred kilometers away from the Buzhou Mountain.    

However, the Hunchbacked Bird refused to fly forward no matter what and chose to land on the ground.    

Jumping down from the bird's back, Jing Tian had a depressed look: "We can already see the Buzhou Mountain from far away, why isn't the silly bird flying forward anymore?"    

Zixuan explained with a smile, "The Candle Dragon has yet to release their dragon's might, but even so, the Hunchbacked Bird doesn't dare to fly forward."    

"If the Candle Dragon were to release its dragon's might, the Hunchback Bird would be so scared that it would tremble a thousand miles away, and then fall onto the ground."    

Suddenly, Tang Xuejian pointed to the front. "I saw a few figures just now, but they disappeared very quickly. Are my eyes playing tricks on me?"    

At this moment, everyone realized that the environment around them was a bit strange. The surroundings were very eerie, and strange sounds of singing could be heard from time to time.    

Ye Mo took out the map, his expression changing slightly: "Everyone be careful, this is the only way to enter Buzhou Mountain, this is called the Road to River Styx!"    

The Road to River Styx! Everyone's heart sank.    

From the ground, this place was extremely terrifying.    

Maomao was so scared that his face turned pale, "This place, could it be the entrance to the Underworld?"    

Ye Mo shook his head. "The Road to River Styx does not lead to the Underworld, but to the Buzhou Mountain."    

"It is said that the Buzhou Mountain is a great mountain that supports the heavens and the earth. If the Buzhou Mountain collapses, the world would be destroyed as well."    

"Actually, it's good that you guys don't have to worry. Even if God dares to stop us, we will kill him anyway. No matter what happens on this insignificant Road to River Styx, we won't be afraid!"    

Ye Mo's words made everyone's hearts tremble. Killing even gods? What overbearing words!    

This made them reevaluate Ye Mo. What exactly was the reason for Ye Mo to say such words?    

At that moment, a few skeletons suddenly charged forward!    

These skeletons were emitting an unpleasant sound of laughter, and in their hands were various types of weapons!    

"Kill them!"    

With Ye Mo's order, everyone rushed forward.    

If it was a normal day, Tang Xuejian, Jing Tian, and Maomao would have been scared to death. However, along the way, they had seen too many monsters and monsters, so a few skeletons were nothing.    

These skeletons had average fighting strength and were quickly killed.    

"And a few poor bastards!"    

These skeletons only dropped a few worthless items, which made Jing Tian start cursing.    

However, Ye Mo had a surprising harvest. These skeletons gave a lot of experience. The highest gave 120 thousand experience.    

From this, one could see that the drop rate of the monsters on the Road to River Styx was extremely shocking, and the amount of experience they could gain was astonishing!    

Ye Mo suddenly remembered the Sword Saint's words, he was far from being a match for the Candle Dragon.    

The level of the Sword Saint's soul was at level 50.    

Luckily, Ye Mo had only exchanged pointers with him. If the Sword Saint's soul became a horde leader level boss, Ye Mo's group would have a fight with him.    

The Sword Saint's soul would be a very difficult bone to chew.    

From this, it could be seen that the Candle Dragon's level was the highest, and their fighting strength would be even stronger.    

If one encountered a Candle Dragon, it would be best if they could get their hands on it. If they couldn't get their hands on the Wood Spirit Bead, a fierce battle would definitely occur.    

Whether it was him, Jing Tian, Maomao, Tang Xuejian, or Loong Kui, they all had to upgrade their equipment and level.    

Including Zixuan and Xu Changqing, everyone had to be level 50 and above.    

Even a level 50 was only the lowest level. The higher the level, the better.    

Thinking of this, Ye Mo pondered for a moment: "This place is suitable for everyone to train and train. Candle Dragon are more difficult to deal with, how about everyone train on the Road to River Styx first?"    

No one had any objections to Ye Mo's suggestion.    

However, Xu Changqing raised a small point of view.    

"Along the way, everyone worked together to kill demons. It can be said that the team's cohesiveness and battle experience increased by a lot."    

"However, everyone still lacks experience in individual combat. Although this Road to River Styx is scary, it is a very good place to train."    

"I suggest that everyone spread out and gather together after a while."    

With regards to Xu Changqing's suggestion, Ye Mo's captain immediately agreed: "Xu Changqing is right."    

"I think we should all go train separately and gather at this place in three days."    

"Alright, I agree."    

"No problem."    

"Although I'm a bit nervous, I'm still looking forward to it."    

"Although I have to be separated from Brother Wang for a while, but Loong Kui will be stronger."    

Soon after, everyone dispersed and began cultivating.    

Actually, Ye Mo did not mention one thing. The reason why he agreed with Xu Changqing's point of view was that seven people were gathered together. The killing efficiency was slow and the experience shared was also very little.    

If one person killed an enemy, the level would increase even faster.    

On the Road to River Styx, there were not only moving skeletons, but demons as well!    

And these evil spirits have all become Ye Mo's experience points.    

Ye Mo had never fought as hard as he did today.    

Three days quickly passed by. Ye Mo had already reached level 57. It could be said that he had leveled up quite a lot.    

Other than eating and cultivating for a short period of time, Ye Mo did not stop killing enemies during these three days.    

The power of the seven people was very terrifying, and the number of demons and demons killed here was almost half of what it used to be.    

Three days later, Ye Mo's group of seven gathered at a separate location.    

Three days was very short, but everyone had changed a lot, especially Maomao, Tang Xuejian, and Loong Kui. All of their weapons and equipment had been replaced with even more powerful ones.    

After all, even though the drop rate for the equipment on Road to River Styx was low, once dropped, it would often be of the highest quality.    

Ye Mo looked at Zixuan's Level 59. Xu Changqing was also Level 57 and Loong Kui was Level 56.    

Tang Xuejian 54, Jing Tian 54, Maomao 53.    

Their leveling was all within Ye Mo's expectations, which also proved that they weren't slacking off.    

Zixuan had the highest level of cultivation. Other than the fact that she was at the same level as Zixuan, there was another reason. She was the descendant of Nuwa, and both her attributes and experience were much higher than mortals.    

At the beginning, Xu Changqing's level was also very high. With the Shu Mountain technique, he could restrain evil beings to help him kill enemies faster and gain more experience.    

Loong Kui was a ranged archer, so she dealt high damage and could quickly kill enemies.    

Tang Xuejian and Jing Tian, who looked like enemies with the same level, could be considered to be of a normal level.    

Maomao's low level wasn't because he was lazy, but it was because of his class.    

The movements of Shield Warriors were slow and clumsy. Naturally, their killing efficiency couldn't match that of other classes.    

On the whole, Ye Mo was very satisfied with everyone's growth.    

Ye Mo nodded, "Everyone has been training very well these three days."    

"From now on, we will go to the Buzhou Mountain and look for the Candle Dragon s to obtain them!"    

After that, Ye Mo and his group passed through the long Road to River Styx and finally arrived at Buzhou Mountain.    

Buzhou Mountain was an extremely steep mountain, with a height of 108,000 meters.    

There were restrictions on the Buzhou Mountain to prevent one from flying, and one had to climb to the peak with difficulty.    

Ye Mo discovered that there weren't any monsters in Buzhou Mountain. It was just that this mountain was rather hard to climb and required a lot of energy to climb.    

After struggling to climb up to 50,000 meters, Ye Mo found that it was not only his physical strength that was being consumed, even his mana was beginning to be depleted.    

Everyone's face had a different degree of paleness to it.    

Luckily, Ye Mo had concocted a large number of Spirit Concentrating Pills for everyone to consume. Otherwise, there was a real possibility of Ye Mo losing both his physical and Fa Li.    

After a difficult climb, Ye Mo's group of seven finally reached the top of Buzhou Mountain.    

The peak of the Buzhou Mountain was very large, but what was unexpected was that the peak was extremely flat, as if it was a pillar that was holding up the heavens.    

Not far away, there was a huge cave abode. On the cave abode, two golden words were carved: Candle Dragon Cave!    

Sure enough, Candle Dragon lived here.    

However, it was unknown whether or not the Candle Dragon was in its cave.    

Ye Mo and the others also wouldn't go into the cave to investigate. This kind of behavior was too dangerous.    

Ye Mo simply stood not far from the cave and cupped his hands: "Is Senior Candle Dragon here?"    

The cave was quiet, not a single sound could be heard.    

Ye Mo continued: "Senior Candle Dragon, we have come here with great difficulty and at the risk of our lives, because we have a request."    

"This is the Wood Spirit Bead that Senior obtained from the Sword Saint's Soul."    

"Of course, we are only borrowing the Wood Spirit Bead. After borrowing it, we will return it immediately."    

"We need to gather all five types of Spiritual Beads before we can find Evil Sword Immortal and defeat him!"    

"I hope that for the sake of all the lives in the world, Senior Candle Dragon will lend it to us."    

Needless to say, Ye Mo was very good at speaking. First, he said that the few of them came here at the risk of their lives. You should lend it to them, or else it won't be as simple as being stingy.    

Then, he said that the Candle Dragon had obtained it from the Sword Saint's Soul. Of course, it could not be said that it had been stolen, as it would provoke the Candle Dragon into doing the opposite.    

The meaning of those words were, this Wood Spirit Bead is not yours, you also stole it from the body and soul.    

Finally, he used the banner of the common people to suppress the Candle Dragon.    

It had to be said that Ye Mo's words had some effect, at least there was movement inside!    

Aooo!    

A resonant dragon roar could be heard from within the cave as it began to spread in all directions, causing the surrounding air to distort.    

Soon after, a huge golden-red dragon head peeked out. Two pairs of dragon eyes were like powerful searchlights, making Ye Mo and the other three unable to open their eyes.    

Soon after, the Candle Dragon rushed up, revealing a large portion of its body!    

Even if the tail was still hidden in the cave, the Candle Dragon's exposed body was at least a few hundred meters wide.    

Its scales were fiery red, and its belly was dark gold!    

The most shocking thing was that it had five claws!    

Five-Clawed Dragons were almost the most elite of the dragon race.    

Roar!    

The Candle Dragon roared, then looked Ye Mo straight in the eye: "Damned intruders, to actually dare trespass into this sovereign's territory, this sovereign will not let you go!"    

Following that, Ye Mo heard a sound that sounded like a system alert: "Host note that Candle Dragon possesses a portion of the Immortal Sword World's origin consciousness, and is one of the guardians of the Immortal Sword World order.    

The Candle Dragon had already discovered that the host was not someone from the Immortal Sword World.    

The host's strength had been restricted by 50%, and the Candle Dragon had already developed killing intent towards the host!    

How could this be? After hearing the system's warning, Ye Mo's expression changed. His identity had been seen through. This was something he never expected.    

He quickly checked his stats. As expected, all his stats had been reduced by 50%. It could be said that his strength had been greatly reduced.    

Zixuan did not quite understand as she berated the Candle Dragon furiously, "What nonsense are you spouting?! We are here to borrow the Wood Spirit Bead!"
