The Five Punishments Tower was originally known as the Five Elements Tower and was an energy refining tower.

The five elements covered all elements in existence. After entering the Five Elements Tower, if one could endure the punishment exerted by the tower, one’s energy would go through a qualitative change.

However, according to the research conducted by the elders, they found out that the power of lightning in this tower was too powerful. The tower was subsequently turned into a place of punishment.

“Do I have any other option?” Ye Mo smiled bitterly. Then, his eyes turned sharp.

“Brother Ye Mo, don’t be afraid. Ling’er is here. This Five Punishments Tower can’t be scarier than the Luosha Punishment, right? If not even the Luosha Punishment can do anything to you, what can this Five Punishments Tower do to you? As long as we survive this, freedom is within our grasp. After reaching Energy Shaping Eight Realm, the world is our oyster. We can cultivate anywhere we want and when the time comes, we will return and kill Ye Changsheng,” Ling’er said, trying to comfort Ye Mo.

“You’re right. Perhaps I can make use of this Five Punishments Tower to reach Energy Shaping Ninth Realm!” A trace of hope flickered in Ye Mo’s heart. Not even the Luosha Punishment could do anything to him. What could this Five Punishments Tower do?

Ye Mo spent the next three days trapped in the first level of the Five Punishments Tower. The elder league members were responsible for guarding him. According to what they said, Ye Mo would only start receiving the Five Elements Punishment after Xuan Ji gave the order.

However, according to the league members, League Chief Xuan Ji had spent the past few days regrowing Ye Changsheng’s arm and had no time to deal with other matters.

Even Ye Mo’s punishment was set aside. It was evident how concerned Xuan Ji was towards Ye Changsheng. Although Ling Xue and the others wanted to plea for leniency on Ye Mo’s behalf, they were only insignificant league members. Their pleas were completely useless.

As for Bing Bing and Leng Leng, their initial plan was to meet Ye Mo but since this happened, they could only worry helplessly and returned to their own places.

Seven days later, Qingyun League regained its peace.

Ye Mo, who had been trapped in the Five Punishments Tower, felt completely free. He spent all his time sitting cross-legged in cultivation. The elder league members would be delivering food to him on a strict schedule, which helped keep his state of mind even calmer.

This was a state of peace that was greatly helpful to the advancement of his cultivation heart. He was able to cultivate the Iceheart Technique smoothly so that when he entered the state of selflessness, he would be able to fight 10 opponents at once.

This was a breakthrough that Ye Mo had only reached after experiencing the Chief Elect selection process. Cultivation heart was something that might not improve despite a person’s comprehension skills. At times, one could only improve one’s cultivation heart after going through certain experiences.

Of course, this did not signify that Ye Mo had completely forgotten about the incident. If he could escape the Five Punishments Tower, he would definitely go look for Ye Changsheng again. Ye Changsheng was now a karmic hindrance in his path of cultivation. His mental state would only improve after slaying Ye Changsheng.

“Ye Mo, as your senior brother, I do admire you. You can still cultivate so calmly in a situation like this. Any other league member would be trembling in fear,” the elder league member responsible for guarding him said. He was able to see that the energy within Ye Mo was circulating steadily.

Evidently, Ye Mo’s mental state was unperturbed by this Five Punishments Tower.

Creak!

The door opened, allowing the ray of light from outside to shine into the room. A red silhouette slowly walked into the tower.

“Ye Mo, you never saw this coming, did you? Not only have my arm been regrown by Master Xuan Ji, my strength has increased as well. Soon, I will enter the True Energy Realm.” The newcomer was Ye Changsheng. The first thing he decided to do upon recovery was to come show off before Ye Mo.

“Oh, you’re still in the mood to cultivate?” Ye Changsheng entered the first level of the earth element and was astonished when he saw Ye Mo. “Have you reached the realization that fear will do you no help? I am here today to tell you that I am now a Chief Elect. Moreover, the news of me being the chief elect has already spread to Limestone City. I will be returning in full glory with Yan Zhi. As for the Xiao Clan, they will be my first target upon my return. With me on their side, the Ye Clan will never bow before another clan ever again.”

“Ye Changsheng!” Finally, Ye Mo erupted with anger. He howled and stood up. Fury covered his face as he spoke, “Don’t push it. You are already a Chief Elect. What is the point of making life difficult for the Xiao Clan?”

“Hmph. At Limestone City, there is no place for the Xiao Clan since Ye Clan is there,” Ye Changsheng sneered and continued, “Ye Mo, my Ye Clan will dominate Limestone City. To develop Limestone City into the number one city, we have to first destroy the Xiao Clan. Don’t blame me for being ruthless. Consider this your punishment for severing one of my arms.”

Ye Mo frowned deeply. He did not fear the Five Punishments Tower. But if he allowed the Xiao Clan to be destroyed, he would not be able to forgive himself.

“Why? Are you thinking of doing something to me?” Ye Changsheng laughed in disdain when he saw how angered Ye Mo was. He continued speaking, “The moment you attack, you will be killed by the elder league members. You might be strong, but do you think you can defeat the elder league members?”

“Ye Mo, please don’t force my hand,” said the elder league member standing to the side.

“Ye Changsheng, where did you get your Dimensional Bracelet from?” Suddenly, Ye Mo noticed the dimensional bracelet slipping down Ye Changsheng’s wrist and asked.

His dimensional bracelet had a golden phoenix embossed on it.

Ye Mo,I have a dimensional bracelet I wanted to give you. That dimensional bracelet was given to me by a woman who once loved me deeply. I have been carrying the dimensional bracelet all along. Perhaps she might help you when she sees the Dimensional Bracelet one day. Unfortunately, it has been stolen by a treacherous person. Ye Mo recalled what Ye Qing told him. He asked Ye Qing who the thief was all the time, but Ye Qing was adamant on not telling him anything.

Back then, Ye Mo was far too weak. It was understandable that Ye Qing had refused to tell him who it was. Ye Mo had spent five years taking care of Ye Qing. Therefore, he had naturally seen the Dimensional Bracelet Ye Qing spoke off. It was the same one that Ye Changsheng was wearing now.

Finally, the numerous thoughts in Ye Mo’s mind began to fall into place. The Xuan Ji mentioned by Elder Feng was not exactly Xuan Ji. Rather, it was Xuan Qiu. That was why Elder Feng had reminded Ye Mo to never admit that he was Ye Qing’s son before Xuan Ji.

Unknown to Elder Feng, Xuan Qiu had always been deeply in love with Ye Qing. Xuan Ji had also been in love with Ye Qing. But due to her aloof nature, she would not confess her love. Therefore, even when she saw the dimensional bracelet Ye Changsheng wore, she did not ask him anything.

She assumed that Ye Changsheng was Ye Qing’s son, and she did her best to nurture Ye Changsheng. And it was precisely because of Xuan Ji’s aloof nature that she misunderstood Ye Changsheng as Ye Qing’s son when Ye Mo was the actual son of Ye Qing.

Ye Mo was the one who she was supposed to nurture and cherish. But now, she had personally sent Ye Mo to the Five Punishments Tower.
