“He’s here …”
In the formation, Lin Mo opened his eyes. It was easy for him to refine the power of the curse in the spirit stones.
Once the God Devouring Body’s devouring power was used, the curse completely disappeared.
No matter how strong the curse was, it would be useless if it could not invade the body of a living being.
Lin Mo put away the spirit stones and adjusted his breathing to prepare for the upcoming battle.
Mu Yuzhu still had not arrived. It seemed that the condition he had offered was not enough to move her.
“It’ll be a little troublesome if I’m alone. I hope there’s no time limit for the mission.”
Lin Mo muttered to himself. In the next moment, the surrounding magic formation was broken, and the black-robed Te Mu arrived.
Te Mu was alone, but when he saw that Lin Mo’s face was ruddy and that he was not injured, he could not help but be shocked.
“You’re fine?” Te Mu exclaimed.
“You’re finally here. Trying to trick me with tampered spirit stones? Aren’t you underestimating me?” Lin Mo chuckled.
“As expected of the God Devouring Body. Looks like I’ll have to waste some more of my techniques.”
Te Mu was not stingy with his praise. There was a hint of envy in his eyes. The God Devouring Body was such a heaven-defying physique. Why did he not have it?
“Whoosh!”
The sound of flowing water could be heard as Lin Mo opened the Mountain River Scroll. Surging river water within it was released.
A mountain appeared under the influence of spiritual Qi. Lin Mo sent a wisp of the Vermilion Bird Divine Flame into it.
In an instant, the mountain turned into a meteorite with a terrifying power that seemed to be able to crush mountains and rivers and annihilate everything.
“Petty tricks.”
Te Mu sneered and raised his hand to take out a dark red saber.
Under the power of the big saber, the meteorite instantly exploded, and some of the flames that escaped did not hurt him at all.
“Blood Saber Technique, Wild Saber Dance.”
Te Mu bellowed, planning to end the battle quickly and kill Lin Mo as soon as possible.
He was a Ruler, but he was not arrogant and even used martial arts. Lin Mo found it difficult to deal with him.
“Kun Peng Claws!”
Lin Mo seized the opportunity and turned his claws into Kun Peng claws, grabbing the blood saber.
The sharp blade cut Lin Mo’s palm, sending sparks flying. In just a few breaths, Lin Mo’s palm was bleeding.
This was a half-step heaven-grade weapon. In the hands of a Ruler, it could display even more power.
Lin Mo was caught in a bitter battle. He had underestimated the strength of a Ruler. Such a powerhouse was too powerful.
This was not something he could deal with. The other party’s martial arts were so overbearing that he could not block it even if he used the Qilin Step.
“I was too careless. When I escaped from the hands of the demonic beast Ruler in the past, I thought that other living beings would be similar…”
Lin Mo mumbled. Although the demonic beasts in the mountain range were powerful, only those with powerful bloodlines could transform into human form or speak the human language, possessing extremely high intelligence.
In the past, he had escaped from demonic beast Rulers many times and even snatched their elixirs, making him think he could deal with even normal Rulers.
It seemed that he could not do that now. He lacked stronger attacking methods and needed more trump cards.
“If only I knew the Mismatched Yin Yang now.”
Lin Mo sighed. The auction rebate of the Kun Peng Wings was the Kun Peng’s powerful killing move.
It was a pity that it was too profound, so he could not understand it in a short time.
“We can only retreat for now. We’ll find another opportunity to deal with him.” After much thought, Lin Mo decided that he could not take the risk.
Although wealth was obtained from danger, most of the time there would be more losses than gains.
Even though the complete version of the Qilin Step was very tempting, Lin Mo had to act within his means.
“I’ve remembered your aura. The next time we meet will be the day you die.” Lin Mo looked at Te Mu and put away the Mountain River Scroll.
“You want to leave?” Te Mu asked coldly.
He would not let Lin Mo off so easily. Furthermore, his Soul-devouring Bag was still with Lin Mo.
That was the key to his swindling journey, and he could not give up.
“Brother Lin, now you know how hard it is to kill a Ruler, right?”
Just as Lin Mo was about to leave, a soft sigh was heard from the space.
Mu Yuzhu and her maidservant, Su Qing, slowly walked out of a spatial passageway.
Su Qing was holding a green jade formation board in her hand, which exuded a mysterious aura.
“Mu Yuzhu.”
When Te Mu saw the two people who had appeared, he could not help but be shocked. ‘Didn’t they say that Mu Yuzhu and Lin Mo have no relationship?
‘But why are they here? They even set up an ambush for me…’
“I thought you wouldn’t come …”
Seeing Mu Yuzhu arrive, Lin Mo finally heaved a sigh of relief. With this person joining him, killing Te Mu should not be a problem.
“Crack!”
Not far away, when Te Mu saw Mu Yuzhu, he started to gather his strength. A talisman appeared in his hand, and he instantly crushed it.
His figure also disappeared along with the fluctuations of the talisman, escaping into the void.
“Ah!”
However, in the next moment, the formation board in Su Qing’s hand lit up. The green light grew even more intense, and Te Mu, who had tried to escape into space, was devoured by the backlash.
As soon as he left the dimension, he coughed out a mouthful of blood and looked at the formation board in Su Qing’s hand with unwillingness.
“Mu Yuzhu, I have no enmity with you. Why are you doing this?” Te Mu was really a little scared.
He had to go all out to suppress Lin Mo. If Mu Yuzhu, who was even more powerful, was involved, he would definitely die.
“I was just paid to do this.”
Mu Yuzhu shook her head. Roadside robbery and such were common in this world.
If one was not powerful enough, one might just turn from robbing to being robbed in an instant.
Seeing that his communication was fruitless, Te Mu made up his mind and slashed his blood-red long saber toward Mu Yuzhu.
Upon seeing this, Lin Mo also hurriedly made his move, temporarily joining forces with Mu Yuzhu to suppress Te Mu.
The battle was very intense. Te Mu was indeed a Ruler. He was not afraid in the slightest when facing the attacks of two great prodigies.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side.
Mu Yuzhu’s trump card shocked Lin Mo. She had many talismans on her, and she even took out two heaven-grade magic tools.
In addition to the costly formation board in Su Qing’s hand, it was hard to imagine how terrifying the Mu family’s foundation was…
In order to prevent Te Mu from retaliating before his death, Lin Mo and Mu Yuzhu were extremely cautious.
The intense battle lasted for half an hour. Te Mu was extremely unwilling to give up. He wanted to self-destruct, but Lin Mo used the Kun Peng claws to tear his head apart, and his soul was destroyed.
“He was truly difficult to deal with…” Lin Mo heaved a sigh of relief.
The half an hour of fighting had allowed him to truly experience the strength of such a powerhouse.
“This is the Golden Divine Fruit I promised you.”
After taking out all the treasures on Te Mu’s body, Lin Mo also took out a divine fruit that was as brilliant as the sun.
“Hehe, I’ll take these three. I look forward to our next cooperation.”
Mu Yuzhu did not touch Te Mu’s other treasures. Instead, she accepted the Golden Divine Fruit, the Kun Peng Wings, and the Qilin Step as Lin Mo had promised.
However, they were also the most precious of all the treasures.
This made Mu Yuzhu curious. What was Lin Mo’s motive for killing Te Mu?
Was he trying to hide something?
As she thought of this, she looked at Lin Mo, but she could not tell anything from his expression…
[Congratulations on completing the mission. You received the auction rebate of the Qilin Step.]
