Blinding light burst forth, and terrifying waves of spiritual energy were unleashed. The man was caught in the burst of energy in point-blank range.
The old man shouted and exerted every ounce of his strength to resist it.
However, no matter how much he struggled, the immense amount of energy emitted from the talisman was starting to overwhelm him.
The power of a tier 9 offensive talisman was extremely terrifying. There were all sorts of powerful runes inscribed into them, making them extremely deadly weapons.
Before the talisman’s first wave of spiritual energy had receded, another powerful storm of spiritual energy erupted, dealing a second wave of damage onto the elder.
“B*stards! Damned brats, how dare you set up an ambush!” The old man was so angry that his entire body was trembling with rage. He had managed to withstand the full extent of the talisman’s attack with great difficulty, but it had left him with grievous wounds. His entire body was covered in blood.
He had been careless, and just as he was about to explode in rage, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Pfft.”
The old man mentally cursed at Lin Mo and his party. Little did he know, however, that the talisman’s explosion was not the full extent of the ambush.
The Origin Spirit Puppet leaped out and sliced off the old man’s head.
The energy of the Absolute Snow Sword had dispersed even the old man’s soul, turning his body into ashes and making him disappear without a trace.
Lin Mo and his party celebrated in their hiding spot. They exchanged glances at one another and rejoiced.
“Alright, things are going smooth so far. I’ll go and collect our spoils for now. Once that’s done, we’ll clean up the rest of our enemies.” Lin Mo smiled as he approached the spot where the elder had died.
It was somewhat regretful that the elder’s spatial ring had been destroyed from the talisman’s explosion.
As a result of its destruction, the treasures that it had contained were also gone for good. Lin Mo felt that it was a pity that he could not preserve them.
Alas, that just goes to show just how powerful the talisman was. Heck, even the Origin Soul Puppet had sustained damage from the blasts.
Despite being shielded by a spirit formation for the most part, it had still come quite close to being destroyed.
“It’s all good. The Origin Spirit Puppet has powerful recovery abilities. Do you still have any spiritual stones on you?” Bai Luo shot Lin Mo a sidelong glance.
“Ahem… About that, could you lend me some…” Lin Mo coughed dryly. He no longer had any spiritual stones on him.
He had basically used everything that he had to cultivate, and he was now completely broke.
“You’re really…”
Bai Luo rolled her eyes, threw out a high-grade spiritual stone, and placed it into the Origin Soul Puppet’s dantian.
Although Bai Luo had gained tremendous benefits from teaming up with Lin Mo, as shown by her rapid growth, sometimes, she felt that Lin Mo was leeching off her. She could not remember just how much spiritual stones she had spent on him…
“Hehe, many thanks.” Lin Mo scratched his head and thanked Bai Luo. With her aid, the Origin Spirit Puppet would eventually recover from the damage inflicted upon it.
After picking up the elder’s head, Lin Mo led his party away from the area.
As they traversed through the forest, they experienced a few close calls where they had almost exposed themselves to the other elders from the Primordial Sun Holy Land.
“Damn it, so they were using these guys to track us,” Bai Luo stated.
After the few close calls they experienced, the party decided to beef up their security, and they soon realized that it was the demonic beasts within the forest that had exposed their positions.
The folks from the Primordial Sun Holy Land had captured and tamed demonic beasts, spirit birds, and even spirit insects. These were the creatures that they had unleashed to track Lin Mo and his party down.
Jiang Xiyue had requested Lin Mo to eliminate Yuan Cang since he was under the seventh prince’s payroll.
It was likely that the seventh prince had also given the same order to Yuan Cang to kill Lin Mo.
However, Lin Mo was now in a passive position. There were many elders within the Primordial Sun Holy Land’s ranks, and they were all very strong.
With those elders around, Lin Mo had found it rather difficult to kill Yuan Cang.
However, if he could not manage to kill Yuan Cang within the ruins, by the time Yuan Cang returned home, Lin Mo would have lost his chance to complete Jiang Xiyue’s request.
“No, I must think of a way.”
Lin Mo was not going to give up. Although Jiang Xiyue would likely make no comments on his failure, Qing Wen, Qing Wu, and Qianqian, who were already hostile towards him to begin with, would definitely look down on him.
“Don’t worry, there will be more opportunities to come. Don’t be hasty,” Bai Luo advised. The Ancient Flame Sect’s inheritance had yet to appear, and thus, anything was still in the realm of possibility.
They could not make a move now. Although the fourth elder was dead, there was still one other elder leading the team.
They were the fifth elder of the Yuan Yang Holy Land. Although he was ranked fifth, he was at tier 31 of the Dragon Transformation Realm.
With such an existence as an obstacle, Lin Mo and his party had to act cautiously.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a four-horned lizard crawled out from behind them. Upon spotting Lin Mo, it immediately roared loudly.
“Damn you.”
Lin Mo was furious and cut down the lizard in a single strike.
However, that did nothing to change the fact that his position was compromised. The lizard’s roar hadalerted the people from the Primordial Sun Holy Land, and Lin Mo could feel a terrifying aura coming off from a distance.
Three individuals were going after them, and each of them was at tier 27 of the Dragon Transformation Realm. Upon discovering Lin Mo, they immediately went after him without a moment’s hesitation.
“Run!”
Bai Luo took the opportunity to pick up Lin Die and sprinted forward. She activated Traceless Wind and went off into the distance.
Seeing this, Lin Mo did not waste any time as well. After grabbing onto Yan Rong’s shoulder, he then activated Traceless Wind and shot forward as well.
“Boom!”
The forest was in an uproar. Several experts were bombarding the area in search of Lin Mo.
Even Yuan Cang had arrived. He had pursued Lin Mo together with an elder that emanated a dense and terrifying aura.
At this moment, a nine-colored light shot up from the center of the forest. It was extremely dense.
Everyone could see that this aura was heaven-piercing and earth-shattering. It flickered within the Dragon Transformation Pool’s alternate dimension.
“The heirloom has appeared. This is great!”
Everyone cried out in surprise. The heirloom that they had been searching long and hard for had finally appeared.
Lin Mo and the others also quickly rushed over to the source of the light. Behind them were the pursuers from the Primordial Sun Holy Land.
A huge pit had appeared in the middle of the forest. The ground sank down, revealing its contents.
At the same time, a shocking aura emanated from it. Multicolored light spread out, restricting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
“The Blood Qi here is dense. Is this the blood pool or a Nirvana pool?” Bai Luo was puzzled. Both were extremely rare resources.
The former could provide a large amount of life energy, possibly bringing one back from the dead, and cleansing their souls of impurities.
The latter, however, was even more heaven-defying. It would allow one to ascend to the Nirvana Realm.
Not everyone could reach the Nirvana Realm. There were natural limits to one’s cultivation abilities, and as such, those who could reach the Nirvana Realm were exceedingly rare.
If one could locate a Nirvana pool, they would be set for the rest of their lives.
Lin Mo and the others rushed over and met up with the Su family. Su Hanhai’s aura erupted, and he pushed back the fifth elder of the Yuan Yang Holy Land with a palm strike.
He was only one step away from reaching the Nirvana Realm. If he could enter the Nirvana pool or the blood pool, he would be able to break through.
The imperial family’s Elder Mo had also arrived. His clothes were stained with mud, as if he had just experienced a great battle. The people following behind him were also injured and looked slightly miserable.
Qianqian was also there. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth, but there was a smile on her face. It seemed that her gains were not bad.
Many others also arrived. The Mu family and Sima family from Ancient Flame City were also present.
The people from the Purple Moon Holy Land appeared not long after. Elder Qin Yu seemed extremely happy. She was the same as Su Hanhai. She was very eager to break through to the Nirvana Realm.
In addition, there were other experts who also came. They were the geniuses who had made a name for themselves in the Yanhuang Board of Fame, and they were also accompanied by their backers.
Aside from them, there were also many rogue cultivators who had assembled their own group of mercenaries.
Now that the critical moment was right in front of them, everyone was full of energy.
