Chapter 41: Nameless Sword Art, a bit sinister.
Lin Mo’s cruelty made everyone swallow hard.
They all saw clearly that the middle-aged man had already lost his life under Lin Mo’s initial sword moves.
But Lin Mo still chose to bombard the corpse with a series of sword qi.
This cruel method made Poison Eyebrow Old Man doubt who the Demonic Cultivator was.
“See? After defeating enemies in the future, to prevent them from faking death, you must do this with me,” Lin Mo taught by example.
Several Junior Sisters immediately stood at attention and said in unison, “Understood!”
They only realized then that their Senior Brother was indeed as cruel as the Sect legends said!
However, this was only towards enemies.
Along the way, he had been very good to them.
Xia He began to regret it again, remembering how she had provoked Lin Mo before, and felt a chill of fear.
She was truly fortunate that Lin Mo was her Senior Brother and not her enemy.
However, after witnessing Lin Mo’s actions, she loved him even more.
She was even more confused as to why Azure Spirit Sect spread the word that Lin Mo was the weakest Senior Disciple.
Being able to kill a Golden Core cultivator so easily with the Foundation establishment realm, no one in the entire Azure Spirit Sect should be able to do this, right?
“How is this possible, how is this possible?” Wang Sandun stared at the corpse of the middle-aged man, shaking his head frantically.
How could he accept such a reality? Was that sword really that powerful?
Poison Eyebrow Old Man and the Elder no longer looked at Lin Mo with disdain, but with a hint of solemnity.
“It seems that the boy’s strength doesn’t lie in his sword, but in his talent,” Poison Eyebrow Old Man deduced. “To display the aura of a Heaven-grade Cultivation Technique with the form of an Earth-grade one, he not only has the Heavenly Spirit Root, but also likely possesses a Sword Dao physique.”
The Elder beside Huai Chen said, “I heard that Spiritual Sword Sect has a heavenly prodigy sword cultivator, who also killed many Golden Core cultivators at the Foundation establishment stage. Furthermore, after breaking through to the Golden Core stage, she became almost invincible within the same realm, and could even stand her ground against many Nascent Soul cultivators.”
“She seems to have a special Sword Dao physique and also a mutated Heavenly Spirit Root.”
“With such talent, this child must be from one of the five great families of the Upper Realm, and likely from the main branch.” Saying this, the Elder said to Huai Chen, “Young Master, I suggest we retreat.”
Having witnessed Lin Mo’s strength, Huai Chen was extremely frightened.
He also had the intention to flee at this time.
Seeing this, Wang Sandun suddenly shouted, “Do you think you can escape?”
“He already knows your identities. Even if you run away now, won’t he seek revenge later?”
Lin Mo was surprised that Wang Sandun seemed to have become much smarter all of a sudden.
However, he didn’t plan to let these people go.
“The Wang family kid is right!” Poison Eyebrow Old Man said at this time, “What are you afraid of? Am I not still here?”
“As long as we kill this brat, the people from the five great families of the Upper Realm will not be able to find us.”
After guessing Lin Mo’s identity, he no longer intended to recruit him.
He didn’t have the courage to do so either. Who knew if leaving Lin Mo behind would allow the five great families of the Upper Realm to find him through special means.
Therefore, only by killing Lin Mo would it be the safest.
“Yes, yes, we can’t leave, and Senior Poison Eyebrow is still here!” Huai Chen realized that Poison Eyebrow Old Man was also a powerful figure who had killed Nascent Soul cultivators, and his strength was at the Nascent Soul level.
Even if Lin Mo could challenge those above his realm, could he challenge across two major realms?
Saying this, he instructed the Elder beside him to join forces with Poison Eyebrow Old Man to deal with Lin Mo later, ensuring no mistakes.
Seeing this, Wang Sandun breathed a sigh of relief.
If Huai Chen and Poison Eyebrow Old Man had chosen to leave, his life would have been forfeit.
“Brat, let me show you the saber technique with which I once killed a Nascent Soul cultivator.” Poison Eyebrow Old Man took out a blood-colored saber, exuding an extremely terrifying aura all over his body.
The Elder beside Huai Chen also raised his Spiritual Energy to its peak.
Lin Mo dared not slacken, concentrating his attention on the every move of the two in front of him.
Poison Eyebrow Old Man moved, and the blood-colored saber instantly appeared at the back of Lin Mo’s neck, preparing to take his head in one strike.
Lin Mo reacted extremely quickly, reversing his Liuli Sword, and after drawing a sword flower along the saber.
“Three Thousand Sword Art” was unleashed, and countless sword qi flew towards Poison Eyebrow Old Man.
Poison Eyebrow Old Man circulated his Spiritual Energy, and the blood-colored saber in his hand also swung out, and the crescent-shaped saber qi collided with the sword qi.
In the end, they canceled each other out.
The Elder beside Huai Chen, taking advantage of the opportunity, came behind Lin Mo, intending to sneak attack.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mo turned and stabbed at him with an extremely strange posture.
The Elder’s shoulder was cut with a deep gash.
This time, he failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice.
The Elder retreated repeatedly, using his Spiritual Energy to stabilize his injuries.
Lin Mo was also shocked, looking at the Liuli Sword in his hand.
The Liuli Sword’s voice sounded a bit proud, “It’s not that I wanted to save you, it’s just that I was afraid you’d be defeated, and this little Li would fall into the hands of these disgusting men.”
That’s right, it was the Liuli Sword that automatically protected its master just now.
Lin Mo was also surprised that a sword with a sword spirit could be so sentient.
The Liuli Sword then said, “If you want to thank me, then quickly send me back to my master, Shi Yao!”
Lin Mo communicated with the Liuli Sword in his heart, “Consider it a debt of gratitude, but returning the sword is impossible. After all, I won you. From now on, I won’t rely on you to reforge you!”
The Liuli Sword was greatly shocked, “You, you actually want to reforge little Li, you demon!!!”
Lin Mo said nothing more…
The situation was not optimistic.
His sword could indeed fight Poison Eyebrow Old Man to a temporary draw.
But he was, after all, a Foundation establishment cultivator. His Spiritual Energy was not as abundant as a Golden Core cultivator. Once his Spiritual Energy was exhausted, this battle would be lost.
Moreover, there was another Golden Core cultivator eyeing him.
There was no other way, at this point, he could only ask the System for help.
“System, is there a solution to this situation?”
[Respond to the host, you can draw pill-type prizes online, or strengthen your own Cultivation Technique.]
[You can always trust that spending money can make you stronger!]
Drawing prizes at this time?
Let’s forget it!
Lin Mo’s gaze locked onto “Nameless Sword Art.”
He had not used this Heaven-grade Cultivation Technique before.
Just in case, he spent fifteen thousand Regret points to upgrade Nameless Sword Art to the third level.
Fortunately, he had accumulated quite a lot of Regret points. After consuming fifteen thousand Regret points, he still had over forty thousand Regret points left.
[Congratulations to the host for upgrading Nameless Sword Art to the third level.]
The moment the System prompted, Lin Mo’s understanding of Nameless Sword Art improved.
Besides that, he saw something different.
It was Poison Eyebrow Old Man’s karma, the souls of those who had died by his saber.
As if guided by the sword art, he knew that as long as he killed Poison Eyebrow Old Man, he could obtain what he desired.
A trace of red light flashed in Lin Mo’s eyes…
The body of the Liuli Sword was enveloped by a blood-red True Qi, looking extremely sinister.
Poison Eyebrow Old Man’s heart trembled, and his intuition told him that he had to run.
The moment he turned around, a blood-red sword qi descended from the sky. That sword qi seemed to have a mouth, and began to devour Poison Eyebrow Old Man’s blood energy.
In just a moment, Poison Eyebrow Old Man withered into a mummified corpse at a speed visible to the naked eye.
