Chapter 373: Use All Your Trump Cards

However, he had miscalculated this time. The God Devouring Body was too extraordinary, allowing Lin Mo to start comprehending the Dao principles a long time ago.

Although it was still not comparable to the Nirvana Realm, it was still enough to resist him.

In addition, what he used was the archaic divine beast Vermilion Bird’s technique. Although it was incomplete, it was still one of the heaven grade martial arts.

“Chi!”

The Vermilion Bird Divine Flame formed the Vermilion Bird’s shadow. Numerous symbols flickered and blocked the opponent’s Dao flames.

The middle-aged man was shocked. Seeing that he couldn’t cause any harm to Lin Mo, he made up his mind. Divine light flickered on the folding fan, causing the entire space to tremble.

That folding fan was also a treasure. It was at the 9th tier of the spirit grade. A treasure of this rank wasn’t something that an unaffiliated cultivator could afford.

Therefore, there must be a large faction behind this person. However, it was unknown which faction it belonged to.

A scorching light flashed, as if a volcano had erupted. The folding fan was like a blazing sun, suppressing the Vermilion Bird. At the same time, it wanted to completely suppress Lin Mo.

This was an attack launched by a Nirvana Realm expert with a tier 9 spirit grade treasure. Under normal circumstances, even an expert of the same level would have to be on guard.

Lin Mo instantly felt the pressure. A purple light flashed beneath his feet and the Qilin pattern appeared.

The purple divine light blossomed, and with the support, it blocked the Dao fire.

His eyes flickered as he focused on comprehending this battle. The first exchange with a Nirvana Realm expert had benefited him greatly.

Hence, he didn’t use the origin spirit puppet to fight at the first moment. He decided to use this person to temper himself and see how strong he was under full strength.

He didn’t use the Qilin steps at full strength, so he didn’t reveal much of his aura. Furthermore, Lin Mo didn’t intend to let the other party know about it.

“Rumble.”

The flames erupted, creating a violent explosion. The Vermillion Bird Divine Flame emitted a divine light, containing a wisp of purple divine light as it fiercely smashed into the middle-aged man’s shoulder.

In an instant, half of his body was blasted into a bloody mess, revealing his bones.

As for the folding fan in his right hand, it had long been sent flying by the powerful air blast and fell not far away.

“The archaic Vermillion Bird’s spell is actually so terrifying…”

He was extremely shocked. Logically speaking, he should have won with an overwhelming advantage. Why would it be like this?

Moreover, the youth in front of him was only at Tier 29 of the Dragon Transformation Realm.

It was hard to imagine that if Lin Mo was at Tier 31 Dragon Transformation Realm, he would have been heavily injured by that attack just now.

Fighting across ranks, this was a true genius…

Lin Mo’s body moved slightly as he took the folding fan. He used the God Devouring Body’s domain to restrict his opponent’s combat strength.

Ever since he used the Vermillion Bird technique and Qilin technique, he had no intention of letting his opponent leave.

No matter what, he had to silence him.

At the same time, his heart was extremely excited, and his body was trembling uncontrollably due to his excitement.

Was this a martial art that was comparable to the heaven rank? It was an incomplete technique from an immemorial divine beast, and it was able to unleash such power with just a single move.

This made him pleasantly surprised and excited.

“As expected of the Nirvana Realm. If you were even one rank lower, you will die…”

Lin Mo’s spiritual sense was sharp, and he could sense that the other party was only injured, but he still had the strength to fight.

“This won’t do. The formation that he set up is about to be broken…”

Lin Mo was taken aback once more, and he dispelled the thought of continuing the battle. The formation that this fellow had set up in the small courtyard had already started to crack after the explosion.

If he were to continue fighting, the commotion he would cause would only grow larger and larger. It was highly likely that he would attract the attention of Yue Xuan’s experts.

Even though he trusted the person that Jiang Xiyue had chosen, he still had to take precautions.

A light flashed in front of Lin Mo, and an unfamiliar figure appeared. It was a puppet wearing full-body armor. Just based on its aura, it was impossible to tell if it was a puppet or a living creature.

He extended his spiritual sense, and in the next moment, the origin spirit puppet appeared with a light and absorbed his spiritual sense into its body.

At this moment, he had already established a connection with the origin spirit puppet and was able to control it.

Meanwhile, his body was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, not moving at all.

“With my current strength, the puppet can’t be too far away from my physical body, and I can’t fight for too long…”

Lin Mo discovered some flaws. In his current state, he could at most last for a day.

Once the time was up, his soul had to return, or the spiritual energy in his physical body would dissipate.

“Chi!”

A sword light flashed, and the middle-aged man stood up, holding a sharp sword in his hand.

He charged over, only to see an unfamiliar voice.

Thinking that it was the reinforcements, he did not retreat at all and charged towards Lin Mo, who was sitting cross-legged.

However, in the next moment, Lin Mo controlled the origin spirit puppet to raise its hand, and with a finger like a sword, it lightly slashed across.

The middle-aged man was greatly shocked and somewhat in disbelief. A line of blood appeared between his brows, and his consciousness gradually became dim.

It was just a single attack, but the speed was too fast. It was so fast that he couldn’t react in time.

By the time he understood what had happened, his life had already been lost. A Nirvana Realm powerhouse had died just like that.

Lin Mo withdrew his spiritual sense from the original spirit puppet’s body.

He began to clean the battlefield and checked the relics on this person’s body. He found a lot of good things.

“This person’s identity is extraordinary. He has three 8th tier spirit grade magic tools. When did I offend such a faction?” Lin Mo muttered to himself.

He did not find anything related to identity on this person’s body. There were only a lot of heavenly and earthly treasures.

“Forget it. I’ll deal with whatever comes my way. Who cares?”

After racking his brains to no avail, Lin Mo had no choice but to give up. Very quickly, he cleaned up the traces of the battle in the small courtyard and removed the formation.

When the formation was opened, Yue Xuan trembled and the guest elders rushed over one after another, sensing the aura of this place.

“Lord owner, what are you doing?”

The servant girl who had been waiting outside the small courtyard was shocked. She had been guarding this place the entire time, so why was there such a huge change in the small courtyard?

The lake water dried up, and all the buildings were destroyed, just like a volcano erupting…

“It’s nothing. I found something during my cultivation, so I stretched my limbs. Get someone to clean it up. Also, send out an invitation, and the auction will be held in three days.”

Lin Mo waved his hand and said, sending away some of the guest elders who had come to check on him.

At the same time, in a restaurant across from Yue Xuan.

Li Long and a few mysterious people were sitting at a table. On the table, there was a jade talisman. The Talisman was shining with spiritual light, but it shattered without any warning.

Seeing this situation, Li Long suddenly sat up, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He knew what this broken jade talisman meant. A Nirvana Realm powerhouse who went to capture Lin Mo had already been killed.

Moreover, according to the information from Yue Xuan’s spies, Lin Mo was only discovered by a few guest elders after the battle ended.

Li Long’s face was gloomy and he couldn’t calm down at all. He stared at the broken jade talisman and couldn’t say anything.

The other few mysterious people also had anger on their faces. They thought that they were only capturing a junior, but they didn’t expect that they would actually lose a Nirvana Realm powerhouse.

This was simply unimaginable. How did Lin Mo do it?

“Just now, there was another piece of news. Three days later, the Yue Xuan auction house will hold an auction. I reckon that the finale will be that heavenly fire fan.”

One of them opened his mouth. They were still clear about what their companions had.
