593 The Demonic Apes Revolt
“A half-step Almighty, the second step. That’s your realm. Do you still want to hide it? I’m more than enough to take care of you.”
Sensing no aura from Lin Mo, the elder sneered and directly pointed out Lin Mo’s realm.
He had a mocking look on his face. He did not doubt Lin Mo’s combat power.
If Lin Mo’s realm was the same as Xia Yu’s, he would not have dared to come alone and would have called a group of people to surround and kill him.
“I’m already in the first step of the Almighty realm, and I’m on the verge of breaking through to the second step. Do you really think you can fight someone a tier above you?”
The elder took a step forward, and a terrifying aura spread out from his body. His spiritual Qi burst out without any reservation.
The earth quaked and the mountains shook, causing the surrounding space to become unstable. The pressure that the elder had formed was simply too powerful. It had enveloped the entire area invisibly, preventing Lin Mo from escaping.
In the face of the elder’s terrifying aura, Lin Mo’s spiritual Qi fluctuations were at a disadvantage.
If it was just a competition of spiritual Qi density, he was no match for the elder.
“Hehe, you’re just like the Holy Son. You’re so arrogant and don’t know what true power is.”
Faced with the other party’s overbearing aura, Lin Mo smiled faintly and secretly circulated the Soul Devouring Art in his body.
His spiritual Qi suddenly erupted. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A sea of fire appeared in the sky.
The God Devouring Body devoured everything and absorbed the surrounding spiritual Qi into Lin Mo’s limbs and bones. The next moment, it exploded.
The world went from peaceful to violent, with flames and lightning wreaking havoc.
Lin Mo’s figure was like lightning, turning into an afterimage in an instant. When he reappeared, he was in front of the elder.
A layer of black light gradually appeared around his body. It was like a small black hole that devoured everything.
“Bang!”
The two bodies collided in the midst of lightning and thunder. Lin Mo knew that he was at a disadvantage in terms of cultivation level, so he chose to fight in close combat.
He used his physical body to burst out with super strength, and his fists whistled like a storm, catching his opponent off guard.
“How could this be…?”
After exchanging blows, the elder was shocked because the power that Lin Mo had unleashed was too strong.
This was not something he could fight against at all. In a battle of spiritual Qi, he could, and he would have the advantage.
However, at this moment, Lin Mo was fighting him in close combat, and spiritual Qi was only a supplementary effect.
After the exchange of blows, the elder was injured.
Especially after Lin Mo had taken out the Space-severing Divine Sword, the battle had become one-sided.
In less than a hundred moves, Lin Mo had beheaded the elder and destroyed his soul.
“Phew, it’s a good thing that he’s not very proficient in using his physical body…”
After the victory, Lin Mo heaved a sigh of relief. The elder was also very powerful, but his physical body seemed to be his weakness.
After being pulled into close combat, the elder had not been able to gain the upper hand in the entire process.
He wanted to put some distance between them and suppress Lin Mo with his spiritual Qi cultivation.
Even so, Lin Mo’s Kun Peng Wings were extremely fast. Even a Ruler might not be able to catch up to him, let alone an Almighty powerhouse.
After cleaning up the traces of the battle, Lin Mo turned around and left.
The exchange of blows just now had caused a huge commotion. He could not take the risk if it attracted some extraordinary figure to come over and check.
Lin Mo continued to venture deeper into the island. After traveling for dozens of kilometers, there were many dead bodies along the way. Some were from demonic beasts, while others were from humans.
Some of them were rotten, and their bones were about to turn to ashes. It was obvious that they had been here for countless years.
Some of the dead bodies had appeared recently, and there were still some bloodstains that had yet to dry. They had died very miserably.
Suddenly, Lin Mo’s sharp soul sensed something unusual in front of him.
In the dark forest, a pair of scarlet eyes opened. With a roar, a black figure pounced.
A fierce battle broke out in the midst of lightning and thunder.
As the flames spread, the ground cracked and the mountains collapsed. Countless boulders rolled down and exploded.
After a long time, Lin Mo stood in the ruins and casually wiped the black blood off the Space-severing Divine Sword.
It was a black demonic ape that had attacked him. It was extremely violent.
He seemed to have entered the demonic ape’s territory and was attacked, so he could only helplessly deal with it.
Nevertheless, what Lin Mo found hard to understand was that the demonic ape was supposed to live in a group. Logically speaking, it should not be moving alone.
“Besides, although the demonic ape has a strong sense of territory, its first reaction should be to expel someone and not kill…”
Lin Mo muttered to himself. This demonic ape was very abnormal, and this should not be its territory…
“Roar!”
In the distance, another angry roar came. An even more powerful demonic ape had come. It was the size of a small mountain.
As soon as it arrived, it roared in anger and began to attack Lin Mo, wanting to tear him apart.
“There’s something strange. It seems like these demonic apes have been provoked by someone…”
Lin Mo made his move and fought with the demonic ape. Its combat strength was even stronger, not weaker than the elder from before.
Furthermore, the demonic ape’s body was very tough. It fought with Lin Mo for 300 rounds before it was finally killed.
Suddenly, Lin Mo felt his hair stand on end and looked up into the distance.
There, pairs of Scarlet eyes lit up, and pitch-black demonic apes rushed out, attacking Lin Mo fearlessly.
In the dark forest, the demonic apes formed a beast tide and swarmed over in an overwhelming manner.
Lin Mo was shocked. This was not the time to fight. The beast tide was no joke.
He spread his Kun Peng Wings and instantly disappeared from this place. The next moment, this place was flooded, and countless demonic apes galloped past. Some of them had even reached the Ruler realm, and their battle prowess was terrifying.
After seeing Lin Mo kill their kind, they tore open a spatial rift and chased after Lin Mo.
“Roar…”
While furious roars were heard, Lin Mo began to flee. He crossed the void and blocked the attack of a Ruler demonic ape with the Qilin Steps before he could escape.
The demonic ape did not give up and chased after Lin Mo for more than fifty kilometers. In the end, Lin Mo’s control of the Kun Peng’s extreme speed allowed him to escape completely before he reluctantly returned to the beast tide.
“It was really dangerous…”
Lin Mo was shocked. He was unlucky to have met this group of demonic apes. From the looks of it, they were probably running for their lives. There seemed to be some terrifying existence in the depths of the forest.
“demonic apes are relatively strong among demonic beasts. What kind of existence can make them so afraid?”
It was impossible for Lin Mo to retreat. The purpose of his trip was to find that special space.
Although he knew that there was danger ahead, he had no choice but to move forward.
Along the way, he saw many dead bodies of all kinds of living beings. Some cultivators who had entered this place long ago had also encountered mishaps.
For the next few days, Lin Mo walked through the mountains and only managed to obtain a few elixirs.
In the end, he walked out of the forest and discovered that there was a camp in front of him. There were more than thirty people gathered together and resting there.
There were many powerhouses among them, and their ages varied. After discovering Lin Mo, they did not make things difficult for him and instead invited him to rest.
“Fellow friend, why are you walking alone? Where are your teammates?”
