Chapter 1837: Chapter 1705: Worth Quite a Bit
Bang!
The ground shuddered. Da Shan stomped hard with both feet, his body shooting into the air like a cannonball. Swinging that massive wolf fang club, he tore the air open with brute force, air exploding as he smashed it viciously toward the silver-armored youth!
The silver-armored youth hastily gathered True Yuan at his chest to form a Protective Shield. The wolf fang club slammed into it with a heavy crash; the silver-armored youth was blasted away on the spot, and the Protective Shield formed from Primordial Power shattered instantly.
"Senior Brother..."
"Third Senior Brother..."
The faces of the other Water God Sect Disciples all changed drastically, their expressions filled with horror. That silver-armored youth was the third-ranked expert of the Water God Sect, and he had already reached the Star System Level Peak Realm, just half a step away from the Star Domain Level. They had also come this time for the Water Ape Inner Core; once he obtained it, he would have a chance to
break through to the Star Domain Level.
They hadn’t expected to be a step too late.
When they arrived at Qingguan Marsh, they discovered the Water Ape had already been killed by someone else.
"What terrifying strength!" The silver-armored youth, who had been blasted back, finally stabilized his figure in midair. His pupils contracted slightly, then a hint of solemnity surfaced in his eyes.
The temporary True Yuan Protective Shield he had formed had been shattered by the opponent. That surge of Brute Force had poured into his body again; if not for the War Armor he wore weakening several layers of the Attack, he might have coughed up a mouthful of blood on the spot.
"Fine, let me show you what I can really do." The silver-armored youth hung in the air, the line of his lips curling into an exceptionally sinister arc.
Luo Yu’er and the Rain King’s eyes both widened, and even Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, watching as the silver-armored youth’s body continuously grew larger...
He was getting bigger, and the silver War Armor on his body grew larger along with him.
In just a moment, the silver-armored youth’s size became comparable to Da Shan’s. His limbs looked like they were cast from steel, thick fur sprouted over his arms and legs, and hair grew across his cheeks as well. Turned out he was of the Ape-man Clan, the same Ape Clan as that Water Ape.
However, the silver-armored youth was still of the Human Clan.
The Ape-man Clan also belonged to the human camp. It was like evolution theory on Earth, which said humans evolved from apes—but humans are humans, apes are apes.
"Forcing me, Lin Fei, to reveal my True Body—you’ve got some skill. But this Water Ape Inner Core is mine, and all of you must die." The silver-armored youth’s eyes turned pale-gold, radiating endless chill.
As Lin Fei spoke, his palms flared with golden light, and a Dark Golden stick appeared in his hands. Both ends of the stick were pointed, and the shaft was covered in dense golden runes; clearly, this was a rather powerful Magic Treasure.
The Talents of Ten Thousand Domains from the various Great Forces who dared venture into the Dark Demon Sea were all formidable, each with the ability to challenge above their Realm.
Thus, even when he saw Da Shan was a Star Domain Level powerhouse, Lin Fei didn’t show the slightest fear. If he had no capability, how would he be worthy of coming to temper himself in the Dark Demon Sea?
"All of you must die!" Lin Fei shouted, gripping the golden stick in his hand. In an instant, countless golden stick shadows filled the sky, dense as storm and rain, pouring down over Da Shan.
Da Shan was a Corpse Master, and his spiritual wisdom had just awakened; he fundamentally didn’t understand what fear was. He simply raised the wolf fang club and charged to meet the blow.
Bang bang bang bang!
Rumble! The two figures nearly surpassed the speed at which the eye could track; only continuous sonic booms and the clashing of Weapons rang out in the sky as the two figures split into dozens of afterimages, exchanging blows again and again. In truth, that was merely the afterimages left behind
by the sheer speed of their movements.
Everyone’s gaze was locked onto the two entangled figures in the sky, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, and the outcome was already within his expectations. What did surprise him was that this fellow from the Water God Sect was so overwhelmingly strong. The Water God Sect was the number one Sect in the Ape-man Star Domain; Ape-men naturally possessed physiques stronger than ordinary humans, and they cultivated Cultivation Methods that focused on Body to Saint. Their bodies were nurtured using precious medicinal materials and Barbaric Beast Inner Cores—if this had been an ordinary Cultivator, they likely
would have already been smashed flying by Da Shan by now.
Secondly, the Disciples qualified to be sent to temper themselves in the Dark Demon Sea were all the Sect’s favored ones, with no weak ability to challenge across Realms, and they carried precious Magic Treasures bestowed by their elders.
At the very least, these Disciples of the Water God Sect couldn’t be evaluated by the standards of an ordinary Star System Level Peak Realm.
Boom!
Another fierce collision erupted, and a ring of visible ripples spread outward in all directions from the sky.
A figure was sent flying in a sorry state, careening diagonally toward the ground.
The ground was gouged open with a long scar, soil flying to both sides. That figure crashed into a giant boulder, shattering it to powder before finally coming to a stop.
A lone figure still stood in the sky, tall and imposing, like a War God.
"Third Senior Brother!"
"Senior Brother."
The miserable figure was Lin Fei of the Water God Sect. His expression was ugly—Anger, fear, shock, all kinds of complicated emotions twisted across his face. He raised his head, eyes filled with resentment as he glared at the figure in the sky.
Thud!
Beside him, a golden stick fell from the sky, half of it driving straight into the ground. Da Shan was a Corpse Master, refined with all kinds of precious materials; he was like a humanoid Magic Treasure. There were even some ancient Magic runes engraved on his body. His spiritual wisdom had only just awakened, so his strength in Laws and Primordial Power wasn’t great—but in close
combat, he was unrivaled.
Lin Fei had chosen to fight Da Shan in close quarters; ending up like this was already within Lin Mo’s expectations. "I lost?" Lin Fei ground his teeth, refusing to accept that he had been defeated so cleanly. Although the opponent’s strength surpassed him by a Realm, he was also an expert infinitely close to the Star Domain Level. He was a genius within the Sect, and he had defeated Star Domain Level
enemies in cross-Realm battles before.
Whoosh!
Lin Mo stepped forward, Primordial Power surging in his palm as he retrieved the golden stick that had fallen to the side. "This stick stays. You can walk. If you don’t want to leave, you can leave your lives here as well."
"My Mixed Element Stick." Lin Fei’s eyes bulged as he stared fixedly at the golden stick in Lin Mo’s hand.
"Third Senior Brother, let’s go."
"We’ll take this revenge later!"
"Go back and tell Second Senior Brother and Senior Brother."
The few Disciples of the Water God Sect were all somewhat afraid of the towering Da Shan hanging in midair, and they hastily helped Lin Fei up.
"This debt, my Water God Sect will remember." Lin Fei shot Lin Mo a final look, then the group turned into several streaks of Flowing Light and sped away.
"Da Shan, how strong was that man?" Lin Mo asked, looking at Da Shan who had landed at his side.
Da Shan replied respectfully, "Young Master, that person’s strength was not weak, but he was still lacking somewhat in close combat. After all, there’s a Realm’s difference between us." Lin Mo nodded, carefully examining the golden stick in his hand. His palm slid over it, wiping away the spiritual power imprint left by the Mixed Element Stick, then branded his own spiritual power into it. "This stick is not bad. A Star Domain Level Magic Treasure; even among Star Domain Level
Treasures it can be ranked as a High Grade piece."
This time, the Talents of Ten Thousand Domains had all come to the Dark Demon Sea to sharpen their blades and test their edge; none of them were soft persimmons.
"A Magic Treasure Weapon that counts as High Grade even among Star Domain Level gear is worth quite a lot of money." Lin Mo chuckled.
