Chapter 601 - 601 Intense Physical Battle
601 Intense Physical Battle
Gongsun Wenhao was astonished as he looked at Lin Mo. ‘Is this the God Devouring Body? His physical body is extremely terrifying…’
“My God, this is impossible. How could Lin Mo block Gongsun Wenhao’s attack?”
Seeing this scene, people cried out involuntarily. This was too unbelievable.
Gongsun Wenhao was ranked fifth on the Prodigy Roll and was extremely powerful. Although Lin Mo had the God Devouring Body, his cultivation level was not high enough.
Now that the two of them were evenly matched, would Lin Mo not be heaven-defying when his realm caught up?
“It’s too terrifying. Is this the power of the God Devouring Body? Wouldn’t he be invincible against someone in the same realm?”
Everyone murmured. Being able to be on par with Gongsun Wenhao, whose realm was higher, was too extraordinary.
After all, they were aware of Gongsun Wenhao’s strength. He was able to sweep away many geniuses, and there were not many in the same realm who could fight him.
Even so, there were still some more rational people, such as Mu Yuzhu, Gu Feng, and others.
They looked at the battlefield quietly. The battle had just begun, and the two of them had not even used their full strength.
“Look, they’re fighting again. The commotion is getting bigger.
Someone cried out in alarm. Within a boundless radiance, Lin Mo and Gongsun Wenhao’s figures were entangled, and sword radiances continuously exploded in the air.
Occasionally, they would stop. The two of them continued to face each other. Lin Mo held the Space-severing Divine Sword in his hand and blocked Gongsun Wenhao’s attacks.
“I still think that Lord Gongsun Wenhao can win. He hasn’t even used his magic tool.”
Someone commented. The impression that Gongsun Wenhao had left on them was too deep, making them think that he could win.
Lin Mo raised his hand and used the Kun Peng Claws to scratch the White Tiger Arm, causing five bloody wounds to appear.
At the same time, he slashed out with his sword. Lightning and fire attached to it, and a monstrous sword light burst out and suppressed down.
The quality of the Space-severing Divine Sword was extraordinary, and it allowed the Sword Qi’s power to explode to its maximum. At this moment, the vermilion bird’s figure appeared behind Lin Mo.
The vermilion bird danced in the lightning. Although it spat out scarlet mist and endless flames, it was still a vermilion bird.
This attack contained the laws of two attributes and even the vermilion bird’s art. It made countless people feel overwhelmed with shock. The movement caused by this move was too great.
Lin Mo was not simple. His realm was lower, but he could fight evenly with Gongsun Wenhao. When he retaliated, the power he erupted with was even stronger.
The sword enlarged, and the sword light gathered. Lin Mo raised it high and slashed down as if it could cleave down the sun, the moon, and the stars.
“Puff!”
Gongsun Wenhao did not want to be outdone. A golden light appeared on his body, especially on his arms.
Many runes were flickering there, and the golden light was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.
“Dang!”
A crisp sound of collision rang out, and everyone felt a ringing in their ears as if they were about to go deaf.
Sword Qi swept across, and golden light flashed. The space here distorted, and the energy generated from the collision tore everything apart, forming cracks in the void.
This was too heaven-defying! Was this a battle between Rulers?
This was what everyone was thinking. They were all extremely shocked, thinking that this was too unbelievable.
The terrifying explosion spread. At this point, even a Ruler would frown.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, Lin Mo wielded the Space-severing Divine Sword and fought Gongsun Wenhao once again. The illusionary image of the vermilion bird appeared behind him.
On Gongsun Wenhao’s body, a golden light appeared, and all kinds of runes flickered.
After the collision, the cracks in the void were still there and would not heal in a short time.
Lin Mo and Gongsun Wenhao looked at each other and did not say anything. That said, the battle intent between the two of them had reached its peak.
The commotion caused by the battle was huge, attracting countless people to come and watch.
At that moment, Lin Mo was slightly shocked. The other party was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
He knew that Gongsun Wenhao definitely had the qualifications to be the first on Cloud State’s Prodigy Roll. It was just that he had not achieved it yet.
During the exchange of blows, Lin Mo could sense that the golden light that appeared on his opponent’s body was a terrifying Body-tempering Art.
Despite that, Gongsun Wenhao had not completely cultivated it to perfection, so the golden light was released and could not be restrained.
Once he could completely control the golden light outside his body, his physical body would be complete, and he would be invincible against someone in the same realm…
Lin Mo rubbed his numb arm, but his fighting spirit did not diminish.
The other party had yet to reach perfection, but he also had room for improvement.
He had to cultivate the Zhu Yan Body Refining Art. By then, he would be able to advance with the help of that terrifying energy.
“Hehe, you know how to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Interesting.”
Gongsun Wenhao chuckled. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and golden runes flowed around his body, making him look incomparably divine.
He had been receiving Lin Mo’s attacks, wanting to see what was so special about the God Devouring Body.
However, Lin Mo’s physical body was beyond his imagination, and he could not force Lin Mo to use the God Devouring Body completely.
Hearing this, Lin Mo sneered. He was indeed playing to his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses.
He knew that it was impossible to defeat Gongsun Wenhao by relying on martial arts or cultivation. After all, Gongsun Wenhao was a genius of the Gongsun family.
How could someone ranked fifth on the Prodigy Roll of Cloud State have a simple attainment in martial arts?
Thus, Lin Mo closed the distance from the start and chose to fight close combat with the other party. This way, he could close the gap in their cultivation bases.
Although Lin Mo had not cultivated the Zhu Yan Body Refining Art, he had tempered his body to the extreme in every realm.
In addition, the God Devouring Body could refine his body. This was the reason he could compete with Gongsun Wenhao.
“Boom!”
The sound of a sword clashing exploded as it slashed at the golden light, creating a deafening sound.
After many exchanges, Lin Mo was forced back. The Space-severing Divine Sword left his hand and was sent flying.
His palm was bleeding. After so many collisions, he was starting to get injured, even though his physical body was terrifying.
The golden light on Gongsun Wenhao’s body also began to crack, showing signs of damage.
Even though he knew that Lin Mo was playing to his strengths to avoid his weaknesses, he still did not pull away.
He wanted to know how powerful the one-in-a-million physique of the human race was.
“Why is my lord doing this? The God Devouring Body is unparalleled in the world and can be compared to a true dragon.”
Gu Feng sighed. He knew what Gongsun Wenhao was thinking.
Gongsun Wenhao just wanted to know the God Devouring Body’s true combat strength. Gu Feng was worried that something unexpected might happen.
“What a terrifying pair. They’ve exchanged a hundred blows…”
Someone exclaimed. They knew that Lin Mo would be able to enter the Prodigy Roll after this battle.
Due to his realm, his ranking might fall behind Gongsun Wenhao…
At the same time, a guess appeared in everyone’s hearts. Could Lin Mo… Be victorious?
As soon as this thought appeared, they immediately abandoned it.
What kind of joke was this? Gongsun Wenhao being defeated by someone three steps lower than him? That would be impossible.
For now, Gongsun Wenhao and Lin Mo still focused on their physical bodies, supplemented by spiritual Qi and martial arts techniques.
Such a battle would not last long. Once Gongsun Wenhao knew that Lin Mo’s physical body was not weaker than his, he would use a large amount of spiritual Qi.
At that time, Lin Mo would not be able to withstand the crushing pressure of the massive amount of spiritual Qi.
This battle shook the whole of the Kun Peng Nest. In addition, there was also the strange phenomenon that occurred when Lin Mo opened the nest.
The news of Lin Mo’s God Devouring Body had spread throughout the island, and everyone had rushed over to see him.
