Light and Shadow (4)
A gigantic figure descended from the sky, but unfortunately, it wasn't head down, nor did it extend a single hand. The gigantic figure bent its long, hairy thighs, and its round, large buttocks seemed to gleam, as it descended towards Li Mo.
Li Mo's expression was subtle. It felt as if his mind and body were separated, and he was completely unable to control his body to do anything. Li Mo once again experienced that feeling of being unable to control himself. "This feeling is truly awful!"
"Your opponent is me!" A loud roar rang out, and Riftbreaker, whose body shone with black and red light, leaped directly from a distance, outside the range of the restraining ability. The wonder of his lightness skill was that he could make someone as heavy as a fat pig fly into the air, and even scream like a pig being slaughtered.
Riftbreaker had clearly mastered the true essence of lightness skill. He flew through the air and collided with the descending figure. The two rolled to the other side together. The binding ability that descended from the sky was instantly broken. This kind of binding only made people unable to control their own bodies, so Riftbreaker was not disturbed after he jumped.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I knew there was something wrong with their departure." Li Mo recognized the person who landed; it was the Assassin Order's helper from before. He had been collecting information about these helpers.
The man who fell from the sky was named Big Hammer. He was called that simply because his weapon was a long-handled hammer. As for his real name, no one remembered it anymore.
"According to intelligence, they really did leave from one side. The scouts followed them for several days. Logically, they shouldn't have had time to return. Did they use some special ability?" Li Mo swung his sword to block several pale blue darts that flew towards him, and looked up at the sky.
A giant black eagle soared through the sky, then slowly descended towards them. Li Mo frowned. "Is this beast taming, or a transformation ability?"
"Why..." A voice pulled Ling Ge Li Mo reality. Turning her head, she saw Ling Ge's face covered in tears, her expression one of utter despair and pain. "Why could you do this?"
"I apologize, but I am now the leader of the Shadow Cult." Li Mo's face showed deep apology, but no remorse. "It's just a difference in allegiances; I need to be responsible for the two thousand people behind me."
Having said that, Li Mo slashed at Ling Ge with the pitch-black blade in his hand without the slightest hesitation or doubt, just like the slash Ling Piaoluo had delivered when chasing him back then. Holy Sight Mountain was indeed a knot in Li Mo's heart, a knot in the heart of the leader who had gained the recognition of the Shadow Cult and nearly two thousand residents. For Li Mo, Holy Sight Mountain was just the past.
"You are not Li Mo, you are not, you are a monster corrupted by the power of shadow!" With tears in her eyes, Ling Ge finally made up her mind. The Short Blade in her hand flew out and then turned into blue flames together with Ling Ge.
The next moment, a blue flame flashed, and Ling Ge appeared behind Li Mo. A flame flashed in front of Li Mo's forehead, and Short Blade shot out from the flame, heading straight for Li Mo's head.
The previous ability of the Dancing Blue's flame teleportation required direct contact with the target, but Ling Ge's move was exceptionally skillful. After the Short Blade left her body, it transformed into blue flames along with it, effectively teleporting the attack as well.
Before Li Mo could react, the Short Blade pierced through Li Mo head, Li Mo him into a dark shadow.
From within the shadows, Li Mo emerged, the sound of his armor jingling. Looking at his now-flattened shadow, he coughed twice and said, "You've grown quite a bit, Junior Sister."
"Shut up! You're nothing but a demon now!" Ling Ge shouted angrily, her body wreathed in blue flames as she charged towards Li Mo, but Li Mo easily stopped her.
"Whatever, destiny is in my hands!" Li Mo dodged Ling Ge with a Ling Ge strike, looked up at the approaching Big Black, and then spread his arms wide, roaring angrily.
Just as the Big Black in the distant sky was preparing to land, a sudden gust of wind blew in from nowhere, not only dispersing the blue mist that had enveloped the entire temple, but also causing the three people standing on the eagle's back to lose their footing, with one of them falling off.
This move stunned everyone at Holy Sight Mountain, even the Big Black was taken aback. It quickly transformed into human form and ran to save the person. The other two landed on the ground, exchanged glances, and headed straight for Li Mo.
The Shadow Cult's officers were no pushovers. Seeing this scene, they recalled the miraculous performance of the previous High Priest, and their morale soared. They rushed forward to stop the reinforcements. However, Holy Sight Mountain's combat power was greater, and two more people appeared in front of Lu Li: Sheng Heng, who looked disappointed, and Ke Su, whose expression was unreadable.
"Is the difference really that big?" At this moment, He Feng, who had fallen to the ground, also recovered. His aura armor protected him, preventing him from suffering too much damage from Li Mo's slash. However, He Feng's mind was momentarily blank.
However, He Feng then looked at the corpses Ling Piaoluo on the ground and realized that if he could not defeat and kill him, he would be a laughingstock and a sinner of Holy Sight Mountain for the rest of his life, provided that the corpses could continue to live.
"Damn it, die!" The thought flashed through his mind. He Feng stood up and looked at Li Mo, who was standing in front of him with a knife, facing the combined attack of Ling Ge, Sheng Heng, Ke Su. He roared and mustered his strength, abandoning everything and desperately releasing his aura. His aura actually reached a new level. He activated the last ability of Fearless Edge. A knife condensed in his hand, and the green mist behind him dissipated. A huge red semi-transparent figure also appeared.
As He Feng charged forward, the enormous red phantom also drew its sword. When He Feng unleashed its strongest strike at Li Mo, the pale red giant behind him also swung its greatsword at Li Mo. The two swords combined, creating an aura that could Annihilation everything and lead all things to their end.
"Interesting." Lu Li sat on the temple roof, watching He Feng's move. He wasn't praising He Feng's strength, but rather the concept behind the move. The person who developed this move might not understand the difference between existences, but he did manage to embody the Gap Method in this move.
"Temporarily arousing its own existence, expanding it, and incidentally materializing its momentum, indirectly utilizing the pressure of the difference in elevation, and most importantly, condensing this expanded momentum to attack the very essence of momentum: existence."
"Anything struck by this blade will become unstable, its very existence guided towards destruction and end."
"Raising a main character is indeed too troublesome." Lu Li looked at Li Mo and shook his head.
The final move of Fearless Edge is specifically designed to counter momentum. It doesn't matter how strong your momentum is or how thick your armor is; it strikes directly at your presence. Lu Li even observed that Li Mo's strong luck attribute was disrupted when facing this move. Therefore, in the game, this attack could be considered true damage.
Still on the train, and I barely have any drafts saved up, so I'll probably only be able to post two updates today. I'm very sorry, I'll make up for it when I have the energy later.
