Hearing Lin Mo's nonchalant attitude, Shi Nian was immediately enraged.
An unnamed anger suddenly rose from the bottom of Shi Nian's heart. In all his years of life, he had never been so looked down upon by such a young junior.
"Good lad," Shi Nian's voice was laced with obvious anger, "You're quite arrogant."
"So what if Foresight my illusion? Did you think the Remnant Dream Martial Soul could only create illusions?"
"I am Soul Saint of level seventy-two. Dealing with a mere Soul King like you is a piece of cake!"
Shi Nian's figure remained hidden in the shadows, the phantoms of his seven Soul Ring appearing and disappearing in the mist, the Soul Ring Configuration being the Quasi-Soul Saint configuration of two yellow, two purple, and three black.
While Lin Mo's External Beast Martial Soul Master is powerful, its drawbacks are also extremely obvious.
Unlike ordinary Beast Martial Soul Master, External Beast Martial Soul Master have their physical body and Martial Soul separated. When the Martial Soul is fighting outside, the Soul Master's physical body has the same defensive capabilities as ordinary Tool Martial Soul Master, or even weaker.
This means that Lin Mo's ability to resist him is even weaker than that of an ordinary Soul King or Soul Master.
If you find the right opportunity, you can defeat the enemy with a single strike.
Lin Mo clearly had no intention of wasting Shi Nian talking to Shi Nian.
His expression was calm, but a slight thought flickered in his mind.
The next moment, as soon as Charizard appeared, its body was covered with a layer of blue-purple energy.
The energy enveloped its entire body, and its aura rose steadily, reaching a rather astonishing level in the blink of an eye.
Without any hesitation, the Charizard flapped its Dual Wingbeat and transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards a shadowy spot in the forest.
Dragon Rush!
Blue-purple energy condensed around it, forming a cone-shaped shockwave. Wherever it passed, a trench was carved into the ground, and all the vegetation was reduced to dust.
Lin Mo stood still, his expression unchanged.
Even before, when Shi Nian was rambling on with him, he had already used his Spirit Eyes to Lock-On Shi Nian's exact location.
The illusion created by the Remnant Dream Martial Soul can confuse the eyes, but it cannot completely conceal the fluctuations of Soul Power and the aura of Life.
Under the watchful gaze of the Spirit Eyes, Shi Nian's hiding place was as clearly visible as a light in the darkness.
Shi Nian was being Lock-On by Charizard, was suddenly shocked.
He was originally hidden in the shadows of the woods, confident that with the concealment ability of the Remnant Dream Martial Soul, Lin Mo would never be able to find his exact location.
But the direction the Charizard was charging from was clearly aimed at him!
What alarmed Shi Nian even more was the six Soul Ring that rose from beneath the feet of the Charizard when it appeared.
Two yellows, one purple, and three blacks!
Six-Ring Soul Emperor!
This was not the Five-Ring Soul King he had expected at all!
" Soul Emperor —it's actually Soul Emperor!" Shi Nian's pupils contracted sharply, his heart filled with shock and disbelief. "A fourteen-year-old Six-Ring Soul Emperor —three Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!"
In terms of the number of Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring alone, this dragon beast is already on par with himself, a Seven-Ring Soul Sage!
No wonder Lin Mo was so confident!
In a flash, Shi Nian could no longer hide, and his Soul Ring lit up one after another.
He activated the Second Soul Ring, Third Soul Ring, and Fifth Soul Ring — Soul Skill belonging to the Remnant Dream Martial Soul —in succession, attempting to interfere with the Charizard's mind and create illusions to hinder its actions.
However, Charizard in its Dragon Rush state was enveloped in raging Dragon-type energy, rendering any mental interference utterly ineffective.
The Red figure moved with unstoppable force, crashing heavily into the old tree where Shi Nian was hiding.
"Boom--!"
The thick tree trunk snapped in two, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
Shi Nian's figure was forcefully knocked out, flying backward and crashing heavily onto the open ground more than ten meters away.
"Puff--!"
Shi Nian Spit Up a mouthful of blood, mixed with dark red fragments, clearly pieces of internal organs.
He felt as if every bone in his body was about to shatter.
His chest was caved in, and several ribs were broken. His left arm was twisted at an odd angle, clearly fractured.
The intense pain made his vision go black, and he almost fainted.
The Remnant Dream Martial Soul has many advantages: powerful mental strength, unpredictable illusions, and a talent for controlling the field and launching surprise attacks.
However, its only drawback is that it doesn't significantly enhance one's physical fitness.
Compared to other Soul Saint of the same level, his body was remarkably fragile.
He was hit head-on by a Charizard 'Dragon Rush, and he didn't die on the spot. He survived only because of his Soul Saint- level Soul Power Facade.
The next moment, the enormous figure of the Charizard landed, its claws reaching out to grab Shi Nian's Dragon Claw and lift him off the ground.
At that Shi Nian, his feet were off the ground, and he struggled in vain, but he could not break free from the iron-like Dragon Claw.
This turn of events was something he never expected.
He, a dignified Soul Saint of level 72 and Canghui Academy, was actually defeated by a fourteen-year-old child.
One move.
With just one move, he was knocked out of his hiding place by the dragon beast and was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
He couldn't even force Lin Mo to use any other methods.
A fourteen-year-old Soul Emperor with three Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, instantly killing Soul Saint.
Is this really something a human can do?
Humiliation, resentment, fear—a mix of emotions swirled in Shi Nian's heart.
But more than anything, there was an unbelievable sense of absurdity, which ultimately turned into profound despair.
On the other side, Lin Mo took a step forward and slowly walked towards Shi Nian, who was being held by Charizard.
His expression was quite complex.
To be honest, this will be the first time he has ever killed someone.
Although he had already mentally prepared himself when Frisk that Shi Nian was spying on him and decided to go with the flow to come here.
But when the moment actually came, Lin Mo couldn't help feeling somewhat uneasy.
The feeling of killing Soul Beast is ultimately different from that of killing a human.
Although Soul Beast possess intelligence, they are ultimately not of our kind.
Hunting Soul Beast to obtain Soul Ring is a rule that Soul Master cannot violate; he has become accustomed to it.
It's different from killing.
During his time at the Ye Family Medical Hall, he primarily practiced medicine and saved lives as a healer; he never personally ended anyone's life.
Therefore, he was unsure how he would react when his hands actually bore the brunt of human lives.
But some things must be experienced beforehand.
It's always good to prepare in advance for a trip to that place.
It's much better than being unable to accept the consequences of killing someone at the last minute, leading to a mental breakdown.
This is one of the reasons why, even though he had already Frisk Shi Nian's intentions, he still chose to follow Shi Nian's plan and come to this place.
Some classes have to be taken both morning and evening.
He needed such an opportunity, a relatively controlled environment, to carry out his first killing of a human.
Lin Mo's hesitation was clearly seen by Shi Nian, and upon realizing this, a glint of survival flashed in Shi Nian's eyes.
