Seeing Xu Guang retreating rapidly, trying to escape, Chu Mo’s eyes flashed with a sharp light. He stomped, using Luo Yan Steps again, and instantly caught up to Xu Guang.
He continued circulating his energy, with his whole body flickering with lightning.
He sent out another punch.
In an instant, purple lightning wreaked havoc. They were like mighty Pythons attacking his surroundings, with boundless might akin to the eruption of a volcano. All this power had descended upon Xu Guang’s head.
Although Xu Guang desperately tried to flee, how could his speed compare to lightning?
“No…spare me, I beg for mercy, I don’t want to…” Xu Guang’s face was pale and bloodless as he still tried to plead. But before he could finish…
Chu Mo expressionlessly struck with his fist.
Boom!
The sound of an explosion rang out. Xu Guang’s body was hit by this lightning fist of tremendous power, and his internal organs were destroyed in an instant. He did not even have time to let out a miserable scream before abruptly falling silent.
His body fell to the ground like a torn rag doll. Completely devoid of life.
With this, Xu Guang was dead!
After everything settled, Chu Mo slowly calmed his inner breath and first checked on Chen Xiwei. He found that she had only fainted due to the severe injuries to her body.
He took out some medicinal pills from his storage bag to help her heal and restore.
After helping her swallow them and sensing the gradual energy and vitality in her body recover, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“With Recovery and Energy Restoration Pills to heal her injuries, there shouldn’t be any major issues.” Chu Mo put his mind at ease.
Turning around, his gaze fell on Xu Guang’s corpse.
According to Du Jing, this person should be Changfeng Base’s proud prodigy, Xu Guang, who possessed a High-Grade Saber Talent!
Although Xu Guang didn’t have a chance to use it in the brief fight with Chu Mo, it could be imagined that such a Talent must be extremely powerful.
Not to mention any other aspect, in terms of killing techniques, it could be considered to be peerless.
Now that Xu Guang was dead, and since Chu Mo’s Absorption ability was no longer on cooldown after a month, he could absorb it.
With this in mind, Chu Mo reached out his hand without hesitation, silently chanting [Absorb!] in his heart.
| Absorption was successful! Obtained High-Grade Saber Talent! Do you wish to fuse with it? |
Along with the prompt, a small white orb appeared in Chu Mo’s hand. Inside the orb, there was an illusory saber, emanating an extremely sharp aura.
Without any hesitation.
“Fuse!”
Boom!
The extremely sharp aura instantly surged into his body. Chu Mo felt as if his entire body was being cut into pieces: his flesh, bone marrow, and meridians seemed to have been severed inch by inch.
The pain originating from the depths of his soul almost made it unbearable for Chu Mo to endure, nearly making him cry out.
Fortunately, this pain came and went quickly. After a few breaths, the pain disappeared.
At this time, Chu Mo felt a warm sensation all over, his body seeming different from before.
He looked at his stats.
| Target: Chu Mo Physique: High-Grade Cultivation Physique Talent: High-Grade Saber Talent, Low-Grade Lightning Element Talent, Low-Grade Wind Element Talent |
“I’ve gotten the High-Grade Saber Talent!” Chu Mo picked up his saber. He suddenly felt as if he had formed some kind of connection with it. He could feel the saber’s breath, its rhythm, and even its aura.
It was as if this saber, which had been forged and should be lifeless, to be endowed with vitality in his hands!
The saber came alive!
Casually waving it around, countless insights about Saber Techniques and skills in using sabers flooded his mind. Even the Wind Splitting Blade Martial Skill, which he had already cultivated to a high level, seemed to have improved with his greater comprehension of sabers.
Chu Mo was confident that if he used Wind Splitting Blade now, its lethality would at least double!
This made Chu Mo more than satisfied.
“Continue Absorbing!” Putting away the saber, Chu Mo continued absorbing.
| Absorption was successful! Obtained Silver-Grade Martial Skill: Raging Wind Thunder Blade! Do you wish to fuse with it? |
“A Silver-Grade Martial Skill!?” Looking at this Martial Skill Manual that appeared in his hand, even Chu Mo couldn’t help but gasp.
Martial Skills were precious and rare. In Luyang Base, even a Bronze-Grade Martial Skill would cause a frenzy of people trying to snatch it if not bid for it as soon as it appeared. Therefore, it was very difficult for many Martial Artists to obtain a Bronze-Grade Martial Skill.
The preciousness of a Silver-Grade Martial Skill went without saying.
“Sure enough, as expected of the proud prodigy from Changfeng Base, to actually have such a treasure!” Chu Mo was overjoyed. Without hesitation, he directly slapped the manual onto his head.
The next instant, the entire manual shattered with a bang, transforming into countless streams of light that poured into his mind.
All the techniques of this Martial Skill were thus learned by him.
After doing all this, Chu Mo’s gaze fell on Xu Guang’s body again, but found that there was nothing more to absorb.
He could only give up.
Instead, his gaze landed on Xu Guang’s waist. There was a storage bag hanging there.
Judging from its appearance, it was exactly the same as the storage bag he obtained from Zhou Qi.
Taking it down and opening it, he discovered that it also had a space of about two cubic meters inside. It was densely packed with many Spirit Stones, roughly calculated to be at least ten thousand.
Besides that, there were also some precious Ferocious Beast Materials and Blood, plus some miscellaneous items, all of considerable value.
“This can really be considered a big harvest!” Chu Mo put away the storage bag, a smile appearing on his face.
After looting the corpse, it was time to deal with the aftermath.
Looking at Xu Guang’s corpse, Chu Mo stood there pondering.
[This guy is the proud prodigy of Changfeng Base. If someone discovers his corpse, it would definitely cause an uproar and might lead to some trouble. The safest method for me right now is to destroy his corpse and eliminate any traces of us.] With this in mind, Chu Mo directly sent out a punch. Lightning power coiling around his fist, smashing down on Xu Guang’s corpse like a mountain.
Hit by such a terrifying fist force, Xu Guang’s corpse instantly exploded, bursting into a cloud of blood mist and scattering into dust.
Like this, all traces of Xu Guang had completely vanished.
After doing all this, Chu Mo took Chen Xiwei and quickly left.
…
Inside the hole carved out of a tall tree trunk, Chen Xiwei slowly woke up.
“I…I’m still alive?” She looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and muttered.
In her memory, she clearly remembered being heavily injured by Xu Guang and about to perish under his blade.
In the last moment before losing consciousness, she heard a loud shout and vaguely saw a familiar figure charging over.
“Was it that person who saved me? His voice…sounded so familiar!” Chen Xiwei didn’t see clearly at the time, but felt that person’s voice and figure were especially familiar, causing a silhouette to appear in her mind.
But as soon as it emerged, she dismissed it.
[Impossible! He still can’t cultivate, there’s no way he could come here!] Chen Xiwei denied the thought.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed a storage bag beside her. Picking it up and opening it, she found that it surprisingly contained many Ferocious Beast Materials inside.
Just based on these, she could obtain a top ten or even top three ranking in this hunting trial!
[This is Xu Guang’s storage bag! Does that mean Xu Guang is already dead? Did the person who saved me leave this behind? Why did he save me?] One question after another appeared in Chen Xiwei’s mind.
But she couldn’t figure out the answers.
Since she couldn’t understand, she simply stopped thinking about it for now.
Chen Xiwei tidied up, took the storage bag, and then loudly spoke towards the surrounding dense forest, “Since sir is unwilling to show himself, Chen Xiwei won’t force the matter! But this life-saving grace, Chen Xiwei will remember in her heart and will surely repay it one day!”
After saying this, Chen Xiwei jumped down from the hole and left this place.
However, as she left, that familiar figure that charged over in her moment of peril kept flashing through her mind.
“Could it be him?”
