Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

The soul condensed as if tangible, clearly reaching a certain realm in cultivation.

”I must extract a trace of my soul to protect my mother’s soul, to prevent it from collapsing,” Lin Mo communicated through Divine Thought.

”Mr. Lin, soul damage is a major issue...” Zhen Yuanzi hesitated to continue.

The soul is the most important thing for a cultivator, even if the body is invincible, if the soul is shattered, one becomes a mere shell. Repairing a damaged soul is extremely difficult.

Lin Mo calmly said, ”She is my mother, one of the most important people to me. If she dies, what use is seeking immortality or the Tao? The body and skin are a gift from one’s parents, you need not say more.”

Zhen Yuanzi heard the firm resolve in Lin Mo’s voice, blinked, and swallowed his words. For him, being trapped in the Prison Tower for three thousand years since birth without seeing his parents, it was hard to understand the deep familial love Lin Mo cherished.

”Mom, believe in me, I will definitely awaken you. Rest well now, just consider it a nap,” Lin Mo silently promised.

In the sky, from the crimson light group, a strand as fine as hair separated. The pain from soul extraction was a hundred times more excruciating than quenching the body with the Essence Blood of the Sky-reaching Snake. It was pain from deep within the soul.

Yet the delicate-featured youth did not let out even a groan of pain, instead gritting his teeth, furrowing his sword-like eyebrows, and holding a resolute faith in his heart... for living isn’t just about seeking longevity, there are things worth more than the Tao — protection.

If one lacks the protection of the heart, they become an empty shell. Even with immense power, they won’t go far. One must have faith, a relentless belief, a creed to protect family, to truly fulfill oneself.

The red strand of light quickly burrowed into Yang Chuxue’s brow, transforming into a gentle power, diving into the Divine Sea, safeguarding the weakened soul. Lin Mo retracted his remaining soul. Even though he only extracted 2% of his Power of Soul, it still caused significant damage to his soul. Extracting too much would lead to severe soul injuries. He had reached his limit.

With his soul guarding Yang Chuxue’s soul stone, her soul wouldn’t easily collapse, giving him time to seek materials for refining the Five Elements Soul Condensing Pill.

As for those cultivators from Han Country, daring to harm his mother, once he saved her, he vowed to avenge her, ensuring they paid a heavy price.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with a fierce cold light.

”Mr. Lin, there’s something I find odd,” Zhen Yuanzi frowned, suddenly speaking up.

”Let’s discuss it in the back garden.”

Lin Mo spoke, his figure flickered, leaping out the window to the garden behind the villa. The garden was tranquil, with stone tables and chairs. Lin Mo sat on a stone chair and calmly asked, ”What is it?”

”Mr. Lin, logically, after we killed Jin Taiyu, Zheng Renhe, and Moon Reading Fate in Han Country, other cultivators there should know, and they certainly must know the Sky-reaching Snake is dead. So why haven’t they sent anyone to hunt us down?” Zhen Yuanzi voiced his doubt.

While Zheng Renhe, Moon Reading Fate, and Jin Taiyu were strong, they likely weren’t the strongest cultivators in Han Country.

Lin Mo nodded, ”I’ve thought about that too. It is indeed strange they haven’t sent people after us. Maybe they don’t care about the death of the Sky-reaching Snake, Zheng Renhe, and Jin Taiyu, or... they can’t leave Han Country.” ”Can’t leave Han Country?” Zhen Yuanzi furrowed his brow slightly, circled in the air, left a faint black fog, then disappeared, and smiled, ”Mr. Lin, I think the second possibility is more likely. They can’t leave Han Country for now; otherwise, they wouldn’t let us go so easily without hunting us down.”

”Hmm, regardless of the reason, I need to quickly improve my strength. Only by getting stronger can I protect my loved ones and intimidate my enemies,” Lin Mo said gravely.

Nightfall.

The starlight spilled like mercury, and the cool breeze gently moved the white curtains.

”Xiao Mo, are you still thinking about Mom?” Xia Mengdie, dressed in home clothing, walked onto the room’s balcony. Lin Mo stood there, gazing at the vast array of stars, lost in thought.

”Yes, to awaken Mom, I must find materials to refine the Five Elements Soul Condensing Pill, but Earth has scarce resources... I don’t know if I can find what I need,” Lin Mo furrowed his sword-like eyebrows, his voice tinged with slight melancholy.

”Xiao Mo, I’m sorry.” Xia Mengdie stood beside him, her bright, water-like eyes looking out the window, ”I’m your wife, yet when you’re troubled, I can’t help you at all.” Lin Mo blinked, turned to look at Xia Mengdie, whose face was delicate and her skin cool as water. Perhaps his worry made her anxious too, but then he smiled, ”You know your husband’s abilities. Last time, when the Qingxuan Sect Master suppressed the Lin Family, you handled it

well. This situation is also challenging for me, you can’t blame yourself.” Knowing Lin Mo was comforting her, Xia Mengdie lightly nodded, sighing silently, for if anything happened to Yang Chuxue, she too would feel guilty. After all, they had been married for years, and Yang Chuxue often mentioned wanting a grandson, yet she couldn’t fulfill

her responsibility as a wife.

”Alright, don’t overthink it, rest early. I’ll visit the martial arts school tomorrow,” Lin Mo said softly.

The name Five Elements Soul Condensing Pill suggests it requires materials containing the Five Elements to refine—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Common materials might not be hard to find, but finding pure Five Elements items is exceptionally difficult.

Such treasures are at least Mystic-grade materials, and both their price and the difficulty of finding them are immense. Furthermore, it’s uncertain if they can even be found on Earth. ”But no matter what, I won’t give up,” Lin Mo clenched his fists, vowing in his heart.

He stayed up all night.

The next day, the news of Lin Mo’s return spread throughout Huaxia. As the Master of one of the Four Great Martial Arts Schools, he naturally garnered public attention, and Lin Mo didn’t intend to hide himself. Now, in the era of Spiritual Energy resurgence, the existence of cultivators is no longer a secret.

”Hero’s return!”

”He returned a hero, saving three thousand lives!”

Major media and social networks were quickly dominated by news articles with similar headlines.
