Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Inside the small house, as the netherworld power quickly dissipated, Lin Mo exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, opened his eyes, and a pair of deep pupils emitted a brilliant light, which then suddenly retracted. A long sigh sounded in the small house, ”Ah, absorbed over a thousand pieces of pure Netherworld Stone, yet it’s still not enough?”

A total of one thousand one hundred pieces of pure Netherworld Stone were fully absorbed into his body, causing the purple flames behind him to appear dark purple, but there was still no second Purple Flame Mark, indicating he hadn’t entered the ranks of a Second Seal Nether Pattern Master.

”It shouldn’t be. According to the Cultivation Secret Technique I obtained, cultivating the Nether Pattern to the second layer requires at most the power of one thousand pure Netherworld Stones... but I feel a thousand stones is far from enough. Could it be related to the Black Snake Totem on my back?” Lin Mo furrowed his sword-like eyebrows, silently pondering in his heart.

Of course, although he didn’t succeed in advancing to a Second Seal Nether Pattern Master, after absorbing a thousand pieces of pure Netherworld Stone, the netherworld power in his body increased significantly, and his strength improved a lot. He should barely be able to activate the second layer of sealing skill. If he encounters a strongman of Intermediate Star System Level, even if he can’t win, the other party won’t be able to stop him from leaving.

With a sigh, Lin Mo stood up and withdrew the Xuanyuan Sword to Zhuo Lingxuan. Now, it’s impossible to exchange for a Nether Origin Stone since few people can hunt beasts to get the Nether Origin Stone. Moreover, in recent days, he has almost exchanged everything, and even if there are any left, there are very, very few people who have them.

”Huh!”

Lin Mo’s figure suddenly disappeared from its original place, and afterimages flickered as he quickly appeared on the street, his gaze looking towards the south of the Ruins City. A strong energy fluctuation spread out from that direction, though it seemed deliberately suppressed and very subtle. If it weren’t for his spiritual power being above the norm, he probably wouldn’t have sensed it.

”Did someone break through the cultivation realm? Or did they refine some kind of Star System level treasure? Otherwise, such a strong energy fluctuation wouldn’t occur.”

In this ruined city, there is no lack of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, aside from the two Star System Level strongmen Lin Mo had already detected. No one knows if there are other strongmen hidden in the Ruins City, or even a super strongman of Star Domain Level.

”Brother Lin Tanyu!”

A hurried voice suddenly sounded, and Lin Mo saw two figures rushing towards him. He was not unfamiliar with these two people; they are Hu Kuang’s companions, one tall and one short, the tall one named Liu Hong, and the short one named Wei Dao, both of High-level Star Sea Realm Cultivation.

”Brother Liu, Brother Wei.” Lin Mo cupped his hands in greeting.

”Brother Lin Tanyu, something happened...” With a worried expression between his eyebrows, Liu Hong hesitated to speak.

A trace of coldness flashed in Lin Mo’s eyes. These two appeared, yet he didn’t see Hu Kuang, indicating that Hu Kuang had probably encountered some trouble.

”What happened, Brother Liu, just speak directly,” Lin Mo lifted his sword-like eyebrows.

”People from the Five Primus Sect injured Brother Hu, trying to lure you out to save Brother Hu... and this time, the Five Primus Sect has brought a Star System Level Early Stage strongman,” Wei Dao sighed.

”Brother Hu only spoke a few words with me, yet the Five Primus Sect takes their anger out on Brother Hu because of me?” Lin Mo’s pupils flashed with cold intent. He said coldly, ”Let’s go, I want to see what the Five Primus Sect is capable of. Last time I spared that waste’s life, I didn’t expect him to dare provoke me again.”

Liu Hong and Wei Dao exchanged glances, their expressions also quite helpless. Hu Kuang is their friend, but the power of the Five Primus Sect is formidable, making them fearful, and they are simply no match for the Five Primus Sect.

Although Lin Mo has some skills, even facing a Star System Level Early Stage strongman, the gap in strength between them is still very large.

Alas, Liu Hong and Wei Dao could only sigh inwardly, hoping for some miracle to happen.

The three of them walked quickly, the street deserted, as people gathered in the square in dense crowds. Some stood on the ground, others hovered in the sky, and some stood on the eaves.

In the center of the square, a group of Five Primus Sect disciples wearing black and red uniforms stood at the center. The stone slabs on the ground in the center of the square had cracked from a fierce battle, and a burly man with coarse hair lay on the ground, looking battered and pale-faced, clearly having suffered a serious injury.

”Hehe, only you know that little brat, I want to see if he will come out to save you.” Wu Yu stepped on Hu Kuang, his expression extremely sinister, and said coldly, ”Blame him for offending our Five Primus Sect, hehe, is that little brat too cowardly to come out?”

Looking at the fallen Hu Kuang, many of the ’Free People’ cultivators around showed a hint of sympathy. In the current Ruins City, the greatest forces are the Hexagram Sect and the Five Primus Sect. As ’Free People,’ without cohesion or a backbone, those who offend the Five Primus Sect end up in such a tragic situation. As the saying goes, ”a rabbit dies and a fox mourns,” creatures feel sorrow for their dead kind.

”Kill me if you want, but I, Hu Kuang, will not let you humiliate me. If you don’t kill me today, I will definitely exact revenge,” Hu Kuang gritted his teeth, but unfortunately, his entire True Yuan dissipated, unable to gather strength for the time being, with no power to resist.

”Reckless? Hmph.” Wu Yu’s mouth curved into a cold arc, and he kicked Hu Kuang hard on the waist, causing him to fly like a cannonball, crashing into a stone pillar before bouncing to the ground. The pillar cracked with several lines upon impact.

”If you want revenge on me, why involve others?” A chilling voice suddenly came from the crowd. Two columns of people parted, and in the passage between them, a young man with black hair and eyes walked forward with a longsword on his back.

Wu Yu’s eyes narrowed instantly, cold light twinkled in his pupils, and then it turned extremely venomous. The enmity from that day had always been kept in his heart, not fading over time but becoming more intense with resentment towards Lin Mo.

”Little brat, you finally show up. I thought you were going to hide like a cowardly turtle,” Wu Yu licked his lips, his expression sinister like a fierce ghost.

”Who are you calling a little brat?” Lin Mo smiled blandly, walking to the center of the square.

”I’m calling you a little brat,” Wu Yu snorted coldly. Now that several strongmen of the Five Primus Sect had come out, he had sufficient confidence, naturally unafraid of Lin Mo.

”So you’re the little brat?” Lin Mo laughed heartily.

A moment later, Wu Yu suddenly realized that Lin Mo was mocking him, his face taking on a slight purple hue, while many of the onlookers around were also stifling their laughter, not daring to let it out.

”Stop boasting here. Now kneel and kowtow to admit your mistakes and hand over all the Nether Stones to me, and maybe I’ll let you die a bit more comfortably.” Wu Yu gritted his teeth, saying viciously.

As soon as Wu Yu’s words fell, his expression suddenly changed, and a thick purple air enveloped him. Wu Yu found himself trapped in a quagmire, unable to move an inch, and even found it extremely difficult to mobilize the True Yuan within his body.

Pong!

With a dull thud, Lin Mo waved his hand from afar, transforming True Yuan into a handprint that flew at Wu Yu, sending him flying backward. Wu Yu lay on the ground, his face swollen black and purple, spitting out a mouthful of bloody teeth.

Though both were strongmen with High-level Star Sea Realm Cultivation, Lin Mo effortlessly slapped Wu Yu away, leaving many nearby people with shock in their eyes. This also made them understand why Lin Mo had the confidence to face the strongmen of the Five Primus Sect.

”Your Excellency has formidable strength, but beating my junior right in front of me is too arrogant, isn’t it?” A composed voice rose from behind the Five Primus Sect disciples, and a young man slowly stepped forward.
