Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme
Chapter 980 - 973: So That's How It Is
At this moment, Lin Mo's Divine Thought was like a fish caught in a net, completely unable to break through it.
Moreover, that sturdy Demon Blade was also being corroded by the black mist.
"There's only one last method left!" Just as the black-robed man was slowly devouring Lin Mo's Divine Thought, a black iron block appeared in the dark Sea of Consciousness, moving slowly towards him.
Possessing an endless sea of darkness, Lin Mo's Divine Thought was fiercely clashing with the soul of the black-robed man.
"What's happening..."
"What is that?"
A vast and astonishing gravitational pull suddenly tugged at the black-robed man's soul, revealing a face of ferocity and madness, and that was precisely the irregular black iron block exuding the incredible attraction.
This black iron moved slowly, but the attraction it contained was like a black hole, constantly drawing in Divine Thoughts and Power of Soul.
"You madman, what exactly is this black iron block? Both of our souls are being sucked in." The black-robed man roared.
The black iron block was exactly the irregular black iron that Lin Mo received from the Hongmen Ancestor, possessing an amazing ability to absorb Divine Thought and soul. In the Cultivation Room, Lin Mo had already made the final preparations. If he could escape, he naturally wouldn't use the black iron block.
After all, putting the black iron block into the Sea of Consciousness was extremely dangerous for him, as the iron block was likely to swallow his own Divine Thought completely.
But this was Lin Mo's final trump card. If the black-robed man forcibly attempted Body Seizing, he could only use this black iron block as a last resistance.
"No..."
"Madman..."
The black-robed man continually screamed and roared, desperately trying to escape Lin Mo's Sea of Consciousness, but the black iron block behind him, like a vacuum cleaner, with the astonishing gravitational force, pulled the black-robed man's soul closer to the iron block.
"It's now..." Lin Mo's heart and mind united as the Divine Thought transformed into a blood-red dagger, bursting with an incredible power and shooting forward into the endless darkness.
"I... I will kill you..." The black-robed man let out one final despairing cry, then was instantly absorbed into the black iron block.
"Charge!"
Lin Mo disregarded the black-robed man's screams, for if his Divine Thought could not escape the Sea of Consciousness now, the only result was being absorbed by the black iron block. Therefore, if it wasn't the most perilous moment, he would never think of using the black iron block.
Swoosh
Inside the Prison Tower.
Lin Mo stood dazed in the Void, a red line appeared on his forehead, and instantly burst out from his brow.
"That was close... that damned guy almost made me perish in there too."
Lin Mo managed to escape the black iron's gravitational pull for two reasons.
The first reason was that the black-robed man's energy was much stronger than his Divine Thought, so most of the black iron's attraction was naturally directed towards him.
The second reason was Lin Mo cultivated the Ancient Demon Technique, condensing Divine Sense. Despite it being relatively small, he could condense it into a solid form like an embroidered needle and accelerated speed, thus narrowly escaping the Sea of Consciousness. Soon, under the control of the red line, he removed the Space Ring from his hand, distributing a thread of Divine Thought to control the Space Ring, injecting it into the Sea of Consciousness and immediately storing the black iron block inside. Of course, the distributed Divine Thought was also swiftly absorbed by the black iron block.
After completing all these actions, the red Divine Thought was injected back into the Sea of Consciousness.
Soon, Lin Mo's previously lifeless eyes regained shine, and his forehead was now filled with dense sweat.
Lin Mo took out the ring from the Sea of Consciousness and wore it again on his right index finger.
"Let me out..."
"I will kill you..."
"Bastard... I will definitely refine your soul into ashes."
Lin Mo furrowed his brows, hearing the black-robed man's roaring voice from within the black iron block inside the ring.
"Oh, you're not dead yet?" Lin Mo was slightly surprised; he thought the black iron block had swallowed the black-robed man after absorbing him. Unexpectedly, it only imprisoned him within the black iron block.
"Kid, I advise you to let me out quickly, or once I'm out, I will grind your bones and burn your soul into ashes, never to be reincarnated," the black-robed man gnashing his teeth, voice full of extreme anger.
He never expected that he, a cultivator of Golden Core Stage, would be outwitted by a creature of Middle Innate.
"If you can come out now, you would have done so already. Stop shouting. Do you believe I'll make your soul vanish?" Lin Mo said coldly.
The black-robed man finally fell silent in the ring.
"I know you want to seize my body, but unfortunately you failed. However, you are now captured by my Magic Treasure, there is still a chance to seize other people's bodies." Lin Mo's eyes flashed with a gleam.
The black-robed man was silent for a long time, then said, "Will you really let me out?"
"That depends on my mood. Tell me everything that's going on here, maybe I'll be in a good mood and let you out." Lin Mo laughed loudly.
Soon, the black-robed man told Lin Mo everything about himself. His real name was Zhen Yuanzi, he was the most talented genius in the Nine Stars Sect across a millennium, and the most cherished disciple of the Star Sect Leader.
The Nine Stars Sect's residence was now occupied by the Three Great Martial Arts Schools on the mountain.
"In my day, I was unstoppable, countless geniuses fell to my hand." The black-robed man's words carried a hint of arrogance.
"Then why were you imprisoned in the Prison Tower?"
Lin Mo asked curiously.
"I was locked in the Prison Tower by my Master. Originally, I had a childhood sweetheart junior sister. We were deeply in love, planning to become Dual Cultivation Couple. But my Master needed Dual Cultivation to practice a Cultivation Technique and thus married my junior sister..."
"So melodramatic?"
Lin Mo widened his eyes and laughed, "Then what happened?" "My junior sister and I still had feelings, so we secretly got together when my Master was in seclusion. Unexpectedly, Master found out, killed my junior sister in anger and imprisoned me in the Prison Tower, promising that if I could reach the nineteenth layer he would let me go. Unfortunately, I waited three thousand years, but he never did, and my physical body was damaged in battle, leaving me only to survive in soul form."
Listening to Zhen Yuanzi's story, Lin Mo felt some pity for the man, he must have been a top genius, or else greening his Master wouldn't have spared him. Clearly, Master valued him greatly.
"The Nine Stars Sect no longer exists, who will let you out?" Lin Mo shook his head and sighed.
"The Nine Stars Sect is no more?" Zhen Yuanzi's tone had a complex emotion.
"Spiritual Energy has vanished from Earth, many powerful sects have probably left Earth, only some weak Cultivation Sects remain on Earth," Lin Mo explained casually, of course this was Lin Mo's own guess.
