Chapter 33: The Bloody Knife's Murderous Intent
Two days passed in a flash, and the room in the inn that Lin Mo booked was about to expire. He put all the things he needed to bring, including clothes, food and water, into the space bracelet. Since the space bracelet was in a vacuum state, he did not have to worry about the food being destroyed. After touching the blood knife at his waist, he walked towards the underground cave ten miles south of Jinyang City.
It was only quarter past three in the morning and the sky was just getting light. There was no one on the streets of Jinyang City. Lin Mo looked at the street which was both familiar and unfamiliar, and said with some emotion: After finishing the underground palace, I will leave. This is also where I started.
Soon Lin Mo arrived at the location where the underground palace was opened. He saw some figures from afar. The ones he could recognize were Liu Emei and Han Xiao. There were three people dressed as young masters beside them, and behind them were six warriors. One of them had a pale face and looked extremely weak. It was Li Tian from the Seven Families of Tianmu Domain. Li Tian was like a hungry wolf that smelled meat, circling around Liu Emei trying to please her.
Liu Emei looked as if she wanted to keep strangers away. Han Xiao beside her, on the other hand, remained silent and looked much colder. Although he still had some fascination for Liu Emei in his eyes, he did not show any expression towards Li Tian, who looked like a lecher beside her.
Li Tian also knew that there was a huge gap between his family and the Yuenu Sword Society, but he could not help being attracted to Liu Emei. Although the two young men beside him were also looking at Liu Emei with fascination, at least they behaved very rationally. They were not like Li Tian, who was like a peacock spreading its tail, and no one knew what he was showing off.
Lin Mo took a glance and knew that it must be Liu Emei who was subconsciously using illusion again. It was obvious that Li Tian's mental strength was too weak, and he was too obsessed with wine and women, so he was easily fooled by Liu Emei and couldn't tell the directions. The two warriors behind Li Tian also discovered this, but after reminding their young master, it didn't have much effect.
The two friends beside Li Tian became much more sober after a while, and hurriedly took the four warriors beside them to hide far away, and did not even dare to look at Liu Emei. Some of the surrounding casual practitioners were also veterans in the martial arts world. They naturally knew that the illusion and swordsmanship of the Yuenu Sword Society were in sync, so they all stood around and watched the show.
As a result, Liu Emei, Han Xiao, and Li Tian stood in front of the entrance to the underground palace with two followers, and the rest of the people stood in twos and threes farther away. A large vacuum zone appeared in the best position in the middle. Lin Mo didn't care about these and walked forward directly, wanting to see what the gate of the underground palace looked like.
When Lin Mo passed by Liu Emei, Liu Emei deliberately looked at Lin Mo a few times and blinked, but Lin Mo was focused on the entrance to the underground palace and ignored Liu Emei's behavior. At this time, Han Xiao also looked at Lin Mo a few times, but also did not speak. It was as if his previous hatred for Lin Mo had never happened, but when Lin Mo passed by Han Xiao, he felt his flash of murderous intent and hostility.
Lin Mo still didn't care and continued to walk forward. However, Li Tian next to Liu Emei couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped Lin Mo and said, "Where are you from, kid?" After saying that, he blinked at Liu Emei, as if to say, look at how powerful I am.
Lin Mo stopped and said, "Jinyang City."
After hearing this, Li Tian thought that this person was not a disciple of a big force, nor was he from the Hu family. As for Jinyang City, it was a well-known dilapidated small city with the lowest overall strength. He suddenly became bold and said, "Boy, can you please say hello to your young master Li when you see him? Do you have eyes?" After saying that, he gestured to the two warriors who had reached the perfect stage of marrow refining behind him, and then the three of them surrounded Lin Mo.
Other people nearby were all there to watch the show, and no one wanted to uphold justice. After all, this kind of thing was not uncommon in the underworld. Some people even bet that the new guy would soon kneel down and beg for mercy.
Lin Mo slowly raised his head and looked at Li Tian. Li Tian's heart skipped a beat when he saw Lin Mo's emotionless eyes. He was a little scared, but soon the fear turned into shame and anger. He did this to win a smile from the beauty of the Yue Female Sword Club and to let the beauty see his influence in the Tianmu Region. So he said to Lin Mo with a bold heart:
"You kid dare to look directly at your Master Li? Now kowtow to him a few times before you cripple your legs. Otherwise, I will kill you without even going into the underground palace." After saying that, he instructed the two warriors beside him to prepare to take action.
Lin Mo looked at Li Tian again and said word by word: "Why are you seeking death?"
Li Tian was furious after hearing this. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt a strong murderous intent coming at him. At the same time, the two people beside him were also enveloped by this murderous intent. His thoughts came to a pause for a moment. This was because Lin Mo understood the murderous intent of its founder Du Sha from the swordsmanship of the Blood Killing Sword. There was no hesitation in the murderous intent, and the moment the sword came out, death would befall him.
The three of them seemed to see a sea of blood submerging their bodies, with only three heads sticking out of the sea of blood. Then a pair of huge eyes looked at them, without the slightest emotion in these eyes. As the saying goes, Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. The more emotionless the eyes, the more frightened they were, because the unknown is the source of all fear.
Lin Mo used the Zhenhai power to instantly draw out the bloody knife and performed the Blood Killing Sword Technique. The bright purple knife light flashed and disappeared.
Lin Mo put away his knife, walked around the three men and continued to walk towards the gate of the underground palace. At this time, three heads behind him flew high in the air, blood gushed out, and three corpses slowly fell to the ground. The expressions on the faces of the three flying people were extremely frightened, as if they had encountered the most terrifying thing in the world.
There was silence all around, no one dared to say a word, not even to breathe. After Lin Mo walked into the underground cave, the people around him began to talk to each other in a low voice. Liu Emei looked at Lin Mo's back with a serious expression. Although this knife was not as strong as the last one she used against herself, it was much more powerful than the twelfth style of Su Nu that she had used with all her strength.
Han Xiao gritted his teeth and said nothing. He had now confirmed that the person fighting Liu Emei was Lin Mo. It was a pity that it had only been such a short time. How could Lin Mo be so strong? If he fought him one-on-one with his strength, he would most likely die. Then the expression on his face slowly faded, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Although Lin Mo's move seemed casual, he actually used the strongest move he could master besides the Sword Heart. First, he used the Soul Transferring Technique to transmit the unique murderous intent of the Blood Killing Sword to the three people, and then he used the Blood Killing Sword Technique with all his strength.
Lin Mo's understanding of the Blood Killing Sword became deeper and deeper. After all, this kind of killing skill should be more powerful the shorter the time it is used, so this first sword is also the strongest one. In addition, the opponent underestimated him, which allowed him to successfully kill three people with this sword.
At this time, Lin Mo had already walked to the gate of the underground palace. After touching it, he found that the material was extremely special and there was no keyhole on it. It can be seen that although the pair of black and white keys he got were the key to the blood sacrifice, they would not be used for a while. After pushing it, he found that it did not move at all, but he could sense the information coming from this door:
The conditions for the blood sacrifice have been met, and the gate will be opened at noon. The highest realm requirement is the perfection of the marrow refining stage.
Lin Mo guessed that this door might be a powerful object in itself, and someone would come to take it away at the end of the underground palace, so he stopped thinking about it, walked up from the cave, and waited for the door to open.
