94: Chapter 94 A Demon-like Boy

The battlefield roared with thunder, and dust danced, as if playing a mournful war song for the arrival of the Thunder God!

Liu Jianguo widened his eyes, his gaze locked onto the youth, not daring to shift it even an inch.

He did not fear death, but he wanted to know who this person was before death arrived.

The fierce wind blew the youth's bangs into a frenzy, and finally, he saw the youth's eyes.

Golden lightning flowed within his pupils, like two masses of molten lava dredged from the depths of an ancient thunder pool, filled with endless heat and tyranny!

Just one look was enough to make one feel as if their soul would be scorched.

Boom—

A deafening beast roar sounded, and the earth trembled three times.

The fallen Rock Beast flipped itself upright, its forelimbs violently pounding the earth, kicking up dust and creating a massive lotus-shaped cloud that sent a shockwave blowing everything around it away!

The sudden, massive commotion caught Liu Jianguo's attention, and like the other soldiers still fighting bloody battles, everyone turned their heads to look at the source of the disturbance.

However, the next second.

The surroundings went quiet, because the source of the commotion could no longer make even the slightest sound.

The youth, dressed in a pitch-black combat uniform, had appeared out of thin air above the ruins, stepping on a giant beast's head that was still spurting blood; the owner of the head was none other than that Tier 4 Lord!

A deathly silence, like a tidal wave, instantly submerged the entire battlefield.

The surrounding soldiers' breathing stalled at this moment, their hands unconsciously stopping their actions, as if they had forgotten that they were currently surrounded by the beast tide.

The youth slowly lifted his head, his bangs blown aside by the lightning, revealing his entire face.

It was an excessively young face, with lightning flowing from his pupils and meandering beneath his skin; every pulse caused fine arcs of electricity to ripple through the surrounding air, exuding a heart-palpitating majesty.

"Don't space out, the battle isn't over yet!"

The youth's voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap, drilling directly into everyone's ears.

The others snapped out of their shock, and the fear on their faces was instantly replaced by ecstasy.

"Jiangcheng... Jiangcheng is saved!"

Lin Mo's appearance was like a beam of light suddenly shining in the darkness, pulling them back from the edge of death.

Liu Jianguo was so emotional that he covered his face and wept bitterly; his throat felt as if it were being gripped by an invisible hand, and his heart was pounding wildly in his chest, almost breaking his ribs.

The tidal wave of mental pressure from before vanished instantly, and he felt as if his entire being had been liberated.

No, it hadn't vanished; it was because of the arrival of this youth that he saw a glimmer of hope.

From the ruins at the edge of the battlefield came a faint hiss; a surviving Tier 3 Demon Wolf crawled out from the rubble, one of its legs broken, yet it was still baring its fangs, wanting to take the opportunity to flee.

Lin Mo just swept his hand casually, and the blade light instantly pierced through the Demon Wolf's skull.

The Demon Wolf didn't even have time to scream before it collapsed straight to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the remaining two Rock Beasts finally snapped out of it, letting out a heaven-shaking roar in unison.

The youth's strength seemed to exceed their understanding, and their scarlet pupils were filled with astonishment and fury.

But after making eye contact with those lava-like eyes, their voices suddenly weakened.

It was the instinct of their bodies driving them to lower their heads.

That shivering from deep within their genes, that fear carved into their bloodlines, made their originally sky-high roars turn into the whimpers of injured wild dogs.

One of the Rock Beasts subconsciously took a step back.

The other one wanted to retreat too, but it held back.

After a moment of hesitation, it opened its mouth and let out another roar, the sound carrying the hysterical madness of this Rock Beast.

Because their leader was being stepped on by this human before them, and this was the greatest blasphemy against their kind!

The next second, the two Rock Beasts violently dug their thick limbs into the ground.

Beneath their granite-like rough skin, muscles surged and knotted; their heavy hooves slammed onto the ruins, causing rubble to tumble down with a rustling sound, and the shockwave forced the surrounding soldiers and surviving fierce beasts to retreat repeatedly.

The two massive bodies, shrouded in dust and rubble, charged fiercely toward Lin Mo like two out-of-control heavy tanks!

Wherever they passed, the ground was plowed into two deep trenches, and the air was struck, emitting sharp sonic booms.

Lin Mo's lava-like eyes narrowed slightly, the lightning around his body becoming increasingly dense; the lightning patterns beneath his skin were like living dragons, meandering and emitting ear-piercing sonic booms as they moved, dyeing his outline into a golden hue, like a Demon God from hell!

"In the way."

Lin Mo's voice was calm, without a ripple, and the blade of zhan chao was instantly wrapped in a sheet of golden lightning; the leaping lightning caused fine arcs of electricity to ripple through the surrounding air, and the blade began to exude a heart-palpitating majesty.

The moment his words fell, his figure had already transformed into a beam of lightning, charging toward the two Rock Beasts.

Blade light flashed, and the golden lightning, carrying sharp blade energy like a Milky Way hanging upside down, slashed straight onto the head of the Rock Beast on the left.

"Crack—!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out; the Rock Beast's scales, which it took pride in as a defense, split open like fragile porcelain, creating a huge gap. The lightning followed the gap into the Rock Beast's cranial cavity, instantly exploding and turning its brains into mush.

The massive body paused abruptly, then slammed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a sky full of dust and shaking the surrounding soldiers until they couldn't stand firm.

Seeing this, the other giant beast roared and changed direction, its thick tail whipping toward Lin Mo's back with a gust of wind; the tail was covered in sharp bone spurs, and if it were struck, even steel would likely be shattered into pieces.

However, the next second!

Lin Mo's figure actually vanished into thin air from its line of sight.

"Roar~~~~"

The only remaining Rock Beast let out an impatient and uneasy roar.

Where is the human? Where did he go?

The cheers of the surrounding soldiers were also choked in their throats, their pupils shrinking, their faces written with disbelief!

The remaining beast herd stood frozen in place, their gazes fixed tightly on the Rock Beast's high-raised head...

Because that figure shimmering with golden lightning had, at some unknown point, already stepped onto the top of the Rock Beast's head!

"Aurora Overlapping Blades, activate!"

Golden blade light cut through the sky, tearing the air apart.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

"Crack—"

The blade light swept past.

The headless corpse maintained its forward-charging posture, running for more than a dozen meters before crashing to the ground.

[Ding~ Killed Tier 4 Late-stage Lord Rock Beast X3, slaughter value +12000!]

Lin Mo glanced at the system prompt, sheathed his blade, and leaped down, his movements elegant and calm, as if he had just done a trivial thing.

Silence across the entire field!

Everyone lost the ability to speak at this moment.

The beast herd that had swarmed into the city finally snapped out of it, and fear instantly consumed them; they turned to flee one after another, but were swept by Lin Mo's cold gaze.

"Want to run?"

The voice was not loud, but it clearly spread across the entire battlefield!
