152: The enjoyment of fighting

The enormous skeleton floated eerily in the air.

Its hollow eyes occasionally glowed green.

Lin Mu's words had clearly hit a nerve regarding its condition.

However, the skeleton let out a chilling laugh.

"Heh heh... Now I am the Primal God, and the Primal God is me."

"Originally, once it absorbed enough divine power, it would revive."

"But your arrival has interrupted my plan."

"No matter, as long as I devour you, this body can revive immediately."

As the skeleton's words fell, its massive figure suddenly vanished from its spot.

Lin Mu, seeing this, dared not be careless.

This was his first time battling a Primal God.

He couldn't afford to be anything but cautious.

He quietly condensed a shield of Primal God Power around his body.

Just as he finished this action, he felt as if his body had been struck by a planet.

The immense impact sent his body flying uncontrollably.

Lin Mu exerted all his divine power, flying dozens of miles before he finally stopped himself.

Lin Mu couldn't help but be startled.

He hadn't expected such a massive skeleton to possess such incredible speed.

He hadn't even seen when it had appeared before him.

If he hadn't prepared his defenses beforehand, that single blow would have been enough to injure him.

Since Hancheng City, Lin Mu had effortlessly crushed every opponent he faced.

This was the first time anyone had posed a threat to him.

Despite this, Lin Mu felt no apprehension.

Instead, an uncontrollable excitement surged within him.

This was a feeling he had never experienced before.

He let out a long roar, tilting his head back.

Then, he charged at the skeleton with a loud laugh.

Lin Mu didn't use any techniques.

He simply relied on brute force, smashing his fist towards the skeleton.

The skeleton, seeing Lin Mu intended to clash with it in terms of physical strength, couldn't help but sneer, "The body of a Primal God is indestructible."

"Even those God Emperors were helpless against it."

"They could only seal it here."

"How laughable that you overestimate yourself, trying to contend with such an existence in strength. Haha!"

"Today, I'll show you the terror of a Primal God."

As the skeleton mocked, its body transformed into another state.

A layer of bone shield grew on its chest, and a white bone spike protruded from its forehead.

Just then, Lin Mu's attack arrived.

The skeleton surprisingly didn't dodge, taking Lin Mu's punch directly with its chest.

The fist striking the skeleton's chest produced a sound like metal clashing.

The enormous sound made the ears of the other spectators tingle.

And Lin Mu's full-force punch...

Only made the skeleton retreat a few steps; the bone shield on its chest remained completely undamaged.

The skeleton dismissively patted its chest with a hand.

It said with a mocking tone, "Is that all the strength you have? You disappoint me greatly."

"This soft punch isn't even worthy of tickling me."

Lin Mu, though mocked by the skeleton, showed no anger.

He chuckled lightly and said, "Oh, if that's the case, then take another punch from me."

The skeleton's defense was astonishing.

Lin Mu understood that relying solely on his physical strength would make it difficult to break its defense.

So, for the next punch...

Lin Mu condensed Primal God Power onto his fist.

His body, like a bolt of lightning, once again charged towards the skeleton.

The wind hadn't stirred, but he had already arrived.

Lin Mu's speed this time had surpassed what the human eye could perceive.

The skeleton likewise failed to clearly see Lin Mu's trajectory.

This time, it also sensed that Lin Mu's punch was not simple.

It bent its arms and blocked in front of itself, adding another layer of defense.

Just as it raised its arms...

It felt a soul-piercing power whistling towards it.

The divine soul of the demonic man, possessing the skeleton, felt as if it would be knocked out by this punch.

The skeleton's arms, blocking in front, shattered inch by inch under Lin Mu's punch.

Lin Mu's fist, its momentum undiminished, then heavily struck the skeleton's chest.

It directly smashed a crack into the bone shield on its chest.

The skeleton's body, unable to withstand the immense impact, flew backward.

Like a kite with a broken string, it was sent tumbling.

Lin Mu, seeing this, did not stop his actions.

His body flashed again, swiftly catching up to the skeleton.

The skeleton, seeing Lin Mu in hot pursuit, hastily condensed another massive bone shield in front of itself in an instant.

Lin Mu unleashed a barrage of punches.

The newly formed bone shield only lasted a few breaths before it was shattered by Lin Mu.

Although it only held for a few breaths, it was enough for the skeleton.

Its previously broken arms had already recovered as good as new.

The crack on its chest had also vanished.

This terrifying regenerative ability even made Lin Mu secretly click his tongue in amazement.

The skeleton was left battered and bruised by Lin Mu's combo.

It raised its arm, covered in bone spikes, and swung it at Lin Mu.

Lin Mu, seeing this, met it with his own fist.

Both of their speeds were incredibly fast.

For a moment, the sky was filled with the sounds of their fists and feet clashing.

Their figures constantly shifted positions.

Zhang Daoling watched the two battling in the sky.

He couldn't help but recall what the Left Emissary had said.

"The terror of the God Lord is beyond your imagination."

So this was the true power of the God Lord.

Facing such a God Lord, let alone fighting him...

Even the aftershocks of their battle could kill him a hundred times over.

And the others, released by Lin Mu from the World in the Palm, all watched the battle in the sky with wide eyes.

Even though they were God Monarchs and influential figures in the outside world, this was the first time they had witnessed such a battle.

The two combatants, just by using their physical strength, were capable of destroying a planet.

Just look at the Divine Forbidden Mountain before them.

Not only did it have various restrictions, but it also had a mysterious heaven and earth pressure suppressing divine power.

Even so, it had no effect on the two of them.

The aftershocks from their battle leveled the surrounding mountain peaks.

They had now retreated hundreds of miles away from the battle zone.

If it weren't for their fear of Lin Mu settling scores later, they would have already fled.

Lin Mu at this moment had entered a state of self-forgetfulness.

He simply kept throwing punches, guided by his body's instincts.

His body already bore multiple wounds.

And the skeleton was not much better than Lin Mu.

Even with its terrifying regenerative abilities, its entire body was covered in cracks, both large and small.

At this point, it had already developed the intention to retreat.

This person before it was simply a madman.

Like a tireless war beast.

No matter how strong its attacks were, they couldn't make this person retreat an inch.

Suddenly, it let out a strange shriek.

Its massive body instantly shrank to adult size.

And its smaller body seemed even faster than before.

Lin Mu, seeing this, thought it was another new battle state for the skeleton.

To his surprise, the skeleton, relying on its superluminal speed, turned and fled into the distance.

This scene momentarily caught Lin Mu off guard.

Just as the skeleton's figure was about to disappear, Lin Mu decisively activated the Eye of the Primal God.

"Freeze!"

As Lin Mu's words left his mouth, the skeleton, which had fled far away, was frozen in mid-air, unable to move.
