NOVEL NEXT Chapter 408
Chapter 408: The Grand Priestess is Frightened, Stepping on the War Demon God!
“Lord of the Divine really understands the way of the sword.”
After witnessing Wei Zhuang, in his moment of enlightenment, use a stone pillar as a sword to destroy one arm of the War Demon God, the Grand Priestess looked at Li Mo with immense surprise.
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess, however, displayed little astonishment.
In Fei Yan’s memory, since getting to know Li Mo, he had used a sword only once—when he killed Yan Dan and chased the giant of the Mohist Sect to the Mechanical City.
He trapped the entire Mohist Sect inside, preventing them from coming out.
But, she couldn’t break in either.
Later, it was Li Mo who took a sword from Zhang Han and cleaved off half a mountain peak, blocking the river and giving the soldiers a foothold to open the Mechanical City.
“I don’t understand.”
Li Mo calmly shook his head.
The Grand Priestess, however, was unconvinced: “If you don’t understand the way of the sword, how could you guide a swordsman?”
Li Mo remained silent.
He truly didn’t understand the way of the sword.
Compared to professional sword practitioners like Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, he was certainly lacking.
However, his theoretical knowledge was impressive!
I provide the theory, and the sword genius practices it—doesn’t that work?
As it turns out, this theory was indeed effective!
Not just effective, but surprisingly so.
Li Mo believed that Wei Zhuang’s understanding of the sword would greatly improve from here on out.
Wei Zhuang’s progress made Li Mo quite happy.
After all, he was the backbone of the Liu Sha.
To the Grand Priestess, Li Mo’s silence took on a new meaning.
The Lord of the Divine was not just powerful; he was humble too.
What’s wrong with having more wives for such a man?
The fallen War Demon God quickly stood up again.
Although Wei Zhuang had destroyed one of its arms, for this lifeless, cold machine, such an injury merely made its movements a bit awkward—not significant damage at all!
In contrast, Wei Zhuang was different.
Having used the ultimate skill Eight Directions Convergence with all his might, even though he had removed an arm of the War Demon God, he himself had sustained internal injuries.
He was now unable to use Eight Directions Convergence again for a while.
Meanwhile, Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess had been worn down under the hands of the Chiyou Demon Spirit.
The two sisters could block their opponent’s attacks temporarily but posed no real threat.
It was at this moment that Li Mo threw the Imperial Seal high into the air.
The Imperial Seal landed perfectly in the underground cave.
The Wandering Spirits that had been surging from the cave immediately came to a halt, like a water faucet being shut off.
The Bronze Door acted like a barrier.
All the Wandering Spirits on this side were cleared away, while the ones on the other side instinctively feared the light radiating from the Imperial Seal, not daring to advance.
They could only howl ineffectively at the Bronze Door!
With all the Wandering Spirits from outside eradicated, Li Mo no longer needed to hold the Imperial Seal to activate the National Fortune inside.
The Imperial Seal alone was enough to suppress these Wandering Spirits, preventing them from emerging from the underground world.
“Chiyou, it’s time for our final battle!”
Li Mo stepped forward, exuding intense battle intent.
Victory means peace for the world.
Defeat means eternal doom.
Only one of them could leave Loulan.
He had no intention of fleeing, nor could he afford to do so.
If the Chiyou Demon Spirit escaped Loulan, he wouldn’t be able to save himself either.
“Do you think you’re worthy of battling me?”
The Chiyou Demon Spirit said defiantly, but his face showed no trace of disdain.
“Worthiness can only be proven through battle!”
Li Mo showed no intention of retreating, stepping forward steadily.
The Chiyou Demon Spirit roared in fury: “You think a little brat from three thousand years later can stop me?”
The War Demon God seemed to receive an order at that moment.
It lunged toward Li Mo like a titan.
With its remaining arm outstretched, it aimed to grab Li Mo and crush him into oblivion!
But Li Mo didn’t retreat—instead, he leapt forward as well.
In midair, the giant hand of the War Demon God came crashing down.
Bang! “Be careful!”
The Grand Priestess shouted, her heart in her throat.
Yet Li Mo showed no intention of dodging.
The Grand Priestess could only watch in horror as his figure merged with the massive palm of the War Demon God.
“No!”
The Grand Priestess turned pale, unable to believe what she was seeing, covering her mouth in disbelief.
How could a flesh-and-blood body compete against the bronze fist of the War Demon God?
Li Mo didn’t even emit a scream before vanishing inside the giant’s hand.
“Don’t… you all, go save him!”
Seeing Li Mo’s figure disappear, the Grand Priestess instinctively thought he had been captured by the War Demon God.
She urgently pleaded with Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess to take action.
Outside of Li Mo, their strength was the highest here.
If Li Mo was in trouble, how could the Grand Priestess even dare to plead?
The two had already charged ahead.
Yet now the sisters stood still, clearly having witnessed something the Grand Priestess hadn’t.
“You’re too slow!”
Suddenly, Li Mo’s voice echoed from above.
The Grand Priestess froze at the familiar sound and instinctively looked upward.
To her shock, Li Mo, whom she had seen moments ago captured by the War Demon God, was now perched atop its head!
Not only had Li Mo avoided capture, but he had also quickly maneuvered to the top of theWar Demon God, effortlessly pulling out the Shark Tooth Sword from its body!
His speed was so incredible that someone like the Grand Priestess couldn’t even follow his movements.
So she mistakenly believed that Li Mo had fallen into the clutches of the War Demon God!
While the War Demon God was indeed indestructible and immensely powerful, it had its obvious drawbacks.
Being excessively heavy caused it to be slow.
At this moment, Li Mo, clad in a golden robe, hair flying, held the Shark Tooth Sword, and stood upon the War Demon God like a divine spirit descending to the mortal realm, emanating awe and superiority.
The War Demon God noticed the human on top of its head.
It reached out one hand to grab, but it couldn’t quite reach its own crown.
Its body twisted and turned, attempting to shake Li Mo off.
But Li Mo remained firmly planted above, as though his feet had taken root.
No matter how the War Demon God thrashed wildly, he stood utterly undeterred!
