Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 637

The blue light curtain suddenly began to crack layer by layer, and finally turned into specks of light and dissipated into nothingness.

In the center of the light curtain, Liu Shui'er was standing there quietly. At her feet, the female dark beast was lying motionless on the ground. Apart from wet hair, there was no sign of any wound on its body.

Lin Mo's spiritual sense only took a quick glance and he realized that the dark beast had lost any signs of life.

"It is indeed a superb skill. The power of Brother Liu's water-attributed magical power is truly breathtaking. It is even better than what I displayed that day."

The shock on Shi Kun's face gradually faded, and he continued to praise.

"Brother Shi, why do you have to praise me? Brother Shi is extremely strong, and everyone saw the fight with Fellow Daoist Lin that day. My little tricks are naturally incomparable."

Liu Shuier raised her hand and sucked the ferocious dark beast into her hand, saying with a smile.

"Ha! If Brother Liu's magical powers are just small tricks, then aren't my methods worth mentioning? Fellow Daoist Lin, now the three of us have obtained the skin of the dark beast, and you are the only one who has not completed the task. And as we go deeper into the forest, the chance of encountering a group of dark beasts will become greater and greater. Fellow Daoist Lin must be prepared as soon as possible."

Shi Kun suddenly turned around and said to Lin Mo meaningfully.

"Brother Shi, don't worry. Lin has made up his mind and will never joke with his own life."

Lin Mo responded with a faint smile.

Three days later, beside a winding stream in the Dark Beast Forest, a giant dark beast, whose size far exceeded that of an ordinary dark beast, was tightly wrapped in a layer of green light curtain.

Lin Mo hovered above the light curtain, his eyes slightly closed, and his hands quickly made hand gestures, as if he was activating some mysterious spell, causing the green light curtain to flicker between bright and dark.

The cloaked woman and Shi Kun stood on one side of the light curtain. One had a flickering look in his eyes, while the other had a frown on his face. Both were shocked.

Not only was this azure light curtain as thick as a solid object, preventing them from seeing what was going on inside, but any spiritual consciousness that touched its surface would be ruthlessly bounced back.

This is the Chunli Sword Formation carefully arranged by Lin Mo!

Lin Mo, who was floating in the air, suddenly raised his eyebrows, stopped the magic spell in his hand abruptly, gently waved one sleeve downwards, and whispered "restraint".

In an instant, the green light curtain glowed and instantly transformed into dozens of flying swords shining with green light. Each sword was about several feet long and hovered in the air, swaying slightly.

Lin Mo just made a casual move, and all the flying swords shrank to a few inches in length amidst the flashing green light, and then rushed down and all sank into his body.

Under the ground originally covered by the sword formation, the huge dark beast had already bled from all seven orifices and died on the spot.

Seeing this scene, the cloaked woman and Shi Kun could not help but look at each other, and they could read a hint of deep fear in each other's eyes.

Lin Mo caught a glimpse of this scene, but he slowly landed with a normal expression, his feet firmly placed next to the corpse of the dark beast.

"My two fellow Taoists, now that we have the skin of the dark beast, we can move forward into the depths of the forest without any worries." Lin Mo said to the other two with a relaxed smile.

"We have already obtained the animal skin, so there is nothing to worry about. However, it is really surprising that Brother Lin's strongest magical power is the legendary sword formation. Although the two of us cannot see the details of the formation. But the power of the divine thoughts that can isolate me and Brother Shi is enough to prove the mystery of this formation."

Liu Shuier smiled bitterly.

"Indeed. From the moment you skillfully guided the dark beast into the formation until you successfully killed it and removed the sword formation, it took longer than the two of us, but no sound was made during the entire process. This shows the magic of this sword formation. If you possess such magical powers, I'm sure there will be few rivals below the Saint level."

Shi Kun also praised sincerely.

"Haha! Why do you two Taoist friends need to praise me so much? Although my Chunli Sword Formation has a certain power, you two Taoist friends are envoys sent by our seniors, so I believe that you have only hidden one tenth or two tenths of your true strength. How can a mere sword formation compare to it!"

Lin Mo smiled slightly and replied in a calm tone.

When Lin Mo said this, Shi Kun was briefly surprised, but soon responded with a smile:

"Your magical powers are beyond the reach of Fairy Liu and I, so there is no need to praise each other too much. Let's get back to the topic and continue talking about the deeper Dark Beast Forest ahead. In one or two days, we will go deep into the core area of ​​the Dark Beast Forest, which is usually where most dark beasts live. In order to pass this area smoothly, we must devote our full attention and remain highly vigilant."

"When passing through the center of the Dark Beast Forest, remember not to try to hunt lone Dark Beasts. Although the restrictions we set up can deal with ordinary Dark Beasts, for high-level three-eyed Dark Beasts, once they attack, they will inevitably be unable to avoid their perception. In addition, in the depths of the forest, we can no longer use divine consciousness to search a large area. Once a battle occurs, you can imagine how dangerous it will be."

Liu Shuier's tone also became serious.

"Even if we have to fight, we can't keep dragging it out like we are doing now. The three of us must work together and strive to defeat the opponent in the shortest time possible to reduce the risk."

After thinking for a moment, Shi Kun added a sentence.

"Indeed. With the combined strength of the three of us, if we only have to fight against an ordinary dark beast, it won't be difficult to solve the problem instantly. However, if we encounter a high-level dark beast, the situation may become more complicated."

Lin Mo touched his chin and said thoughtfully.

"If we are really targeted by high-level dark beasts, then the combined attack technique of Yuanci Divine Light may come in handy." Liu Shuier smiled slightly.

"That's right! I almost forgot about this secret technique. With this method, even a lone high-level dark beast is nothing to worry about."

Shi Kun's eyes suddenly brightened and he clapped his hands in joy.

"However, unless absolutely necessary, this magical power should be used as a last resort. I do not want to be besieged by so many high-level dark beasts."

Lin Mo shook his head, still looking a little worried.

"Please rest assured. Brother Shi and I are well aware of this. After you and I have successfully obtained the skin of the dark beast, we will set off immediately. During the journey, we'd better keep a proper distance to avoid attracting too much attention."

Liu Shuier put forward her suggestion.

"Fairy Liu is right. Then, I will go first."

After hearing this, Shi Kun replied with a bright smile.

Then, he made a hand gesture and the dark animal skin suddenly appeared on his body surface. A ball of silver light flew out from his cuffs and merged into the animal skin.

The big man somersaulted and turned into a black beast in the blink of an eye. With a little effort from his limbs, he rushed away like an arrow. Seeing this, Lin Mo and Liu Shuier cast spells without hesitation, each transforming into two other black beasts, splitting up to the left and right and following closely behind.

During the flight, the three of them activated their magic weapons to hide their figures again.

As a result, it would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to find any trace of the three of them in this wooded and shadowy environment.

In the following journey, whenever Lin Mo and others noticed the whereabouts of any strange beasts or any abnormal situation, they would quietly avoid them and would never have any contact with other strange beasts.

In the first few days, the frequency of encountering dark beasts was not high, but these dark beasts rarely acted alone, and most of them traveled in groups of two or three.

After another seven or eight days, they were already in the core area of ​​the forest, and some dark beasts even began to appear in groups of five or six or even a dozen.

Faced with the scene before them, Lin Mo, Liu Shuier and Shi Kun could not help but feel a little surprised, and their sense of caution was unprecedentedly strong.

Fortunately, with their excellent escape skills and powerful magic power far beyond that of ordinary dark beasts, they successfully avoided any possible mistakes.

However, they were not sure whether they were really lucky or because of some unknown changes in the Dark Beast Forest.

During this journey, they did not encounter the legendary high-level three-eyed dark beast, which allowed them to successfully penetrate into the core area of ​​the Dark Beast Forest.

If they can maintain this safety for the next three to four days, they will have a chance to pass the most dangerous area of ​​the Dark Beast Forest and breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Lin Mo and others did not relax their vigilance at this moment. On the contrary, their expressions became more and more serious.

They were all experienced practitioners who had witnessed countless failures, but in this Dark Beast Forest, they had never been able to find any traces of high-level Dark Beasts. This made them feel relieved but also worried.

As they continued to move forward, the number of common dark beasts began to gradually decrease. In the past two days alone, they had seen less than a dozen.

The mood of Lin Mo and the other two suddenly became heavy, and they acted more cautiously.

Lin Mo moved quickly in the jungle like a ghost. Although there was a towering tree in front of him blocking his way, the green shadow he transformed into just leaped lightly and passed through like an invisible body without making any sound.

This mysterious escape technique undoubtedly made his speed seem extremely strange.

However, his brows were tightly furrowed, and a faint blue light flashed in his eyes, and his gaze was constantly searching the surroundings.

Since he couldn't use his divine sense in the depths of the forest, he could only rely on the magical powers of Mingqing Lingmu to find the dark beasts so as to avoid them in advance.

He didn't understand what methods Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun used. Whenever a dark beast appeared, their reaction speed seemed to be no less than his.

This made Lin Mo very confused.

Did these two people also cultivate some kind of magical five senses like him? Or did they use some unknown magic weapon?

This gave him even more respect for his two companions.

Thinking this in his mind, Lin Mo turned his gaze to the left and right.

With the help of his spiritual eyes, he could clearly see that the dark beasts transformed by Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun were each more than a hundred feet away from him, and were also advancing at an astonishing speed.

When he saw that there was no problem with the two men, his brows relaxed slightly and then he turned his gaze back to the front.

However, at this moment, an accident suddenly happened!

From the direction they were heading, a golden shadow suddenly rushed out from the darkness ahead.

In just a moment, it crossed a distance of dozens of feet, came to Shi Kun's side, and slammed into Shi Kun who was hiding.

Although Shi Kun tried to dodge in panic, he was unable to avoid the opponent because his opponent's movements were too fast.

With no other choice, he could no longer hide his identity. His whole body emanated a dazzling yellow light, and he poured all his magic power into the protective aura.

There was a deafening sound of "boom".

The golden light and the yellow light collided with each other, and the golden shadow staggered back a few steps, then immediately stabilized its body.

The dark beast transformed by Shi Kun was directly knocked away and crashed heavily into a big tree dozens of feet away, breaking the giant tree in half, which required several people to hug. Finally, it barely stopped.

However, the dark beast that the big man transformed into was half lying in the broken wood, with a painful expression on his face, and it seemed that he could not recover for a while.

When Lin Mo and the cloaked woman nearby saw this scene, their faces suddenly changed.

They had witnessed with their own eyes how strong Shi Kun's body was.

However, such an indestructible body was accidentally hit by the golden shadow and became the miserable state it is today.

The strength of that golden shadow was simply terrifying to the extreme.

A blue light flashed in Lin Mo's eyes, and in an instant, the golden shadow in the distance came into his sight, and he could see every detail of it.

However, the scene before him instantly shocked him!
The true appearance of the golden shadow was actually a dark beast with a body less than ten feet long, but covered with glittering golden hair, with piercing eyes as dark as a black hole. This was actually the legendary dark king-level dark beast!
Lin Mo couldn't help but wonder to himself: Could it be that I am really so unlucky?
Before setting off, he had secretly speculated that it was unlikely to encounter a dark king-level dark beast in such a short time.

However, before encountering the three-eyed high-level dark beast, they have already come face to face with the most terrifying existence in this forest.

Although we still don't know how powerful this beast's magical powers are, its strength must surpass the Saint level.

Lin Mo's mood suddenly fell to the bottom. His body paused for a moment, his eyes fixed on the golden dark beast in front of him, not daring to relax at all.

At the same time, several rare treasures in his body began to tremble slightly under telepathy.

On the other side, she, who had transformed from Liu Shui'er into a dark beast, also stopped on a branch as thick as a bowl, and stared at the golden dark beast as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
