Chapter 92 First Test of Tranquility
Lin Mu brought out the essence of Hua Jin Quan to its fullest extent.
The rockets moved so fast that the naked eye couldn't keep up, but every time their claws tore through the air, they left an extremely fine and sharp ripple in his mind.
He closed his eyes, activated his body-strengthening technique, and the energy on his energy membrane spread out layer by layer, capturing the aftershocks of each claw strike.
The rocket's claws attacked from the left, and he dodged to the side.
He ducked to avoid the attack from behind.
As the blade came down from above, he parried with a horizontal punch, his claws scraping against the shattered bones of the mountain and river, sending sparks flying.
He was capturing enough fragments of the trajectory, waiting for the myriad methods of martial arts to piece those fragments together into a complete original imprint.
The concept of "intention preceding the fist" has become a powerful defensive tool.
A rocket shot out from in front of him, its claws aimed straight for his throat.
He slightly turned his body and escaped in the blink of an eye.
The golden patterns flow along the entire path of the rocket's body, from the back of its neck to its heels.
Before each launch, the pattern would first light up from the back of the neck, flow down the spine to the heels, and then explode into an extremely short and sharp burst of force at the soles of the feet.
After observation, the original imprint of the Skyrocket Monkey can be replicated.
Should it be a replica? He silently thought, "Yes."
A surge of extremely light and sharp energy flowed into his dantian.
The original imprint of the Skyrocket slowly flowed through his meridians, from the back of his neck to the soles of his feet, and then sprang outwards.
He opened his eyes.
Another rocket is launching from the right, its claws gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
Lin Mu stomped his left foot on the ground, his body advancing instead of retreating.
The rocket is fast, but it has a weakness.
His sudden wind-step exploded on the spot, and his figure passed through the claws of the Skyrocket Monkey, followed by a backhand Mountain-Crushing Fist.
The fist strike, shattering mountains and rivers, was wrapped in a double layer of dark gold patterns, combining the fist's power with the mark of the Skyrocket Monkey, and slammed into the back of the Skyrocket Monkey's neck.
The dark gold patterns exploded under the fist, and the back of the rocket's neck was dented by the punch. Its entire body flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing into a pile of rocks and becoming motionless.
Another rocket let out a sharp cry, pushed off the rocks with its hind legs, and sprang towards the city wall like a bullet.
It actually tried to escape; this was the first time a monster had fled during the battle.
Running away is also a form of wisdom.
Lin Mu suddenly unleashed his Wind Step, so fast that it created a sonic boom in the air.
Based on the operation of the primordial imprint, the escape route of the rocket was accurately predicted, and a whip kick was precisely delivered to the back of the rocket, slamming it down from mid-air.
The rocket twitched twice amidst the pile of rocks, squeaked a few times, and then stopped moving.
Lin Mu pulled his leg back, leaning on his knee and panting heavily.
On the other side, Quan Feng pulled Yan Zifeng from under the neck of the Ironclad Rhinoceros and shook off the blood droplets on the blade.
The massive body of the armored rhinoceros crashed to its side, its bone armor slamming into the frozen ground, sending shards of ice and stone flying everywhere.
The direwolf's corpse lay at his feet, a deep, narrow gash running from the soft flesh all the way to his heart under its foreleg armpit.
The people on the city wall cheered with joy.
"Lin Mu seems to be able to predict the monkeys' movements?"
"Lin Mu has already reached the level of internal energy transformation. His fist precedes his intention, and his fist is even faster than his mind." Some people who didn't know the truth started spouting nonsense.
"Quan Feng is not bad either; his short knife is also very sharp."
"I heard it's called something like 'Demon God Weapon,' according to the Ye family."
Who built it?
"have no idea."
......
They stood atop the city gate, uttering sighs of emotion.
With such a young hero, how could we not win the battle?
Of course, Yue'er just pursed her lips, but this time she didn't belittle it, seemingly also affected by the atmosphere of battle here.
Lin Mu did not return to the city wall.
He took a step forward and walked toward the still twitching rocket at the edge of the pile of rocks.
Its hind legs were unconsciously kicking at the gravel, and the golden stripes on the back of its neck were slowly fading away.
He squatted down and began to show the Skyrocket the results of his evening lessons over the past few days—the Mind-Cleansing Mantra.
If your heart is pure and clear, you will not be alarmed even if the sky falls.
Amidst constant change, one remains steadfast, with a tranquil and serene spirit.
Untainted by dust or grime, unstained by worldly appearances.
......
The monkey squeaked twice, tilted its head to the side, and died.
Is this useful or useless?
How exactly should literature and morality be applied?
Just as Lin Mu was pondering, a deep and muffled roar came from the direction of the Eternal Night Forest.
It was like a sigh from ancient times.
The flagpoles on the city wall vibrated and hummed, and the surface of the chilled tea placed on the crenellations rippled.
At the edge of the dark clouds, countless dark golden pupils lit up simultaneously.
Monsters surged in from the horizon like a tide.
This time the quantity is greater than any previous time.
They no longer charged in dense formations, but instead spread out in a fan shape, stretching from the opposite bank of the moat all the way to the edge of the wasteland.
A pack of demonic wolves led the way, flanked by tusked boars, while blood pythons slithered through the beast tide, and the armored rhinoceros's single horn formed a moving forest of bones under the midday sun.
At the very back of the fan-shaped formation, dozens of dire wolves were slowly pacing.
Their silvery-white fur gleamed with a cold, eerie light in the sunlight, and their icy-blue pupils pierced through the raging beast tide and across the moat...
Seeing that there were many demonic beasts, Wen Haoran opened the bamboo slip.
Pure white light seeped from each ink character. He pushed the bamboo slip forward, and the light poured down silently.
As the light flowed across the moat, the bodies of low-level demonic beasts turned to ashes in patches within the light.
After the ashes were scattered by the wind, a few scattered dire wolves remained on the opposite bank of the moat.
They stood outside the range of the light flow, their icy blue pupils still staring coldly.
Lin Mu lightly touched the frozen mud with his left foot and leaped back towards the opposite bank of the moat.
Shattering Mountains and Rivers' fist drew a dark golden arc under the blazing sun, striking the head of an Icefield Wolf squarely.
The dire wolf's head was blasted into its chest cavity by the force of the punch.
He drew his fist, then threw it horizontally, ready to meet the attack from the next direction.
The remaining dire wolves suddenly retreated in unison.
Their steps were perfectly synchronized, their icy blue pupils still fixed on Lin Mu.
Lin Mu chased after them, but they continued to retreat.
He chased after it for a few steps, then suddenly stopped.
On both sides of the fan-shaped formation, countless dark golden pupils lit up simultaneously from the grass, behind the rocks, and from the cracks in the frozen soil.
Those demonic beasts never entered the range of the righteous energy's light flow from the very beginning.
They lay hidden in the shadows of the wasteland, behind piles of rocks, in gullies of frozen soil, and beneath the corpses of their companions.
At this moment, they gathered around from all directions.
The monsters have actually come up with a strategy.
Dozens of dire wolves surrounded Lin Mu, and countless tiny ice crystals shattered in the air.
A chilling aura surged in from all directions, and Lin Mu's breath condensed into white mist in the air.
A thin layer of frost covered her eyelashes.
"Damn it." Duanmu Hong leaped off the city wall and ran towards Lin Mu, with demonic beasts along the way risking their lives to block his way.
At this moment, Lin Mu was already locked in battle with the Icefield Wolves.
The combined chilling energy of dozens of ice wolves slowed down the dissipation speed by several times.
He dodged the frost breath head-on, but a bloody gash was torn open on his left shoulder by an ice claw from the side.
