Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Miao Xin also snapped to reality, realizing they had no other choice. She was somewhat surprised by Lin Mo’s physical strength and, after hesitating for a moment, clenched her teeth and moved around the site of the two clashing figures, dashing towards the back of the Purple Winged Tiger.

The Purple Winged Tiger, being a Demon Beast with awakened spiritual wisdom, naturally detected Miao Xin’s movements. It roared in rage and spat out a burst of purple light, an energy manifestation of the Spiritual Energy cultivated by the Demon Beast.

Despite this, the purple beam was still laced with tremendous energy, turning grass, trees, and rocks into dust along its path, carving a long scar upon the ground.

Miao Xin’s face turned pale. At that moment, a figure suddenly moved swiftly, positioning himself in front of her with arms crossed over his chest, struck squarely by the purple light beam. His body was forced backward, feet gouging two deep furrows into the ground.

Miao Xin saw the figure that had blocked the beam - it was Lin Mo.

The beam had left Lin Mo’s clothes in tatters, revealing a body that seemed to gleam like glass, faintly emitting a gentle golden radiance.

”Little fella, your opponent is right here,” Lin Mo said, staring down the Purple Winged Tiger with a slight squint in his eyes, a look of disdain on his face.

”Roar!”

The Purple Winged Tiger roared once more, thoroughly enraged by Lin Mo, no longer paying any heed to Miao Xin’s running figure as it charged toward Lin Mo.

Lin Mo’s physique could withstand missile strikes, but the Purple Winged Tiger, being a Demon Beast, inherently possessed a body stronger than that of any human Martial Artist or Cultivator.

Battling with it, Lin Mo fought with bone-crushing force, equally astonished by the Purple Winged Tiger’s resilience. He hadn’t used his True Qi, but a full-powered punch from him could crush a tank; however, it only sent the Purple Winged Tiger rolling a few times.

Lin Mo and the Purple Winged Tiger were locked in combat, dust billowing around them and the surrounding grass and forest in total disarray.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Lin Mo’s punch sent the Purple Winged Tiger tumbling away, while the beast, in turn, slapped a blow that launched Lin Mo through the air, his body breaking more than a dozen large trees as thick as water barrels before coming to a stop.

”It’s been a long time since I’ve brawled like this!” Lin Mo’s voice carried an undertone of excitement.

With the strength behind the Purple Winged Tiger’s swipe, it could probably overturn a tank, flattening an armored vehicle, and yet it only left five shallow marks on Lin Mo.

The Purple Winged Tiger, with its head down and panting heavily, was obviously exhausted from the fierce battle. Moreover, Lin Mo’s punches inflicted considerable pain upon it.

”Roar.”

The Purple Winged Tiger growled lowly, then suddenly spread its wings and flew about twenty meters into the air, looking down at Lin Mo. It took a deep breath, its mouth acting like a vortex, sucking the surrounding dense fog into its belly.

This was the buildup to a major move! Once the energy was fully charged, a purple vortex slowly formed in the beast’s mouth, which burst into a dazzling purple radiance, encapsulating a sense of vast and enigmatic power before it was violently expelled, a purple light column as thick as its body shot out from the skies, like a laser beam.

The entire valley and forest seemed as if a massive section had been violently ripped away by someone. Everything in the path of the purple light column was reduced to powder, and with such a wide range of attack, Lin Mo, no matter how fast he was, couldn’t possibly outpace the speed of light.

Looking down at the swirling dust below, the Purple Winged Tiger showed a trace of weariness on its face; that human must be dead by now.

At this thought, the Purple Winged Tiger was about to turn around and pursue that woman when it suddenly detected a trace of danger, its purple pupils slightly contracting.

”Where do you think you’re going? I haven’t had enough yet,” a voice said.

By the time the Purple Winged Tiger noticed, it already saw a figure leaping to the same height as itself. It was a young man with black hair and black eyes, smiling, his fist fiercely striking the single horn on the top of its head, actually breaking off a piece of the horn.

The Purple Winged Tiger let out a miserable scream, fell from the sky, and crashed to the ground, creating a huge crater.

Lin Mo quickly descended as well, his foot falling from the sky and fiercely stomping on the Purple Winged Tiger’s head, brutally stomping out a bloody cavity.

The Purple Winged Tiger was dead!

Lin Mo extracted a purple crystal from the Purple Winged Tiger’s head. Some demon beasts, who understood cultivation techniques and had opened their spiritual wisdom, were no different from humans. However, this beast, with its mere brute strength but no wisdom, had all its energy condensed in its head, known as the Demon Core.

”I wonder if Miao Xin has found the Array Eye yet,” Lin Mo frowned, took Little Golden Snake with him, and ran toward the deep southwest.

Soon enough, he saw three towering ancient trees, each ten zhang high, with their crowns shading the sky and covering a hundred meters, and among them emanated an extremely rich Life Aura.

Miao Xin was standing next to one of the trees, frowning, obviously unsure of how to break the Array.

Lin Mo slowly walked up to her. When Miao Xin noticed Lin Mo’s arrival and saw the numerous injuries on his body, she simply turned her head away, because she didn’t understand why the sight of Lin Mo injured made her feel a pang of heartache.

To avoid letting Lin Mo notice her unusual reaction, she simply chose not to look at Lin Mo.

”This is Divine Wood,” Lin Mo revealed a hint of surprise.

It turned out that the Array Eye within the entire Mist Valley was right here.

However, it was not the several tall trees that could be seen, but a piece of wood not very large, enveloped within the trees.

The piece of wood was only half a meter in size and looked no different from ordinary wood, but one could feel the thick and pure Vitality emanating from it.

Even the towering trees around it were influenced by its Vitality, which was why they grew so tall and lush with foliage.

”Such strong Vitality,” Lin Mo murmured to himself. The mutation of the wild beasts in the valley might also be caused by this piece of Divine Wood. Its appearance, along with the Purple Winged Tiger, all indicated that there might have been a Sect here in the past, although it was unknown why they had left this place, or perhaps they had left Earth entirely. And the Divine Wood that was left behind was precisely what stimulated the power of the remaining Arrays.

Therefore, to destroy the prohibitions within the valley, one only needed to take the Divine Wood away or to absorb its surging Life Essence Power into one’s own body.

And as a Wood Attribute treasure, if Lin Mo were to absorb it, it could very likely lead to further advancements in his Yang Wood Divine Skill.

Moreover, Lin Mo had sustained some injuries and was in urgent need of some Life Essence Qi to recover his body and strength.

After stepping into the center of the entire Array, both Miao Xin and Lin Mo felt that the Spiritual Energy within their bodies began to loosen up, no longer restricted by the prohibitions of the Array.

Therefore, Lin Mo immediately set up several defensive Arrays to prevent sudden attacks from anomalous beasts like the Purple Winged Tiger within the valley.
