High Martial Arts: First day of dropping out of school, reward: Devouring the Emperor's Body

To be fair, Eric was indeed unlucky, because that golden light was the divine counterattack triggered passively by the Heavenly Emperor's Armor.

This divine power belongs to the Heavenly Emperor Ye Ming, and Li Mo has no way to use it.

However, when the enemy attacks Li Mo, or rather, when they attack the Heavenly Emperor's Armor, there is a certain probability that a divine counterattack will be triggered.

The system didn't specify the probability, and Li Mo thought it was very low because when he fought Baal before, Baal had punched Li Mo at least a thousand times, but hadn't triggered a single divine counterattack.

Eric's single strike triggered Ye Ming's divine power!

It should be noted that Ye Ming is a powerhouse on par with Chen Han, possessing combat strength beyond the world's standards. Even a Martial God would be insignificant in their presence.

What is Eric, a mere martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm, worth?

Sure enough, the moment Eric saw that golden light, he felt an unprecedented and deadly fear!

That fear almost chilled him to the bone!

The golden light didn't seem particularly powerful, but Eric felt utterly helpless in its presence.

Eric tried to run away, but the golden light was too fast, and it was behind him in the blink of an eye.

Eric looked terrified. He used all his skills to try and resist the backlash of the divine power with his strong defense, but it was all in vain.

It is well known that the Black Soil Tribe people have the strongest physique, but they are nothing in front of this golden light. The golden light passed straight through Eric's body, and then, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, Eric turned into ashes!

Vanished instantly!

It was as if he had never existed!

All of this happened in less than five seconds!

In those five seconds, Gemu watched as his closest comrade-in-arms turned to dust and disappeared from the world. A martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm had vanished so hastily.

Even a God of War wouldn't have such dominance, would they?

"Oh my God! Eric!"

Gemu shouted. He had originally wanted to save Eric, but when he turned around, he found that he had been paralyzed by fear.

His legs were trembling, and his whole body was emitting waves of chills—a sign of extreme fear.

To be honest, Gemu had faced Martial Gods before. He and Eric often sought out Morpheus for guidance. Although Morpheus was suspected of holding back, they understood that Heaven and Earth Realm warriors were not so easily defeated compared to Martial Gods.

It can at least block one or two attacks!

Moreover, if they turn and run away, it will take the God of War some effort to kill them!

No matter what, it shouldn't be possible to be instantly killed when you're completely on guard!

When did such a powerful figure appear in the Great Xia Dynasty?

After a while, Gemu's fear subsided somewhat, and he ran away almost without hesitation, because if he ran too slowly, he might end up like Eric!

Only after seeing Eric's figure disappear into the distance did Li Mo retract the Heavenly Emperor Armor and put it back on. When he turned around, everyone was staring at him with incredulous eyes.

"Boss, why didn't you say so earlier if you had this capability? Why are we still fighting guerrilla warfare with the Black Soil Tribe?"

"Yes! That attack just now could have wiped out the entire Black Earth Tribe army!"

"Li Mo, have you actually become this strong?"

……

Li Mo jumped down from the tree helplessly, then walked up to the group and said, "That wasn't my power!"

Li Mo himself was still in shock. He had thought that Ye Ming's strength was strong, but he did not expect it to be this strong. An enemy general, a top expert in the Heaven and Earth Realm, was so easily killed!

Although he survived the ordeal, Li Mo's expression did not show much joy.

Killing a martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm is good, but it also means big trouble.

Because another enemy martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm escaped!

From the perspective of that martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm, the only possibility that could instantly kill a martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm is a Martial God.

However, he believed that if a martial god-level expert from the Great Xia Dynasty were to make a move, the consequences would be unimaginable.

According to international conventions, martial gods are not allowed to interfere in ordinary wars; otherwise, they would be breaking international agreements, and everyone would disregard them.

The power of the God of War is enough to destroy the world. If the Gods of War from different countries start to act recklessly, the consequences will be more serious than a nuclear war.

It is difficult for one God of War to kill another God of War, but he can kill so many that only one God of War remains in another country.

Previously, Qin Zhengnan had made a bold statement that if he died on the battlefield, Qin Ming would avenge him without hesitation.

In reality, this is impossible. Even if Qin Ming wanted to avenge his grandson, he couldn't act as a martial god, otherwise he would be the fuse for the destruction of the world. This is no exaggeration.

So what Li Mo is worried about now is that if that martial artist at the Heaven and Earth Realm insists that it was the Martial God of Great Xia who made the move, then he will be unable to explain himself clearly.

By this time, Gemu had already escaped to the edge of the forest and returned to the vicinity of his troops.

When he came out, he was trembling all over. The soldiers were curious to see their general in such a disheveled state.

"General Gemu, what's wrong? Where is General Eric?"

Gemu roared, "The Great Xia has gone mad! Their War God has made his move! Do they want the world destroyed? No, I must go back and report to Marshal Morpheus, this war cannot be fought! It cannot be fought!"

After saying that, Gemu prepared to lead everyone to retreat.

However, as he rallied the entire army to retreat, he became increasingly uneasy.

If it were the Martial God of Great Xia who made the move, why would they leave him alive?

It is a taboo for the God of War to make a move; this is a principle that everyone understands. He either doesn't make a move at all, or if he does, he has to kill all the survivors!

Why did that person kill Eric but spare him?

Furthermore, if the Martial God of Great Xia were to actually make his move, none of his 100,000 troops would survive, yet he has not appeared so far.

Does a dignified martial god need to hide in the shadows and launch a sneak attack?

That doesn't make sense!

Gemu is one of the few people in the Black Soil tribe who has some brains.

He thought of Li Mo from the Vanguard Battalion. Before this, he had learned through his subordinates that Li Mo had been to the alien ruins in the Seven Yuan Mountains.

The reason why alien ruins are valuable for research is because they contain many unexpected treasures, such as groundbreaking weapons!

Since there have been precedents of similar occurrences in alien ruins, it's not impossible for Li Mo to obtain some incredible weapon within them.
