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

The God of War is powerful enough that he is hailed as a humanoid strategic weapon.

In the blink of an eye, it can level mountains within a radius of three or four hundred kilometers.

But the Dark Ruins are even more powerful and can spread infection. A single ordinary Dark Ruins can instantly evaporate the ground within a radius of thousands of miles, leaving no living thing behind!

Even a martial god could only stop the Dark Ruins from spreading.

These creatures, known as Dark Ruins, are the main cause of the apocalyptic crisis.

Li Mo seemed to understand what Zhao Yi was trying to say, and he said, "You mean to say that the origin of the Dark Beasts is actually the Dark Ruins?"

Zhao Yi nodded, acknowledging Li Mo's idea.

Li Mo was somewhat surprised, then said, "That's impossible! Marshal Chen Han personally destroyed all the Dark Ruins that invaded Earth! People afterward feared the Dark Ruins like tigers, so how could there be any remaining Dark Ruins?"

Zhao Yi replied, "I don't know the specifics, but I do understand that the Dark Beasts come from the Dark Ruins."

Zhao Yi told Li Mo that he came from a fishing village on the southern coast of Da Xia. Three years ago, several dark beasts appeared in their village and slaughtered the entire village.

It was more accurate to describe it as eating than slaughter; the entire village was devoured by the dark beasts!

Zhao Yi escaped death because he hid in the cellar, but all his relatives perished.

After several twists and turns, Zhao Yi arrived in the capital and joined the Yaoxing Society. It was through the Yaoxing Society that he finally learned some information about the Dark Beasts.

After the cataclysmic crisis, some Dark Ruins actually hid underground. Although the Great Xia escaped the calamity, it was severely weakened as a result. The Black Earth Tribe and the White Europe Empire rose to power after that.

In order to fight against the Great Xia, the Black Earth Tribe and the White Europe Empire found these underground dark ruins, studied them, and finally created the Dark Beast, a special kind of strange beast.

Although the Dark Beast's power is not as great as the Dark Ruins, it has inherited many of the Dark Ruins' abilities.

Although dark beasts vary in strength, martial artists below the Three Harmony Realm are completely helpless against them.

Because no form of attack has any effect on Dark Beasts.

On the contrary, the Dark Beasts can easily devour humans!

Only by reaching the Three Harmony Realm, experiencing the state of divine harmony, qi harmony, and heart harmony, and then cultivating the divine soul, can one inflict fatal damage on dark beasts!

This is why Zhao Yi thought Li Mo was extremely powerful, considering that Li Mo was only at the Foundation Establishment stage!

There are still two major realms, Blood Transformation and Yin-Yang, to reach the Three Harmonies Realm!

Thus, Li Mo finally understood the origin of the Dark Beast. It turned out that it was a variant of the Dark Ruins. No wonder a Dark Beast could provide so many Devouring Points; it was not a product of Earth at all!

The reason Li Mo didn't know about the Dark Beasts was probably because the military high command had kept the matter quiet to avoid causing panic.

As he gets promoted, the military will eventually tell him about the Dark Beast.

I never expected that the Black Earth Tribe and the White European Empire would use such underhanded tactics in their war.

The Dark Ruins almost destroyed all of humanity back then!

It's not like it only destroyed the Great Xia!

During their conversation, Li Mo and his group arrived at the Yaoxing Society building.

No wonder it's the largest organization in Beijing with connections to both the legitimate and underworld circles.

The building's prominence is almost second only to the central government building in Beijing.

After hearing about the Dark Beast from Zhao Yi, Li Mo became more wary of the Yaoxing Society.

If Zhao Yi wasn't lying, he should have just been a country bumpkin like Xu Feng, but in just three years at Yaoxing Society, he managed to get so much information.

Especially news about dark beasts, the military high command should have kept it strictly under wraps. This Yaoxing Society is no ordinary organization!

"You guys go and heal your wounds first. Brother Li Mo, come with me."

After Zhao Yi had his brothers go to treat their injuries, he took Li Mo to see his boss.

Along the way, Zhao Yi explained the internal structure of Yaoxing Society to Li Mo.

The Yaoxing Society is divided into three departments and twelve halls.

The three departments are the leadership bodies, essentially responsible for formulating the gang's development strategy.

The Twelve Halls were the executive bodies, equivalent to those responsible for handling affairs.

Zhao Yi belongs to the Poisonous Snake Hall among the Twelve Halls. As you can tell from the name, this hall usually handles some shady matters.

Before long, a burly man with a scarred face appeared in front of Li Mo sitting in a chair.

This man was probably the strongest man Li Mo had ever seen, standing at 2.5 meters tall, twice the size of Xu Feng!

Li Mo wasn't exactly thin, but next to him he looked like a skinny bamboo pole.

He was Nie Meng, the leader of the Poisonous Snake Hall.

"Brother! I've come to ask you for a favor! It's about that aunt who borrowed tuition fees! Her nephew wants to transfer his debts!" ​​Zhao Yi spoke first.

At this moment, Li Mo also said, "Master Nie, I am Li Mo. I would like to transfer my aunt's debts to my name. The interest can remain the same, and I will repay on time. I just hope you will stop harassing her."

Nie Meng, whose face was full of fat, immediately let out a soft "hmm" after hearing what the two said.

"The auntie who borrowed tuition fees?"

Then, as if remembering something, he said, "Oh! I remember now, it's that student from Starry Sky University! The top student!"

When he said this, there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

Li Mo frowned; it seemed that Nie Meng did not want to carry out the debt transfer.

In reality, 500,000 Singapore dollars is not a big deal for such a large organization, especially since it is just a debt transfer, and it's not like Li Mo is unwilling to pay it back.

What's so difficult about this guy?

Seeing things were getting out of hand, Zhao Yi quickly said, "Brother, it's nothing, just help your brother out. It's only 500,000! If it really comes down to it, can I be his guarantor?"

Nie Meng chuckled lightly: "Zhao Yi, if it were anyone else, it wouldn't be a big deal for your brother. If you just asked, your brother would settle the debt, let alone transfer it. Even 500,000 yuan would be enough to settle this account! But… not him!"

Li Mo was puzzled upon hearing this. He and Nie Meng had never met before and had no past grievances or recent conflicts, so why would Nie Meng target him like this?

The ensuing conversation made Li Mo instantly understand the reason.

Zhao Yi asked with difficulty, "Brother, why? You're not usually this calculating!"

Nie Meng waved his hand and said, "Don't overthink it. There's no other reason. Five hundred thousand is nothing to your brother. It's actually very simple! I just don't like Starry Sky University. Anyone from Starry Sky University will not only have their debts transferred to me, but I'll also charge them interest!"

When Li Mo came with Zhao Yi, he had changed out of his military uniform into civilian clothes. After all, he was meeting with gang members and was afraid of causing misunderstandings.

Therefore, Nie Meng still thought that Li Mo was a student of Starry Sky University.

Little did they know, Li Mo had not only been expelled from Starry Sky University long ago, but was now secretly investigating Starry Sky University!

Isn't this a perfect coincidence?

"Master Nie, do you have a grudge against Starry Sky University?"
