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

To be fair, these dark beasts were quite slow to arrive, taking a full two minutes to catch up.

Li Mo agreed to let Wu Yuqing deal with Ouyang Xun not entirely to fulfill Wu Yuqing's wishes, but also partly because of these dark beasts.

Li Mo naturally couldn't possibly deal with the dark beasts while fighting Ouyang Xun, but these dark beasts provided a lot of devouring points, so for Li Mo, prioritizing killing the dark beasts was the most cost-effective option.

It just so happens that someone can help him kill Ouyang Xun, which is a win-win situation for Li Mo.

Upon witnessing Wu Yuqing's exquisite swordsmanship, Li Mo's fighting spirit soared.

Li Mo's expression was serious, his hands gripping his spear tightly. He then said to Zheng Jiahao and the others, "Your first priority is to protect yourselves, and then prevent the dark beasts from harassing Wu Yuqing. As for the rest, leave it to me!"

Actually, Li Mo had been somewhat restrained when leading the team because Zheng Jiahao and the others were unable to inflict any real damage on the dark beasts. Therefore, he had to protect everyone while dealing with the dark beasts.

The most difficult to protect is Qin Zhengnan, whose cultivation level is only the ninth rank of the Hidden Edge Realm. He would die instantly if touched by a dark beast.

But the situation is different now. The cave is relatively narrow and not particularly spacious, so it's impossible for all the dark beasts to rush in.

Faced with this situation, Li Mo chose to take the initiative and confront the remaining seventy-odd dark beasts!

"After defeating these dark beasts, I should have enough Devouring Points to upgrade an SSS-level talent!"

The talent points provided by dark beasts are generally several times or even more than ten times those of beasts of the same level, which are extremely valuable experience points for Li Mo.

The total Devouring Points Li Mo gained from killing these Dark Beasts were, according to his estimation, roughly enough to evolve his talent into an SSS-level talent…

SSS talent is the strongest talent in the world, and most of them have unpredictable effects.

Thinking of this, Li Mo felt inexplicably excited and went all out, because he didn't know when Wu Yuqing would be able to kill Ouyang Xun, and he had to kill all the dark beasts before that time.

Li Mo was engulfed in golden flames of the Candle Dragon, his hands gripping his spear tightly, with two throwing knives swirling around him.

He roared and instantly charged into the enemy ranks!

He charged into the horde of dark beasts like a sun, his spear sweeping across the land, instantly igniting almost all the dark beasts in his wake, and then burning them to ashes.

In addition, the two invincible beast-throwing knives can also inflict fatal damage on the dark beasts.

Rather than saying that this group of dark beasts surrounded Li Mo, it would be more accurate to say that Li Mo surrounded this group of dark beasts all by himself!

These dark beasts couldn't even get close to Li Mo, and in no time, a large number of them were killed by Li Mo.

As Li Mo killed the dark beast, his Devouring Points also skyrocketed.

"Wow! Boss is awesome!"

"We don't need to get involved at all! They told us to hold off the dark beasts, but these beasts can't possibly break through!"

"One man can hold the pass against ten thousand! Captain Li is truly a role model for us all!"

The three spectators sighed; they dared not charge into the enemy ranks like Li Mo, so they could only watch from the sidelines.

Compared to Wu Yuqing's ultimate sword strike, Li Mo's impact was significantly greater, after all, these were a group of dark beasts that could be harmed almost only by their souls!

Ouyang Xun was also quite surprised.

In fact, he had always thought that Wu Yuqing was the strongest among this group, and that even those dark beasts were killed by Wu Yuqing.

But now it seems that the one who killed the Dark Beast was not Wu Yuqing, but this spear-wielding boy!

No matter how powerful the dark beast was, it was as fragile as paper in front of it, dying instantly without any power to resist.

This was the first time Ouyang Xun had ever seen such a situation since he learned how to refine dark beasts.

That means you can kill a dark beast even without divine soul power!

He had felt something was strange before; theoretically, the Dark Beasts should be invincible to Wu Yuqing.

Now everything makes sense!

"One freak is bad enough, but there's another one!" Ouyang Xun thought to himself.

However, losing focus during battle is a major taboo, and Wu Yuqing immediately seized the opportunity when Ouyang Xun lost focus for a moment.

"You dare to get distracted while playing against me? You've got some nerve!"

The next moment, Wu Yuqing stabbed Ouyang Xun in the chest with her sword.

Ouyang Xun was already covered in wounds, and when Wu Yuqing stabbed him in the chest with her sword, his Vajra Body Technique was instantly broken.

"puff!"

Ouyang Xun stepped back, spitting out a mouthful of blood, clearly having reached a dead end.

Wu Yuqing stared coldly at Ouyang Xun and said in a deep voice, "Ouyang Xun, you killed my younger brother and sister, you've already met your end! Now I'll send you to be buried with them!"

Seeing this, Zheng Jiahao and the other two also began to mock and ridicule Ouyang Xun.

"Ouyang Xun, where did your arrogance go? Weren't you going to destroy the Great Xia? How come you're almost lying on the ground now?" Zheng Jiahao sneered.

"Why waste words with this traitor? He's just a stupid dog who likes to hang out with black people! Those who offend our Great Xia, no matter how far away, will be punished!"

"Brother Xu, you're right, but this is our own home. There's no such thing as 'punishing even if they're far away'..."

"Xiao Qin, give your brother Xu some face. With his level of education, this is all he knows!"

"..."

Ouyang Xun's face was almost as red as a pig's liver with anger, but he was powerless to fight back, and the dark beasts had almost been wiped out by Li Mo.

No matter how you look at it, he was destined to lose at this point!

Ouyang Xun looked up at the black mud at his feet, his face full of resentment.

"Damn it! I was so close! I was so close to succeeding!"

In this final moment, facing Wu Yuqing's final sword strike, Ouyang Xun did not choose to accept death calmly, but instead glared fiercely at everyone.

"You bunch of bastards ruined my plans! You're utterly despicable! But even if I die, I'll take you all with me! And everyone currently inside the secret realm with me!"

Before Wu Yuqing's sword could even strike, to everyone's bewilderment, after uttering some harsh words to the crowd, Ouyang Xun suddenly struck his own heart with a palm strike...

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Ouyang Xun slowly fell backward, his entire body submerged in the black mud.

He actually committed suicide?

What's going on?

At this moment, Li Mo was still dealing with the dark beasts, and he was stunned when he saw this scene.

Then a chill suddenly ran down his back, and an inexplicable fear gripped his entire body; this eerie feeling even made him tremble slightly…

dong dong!

dong dong!

At that moment, everyone inside the cave suddenly heard a strange heartbeat, and then the black mud beneath their feet inexplicably began to churn.

The dark beasts that were attacking Li Mo suddenly ran wildly towards the outside world, but before they could get far, they were torn apart by a strange attraction in the black mud and then completely swallowed by it!
