Chapter 1227
It was evident that God King Heisha had told them, which meant God King Heisha had been here before.
God King Heisha had successfully crossed this area; the key question was how he had managed to do it.
It certainly wasn't by brute force; even if a Stone Demon rolled itself into a ball, it would still be blocked by the Mountain Monsters.
Mountain Monsters were different from Flying Ants; you couldn't just roll past them.
"Either God King Heisha had a special method, or he had found a path leading to the central lake."
"But the Death Knights have already traveled a long way along the Mountain Monsters and haven't found any such path."
"Then how did God King Heisha do it?"
The Human Race had been away from the Yellow Earth Desert for too long, and their understanding of it was far too scarce.
Lin Moyu was certain there must be a way to cross this area, but he didn't know how to go about it.
With absolutely no clues, Lin Moyu dismissed his thoughts.
Time was too short; it was impossible for him to find the correct method.
Now there were only two paths before him: one was to raise his strength to the Lesser God Venerable realm and force his way through.
The second was to lure these Mountain Monsters away; since there was no path, he would create one himself.
Luring monsters and pulling aggro—he was extremely proficient in this, so it was no problem.
He was currently at True God Rank 9; one step further would be the God King Realm.
If he used an Origin Technique to raise his realm and killed his way in, he would inevitably absorb a massive amount of soul power.
If he wasn't careful, it might push him directly into the God King Realm.
This was not what he desired; he had not yet fully comprehended the laws of the True God Realm and still needed time to address any deficiencies and solidify his foundation.
After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Moyu decided to adopt the second method.
He would still use the Death Knights; in the Yellow Earth Desert, the Death Knights were the fastest and could maximize their advantages.
A squad of several hundred Death Knights charged toward the Mountain Monsters. The Mountain Monsters had no interest in undead creatures that lacked life energy and completely ignored them.
It didn't matter if they ignored him; the Death Knights would make them pay attention.
The Death Knights drew their longswords and unleashed attacks filled with the Power of Death.
The Death Knights' attacks were not powerful; they could only leave faint marks on the Mountain Monsters, not even qualifying as a scratch.
However, the attacks contained the Power of Death from the Undead Law.
The Power of Death corroded the Mountain Monsters' bodies, triggering their counterattack.
The Mountain Monsters awakened, their law energy surged, and giant fists grew from their waists, slamming toward the Death Knights.
The Death Knights had already moved away when they launched their attacks, and seeing this, they retreated even further, avoiding the Mountain Monsters' strikes.
The Mountain Monsters began to move, chasing after the Death Knights.
They were very fast, and the Death Knights had to go all out just to keep pace with them.
Chapter 1357: What Method Did He Use After All?
The Death Knights dragged the Mountain Monsters further and further away until they disappeared from sight.
From beginning to end, Lin Moyu observed the state of this Mountain Monster, watching its eyes.
Its huge eyes were locked onto the Death Knight.
Once there was any slack, the Death Knight would land a few more hits, provoking it into a chase once again.
The Mountain Monsters not only had strong defense and decent attacks, but their self-healing ability was also heaven-defying.
At the same time, they possessed a persistent spirit; they chased the Death Knights for over 100,000 kilometers without stopping.
With this, Lin Moyu gradually felt relieved; he knew his idea was feasible.
Immediately after, squad after squad of Death Knights rushed out, pouncing toward the Mountain Monsters.
With a hundred members per squad, 1 million Death Knights were enough to form 10,000 squads to lure away 10,000 Mountain Monsters.
As one Mountain Monster after another was lured away, a wide path appeared before him.
…
It was the third day of the five-day agreement set by Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang.
In front of the central lake, Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang sat on the ground.
This time, no Great Sun appeared above his head, but Buddhist light still lingered around him, making him look solemn and dignified.
In fact, he had arrived here the day before and had been waiting quietly.
In his hand, he held an earthy-yellow tree branch.
The branch was rich with the aura of laws, causing ripples of laws to undulate in the air like waves and spread outward.
This branch was obtained from the Tree of Death in the middle region.
Under the shroud of the branch's aura, the central lake was unusually calm; the area where Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang was located was tranquil.
Once outside the area covered by the branch's aura, the waves of the central lake suddenly became turbulent.
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang looked at the lake surface, lost in thought.
A moment later, he slowly raised his head and looked into the distance.
Two figures appeared in the distance.
Buddhist light shone from Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang, forming a huge projection in the air: "Two fellow Daoists, it has been a long time. I trust you have been well?"
The two people in the distance raised their heads simultaneously and looked at the projection.
They were God King Heisha of the Sand Tribe, a Lesser God Venerable, and God King Shitu of the Earth Monster Race.
God King Heisha was already a Lesser God Venerable, on the same level as Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang.
Although God King Shitu was not a Lesser God Venerable, he was only a line weaker and likely not much worse than God King Heisha.
Moreover, the Sand Tribe and the Earth Monster Race were allies here, and the two had always acted in unison.
It was precisely because of this that they were able to occupy a place in front of the powerful Demon Race.
The two also mobilized their laws, forming huge projections in the air: "Little Buddha, we trust you have been well."
From their words, one could hear that they also maintained a trace of respect for Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang—this was respect for a powerhouse and also respect for the Buddhist Clan.
Even as fellow Lesser God Venerables, God King Heisha slightly lowered his posture.
It wasn't that he feared Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang, but because the Buddhist Clan was too powerful.
These two also held a branch in their hands, likewise obtained from the Tree of Death.
God King Heisha spoke up, "Hasn't God King Heisha arrived yet?"
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang chanted a Buddhist name: "Amitabha, God King Heisha will not be coming."
"Hmm? Little Buddha, what do you mean by that?" God King Heisha was somewhat puzzled.
Beside him, God King Shitu also revealed a strange expression.
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang said in a deep voice, "God King Heisha is dead and cannot come."
These words caused the expressions of God King Heisha and God King Shitu to change slightly. God King Heisha found it somewhat hard to believe: "Who could kill him?"
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang did not hide it: "It was a powerhouse of the Human Race."
"A Lesser God Venerable of the Human Race?"
"Not a Lesser God Venerable…"
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang recounted what he knew without any concealment; there was no need to hide anything.
The things he knew were not secrets.
Finally, Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang summarized: "This human powerhouse named Lin Moyu is someone I cannot see through. He likely has a treasure protecting him, so his usual aura is that of a True God Rank 9."
"But I can be certain that this person is not a Lesser God Venerable; there is no mistake about that."
God King Heisha said in a low voice, "Even you cannot see through him? It seems this person is truly extraordinary. It stands to reason; there are not many races that can be mentioned in the same breath as the Demon Race, and the Human Race is one of them."
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang smiled without speaking: "I made a five-day agreement with Lin Moyu; I expect he will arrive soon."
God King Heisha nodded, "Then let us wait."
They waited for a day, and the time reached the fourth day of the agreement.
Suddenly, Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang looked in one direction and said indifferently, "He is here!"
Immediately after, God King Heisha and God King Shitu also sensed something and looked over one after another.
They sensed that someone was rushing toward them.
The aura was not strong, not even at the God King Realm.
Without needing to think, it was that Lin Moyu who had slain God King Heisha.
God King Heisha and God King Shitu were very curious about what kind of person could kill God King Heisha.
God King Heisha was not easy to kill; even a Lesser God Venerable might not be able to do it.
Moreover, Lin Moyu was ranked first on the Demon Race's kill list, causing the Demon Race to spare no effort in offering a God Venerable-tier treasure as a reward.
In their line of sight, the Mountain Monsters in the distance suddenly moved and then sprinted away into the distance.
The few looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what had happened.
One Mountain Monster after another sprinted away, the posture looking as if they were chasing someone.
Soon, the Mountain Monsters were all gone, and Lin Moyu appeared in their eyes.
The moment they saw Lin Moyu, their eyes shrank sharply.
Especially God King Shitu, who belonged to the Earth Monster Race and was an existence that extremely disliked speaking.
Since greeting Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang at the beginning, he had not spoken again.
At this moment, he couldn't help but exclaim, "He is not holding a branch."
The thing that shocked them was that Lin Moyu was not holding a branch in his hand.
Lin Moyu had come empty-handed.
God King Heisha also muttered, "He was able to cross over without holding a branch? What method did he use after all?"
At this moment, there was an extra layer of solemnity in his eyes; even with his strength, he wouldn't have been able to get here without a branch.
Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang was equally puzzled; he didn't know how Lin Moyu had crossed over.
Lin Moyu's behavior exceeded his expectations.
Even for him, wanting to get here without using the branch would require a great deal of effort and might even result in failure.
He felt he needed to re-evaluate Lin Moyu's abilities; Lin Moyu was more formidable than he had imagined.
Lin Moyu saw Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang and the other two from afar.
He had met Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang before and was no stranger to him.
The other two, needless to say, were God King Heisha of the Sand Tribe and God King Shitu of the Earth Monster Race.
He had already learned the information about these two from the Stone Demon Revenant, and now he could match them one by one.
Upon seeing them, Lin Moyu's eyes narrowed suddenly.
He finally knew what the correct way to pass the obstruction of the Mountain Monsters was.
At this moment, all three of them were holding a tree branch in their hands, and the branches were continuously emitting ripples of laws.
He also had a branch from the Tree of Death.
Lin Moyu secretly laughed at himself for being a bit foolish; he had thought the branch of the Tree of Death would be useful, but he hadn't expected it to be used here.
Fortunately, he had his own method and had solved the obstacle.
Lin Moyu moved at a pace that seemed slow but was actually fast, quickly arriving at the lakeside.
Looking at the turbulent lake water, then looking at the calm lake surface in front of Bodhisattva Xiao Ming Wang and the others, he also took out that branch.
