Chapter 398: He Said He Could, So He Definitely Could. Trust Him.

Another longsword appeared in Lin Moyu's hand.

He thrust it through the gaps in the armor and into Zhou Lesheng's body.

Zhou Lesheng let out a miserable shriek, still unable to wake from the hallucination shrouded by killing intent.

Weapons appeared in Lin Moyu's hand one after another.

In the blink of an eye, he turned Zhou Lesheng into a hedgehog bristling with weapons.

Zhou Lesheng screamed repeatedly, his aura gradually weakening.

Finally, he was about to wake up.

An axe appeared in Lin Moyu's hand. With a flash of the axe's light, his right arm was severed and flew into the sky.

Another flash of light passed, and Zhou Lesheng's right leg also left his body.

Zhou Lesheng crashed to the ground; he had finally regained consciousness.

With severed limbs and blood covering the ground, Zhou Lesheng screamed endlessly in the pool of blood.

Now, he only had one breath left.

Lin Moyu said in a low voice, "I wonder if you can still revive after dying here."

Terror appeared on Zhou Lesheng's face. "Don't kill me, I beg you, don't kill me. I don't want to die yet."

Lin Moyu shook his head. "I cannot find a reason not to kill you."

Zhou Lesheng said, "I can tell you information about the Demon Worshipping Society, a lot of information."

Lin Moyu still shook his head. "I've said it before, what qualifications do you have to cooperate with the Demon Worshipping Society? You only deserve to be a dog. As a dog, what could you possibly know?"

As he spoke, Lin Moyu swung the axe.

Zhou Lesheng died completely, passing away with pain and fear.

Lin Moyu collected these weapons one by one.

They were Platinum-grade weapons, after all; they would be worth some money if sold.

The crowd in the distance finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had already consumed many potions, and their injuries were recovering.

The recovery ability of Professionals is quite powerful; as long as they don't die, they can quickly heal even from severe injuries.

Lin Moyu glanced at them and returned to the side of Lin Mohan and the others. "It's done. I'm going to change my clothes."

At this moment, he was covered in blood, and his clothes had been slashed by the sword light.

Lin Mohan smiled slightly. "Go on, go on. Don't worry, we won't peek."

Lin Moyu walked into the orchard and disappeared.

Ning Yiyi still had lingering fears. "Sister Han, how did you know that Lin Moyu could kill him?"

Lin Mohan smiled. "He said he could, so he definitely could. Trust him."

Hearing this, Ning Yiyi nodded.

That's right, trust him!

Mo Yun asked, "If Lin Moyu hadn't acted, what would we have done?"

Lin Mohan smiled indifferently. "Then I would have acted. He was just a clown; I could have dealt with him easily."

Mo Yun believed Lin Mohan's words; there was a sense of mystery about her.

Not only did she have a powerful and mysterious teacher, but she herself was the same.

Therefore, Lin Mohan did not panic in the slightest. The way Lin Mohan looked at Zhou Lesheng was clearly looking at a clown.

Soon, Lin Moyu returned after changing his clothes.

The bloodstains on his body had been wiped clean, and there was no longer any smell of blood.

The Purification Potion was still taking effect, ensuring no scent would remain on his body.

At this moment, a group of people walked over one after another.

"Thank you, General Lin, for saving us."

"It's fortunate that General Lin acted, otherwise we would all be dead."

"General Lin is truly amazing to have killed him even when his skills and attributes were sealed."

At this moment, this group of people all transformed into Lin Moyu's supporters.

Each and every one of them admired Lin Moyu to the point of prostration.

Ling Yizhan said to Lin Moyu, "You saved me again."

Lin Moyu shook his head. "As fellow humans, there is no need for such formalities."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately won the favor of the crowd, leading to another round of flattery.

After being maintained for a period of time, the Soul-Extinguishing Barrier finally vanished.

The group had rested enough and adjusted their states, continuing to move forward.

Zhou Lesheng's corpse remained here forever, becoming fertilizer for the orchard.

This time, it was Lin Moyu's turn to lead the way.

Everyone followed honestly behind Lin Moyu; no one dared to surpass him.

Lin Mohan said with a smile, "Little Yu, you are now very imposing. Should I call you Little Yu or General Lin in the future?"

Lin Moyu said, "Sister, please stop teasing me."

Lin Mohan sighed. "Fine, fine. You're just a dull blockhead, not fun at all. Let's go tease little Yiyi instead."

In the Ancestral Land, everyone relies on their own abilities, and there is not much competition.

Zhou Lesheng almost killed everyone this time; this grudge had been noted.

With Zhou Lesheng dead, the grudge was counted against the Zhou Family.

After returning, they would definitely have to settle accounts with the Zhou Family.

After passing through the orchard, a cliff appeared before the group.

Ahead, there was only a suspension bridge leading into the depths of the clouds and mist.

The group stopped in front of the cliff. Lin Mohan said, "Once we step onto this bridge, the second stage will begin."

"From here on, we will have to separate. How far we can ultimately go depends on ourselves."

"You should all be clear on the specific rules. Good luck."

Everyone was clear on the rules.

The previous forest and orchard were the first stage; now, the second stage begins.

People who had been here before were somewhat vague when they returned.

Most of their memories were confused, but they had summarized one point.

From here on, one can only rely on oneself.

"Don't push yourselves too hard. Just do your best, and stay safe."

Lin Moyu gave a word of caution and was the first to step onto the suspension bridge, disappearing into the clouds and mist in the blink of an eye.

The wind blew, and the suspension bridge swayed slightly in the air.

Lin Mohan followed onto the suspension bridge and disappeared into the clouds and mist in the blink of an eye.

Next, Mo Yun and Ning Yiyi also followed.

When everyone had stepped onto the suspension bridge, the world fell into silence, with only the sound of the wind whistling.

The orchard made a soft sound, and all the fruits fell to the ground and disappeared.

A crack appeared beneath Zhou Lesheng's corpse, and then a vine curled out and dragged away Zhou Lesheng's corpse.

It didn't even spare the severed limbs.

Afterward, thick fog rose from who knows where, shrouding everything.

Extremely quiet, terrifyingly quiet!

The suspension bridge was not long; after passing through the mist, a platform came into view.

This platform was like an isolated peak, standing between heaven and earth.

The platform was not large, with a diameter of only about twenty meters.

On it stood several stone tablets.

The stone tablets were carved with some patterns, and the patterns were accompanied by text.

The patterns were magical; they were actually alive.

As long as you focused your attention on them, you could see the patterns moving.

The patterns seemed to be demonstrating some kind of skill.

This was a skill belonging to a Swordsman. The demonstrator in the pattern held a longsword, and the sword's momentum was sharp and unparalleled, looking very powerful.

Lin Moyu did not waste too much time on the patterns and turned to look at the text on the side.

The moment he saw the text, Lin Moyu was struck by lightning, stunned on the spot.

[Skill: Wind Slash]

[Wind Slash: Basic Sword Technique, capable of slicing through a breeze.]

The moving patterns did not shock Lin Moyu.

This kind of basic sword technique was even less likely to shock Lin Moyu.

What shocked him was the text.

Familiar Chinese characters.

"No, it's not exactly the same as the Chinese characters I mastered in my previous life."

"They are more archaic, actually looking somewhat like the ancient Chinese characters."

The characters were carved on the stone tablet, vigorous and powerful, containing a unique charm.

If one tried to feel them with their heart, it seemed one could sense the meaning contained within the characters.

Lin Moyu seemed to understand a bit; the goal here was to comprehend and learn the skills on the stone tablets.

This was the test.

Comprehending the skills could be done through the moving patterns or through the text.

With the two combined, comprehending the skills was not particularly difficult.

"It doesn't seem difficult…"

After taking a few glances, Lin Moyu already had a rough understanding and felt that he knew how much time it would take for him to master this skill.

But upon second thought, he realized that he had thought wrong.

He was wrong; for others, it was hard to say.

He had eaten the [Initial Fruit], his attributes had increased, and his hidden attribute of comprehension should have also increased significantly.

Added to that, he could understand the true meaning of the text.

In this way, he would get twice the result with half the effort.

As for others…

"I wonder if the Detection Spell is useful."
