Chapter Eight Hundred and Fifty Five – Conflict

An enormous and blinding green ball of light consumed the thousand people!

Boom!

The burning light was like a sun. People’s vision turned white. In that moment, people only saw the light and couldn’t hear a thing. Time seemed to stop in this moment. Their mouths were wide, their faces pale and their minds blank. When the wave of air rushed at them, they seemed to be whipped and thrown into the air.

The wave of air spread in all directions like an unstoppable herd of beasts.

Silence, deathly silence.

In the sky, Qing Xiao had a blank expression as he looked down. His gaze did not show any pride. He seemed to have just carried out an simple action. This really was not anything major. Qing Xiao had roamed with Zuo Mo in the endless void for so many years. What kind of danger had he not encountered?

Oh, they weren’t dead.

Qing Xiao looked around and then showed an expression of satisfaction. While Silly Bird had beaten Black Gold, she hadn’t killed him. This was an important point.

Yet seeing this calm expression, none one present had any thoughts of fighting back.

The space in front of the gates was in ruins.

More than a thousand people were sprawled out on the ground unconscious. Not even one was standing.

“Who still has objections?” Qing Xiao’s young voice echoed in the sky above the city master’s mansion.

He remembered that Black Gold had been beaten repeatedly by Silly Bird. That incident had left a deep impression on Qing Xiao. Even the most rebellious would be good after being beaten a few times.

Complete silence.

People looked in terror at the figure of the youth in the sky. The remaining shen power fluctuations in the air still caused fear. It was not nether shen power! The youth’s shen power did not have vibrations of nether presence. Some started to speculate about the origins of the youth but no one dared to make a sound. No one doubted that this slightly young-looking youth had the power to flatten all of Wu Ge City.

The youth had clearly restrained himself. The people on the ground were all unconscious but no one had died.

Blood had not flowed but the youth’s astounding control of shen power made people feel even colder. Such a large-scale attack, and such precise control. If they did not see it with their own eyes, they would not believe it.

Had he started cultivating from when he was conceived?

People suddenly thought of that mysterious white-haired elder behind the youth. Many people’s thoughts started to turn lively.

Big leg!

This was a thick and big leg!

Zuo Mo did not care at all about what happened outside.

There wasn’t much information he could gather from Wu Ge City but one thing was confirmed. Up until now, no god-level experts had appeared. Right now, the only things that could threaten Zuo Mo were god-level experts.

Zuo Mo did not feel relaxed. In truth, he was pressured. This indescribable pressure came from Lin Qian. Ever since he heard that Lin Qian had been in seclusion for ten years, Zuo Mo knew that Lin Qian could come out at any time.

If Lin Qian came out, he would definitely be god-level.

Zuo Mo’s body needed time to heal.

Zuo Mo measured his shen power progress and shook his head inwardly. If it continued at this rate, it probably will take him three years to completely recover. In order to seal Wei Sheng and the others, Zuo Mo’s body had been fundamentally damaged, and heavily damaged at that. In order to increase their vitality, almost all of the materials he gained in these ten years had been used on the five coffins and the little ones. Zuo Mo had not progressed at all. He had managed to survive by sheer will.

His body was damaged to the point it could not produce shen power on its own.

The greatest difference in shen power after entering god-level was the process of its burn and refinement. When god-levels fought, their shen power burned like fire but was stable. Their shen power was exponentially more condensed than those not in god-level.

Zuo Mo’s body was in a terrible state but his shen power was fifty times more condensed than before.

In other words, the shen power that he absorbed needed to be compressed fifty times after refinement. Shen power was one of the strongest powers. When other powers were turned into shen power, the amount was already small, and after being refined and compressed, the amount was miniscule.

This was also the reason god-level was powerful. Shen power fifty times more condensed, and their power was a hundred times stronger than shen power before. This was a fundamental difference.

The refined shen power was used to repair Zuo Mo’s body. When Zuo Mo’s body recovered, its ability to produce shen power would also recover, and Zuo Mo’s shen power recovery would quickly increase.

God-levels were one of the strongest beings in the world. This strength didn’t just come from their power, even their bodies were powerful. The ability of their bodies to produce shen power surpassed the shen formations on Zuo Mo’s chariot. If Zuo Mo’s body was completely recovered, he could refine shen power to a hundred times. However, if the body of a god-level was damaged, it also needed refined shen power.

Zuo Mo’s body was like that. Shen power that was not compressed fifty times was not of any use to his body.

It was too slow relying just on the power that the chariot absorbed from the world.

He had to think of a way.

At this time, a servant reported that the city master was visiting. The ten servants that Qing Xiao had picked had started to work without needing any orders. Qing Xiao had made good choices. Zuo Mo had even found an ancient bloodline in one of them. However, he did not plan on spending much energy on these people. He gave them to Qing Xiao to train. It was a way for him to gain experience.

Zuo Mo decided to see this city master.

“Junior greets Elder!” The city master bowed respectfully. “We are a little rural town, we do not know manners. If there is something we lack in our care, Elder, please have tolerance.”

Then he took out a grey piece of wood the thickness of an arm and presented it with two hands. He said respectfully. “This is Nether Ghost Yin Heavy Wood, Elder, please accept it.”

Zuo Mo beckoned and that grey wood landed in his hands. This wood was not eye-catching but it was extremely heavy, as hard as steel and filled with nether energy.

Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. It was the first time he encountered materials of this kind. After studying it for a few moments, he felt that this item was a good treasure.

He put the Nether Ghost Yin Heavy Wood in the ring and said straightforwardly, “This is good and I will accept it. What is your request?”
