Chapter 19: Chapter 18 Growth in Desperate Situations
"Master... Master... The monster's coming, save me!"
"If you don't save me now, your disciple will die!"
"Your lineage will end!"
As Chu Mo ran, he yelled out loud, appearing extremely pitiful.
However, in the process of fleeing, he naturally displayed a specific footwork from the numerous mnemonics he had learnt.
This footwork was something he had just experimented with from among those mnemonics two days ago.
He knew it was a light body technique, but similarly, this footwork, like the boxing technique, was very profound and difficult to understand.
Chu Mo had given up at the time, planning to practice it after he had fully learned the boxing technique.
Unexpectedly, in the process of escaping, his maximum potential was directly stimulated, and he utilized it without understanding it, it just naturally came into play!
This footwork was quite powerful. Once Chu Mo used it, he found that his speed was more than twice as fast as before!
Keep in mind, he had just executed it, not mastered it!
But there was no time for joy, because after his speed increased, that damn Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python... unexpectedly also sped up!
"Were you just taking a stroll just now? Damn it!"
Chu Mo was so angry that smoke was coming out of his nostrils, so he couldn't help but shout for help.
In his opinion, there was no shame in this. His life was in danger, what else could he do if not shout for help?
The Demon Lord in the sky watched with a mixture of laughter and tears, thinking that his disciple was extremely talented, had exceptional foundations, and most importantly, was far smarter than him!
Speaking of perseverance and stubbornness, even the Demon Lord admired Chu Mo's relentless spirit. With his methods, he couldn't make him submit.
If it weren't for using a bit of strategy, along with the fools of Longevity Heaven being blind to talent, Seventh Elder repaying kindness with grudges... It would have been nearly impossible to make this young man his disciple.
Therefore, if anyone called Chu Mo an unprincipled, fearful, and cowardly person, the Demon Lord would be the first to disagree.
But the boy also happened to be extremely clever, knowing how to use momentum and utilize everything to protect himself!
When he should fight hard, he would go all out, but when he should slack off, he wouldn't waste an ounce of energy!
Such a person both annoyed and endear him!
Only such a person could go further!
After the Demon Lord swallowed the Seven-Turned Immortal Pill, his essence energy underwent a huge change instantly. The previous state of decay had completely disappeared from his body.
His vitality was restored to its peak state in an instant.
His entire body was as if enshrouded by a nebulous aura.
Seemed like an immortal!
Hearing Chu Mo's call for help, he grumpily conveyed a divine consciousness over, "Idiot! Is that boxing technique you learned for display?"
Boom!
Chu Mo felt a light flash in his head as he was running and slapped his thigh, "I am also a capable person!"
"Didn't I comprehend one of the three boxing moves?"
"How could I be so stupid and forget about that?"
Demon Lord's divine consciousness was very cunning, Chu Mo never realized that he used that and was guided by his master.
Chu Mo turned his head and yelled at the Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python chasing behind him, "Hey, I tell you big worm, if you chase me again, I won't be polite!"
Thud!
The relentless Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python showed no signs of retreating. It spat out another breath of cold air on Chu Mo, turning into an ice sculpture a large tree that would take three or four people to encircle.
Bang!
The python's powerful body then hit the large tree hard, smashing the frozen tree to pieces.
The shards of ice almost splattered on Chu Mo!
"Alright, people tend to bully the kind ones. Wait for me to skin you and make soup out of your meat!"
Chu Mo gritted his teeth, displayed his footwork, and unexpectedly turned around and rushed toward the Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python.
He raised his hand and threw a punch.
"Die you beast!"
The young woman in blue who was prepared to save Chu Mo to win his gratitude just scoffed.
"Hmph, this lady really wants to know, when you find out that this lady is your savior, what expression will you have!"
The woman in blue raised her eyebrows triumphantly, about to act, but then she froze in surprise.
Because, the young man had made a move!
The Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python that had been chasing Chu Mo was stunned when it saw the boy rushing towards it. In its red eyes, a light flashed with extreme disdain.
It slowed its body a bit, and its strong tail came whizzing past Chu Mo.
"Energy, originates in the elixir field, matures in Dubhe, fortifies in Heavenly Pond..."
"Passing through Heavenly Spring, Marsh, Ximen, Inner Gate, Dahling... Labor Palace."
"Finally, converging in Shaoze, Guanchong, Zhongchong, Shangyang, Shaoshang places..."
"Hit with spiral force..."
Chu Mo shouted.
Bang!
This punch, collided fiercely with the tail of the Red-Eyed Cold Ice Python.
Just as the girl in blue opened her mouth in shock and was about to rush to save Chu Mo...
That powerful tail, capable of snapping a large tree with ease, was actually... exploded by Chu Mo's punch!
A burst of blood appeared in the void.
The girl in blue was so shocked by this scene that she almost forgot to breathe.
Her eyes were full of incredulous expressions.
After Chu Mo's successful punch, his confidence surged. He stepped on the steps he had just learned but not yet mastered, heading directly for the python's neck.
Hit the snake at seven inches!
The weak point of this giant python is also right there!
Its strong and powerful tail was exploded by a punch, and the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent let out a painful hiss, accompanied by endless rage!
But before it could turn around, it felt the strong stench of death closing in.
This fourth order Primordial Beast, with high intelligence, didn't run away when faced with danger. Instead, "shua", it raised all the scales on its neck!
The scales, about the size of Chu Mo's palm, each glinted with cold light, sharp as a knife!
Enough to deter any enemy intending to attack its weak point!
But Chu Mo didn't retreat in the slightest.
This was a time of life and death; one moment of hesitation could change everything!
Chu Mo gritted his teeth: "Little bug...die already!"
Once again, he used the first skill from the three punch techniques, striking ferociously at the raised...sharp knife-like scales!
The so-called top-notch technique is one that pushes the use of primordial force to the limit, displaying its power...to the greatest degree!
Common techniques, which could muster between 30% to 40% of the primordial force, are already considered good.
But the one Chu Mo cultivated was pushing up to 90% and above!
The sharp scales easily cut Chu Mo's fist, and blood... began to flow instantly.
But Chu Mo's heavy punch...also landed fiercely on the weak spot of this Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent.
Boom!
A muffled noise.
The immense primordial force from the punch exploded into the giant python's neck.
The flesh and blood were suddenly smashed into a mess.
Blood vessels burst, and the flesh shattered!
The aggressive primordial force rampaged in the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent, making this fourth rank Primordial Beast go insane!
The huge body twisted violently, and with a bang, Chu Mo was sent flying.
But this Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent, under Chu Mo's punch, had lost most of its vitality.
Even though it was still convulsing on the ground, it was nothing more than a final struggle before death.
Chu Mo was thrown more than ten meters away and fell into the bushes, feeling as if his body had been torn apart.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he cursed loudly, "Damn thing, you want to take me down with you before you die? How naive! Do you think I could be killed by your attack? Keep dreaming!"
With that, he got up as if nothing had happened and walked towards the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent.
However, if you looked closely, you'd notice that Chu Mo's clothes, full of dust and grass cuttings, were completely soaked at the back!
His legs were trembling slightly as he walked.
That blow just now... had also drained the young boy of almost all his strength!
The blue-dressed girl hiding in the dark, still had awe in her eyes, looking at Chu Mo's bleeding hand, she was left speechless.
She initially thought Chu Mo was a coward, but when he erupted, he was incredibly wild!
So ruthless!
"What a terrifying little monster!"
It took her a while to regain her composure. In her eyes, looking at Chu Mo, there was a hint of respect.
From above the clouds, the Demon Lord glanced at Chu Mo and sneered, "Stupid!"
He then turned around and left.
Chu Mo glanced at his right hand which was still bleeding, and his teeth were clenched, he muttered curses as he walked towards the giant python: "Come, take another bite!"
"Do you think I'm a mouse just because I keep a low profile?"
"Why can't you just stay put in the water? What are you doing coming out?"
"Do you think you can survive on land?"
"You have lost your life here, are you happy now?"
Pff...
The girl in the blue dress couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into laughter.
Chu Mo used the footwork, abruptly turning around. For a moment, a cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
The little primordial force left in his body boiled instantly, and he was ready to throw another punch at any time!
When he saw the girl in the blue dress, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Why are you still following me?"
"Hmph, who said you own this mountain? Why should you care where I go?" The girl in the blue dress raised her face arrogantly, looked at Chu Mo sideways and sneered: "Just now I don't know who was crying and shouting for help. What, getting cocky now?"
Chu Mo's face turned a little awkward, he rolled his eyes and said, "So what? Didn't I still kill it?"
"He who laughs last, laughs best!"
"Just luck."
"Killing a little snake makes you a king? Such ignorance!"
The girl in the blue dress walked over, kicked the still convulsing body of the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent with her foot and said with disdain, "Fourth order beast, doesn't even have a Beast Dan. Its only valuable part is the meat, which can slightly increase one's physical strength. Other than that, worthless."
Chu Mo didn't bother arguing with her. Back in the day, after stripping down the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent and selling it in Yanhuang City, he made a good profit from it.
His grandfather used the collected money to help those injured soldiers, providing their families with enough food and clothing for a lifetime.
So, how was it worthless in the mouth of this blue-dressed girl?
"Help me out." Chu Mo pointed to the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent: "Skin it, extract its tendons and remove the bones."
"So disgusting!" The girl in the blue dress jumped away like a rabbit: "You're asking a girl to do this?"
Chu Mo scoffed, took out a sharp short knife from his bag and began the gruesome task himself: "If you won't help then don't, why are you chattering so much? Isn't this the kind of place where you, being a girl, should be?"
Despite it being dead, the skin of the Red-eyed Cold Ice Serpent was still extremely tough, making Chu Mo's task quite difficult.
The girl in the blue dress looked at Chu Mo's grimacing face, thought for a while, walked over and unwillingly said, "Give me the knife."
