Omnipotent Overlord

The huge boar raved for five kilometers, all while its bulk got ever smaller. When it stopped shrinking, it was no bigger than a piglet.

Zhu Dagang got off the piglet and gasped on his knees.

He wouldn’t have run from his advantageous position if not for the fault in his secret art. He couldn’t fight even if he wanted to now.

“The second on the Heaven Board is not average in the least.”

In the middle of catching his breath, Zhu Dagang was startled by a voice.

Xin Hongzhu walked out of a tree.

“Damn wench, don’t you dare come here!”

Zhu Dagang was stumbling on all fours in fear.

“Oh my, boss Boar, where did all that bravado has gone to I wonder? You must’ve killed fifty people by now so how come you turned into a weak child all of a sudden?”

“I am a child, a big child. I only ask that you spare me!”

Zhu Dagang kowtowed. His secret art gave him incredible power, but now it ended and the same went for his qi reserves. It’d be odd if he wasn’t scared of Xin Hongzhu when he was just another normal person now.

“Don’t you worry. I have no interest in killing you.”

Xin Hongzhu rested her hand on Zhu Dagang’s head and a blue light enveloped her.

Xin Hongzhu’s move looked the same as when Li Mo used Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art. 

Zhu Dagang trembled. Xin Hongzhu only took back her hand when his face was drained of blood.

“You damn wretched skank…” Zhu Dagang snorted.

In Xin Hongzhu’s hand, a black qi mass the size of a basketball rested. It was Zhu Dagang’s cultivation.

Xin Hongzhu took out a jade bottle and stored Zhu Dagang’s qi inside.

“Boss Zhu, I only took 90% of your cultivation while leaving you with some to live. Yet you’re still cussing? Are you perhaps that eager to be sucked dry?”

“N-no, I was wrong!” Zhu Dagang’s deplorable mind was still fine.

Xin Hongzhu pursed her lips, throwing one last sweet smile at him.

Zhu Dagang was scared witless.

Xin Hongzhu entered a tree and was gone.

“Stinking trollop! Damn it all!” Boss Boar resumed cursing.

On the mountain, Gui Henian, Xin clan’s brothers and the rest of the experts reached a consensus. That of entering the time-space trove together and split the haul evenly.

“Kid, who are you?”

“Leave before I get angry!”

Just before they entered, someone found Li Mo standing right in front of the time-space trove.

He had been standing there ever since he kicked boss Boar. But because the rest were consulting over ‘cooperating’, none realized. 

Li Mo said, “How are you all going to split it if there’s only one item?”

“One? How do you know?”

“B*******! Since it’s a trove, then there’s definitely a lot more inside. There’s no way it’s just one!”

“Yeah, the kid must be trying to make us fight each other. Don’t let him fool you!”

“Don’t listen to him. Let’s deal with him first then split the haul.”

Seeing them surrounding him, Li Mo said, “It doesn’t seem you understood me.”

“Who do you think you are? Why would we even care about your meaning?”

“How ridiculous, he thinks he’s some bigshot.”

“You think you’re the like of Daoist Kame or Xin clan?”

“Stop wasting time and kill him already!”

Li Mo was blunt, “What I mean is that I don’t plan on splitting anything. If you value your life, leave!”

“Hilarious! You think yourself boss Boar?”

“Kill him!”

Hum~

Suddenly, four curtains of light were erected around them.

“What’s this supposed to be?”

“What is that?”

“Is this perhaps an array?”

“What’s going on?”

Everyone panicked.

Someone touched the curtain and found it rock-solid.

“We can’t break it!”

“We’re stuck here!”

“This is the Black Tortoise Array.”

Daoist Kame’s shout drowned the other’s cries of anxiety.

“One of the four sacred arrays, Black Tortoise Array excels in defense. No one can get in or out except the user. The only way to leave is to defeat him.”

“Daoist Kame, that’s all it does?”

“Yes. The Black Tortoise Array’s only effect is to erect strong light curtains.”

“That’s not scary at all!”

“Ha-ha-ha, scared me to death.”

“Kill the kid and it will be removed!”

“Charge!”

The crowd got excites as they shot for Li Mo.

Li Mo put out his hands and shouted.

One could see with the naked eye how everyone’s qi was robbed by Li Mo. The closer they were to him the faster the absorption.

“I can’t control my qi…” The ones in front stopped and cried over the loss.

“Qi Pilfering Art, it’s Xin clan’s Qi Pilfering Art!”

“No, the Qi Pilfering Art is used on one target.”

“Is he from your Xin clan?”

The people withdrew fifteen meters away from Li Mo, just where the range of his absorption ended.

The sixth Xin was also bewildered.

“Most certainly not. My clan’s Qi Pilfering Art and his are similar but they are fundamentally different. Also, why would he fight us if he was with us?”

Someone cried out, “Oh no, his range is growing!”

Li Mo spread his arms and the range grew to 20 meters…

The people scurried away.

They realized the crux of the matter. Li Mo set up the Black Tortoise Array to trap them inside.

Sixth Xin said, “Don’t panic. His art is peculiar and different from ours but he can’t move while he engages in it. I believe this point is common for both of them.”

“If he moves, it stops the absorption? Then what are we waiting for?”

“All together now!”

“Charge!”

A crowd was upon Li Mo again.

Thump!

Thump!

Fire fists, ice fists, lightning fists, blades, spears, swords…

Myriads of attacks were aimed at Li Mo.

Li Mo didn’t budge, taking them all!

He would much like to move, but Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art didn’t allow it. It shared the same demerit as Xin clan’s Qi Pilfering Art.

Did you think Li Mo set up this trap and called out to all of them if he was not sure of success?

The answer was a resounding no!

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Dozens of hits landed all over Li Mo but his legs were rooted to the spot, not budging an inch.

Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art’s body refining raised one’s toughness to that of a sacred beast of ages long passed if completed. How could mere Spirit Stage cultivators even harm the likes of Li Mo?

“See how I kick his balls!”

An expert cultivating a golden leg-type art sent a flying kick at Li Mo right below the belt.

Clang!

Metal screeching resounded on impact, and the golden leg expert was rolling on the floor and hugged his leg while screaming.

“He’s a eunuch!” The man shouted.

With the kick showing no promise, the people resumed the bombardment on Li Mo…
