Li Mo was out of bonds again.
This time, he was going to do more extensive research before proceeding to the execution phase.
Deng Chanyu and Nezha never strayed from the pattern. With each added defeat, Nezha’s face turned blacker and bluer, yet his spiritual qi and body state were unaffected.
‘Waiting for them to wear out is unfeasible.’
Li Mo frowned, sitting in lotus position as he regulated his breathing.
Ten minutes later, the blue spiritual qi within roamed, gathering atop his head in the form of three blue flowers.
The flowers flickered, but finally hovered there like they were real.
“It is a bit hard doing the Five Qi Convergence Art at the fourth level, but it should barely hold two-three times. I hope.”
Li Mo stood up.
Afar, Deng Chanyu and Nezha’s fight once again reached a conclusion. Deng Chanyu threw her stone and Nezha was soon fleeing.
Hum~
Li Mo flashed before her and punched.
He didn’t use any spiritual qi this time, relying only on his body. But the five color shield naturally appeared once again.
From the first attempt, Li Mo guessed Deng Chanyu’s treasure not only worked to defend but also launch a physical attack.
“Five Qi Convergence Art!”
With his shout, the three blue flowers on his head exploded, falling on the ground like stars.
Hum~
The five stars turned into five Li Mos besides the original. They were all identical in every way.
The Five Qi Convergence Art was an almighty powerful art that allowed one’s five qis to turn into five people, and all having the same power as the original.
Five Qi Convergence Art was the second secret art of humanity, standing on the same level as the Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art. But the Five Qi Convergence Art Li Mo knew was incomplete. It wasn’t like the legends described, with the three flowers blooming and turning into five bodies.
Gathering power for so long didn’t mean the art would work. But what mattered the most now, was exactly how long it would last…
Pu~
The five bodies were just alive for one second when four of them turned into blue smoke.
Only one remained.
Li Mo had his other body use Warp behind Deng Chanyu to make a pincer attack on her.
Li Mo himself had his fist blocked by the five-colored shield, but his other body managed to throw Deng Chanyu off her horse.
Deng Chanyu’s Five Colored Immortal Apparel could withstand all attacks, but needed a few seconds between activations. This was what Li Mo found from his observations.
Rip~
Li Mo’s second body tore off her breastplate, then removed the Five Colored Immortal Apparel while it was on cooldown!
Li Mo and his second body then started attacking Deng Chanyu with a flurry of blows…
Deng Chanyu had no Five Colored Immortal Apparel, but her body was still stronger than average. Even so, she couldn’t last long against the two Li Mo’s assault, falling unconscious.
Pff…
The next second, the last body double also went up in blue smoke.
At least this one completed his mission with flying colors.
“Who knew that damaged art would actually work?”
Li Mo sighed. He believed the damaged Five Qi Convergence Art was useless, but evidence showed the contrary. This was the very first time he trained and used it.
Li Mo took the Five Colored Immortal Apparel and Five Colored Stone off Deng Chanyu and put them in the Star Ring.
Without them, Deng Chanyu was no match for Li Mo.
Li Mo then moved far away while carrying Deng Chanyu.
Not long after, Nezha with his black and blue face came storming down, but this time, there was no Deng Chanyu to meet him.
Li Mo went to the time-space rupture entrance. After a moment of deep reflection, he chose to not take Deng Chanyu through.
This world may be tiny, but he’d be coming back if his choice was wrong. Who was to say the next time he used Five Qi Convergence Art it would even work?
If the origin fragment was Nezha, even if he took his weapons away it would’ve been for naught.
“There’s only one way out of this…”
Li Mo’s mind was set…
Deng Chanyu slowly woke up, but it was her turn to be tied up.
“W-who are you?” Deng Chanyu roared.
Without any outside interference, Deng Chanyu and Nezha would keep on fighting for all eternity. But come a meddler and she would react like any normal person.
“I’m a bad man.” Li Mo smiled, showing a toothy grin.
“Let me go, you beast!”
Li Mo waved a finger in front of her eyes.
Li Mo planned on using the Demon race’s Soul Hex Technique to make Deng Chanyu of some use to him.
Deng Chanyu may be stronger than Nezha, but that was with her treasures.
The true and real danger this tiny world posed was in the form of Nezha. With his three heads and six arms, immune to common blades, without Deng Chanyu’s help, not even a successful Five Qi Convergence Art would bring Nezha down.
There was no chance of winning with numbers alone.
Li Mo was dripping sweat, waving his finger for five minutes but Deng Chanyu was still staring blankly.
The Soul Hex Technique had no effect on her.
“The humans of yore aren’t average. My thinking was too simple.”
Li Mo shook his head.
Deng Chanyu may be a common human in body, but her soul was as stable and strong as his.
It would’ve been easy if the target was much weaker, but that couldn’t be said the same when Li Mo and the target were at the same level.
Of course, if it were Demon Emperor, this would’ve been a cinch. While Li Mo’s skill in Soul Hex Technique was just as bad as in the Five Qi Convergence Art. He only picked up the surface knowledge on how to use it from his battle with Demon Emperor.
“How embarrassing…”
Li Mo took out the Underworld Stone then reduced it to brick size. Under the frightened gaze of Deng Chanyu, he started using the brick…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After three hits, Deng Chanyu’s mind was hazy and her soul slackened.
“Round two!”
Li Mo waved a finger before Deng Chanyu’s eyes once again…
