It was also pleasing to the eye, forming a stark contrast with Gu Mo’s current chaotic and unbearably exaggerated combat style.
The sharp cries of the monkey beca increasingly urgent, and the Ape Ghost, now cloaked in darkness, looked at the girl with a mix of anger and fear. While commanding its minions, the Demon Ghosts, to swarm forward, it also wielded a crudely made yet highly lethal javelin, trying to harm the girl.
Perhaps due to its nature, even after becoming a spirit or monster, it couldn’t change. This giant ape’s thod of attack was to leap high and hurl the javelin in its hand at the enemy.
It’s not actually throwing its only weapon away. Instead, it would conjure a javelin made of Demonic Power, making the attack even more powerful and vicious.
However, it was of no use. Each ti the Ape Ghost found a gap to throw its javelin, it failed to hit... No, it did hit sothing. For instance, when the girl’s shadow just vanished, another Demon Ghost happened to pounce savagely at that spot, getting nailed to the ground by the Ape Ghost’s javelin of Demonic Power.
Amidst the tacit collaboration between foes and allies, ordinary Demon Ghosts were slaughtered one after another, and the headless corpses of the burly ones fell one by one, while the girl’s phantom-like figure continued to dart back and forth in the courtyard. Each strike of her blade at Divine Speed was sure to heavily wound or even slay a Demon Ghost.
...
"Tsk tsk..."
At the border where the mountain woods t the mountain path, Gu Mo nodded repeatedly as he watched the scenes unfolding in the shrine. He felt a leisurely yearning and wondered when he could grow to this level.
However, at this mont, it seed Ah Xiu hadn’t yet transford to the fantasy-level of power she would reach in the future. This level of combat prowess didn’t seem too exaggerated. Optimistically estimating, perhaps when Gu Mo invested fourteen or fifteen points into his strength, agility, and physical strength, he might get close to it?
Gu Mo thought so.
Just then, a sudden roar ca from behind.
His heart skipped a beat. He quickly turned around, intending to swing his weapon, but before he could do so, a black shadow crashed into him with trendous force, knocking him to the ground, making stars dance before his eyes, and causing his chest to churn violently. Everything happened so suddenly!
Gu Mo’s thoughts halted for a split second, but his body instinctively struggled. As he fell to the ground, he subconsciously crossed his arms in front of him. The next mont, a crimson, thick arm as robust as an adult’s thigh reached for his head.
The imnse power made his arms go numb in an instant, the bones nearly cracking. His skin was torn open by the sharp claws, and blood gushed out!
But Gu Mo gritted his teeth and held on stubbornly. Ultimately, he didn’t let his head get crushed imdiately. Striving to remain calm amidst the chaos, he saw a ferocious-looking Demon Ghost pressing down on him.
Fortunately, it’s just an ordinary Demon Ghost...
This thought flashed in his mind, so quickly that he didn’t even notice it himself.
At this mont, the recently appeared Demon Ghost roared and lifted its other thick arm to strike down again with a powerful claw. They didn’t have any special abilities, just extraordinary limb strength, exceeding that of normal humans by far. That first claw nearly overwheld Gu Mo’s arms,
"...!!"
His pupils constricted suddenly. Without thinking, Gu Mo exerted all his strength with one arm to resist the pressing Ghost Claw of the Demon while freeing his other hand to quickly grab the nearby fallen katana. Gathering all his energy, he fiercely pierced towards the twin horns on the Demon Ghost’s head ahead of ti!
Sothing in his chest thumped violently, like a drum, as his heart struggled at that mont, almost leaping out of his body.
Having gotten through everything by holding onto coattails, he absolutely didn’t want to fail at the last mont!
