Chapter 688 686: Lifting the Seal
It seems someone has come to back up Mo Di.
Mo Lin is not surprised.
Nowadays, anyone able to establish themselves in the East District certainly has powerful protection.
The clouds floating in the sky are not ordinary; they are Ghost Qi.
In the blink of an eye, the Ghost Qi enveloped the entire sky above the Gen Family.
"Immortal Ghost Skill... This person is Mo Fengxiao, the disciple of the Goddess.
Mo Di's elder brother."
Mo Lin was pondering who had arrived when he heard Yuan Hong's voice from beside him.
Then he saw Mo Fengxiao leaping from mid-air, stepping on a long sword.
There was a sensation of Sword Control flight.
Gourd, fan, fish drum, flower basket, lotus, flute, yin-yang plate—these items were floating beside Mo Fengxiao.
Pitch-black Ghost Qi condensed into tangible form.
"Mo Lin... you dare to kill my brother." Mo Fengxiao roared at Mo Lin.
Mo Di's Life Plate was shattered; Mo Fengxiao knew something had happened to his brother, so he rushed over.
Just a quick glance at the surrounding environment, and Mo Fengxiao guessed Mo Lin was the culprit.
Aside from Mo Lin, no one here could have defeated his brother.
Looking at Mo Fengxiao, Mo Lin instinctively recalled the Eight Immortals Ghost.
He remembered those scenes when he first returned to Jiangzhou, at the Great Spirit Mountain.
"It's Immortal Ghost Technique, an ability on par with Immortal Technique, very powerful... no, extremely powerful.
Be careful." Yuan Hong reminded Mo Lin.
Mo Lin looked at Yuan Hong in surprise, unsure if it was an illusion; Mo Lin felt Yuan Hong suddenly had no animosity towards him.
After Mo Lin announced his name, this Yuan Hong seemed to lose his hostility towards Mo Lin and even seemed concerned about him.
"The Eight Immortals Ghost has already been slain, how did you obtain his Immortal Ghost Technique?" Mo Lin asked a matter he was very concerned about.
Five years ago, the Eight Immortals Ghost had betrayed Mo Lin under Xin Ziruo's influence, at the Celestial Sect battle, where Mo Lin slew the Eight Immortals Ghost.
Why was the Immortal Ghost Skill belonging to the Eight Immortals Ghost now in Mo Fengxiao's possession?
Learning an Immortal Ghost Skill from a vanished ghost is truly incredible.
Mo Fengxiao revealed a strange smile to Mo Lin, clearly unwilling to discuss the Immortal Ghost Skill.
Mo Fengxiao raised his right hand, "Whoosh..."; pitch-black Ghost Qi surged out, sweeping around like a sandstorm.
"Everyone, step back." Mo Lin said to the Gen Family Business people and others.
The Gen Family Business people, along with Yuan Hong and the others quickly retreated, leaving the battle zone.
Only Six-Eared Mingyue stood unmoved at her spot.
Mo Fengxiao's palm slowly descended, the pitch-black Ghost Qi poured over Mo Lin.
Mo Lin gradually raised his hand, the Cyan Cloud Sword waved out.
Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship, "Jingming."
A sword strike cut out, directly slicing through the descending Ghost Qi.
Facing Mo Fengxiao, Mo Lin showed no mercy.
He used his trump card right off.
Mo Fengxiao was not surprised to see Mo Lin break the Ghost Qi with one move.
This man before him caused even his mentor trouble, so it's normal for him to have some prowess.
Mo Fengxiao shifted his actions, utilizing the Immortal Ghost Skill.
Mo Fengxiao raised his right hand, the long sword beneath him transformed into a pitch-black shadow.
This shadow resembled Celestial Monarch Xu's attire but their auras were entirely different.
Pitch-black Ghost Qi condensed into the figure of one of the Eight Immortals, Lv Dongbin.
Lv Dongbin's long sword descended.
The same move, a Sword Qi slash directly broke Mo Lin's "Jingming" move.
Moreover, Mo Lin was forced back dozens of meters.
Mo Lin reacted swiftly, manipulating with his left hand, performing "Jingming Sunlight"
Silver-white light enveloped Mo Fengxiao, but in the next moment, the white light was met by Lv Dongbin's Ghost Shadow and slashed apart.
Mo Lin's Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship gained no advantage in front of Mo Fengxiao.
"Is that all the skill you have?"
Mo Fengxiao mocked Mo Lin: "Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship, just like that."
Mo Fengxiao was not being arrogantly dismissive; he could condense eight ghost shadows.
Currently, just one Lv Dongbin Ghost Shadow was enough to overwhelm Mo Lin. If he condenses the other seven ghost shadows, Mo Lin would not be a match for Mo Fengxiao.
"It's a pity... This Immortal Ghost Skill should belong to you... tsk tsk tsk..." Mo Fengxiao sighed softly.
If the Eight Immortals Ghost hadn't turned treacherous, as Mo Lin's own strength gradually grew, he would surely master some Immortal Ghost Skills of the Eight Immortals Ghost.
Yet... life doesn't offer "if".
Mo Fengxiao waved his hand again, and Lv Dongbin's Ghost Shadow started to expand in mid-air, the long sword overshadowing the sky, slicing down towards Mo Lin.
This strike seemed to cut open the entire heavens and earth.
Mo Lin didn't dare to be careless, he clasped his hands together, behind him, a white Immortal Shadow also began expanding.
Celestial Monarch Xu unleashed a terrifying immortal might, and struck with another sword.
Lv Dongbin's Ghost Shadow shattered directly, and the long sword beside Mo Fengxiao shattered along with it.
Mo Lin directly destroyed the Lv Dongbin Ghost Shadow within his Immortal Ghost Skill.
Just as the long sword was about to make the next move, a twist happened.
A pitch-black gourd appeared, with overwhelming Ghost Qi spilling from the gourd, blocking Celestial Monarch Xu's silhouette.
The Ghost Shadow of Iron-Crutch Li appeared.
Following closely, the Ghost Shadow of Han Zhongli appeared as well, his fan waving.
His fan waved, creating a terrifying gale like blades, sweeping down upon Mo Lin.
Mo Lin struggled to fend off with the Cyan Cloud Sword.
Everyone around could tell Mo Lin was at a disadvantage.
As for why Mo Fengxiao didn't simultaneously condense several other Eight Immortals Ghost Shadows, the reason was simple—the consumption was too great.
Celestial Monarch Xu protected Mo Lin's silhouette.
"Going to lose." Six-Eared Mingyue murmured to herself watching Mo Lin.
She could see at a glance that Mo Lin wasn't performing the Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship.
Mo Lin was wielding the inherited power of Celestial Monarch Xu.
For Mo Lin, the consumption was significant, with beads of sweat increasingly forming on Mo Lin's forehead.
Using the inherited power of Celestial Monarch Xu, Mo Lin was barely defending against Mo Fengxiao.
From afar, both Iron-Crutch Li's Ghost Shadow and Han Zhongli's Ghost Shadow attacked Mo Lin simultaneously, relentlessly suppressing him.
At this point, Mo Lin could only manage a feeble defense, unable even to strike back.
Mo Lin's mastery over Celestial Monarch Xu's inherited power was brief; he couldn't fully unleash its potential.
Mo Fengxiao watched Mo Lin struggle miserably and sneered.
"Too weak..."
It wasn't so much a belittlement of Mo Lin, but rather that Mo Lin was just too weak.
He was nothing like the rumored strength.
Gen Family Business clenched his fists tightly, wishing to help Mo Lin, but lacking the strength.
All he could do was watch Mo Lin being beaten into a sorry state by Mo Fengxiao.
"Mo Lin brother..." Gen Family Business cried towards Mo Lin with heart-wrenching anguish.
"Stop looking so mournful, will you? I haven't lost yet!" Mo Lin retorted teasingly to Gen Family Business.
After speaking, Mo Lin looked towards the distant Six-Eared Mingyue.
"Unseal it for me."
Four clear and concise words, with no extra nonsense.
"Alright." Six-Eared Mingyue nodded, forming seals with her hands, and a cyan-gray light surged into Mo Lin's body.
Mo Lin immediately felt his body lighten by dozens, even hundreds of times.
His vision and hearing heightened several-fold.
Celestial Monarch Xu's figure suddenly became more solid and its aura increased by dozens of times compared to before.
A moment later, a scene that stunned everyone present appeared.
"Whoosh..."
Mo Lin's body erupted with a frightening aura, soaring into the nine heavens, resembling an upside-down waterfall.
Terrifying Ghost Qi appeared, followed by bright red Immortal Qi, and then Dao Qi—all colors intertwining, condensing into rainbow-like hues.
The seal was lifted.
Centering on Mo Lin, terrifying power condensed into tangible form, rainbow-like colors swirled like smoke billowing from a chimney.
Mo Lin's strength reached an unprecedented peak at this moment.
The black Ghost Qi enveloping mid-air was instantly dispersed.
