My mom is waiting for treatment, and you're summoning me to be a hero?

The moment the last "okay" was uttered, Lin Mo moved!

Instead of rushing towards the illusion, he suddenly plunged the black sword in his hand into the ground in front of him!

Om-!

The black sword emitted a deep, resonant hum, and the inconspicuous dark patterns on its blade suddenly glowed with an eerie light.

At the same time, Lin Mo's nearly four thousand points of physical strength and the defense enhanced by the [Sword Steel] skill seemed to have found an outlet, and were unleashed by the black sword in a frenzied manner!

【Sword Steel - Active Release】!

Centered on Lin Mo, an invisible yet powerful aura, as heavy as a mountain, suddenly erupted!

That's not physical strength or mental power.

Rather, it is an indestructible aura transformed purely from the concept of ultimate physical defense!

A massive, crescent-shaped sword aura, visible to the naked eye and measuring 5 meters in length, suddenly appeared.

It swept forward in a fan shape, close to the ground!

Wherever the sword energy passed, the space seemed to be slightly distorted by its heavy and sharp texture.

The pebbles on the ground silently turned into dust.

The thick fog was like snow that had been heated to a red-hot iron; it was instantly evaporated and dispersed!

Those two lifelike illusions shattered completely before the pure energy blade, without even a scream, leaving not a trace of their spirit.

Within a radius of several dozen meters ahead, the fog cleared up instantly!

The steep mountain wall behind it was revealed, along with a dark cave entrance that constantly emitted thick fog!

That is the true lair of the Demon King!

As the fog dissipated, Shi Xuan also regained consciousness.

He only saw Lin Mo's back as he headed straight for the cave.

"Hey! Wait for me!"

Shi Xuan was startled and took off after him.

Lin Mo's figure shot straight into the dark cave entrance like an arrow released from a bow.

The cave is not straight, but meanders downwards, with slippery rock walls.

The light had almost completely disappeared; only a faint glimmer of light filtering through the opening was swallowed up by darkness a few meters away.

But for Lin Mo, the nearly four thousand spiritual attributes and the soul perception brought by the black sword were enough to outline a general path in his mind.

Blood also flew out from his collar at just the right moment.

Its small body emitted a soft yet highly penetrating dark red light, illuminating an area several meters in front of it.

It dispelled some of the unsettling darkness.

Not far ahead, the passage suddenly widened, forming a space resembling a hall.

Two giant statues, each three meters tall and made of a mixture of rough rock and twisted tree roots, stand on either side of the passageway.

When Lin Mo stepped into this area.

Suddenly, a ghostly green light shone from the stone eye sockets of the two statues, as if they had come to life.

They simultaneously turned their heavy heads to face Lin Mo, and spoke in unison in a solemn tone:

"Intruders, listen to the rules!"

"Between the two of us, one only knows how to state the truth, and the other only knows how to fabricate lies. You can ask us a question..."

"I'll ask your mom!"

However, before they could finish speaking, Lin Mo interrupted them with a shout.

What greeted them was Lin Mo's dark sword light, which charged forward without pause and even accelerated by three points!

Lin Mo was too lazy to even think about the logic game of truth and falsehood.

All he wants now is to find that beast who dared to use his parents' image to bewitch him as quickly as possible!

Then chop him into minced meat!

The sword light flashed like a bolt of lightning, sweeping across the area!

A powerful sword aura swept across, generating a buzzing sound.

*Pfft! Boom!*

Two stone giants that have just come back to life.

Before it could even make any defensive or offensive stance, it was cut in half by the terrifying sword energy!

The upper half of its body crashed to the ground with a thud, scattering large amounts of gravel and broken roots.

The eerie green light in his eyes vanished instantly.

So-called rules, problems, and distinctions... become a joke in the face of absolute power.

Shi Xuan, who rushed in right after, witnessed the two giants' upper bodies crashing into the dust.

Shi Xuan's lips twitched involuntarily.

He swallowed back the warnings he almost blurted out, such as "Beware of traps and mechanisms."

Telling Mr. Lin all this... seems a bit redundant.

He could only shake his head with a wry smile, quicken his pace to catch up, and carefully avoid the mess on the ground.

The passages deeper into the cave become more complex, with branching paths beginning to appear.

The intense illusion energy almost solidified, constantly trying to distort Lin Mo's perception.

The rock wall in front of you may suddenly turn into a bottomless abyss.

The path beneath your feet will suddenly disappear and turn into surging lava.

Even more mournful cries and vicious curses rang in my ears.

Even from time to time, images of previously slain monsters, Matt, and even the King of Ancient Wood City would appear.

However, all of this was far less effective in the face of Lin Mo's rage.

His will was as firm as iron, and his goal was clear. Whenever an illusion appeared, he didn't bother to distinguish between reality and illusion, and simply swept it away with a single sword strike!

Yin Xue flapped its little wings and followed closely.

The lighting, amidst the violently swaying light and shadow, illuminated Lin Mo's rapidly moving figure in a bizarre and fantastical way.

Finally, after violently breaking through the last barrier of thorns and pale bones, a clear view appeared before them.

They reached the deepest part of the cave.

This is a huge natural cave.

Countless pale white stalactites hung from the cave ceiling.

The ground was relatively flat, with a mat in the center made of some kind of animal fur and decaying plants.

It formed a rough nest.

In the center of the nest, a dark figure crouched.

Lin Mo's figure stopped the moment he entered the cave.

The black sword was pointed directly at the dark figure, and a chilling voice boomed through the empty cave, filled with undisguised killing intent: "Bastard! Prepare to die!"

The blood-red illumination orb flew forward, clearly illuminating the true form of the dark figure.

It was not the ferocious and terrifying behemoth that had been expected.

Instead, it was a rabbit that was about two meters tall and could stand upright?

However, this rabbit's skin was jet black, as if it had been soaked in ink.

Large patches of hair that should have been fluffy fell out.

It reveals the rough, wrinkled, dark skin underneath.

Its ears drooped limply, and its eyes were a cloudy, dark red.

At this moment, Lin Mo slashed down with his sword, and the thick sword light completely enveloped the Summoning Demon Beast King.

squeak!

A scream came from the flash of the sword.

Then the Beast King's body suddenly detached.

At this point, there was almost no intact flesh on its body.

Its skin was covered with countless wounds, and with every step it took, a piece of rotten flesh would fall off.

But instead of running away, it headed towards a corner deep inside the cave.

He lay prone on the ground in an extremely bizarre posture, his eyes revealing a hint of madness.

A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Mo's eyes.

There, a layer of golden lichen grows on the rocky ground.

There were also several plants around the lichen that were clearly growing better.

When Yin Xue arrived and her gaze fell upon the layer of golden lichen, her small body trembled violently.

"That's... the 'Golden Amplifier'?!"
