Chapter 78 Something's Wrong

Bai Mo glanced at Ding Yumin's hair. Her hair was as smooth and black as ever, but it made her face look somewhat pale.

Reaching out to take the hair ring, Bai Mo put it on his wrist and looked at the girl in front of him, saying, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Afterwards, the two walked along the school path. Seeing that it was getting late and both needed to cultivate, they went back to their respective residences.

……

In a single student apartment building in a college on the main campus, Ye Zaojun, whose ears drooped slightly, dragged his luggage out of the apartment building. Looking at the familiar street scene at night, the basketball court next door was bustling, but he felt unusually lonely.

He has already graduated from the college, and Dean Li has given him the repatriation documents and graduation certificate.

This would be something that all Mingzhu students would be happy about if it happened to any other student.

But Ye Zao Jun felt that the world was so big, and he had nowhere to go. He didn't understand why Dean Li wanted him to leave; he was planning to apply to become an internship mentor at the academy.

But the formalities had already been completed, and Yezhaojun dragged his suitcase out.

"Night Kitchen God!" A magnetic and gentle voice called out to him.

"Dean Li has given you a task. If you can complete it, the college may consider making you our college's internship mentor."

Night Kitchen God twitched his ears, turned around, took the mission information handed to him, and read it carefully.

"Why did Dean Li ask me to do this?"

"Don't ask so many questions, you just need to make a choice!"

……

The next day, the sun shone brightly, illuminating the woods and fields outside the city of Shanghai.

The giant paw raccoon demons do not like overly flat plains, but their forests have been taken over by humans.

Although it had always wanted to reclaim its home, it chose a place far away from Jiufeng Mountain in order to avoid being hunted down by human mages.

It slept in a sunny spot in the woods, and none of the surrounding raccoons dared to breathe loudly.

Standing atop a tall tree a hundred meters away from the raccoon den, Bai Mo turned to Mei Qian and Zhou Tianyuan and said:

"Tianyuan, Meiqian, if any of the Dust Wind Badgers try to escape later, please stop them for me. Be careful and act within your capabilities!"

"Okay, don't worry, but I can't stop many of them."

"Don't worry, none of them will escape!" Mei Qian clenched her fist. It was her first time in the wild as a hunter, and she was quite excited.

"it is good."

With a casual gesture, the moon-white starlight cleaved a dark, cold, and silent rift in the tranquil space, summoning spirits from another dimension.

"Little Wind Spirit, do you see those raccoon demons? In a moment, transform into a wall of wind and surround them all."

Pointing to the raccoon demons slowly moving about a hundred meters away, Bai Mo spoke to the wind spirit hovering around him.

This area is much larger than the small square that the Wind Spirit originally surrounded, so the Wind Spirit's winds might not be able to stop every Dust Wind Beast. However, inflicting more damage on the fleeing Dust Wind Beasts and giving Mei Qian and Zhou Tianyuan outside more time to react will be enough.

"Hmm!" Feng Ling nodded seriously, indicating that she understood.

"Rustling sound~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!"

The rustling sound of the grass and leaves being blown grew louder and louder, and the rising wind spread out beneath Bai Mo's feet, making him float up as lightly as a feather.

The wind quietly left trails in the forest, covering almost every part of the forest, allowing him to fly freely through the forest.

Mei Qian only felt a blur before her eyes, a gentle breeze brushed her bangs, and before she could even see a fleeting image, Bai Mo was already a hundred meters away near a dust raccoon at the very edge.

A string of silver starlight illuminated his eyes, causing the air to emit a barely perceptible sword hum. Blood gushed out, his head pierced through, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Fenghao collapsed to the ground, his dark eyes still filled with confusion at the sudden appearance of the silver light.

The smell of death and blood, like gunpowder, instantly set the woodland abuzz with excitement.

"dumb---!"

"dumb----!!"

"dumb------!!!"

A demonic aura permeated the air, its roar echoing through the forest like waves crashing against the surrounding space. Trees swayed, birds took flight in fright, unable to withstand the raging fury.

"Misaki~~~~~~~!!!"

With an even louder roar, the giant paw raccoon demon in the center opened its enormous, lantern-like blood-red eyes, which blazed with bloodlust, cold indifference, brutality, and savagery.

With a long, drawn-out hiss, the giant paw-shaped raccoon demon looked at the human with a sinister and mocking gaze, issuing an order for its people to tear apart the human mage who had trespassed into their territory and killed their kind.

Upon hearing the command, the dust raccoons, those further away, tore through the air and crashed through the trees, charging towards Bai Mo one after another. Those closer kicked up clouds of dust with their limbs, their enormous mouths opening wide, their long, yellowish fangs snapping at Bai Mo as if to tear him apart and devour him in an instant.

A buzzing sound of spatial tremors arose, and seven points of starlight illuminated Bai Mo's body. With a thought, silver light drew a straight line.

The surging spatial power instantly transformed into seven cold, sharp swords. Following Bai Mo's thoughts, they pierced the heads of the seven attacking Dust Wind Raccoons with a piercing sound.

Bai Mo discovered long ago that the Mind Control Illusion Sword was constructed from star projections, with spatial power forming its shape, before it was released.

Otherwise, to create a sword using only spatial power would require a higher level of spiritual attainment.

Drawing seven star trails at once is not difficult for him, but the difficulty is different from connecting seven star trails to draw a special star map.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle!!"

Seven sounds of swords piercing flesh pierced the air in succession, and seven streams of blood, like blood swords, shot out, splashing onto the dust raccoon behind them and staining a large area of ​​the ground red.

"dumb----!"

The piercing, disturbing cries emanated from the mouths of the surrounding dust raccoons. The dripping blood fully ignited their ferocity, and they swarmed around Bai Mo, charging towards him together.

Bai Mo's attention was fixed on his giant paw raccoon demon. No matter how many servant-level creatures came, they were no threat to the space-type creatures that excelled in group battles.

As long as one's mental strength is sufficient, even millions of servants can be killed by telekinesis.

Although Bai Mo can't do that level yet, it wouldn't be difficult for him to beat the Chenfeng Wolves who surrounded him to death.

"Buzz...!!!"

The sharp, piercing chirping of cicadas directly drowned out the roars of demons. A surge of intent welled up, and a bright silver light shone from his eyes. A powerful force of repulsion emanated from Bai Mo, like a giant waving his hand or a roc shaking its wings.

The power of space surged, and shockwaves spread in all directions. The immense force sent the surrounding dust bream flying and smashed down those that rushed forward from behind.

Upon seeing this, the playful look in the eyes of the giant palm raccoon demon, who had been watching the show, disappeared, and a hint of apprehension flashed across its eyes.

"Whoosh whoo ...

A sudden, fierce wind arose, whipping up wild grass and withered branches, and the swirling dust in the distance outlined a towering wall of wind. Bai Mo instantly knew that the wind spirits had already formed a wall of wind.

So he stopped holding back completely, facing the giant palm raccoon demon that was still eyeing him menacingly not far away, urging the dust raccoons to attack again, wanting to wear down his demonic energy with servant-level demons, and then waiting for an opportunity to strike.

A brilliant silver light shone in Bai Mo's eyes, and with a flash of light in his hand, the Silver Hairpin Spear appeared. He unleashed his mental control, and spatial power spread out in waves, with him at the center, as countless Dust Wind Raccoons were grasped and suspended by an invisible force.

With a slight swing of his silver spear, pointing it diagonally at the giant palm raccoon demon, as if receiving a command, all the dust raccoons controlled by Bai Mo smashed towards the giant palm raccoon demon.

Facing its kin hurtling towards it with a whooshing sound, the giant-handed raccoon demon dodged it with a quick movement.

"boom!!!!"

With a deafening crash, the earth shattered, creating a large crater, and scattering dirt and stones everywhere. The dust bream that had been thrown to the ground were like smashed watermelons, a mangled mess, red and white pieces scattered in all directions.

Upon seeing this, the servants who had been charging forward immediately cowered and stopped.

"cape!!!"

With a roar, the giant palm raccoon demon commanded the timid dust raccoon to continue its attack on Bai Mo.

It leaped up, its massive, wheel-like form casting a large shadow. A pair of enormous claws, carrying the power to shatter mountains and split the earth, exploded through the air, creating surging shockwaves that pressed down upon it.

Undeterred by the danger, Bai Mo manipulated the space around him, slamming the controlled demons into the dust-wind raccoons rushing towards him. Instantly, like a raging torrent, flames clashed, and the immense force smashed the servants into a bloody mess, breaking their bones and tendons.

A gentle breeze stirred, and the figure vanished. In the blink of an eye, Bai Mo gracefully moved fifty meters to the side, dodging the giant palm-shaped raccoon demon's strike.

"BOOM!!!!!"

The shattered earth churned and scattered like a mud rain, and a pair of millstone-sized hands slammed into a huge crater, appearing where Bai Mo had originally stood.

"The 'windfall trap'!"

Dodging the giant palm raccoon demon's heavy blow, Bai Mo beckoned with his finger towards his original spot.

Without any warning, a gentle breeze first appeared, then suddenly transformed into a towering storm tornado. The tough wind wall trapped the giant palm-shaped raccoon demon within it. The bluish-white tornado, covering more than twenty meters, carried terrifying tearing and suction forces, completely sucking out the air from the area. All the surrounding dust, ash, soil, grass, and branches were lifted, torn apart, and swept into the wind.

Gradually, even the surrounding trees were uprooted by the powerful tearing force and flung into the tornado. The range of the Heavenly Net Wind gradually shrank, and the howling wind grew increasingly sharp. It was like a cutting machine, tearing everything inside to shreds!

The giant raccoon demon stood unmoved amidst the powerful tornado, its four enormous paws planted firmly on the ground, seemingly impervious to even the strongest winds. Yet, the jagged rocks and vegetation in the wind, along with the forceful breath of the wind, left numerous wounds on its body, the wounds fine and dense, cutting its flesh raw and bloody.

Bai Mo looked at the giant paw raccoon demon that hadn't been swept up by the gale and had fallen to the ground. Although it was covered in blood, Bai Mo knew that it was only scary to look at.

This was not fatal to the powerful physique of a warrior-level demon.

A sharp, cold silver light flashed in his eyes as he channeled magical energy into the silver hairpin spear in his hand. As the magical energy flowed in, the spear tip grew brighter and brighter, its light flickering and its sharpness seemingly capable of piercing through the void.

Bai Mo raised his hand and thrust his spear at the head of the giant palm-shaped raccoon demon from a distance.

The sharp and dangerous silver light of the spearhead instantly detached, transforming into a brilliant and cold spear beam that silently distorted the air and pierced straight at the head of the giant palm raccoon demon.

The giant-palm raccoon demon naturally saw this dangerous attack; the silver spear light seemed capable of piercing its pupils with a single glance. Just as the giant-palm raccoon demon was about to dodge, the silver light that had just flown from the spearhead was now right in front of it in an instant.

"Bang!!!"

With a loud bang like a balloon bursting, half the forest exploded as the giant paw raccoon demon's head, as big as a truck cab, shattered. The silver light, undiminished in its power, pierced a deep, long bloody hole in the giant paw raccoon demon's body.

The torrents of blood, like gushing springs, instantly submerged half of the giant palm raccoon demon's body lying on the ground.

Seeing their leader die, the dust bream that were still trying to attack Bai Mo scattered and fled, except for the one closest to Bai Mo that pounced on him.

Bai Mo enveloped the silver hairpin spear with spatial power, flicked his wrist forward, and the silver spear flew out of his hand, directly piercing through the oncoming dust leopard and pinning it to the ground.

His attention, however, was focused on the already dead giant paw raccoon demon.

He flicked his wrist, and a jet-black bracelet on his wrist emitted a soft glow, illuminating a bluish-green spirit on the giant palm-shaped raccoon demon's body. This was a Soul Vessel he had exchanged from the Starfire Network; Bai Mo didn't know its level, but it was the most expensive Soul Vessel he had ever acquired, so it must be quite valuable.

It's more than enough to collect the essence of a mere warrior-level being.

The spirit was contained in the vessel of the dead, and Bai Mo couldn't contain his joy. Now that he had the vessel of the dead, he could also see the remnant spirit.

The remnant souls were useless to him; absorbing them into the vessel of dead souls could only nourish the vessel. Only the essence could be used to feed the stars or sold for money.

Unexpectedly, killing a general resulted in the explosion of his spirit. Just as Bai Mo was marveling at his luck, his eyes shifted to Chen Fenghao, who had been nailed to death by his silver hairpin spear. He was about to retrieve his silver hairpin spear when his gaze suddenly sharpened.

On the lifeless corpse of the Dust Wind Badger, a ghostly green servant-level spirit floated silently!

Bai Mo had completely ignored the scattered dust raccoons. With the Wind Spirit's Wind Wall and the protection of Mei Qian and Zhou Tianyuan, he believed that few raccoon demons would be able to escape.

His figure instantly floated to the side of Chenfenghao's corpse, and as he pulled out the silver hairpin spear, he put away the spirit.

Then Bai Mo looked at the silver hairpin spear in his hand with a suspicious gaze.

Something's wrong with you!

The silver hairpin spear gleamed, and drops of blood from its tip fell to the ground, seemingly without any change.

To verify his guess, Bai Mo raised his hand, and his eyes flashed with silver light in an instant.

The spatial fluctuations arrived instantly, and the five Dust Wind Raccoons that hadn't yet escaped the perception range were directly controlled by an invisible force and flew up, instantly being brought to Bai Mo's front.

Holding a silver hairpin spear, Bai Mo, also suspended in mid-air, looked at the five Dust Wind Raccoons before him, their eyes filled with terror, yet unable to even tremble. In an instant, he transformed into an executioner, raising his silver spear and thrusting it forward, piercing the head of one of the Dust Wind Raccoons and ending its life.

Bai Mo sensed the changes in the Silver Hairpin Spear and the Dust Wind Badger, but it did not sense any changes in the dead Dust Wind Badger.

Only a single, shimmering, pale green spirit floated out.

However, he could clearly feel that most of the magical energy he had channeled into the Silver Hairpin Spear had vanished. This was equivalent to the consumption of almost half a mid-level spell. He then remembered that when the spear's power killed the giant palm-shaped raccoon demon, the Silver Hairpin Spear had also absorbed some of his spatial magical energy. At the time, he had assumed it was necessary for the burst of power and hadn't paid much attention.

It seems that this is not the case now.

It seems that demons killed directly by the silver hairpin spear will release their essence, and what he has to pay is most of the spatial magic energy of a mid-level magic.

What is the principle behind this?

Bai Mo didn't know the answer, nor did he need to know it now.

All he needed to know was that the demons he killed with his silver hairpin spear would lose their essence.

Like the wolf on the national highway in the short video, it doesn't need to know why the monkeys inside those moving metal objects throw it food, nor does it need to understand why different metal objects throw different kinds of food.

All the wolf needs to know is that as long as it does this, it will be full.

Bai Mo came to his senses and realized that the only drawback of the Silver Hairpin Spear's ability was that it consumed magical energy, and he currently had half of his spatial magical energy left.

Essence is very important, but losing demonic energy will not only result in the loss of essence, but also in the loss of one's life.

Looking at the remaining few Dust Wind Raccoons, Bai Mo shook his head regretfully and used his mind to control space to smash them on the ground.

Then it rode the wind track outwards.

The forest a hundred meters away had been reduced to a pile of rotten wood. A tall, bluish-white wind wall was blowing, filled with tiny fragments. Any demon that tried to escape the wind wall's coverage would be violently knocked away.

Four or five dust raccoons would band together to break through this tough and strong wind wall, and they did succeed.

But when they emerge battered and bruised, they will see an incredibly fast person approaching them, unleashing a devastating flood that leaves them no escape, further ravaging their already wounded bodies and ultimately ending their lives.

Some of the dust raccoons that rushed out fared no better. Though the flood didn't come, thunder struck and flames swept through, and they too could not escape their fate of death.

Using the Ice Vine once again to freeze the two wounded Dust Wind Raccoons into ice sculptures, Zhou Tianyuan clicked his tongue and sighed, "Bai Mo is getting more and more monstrous. Of these fifty-odd demons, not many escaped."
