Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

"Scepter?"

"Blood Demon Vine?"

Hong Zhangtian frowned and said, "What are you talking about? I'm not quite sure."

"Oh?"

Lin Mo smirked coldly.

An ice-blue sword light swirled around, like a dragon from ancient myths, faintly emitting a clear ringing sound.

Suddenly.

The Xuanyuan Sword hovering in the sky turned into a ray of light, shooting towards Hong Zhangtian.

The sword was like a fine silk, arriving in an instant.

Hong Zhangtian's expression suddenly darkened, his entire True Yuan surged, and his hands formed seals, conjuring Dharma Seals in front of him, like golden walls, while the air around him rippled like waves.

A peak Emperor Extreme expert, demonstrating profound power.

"Break!"

Lin Mo uttered softly.

The Xuanyuan Sword seemed even more excited, its speed as fast as lightning, piercing through the golden walls as easily as a needle through tofu.

"How is it possible?"

Hong Zhangtian's face turned pale, his figure retreating hundreds of meters explosively.

But the Xuanyuan Sword was even faster, the golden barriers only slightly slowing it down, yet even so, it was a speed Hong Zhangtian could not evade.

"Heavenly Thunder Palm."

Hong Zhangtian's palms were covered with terrifying lightning, emanating a dazzling light. In an instant, the Xuanyuan Sword struck his body.

"Bang!"

A massive sound echoed through the entire path.

The expanding energy fluctuations sent waves rolling on the once calm sea, with columns of white water shooting up hundreds of meters high, creating a magnificent spectacle.

Some fish and sharks hunting were shattered into pieces by the intense energy fluctuation, and blotches of blood turned the azure water red.

Hong Zhangtian plummeted into the sea like a cannonball, utterly shocked at the opponent's strength, which was nearly Divine Force. Although he had caught the sword, the power transmitted through his arms caused a disturbance in his blood energy.

Lin Mo remained calm, proudly standing in the sky.

"Bang!"

A moment later, Hong Zhangtian shot out from the sea, immediately using True Yuan to evaporate the water off his body, white mist rising.

"Do you still want to fight?"

Lin Mo asked.

"A hero among the young, I concede," Hong Zhangtian gritted his teeth, bowing with a hand salute.

"Hand over the items, and I'll leave immediately." Lin Mo didn't want to waste time; though Hong Zhangtian was not his match, if desperate, he could still cause trouble, and the longer it dragged on, the greater the chance for other variables.

Hong Zhangtian hesitated for a moment before flying towards the small island.

Lin Mo followed, flying up as well.

"Our Hongmen indeed holds a scepter, but as for the Blood Demon Vine you mentioned, I don't know what that is," Hong Zhangtian said.

Lin Mo flipped his hand, and immediately, two pieces of blood-red glowing soft armor appeared in his palm, "It's this thing."

"You mean the Energy Tree?" Hong Zhangtian's eyes widened.

"You're both a Magic User and a Martial Artist, so you naturally know what this item is used for." Lin Mo spoke.

Seeing Hong Zhangtian forming hand seals earlier, Lin Mo guessed he was capable of Dual Cultivation of Martial Arts and Magic, otherwise, he couldn't make some Magic Artifacts. "Fine, I'll give you everything." Hong Zhangtian gritted his teeth, feeling heartbroken, but he knew if he didn't hand over the items, Lin Mo would really start a massacre. The world's rule is simple—survival of the fittest.

Salaman Island, United States, 4 PM local time, the setting sun covered the sea, golden scales rolling.

"Mr. Lin, here's the scepter you wanted." Hong Zhangtian handed over a dark black scepter to Lin Mo, a trace of helplessness in his eyes.

As Lin Mo took the dark scepter, he felt a cool sensation in his hand, one that seemed not just to touch the skin, but a coldness that penetrated the soul.

"Same feeling, it must be it." Lin Mo grinned.

The scepter was about half a foot long, made of some unknown black metal, its entire body pitch black with a faint sheen, and the feeling it imparted was the same as that of the Bloodstained Bible and related objects.

Engraved on the scepter were ancient runes, wrapped around by a lifelike black serpent, its body also inscribed with ancient inscriptions. Particularly, the eyes of the serpent were set with red gemstones, shining with a blood-red, bloodthirsty glow, and on each side were open bat wings, giving an eerie impression.

"The six keys are finally in hand; the next step is to figure out how to open the ancient ruins." Lin Mo thought with delight.

"And the Blood Demon Vine?"

Lin Mo flipped his hand, storing the scepter back into his Space Ring, and asked.

Hong Zhangtian was so angry he could spit blood; he was, after all, the Sect Leader of Hongmen and a peak Emperor Realm expert, yet he was now being robbed by a young man.

"That vine has always grown on the island, I don't know its name either, but its vines and fruits can be used to craft Magic Artifacts, enhancing my disciples' strength," Hong Zhangtian said, walking towards the island's center. Lin Mo nodded inwardly, thinking perhaps the likes of Hong Yi, Hong Duo, and Hong Lei could quickly reach Emperor Realm due to the effects of the Blood Demon Fruit, but relying on external items for strength is ultimately a side path, which caused individuals like Hong Lei and Hong Yi, although Emperor Realm experts, to still be far less powerful than

Liu Sheng Zongzhai.

But even so, having a few Emperor Realm members in a faction was enough to establish Hongmen's footing internationally, becoming a global powerhouse.

Lin Mo secretly connected his Divine Thought with the Xuanyuan Sword, ensuring Hong Zhangtian couldn't make any deceitful moves. If Hong Zhangtian tried anything, Lin Mo would unleash his most powerful strike to eliminate him instantly.

"Mr. Lin, ahead lies the Blood Demon Vine."

Hong Zhangtian halted his steps.

Ahead was a place shrouded in white fog, making it impossible to see inside.

Though the small island had been developed by Hongmen, many areas were still like a rainforest, with numerous trees and plants, dense with wild growth.

"However, Mr. Lin, this fog is quite peculiar. It's challenging to enter; I can only go in during a specific time each summer when the fog weakens." Hong Zhangtian suddenly said.

After speaking, he gave Lin Mo a peculiar look.

His words were clear: the white fog was unusual, and taking the Blood Demon Vine depended on Lin Mo's capability.

In fact, Hong Zhangtian could've hidden this from Lin Mo, but given Lin Mo's strength, even if he couldn't enter, he could still retreat safely. He feared Lin Mo would encounter danger and retaliate after coming out, so he simply told him.
