In Mount Luofu, demonic beasts ran wild in the mountains and forests.

Within a small valley, a huge rock blocked a cave. There had not been a single rustle of movement in the cave for three to four days, but on the fifth day, continuous whistles came from within the cave mixed with the roars of a Celestial Devil. It seemed that this cave that was blocked by rocks was the entrance to hell, and an unparalleled Celestial Devil would soon burst out from within. 

Day six and day seven went by.

Seven days had passed. Finally, on the seventh day, the rocks that blocked the entrance to the cave erupted and a figure came flying out before landing on the ground hard with his face in the dirt.

“F*ck! Pooh!” As Ji Mo struggled to get up from the ground, he spat out the dirt in his mouth. “Damn it, I overshot with that power…”

In just seven days, Ji Mo was reincarnated again. With the help from the power of the demon cores he accumulated and the golden lotus root, he successfully broke through the seventh-tier tempered body. As a result, the Celestial Devil Power grew even more powerful, and beneath his flesh, it practically materialized. The moment the Celestial Devil Power was activated, strange sigils were formed on the surface of Ji Mo’s skin. These sigils belonged to the runes of the Celestial Devil and they contained the truth of hell.

If Ji Mo combined it with the advanced martial arts skill, the Essence-Unifying Slab Splitter, he absolutely would have no problem exerting a force of more than 2,000 kilograms in a single breath. This power he possessed was much stronger than Nan Hao when he had been on the eight-tier. It was on a whole different level. 

A ninth-tier tempered body cultivator would probably not be a match for Ji Mo now, but he was still slightly less powerful than a Qi Plundering Boundary master. After all, Qi Plundering Boundary cultivators were true cultivators whereby True Qi had formed in their bodies and they could perform divine power. Even if Ji Mo had tremendous strength, it would not matter.

Of course, with his current abilities, he would not have trouble escaping from a Qi Plundering Boundary master. 

In the quiet forest, a stunning tiger came out of a bush. The tiger was as huge as an elephant, its limbs thick with power as it moved very swiftly. However, this gorgeous tiger was covered in bloodstains, and it seemed terrified. It frequently turned back to steal glances before running off again.

“Goshawk Strike!”

All of a sudden, a shout came from within the forest. On top of a giant tree, a shadow bolted downwards with arms wide open like a hunting goshawk. Ji Mo contracted his fingers like a goshawk’s claw and aimed for the head of the gorgeous tiger.

Pfft!

Blood spattered and Ji Mo sliced the tiger’s head off cleanly. Its huge body continued to lumber forward until it lay dead with a thud on the ground, motionless. 

Then, Ji Mo walked up and stepped on the corpse of the tiger with a leg. Then he sliced the tiger’s belly open with his blade-like palm and pulled out a pellet of black demonic core. The position of the demonic cores was particularly dependent on the species of the demonic beast. 

Ji Mo had obtained this information from the ancient books, hence it was not difficult for him to retrieve the demonic cores.

“Number fifty.” Ji Mo smirked and swallowed the demonic core immediately. With the Celestial Devil Power refining the spiritual energy located in the demonic core, swallowing the demonic cores was like eating candy. If anyone else saw this, they would have a shock of their lives.

After that, Ji Mo pulled out the most precious thing from the tiger’s corpse and threw it into his waist pocket as proof of how many demonic beasts he had hunted. When the Hunting Competition was over, Tianyuan Academy would evaluate the numbers of demonic beasts that one had hunted based on these items, and the participants would be ranked accordingly.

“Okay, next station!” Ji Mo strode to leave.

At that moment, a sword flash flew through the pitch-black night sky. Ji Mo turned to look and saw a girl in red within the flash. She was stepping on the Flaming Sword light as she fell from the sky. The girl in red was none other than Huo Lin’er.

However, Huo Lin’er was pale and she had a slight grimace on her face. There were even faint bloodstains on the corner of her red lips. She fell mid-air while shifting the Flaming Sword light, and when she saw Ji Mo, her entire body fell uncontrollably, crashing onto him.

Her soft, fragrant body fell into his arms, and Ji Mo hugged her subconsciously. Huo Lin’er squashed him on the ground. When she fell, coincidentally, her buttocks landed on Ji Mo first. Her entire buttocks sat on his face while her upper body was sprawled across his lower body. The situation was simply…terribly awkward.

“Senior Sister Huo Lin’er, this…” Ji Mo was lying on the ground. He was strong, and although he was squashed by Huo Lin’er who just fell from the sky, he was not injured.

Nevertheless, he was very curious about why she would suddenly appear and fall from the sky.

“Take your hand away!” She glared at Ji Mo angrily with a faint blood smear at the corner of her mouth.

“You get up first,” Ji Mo pleaded.

Only then did Huo Lin’er realize how embarrassing the situation was. Immediately, a red blush spread across her face as she rolled over from Ji Mo’s body, then sat on the ground, panting while wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth.

“Oh…Senior Sister Huo Lin’er, what’re you doing here?” Ji Mo stared at her with a surprised expression on his face. He had never seen her this injured before.

“Don’t ask me. I blame the b*tch. I didn’t expect her to ambush me,” Huo Lin’er said resentfully. Her tiny mouth pouted, which made her very cute and seem slightly playful, but he could still see the loathing deep in her eyes.

“Who? Was it Lu Susu?” Ji Mo asked.

“Who else can it be besides her?! The reason why Lu Susu came back to Tianyuan Academy this time was to target me. She even invited me to duel outside Mount Luofu during the academy’s Hunting Competition. Unfortunately, I fell into her trap and the b*tch’s ambush succeeded. My entire cultivation base is sealed off, and now the True Qi in my body is slowly freezing. I can’t even control my sword now.” Huo Lin’er gritted her teeth and he could sense her deep hatred of Lu Susu.

“Lu Susu wants to kill you?” Ji Mo was shocked.

Although he knew that Huo Lin’er and Lu Susu bore a grudge against each other, he never thought that their resentment would be so intense that it would make them want to kill each other. Therefore, he was afraid it could not be as simple as a love rivalry.

“Hmph, if I didn’t escape quickly enough and hid in Mount Luofu, I’m afraid that I’ll die by her sword.” Huo Lin’er’s tiny face was grave and full of seriousness while a tinge fear could be seen in her expression.

Ji Mo coughed and looked at Huo Lin’er. “Senior Sister, can you tell me what kind of grudge do you and Lu Susu have? Why does she want to kill you?”

“Can I say it’s because I’m prettier than her?” Huo Lin’er rubbed her chest and frowned slightly.

“Wouldn’t all the women in the world have to come and kill you then?” Ji Mo joked.

“Sweet talker!” Huo Lin’er rolled her eyes at Ji Mo. Then, with a faint dash of resentment in her beautiful eyes, she admitted, “Actually…it was because of a man.”

“Did you steal her man?” Ji Mo wondered.

“No.”

“Did she steal your man then?” Ji Mo continued asking.

“No.”

“Then, what the hell are you all fighting for?”
