"Boy, show you the power of the Red Shadow Staff!"

Lin Mo barely managed to avoid it sideways, but the Red Shadow Python suddenly turned into countless small snakes and entangled him again.

Lin Mo gritted his teeth, raised the skull bone ring in his hand, and hit the giant python with a blow.

Hearing only the tragic roar, countless small cracks appeared on the red shadow python's body, and then its body shook and turned into residual blood.

"Bastard, you hurt my magic weapon!" Lao Dao was furious.

Just when Lin Mo and Lao Dao were in the midst of a fierce battle, the tide of battle had a dramatic reversal.

The old Taoist said something in his mouth, and his hands were quickly sealed on his chest. Lin Mo only felt that the air around him instantly froze, and a powerful sense of oppression enveloped the entire desert.

"Oh no, something big is going to happen!"

Lin Mo was alarmed, but it was too late. I only heard the old Taoist laugh and slammed a button on his waist.

The desert ground rumbled and shook, and countless dark red figures emerged from the dunes. It's clearly an army of monsters summoned by the old way!

"Go ahead!" The old man shouted loudly.

The monsters were in a variety of forms, from wolf-like tigers, snake-like scorpions, and demonic apes with sharp claws and fangs. They roared and roared, quickly surrounding Lin Mo.

"Damn! Eat me with a sword!"

Lin Mo swung his bloody sword violently, slashing down several demonic beasts that rushed forward. But more monsters rushed up and soon surrounded Lin Mo, unable to move an inch.

"Hahahaha!" Lao Dao laughed wildly in mid-air, "Boy, admit it, you're not my opponent!"

Lin Mo's face turned pale, and he tried his best, but he could only barely resist the attack of these monsters. However, Lao Dao obviously had more of his subordinates lurking underground, which was ten times more than Lin Mo's.

With such a disparity in strength, Lin Mo is obviously at a disadvantage.

Lin Mo was besieged in the middle of the desert by Lao Dao's monster army, and fell into a tense confrontation with Lao Dao.

"Surrender, boy, I can spare your life!" Lao Dao said condescendingly in mid-air.

"! Lao Tzu would rather have jade shattered than give in!" Lin Mo let out a loud shout and swung his sword to slash at the monsters in all directions.

"Good! See how I torture you!" Lao Dao sneered, waved his hand and ordered several demon apes to throw sharp blades at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo dodged sideways, and at the same time jumped upwards violently, and sword qi erupted from the blood sword.

"Blood Shadow Sword!"

The sword qi formed a huge blood-colored sword shadow, slashing straight towards the old way. Lao Dao hurriedly put out a protective shield to block the blow, but his face became ugly.

"You've got two more moments, but you'll be timid soon!" Lao Dao said gloomily.

Before the words fell, he used a trick to bewitch the mind and tried to attack Lin Mo's spirit. Lin Mo hurriedly urged the True Qi of the Body Protector to barely resist this spiritual attack.

"Look at the move!"

Just when Lao Dao was engrossed, Lin Mo seized the opportunity and violently shot out a skull upward, and the skull opened its mouth and spewed out a black mist.

With a loud bang, the black fog collided with the protective shield of the old way, and both were severely damaged.

Lin Mo and Lao Dao took a few steps back at the same time, and the two fell into a brief draw.

"Boy, what are you from, with such magic weapons and martial arts?" Lao Dao stared at Lin Mo, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"Either you die or I die today, come on!" Lin Mo's eyes were red, and he clenched his blood sword and rushed forward.

Neither of them backed down at the moment, and the result of this life-and-death battle has not yet been decided, but the outcome is obviously in a thought.

......

Lin Mo was walking in a secluded valley, and suddenly a flower appeared in front of him, and the scenery of the valley disappeared, replaced by a quiet lake.

"What is this place?" Lin Mo looked around vigilantly, only to see that the surface of the lake was like a mirror, and the shadows of the trees were sparkling, and he couldn't see a single flaw.

At that moment, a gentle ripple spread across the surface of the water, and a vague shadow rose from the bottom of the water. Lin Mo squinted his eyes and looked carefully, it seemed to be the shadow of a fish, swimming leisurely towards the shore.

「

Little golden swordfish!"

Lin Mo slapped his palms, and a golden light shot out from his palm, turning into a small golden fish, shooting towards the shadow in the water.

Just listen to the pop, it seems that the goldfish has successfully hit the target, and there is a splash. Lin Mo was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when suddenly the shadow in the water appeared again, still swimming leisurely.

"What's going on?" Lin Mo was shocked. He sent a few more goldfish to attack, but the creatures in the water remained unharmed.

"Oh no, this seems to be an illusion!" Lin Mo's heart was full of alarm bells. He summoned his mind and slammed his palm into the water.

I heard a loud bang, and the whole lake cracked, and the lake dried up in an instant. Instead, there was a huge six-legged mirage beast that was staring at Lin Mo with blood-red eyes.

"I see, a quick illusion reaction, this is a mirage!" Lin Mo's eyes were cold, ready to go head-to-head with this powerful enemy!

After seeing through the mirage's illusion, Lin Mo decided to use his unique two-handed supernatural powers to fight the monster.

Seeing that the illusion was useless, the mirage roared angrily and spewed out two white smoke jets aimed at Lin Mo. Lin Mo jumped lightly, dodging the fatal blow.

Then I saw Lin Mo's hands stretched, and countless tiny wires shot out of the gaps in his bones, hitting the mirage beast directly. The mirage hurriedly rolled to dodge, but its feet were still strangled by wire.

"Want to escape? Suffer death!"

Lin Mo pulled his hands suddenly, and the wire tightened instantly, tearing off the mirage's feet. The mirage wailed and spewed out two more white mist.

"Useless!"

Lin Mo's palms were staggered, and the metal wires formed an iron wall, bouncing off all the white mist.

"I'm going to take your heart!"

Lin Mo let out a loud shout, and his hands shot out more wires, quickly entangled the mirage, firmly binding its beating heart.

"No, it can't be......" The mirage's eyes burst into horror as it struggled violently.

But soon, under the tightening of the wire, its heart was pulled out alive.

"Finally got you."

Lin Mo coldly put away his hands and greeted the afterglow, with a cold light in his eyes.

Lin Mo finally slashed the mirage, but it didn't seem to be over yet.

Lin Mo noticed that there was still a trace of treacherous aura wafting in the air, and he looked around vigilantly, but he couldn't see any clues.

"Does this mirage have an accomplice?" Lin Mohu was undecided.

At this moment, a vague shadow suddenly shot out from the depths of the woods, straight to Lin Mo's heart!

Lin Mo listened to the wind and discerned the shape, and rolled sideways suddenly, narrowly avoiding this fatal blow. The shadow passed by, hidden in the shadows of the trees.

"I see, Invisible Powers!" A cold light flashed in Lin Mo's eyes, and his left hand stretched out, shooting out a golden light from between his fingers.

Hearing the sound of "Zla", the golden light streaked through, and an object fell from the shadow of the tree. Lin Mo stepped forward and found that it was a mature gold-devouring insect with broken wings.

"Go, my little friend!" With a wave of Lin Mo's hands, dozens of gold-devouring insects flew out of his body.

These gold-eating insects quickly dispersed, and soon, Lin Mo heard a violent crash and scream from the depths of the woods.

Moments later, the gold-eaters returned, forming a circle in midair. At the center of the ring was a terrifying, charred corpse—the remains of an invisible mirage, apparently.

"Good! The credit is yours." Lin Mo smiled and gave a thumbs up to the gold devouring insects.

This time, the crisis was finally resolved.

After destroying the invisible mirage, Lin Mo noticed that his divine thoughts seemed to have been consumed in large quantities.

"What's going on?" Lin Mo was puzzled, "I obviously didn't use any big moves, why did the divine thoughts wear down so badly?"

Lin Mo carefully recalled the battle just now, and suddenly, he thought of something.

"Could it be...... Gold Eater?"

That's right, when using the Gold Devouring Worm to destroy the Invisible Mirage, Lin Mo felt that his divine thoughts were rapidly draining. But at that time he was concentrating on the enemy and did not care.

「

Could it be that the use of the Gold Devouring Worm really requires the consumption of so many divine thoughts?" Lin Mo was thoughtful.

He knew that the Gold Devouring Worm was an extremely powerful divine beast, but he didn't expect that their attack would require the support of a huge divine thought.

"I have to figure this out, lest I suddenly run out of thought at a critical moment."

Lin Mo decided to release a few more Gold Devouring Worms later, carefully observing their effects on his divine thoughts.

This battle gave him a deeper understanding of the power of the Gold Eater. Next, he needs to investigate the mysterious creature further.

Lin Mo sensed that when using the Gold Devouring Worm, his divine thoughts would be consumed greatly, but the specific consumption was difficult to grasp.

"I'll have to test it to determine the effect of the Gold Eater's attack on the Divine Mind." Lin Mo thought to himself.

He found an empty valley, gathered a certain amount of divine thoughts, and then released two mature gold-devouring insects.

I saw two gold-devouring insects circling and crashing rapidly in the valley, their powerful momentum made Lin Mo worry about whether they would hurt himself.

However, to Lin Mo's surprise, after the Gold Devouring Worm attacked for a period of time, he didn't even feel the obvious loss of divine thoughts.

"What's going on? Did I misjudge before?" Lin Mohu was undecided.

He let the Gold Devourer continue to attack, but the Divine Thoughts were consumed much faster than he expected.

"The power of the Gold Devouring Worm is really powerful, but why doesn't it consume as many divine thoughts as I thought?"

Lin Mo was deeply puzzled by this. It seems that the mystery of the gold eater needs to be further explored.

In order to find out the influence of the Gold Devouring Worm on the Divine Thoughts, Lin Mo released ten mature Gold Devouring Worms this time.

At first, Lin Mo didn't feel a significant loss of divine thoughts. However, over time, the increase in the number of gold-eating insects had a significant impact on the rate at which Divine Thoughts were consumed.

Lin Mo felt that the divine thoughts in his body were rapidly declining at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if there was a bottomless pit greedily sucking his divine thoughts.

"This consumption rate is terrifying!"

Lin Mo's face changed slightly. He hurriedly mobilized his forces to try to slow down the loss of divine thoughts.

However, the attack of the Gold Devouring Worm continued, they collided and collided with each other, and the energy released caused a huge impact on Lin Mo's divine thoughts.

Finally, when the Gold Devouring Worm attacked for a certain period of time, Lin Mo felt dizzy in his head and almost fell to the ground.

"I see...... The Gold Eater will indeed consume a lot of my Divine Thoughts."

Lin Mo's face was gloomy. This made him a little wary of the powerful power of the Gold Eater.

After this test of releasing the Gold Devouring Worms, Lin Mo had a clear understanding of the problem of divine thought consumption brought by them. He began to think seriously about how to deal with this tricky situation.

Lin Mo realized that the Gold Devouring Worm was undoubtedly a powerful secret weapon, and their unimaginable attack power was difficult for any enemy to resist. But be careful with how to use it, otherwise you may fall into a state of extreme weakness due to the attrition of malignant divine thoughts, and you will be taken advantage of by the enemy.

"I have to change my strategy and not rely on the Gold Eater too often." Lin Mo muttered, "Maybe I can study if there's a way to reduce their absorption of divine thoughts."

Lin Mo tried to use his telekinesis to control the gold devouring insects, hoping to slow down their devouring divine thoughts, but with little success. It seems that the gold eater's instinct to absorb divine thoughts is difficult to control.

"At critical moments, I can still unleash the Gold Eater Worm to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy." A cold light flashed in Lin Mo's eyes, "But before that, I must preserve my abundant divine thoughts to ensure that I can support the attack of the Gold Devouring Worm."

Lin Mo decided that he would be more cautious in using the Gold Devouring Worm in his daily cultivation, treating them as killer weapons. At the same time, it is also necessary to improve one's ability to accumulate and mobilize divine thoughts, so as to ensure that you can flexibly respond to various situations in battle.

This experience gave Lin Mo a better understanding of the power of the Gold Devouring Worms, and it also made him more cautious and meticulous in applying them. Next, he needs to further master how to use this powerful force.

Lin Mo sat under an old tree, closing his eyes and concentrating. He found that the gold-eating worm had just been released

After that, the consumption of the Divine Thoughts is not obvious, but as time goes by, the rate of consumption will become faster and faster until the Divine Thoughts are exhausted.

"This is undoubtedly caused by the instinctive absorption of divine thoughts by the gold devouring worm's body." Lin Mo pondered, "They are too powerful for my divine thoughts to support such a huge consumption."

Lin Mo realized that if he relied too much on the Gold Devouring Worm in battle, the result would most likely be a lose-lose situation. When one's mind is insufficient, one will fall into a state of extreme weakness and be injured by the enemy.

"Looks like I have to be cautious with the Gold Eaters, treating them as killers. It is only unleashed at the critical moment to deliver a swift and fierce blow to the enemy."

Lin Mo silently wrote down this lesson. The power of the Gold Eater is amazing, but it also requires careful consideration of the time it takes to use it. He also needed to enhance his ability to accumulate divine thoughts in his daily cultivation, and fully prepare for the release of the Gold Devouring Worm.

In view of the loss of divine thoughts, Lin Mo decided to leave here temporarily and find other places to cultivate.

Here, Lin Mogang experienced two battles, and although he was victorious, his own divine thoughts were also greatly damaged.

"I need to find a quiet place to slowly regain my strength." Lin Mo thought.

Lin Mo believed that as long as he meditated in a suitable environment for a period of time, coupled with the replenishment of pills, his divine thoughts could be slowly restored.

So Lin Mo chose a secluded cave and meditated there. He constantly monitored the flow of divine thoughts in his body, and once he felt a significant recovery, he would get up and practice to practice the use of divine thoughts.

In this small cave of seclusion, Lin Mo lived an extremely simple life.
