They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent chapter 40

Lin Mo held his forehead; Qu Ruyan not only dismantled the opponent’s stage but didn’t spare their own either!

The middle-aged man by Wang Sandun’s side and the elder by Chen Huai’s side exchanged glances.

“For just a Qi Foundation stage junior, it’s rather overestimating him for the two of us to make a move together,” said the elder.

“Hmm, the junior does speak arrogantly. Let me be the one to teach him a lesson,” the middle-aged man glared fiercely at Lin Mo, his face full of disdain.

“I know you can break through to Jindan at any moment, but you don’t have that chance now!”

“If you had broken through to Jindan, you might have been able to exchange a few moves with me, but as for you now…”

Lin Mo, growing impatient, interrupted, “Listening to you beat around the bush, why don’t we wait until I break through to Jindan before we fight?”

The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow: “Do you take me for a fool?”

Lin Mo replied coldly: “Then spare me the nonsense.”

To break through to the Golden Core stage, he still had to return to his sect for seclusion.

This leap in major realms was not like the minor ones; regret value spent could not immediately result in advancement.

He roughly estimated that breaking through to the Golden Core stage would take at least a few days, or perhaps even longer.

If possible, he would have liked to break through on the spot!

“Courting death!” The middle-aged man decided to teach Lin Mo a lesson first.

With a shift in expression, he unhesitatingly pressed his Golden Core stage aura towards Lin Mo.

The anticipated image of Lin Mo in agony did not appear.

The atmosphere turned **awkward**.

The middle-aged man couldn’t help but utter a ‘huh’.

He was puzzled, how a Foundation Building cultivator could remain unaffected under his pressure, as if nothing was amiss.

It made him look rather foolish, at least some reaction would have been nice!

“Kid, you do have quite a few treasures on you!” the middle-aged man concluded.

Otherwise, he could think of no other reason.

Behind him, apart from Qu Ruyan, the other junior sisters were also very perplexed.

The moment the middle-aged man finished speaking, they all felt the terrifying pressure from the Golden Core stage.

It was even more intense than the Golden Core cultivator they faced at the Jiangyue Pavilion.

Just as they were about to take medicinal pills to resist the pressure, Lin Mo shifted his stance, stepping in front of them, and the terrifying pressure dissipated.

“Could it be, senior brother really has some treasure?” Xia He said.

“It’s indeed very likely,” Xie Zhian nodded.

“Ah, why do I feel like senior brother used his own aura to protect us?” Qu Ruyan blinked, seeing more due to her racial traits.

She could clearly sense the invisible aura around Lin Mo.

Compared to the middle-aged man opposite, it was not just a little stronger.

In addition, she also clearly perceived that although Lin Mo’s true qi was not as abundant as the middle-aged man’s, it was purer.

This was also why she had such faith in Lin Mo.

“I do have a treasure!” Lin Mo took out the Liuli Sword from his storage ring.

‘Little thing, this is your first time cutting someone, don’t disappoint me.’

The spirit of the Liuli Sword said: “Xiao Li has killed Transcendence stage cultivators before, a mere Golden Core stage is as simple as chopping vegetables!”

A duel between Transcendence stage cultivators would surely require weapons of the Immortal Treasure or Divine Weapon level.

This glass sword is merely a low-grade magical treasure. In such a level of combat, wouldn’t its slender frame shatter upon a single touch?

Lin Mo regarded the glass sword’s boasts as bluster and couldn’t be bothered to expose it.

However, the three Golden Core cultivators opposite him, upon seeing the glass sword in Lin Mo’s hand, their eyes gleamed with golden light.

This was a magical treasure-grade sword, with a market price starting at no less than ten million spirit stones.

The weapons they carried were mostly superior mortal treasures or at the level of spiritual treasures.

Even the Eyebrow Poison Elder, who was closest to the Nascent Soul stage, his weapon was merely a mid-grade spiritual treasure.

“A magical treasure-grade sword for a sidearm, kid, you’re quite wealthy!” The middle-aged man’s face showed greed.

“Want it?” Lin Mo sneered: “If you have the guts, try and snatch it!”

The middle-aged man no longer intended to play along with Lin Mo.

There were two other Golden Core cultivators here; the sword surely wasn’t his alone.

Once they sold the sword and divided the spirit stones, he could pocket several million himself.

With that thought, he grew somewhat impatient.

He pushed out a palm, and the surging spiritual energy nearly solidified, forming a wave several meters in size, flying towards Lin Mo.

“You brat, don’t you know how to hold back?” The Eyebrow Poison Elder raised an eyebrow; he still wanted to capture Lin Mo and make him his plaything.

“Only fifty percent strength. He has a magical treasure-grade sword in hand, at most he’ll suffer some internal injuries, it won’t affect your performance,” the middle-aged man said unhurriedly.

He was still extremely respectful in his tone towards the Eyebrow Poison Elder.

Although his cultivation was only a minor realm higher, after all, the elder had one foot in the Nascent Soul stage and had even slain Nascent Soul cultivators.

If he upset the elder, he might have to suffer as well.

Lin Mo didn’t waste words, gripping the glass sword, he slashed out.

The palm, condensed from true qi, instantly turned to nothing.

“How is this possible…” The middle-aged man’s eyes were full of disbelief.

It should be inconceivable to everyone present.

The other two Golden Core cultivators could sense clearly, although the middle-aged man claimed he used only fifty percent strength, he was, after all, in the mid-stage of Golden Core.

How could a Foundation Building cultivator block such a palm so easily?

Could it be that this magical treasure-grade sword was so powerful?

Xia He, Xie Zhiqi, and Xie Zhian, the three junior sisters, were all staring agape.

But it was Qu Ruyan who excitedly said: “Senior brother is awesome, quickly teach him a harsh lesson!”

Wang Sandun and Chen Huai also thought it was the power of the glass sword.

They began to calculate how to seize the glass sword once the battle ended.

If it were given to them, at least they would have a small measure of self-protection in front of Golden Core cultivators.

Lin Mo is not one to feign strength indefinitely, seizing the moment while the middle-aged man is caught off guard.

He unleashed his own mid-grade Xuan-level technique, ‘Three Thousand Sword Art’.

He had cultivated this technique to the eighth level, just two levels shy of perfection.

Most Golden Core cultivators generally have a Xuan-level technique at the fourth or fifth level.

And the palm strike from the middle-aged man just now was also of a mid-grade Xuan-level, which he had just managed to cultivate to the fifth level.

With a constitution that naturally understands the sword, he has a unique comprehension of sword-related techniques.

Moreover, Lin Mo, with his sword spirit root and wielding a treasure-quality glaze sword, executed the ‘Three Thousand Sword Art’ with the momentum of a lower-level technique.

From noble mtl dot nete

Countless sword energies shot towards the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man felt each sword energy was incredibly fierce. Caught by surprise, he had no choice but to summon his entire true qi to protect himself.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!” Countless sword energies, with the force of destroying the dry and rotten, shattered the middle-aged man’s barrier defense and struck his body directly.

A miserable scream was heard, and the middle-aged man lay motionless on the ground.

Silence, a deathly stillness.

The eyes of those present, filled with shock, couldn’t help but linger on Lin Mo.

A mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, defeated just like that?

And by a young man in the Foundation Building stage…

Several junior sisters couldn’t help but think simultaneously, ‘Is our senior brother really that powerful?’

In the midst of everyone’s shock.

More terrifying sword energies fell upon the spot where the middle-aged man had already fallen and could not get up.

Lin Mo is the cautious type, not stopping until he was certain the middle-aged man was dead beyond doubt, his body full of sword holes.

Lin Mo, facing the aftermath of his actions, showed no change in expression, his voice like a soul-reaping judge, cold and devoid of any emotion.

“It’s your turn now!”
