"Martial... Martial Saint?" Uncle Wang's heart was filled with shock. The only explanation for defeating Lucas with such ease was that Lin Mo had to be a Martial Saint-level master!
Lucas struggled for a long time, clutching his chest and retreating repeatedly, his expression horrified, "Who... Who exactly are you?"
"You're not qualified to know," Lin Mo replied coldly, a chilling gleam in his eyes. "Tell me, where did you get the power in your body, or I will kill you!"
"Don't... don't kill me. I'll tell you," Lucas said, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Lin Mo.
Chen Li, Huang Ling, and others were completely stunned.
Was Lin Mo that powerful?
After hearing Lucas's words, Lin Mo had not guessed wrong. Lucas was neither a Superpower User nor a Martial Arts Master. He could exert strength beyond an ordinary person because he had obtained a Star Meteorite. Every time he was near the Star Meteorite, he felt that his body could absorb some special energy, but not too much because his body couldn't withstand it.
This energy could only stay in his body for a day before completely disappearing. It was because of this accidental treasure that he had gained great fame in the underground fighting rings of the "Willi" city.
Later, Lucas brought the Star Meteorite to Dan Sen's base. Seeing Lin Mo's strength, Dan Sen's subordinates were so frightened that they dared not say a word.
"My lord, this is the meteorite," Lucas said respectfully, standing aside, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
Lin Mo glanced at the Star Meteorite, which was about the size of a bucket.
Then, Lin Mo turned and looked at Uncle Wang, pulling out two Elixirs and said indifferently, "These are for you. After you eat them, your bones will heal automatically, and your strength will slightly increase."
Immediately, Lin Mo walked directly to the Star Meteorite and indeed sensed a strong energy emanating from it, an energy that ordinary people could not control and should not absorb too much into their bodies.
Lin Mo slapped the meteorite, and its shell peeled off layer by layer, revealing its true contents.
Inside, there were two stones about the size of a loaf of bread, one purple and one blue, emitting a faint halo.
Lucas, who was standing next to him, gaped in amazement.
He had had the meteorite for a year and had tried countless methods to break it open to see what treasure was inside. Initially, no matter if he used fire, iron, or steel drills, he couldn't break the meteorite's shell.
But now, Lin Mo had easily shattered the meteorite's shell with a slap.
If Lin Mo had punched him with all his strength just now, Lucas probably would have exploded, a thought that made him pale with fright.
"Purple and Blue Dual Stones?" Lin Mo's face showed a trace of surprise.
These were rare materials for refining Spiritual Artifacts and Holy Artifacts, hard to find on Earth but possible from outer space debris.
"A waste of heaven's gifts," Lin Mo muttered coldly.
The Purple and Blue Dual Stones inherently contained powerful spiritual power. Lucas had absorbed their energy for underground boxing without knowing how to cultivate it, which was indeed a waste of heaven's gifts.
Lin Mo waved his hand, and the two Stones vanished as if by magic, then he strode away from Dan Sen's base.
Lucas stood by, watching Lin Mo leave as if he were watching a divine being.
Back at Huang Haoxuan's Gold Mining Factory base, Huang Haoxuan, Uncle Wang, Chen Li, and Huang Ling all stood outside respectfully.
They had just known that Lin Mo was formidable, but after Uncle Wang's explanation, they realized that Lin Mo was a Martial Saint!
A Martial Saint-level expert who could practically fly through the skies and escape through the earth!
Even capable of sweeping through a large city, far more powerful than their families, the Huang Family and the Chen Family.
"Mr. Lin," Uncle Wang bowed deeply, addressing Lin Mo with utmost respect.
Other people also hurriedly paid their respects, and although Chen Li had always been dissatisfied with Lin Mo, his face was filled with shock upon learning that Lin Mo was a Martial Saint.
Lin Mo nodded slightly and then said, "I suppose we are fated to meet, so I will bestow these elixirs upon you."
As he spoke, Lin Mo took out several elixirs he had crafted himself and looked at Uncle Wang, saying, "Take three pills, and you will be able to break through to High-level Martial Venerate within three days."
"What?"
Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, Uncle Wang was visibly overwhelmed with excitement, and he immediately knelt down, bowing deeply as he exclaimed, "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Lin!"
He had practiced martial arts all his life, and now in his forties or fifties, he was still only an Intermediate Martial Venerate.
But now, he had never imagined that the elixirs bestowed by Lin Mo could let him break through to High-level Martial Venerate within three days!
This was truly the dream of his lifetime!
The crowd's regard for Lin Mo grew even more respectful.
Then Huang Ling volunteered to drive, taking Lin Mo away from the gold prospecting site in an off-road jeep.
Planning to cross the border via the grassland highway and head to a Russian airport, Huang Ling did not dare to speak casually with Lin Mo knowing he was a Martial Saint-level expert. The two of them traveled in silence.
Lin Mo was resting with his eyes closed. He now possessed the Xuanyuan Sword, and the Purple Blue Stone was very suitable for refining a Flying Sword. Upon returning, it would be good to craft one for Yingzi.
In doing so, Yingzi's strength would be enhanced, which would be advantageous for protecting Xia Mengdie.
Just as he was thinking, the car suddenly came to a stop.
"What's happened?" Lin Mo opened his eyes and asked indifferently.
Huang Ling's eyes narrowed slightly as she said gravely, "Mr. Lin, you should see for yourself..."
Lin Mo casually glanced around and saw a crowd of Huaxia people and others from various countries gathered together, blocking the road, not daring to proceed.
"Mr. Lin, I guess there might be another war up ahead. This is the border of New Russia; warlords often launch small-scale battles here. I've encountered a few such incidents in just two days since I arrived. Huaxia is much better."
"We can either take a detour, but it's too far, at least a day and a night's drive, or we can wait here until they retreat."
After pondering for a moment, Huang Ling spoke.
Lin Mo shook his head and said indifferently, "No need to worry so much, just drive forward."
"Drive straight through? Those people are ruthless warlords," Huang Ling exclaimed, her eyes wide, but seeing Lin Mo's unflustered expression, a newfound determination filled her, and she whispered, "Alright then, I'll listen to Mr. Lin."
With that, Huang Ling continued driving forward, and the vehicles and people in the pickups nearby saw them moving on.
A Huaxia businessman yelled, "Hey, girl, there's a battle up ahead. Don't go there."
"Yes, those are ruthless warlords; they won't care about our lives."
"Just follow me," Lin Mo looked at those people and simply stated.
People glanced at each other. They had already waited a day, and the armies on both sides hadn't retreated. Plus, it was sweltering here, and everyone was growing impatient. Seeing Lin Mo's vehicle pressing forward, someone suggested, "Why don't we follow them and see if the warlords shoot at them?"
The rest, after a moment of thought, nodded.
Ahead, two armies had set up their positions, each holding one side, with about two thousand men in a standoff.
