"Brother Lin Tanyu, among the three of us, you are the strongest. As for the ability to hide and escape, I'm on par with you," the Golden Rat looked at Lin Mo, showing a rare serious demeanor. "If I die, help me take these treasures back home, to bring some joy to those lads, so they know their Star Lord is not just a coward who only knows how to run."
With that, the Golden Rat took out several Space Rings, each containing treasures he had collected over many years, meant as gifts for the cultivators of his planet.
Meng Yu, eyes red, cursed, "Golden Rat, if you want these treasures back, take them yourself! Who's willing to help you take those things back to your broken planet?" "Hehe, Brother Meng Yu... Little Zi is already out of danger and waiting for you to reunite and take you back to her homeland. I promised Little Zi to ensure you reach her side safely," the Golden Rat chuckled, handing the Space Rings to Lin Mo. "Brother Lin Tanyu, I ask this of you."
Lin Mo's eyes too were red. The usual fearful coward seemed to have vanished.
"Brother Meng Yu is right; it's best if you take these things back yourself. Only if you personally deliver them will the cultivators on your planet be happy. Aren't you afraid that without your protection your planet will be coveted by others?" Lin Mo said seriously. In his heart, Lin Mo felt something move him; whether on the Star Domain Battlefield or the Asura Battlefield, living each day amidst treachery, especially after being betrayed by Luo Yingning, he dared not trust anyone, even teammates from the Star Sky Alliance.
Kill and seize the treasures!
All for personal desires and interests!
If one doesn't look out for oneself, heaven and earth will destroy them. But must one always live solely for oneself?
On Earth, there were often news stories of husbands shielding their wives and children with their bodies from collapsing beams; or mothers using their frail bodies to protect their infants.
Amidst the battlefield, beyond selfishness and survival, exists another kind of bond—a commitment to friends and brothers, battling to defend one's faith and belief.
The Golden Rat's eyes were also red, "Why? Don't want to help? Are we not brothers? Are we not friends?"
"We are brothers, we are friends, and we won't let you die here." Meng Yu smiled as well.
"We are brothers; we cannot let you die." Lin Mo agreed.
The Golden Rat's eyes reddened as he clenched his teeth, "Alright, I, the Golden Rat, infamous for cowardice, have faced countless crises. This time, I'll risk my life to get out of here."
The Wing Clan Demon narrowed its eyes, looking at the returning Golden Rat, sneering, "Truly loyal, yet another seeking death?" The other Demon Clan Generals and Barbarian Realm Generals encircled the three, eyes filled with mockery. As long as they kept watch on each other, they were not afraid of Lin Mo's assassinations, and as for Meng Yu and the Golden Rat, their strength was not given much regard.
"Brother Lin Tanyu, the Golden Rat and I will fight them! If we kill one, it's not a loss; killing more is a gain." Meng Yu held his Giant Blade, roaring.
"Yes, let's fight them." The Golden Rat's blood boiled.
Lin Mo glanced at Meng Yu and the Golden Rat, seeing in them a battlefield bond and belief, "Don't worry, they absolutely cannot keep us here."
"Blood Demon Vine!" Instantly, dark red armor on Lin Mo's body extended into dark red vines, growing wildly, spreading and twisting; in mere moments, it covered an area a thousand miles around. Each vine's diameter quickly exceeded a hundred meters.
Watching the madly spreading Blood Demon Vine, everyone was stunned.
In an instant, including the Golden Rat, Meng Yu, the Wing Clan Barbarian Realm Generals, and other Demon Clan Generals were all shrouded in this massive vine forest.
"Brother Meng Yu, Rat, use this chance to escape. I'll hold them back!" Lin Mo secretly sent a message to the two.
Meng Yu and the Golden Rat were also stunned, not expecting Lin Mo to have such a peculiar treasure, a living plant-based treasure, which was his armor. The huge and robust vines coiled into a mass in the air, shrouding an area of a thousand miles; from a distance, it looked like a fiery red forest suspended in the heavens, with countless vines writhing madly, attacking the wrapped-around Barbarian Realm Generals and Demon Clan Generals.
"Cut down these vines, don't let those three escape." The Wing Clan Barbarian sent a message, then punched at the two wildly writhing vines pursuing them. Blood Demon Vine, comparable to high-level World Level magical treasures, possessed strong healing abilities, yet was resource-intensive to nurture. Though it could heal and regenerate, it also depleted its foundation. Even if it meant losing the Blood Demon Vine, Lin Mo was determined to get Meng Yu and the Golden Rat to safety.
The raging Fist Power with hurricane-like destructive capacity shattered the two hundred-meter-thick vines into smithereens.
Countless vine fragments floated in mid-air, and the severed vine ends began frantically wriggling, sprouting new vines.
"Damn, it still heals?" The Wing Clan Barbarian cursed aloud.
The other Barbarian Realm Generals and Demon Clan Generals also faced Blood Demon Vine attacks. To them, these Blood Demon Vines posed no real threat but effectively hindered their mobility.
Meng Yu and the Golden Rat, seeing this, did not hesitate further, flying towards the edge of the dark red forest formed by the Blood Demon Vine.
Passion and struggle could not close the power gap between enemy and ally; if against overwhelming odds, death was assured.
These Barbarian Realm Generals and Demon Clan Generals were annoyed by the Blood Demon Vine, struggling even to pursue both men.
Lin Mo also took the chance to fly out of the Blood Demon Vine.
Beneath the vast expanse of sky, the three narrowly escaped peril.
Lin Mo glanced at the Blood Demon Vine forest below, feeling a pang of sorrow, "Blood Demon Vine, you've done well."
Within the Blood Demon Vine, powerful energy fluctuations erupted, and with each burst, several Blood Demon Vine tendrils were shattered, quickly healing and sprouting new vines to block the Barbarian Realm Generals and Demon Clan Generals.
Boom! Boom!
Just when the three thought they had escaped pursuit, suddenly both the Golden Rat and Meng Yu were sent flying through the air, their armor exploding into countless fragments scattered in the sky.
Lin Mo's eyes widened in shock.
He hadn't seen anyone make a move, nor sensed any presence. "Kid, you are also an Asura Body, but unfortunately just a First Transition Asura. To me, you're still very weak." At this moment, a chilling voice drifted behind Lin Mo, making his hair stand on end.
