The Seventh Base

Capítulo 1183: Chapter 229: Battle with Rodrigo

The storm suddenly erupted, and the killing intent pervaded.

An invisible energy storm continuously spread, followed by domain power.

The elder of the Mystic God Temple stared at Rodrigo’s father and others, and Vera also stood by for backup.

She was incredibly shocked to learn that Xu Mo intended to battle Rodrigo, considering Rodrigo’s ranking, third on the Mystic God Ranking, his combat power was much stronger than hers.

Xu Mo recently sparred with her in combat, demonstrating strong combat power, but can he really face Rodrigo?

As Rodrigo thought, even knowing that the Abyss incident was his doing, what could they do? His family power was there, who dared to touch him?

Even if Vera was the daughter of the Republic Leader of the O’Brian Republic, she could not act recklessly.

If the Mystic God Temple were to intervene forcefully, then the experts of the Rodrigo family would surely also take action. Although the Rodrigo family could not possibly contend with the Mystic God Temple, if things escalated, no one would look good. The Mystic God Temple targeting its own cultivators without evidence, moreover dispatching top figures to deal with the Rodrigo family, would cause significant disruption.

Thus, Xu Mo requested her help, to stand by for support, along with the Mystic God Temple.

In such a case, the Rodrigo family’s people would not dare to act rashly.

As for Rodrigo himself, Xu Mo decided to handle it personally.

Fighting the strong while being the weaker, removing armor, fighting to the death, this was truly heroic.

Under such circumstances, how could Vera O’Brien still doubt Xu Mo?

Not to mention Vera O’Brien, even those Skywalkers from the Capital Star Mystic God Temple who came along, at this moment, they all believed Xu Mo.

It seemed that Rodrigo indeed killed Wu Lai and Asaka and secretly assassinated him, which provoked Xu Mo to such an extent.

But how could Xu Mo possibly defeat Rodrigo? Without the Mystic God Temple’s help, Rodrigo might kill Xu Mo.

Vera was indeed worried, her gaze reflected concern as she watched Xu Mo’s departing figure.

“Fall back.” At this moment, the elder of the Mystic God Temple spoke, his gaze directed at the Rodrigo family’s people opposite, they too were retreating.

“In that case, let the battle speak.” Rodrigo’s father spoke coldly.

He was very confident in Rodrigo’s abilities, he investigated Xu Mo, a genius, with strong combat power.

However, there was still a gap between him and Rodrigo.

If Rodrigo could not win this battle, then it would only mean he misjudged, blindly attacking without recognizing the opponent.

Vera and Zero also retreated, although worried, they still withdrew, leaving the aerial battlefield open.

For a moment, only Xu Mo and Rodrigo remained in the aerial battlefield.

At this moment, it seemed as if an energy storm arose around them, with both staring at each other, eyes filled with the same murderous intent.

“Xu Mo, how dare you?” Rodrigo’s voice was filled with killing intent.

Xu Mo, how dare he do this?

If he dares, then die!

“Boom…”

Horrifying domain spread, covering the vast space, with the domain power enveloping the sky above the Rodrigo family.

Rodrigo, peak Skywalker, third on the Mystic God Ranking.

His mastered abilities: shockwaves, Destructive Shattering Power.

Wave after wave of terrifying shockwaves roared ferociously, like towering tidal waves, accompanied by a violent sound, rushing towards Xu Mo’s body.

At the same time, hidden within was a powerful destruction force capable of shattering a person’s body.

Rodrigo extended his arm, spreading his palm, instantly gathering energy light, turning into a destructive big spear held in his hand, with wisps of destruction light falling down, surrounding his body.

At this moment, Rodrigo entered a full state, murderous intent filled the sky, his might unstoppable.

People in the surrounding area, even those Skywalkers from the Mystic God Temple at a distance and those below, could sense the ferocity emanating from Rodrigo at this moment.

Xu Mo naturally could feel the strength of this domain.

Rodrigo, as the third-ranked on the Mystic God Ranking, his strength was undeniable.

However, today was the moment to test the results of three years of cultivation.

“Kill!”

With a cold voice ringing out, Rodrigo charged at him with the big spear.

Almost simultaneously, the Divine Domain erupted, instantly pushed to its maximum, covering the surrounding area, enveloping Rodrigo’s location.

Within the Divine Domain, everything is weakened, including Rodrigo’s domain, suppressing everything.

“Boom…”

Everything around became incredibly clear; within the Divine Domain, it was his world, and he was the absolute ruler.

Rodrigo felt the pressure suddenly appear; his domain was unexpectedly suppressed and weakened. His body seemed to enter a wall of domain, a violent force continuously striking, causing his heart to race and his blood to flow faster.

His mind was also invaded, making him feel as though he would lose his vision and hearing. Everything around seemed to be changing; it was no longer just above him, but a cosmic starry sky, an independent domain space.

Rodrigo knew this was an illusion caused by the Spiritual Domain.

However, Xu Mo, who merely stepped into the Skywalker realm a few years ago, when did he become adept at such powerful domain power?

If he excelled at such a level of Spiritual Domain, how was it possible for him not to kill the Archdruid Wulim of the Church back then?

“Boom boom.” Within the domain, it sounded like there were violent sonic booms; space roared, terrifying shock storms swept out. Rodrigo, gritting his teeth against the domain power, continued to advance towards Xu Mo; though suppressed, his realm was significantly stronger than Xu Mo’s, still carrying terrifying momentum to attack Xu Mo’s body.

However, just as he was charging towards Xu Du, countless lights of destruction burst within the Divine Domain; they seemed like divine thunders of annihilation, or swords traversing through space, merging as one, endlessly coming with a horrifying storm of destruction for the kill.

Around Rodrigo’s body appeared layer upon layer of Energy Shields, spreading outward. The terrifying lights of destruction bombarded the shields, causing them to vibrate fiercely. The dense array of flying swords quickly destroyed the shields.

Rodrigo let out a loud roar, thrusting forward with the big spear in his hand. The terrifying shockwave roared, forcibly tearing the Heavenly Killing Formation apart, even piercing through the domain’s suppression, advancing all the way toward Xu Mo’s position.

But at the same time, Xu Mo surprisingly did not dodge; instead, he swung down with the gigantic Thunder Hammer.

“Boom…”

A deafening sound erupted in the middle of the battlefield; both their bodies were flung backward. Xu Mo felt waves of destructive power crashing into his body as if intending to shatter it, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

However, Rodrigo was also not at ease. The Thunder God’s Hammer smashed down, a blend of power, destruction, and spiritual attack. While his body resonated, he felt the spiritual power in his mind also suffered a heavy hammer blow. Xu Mo’s combat skill attack seemed to have integrated a spiritual attack within it.

Within the Divine Domain, his power was weakened, while Xu Mo’s abilities were amplified, fully integrating into the Divine Domain.

This collision had a huge impact on the observers around.

Olmer, the Chief Elder of the Mystic God Temple, felt a ripple in his heart. Although he did not know about the ‘First Sequence,’ he knew Xu Mo’s status in the Mystic God Temple was unusual. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dispatched them to suppress the Rodrigo family.

But Xu Mo’s combat power was beyond his expectations.

Vera O’Brien’s beautiful eyes gazed at the battlefield, looking at Xu Mo with some surprise. It seemed that when sparring with her, Xu Mo had held back.

However, Vera O’Brien did not blame Xu Mo, after all, he did this to expose Rodrigo’s plot.

This was different from Rodrigo’s nature; Rodrigo had ulterior motives, intending to take action against her, even treating her as his own.

But Xu Mo sought to reveal Rodrigo’s treachery, helping her see through Rodrigo; otherwise, she’d still be deceived by him today. Hence, Vera’s feelings were naturally different.

As for the Transcendents of the Mystic God Temple, their hearts were shocked.

They knew Xu Mo the least, never expecting that Xu Mo could hold his own against Rodrigo?

Just now, Rodrigo used the combat skill ‘Wasteland’ spear, symbolizing destruction and renewal, shattering the target into desolate fragments, extremely domineering. Yet, this strike was blocked by Xu Mo’s Thunder God’s Hammer.

Doesn’t this mean that Xu Mo now possesses the combat power of the top three in the Mystic God Ranking?

The impact on the Cultivators of the Mystic God Temple was imaginable.

Three years ago, when Xu Mo first entered the Skywalker realm, the two Skywalkers from the Capital Star Mystic God Temple challenged him and were refused.

Afterward, Xu Mo directly entered the top thirty of the Mystic God Ranking. Many still thought he relied on potential.

Three years later, today, Xu Mo directly surpassed the Mystic God Ranking, reaching the peak, engaging in a life-and-death battle with the third-ranked Rodrigo.

In the battlefield, Rodrigo stared at Xu Mo.

He was actually repelled.

Feeling the omnipresent and continuously suppressing domain power, Rodrigo felt extremely uncomfortable as though he were trapped in a swamp, but at this moment, his killing intent reached its peak.

“Boom…”

Ferocious Energy Aura crazily roared out, surrounding Rodrigo’s body, as if sculpting an Energy Armor for him.

One wave after another of terrifying energy fluctuations swept outward, growing stronger, Rodrigo’s eyes seemingly surrounded by Energy Light, lifting the big spear in his hand, a more violent momentum erupted from him.

Such a result was unacceptable.

He wanted Xu Mo, dead.

“Boom.” Rodrigo stepped forward, his momentum rising, getting stronger, like gathering strength. The storm swept forward; at this moment, Rodrigo had no reservations, unleashing his full force.

He had no interest in probing or battling slowly.

He wanted to kill, with the strongest attack, to slay Xu Mo in the air.
