Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department-Chapter 618 - 616: Seeking the Gold Coin
If it weren't for Xin Ziruo blocking Mo Lin's strike with the cost of losing an arm, she would have died just now.
The incident happened too suddenly.
Catching everyone present off guard.
No one expected Mo Lin to actually make a move.
Even more surprising, even a god's strike was blocked.
Everyone present was astounded.
Xin Ziruo was so unprepared, which is why she ended up in such a sorry state.
Mo Lin gritted his teeth, a hint of disappointment flashing deep in his eyes.
Xin Ziruo reacted too quickly, preventing Mo Lin from killing her immediately.
Missing the best opportunity for revenge.
Nvwa being able to block a god's strike had already exhausted all of Mo Lin's strength.
Blocking a second attack from the god would be difficult.
The hand of the god hovered above Mo Lin's head. Seeing Mo Lin's inaction, it did not continue with another move.
If the god's palm were to fall, Mo Lin would definitely be unable to stop it and might even be crushed to pulp.
Mo Lin was sensible, seeing he couldn't kill Xin Ziruo in one strike, he stopped his action.
Xin Ziruo gritted her teeth, not afraid of Mo Lin attacking her again.
Xin Ziruo knew well that this god would not allow Mo Lin to attack again.
Moreover, Xin Ziruo had her own methods, which were not inferior to Mo Lin's.
As for the severed hand earlier, it was simply because she was unprepared.
The god stared intensely at Mo Lin, the oppressive feeling made Mo Lin struggle to breathe for a moment.
At this moment, Nvwa stood beside Mo Lin, her blue robe gently fluttering without wind, as she looked up at the god.
Everyone around held their breath, guessing Mo Lin's fate.
After all, Mo Lin had caused trouble.
He had offended the god's dignity, at the very least he would be expelled from here, or face another severe punishment.
"Stop your antics; you must follow the rules here."
Once his words fell, the god withdrew his palm.
Everything returned to calm.
The jaws of everyone present nearly dropped in shock.
"What the heck?"
"That's it?"
"Is it over?"
Everyone had guessed that Mo Lin would face severe punishment, but unexpectedly nothing happened.
Even Mo Lin himself was momentarily stunned.
Mo Lin had mentally prepared to be expelled from here, but things developed contrary to his expectations.
"He caused trouble, and that's it?" Xin Ziruo shouted at the god in refusal to accept.
She had deliberately provoked Mo Lin, aiming for him to offend the god, thus getting expelled from the Seasonal Coins.
The current result was unacceptable to Xin Ziruo.
"Are you questioning me?"
The god's voice exploded like muffled thunder in the air.
Xin Ziruo could only bow her head in helplessness, swallowing her countless grievances.
She wasn't arrogant enough to oppose a god.
"I'll forgive you this time only because of your sister," the god slowly said to Mo Lin.
The sister he referred to was likely Mo Lin Yue, whose body was occupied by an Immortal Spirit from the Cloud Immortal Realm.
As for what relationship this god had with Mo Haiyue, Mo Lin remained clueless.
Nonetheless, the matter ended in this manner, even leaving Mo Lin himself a bit surprised.
Mo Lin no longer acted against Xin Ziruo.
First, Xin Ziruo was now prepared, making it difficult to kill her.
Second, Mo Lin consuming all his strength to summon Nvwa meant that even taking action might not defeat Xin Ziruo, and the god would no longer permit Mo Lin to attack.
Under various circumstances, Mo Lin had to give up the idea of acting.
As for Xin Ziruo, she was naturally furious from losing an arm, but due to the god's oppressive presence, she dared not act.
She lacked the courage like Mo Lin to offend the god's dignity in the presence of a deity.
The god waved his arm.
"Boom..."
The entire ground suddenly trembled, followed by a sensation of the heavens and earth spinning.
Mo Lin even felt as though the whole world had overturned.
Mo Lin seemed to be in a vast starry sky.
Light flickered all around, like stars.
On closer inspection, these stars were Copper Coins.
Copper Coins radiated starlight, either floating in midair or above the clouds.
"Each Copper Coin possesses different abilities; you may fight for them yourselves."
Once these words fell, the god waved his hand, and the Copper Coins in the sky began to shuttle back and forth.
The scenario differed from what Lan Yuyan had previously described about the Seasonal Coins.
Lan Haiyue's heart raced; she knew that obtaining any Copper Coin would drastically transform her abilities.
She wasn't greedy, just obtaining any Copper Coin would suffice.
Seemingly simple, but in reality, it was fraught with danger.
Each Copper Coin had a Guardian, so acquiring a Copper Coin required defeating the Guardian.
If one failed, they would perish.
"Mo Lin, hurry and seize the Copper Coins, or it won't be easy to snatch them if you're slow."
Seeing Mo Lin hesitating, Lan Yuyan reminded him, "The deeper the Copper Coin, the harder it is to obtain."
Mo Lin's gaze darted around, "Money... money..."
Wherever his eyes scanned, no money could be seen.
Mo Lin wasn't uninterested in Copper Coins, but he came here specifically for money.
Seeing Mo Lin not seizing Copper Coins, Lan Yuyan suddenly guessed, exclaiming, "Are you planning to snatch money?"
"Yes." Mo Lin slowly nodded; he came here specifically looking for money.
Lan Yuyan was even more astonished.
Saying he understood, Mo Lin didn't even know the rules of Seasonal Coins.
Saying he didn't understand, but Mo Lin knew of the money.
"Money is deep inside, and there are only a few pieces, which ordinary people can't obtain," Lan Yuyan advised Mo Lin.
Even as capable as Mo Lin was, he wouldn't be able to acquire the money.
"We have only seven days here, and within seven days we must leave.
In seven days, you won't be able to obtain the money, you might as well give up on money and seize one Copper Coin, it's more realistic."
"Oh, so the money is deep inside." Mo Lin muttered while looking toward the innermost area.
Lan Yuyan rolled her eyes helplessly; it seemed Mo Lin hadn't listened to a word she said.
Mo Lin stepped forward, encountering a terrifying resistance.
As if walking through mud, it was extremely difficult to move forward.
It's no wonder Lan Yuyan advised Mo Lin to give up on money; there was some reason.
Mo Lin glanced at Xin Ziruo in the distance.
At that moment, Xin Ziruo's actions mirrored Mo Lin's; she too was moving forward, seemingly aiming for the money just like Mo Lin.
Feeling Mo Lin's gaze, Xin Ziruo then stared at Mo Lin, "Mo Lin, the revenge for my severed arm will surely come."
Xin Ziruo glared viciously at Mo Lin, her eyes filled with killing intent.
"Heh heh."
Mo Lin sneered, then turned to advance.
Who would take revenge on whom? It's not certain yet!
Mo Lin stepped forward with each stride, noticing something peculiar: as he exerted his abilities, the resistance lessened slightly.
When Mo Lin unleashed the Netherworld's Nether Fire, much of that resisting force diminished, and when he used the Immortal Technique, the resistance decreased further.
Mo Lin realized at this moment that obtaining money wasn't merely difficulty but rather a test of one's strength.
Without realizing it, Mo Lin had already taken a hundred steps forward.
