The eyes of all the Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members went wide as they felt a spirit sense stronger than ever before. It broke through their defenses as if they were air and quickly entered their bodies. Feeling as if they had been violated, the anger appeared on the faces of all the Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members here.
"I see now… no wonder you all reached the Dao Treading realm…" Lin Mu spoke in a low voice.
"Y-you!!!!" The Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members were furious at his act and were feeling humiliate.
But before they could do anything, Lin Mu acted first.
Extending his right hand towards the Dao Embryos, he lightly uttered a word.
"Meld…"
As soon as that word was said, the fused Dao Embryos let out a cry
~skweee~
The Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members wanted to retreat at that moment and withdraw their Dao Embryo's, feeling the greatest danger of their lives. It was many times greater than now when they were facing Daoist Hua after his Noon Of Life was activated.
Then, under the stunned eyes of all, the Dao Embryo was split apart.
"HOW!?" The five elders let out a surprised shout.
Even when the Noon Moon Paling's strongest attack had hit the Dao Embryo, it had only caused damage momentarily and it had healed. But now the entire Dao Embryo had been split apart.
Lin Mu didn't stop at that either, and gestured with his fingers in a sideways motion.
~SKEWEEEE~
The Dao Embryo let out more cries as it was bisected once again. Now it was split apart into four segments that continued to wiggle and writhe.
~SKWEEE~
The four segments were now increased to eight as Lin Mu moved his hand once more.
~SKWEEE~
He did it again, and now there were sixteen segments. Lin Mu didn't stop doing it and the Dao Embryo kept on getting split into smaller and smaller fragments.
The Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members were helpless and couldn't even react in time. To them, while it all looked long, merely two seconds had passed. Lin Mu's hand had in fact moved at great speed and it was merely the fear that they were feeling which had heightened their senses temporarily.
The adrenaline running through their veins slowed down time for them, but their bodies couldn't react at the same speed.
Once the Dao Embryo was reduced to over sixty segments, Lin Mu disappeared from where he was standing and appeared right next to where the Dao Embryos were.
"WHAT ARE Y—" The Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members tried to stop Lin Mu, but it was too late.
A heart wrenching pain assaulted all of them as their Dao Embryo disappeared into thin air.
~cough~
~cough~
~Cough~
The three Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members suddenly coughed out copious amounts of blood. Their noses, ears and eyes started to bleed as well and their aura started to weaken.
"You… what… what… what did you do?" one of the Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members asked with difficulty.
They could tell what had happened, but it was impossible for them to believe it. Their links with the Dao Embryos had been broken abruptly. This was different than when they let out their Dao Embryos from their Dao Shells. They were still linked to them at a deeper level and even if they went further, the Dao Embryos would continue to stay linked to them.
But now they were broke apart entirely. Even when the Dao Embryos were split apart multiple times, they had not been destroyed entirely and there was still their link with them.
Unfortunately for them, Lin Mu didn't deem them worthy enough to answer. He simply turned to face them and a golden glow suddenly appeared on his body.
~SWOOSH~
He stepped onto the ground and lunged forward.
~BOOM~
A crater two meters deep formed in the ground from that single step as spiderweb like cracks spread from it. Lin Mu appeared in front of the armless Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Member and slapped out his hand.
~Splat~
His hand struck the head of the armless Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Member and instantly exploded it. The man couldn't even realize when it happened and was too slow to react.
"What in the…" The five elders were stunned at this scene.
The Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members they were trying so hard to kill was eliminated with a single attack. Not to mention this was Dao Treading realm experts they were talking about. Even if they were weakened, their bodies were still strong enough to resist several attacks, and yet it all seemed to be different.
~shua~
A faint flow appeared on the chest of the now dead Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Member as its Nascent soul tried to escape.
"Where do you think you are going?" Lin Mu quickly caught the Nascent soul in his hand.
The face of the Nascent soul was that of absolute horror. It tried to struggle, but in Lin Mu's grip it was useless.
Lin Mu stared at the Nascent soul and saw how muddied it looked as well.
"Useless to even be eaten…" Lin Mu scoffed and crushed the Nascent soul in his hand.
~Poof~
The nascent soul disappeared as if it never existed and Lin Mu gazed the remaining two Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members. They looked at him and found him standing next to them in the next moment.
~shua~
Lin Mu's hand moved again, but this time the Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Members actually managed to dodge. It was a close dodge, but they still did it.
Lin Mu tilted his neck towards them and disappeared again, reappearing above them.
"DAMMIT!" They cursed and tried to move again.
One of the Dao Treading realm Gu Legion Member managed to slip by, but one was still caught.
Lin Mu clenched the man's neck in his hand and lifted him up like a chick. Gazing into the man's eyes, he squeezed it until both the head and body were separated.
~thud~thud~
