Chapter 1036: Chapter 1034: Direct Disciple Palace!

Kang Shiyun looked at Lin Bai with her delicate and beautiful face filled with grievance, her charming big eyes brimming with tears of grievance and anger.

"Tell me, were you laughing at me in your heart just now, thinking I’m a foolish woman?"

Kang Shiyun asked angrily.

"Uh, Senior Sister Kang, why would you think so? Just now, Senior Brother Kang and Senior Sister Kang righteously lent a hand, for which Lin Mou is deeply grateful," Lin Bai said with a faint smile.

"Hmph, I’ll believe in ghost before I believe you," Kang Shiyun said with indignation.

At this point, Kang Yiyang spoke solemnly, "Shiyun, that’s enough. I believe that Brother Lin Bai didn’t do it on purpose. Furthermore, Brother Lin Bai, if you wish to remain here, you must be extra careful."

"Rest assured, Senior Brother, I’ll just take a quick look and leave," Lin Bai said with a casual smile.

"Since that’s the case, we’ll leave the Seven Stars ruins first," Kang Yiyang said to Kang Shiyun.

After that, Kang Yiyang, helping the other disciples who had suffered severe injuries, left the palace.

Kang Shiyun glared fiercely at Lin Bai, "Hmph, little swindler!"

Feeling awkward, Lin Bai shrugged his shoulders and watched Kang Yiyang and Kang Shiyun depart.

Lin Bai then found a secluded place and took out the map.

"The most crucial opportunity on this mountain peak right now should be the Direct Disciple Palace."

Lin Bai put away the map, locked onto the location of the Direct Disciple Palace, and flew straight toward it.

Before long, Lin Bai had moved from halfway up the mountain to the summit.

At the summit, an incredibly majestic Direct Disciple Palace was situated at the peak of the mountain, standing as if secluded from the world. Before the palace, one could gaze out for thousands of miles.

"The Demon Clan also dares to vie with us for these ruins, are they courting death?"

"Mad, the warriors of the Miracle Ridge, come and fight a battle."

"I don’t need these ruins, but I’m going to kill all of you from the Demon Clan!"

"Come on, let’s see who kills whom?"

"..."

Lin Bai had just arrived in front of the Direct Disciple Palace when he immediately heard the sound of intense collisions of spiritual power.

Outside the Direct Disciple Palace was a melee.

The Demon Clan and the warriors were constantly clashing fiercely.

Looking up, Lin Bai saw at least five hundred warriors and over three hundred from the Demon Clan, each with a cultivation of at least the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm. The strength they were unleashing was utterly terrifying.

"All the warriors and the Demon Clan here are above the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm!"

"Looks like I need to be a bit more cautious in my actions."

As Lin Bai was about to enter the Direct Disciple Palace, he instantly tensed up.

The cultivation level of the warriors and the Demon Clan here was too high. If Lin Bai wasn’t careful, he might face the danger of falling here.

"Want to enter the palace, huh?"

Lin Bai looked up and saw, beyond the battlefield, the Direct Disciple Palace itself.

Immediately, he executed the Nine Rotations Sword Steps with all his might. His figure turned into a waning shadow, darting through the battlefield and heading straight into the Direct Disciple Palace.

Lin Bai chose a path that was very secluded, taking a detour far away from the battlefield, which should have prevented the Demon Clan from discovering him.

But Lin Bai could not have anticipated every detail, and he was still noticed slightly by the Demon Clan.

Just as Lin Bai was nearing the Direct Disciple Palace.

Suddenly, a terrifying power converged on Lin Bai.

"An Earth Elixir Realm Third Level ant warrior dares to come to the Direct Disciple Palace? Are you seeking death? The Miracle Ridge has really declined, sending even Earth Elixir Realm Third Level warriors."

"May I inquire if you have come seeking death?"

Boom—

This force crushed the void and charged towards Lin Bai’s back.

Sweat drenched Lin Bai as he instantly turned his head to see a bald, fierce-looking warrior from the Demon Clan at the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm, who was swinging a vicious punch at him.

The Death Shadow that enveloped Lin Bai emanated from this Demon’s fist.

"Think you can kill a Miracle Ridge warrior? I’m afraid you’re not qualified enough!"

Just as Lin Bai was about to draw out his Qingge Sword and Purple Cloud Sword to counterattack, a warrior wielding a battle sword immediately came to his aid. With a powerful strike, he blocked the Demon, and then with a savage cleave, he split the Demon in two.

"Such immense power!"

Lin Bai looked at the Sword Cultivator in shock.

This person also possessed the Cultivation of the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm, but he had slain a Demon of the same realm with just two strikes.

The power of the Demon Clan far exceeded that of warriors within the same State.

And this Sword Cultivator had managed to overpower and slay the Demon with merely two strikes, which clearly showed his extraordinary strength!

After killing the Demon, the Sword Cultivator turned to Lin Bai, looked him up and down, and said, "Junior Brother, as a warrior of the Third Level of Earth Elixir Realm, what are you doing here?"

"If you want to try your luck in seeking fortune, go down below. This place is the Direct Disciple Palace, not where you should be."

"The Demons here have fully engaged in combat with the warriors. This is a battlefield for those above the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm. Your chances of surviving here are slim to none!"

The Sword Cultivator spoke urgently.

"Thank you for the warning, Senior Brother. Why don’t you enter the Direct Disciple Palace to look for opportunities?" Lin Bai asked the Sword Cultivator curiously.

"The Great Demons of the Thirty-six Demon Mountains and the nine Spiritual Children have already entered the Direct Disciple Palace, and we’ve been held up here by these Demons. It just so happens, they want to block us, and we want to kill them!"

"So we’ve been fighting up to now!"

The Sword Cultivator said.

"Up to now? What do you mean by that?" Lin Bai asked in surprise.

"Outside this Direct Disciple Palace, we have been fighting for more than ten days already. Ever since the ruins were discovered, we’ve been battling the Demon Clan here, and it’s still not over."

"As soon as one Demon is killed, another takes its place, and with reinforcements summoned from Battle Peak, a large number of warriors above the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm have arrived here."

"That’s why we’ve been fighting up to now," the Sword Cultivator said with a cold laugh.

"That’s truly admirable," Lin Bai said to the Sword Cultivator. "May I ask for your esteemed name, Senior Brother?"

"I am Meng Yue! What about you?" the Sword Cultivator asked.

"My name is Lin Bai! I’ve had the honor of meeting you, Senior Brother Meng Yue." Lin Bai greeted him with a fist and palm salute.

Meng Yue said coldly, "Stop the nonsense, and leave quickly. This place is not meant for you. If you want to try your luck and find some opportunities, try halfway up the mountainside."

"Yes, Senior Brother!" Lin Bai answered obediently.

"Take care, Senior Brother."

Right at that moment, a Demon lunged at Lin Bai and Meng Yue.

Hearing Lin Bai’s exclamation, Meng Yue instantly turned around, his sword aura raised, and attacked the Demon.

And as soon as Meng Yue made his move, Lin Bai immediately turned and leapt towards the Direct Disciple Palace!

"Stop! You, the warrior of the Third Level Earth Elixir Realm, let’s have a decisive death battle!"

As Lin Bai moved, a fierce Demon of the Sixth Level of Earth Elixir Realm hurled itself at him.

"You are not even worthy of a death battle with me!"

"Die!"

Lin Bai drew out the Purple Cloud Sword and the Qingge Sword, and both swords burst forth simultaneously with awe-inspiring sword auras that cut through heaven and earth, instantly shredding the Earth Elixir Realm Sixth Level Demon Beast into pieces.

With the Demon no longer hindering him, Lin Bai easily stepped out of the Direct Disciple Palace.

Turning back, he saw a ferocious battle before the Direct Disciple Palace, where warriors were locked in a bitter struggle with the Demon Clan.

"It seems the blood feud between the warriors and the Demon Clan on the Miracle Ridge has reached a point of no return."

"I really admire Senior Brother Meng Yue and the others. They’ve been fighting the Demons for more than ten days now!"

Lin Bai felt profound respect for warriors of Meng Yue’s caliber.

"The Great Demons of the Thirty-six Demon Mountains and the Spiritual Children have entered?"

"Then I need to hurry in and see if there are any other treasures left."

Lin Bai’s expression turned solemn as he flew into the Direct Disciple Palace.

After Meng Yue killed the Demon in front of him, he turned to see that Lin Bai had already disappeared, and sighed lightly, "I hope he realizes his place and has left already!"

Swish—

"Senior Brother Meng Yue, don’t stop now, come quickly and help me!" another warrior called for Meng Yue’s aid.

Meng Yue immediately wielded his sword to strike down his foes.
