Chapter 1040: Chapter 1038: Two Great Opportunities at the Seven Stars Ruins! (5 more Chapters)

Lin Bai drew his Sword Qi, putting his life on the line!

The Sword Qi of Dugu Yun had the strength to effortlessly slay someone at the ninth layer of the Heavenly Elixir Realm.

The Sword Qi burst forth, tearing through the air.

A shadow of death swiftly enveloped Xiang Nong and Su Cang.

The expressions on their faces dramatically changed, and simultaneously, while thinking "this is bad," they immediately dodged backward.

Boom!

The Sword Qi swept across. Although Su Cang and Xiang Nong narrowly managed to evade it, the other Warriors and members of the Demon Clan were not so fortunate, being directly minced into pieces by this slash of Sword Qi.

Among them were two Great Demons from the Thirty-six Demon Mountains, killed on the spot!

"Such Sword Qi, to be so terrifying!"

Seeing two of his companions killed, Xiang Nong’s face showed an unprecedented shock.

They were both Great Demons of the Thirty-six Demon Mountains!

They both had the strength of the Heavenly Elixir Realm!

Yet, they were killed by this one slash of Sword Qi!

"Damn it, Su Cang managed to escape." Lin Bai saw that Su Cang only had some minor injuries. That Sword Qi had actually been avoided by him, which annoyed Lin Bai a bit!

From inside the Direct Disciple Palace came a violent rumbling noise.

Due to Lin Bai’s desperate move of unleashing Dugu Yun’s Sword Qi, the fierce power swept through the entire Direct Disciple Palace, causing the already unstable Great Hall to collapse thunderously.

Boulders and dust soared into the sky, the scene in utter chaos!

"This is bad! The Great Hall is collapsing!"

"Quick, get out, or we’ll all be buried alive here!"

"Let’s get out first!"

Some Warriors had initially wanted to take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits, but seeing the Great Hall collapsing, in order to save their lives, they too sought to leave quickly!

At that moment, Lin Bai’s gaze flickered. In the instant he repelled Su Cang and Xiang Nong, he pushed the Nine Rotations Sword Steps to their limit, and in a flash, he darted through the dust and debris!

As he passed a room,

Lin Bai saw a skeleton!

"How come there’s another room here?"

"A skeleton?"

"Since entering the Direct Disciple Palace, I have looked through hundreds of rooms and never found a single skeleton!"

"So this skeleton must be..."

"The remains of that Direct Disciple!"

Lin Bai’s face took on a look of shock as he hurriedly looked, exclaiming, "So the remains of that Direct Disciple are actually under this Meditation Room."

The location of this skeleton was beneath the Meditation Room of the Direct Disciple Palace.

Beneath the Meditation Room, there was a hidden chamber.

Had it not been for the collapse of the Great Hall at that moment, this hidden chamber might never have been discovered.

"I really am a blockhead, this person made it to the position of a Direct Disciple of the Red Immortal Sect not by being ordinary. How could he simply cultivate in a room?"

"Any smart Warrior would carve out a Secret Chamber in their residence for secluded cultivation, or even to endure the Life and Death Pass!"

"It seems this was the secluded cultivation spot of that Direct Disciple!"

Lin Bai raced forward, swept the remains of that Direct Disciple into his Storage Bag with one hand, then glanced around, saw nothing else in the Secret Chamber,

and immediately performed the Nine Rotations Sword Steps at high speed, fleeing the Direct Disciple Palace!

Whoosh—

Lin Bai followed a throng of Warriors as they burst out of the Direct Disciple Palace.

Outside on the plaza, Meng Yue and others watched in horror as the magnificent and vast Direct Disciple Palace collapsed behind them, with clouds of dust billowing into the sky.

Following that, a large number of Warriors emerged in a battered state from within.

Including Xiang Nong and Su Cang, among others.

"What happened?"

"How has the Direct Disciple Palace collapsed!"

"Look quickly, the Great Demons of the Demon Clan have all run out!"

"And there are several of our Spiritual Children, there goes Spirit Su Cang, he is also escaping!"

Meng Yue stood in the square, wide-eyed and dumbfounded as he watched the Great Hall collapse behind him!

Just then, a figure in a white robe burst out from the dust!

"It’s him!"

"Wasn’t he told to leave?"

"How did he run inside?"

Meng Yue recognized the figure in an instant, it was indeed Lin Bai, who he had just saved!

"Leave the elixir pills!"

"The Elixir Room’s elixir pills are on him!"

"Kill him!"

Su Cang and Xiang Nong, along with the warriors who had escaped from the Great Hall, furiously shouted at Lin Bai, drawing their weapons and launching a fierce attack.

"Flying Swords!"

"Sword-Controlling Skill!"

The moment Lin Bai left the Direct Disciple Palace, he directly stepped onto a flying sword and shot up into the Cloud Sky.

"What!"

"He can fly!"

"Damn it, he has a tremendous opportunity on him!"

"Just letting him escape, I can’t accept this!"

"I can’t accept this! I can’t accept this!"

"I hate this! I really hate this!"

A group of warriors watching Lin Bai take to the skies on his flying sword immediately pounded their chests and stomped, their faces filled with frustration as they roared with red-faced anger.

That was the elixir pills refined by the Direct Disciple himself.

Even if only a third was preserved, that was the greatest opportunity within the Direct Disciple Palace!

It was also the greatest opportunity within the Seven Stars ruins!

To think that a warrior at the Third Level of Earth Elixir Realm got it all, whereas these warriors at or above the Sixth Level of Earth Elixir Realm had been fighting here for over ten days without obtaining a single thing.

And those Great Demons and Spiritual Children, busied themselves for nothing!

"No!" Xiang Nong roared tragically, eyes fixated on Lin Bai’s flying sword, spewing a towering rage!

Su Cang’s eyes turned blood-red, his whole body trembling with anger!

Not just because Lin Bai had taken all the elixir pills and treasures, but most importantly, Su Cang had missed the best opportunity to kill Lin Bai!

Lin Bai, standing on the flying sword, felt the weakness of the Great Desolation Skill start to overcome him. He looked back at Su Cang and Xiang Nong: "Su Cang, rivers and mountains may meet; next time we meet, you will surely die by my sword!"

"And you people from the Demon Clan, wait, I will come for you!"

Whoosh—

The flying sword pierced the sky, vanishing into the horizon in a blink of an eye!

Lin Bai, riding away on the flying sword, left thousands of warriors on that mountain peak, all shouting in frustration!

In the Seven Stars ruins, the two greatest opportunities.

The first was this Direct Disciple’s Elixir Room, where he had refined many elixir pills, some of which he didn’t need and were kept in the Elixir Room.

The elixir pills that the Direct Disciple didn’t need were of great use to those warriors of Earth Elixir Realm and Heavenly Elixir Realm.

For instance, the "Yellow Sacred Pill" and "Nine Cast Pill" that Lin Bai had seen before, these were considered treasures for those in the Earth Elixir Realm and Heavenly Elixir Realm, hardly found even on Miracle Ridge.

The second opportunity was the storage bag of this Direct Disciple, at that moment a large number of warriors were still searching through the collapsed Great Hall, hoping to find the remains of this Direct Disciple and his storage bag!

But they did not know that in the chaos just now, Lin Bai had taken the remains of this Direct Disciple along with the storage bag!

As long as Lin Bai could return alive to the Five Peaks of the Miracle Ridge, he was undoubtedly the greatest benefactor of this exploration of the Seven Stars ruins, having seized both opportunities for himself.
