The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1053 - 1051: Emperor-grade Martial Soul! Taigu Dragon Soul!

Chapter 1053: Chapter 1051: Emperor-grade Martial Soul! Taigu Dragon Soul!

Lin Bai continued forward, and in front of him appeared more than seven hundred and twenty spirit puppets!

Lin Bai didn’t retreat in the slightest, his flying swords flashed; the Purple Cloud Sword and Qingge Sword, along with Lin Bai’s movements, started a fierce battle within the group of spirit puppets.

In the darkness.

The gray-haired elder and Fishing Old Man watched Lin Bai’s slaughter on the Martial Soul Road.

"Not bad, with his strength, if he were on the same level as the Red Immortal Sect’s direct disciples, he would at least not be at the bottom," the elder said lightly.

"Heh!" the Fishing Old Man chuckled lightly, "Back in the day, the disciple from the Red Immortal Sect faced over seven hundred and twenty spirit puppets and ended up being beaten black and blue. Are you actually saying that they are equal to him?"

"Let me tell you, if Lin Bai’s cultivation were in the same realm as the Red Immortal Sect’s direct disciples, just considering cultivation alone and not methods, Lin Bai could easily crush them!"

"Just watch. His true strength has not been fully unleashed yet!"

"After all, he hasn’t even used his Martial Soul!"

"Once he uses his Martial Soul, these spirit puppets in front of him will be as flimsy as paper!"

The Fishing Old Man said with a light laugh.

"Is that not the case? Didn’t you see the Devouring Martial Soul of that senior back then?" the Fishing Old Man said with a somber voice.

After hearing this, the elder’s pupils revealed a hint of reminiscence, then his eyes became filled with shock and wariness!

"How many Martial Souls are there in this place?" asked the Fishing Old Man.

"Here, there are nine hundred thousand Yellow Level Martial Souls, seven hundred thousand Mysterious Grade Martial Souls, one hundred thousand Earth Grade Martial Souls, ten thousand Heaven Level Martial Souls, nine hundred Emperor Level Martial Souls, and not a single God Level Martial Soul."

The elder said lightly.

"Didn’t I remember that several God Level Martial Souls emerged within the Red Immortal Sect back in the day? Weren’t they recorded here?" the Fishing Old Man asked.

"It’s true that the Red Immortal Sect did have nine God Level Martial Souls back then, but the first eight unfortunately perished and their Martial Souls dissipated. Xuanyang fell during a fight with a monster, and the Red Immortal Sect was in too much turmoil to collect Xuanyang’s Martial Soul," the elder explained lightly.

"What a pity," the Fishing Old Man said faintly. "But obtaining an Emperor-grade Martial Soul is also quite good."

The elder chuckled lightly, "But you’ve also said that he has a devouring type of Martial Soul, a member of the Sky-swallowing Clan. A devouring type of Martial Soul is even more monstrous than a God Level Martial Soul!"

"Do you really think he would care about a mere Emperor-grade Martial Soul?"

"Something is better than nothing," retorted the Fishing Old Man.

...

"Kill!"

Lin Bai, with bloodshot eyes, continued his rampage down this road.

The spirit puppets kept emerging, and Lin Bai kept slaying them!

As Lin Bai killed more and more spirit puppets, an increasing number of oil lamps lit up around him.

Lin Bai glanced to the side!

"Yellow Level 9 Martial Soul, Taixu Sword!"

"Xuan-level Third Grade Martial Soul, Immortal Flowers!"

"Earth Grade 9 Martial Soul, Heavenly Enchanting Heart!"

"..."

One by one, the lamps were lit.

"Earth Grades are appearing now, which means Heaven Level isn’t far off," Lin Bai took a glance at the stand with an Earth Grade 9 Martial Soul, refocused, and continued forward!

As the spirit puppets once again appeared, Lin Bai charged forward and commenced the slaughter!

"Heaven Level First Grade Martial Soul, Demon Eye!"

"Heaven Level Seventh Grade Martial Soul, Sword Emperor’s Blade!"

"..."

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul! Taigu Dragon Soul!"

Lin Bai took a side glance and saw an exceptionally bright oil lamp among the thousands, which stood out and caught his eye!

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Taigu Dragon Soul!" Lin Bai looked at this lamp, a hint of yearning in his heart.

Emperor-grade Martial Souls!

On the entire Barbaric Ancient Continent, Emperor-grade Martial Souls were the stuff of legend!

Even in East Continent, you could count the number of Emperor-grade Martial Souls on two hands, and there wouldn’t be any more than that!

And on the Miracle Ridge, the appearance of a Heaven Level Ninth Grade Martial Soul was already considered a treasure.

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul!"

Lin Bai was somewhat tempted.

Lin Bai felt that as long as his conviction wavered, the oil lamp would fly over and become Lin Bai’s second Martial Soul!

Lin Bai stood on the stone path, lost in thought for a long time.

His face was a continuous struggle.

Lin Bai really wanted this Emperor-grade Martial Soul, but he also wanted to continue pushing forward!

Now, having walked this stone path for who knows how long, having killed for who knows how long, having slain countless Spirit Puppets, Lin Bai had lost track; in that very instant, all Lin Bai wanted was to slaughter, to break through to the very end.

Deliberation!

Deliberation!

Struggle!

Hesitation!

If Lin Bai continued to push forward and failed, defeated by a Spirit Puppet, then he would lose all rights to make a choice, unable to even take away a Yellow Level Martial Soul!

Was he to choose this one Emperor-grade Martial Soul, or continue forward, risking losing everything?

Lin Bai thought for a long time.

"I’ve come this far!"

"If it’s not the best Martial Soul here, I would rather not have it!"

"Besides, my Devouring Sword Spirit is comparable to a God-level Martial Soul!"

"If what I obtain this time isn’t a God-level Martial Soul, it’s not of much significance to me!"

"Then...let’s continue!"

Having made up his mind, Lin Bai continued forward.

The Devouring Sword Spirit was the pinnacle among all Martial Souls Under Heaven; though only at Yellow Level First Grade, its potential was definitely greater than that of a God-level Martial Soul, otherwise, the Giant God Clan would not have dreaded the Sky-swallowing Clan for so long nor pursued them for so many years.

Moreover, the Giant God Clan had once clearly stated that the Martial Souls and Ways of the Sky-swallowing Clan possessed the power to overturn all the Heavens and Myriad Realms! Therefore, every single member of the Sky-swallowing Clan must die!

"I wonder if there are any God-level Martial Souls here?"

Lin Bai continued to walk forward.

As Spirit Puppets appeared, Lin Bai killed!

From the first Spirit Puppet to now facing more than two thousand four hundred Spirit Puppets directly appearing before Lin Bai!

So many Spirit Puppets could drown Lin Bai!

But Lin Bai still managed to carve a bloody path through this surrounded onslaught!

More than two thousand four hundred Spirit Puppets successively perished under Lin Bai’s sword!

At this moment, the surrounding oil lamps lit up again!

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Eternal Life Flower!"

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Qingshuang Emperor Sword!"

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Snow Silkworm Tower!"

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Vermilion Bird Flame!"

"Emperor-grade Martial Soul, Medicine God Cauldron!"

"..."

Whirrr——

All the lights in the entire dark space lit up.

"They’re all lit up?"

Lin Bai looked up, all the candlelights were flickering incessantly in the darkness!

Lin Bai scanned them one by one, taking in all the Emperor-grade Martial Souls before him.

"No God-level ones?"

Lin Bai gave a bitter smile.

Lin Bai began searching earnestly.

"Forget it, since there are no God-level Martial Souls, I’ll just pick out the most suitable Emperor-grade Martial Soul for myself."

Lin Bai searched for a very long time, without finding any God-level Martial Souls!

Just as Lin Bai was about to give up hope, he suddenly saw an oil lamp, and the flame revealed words: "Quasi-God Level Martial Soul, Seizing God Martial Soul!"
