Chapter 1119: Chapter 1117: Qinghe Makes a Move! A Finger Shatters the Heavens!

Long Hui approached, staring coldly at Lin Bai!

"Sir, we have no grudges against each other, why bother attacking me with a sneak attack?" Lin Bai looked at the tiny pinhole in his chest with lingering fear, his expression chilling.

If Lin Bai hadn’t dodged in time just now, that silver needle would have definitely pierced through his heart.

And the moment the silver needle entered his body, the terrifying power of the Extreme Martial Spiritual Artifact would have exploded from within, shattering Lin Bai’s heart and his internal organs!

"No grudges? Hmph, how can there be no grudges when you’ve grossly insulted my Demon Clan seniors?" Long Hui said icily to Lin Bai, his words laced with unmistakable anger.

"Die for me!"

Long Hui didn’t want to waste any more words with Lin Bai, with a flick of his hand, that Shadowless silver needle attacked again!

The silver needle seemed to merge into the void, leaving no trace to be found!

"Flying Swords! One Sword Becomes Thousands!"

The moment Lin Bai saw the silver needle disappear from Long Hui’s hand, he immediately operated his flying swords, and countless sword shadows descended densely, forming a blockade in front of Lin Bai.

This was a clever use of the Swords Skill Lin Bai had developed himself!

Thousands of sword shadows could be used not only for offense but for defense as well!

Clang, clang, clang, clang—

As thousands of sword shadows enveloped the area around Lin Bai, a series of metallic piercing sounds rang out!

Turning his head, Lin Bai saw a silver needle penetrating all the sword shadow defenses, aiming right for the center of his brow!

"Not good!"

The shadow of death on the needle made Lin Bai break into a cold sweat!

"Go!"

Lin Bai retracted the sword shadows, and the flying sword appeared once again!

At once, Lin Bai stepped onto the flying sword, turning into a streak of light that vanished from the spot!

"Thinking of running? Leave behind!" Long Hui’s expression darkened, and he immediately executed his movement technique to pursue.

But just then.

In the direction where Lin Bai had fled with his flying sword, another burly man appeared in front of Lin Bai.

He had just arrived at the Seventh Stage and hadn’t yet figured out the situation when he saw a streak of light rushing towards him, startling him into exclaiming, "Damn, what is this thing?"

This person instinctively took out a weapon, a battle axe infused with the power of a thunderbolt.

The moment he saw the streak of light, he struck it down in mid-air!

On the Thunder Axe, a destructive force capable of shattering the void came crashing down!

Splat—

This one strike slashed straight at Lin Bai!

It sent Lin Bai flying backward, landing a hundred meters away, spitting out blood, his face pale!

"Fu Yuan, your timing is perfect!"

"If you had come just a minute later, I would have feared losing track of this person’s speed."

Long Hui now approached, a smile emerging on his face.

"Long Hui, what’s the situation here? Why are there so many corpses of the Demon Clan seniors?" Fu Yuan looked up in surprise the moment he arrived.

Long Hui looked up and said, "This place must be the Demon Tomb."

After that, Long Hui briefed Fu Yuan on Lin Bai’s actions.

Strong anger emanated from Fu Yuan: "How dare you insult the corpses of our Demon Clan seniors, you deserve to die!"

Lin Bai got up from the ground, looking at the Thunder Axe in Fu Yuan’s hand, and coldly said, "Another Extreme Martial Spiritual Artifact, how come I haven’t found even one, yet they’ve found two!"

"Am I being targeted?"

Lin Bai lifted his gaze to the heavens above, his eyes sharp as if they pierced through the void, seeing the old man beyond the Ninth Stage, the current Sect Leader of the Red Immortal Sect, Chang Yun!

Chang Yun, seeing Lin Bai’s gaze coming his way, immediately revealed a cold sneer.

"Qinghe, it seems your clan’s junior is about to perish," Chang Yun said with a cold laugh.

"Hmph, Chang Yun, since you’ve given your chosen one an unfair advantage, don’t blame me for helping my clan’s junior," Qinghe replied with a slight smile upon hearing Chang Yun’s voice.

Hearing Qinghe’s voice, Chang Yun was momentarily shocked and said coldly, "Qinghe, don’t tell me you plan to personally eliminate Long Hui and Fu Yuan? You’ve got some nerve, dealing with such juniors yourself!"

"Heh, my skin is thinner than yours; I wouldn’t do something so shameless!" Qinghe chuckled in response.

"Moreover, with my current condition, killing people would consume too much energy,"

"But to kill a few already dead demon beasts, that would still be more than sufficient."

Qinghe sneered coldly.

"What do you intend to do?" Chang Yun’s expression turned vicious!

"Hah, what can I do in my current state?" Qinghe sneered coldly.

...

Within the Seventh Stage.

Facing the hostility of Fu Yuan and Long Hui, Lin Bai’s expression grew increasingly cold!

"Long Hui, there’s no need for you to act. Let me hack him to pieces alive," Fu Yuan snorted coldly, raising the Thunder Axe and furiously chopping it down at Lin Bai, with the torrential glow of thunderbolts tearing apart the sky as it fell!

"Supreme Sword! Godslayer!"

Lin Bai roared coldly and instantly a sword shot out!

After releasing the attack, Lin Bai was still not reassured and immediately his Flying Sword flickered, following through with a rush!

"Swords Skill, one sword becomes a thousand!"

Two attacks, one after another, killed simultaneously!

"Hmph, not even worth one strike!" Fu Yuan laughed coldly on and on!

The power of a single chop from the Thunder Axe was terrifyingly impactful, surging forth in an instant and colliding together!

Bang bang!

Two loud noises spread!

That single chop directly shattered Lin Bai’s two attacks and, without the slightest decrease in power, smashed into Lin Bai’s chest!

Splat!

Blood splattered everywhere!

Lin Bai cried out in pain as his figure involuntarily flew backward!

Crashing to the ground, Lin Bai looked down to see a terrifying wound on his chest, stretching from his left shoulder to the lower right side of his belly, with fresh blood flowing continuously.

Through the wound, Lin Bai could clearly see the white bones inside and his beating heart!

"To survive a blow from my Extreme Martial Spiritual Artifact was unexpected—you could be considered the number one warrior within the fourth layer of the Heavenly Elixir Realm."

Seeing Lin Bai on the ground, coughing up blood continuously, Fu Yuan’s face revealed a chilly smile, "Since one axe couldn’t kill you, how about another?"

"Do you still have the ability to take another one?"

Fu Yuan sneered, lifting the Thunder Axe again, his eyes looking contemptuously at Lin Bai as he gradually brought the axe down!

"Damn it!"

"My strength is still too weak!"

"With my current cultivation at the fourth layer of the Heavenly Elixir Realm, to fight against those of the ninth layer and Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm is too difficult!"

"Is this where it all ends?"

Lin Bai looked at the battle axe Fu Yuan raised, a trace of despair appearing on his face!

Now Lin Bai’s trump cards, whether it be the Nine Rotations Sword Steps, Supreme Sword, or Devouring Sword Spirit, were all insufficient to close the gap in cultivation level between him and both Long Hui and Fu Yuan!

"I have no choice but to use... the Great Desolation Skill!"

Lin Bai gritted his teeth and silently began to channel the power of the Great Desolation Skill within his body!

This was a situation Lin Bai was extremely reluctant to see!

Once he deployed the Great Desolation Skill and its power dissipated, Lin Bai would have a period of weakness lasting three to four days!

In this period of weakness, being within the Nine Stages was undoubtedly extremely fatal!

Boom—

Just as Lin Bai was ready to fight desperately, suddenly the inside of the Seventh Stage shook violently.

Lin Bai, Long Hui, and Fu Yuan were all startled by this sudden tremor.

All three of them looked up only to see a gigantic finger pressing down from the sky of the Seventh Stage, a terrifying power spreading as if it were extinguishing all life under heaven!

Within this force, countless demon beast corpses turned to ash, and myriad Corpse Control Bugs were directly eradicated!
