The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1134 - 1132: After the Ninth Stage! Qinghe and Chang Yun!

Chapter 1134: Chapter 1132: After the Ninth Stage! Qinghe and Chang Yun!

Hua Yuxian stood by, watching the scene unfold with wide eyes and jaw dropped so far that she could fit an egg in her mouth!

"Lin Bai actually killed the Saint’s incarnation!"

Hua Yuxian couldn’t believe it.

In that moment of trance, Lin Bai had turned into a waning shadow and dashed into the teleportation gate!

Once Lin Bai entered the teleportation gate, the gate gradually disappeared within the Ninth Stage.

"It seems I was not wrong, this man is indeed a sharp sword for the Five Poison Sect!" Hua Yuxian immediately smirked coldly, "Perhaps given some time, he could really grow strong enough to withstand Yejian Jun!"

"But now that he has provoked Yejian Jun, I wonder if he can withstand Yejian Jun’s pressure!"

"In front of Yejian Jun, killing Yejian Jun’s follower, I’m afraid this Five Pinnacle Saint won’t let it go so easily!"

A hint of a sorrowful expression appeared on Hua Yuxian’s face.

Immediately, Hua Yuxian turned and left the area, continuing to search for Blood Crystals in the Ninth Stage, since she was out of luck with the Ascension Fruits, Hua Yuxian had to use the last bit of time to search for Blood Crystals.

...

Behind the teleportation gate.

Lin Bai stumbled and fell straight to the ground!

The power of the Great Desolation Skill had disappeared, and a wave of weakness gradually spread throughout Lin Bai’s body!

"Youngster, didn’t think you’d have such a big life, even Yejian Jun’s incarnation couldn’t kill you." At that moment, an elderly voice echoed in Lin Bai’s ear.

Lin Bai looked up and saw a colossal, towering tree ahead of him.

But this tree had long since died, completely devoid of life!

However, with eyes as sharp as torches, Lin Bai still saw several emerald-green fruits hanging from the tree!

And beneath this tree, an old man sat cross-legged, his hair and eyebrows white as he looked at Lin Bai, his eyes showing hatred and a hint of surprise!

"You must be Chang Yun."

Lin Bai lay on the ground, completely drained due to the aftereffect of the Great Desolation Skill.

"Damn it, do you also call him Chang Yun? Didn’t your ancestors from the Sky-swallowing Clan teach you how to respect martial artists?" As soon as Chang Yun heard this, he immediately exploded in anger.

Although Chang Yun’s words seemed to scold Lin Bai, the implication was to mock Qinghe!

"Chang Yun, you consider yourself a Strong One too? Hahaha." Right after, a deranged laughter resonated nearby.

Hearing this laughter, Chang Yun’s face darkened, and he fell silent.

"Let me talk with my tribespeople first, and once he recovers, then come and take the Ascension Fruits." After this voice, an invisible force pulled Lin Bai’s body away!

"Hmph!"

Chang Yun snorted coldly but did not interfere!

Lin Bai’s body gradually flew away.

Before long, Lin Bai arrived in a realm of darkness, slowly descending downwards!

"This steel fork..."

As Lin Bai descended, he saw a steel fork about ten thousand feet tall, firmly embedded in the ground!

In the middle of the steel fork, a giant’s head was impaled!

When Lin Bai saw the steel fork, his pupils trembled; it was certainly no ordinary Extreme Martial Spiritual Artifact!

Even from a distance, Lin Bai felt a sense of shock!

"This steel fork is no ordinary item!"

Lin Bai’s eyes were stunned.

Gently moving down along the steel fork, Lin Bai’s gaze locked tightly onto the gigantic skull!

It was a head severed from the neck, the steel fork piercing through its crown, suspending it mid-air!

"This is the head of a Giant God..." Lin Bai’s pupils were horrified, as he looked at the skull, his scalp going numb recalling when he first saw the Giant God’s Intent; it was no different in size from this skull.

Lin Bai’s body gradually descended, landing on top of the skull!

Only then did Lin Bai realize, on this enormous skull, there lay a skeletal corpse on the ground, its eyes emitting two bizarre and unparalleled green fires!

As Lin Bai landed on the skull, the skeleton turned its head to look at him, the green fire in its eyes bursting with a brilliant glow!

"Are you the Senior Qinghe who spoke with me earlier? A member of my Sky-swallowing Clan?" Lin Bai looked at the skeleton, speaking with some astonishment.

The skeleton looked at Lin Bai, a warm voice slowly coming through: "I never thought that in this world of ants, I would still see a clansman of my Sky-swallowing Clan, could this be destined by the heavens?"

"What’s your name?"

The voice came, and Lin Bai recognized it; it was indeed the voice that had echoed next to his ears in the Eighth Stage, belonging to Qinghe.

"My name is Lin Bai." Lin Bai answered.

"Lin Bai..." Qinghe murmured: "Lin Bai, you have already reached the Heavenly Elixir Realm in cultivation, so does that mean you have already endured the Giant God’s Intent?"

When Qinghe brought this up, Lin Bai couldn’t help but show a bitter smile on his face: "Senior, you might not know, but it nearly cost me several lives."

"Hahaha, in this world of ants, without the great protection of our Sky-swallowing Clan, I had already guessed the extreme peril in withstanding the Giant God’s Intent with your cultivation," Qinghe said lightly.

"But since you’ve already endured the ordeal of the Divine Elixir, the Giant God’s Intent won’t bother you for a while, giving you an opportunity to breathe."

"However, you must not slack off. Since the Giant God’s Intent did not kill you, the Giant God Clan must already know of your existence. They will certainly come for you, intending to nip you in the bud before you gain momentum!"

"You need to strive in your cultivation, find the great protector of the Sky-swallowing Clan after leaving this world, and obtain his shelter, so you can be safe and sound!"

Lin Bai nodded and said, "Please rest assured, Senior. I have never slacked off in my cultivation, nor have I been complacent or lost myself in pride after withstanding the Giant God’s Intent."

Qinghe laughed: "It’s evident. The wisdom and resilience in your heart ensure you wouldn’t lose your way over a minor achievement."

Lin Bai sat on the giant skull, chatting casually with Qinghe.

At this moment, Lin Bai felt an exceptional warmth, as if he had found Lin Duo and Lin Bai’s mother, sitting together like a family, having a meal, chatting casually—exceptionally cozy and comfortable.

No external pressures, no deceit in the Martial World, just a heartfelt talk, just letting go!

"By the way, Senior Qinghe, how did you fall to this state..." Lin Bai, seeing Qinghe’s shriveled body emitting a strong aura of death with not a trace of life, curiously asked.

Qinghe smiled faintly: "You need not be surprised; I have been dead for many years, and the only reason I can still talk to you now is that there is still a remnant soul that has not perished within me!"

"Perhaps it is a blessing from the heavens, allowing me to meet you on this day when my remnant soul is about to extinguish!"

"Lin Bai, there’s something I’d like to ask for your help with."

As Qinghe spoke these words, his tone suddenly became solemn.

Lin Bai respectfully said, "Please speak frankly, Senior. If it’s within my means, I will not refuse."
