The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1217 - 1215: The Goal of the Five Poison Sect!

Chapter 1217: Chapter 1215: The Goal of the Five Poison Sect!

Lin Bai said, "This is a bit strange! If the Five Poison Sect is going to fight a decisive battle with the Miracle Ridge, why aren’t the Sect Hierarch and the Guardian of the Sect Supreme of the Miracle Ridge in the Fengyun Dynasty?"

Lin Bai, Ye Wuhuan, and Dugu Yun all fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Bai Xiaoxiao said, "Gentlemen, have you noticed that this seems like a trap?"

"A trap?" Dugu Yun and Ye Wuhuan curiously looked towards Bai Xiaoxiao.

Ye Wuhuan said, "What makes Emperor Xiao say such?"

Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze shifted to the Warriors from the Miracle Ridge currently within the Fengyun Dynasty, and spoke lightly, "Master Ye Wuhuan, Master Dugu Yun, don’t you think that there are a bit too many Warriors from the Miracle Ridge?"

"The Warriors from the Miracle Ridge who have come here account for about one-third!"

"Too many people have come; it’s as if it’s a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"

Bai Xiaoxiao said lightly.

Ye Wuhuan said, "Does Emperor Xiao mean to say... that the real target of the Five Poison Sect is actually the Miracle Ridge? But what is there on the Miracle Ridge, that they’ve gone to such lengths to cause such a commotion in Lingdong?"

Lin Bai was silent, thinking.

"The Five Poison Sect has laid out such a large trap!"

"In half a month, they have destroyed all the Imperial Clans in Lingdong!"

"They have decided to battle with the Miracle Ridge inside the capital of the Fengyun Dynasty!"

"Such grand gestures, what exactly is their target?"

"Where exactly are the high-ranking members of the Five Poison Sect now?"

Lin Bai pondered, "If what Bai Xiaoxiao said is true, and the Five Poison Sect’s target is the Miracle Ridge, then what on the Miracle Ridge is worth the Five Poison Sect going through such great lengths to obtain?"

"Could the Five Poison Sect be planning to seize the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield? But that seems unrealistic. After all, even if the Five Poison Sect currently occupies the Miracle Ridge, as long as Ye Wuhuan and Dugu Yun lead the Warriors from the Miracle Ridge back, the Five Poison Sect won’t be able to hold the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield!"

"Then, what else on the Miracle Ridge is attracting them?"

As Lin Bai thought to this point, his eyes suddenly brightened.

Lin Bai quickly looked towards Dugu Yun.

At this moment, Dugu Yun suddenly realized, looking towards Lin Bai!

Lin Bai and Dugu Yun exchanged a glance and simultaneously said two words, "Divine Bone!"

Dugu Yun cursed inwardly and immediately soared into the sky!

Lin Bai followed, stepping onto his Flying Sword!

Whoosh whoosh!

At once, the two of them took to the sky without agreement, shooting towards the distance!

Ye Wuhuan, suddenly coming to a realization, immediately took off from the ground!

Bai Xiaoxiao and Jian Ruohan also followed, stepping onto their Flying Swords.

Dugu Yun, Lin Bai, Ye Wuhuan, Bai Xiaoxiao, and Jian Ruohan, the five of them took to the sky one after another, heading straight for the Miracle Ridge.

"Prince Chu, Your Majesty has left, let’s hurry up and follow," one of the imperial guardsmen said as he watched Bai Xiaoxiao leave, immediately shouting out.

Chu Jiangliu replied irritably, "Chase what chase? They’re all traveling on Flying Swords, covering tens of thousands of miles in an instant, can you catch up?"

"Let’s hope they can stop the Five Poison Sect."

"Otherwise, the blood spilled in Lingdong today will be even greater."

Chu Jiangliu said dispassionately.

After Bai Xiaoxiao left, the corpses that stood tall on the earth all collapsed onto the ground, never to rise again.

...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

Five extreme streaks of light flew rapidly across the earth!

Ye Wuhuan and Dugu Yun were experts of the Flying Sky Realm, capable of flying through the sky.

Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan, and Bai Xiaoxiao all possessed Flying Swords. Although the three of them were merely at the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm, their speed wasn’t much less than Ye Wuhuan and Dugu Yun’s. In fact, it was even faster!

Lin Bai caught up to Dugu Yun and said, "If I’m not mistaken, the target of the Five Poison Sect should be the Divine Bone!"

"The Divine Bone contains immense power!"

"The Five Poison Sect has not made a move for twenty years, neither earlier nor later, but they chose to act now. There must be something fishy!"

Lin Bai said to Dugu Yun.

Dugu Yun’s face darkened, "Only Master Ye Wuhuan and I know about the Divine Bone, even Zhao Longtu is clueless about its location."

"And after that, it was your turn."

"Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan, Bai Xiaoxiao, the three of you have seen the Divine Bone!"

"But at this moment, you are making an effort on behalf of the Miracle Ridge, so I believe it wouldn’t be any of you!"

"That leaves only one person."

"Only she knows the location of the Divine Bone."

Dugu Yun’s Eyes narrowed slightly, a chilling murderous intent flickering within his pupils.

"Hua Yuxian," Lin Bai said coldly.

When Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan, and Bai Xiaoxiao first discovered the Divine Bone, Hua Yuxian was also present.

If the leak of information didn’t come from Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan, and Bai Xiaoxiao, then it could only be Hua Yuxian.

...

Seven days later, Lin Bai rode his Flying Swords day and night back to the Miracle Ridge.

Upon entering the Five Peaks, he found that the area was still calm, with no signs of disturbance.

"Summon Sect Leader Zhao Longtu here," Master Ye Wuhuan commanded upon his arrival at the First Peak, immediately sending a message to Zhao Longtu.

But a Warrior replied, "Reporting to Master Ye Wuhuan, Sect Leader Zhao Longtu is currently not within the Nine Courtyards!"

"Not here?"

Ye Wuhuan was puzzled.

Instantly, Dugu Yun and Lin Bai both emerged from the First Peak and headed straight for the Second Peak.

Arriving at the Teleportation Point, the group immediately teleported out, entering the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield!

Lin Bai, Dugu Yun, Jian Ruohan, Bai Xiaoxiao, Ye Wuhuan, all rushed through the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield towards the burial site of the Divine Bone.

"Sect Leader Dugu Yun, after you left the Miracle Ridge, didn’t you arrange for some experts to guard the place where the Divine Bone was?" Lin Bai asked.

Dugu Yun spoke indifferently, "How could I not have made precautions? I placed over a thousand Spirit Puppets at the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm there, along with three at the Flying Sky Realm!"

"If the Five Poison Sect really targets the Divine Bone, they won’t be able to take it away easily," Dugu Yun said coldly.

These Spirit Puppets were all found by Dugu Yun on the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield.

"I hope these Spirit Puppets can really hold on until we return," Ye Wuhuan breathed deeply, his Eyes gleaming brilliantly as he dashed towards the distance.

After Lin Bai and Dugu Yun and the others returned to the Miracle Ridge.

At the burial site of the Divine Bone!

A continuous Slaughter was underway.

Thud—

Zhao Longtu, covered in blood, killed the last Spirit Puppet of the Flying Sky Realm with a punch.

"Damn it, Dugu Yun, that old fox, is so crafty. Although he left, he still left so many Spirit Puppets here, which have wasted so much of our time," said Zhao Longtu with an icy tone.

By Dugu Yun’s side, both Hua Yuxian and Sword Demon displayed faces filled with a sinister shade.

Clearly, they hadn’t expected Dugu Yun to leave Spirit Puppets in this place, especially three at the Flying Sky Realm!

Behind Dugu Yun, Hua Yuxian, and Sword Demon stood nearly five thousand Warriors.

The majority of these Warriors were experts above the seventh level of the Heavenly Elixir Realm, all arranged by the Five Poison Sect over the past twenty years as secret guardians in the Miracle Ridge!

"The Sect Hierarch is truly wise to have all the secret guardians of the Miracle Ridge take action together. Otherwise, just with me and Her Highness, the Saintess, it would have been quite difficult to take the Divine Bone today," Zhao Longtu said with a laugh.

Hua Yuxian walked into the Melting Cave and, looking excitedly at the segment of the Divine Bone, said, "The Sacred Religion has schemed for twenty years for it, and finally, it’s in our hands today."

"Let’s go, take the Divine Bone and leave the Miracle Ridge immediately!"

"Meng Po will meet us outside the Miracle Ridge!"

Hua Yuxian raised her hand and took the Divine Bone, storing it into her Storage Bag.

Just then, five Shadows of people arrived above the sky where the Divine Bone was, and looking down at the corpses of the Spirit Puppets, their Eyes invariably tightened sharply. "Their target is actually the Divine Bone!"

"These bastards!"
