The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1237 - 1235: Snatching the Divine Bone!

Chapter 1237: Chapter 1235: Snatching the Divine Bone!

Eighteen Dharma Protectors simultaneously turned to look at Lin Bai, their eyes filled with astonishment.

"Lin Bai!"

"How did you find this place?"

Wu Xun cried out in terror.

"Dharma Protector Wu Xun, thanks for leading the way."

Lin Bai said with a faint smile.

Wu Xun shook his head and said, "Impossible! Impossible!"

Lin Bai smiled and retorted, "Did you really think you could escape from my clutches?"

"If you managed to escape, it would only mean that I allowed you to do so."

"Without you leading the way, as you said, it would have taken me half a month to find this Great Hall, but now, I’ve attained what I sought effortlessly!"

Lin Bai looked around at the Great Hall, assessing it from top to bottom.

This Great Hall was quite unremarkable.

But behind the eighteen Dharma Protectors, there was a tightly sealed Stone Door, and it was unclear where it led to.

When Lin Bai saw the Stone Door, a trace of curiosity appeared in his eyes.

A place guarded by the Five Poison Sect’s eighteen Dharma Protectors was undoubtedly not an ordinary location.

"What lies beyond this Stone Door?"

Lin Bai asked, curious.

Hearing Lin Bai’s question, Wu Xun did not answer, but just stared coldly at Lin Bai with his eyes.

"Big Brother Wu Xun, what should we do now?"

"How did Lin Bai discover this place?"

"We cannot allow him to leave alive."

The other Protectors immediately whispered amongst themselves.

"The Protectors are right, since Lin Bai has discovered this place, he can no longer be allowed to live," Wu Xun said coldly, "The Five Pinnacle Saint is extremely strong, but if the eighteen of us join forces, we might still be able to put up a fight!"

Wu Xun immediately declared.

Upon hearing this, the other Protectors nodded slightly, summoning their strength secretly, as they watched Lin Bai with predatory eyes.

In the midst of the gathering, a gust of wind arose.

In the wind, there lurked a bone-chilling murderous intent!

Seeing the demeanor of these eighteen individuals, Lin Bai laughed lightly and said, "It seems that you all have no intention of telling me what lies beyond the Stone Door?"

Wu Xun sneered, "Humph, want to know what lies beyond the Stone Door? It depends on whether you have the capability!"

"Lin Bai, your cultivation is indeed strong, and your power is truly terrifying, but aren’t you a bit too arrogant?"

"Alone, I am certainly no match for you."

"But here, all eighteen Dharma Protectors of the Five Poison Sect are present, even if you were a Flying Sky Realm Strong One, we are confident we can skin a layer off you!"

"Brothers, take action!"

Wu Xun glared at Lin Bai, his eyes nearly splitting with rage as he roared.

Following Wu Xun’s command, the other seventeen Protectors took action simultaneously, launching an assault on Lin Bai!

Among these eighteen individuals, three approached Lin Bai’s face in the blink of an eye!

Three immensely terrifying forces attacked Lin Bai’s chest and back!

"These three must have cultivated speed-type martial techniques and Martial Souls."

Lin Bai’s figure flickered immediately as the speed of the Nine Rotations Sword Steps surged!

Booming sounds thundered—

The trio lunged to attack, their mighty force descending, but they could not locate Lin Bai.

"A miss?"

"Where did he go?"

The three cried out in horror.

"Gentlemen, are you looking for me?"

At that moment, a cold voice came through.

The three turned around in fright, only to see a White-robed Man, moving at lightning speed, closing in on them.

In a panic, they hadn’t even had the chance to defend themselves before they saw a bright Sword Shadow flash before their eyes.

Splurt! Splurt! Splurt—

Three sounds of blood splattering rang out!

Lin Bai’s sword swept across the sky, obliterating the three men’s throats!

Three of the Five Poison Sect’s eighteen famed Protectors thus perished by Lin Bai’s sword!

"Lin Bai, your life ends here."

Simultaneously, the remaining fifteen charged ferociously towards Lin Bai.

"Flying Swords!"

"One Sword Becomes Thousands!"

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed coldly as his Flying Swords slashed through the air!

Thousands of Sword Shadows once again filled the sky!

"Not good, get out of the way quickly, we can’t withstand the power of this Sword Shadow," Wu Xun had previously suffered at the hands of Lin Bai’s Flying Swords and immediately cried out in alarm.

After Wu Xun spoke, he immediately dodged and retreated!

At this moment, the other fourteen Dharma Protectors weren’t so lucky!

Under the slaughter of Lin Bai’s Flying Sword Skill, eight Dharma Protectors were directly slashed into pieces.

"What!"

Wu Xun, seeing the corpses of the Dharma Protectors scattered around, narrowed his eyes and became somewhat apprehensive.

"I didn’t expect this Saint to be so powerful," Wu Xun said with some fear in his heart.

By this time, Wu Xun had realized that they were no match for Lin Bai.

Immediately, Wu Xun turned his gaze towards the Stone Door behind him!

"Everyone, hold him off, I’ll go and report to the Sect Hierarch."

Wu Xun shouted urgently, his figure flashed toward the Stone Door.

A strange magic seal was cast, and a thin crevice blasted open in the Stone Door. Wu Xun’s figure quickly squeezed through and disappeared without a trace!

"Wu Xun, you bastard! You lured Lin Bai here, and now you’re the first to run."

"What a loser!"

"Damn it!"

The other surviving Dharma Protectors, watching Wu Xun flee, immediately showed faces filled with anger!

Lin Bai’s eyes flickered as he looked towards the direction where Wu Xun had escaped.

Immediately, the Flying Swords slashed out.

The remaining living Dharma Protectors were directly killed under the swords!

Wu Xun, having entered the Stone Door, glanced back just in time to see Lin Bai killing all the other Dharma Protectors, with those cold eyes turning towards the Stone Door.

Wu Xun secretly congratulated himself on his swift escape, otherwise, he would have ended up just like the other Dharma Protectors, dead under Lin Bai’s sword.

Wu Xun believed he had done nothing wrong.

With eighteen Dharma Protectors together unable to match Lin Bai, now the only chance for survival was to find the Five Poisons Sect Leader and stay by his side!

Wu Xun did not want to die!

He was someone who was extremely afraid of death!

"Is that Stone Door really leading to where the Five Poisons Sect Leader is?"

Lin Bai’s figure flashed, crossing the Great Hall and entering the Stone Door!

...

Within the Five Poison Sect’s intricate Underground Palace.

The Five Poisons Sect Leader entered one of the Great Halls with a grim face.

This Great Hall was extremely huge, with a diameter of about ten thousand meters!

The inside of the hall was vast and empty, with strange and rare runes engraved on the surrounding walls.

In the air inside the Great Hall, runes were also inscribed into the Void.

In the very center of the Great Hall, there was a Jade Platform about half the height of a person.

On this Jade Platform, there was a woman bound up, and it was none other than Tiehai Tang.

Above Tiehai Tang, a Divine Bone floated.

The Five Poisons Sect Leader walked out of the Great Hall, looked towards the Jade Platform and Tiehai Tang, and asked Xuan Bo, "Xuan Bo, has the Magic Circle started?"

In the Great Hall, the Old Man bowed slightly and said, "Sect Hierarch, the Magic Circle has already started, but it’s going to be difficult to get it fully operational in a short time."

The Five Poisons Sect Leader asked, "How much longer will it take?"

Xuan Bo made a preliminary estimate, "About seven more days."

The Five Poisons Sect Leader, hearing this, felt exasperated, and his expression turned very ugly.

Xuan Bo asked, "Sect Hierarch, how are things outside?"

The Five Poisons Sect Leader said coldly, "The warriors from the Miracle Ridge have already broken in."

Xuan Bo was taken aback after hearing this, and said in confusion, "That’s impossible. With Lin Bai resisting outside the Splitting Sky Valley, the Miracle Ridge warriors couldn’t possibly have stormed in so quickly."

The Five Poisons Sect Leader coldly said, "Lin Yue has been rescued by Lin Bai!"

"This..."

Xuan Bo was startled.

The Five Poisons Sect Leader sighed lightly, "I underestimated Lin Bai!"

Xuan Bo’s face turned rather unsightly!

Now that the warriors from the Miracle Ridge had already broken in, it was like a bolt from the blue, adding insult to injury for the Five Poison Sect.

Just then.

A shadow of a person flew across the Great Hall and suddenly charged towards the Divine Bone!

She rapidly stored the Divine Bone into her Storage Bag!

The Five Poisons Sect Leader and Xuan Bo were as if facing a great enemy, their eyes instantly growing cold!

As the shadow landed and turned slightly, it looked towards the Five Poisons Sect Leader.

"Saintess, what are you doing with the Divine Bone? Hand it over quickly, don’t delay Xuan Bo from operating the Magic Circle," the Five Poisons Sect Leader, recognizing the person, immediately said with a cold voice.

Although the Five Poisons Sect Leader had already noticed Hua Yuxian entering the Great Hall, he truly did not expect that Hua Yuxian would suddenly take action and steal the Divine Bone!
