Chapter 1249: Chapter 1247: Hong Su! Requiem!

The White Snake bit into Lin Bai’s shoulder, and the excruciating pain that pierced his heart made him scream out in agony!

Hearing Lin Bai’s scream, all the warriors in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains felt tingling on their scalps and shuddered all over.

If even Lin Bai couldn’t resist the White Snake at this moment, then if it were them, they would probably have long since met a violent death.

Lin Bai grabbed the White Snake’s head and pulled its fangs out of his flesh, then threw it fiercely onto the ground, accompanied by a wail from the snake!

Lin Bai’s injuries were getting worse, and even standing became difficult as he swayed unsteadily.

Hong Su, atop a Mountain Top, spotted Lin Bai showing signs of falling and immediately said, "Lin Bai, stop fighting, run away."

Lin Bai’s eyelids drooped, his eyes listless as he said, "Run? Where can I even run to?"

"Can I escape?"

"Can Ye Suxin escape?"

"No!"

"I can’t retreat!"

"At least not now!"

Lin Bai firmly said, "At least not until they are safely out of Lingdong. Only then can I go!"

"If I leave now, the White Snake’s next targets will definitely be them!"

At that moment, Lin Bai thought of Ye Suxin, thought of Bai Xiaoxiao, thought of Jian Ruohan.

He thought of Lin Yue, Feng Yunwei, Hua Yuxian!

He thought of Dugu Yun, Tang Bufan, Kang Yiyang, Kang Shiyun!

He thought of the War God Palace, thought of Zhao Tiedan!

Whether it’s for relatives, friends, the Lingdong Region, or all living beings Under Heaven, Lin Bai now refused to step back!

Once the Ice Jade Beast is released, the entire Lingdong and Miracle Ridge will turn to ruins!

With its ice fog, its toxicity, no one in Miracle Ridge or Lingdong can withstand it!

Hong Su looked at Lin Bai, and a hint of pity flashed in her eyes.

Now the look she gave Lin Bai had changed.

It wasn’t filled with ruthless contempt anymore.

Instead, she now felt that Lin Bai was a very compassionate person with his own principles and boundaries.

Once he committed to something, he wouldn’t back down!

Then, Hong Su took out an ancient zither from her Storage Bag.

This ancient zither was exceptionally exquisite.

Hong Su said with a light chuckle, "Alright then, I’ll lend you a helping hand."

Lin Bai looked at Hong Su and said indifferently, "With your Cultivation, being here is nothing but a desperate struggle. Don’t waste time, just run for your life."

Hong Su shook her head gently, her gaze filled with a hint of compassion.

She sat cross-legged on the Mountain Top, placed the ancient zither on her knees, and her delicate, fair fingers began to slowly pluck its strings.

One after another, beautiful notes spread throughout the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

A wonderfully beautiful melody echoed in the hearts and ears of all warriors within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

As the melody reached them, the brutal and malevolent White Snake, which kept flashing cold light at Lin Bai, gradually diminished the bloodlust in its eyes, looking at Hong Su with a hint of strangeness!

Lin Bai felt the ferocious aura of the White Snake slowly decreasing!

But after a while,

The White Snake seemed to sense something strange in the melody and quickly snapped out of it, roaring furiously at Hong Su. Opening its mouth, a puff of ice fog rushed towards Hong Su!

Hong Su’s complexion turned deathly pale in an instant!

At that moment, Lin Bai came back to his senses and hurriedly ran to the Mountain Top in front of Hong Su, blocking the puff of ice fog!

"Your music, it seems to affect it?"

Lin Bai looked at Hong Su in disbelief and said.

Hong Su’s complexion was calm as she said, "With its current power, I cannot make it settle down, and moreover, this isn’t the place to make it calm down."

"Lin Bai, lead it to the Poison Abyss."

"I can put him into hibernation again,"

Hong Su said to Lin Bai.

"Good!" Lin Bai felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Hong Su, cradling the ancient zither, leapt up and landed on Lin Bai’s shoulder.

"Hold tight."

Lin Bai roared and strode forward, charging towards the White Snake!

The White Snake let out an angry roar, seeing both Lin Bai and Hong Su, the two people it loathed to the bone, standing together, and it too charged furiously towards Lin Bai!

Lin Bai’s face was ruthless as he grappled with the White Snake!

Suddenly, he seized the White Snake and sprinted towards the Poison Abyss!

The White Snake kept roaring in rage, not wanting to return to the Poison Abyss, not wanting to sleep; it sought to break free from Lin Bai’s restraint!

But Lin Bai caught the White Snake, his feet moving swiftly toward the Poison Abyss!

Lin Bai ignored the attacks raining down on him, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain.

Finally, he arrived at the edge of the Poison Abyss!

Without any hesitation, Lin Bai leaped down.

With the White Snake in tow, he plunged into the depths of the Poison Abyss!

Lin Bai’s body kept falling.

After what felt like half a moment, he finally landed at the bottom of the Poison Abyss!

"Crack! Crack!"

The giant warrior Lin Bai, upon reaching the bottom of the Poison Abyss, crushed the accumulated white bones beneath his feet.

These bones belonged to warriors of yesteryear who had sought treasures in the Poison Abyss but had been poisoned by the White Snake’s icy mist.

Boom—

As soon as he landed at the bottom of the Poison Abyss, the White Snake writhed free from Lin Bai’s grasp. Its serpentine pupils, glinting with a cold, bloodthirsty light in the dark depth of the abyss, furiously glared at Lin Bai!

Hong Su, upon reaching the Poison Abyss, immediately began to play the strings again!

Melodious notes spread out, resonating up from the depths of the Poison Abyss and permeating throughout the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains!

The music notes sounded for three days and three nights before slowly fading away.

Outside the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains!

Dugu Yun, hearing this melody, said indifferently, "Is this... the Soul Calming Melody?"

Dugu Yun turned his gaze towards the Dean of the Heavenly Sound Court!

"Heh heh, it seems our Miracle Ridge has many secrets!"

"Heavenly Sound Court, you actually sheltered people from the Seventeen Musicians?"

"Are you not afraid of the Central Holy Nation’s wrath?"

Dugu Yun stared at the Dean of the Heavenly Sound Court, roaring angrily.

The Dean of the Heavenly Sound Court let out a wry smile, shook his head, and said nothing.

Ye Wuhuan said, "Dugu Yun, now is not the time for nitpicking. The present issue is whether the Soul Calming Melody can lull the White Snake to sleep. If not, we must prepare to evacuate Miracle Ridge."

Dugu Yun’s eyes narrowed, revealing a glimpse of fear as he said, "Ye Wuhuan, you knew about this too? And you still dare... Do you truly wish to make an enemy of the Central Holy Nation?"

Ye Wuhuan’s eyes flickered, and he replied coldly, "This is the Territory of all nations. Miracle Ridge is but an insignificant location on the Barbaric Ancient Continent. How could the Central Holy Nation possibly take notice of this place?"

Dugu Yun said coldly, "It seems that once this matter is resolved, I too should leave Miracle Ridge, lest I attract trouble."

"Don’t worry, Ye Wuhuan."

"Now that the Soul Calming Melody has emerged, pacifying the White Snake will be entirely manageable!"

"It is best to forbid this news from spreading. Otherwise, if the Central Holy Nation learns that the Miracle Ridge harbors remnants of the Seventeen Musicians, not just Miracle Ridge, but the entire Territory of all nations could be obliterated!"

"You will never understand the strength of the Central Holy Nation!"

Dugu Yun said icily.

Every mention of the Central Holy Nation brought a look of dread to Dugu Yun’s face.
