Chapter 1305: Chapter 1303: God, Devil, Demon, Immortal, Ghost! The Legend of the Five Swords! (5 Updates)

Lin Bai had just dragged Gu Qingyun out of the Melting Cave when the Sword Marks he had left on the cave suddenly exploded. The entire Melting Cave began to collapse, burying the Eight-legged Blade Beast King that was already split in two!

Before leaving, Lin Bai silently devoured all the Demon Blood of the Eight-legged Blade Beast King!

"This, this, this!"

Shui Han could hardly believe the scene unfolding in the cave!

That sword strike had been incredibly swift, virtually Shadowless, sweeping across the Melting Cave and splitting the blades and body of the Eight-legged Blade Beast King into halves, and had even cleaved the cave itself in two!

It was as if, at that moment, the only thing existing in the world was the flash of that sword, nothing else.

"Is this the Gale Realm?" Shui Han watched Lin Bai’s retreating figure with dread, saying, "No, that’s definitely not the Gale Realm. At least his Realm of Comprehension is much more powerful than Hu Hu’s and Wan Bai’s."

Gu Qingyun recognized the sword strike Lin Bai had used, staring at Lin Bai dumbfounded, "That sword just now, was it... ’Broken Night’?"

"Yes," Lin Bai said with a light laugh.

Gu Qingyun was stunned!

The power of the fifth maneuver of the "Ancient Sword Skill" demonstrated by Lin Bai was at least three times greater than Gu Qingyun’s own!

"Is this what you called the four key elements of martial arts? Fast, Stable, Accurate, Ruthless?"

"This is Fast and Accurate?"

Gu Qingyun muttered to herself.

Lin Bai nodded with a smile.

Gu Qingyun’s heart fluttered, and it was at this moment she realized just how much Lin Bai’s Sword Art cultivation surpassed her own. He didn’t just surpass her; he was far beyond Shui Han as well!

A single sword strike had killed an Eight-legged Blade Beast King at the Great Perfection of the Flying Sky Realm!

If this news were to spread, Lin Bai’s name would surely be listed among the top ten young sword cultivators of the Feiyun Dynasty!

"Ah ah ah—"

"Run, quickly!"

As Lin Bai was about to lead Gu Qingyun out of the den, he was surprised to see the Warriors who had fled ahead now running back in panic!

And they looked to be in quite a sorry state!

"What’s wrong?" Shui Han grabbed a Warrior and asked.

The Warrior spoke with a face full of terror, "Brother Shui Han, Brother Shui Han, save us, please. Another Eight-legged Blade Beast King has appeared outside, a presence at the Great Perfection of the Flying Sky Realm!"

"We are not a match for them!"

"Brother Shui Han, we followed you here, you must save us!"

Hearing this, Shui Han’s face turned grim.

Another Eight-legged Blade Beast at the Great Perfection of the Flying Sky Realm outside?

Gu Qingyun exclaimed in alarm, "What’s going on?"

Lin Bai said, "It’s simple, isn’t it? A mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless one is male and the other female. We killed someone’s wife, and now the husband has come back for revenge."

Hearing Lin Bai’s words, Shui Han’s expression grew ugly, and he said, "Gather all the Warriors who have entered the dens. Together, our combined strength will be greater."

"Don’t worry. Since I led you here, I will do my best to ensure we all leave!"

Shui Han shouted at the Warrior.

The Warrior replied with a relieved excitement, "Good, good! I’ll go notify them right away!"

Lin Bai’s eyes gleamed as he tugged Gu Qingyun and headed for a dark passageway nearby.

Shui Han called out, "Dongfang Bai, where are you going?"

Lin Bai replied, "To find Hu Hu and the others. Do you expect us to stay here and wait for that Great Perfection Flying Sky Realm Demon Beast to come kill us?"

"I’m telling you, if a Great Perfection Flying Sky Realm Demon Beast comes after us, I won’t be able to stop it!"

"Our best plan now is to find Hu Hu, Wan Bai, Yan Sen, and Lu Heng. If we join forces, we might just be able to fight our way out of this den!"

"Otherwise, we face certain death."

Lin Bai grabbed Gujian Yun and, without paying any attention to Shui Han, directly entered another passageway within the darkness.

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s words, Shui Han thought they made sense and said, "Have all the warriors of Sky Demon Ridge follow us!"

Immediately, Shui Han took the lead and followed Lin Bai!

Gujian Yun, being dragged along by Lin Bai, asked, "Dongfang Bai, will we die?"

Lin Bai laughed, "Are you afraid of death?"

Gujian Yun had a gloomy expression on her small face.

Lin Bai immediately chuckled. This little girl had been spoiled since childhood, growing up under Gu Qingyun’s excessive love. How could she have ever faced life-and-death challenges?

Unlike Lin Bai, who, from the moment his Martial Soul was awakened, had been tumbling through life-and-death situations and living life on the edge of a knife, licking blood for survival.

Lin Bai had long gotten used to these life-and-death ordeals.

"Don’t worry, I will safely protect you and get you out of here."

"The only reason I’m staying here is to find out what exactly Hu Hu and the others are up to!"

"With such a grand display of force to use us as a bait to tie down the powerful Eight-Legged Blade Beast, what are they doing instead?"

"I’m very curious."

Lin Bai said with a faint smile.

"I’m afraid I might have guessed a little." Shui Han caught up at this point and spoke coldly.

Lin Bai looked at Shui Han curiously.

Gujian Yun asked, "Brother Shui Han, what do you know?"

With a solemn face, Shui Han said, "According to legend, the reason why Sky Demon Ridge is called so is because a sword is hidden here!"

Upon hearing Shui Han say this, Gujian Yun immediately responded in shock, "Impossible! Impossible! That’s just a legend. The Demonic Sword definitely isn’t here. Otherwise, why has no one found it over so many years?"

"Brother Shui Han, are you saying that the Demonic Sword is hidden within the nest of the Eight-Legged Blade Beast?"

Gujian Yun shook her head repeatedly, her face filled with terror.

Lin Bai wondered, "What are you talking about? Can someone explain to me what this all means?"

Gujian Yun looked at Dongfang Bai and said, "Brother Shui Han is talking about... the Demonic Sword Purple Hui!"

"Demonic Sword Purple Hui?"

Lin Bai looked puzzled at Shui Han.

Shui Han said, "Brother Dongfang, I’m afraid you’re probably not a martial artist from the Territories of Lingnan."

Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai neither confirmed nor denied but smiled, "What makes you say that?"

Shui Han chuckled, "If Brother Dongfang were a warrior from the Territories of all nations in Lingnan, how could you possibly not have heard of the legend of the ’Five Swords of Gods, Demons, Monsters, Immortals, and Ghosts’?"

Lin Bai was taken aback; indeed, he had never heard of it.

Gujian Yun eagerly explained, "In the Lingnan Continent of the Territories of all nations, there are legends of five peerless famous swords. According to the legends, each warrior who obtains these famous swords can become a hegemon of the Territories, or even make a famous name for themselves in the East Continent!"

"The former owners of these five swords all made great names for themselves across the Territories!"

"These five swords, whether in terms of material selection, forging, craftsmanship, or power, are regarded as unparalleled divine soldier weapons within the Territories!"

"On today’s land of Lingnan!"

"Among the Five Swords of God, Devil, Demon, Immortal, Ghost, the Divine Sword is in the hands of the Azure Dragon Empire, as one of their national treasures!"

"The Immortal Sword is with the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, enshrined above the peak of the Sword Storing Tower, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon day and night!"

"As for the Demonic Sword, Ghost Sword, and Demon Sword, their whereabouts remain unknown to this day!"

"Right now, the sword cultivators on the Lingnan Continent, strong ones at that, are madly searching for the traces of the Demonic Sword, Ghost Sword, and Demon Sword!"

Gujian Yun’s little face showed a trace of solemnity. If the Demonic Sword truly lay within Sky Demon Ridge, then whoever obtained this sword would undoubtedly have a place on the Territories!

"Demonic Sword Purple Hui, I am now interested." Lin Bai grinned, "Let’s go and see what sort of scheme Hu Hu and the others are playing!"

Lin Bai smiled slightly, his smile laced with a hint of bloodthirstiness.
