Chapter 1338: Chapter 1336: Heaven-reaching Sword Sect! Gui Jing!

In the torrential rain, Second Grandpa Hu was severely injured by two of Lin Bai’s swords and began to flee in a bloody, sorry state!

Second Grandpa Hu looked up in terror at the raindrops falling from the sky, feeling that within those raindrops there was a sharpness in the Sword Intention, unmatched by any other. Each drop that fell could easily pierce through his body!

"What realm of comprehension is this? How could it be so powerful?"

Second Grandpa Hu’s eyes changed, and he snorted coldly from deep within. A Sword Aura enveloped with the thick might of the Earth Realm coalesced into a huge shield of light around him, warding off all of the torrential rain!

Then, at that moment, a sword glow of extreme brightness, almost too fast to see, pierced through the sky, aiming straight for Second Grandpa Hu’s eyes!

"Broken Night!"

Within the Aurora Realm, the strongest sword, the terrifying strike of dawn’s Broken Night!

Second Grandpa Hu’s face turned pale at a rapid pace. He had to fight against the Stormy Ambience while also dividing his attention to contend with Lin Bai’s Aurora Realm!

Under the stranglehold of these two realms, Second Grandpa Hu felt extremely strained!

"Two realms of comprehension?" Second Grandpa Hu looked at Lin Bai in fear, his pupils filled with shock: "And both are unique realms, no wonder you were recognized by the Demonic Sword!"

"Dongfang Bai, your talent in the Sword Art must be one of the few in Lingnan!"

"But you think you can defeat this old man today just by relying on these two unique realms? That’s simply a foolish dream."

"I am a Yin Saint Expert!"

Second Grandpa Hu roared in anger, stepped forward, and the Earth Realm’s earth-shaking might exploded out. The terrifying force caused countless raindrops to burst, shaking heaven and earth, and causing ghosts and spirits to wail mournfully.

"Get lost!"

Second Grandpa Hu bellowed, and with a single sword slash, he tore through the void!

One sword soared into the Cloud Sky, shattering the heavy rain!

The Stormy Ambience was shattered by Second Grandpa Hu with one sword!

At the same time, Second Grandpa Hu’s eyes flickered with a cold light, striking towards the edge of Lin Bai’s sword.

As Lin Bai’s sword met with Second Grandpa Hu’s, Lin Bai immediately felt an overwhelming force. It struck Lin Bai’s sword head-on, and the powerful force sent him flying backward!

Spurt—

Blood spewed from Lin Bai’s mouth in succession.

Seeing Lin Bai grievously wounded and sent flying backward, Second Grandpa Hu’s expression turned vicious as he struck with another sword, uttering softly two words: "Heaven Splitter!"

An extremely domineering sword, it possessed the mighty power to split heaven and earth!

This sword struck down fiercely, tearing through the sky and shattering mountains and rivers!

Lin Bai looked up to see if this sword was not the same one Second Grandpa Hu had used that day on the Barren Mountain—the astonishing sword that shook the heavens?

"Blood Connects to the Sky!"

Beneath Second Grandpa Hu’s earth-shaking sword, Lin Bai clenched his teeth and roared in anger!

The fourth move of the Nameless Sword Skill, Netherworld Ghost Rain Blood Connects to the Sky, thunderously appeared.

In mid-air, a swath of blood-red sword glow spread out, bursting forth in front of Lin Bai!

Whoosh—

Two streaks of hurried light collided in mid-air!

Lin Bai, holding the Demonic Sword, clashed fiercely with Second Grandpa Hu.

Centered around the two of them, a horrifying wave of force spread out, shattering all the mountains and trees within a kilometer, and annihilating all the living beings within that range!

Meanwhile, Hu Xian’er quickly retreated.

Yan Sen and Lu Heng were slightly slower and were directly wounded by the sword force!

Bang—

A thunderous, earth-shattering noise resounded!

Second Grandpa Hu staggered back five hundred meters, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes darkening. He stared at Lin Bai with an ugly expression, continuously snorting coldly in his heart: How has this kid’s swordplay become so fierce? The power of this sword is almost comparable to that of Hu Long!

Lin Bai was sent flying a thousand meters, disheveled and in a terrible state. His white robe had been torn to shreds by Second Grandpa Hu’s sword glow, leaving terrifying sword marks on his body, from which blood was now profusely streaming!

Upon clashing swords, although Second Grandpa Hu could not kill Lin Bai, Lin Bai couldn’t kill Second Grandpa Hu either!

"Yin Saint Realm experts really are strong," Lin Bai said, his face pale as he wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised his head to look at Second Grandpa Hu in the distance!

Second Grandpa Hu stood up, his eyes fierce as he struck out with his sword again!

The fierce battle raged on!

Lin Bai was not to be outdone and charged forward, the Demonic Sword in hand!

Just then.

Above the clouds in the sky, a terrifying sword aura swept across the heavens, the unmatched might of the sword split the air between Lin Bai and Second Grandpa Hu!

The sword light reached the heavens and pierced the earth, the sheer terror of its contained power sent shivers down both Lin Bai and Second Grandpa Hu’s spines!

A sword’s chill spread across nineteen provinces!

"Heh heh!"

After the sword light descended, a strange laugh could be heard!

Both Lin Bai and Second Grandpa Hu turned their heads to look, and saw a slovenly old man with messy hair and a lecherous smile appearing out of the void, suddenly between them!

Though the old man looked unkempt, as he stood in midair, the terrifying sword intention that emanated from him seemed almost enough to pierce the very void itself.

Lin Bai and Second Grandpa Hu’s eyes narrowed, both masters of the Sword Art, they immediately recognized the old man’s Sword Art cultivation as having reached a pinnacle level.

"Hu Di of Swordscar City of the Feiyun Dynasty, pays his respects to Senior Gui Jing of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

Second Grandpa Hu recognized the slovenly old man’s identity and hastily bowed.

The slovenly old man looked at Second Grandpa Hu with a smile, "Swordscar City of the Feiyun Dynasty seems to be regressing, relying on advanced cultivation to bully the younger generation on the Sword Path, eh?"

"Come here, I’m free right now, how about I spar with you?"

The slovenly old man said to Second Grandpa Hu with a smile.

Hearing this, Second Grandpa Hu was drenched in cold sweat and hurriedly replied, "I beg Senior to calm your anger, even if this junior had the courage of a lion, I would not dare to battle with Senior Gui Jing!"

"Coward!" The slovenly old man scoffed disdainfully at Second Grandpa Hu.

Hearing this, Second Grandpa Hu’s face was overcome with embarrassment, while he felt angry, he dared not show it.

Because the origin of this slovenly old man was too shocking—let alone how powerful his cultivation was, the title of "Seventh Peak Master of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect" alone was enough to crush countless family powers across Lingnan!

The slovenly old man stared at Second Grandpa Hu and said, "If you don’t dare, then why don’t you get lost? Are you waiting for me to invite you to dinner?"

Second Grandpa Hu was stunned, then quickly nodded, "This junior will take his leave!"

Second Grandpa Hu could see that the slovenly old man’s appearance was to save Lin Bai. With the expert of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect present, Second Grandpa Hu knew he could not kill Lin Bai today, no matter how capable he was!

Second Grandpa Hu, along with Yan Sen, Lu Heng, and Hu Xianer, left.

Hu Xianer looked at Lin Bai with interest, her red lips curling into a slight smile before she turned and left.

Lin Bai watched Second Grandpa Hu being frightened away by the slovenly old man, and he too breathed a sigh of relief. The injuries he had been suppressing erupted, causing Lin Bai to spit out another mouthful of fresh blood, his face turning even paler!

The slovenly old man had noticed Lin Bai’s grave injuries and smiled lightly, "Successor of the Demonic Sword, not bad indeed."

Lin Bai stabilized his injuries and gave a fist and palm salute, "Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!"

The slovenly old man chuckled, "No need for thanks, I just can’t stand people bullying those with lower cultivation because they think they’re better."

"But Dongfang Bai, I must say, knowing how conspicuous the Demonic Sword is, you could stand to be a little more discreet!"

Lin Bai responded with a light laugh, "What’s the use of a good Sharp Sword if it’s always hidden in its sword sheath?"

"If the Demonic Sword is born to draw attention, why should I hide its edge?"

The slovenly old man let out a strange chuckle, "I like your spirit, kid. Remember my name, Gui Jing of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. In Purple Gold City, if any Yin Saint expert bullies you, mention my name—I’ve got your back!"

"Don’t wander aimlessly in the Night Crow Mountain Range anymore, head to Purple Gold City, the apprenticeship recruitment is about to start!"

"Heh heh."

The slovenly old man gave a lewd chuckle and turned to leave. As he departed, his gaze lingered on Lin Bai, finding the young man increasingly interesting.
