Chapter 1434: Chapter 1431: Reincarnation Twelve Messengers!

Lin Bai watched as Xing Hai left, standing dazedly in the room.

"Reincarnation Arena..." Lin Bai murmured to himself, frantically gathering all the information about the Reincarnation Arena in his mind.

As Xing Hai had said, the Reincarnation Arena was established two hundred years ago, shortly after the founding of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom. It was specifically designed to execute criminals and the remnants of the Hanhai Dynasty. However, as the criminals and remnants dwindled, the Eight Great Monster Clans began sending powerful fighters to the Arena to battle one another.

Outside the Reincarnation Arena, there were various gambling houses set up, and anyone who wanted to operate a gambling house in the Arena needed to share profits with the Eight Great Monster Clans, thus each year the clans would receive a substantial income from Spiritual Stones.

Take the White Snake Clan for example, the White Snake Clan’s annual income from Spiritual Stones, about one-third, came from the profit shares of the gambling houses in the Reincarnation Arena. The other Seven Great Monster Clans were the same.

Therefore, the Eight Great Monster Clans made great efforts to recruit strong fighters and send them to the Reincarnation Arena, aiming to attract the rich young nobles and wealthy heirs with the peak battles!

"Is it Dongfang Bai?"

While Lin Bai was pondering the information about the Reincarnation Arena in his room, a surprised voice came from the neighboring room.

Lin Bai approached the wall and asked, "Who is it?"

"It really is you! Dongfang Bai, I’m Xiang Yun!" cried the voice from the neighboring room.

At that moment, a young man with a weathered face and gloomy eyes stepped out from the next room and entered Lin Bai’s room.

"Is it okay to move around here freely?" Lin Bai, seeing Xiang Yun coming over, exclaimed in surprise.

Xiang Yun chuckled, "As long as you don’t want to leave, everyone can move around freely—but no private fights!"

Xiang Yun!

Lin Bai then remembered that among the disciples who had come along, Xiang Yun was a Red-robed Disciple with extremely high Cultivation and strong strength. He also possessed the power of Perfect Yin Saint Realm, only slightly less than Zhao Qing!

"Dongfang Bai, how did you also end up here?" Xiang Yun exclaimed.

"The White Snake Clan sent me here," Lin Bai said with a bitter smile.

"Ah." Hearing this, Xiang Yun sighed helplessly.

Lin Bai asked, "Senior Brother Xiang Yun, how many of our disciples are left in the Reincarnation Arena?"

"None, it’s just me left," Xiang Yun replied dispiritedly.

"Gone? I remember there were close to a thousand disciples sent to the Reincarnation Arena—how can it be just you left?" Lin Bai asked in surprise.

"The others, they all died," Xiang Yun said blandly, "I was lucky to win three matches in the Reincarnation Arena, which is how I survived! The other disciples, either they were killed by others, or they couldn’t bear this place and committed suicide."

"Oh, right, Senior Brother Zhao Qing escaped."

"I wonder if Senior Brother Zhao Qing managed to get out,"

Xiang Yun said flatly.

Lin Bai, recalling the scene he had just witnessed, said softly, "No, he was killed by a demon named Xing Hu!"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yun seemed unsurprised; rather, he sneered, "Huh, I knew this would be the outcome; I advised him, but he wouldn’t listen!"

"Escaping from this place is easier said than done."

Xiang Yun shook his head.

Lin Bai asked, "Senior Brother Xiang Yun, you seem to know a bit about this place?"

Xiang Yun replied, "I’ve only learned a few things from a few experts who have been here for decades."

Lin Bai eagerly asked, "Can you tell me?"

Xiang Yun smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing secretive about it."

"This place is the Reincarnation Arena. Currently, there are over three thousand masters in the Reincarnation Arena. Dongfang Bai, do not underestimate them. Each of these three thousand individuals is a battle-hardened extraordinary strong one!"

"They all are at the Great Perfection of the Yin Saint Realm, each one of them being the strongest within the Yin Saint Realm!"

When Xiang Yun mentioned the people in the Reincarnation Arena, his eyes carried a heavy sense of dread!

Xiang Yun said, "Dongfang Bai, since you have come, even if you have to die in battle here in the Reincarnation Arena, you must never try to escape, because no one here can escape! Even those whose strength surpasses ours a hundred times over have found it impossible to escape!"

Lin Bai curiously asked, "Why?"

Xiang Yun said, "Because the guards of this place consist of a group of twelve, known as the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys!"

"The Twelve Reincarnation Envoys, although all at the Great Perfection of the Yin Saint Realm, possess cultivation that is far more powerful than any reincarnator here!"

"Without any exaggeration, even if hundreds of reincarnators here were to rush up and try to kill one of them, they would be instantly counter-killed!"

"Dongfang Bai, do not question the strength of the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys. I have been here for more than four months and have seen countless stronger ones than you and I die at their hands!"

"The Xing Hu you mentioned earlier is one of the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys!"

"And there are eleven more strong ones like Xing Hu!"

When Xiang Yun spoke of the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys, a deep dread filled his eyes, and he even started to shiver.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai was shaken and exclaimed, "What! They all have the cultivation of Great Perfection of the Yin Saint Realm? I thought Xing Hu was a Yangshen..."

Xiang Yun gave a wry smile and said, "So, you thought Xing Hu was a master of the Yangshen Realm?"

Lin Bai slightly nodded. Xing Hu had effortlessly captured Zhao Qing like catching a chick and then casually killed him.

Lin Bai could not believe that Zhao Qing had no power to fight back!

Who was Zhao Qing? A Purple Robe Disciple of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, one of the Twelve Sword Guards trained by Yejian Jun. His strength was such that among those in the Yin Saint Realm across the Lingnan Continent, he could rank in the top ten thousand seats!

If Xing Hu were not a master of the Yangshen Realm, how could Zhao Qing be powerless in his hands?

But now, hearing from Xiang Yun, it turned out that Xing Hu was merely at the Great Perfection of the Yangshen Realm!

This surprised Lin Bai.

Within the same state, Zhao Qing was beaten so helplessly by Xing Hu and was even easily slain!

How strong, then, was Xing Hu!

Xiang Yun said, "When I first saw the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys, I also thought they must all be of the Yangshen Realm cultivation, but only later did I learn that they were actually all at the Great Perfection of the Yin Saint Realm!"

Lin Bai’s expression grew stern.

Xiang Yun said, "Dongfang Bai, never think about running away. Otherwise, once they catch you, they will not give you any chance to argue your case and will kill you on the spot, regardless of what identity you hold."

Lin Bai clasped his hands and responded, "Thank you, Senior Brother Xiang Yun, for the warning. Your junior brother shall bear it in mind."

Xiang Yun glanced at Lin Bai’s cultivation, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes as he said, "Junior Brother Dongfang, being here, surviving one day is like gaining another day!"

"My room is right next to yours. If you have any questions or... if there’s anything you want to entrust, feel free to come to me!"

Having said this, Xiang Yun returned to his own room.
