Chapter 1661: Chapter 1658: The Avatar... Is about to Perish! (5th Update)

The bald-headed warrior, clad in a black robe and mask, concealed his face so Lin Bai couldn’t discern his features. Yet, every move he made brimmed with the destructive power of world-ending flames.

"Are you an Elder of the Fenxin Sect?" Lin Bai asked coldly.

The bald warrior narrowed his eyes, a trace of killing intent flowing forth as he replied in an icy tone, "Dongfang Bai, you killed the Saint of my sect and so many strong fighters of the Yangshen Realm. Today, you must die without question!"

The bald warrior let out a furious roar, and the flames that churned heaven and earth surged toward Lin Bai with relentless fury. A roaring Fire Dragon materialized, its claws and fangs tearing the skies apart as it rushed forward!

Lin Bai’s expression changed dramatically; the power of this Flame Divine Dragon was far greater than Yang Changdong’s, a terror like no comparison.

The Flame Divine Dragon lashed its tail, releasing tens of thousands of flames that turned the surrounding thousands of miles into a sea of fire!

"Slash!"

From Lin Bai’s storage bag, the Demonic Sword flashed out and came crashing down in a single, resounding strike.

The overwhelming sword light pierced through Cloud Sky and slashed toward the sea of fire. However, an astonishing scene unfolded before him.

Lin Bai’s formidable strike fell upon the fire, yet the sword light didn’t shatter the flames. Instead, the fire engulfed the energy of the sword!

"Sixth Level of the Yangshen Realm!" Lin Bai stared at the old man in utter amazement. The man’s strength surpassed even Lin Bai when he had used his demonized form, leaving Lin Bai with a grave expression.

Biting his teeth, Lin Bai stepped onto his flying sword and immediately charged away in retreat.

Just as he was about to escape on his sword, from the heavens and earth behind him, a shift in the sky emerged, unleashing a terrifyingly colossal fist imprint aimed directly at Lin Bai!

"The Heavenly Reversal Seal!"

Lin Bai screamed in horror.

The imprint was none other than the Saint Seal Sect’s ultimate technique. Yet this version of the Heavenly Reversal Seal, wielded by the opponent, was leagues stronger than when Wei Tianjun or Luo Yutong had used it!

BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!

The Heavenly Reversal Seal collided into Lin Bai’s chest, throwing him backward and forcing blood to spurt from his mouth!

In another direction, a gaunt old man draped in black robes appeared amid the heavens and earth.

Lin Bai, his face pale as he spat blood, looked up at the gaunt old man. As his gaze landed on this figure, his eyes turned crimson red in an instant: "Dong Qian!"

Even if this gaunt old man was cloaked beneath black robes, with only his eyes exposed...

Lin Bai recognized him instantly at his appearance!

This man was the Guardian of the Sect Supreme from Saint Seal Sect—Dong Qian—bearing the unforgivable grudge of killing Lin Bai’s wife and son!

Dong Qian, cloaked in black robes, heard Lin Bai call his name. His expression shifted slightly, but he quickly masked the surprise within his eyes!

"Who else? Come out altogether."

Seeing Dong Qian, Lin Bai’s gaze immediately brimmed with murderous intent. The Slaughter Comprehension combusted around him, forming a blood-red mist that exuded a terrifying aura!

As Lin Bai roared, from within the clouds emerged three more men in black.

Their attire was almost identical—black robes and masked faces, obscuring their features.

One of them carried a cold, gleaming long blade, stepping forward from the clouds. The blade radiated an increasingly frigid aura, and an intense cruelty flickered in his eyes.

"A member of the Heavenly Sword Sect?" Lin Bai glanced at him, then sneered.

Another figure stood emitting a sinister aura, his entire being shrouded in chilling green light. Lin Bai smirked coldly and said, "You must be a strong figure from Luotian Sect."

These individuals all possessed cultivation levels of at least the Fifth Level of the Yangshen Realm, with even the weakest among them standing at that threshold.

This level of cultivation at the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect would be on par with the Sect Protector Supreme or the Master of the First Peak among the seventy-two peaks!

Lin Bai chuckled coldly and turned his gaze toward the final figure.

This man, tall and slender, despite covering his visage, couldn’t hide his strikingly handsome features visible through his eyes.

"Ye Jianjun!"

When Lin Bai saw him, he could not suppress his gasp of surprise.

Lin Bai would never have mistaken the identity of the concealed young man—it was Ye Jianjun!

The figure and appearance of the Six Freaks of Lingnan, Lin Bai could never forget in his lifetime!

"What’s going on here?" Lin Bai said in disbelief, shifting his gaze rapidly before suddenly catching a glimmer of realization in his eyes. In a cold voice, he said, "So, what you left behind at the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect... was merely your avatar!"

"And now, is this your true form?"

Lin Bai fixed his eyes on Ye Jianjun as he posed the question.

"Since you’ve figured it out, I shall conceal myself no longer." The young man removed his mask, revealing Ye Jianjun’s face. "Why did you kill my avatar?"

Lin Bai spoke coldly: "Is this your true self?"

Lin Bai stared intently at Ye Jianjun, noticing that his cultivation level was Fifth Level of the Yangshen Realm, extraordinarily powerful!

Ye Jianjun chuckled darkly: "Today, we will settle the grudge of you killing my avatar!"

As he finished speaking, Ye Jianjun flew swiftly downward from the sky, striking toward Lin Bai with a sword light so immense it seemed to shatter the heavens, aiming directly at Lin Bai!

"Flying Sword! Primordial Unity Sword Array!"

Lin Bai roared, conjuring a sword array with his flying sword to counter Ye Jianjun!

BOOM—BOOM—

In an earth-shaking collision, Ye Jianjun’s sword effortlessly deflected Lin Bai’s flying sword, that radiant blade striking Lin Bai’s chest and forcing him retreat with injuries!

From the other direction, Dong Qian moved simultaneously. His fist formed the Sea-covering Seal and fiercely slammed toward Lin Bai’s spine.

CRACK!

Dong Qian’s ruthless punch fractured Lin Bai’s vertebrae completely!

Lin Bai let out a piercing scream of agony!

"Horizontal and Vertical!"

Lin Bai grit his teeth and retaliated, forcing Dong Qian back.

At this moment, the sinister elder from Luotian Sect laughed coldly, summoning an enormous Giant Palm Imprint to slam down mercilessly on Lin Bai’s head, shattering several bones instantly!

Simultaneously, the bald warrior from Fenxin Sect maneuvered his Flame Divine Dragon to strike Lin Bai once more, sending him flying thousands of miles and crashing into several mountains before coming to a halt!

"True self! Grant me half of the Power of the Giant God!"

Lin Bai stood up from the ground desperately and roared toward the heavens!

Immediately, the Power of the Giant God surged into Lin Bai’s body, rapidly healing his internal injuries.

But just then, the sword cultivator from the Heavenly Sword Sect stepped forward, slashing a blade straight at Lin Bai’s skull.

Lin Bai’s face turned pale with shock as he hastily dodged backward. Though the blade missed his head, it tore his left arm from his body!

"Void Seal!"

Dong Qian bellowed furiously, his palm striking, pinning Lin Bai’s chest.

CRACK—CRACK—

The sound of fracturing bones reverberated, as Lin Bai’s skeletal structure shattered completely, his meridians crushed by the impact!

Lin Bai’s entire body, including his internal organs and essence, was severely weakened. The Power of the Giant God rapidly dissipated from him.

If not for the enhancement from the Giant God’s strength earlier, Dong Qian’s Void Seal would have already ended Lin Bai’s life!

But as things stood, though Lin Bai hadn’t died yet, he was perilously close to death.

Nearly all of Lin Bai’s bones had shattered. Every single meridian was destroyed, and even his Five Elements Divine Pill was riddled with countless cracks!

Lin Bai’s heart itself had splintered apart!

Ye Jianjun and Dong Qian now stood at the Fifth Level of the Yangshen Realm!

Meanwhile, the bald warrior from Fenxin Sect, the sinister elder from Luotian Sect, and the cold sword cultivator from the Heavenly Sword Sect had all reached the Sixth Level of the Yangshen Realm, their cultivation far exceeding Dong Qian and Ye Jianjun in strength!

Such immense power, with the five of them joining forces, could contend against even a Seventh or Eighth Level Yangshen Realm warrior without faltering! Moreover, within their sects, they held high-ranking positions, practiced supreme cultivation techniques, and possessed unparalleled prowess!

...

At that moment, within the Creation Divine Palace, Lin Bai’s true form suddenly opened his eyes, an expression of searing rage flashing through his gaze!

Bai Xiaoxiao rushed into the Creation Divine Palace, noticing Lin Bai’s entire being radiating with destructive fury. Immediately she asked, "Lin Bai, what happened?"

Lin Bai’s true self reacted with alarm in his eyes: "My avatar... is on the brink of destruction!"
