Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Shadow Snake Martial Soul

Xuan Feng was sent flying backward, crashing onto the ground, his face turning deathly pale.

"Damn it!"

Xuan Feng climbed up from the ground, looking down at the three bloody holes in his chest. His crimson-stained robes were a ghastly sight.

"Lin Bai, you’ve thoroughly enraged me. Now, I’ll send you to meet Yama!"

Xuan Feng yelled furiously, a surge of dark mist erupted from his body.

Layers of black mist surged from his body, as if being possessed by a demon.

At that moment, within the black mist, a slender demon snake showed itself. Its scarlet eyes filled with boundless bloodlust stared at Lin Bai. Those eyes were like those of a snake fed by the god of death, utterly terrifying.

"It’s Xuan Feng’s Martial Soul, the Shadow Snake!"

"Shadow Snake Martial Souls are natural killers, they move swiftly, like the god of darkness himself!"

Many Warriors recognized Xuan Feng’s Martial Soul and called out in surprise.

Lin Bai’s pupils contracted intensely. He felt a hint of danger from this Martial Soul.

"Martial Soul Secret Skill! Nine Dragons Devouring Heaven!"

Xuan Feng roared in anger.

The demon snake that had been staring at Lin Bai from the black mist suddenly rushed out, transforming into nine long snakes mid-flight and lunged at him.

The nine long snakes radiated a force of annihilation, each like a sharp and omnipresent spear, striking like they intended to shatter the heavens.

"Be careful, Lin Bai, don’t meet this attack head on!"

"Zhao Xu was killed by this move!"

Upon seeing Xuan Feng using his most powerful Martial Soul Secret Skill, Elder Ji Bei cried out in worry.

"Elder Ji Bei, don’t you know it’s only proper to remain silent when watching a match?" Su Cang said coldly, annoyed at Ji Bei’s intervention.

After giving Su Cang a calm look, Ji Bei quietly returned to his place.

"Hmph, and here I thought Lin Bai was something special. It seems he is nothing but a pushover. Xuan Feng can easily kill him." Su Cang looked at Lin Bai contemptuously and sneered. In his eyes, Lin Bai stood no chance against Xuan Feng’s secret skill.

"It’s over. Lin Bai is doomed."

"Xuan Feng’s Martial Soul secret method is just too powerful. Even a Warrior of the Heaven Martial Realm First Layer could be seriously injured if they’re not careful."

"Indeed."

Many people held their breath to see whether this strike could kill Lin Bai.

"Hahaha, Lin Bai, go to hell! You have no chance of resisting under this attack!" Xuan Feng saw his attack fully unleashed, and assured of its power, he was confident it could not fail.

"It’s over..." Many Warriors seemingly already saw Lin Bai dead.

But Lin Bai, watching the nine long snakes empowered by the forces of heaven and earth coming at him, was unfazed. He shook the Sinister Wind Sword sharply and a surge of Sword Intention burst forth to the sky, slicing down harshly.

"Astonishing Wind Sword Skill! The wind blows and the sea quakes!"

The Sword Qi violently slashed down, shattering everything.

A powerful Sword Qi landed, striking the nine approaching long snakes. Lin Bai’s Sword Qi cleanly cut through the snakes in the blink of an eye.

"What?!"

Xuan Feng watched this scene, his eyes almost popping out in disbelief.

His strongest move just got easily shattered by Lin Bai?

Countless experts had fallen before this move of his, its power was great without a doubt.

But to think Lin Bai would just shatter it with one easy slash!

"Your Martial Soul is not worth a strike."

Lin Bai sneered, he lunged forward rapidly, his figure darting like electricity, leaving only afterimages as he charged at Xuan Feng.

"Get back!" Xuan Feng roared, his Martial Soul surged up and the Shadow Snake roared out, opened its bloody mouth wide, revealing its sharp teeth, ready to tear Lin Bai apart.

"Die!"

A glint of something alien flashed in Lin Bai’s eyes, and with a single slashing motion, his Sword Qi immediately severed the Shadow Snake Martial Soul in two.

Splat——

As soon as the Shadow Snake was shattered by Lin Bai’s sword, a flash of sword light darted past Xuan Feng’s face, carving him open and gutting him. The Sword Qi surged into his body, shredding his internal organs into a mushy pulp.

With a crash, Xuan Feng’s eyes widened in disbelief, as he fell straight backward.

From the moment Xuan Feng activated his Martial Soul Secret Skill to his death, the process took a mere three breaths.

Many warriors did not clearly see how Lin Bai killed Xuan Feng, but Xuan Feng was already dead.

With a kick, Lin Bai sent Xuan Feng’s dead body careening over the edge of the cliff.

"I never expected there to be a warrior in the Divine Alliance who mastered hidden weapons. There truly are no weaklings on the Inner Gate Top Hundred List." Lin Bai’s eyes deepened, and he said in a cold voice.

If it weren’t for Lin Bai’s multitude of methods, any other ordinary warrior would not have lasted a single turn against Xuan Feng’s onslaught before being cut down.

However, Xuan Feng’s opponent was Lin Bai, and he wasn’t that lucky.

After killing Xuan Feng, Lin Bai remained standing on No Return Cliff.

He glanced at Su Cang’s face, which had turned a violent shade of ugly.

The successive deaths of two highly ranked warriors from the Inner Gate Top Hundred List dramatically shrank the morale of Divine Alliance to an all-time low!

"Next."

Directly after killing Xuan Feng, Lin Bai unsheathed his sword and called out.

"Damn it!" Upon seeing Xuan Feng being slain by Lin Bai, Su Cang was filled with rage, gnashing his teeth and seething with resentment.

"How can this be possible? Our two high-ranking warriors in the Divine Alliance were successively killed by Lin Bai!"

"Lin Bai has only been inducted into the Inner Gate for three short months! Has he really become so powerful already?"

"No, this isn’t real. Either Xuan Feng or Sun Xiaoquan should have had the upper hand. How could they be so easily killed by Lin Bai!"

"Yeah, it’s not real. It must be a dream. Our Divine Alliance is invincible, invincible!"

Many warriors had a hard time coming to terms with this reality, shaking their heads in mental denial, deep in shock.

Their eyes had lost their focus, a panicked energy radiating from them; they looked as though they’d suddenly lost their faith.

Noticing the wavering morale among the Divine Alliance warriors, Su Cang immediately said: "Lin Bai only won due to his opportunism. It really was nothing major. In the next battle, we will claim a definite victory!"

Hearing Su Cang’s words, many warriors in the Divine Alliance snapped out of it, affirming, "That’s right. Lin Bai was merely opportunistic and lucky. Even the best of luck will have an end!"

"Lin Bai is headed for certain death in the upcoming battle!"

"Divine Alliance is unbeatable! The might of the Divine Alliance reigns supreme!"

The warriors from the Divine Alliance summoned up their fervor and exclaimed in high spirits.

Upon hearing Su Cang’s words, Lin Bai scoffed in derision: "Su Cang, just how much more shameless can you be? When I killed Sun Xiaoquan, you said it was his moment of carelessness. Now that I’ve killed Xuan Feng, you call it opportunism."

"What a shameless worm you are!"

Lin Bai gazed at Su Cang, a look of mockery and disdain spreading across his face.

Whether it was killing Sun Xiaoquan or Xuan Feng, these were displays of Lin Bai’s strength!

It was nothing like what Su Cang described as opportunism, nor a moment of carelessness.

"How dare you speak so disrespectfully to Young Sect Master! I’ll cut you down where you stand!"

After Lin Bai’s scornful mockery, a furious voice rang out from behind Su Cang just as he was readying a harsh rebuttal.

Turning to look, Su Cang gasped out, "Sun Qing!"

"Do not worry, Young Sect Master. I will slay this man!" declared a fiery-eyed Sun Qing.

"Good, Sun Qing. Do it. As long as you can kill Lin Bai, I’ll award you a Heavenly Martial Pill to assist your breakthrough into the Heaven Martial Realm. After that, I’ll provide you copious Cultivation Resources to ensure that you breakthrough to the Heaven Martial Realm Ninth Layer with ease!" said Su Cang, very earnestly.

"Thank you, Young Sect Master!" On hearing the rewards on offer, Sun Qing’s face lit up in anticipation, brimming with battle spirit.

Sun Qing, Ranked 42 on the Inner Gate Top Hundred List!
