Chapter 444 - 443: Breaking through the Barriers One After Another

Chapter 444: Chapter 443: Breaking through the Barriers One After Another

Lin Bai sheathed his Qingge Sword and quickly ascended to the fourth floor.

Waiting for him on the fourth floor, the 17th Elder had been waiting for quite some time. Seeing Lin Bai, he didn’t waste any time and directly stated, "Come, Lin Bai, today, either your Sword Alliance will fall, or my Divine Alliance will fall."

Lin Bai sneered, spread out his Feng Lei Divine Wings and turned into a lightning bolt streaking directly towards the 17th Elder’s face.

"Mad Thunder Sword Skill! Thunder Shock!"

Seeing Lin Bai attacking, the 17th Elder immediately used a powerful sword skill to counterattack.

"Silver War Body!"

The moment Lin Bai attacked, his speed did not decrease. He didn’t dodge or avoid and simply let this sword hit him.

The powerful stroke of the 17th Elder landed on Lin Bai’s body but didn’t leave a scratch.

"What!"

The 17th Elder was shocked.

His eyes bulged, they oozed disbelief from deep within his soul.

How could his powerful stroke fail to break through Lin Bai’s defense?

The 17th Elder now intensely doubted his cultivation.

He was in the state of Great Perfection of the Heaven Martial Realm, so how could he not break the defense of a warrior in the Heaven Martial Realm Seventh Layer?

"Humph!"

Lin Bai withstood this stroke, blasted a punch onto the 17th Elder’s chest.

Bang!

All the 17th Elder’s defenses were shattered by Lin Bai’s punch, it sent the 17th Elder’s body flying, crashing into the wall, spitting blood.

Such tremendous force almost shattered all the bones in the 17th Elder’s body.

"I, I surrender."

The face of the 17th Elder was as white as a sheet, he said to Lin Bai in a terrified tone.

Lin Bai promptly stopped, gave the 17th Elder a cold glance, and said, "You should thank the Second Elder; he doesn’t allow me to kill, otherwise, you would certainly die today."

Hearing Lin Bai’s words, the 17th Elder broke into cold sweat, shivering all over.

Only after watching Lin Bai leave the fourth floor, did the 17th Elder finally breathe a sigh of relief, feeling the joy of having a narrow escape.

The fourth floor passed.

Su Cang roared, "This is impossible, 17th Elder, how could you possibly be defeated by Lin Bai’s punch!"

The Grand Elder bellowed, "17th Elder, did you deliberately hold back! Hmph, doing this, are you worthy of the nurturing that the Divine Alliance has given you?"

Walking to the window of the Martial God Tower, the 17th Elder saw all the warriors of the Lingjian Sect protecting the Martial God Tower and confronting the Divine Alliance.

He also saw the mocking laughter on the face of each Divine Alliance Warrior sneering at him.

The 17th Elder sighed deeply and exclaimed, "God, what am I doing!"

"I was also a genius of the Lingjian Sect."

"The Lingjian Sect is also my home."

"Am I pushing it to destruction?"

"What on earth am I doing!"

The 17th Elder cried out in anguish.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong."

The 17th Elder cried tears of regret.

After a while, the 17th Elder said with determination, "I, the 17th Elder of the Lingjian Sect Elder Pavilion, officially announce that I am leaving the Divine Alliance!"

"From now on, I, the 17th Elder, will devote my life to the Lingjian Sect, to atone for my sin today!"

"Second Elder, I was wrong, I will now go to the back mountain to repent for ten years. If the Lingjian Sect faces a great enemy, please notify me, I will hold a sharp sword and fight for the Lingjian Sect!"

The 17th Elder saluted the Second Elder with a fist, leapt off the Martial God Tower. Not even a glance at Su Cang, he rushed straight to the back mountain of the Lingjian Sect.

Watching this figure that seemed to have aged by ten years, many people recalled.

"Yes, the 17th Elder, he was once an extraordinary talent of the Lingjian Sect."

"He just took a wrong path."

"To be able to find his way back, he can be considered a genius of our Spirit Sword Sect!"

All the warriors of the Spirit Sword Sect looked at the silhouette of the 17th Elder, and respectfully bowed, "We bid farewell to the 17th Elder!"

The 17th Elder left, gaining the approval and respect of all the warriors of the Spirit Sword Sect.

The Second Elder looked at the 17th Elder and smiled faintly, "This is the genius bearing of the past who was fearless of heaven and earth."

"Zhao Shang! Long time no see."

The Second Elder looked at the silhouette of the 17th Elder and smiled faintly.

Zhao Shang, this was the 17th Elder’s name.

Since he became an elder and was ranked seventeenth, the Spirit Sword Sect had always addressed him as 17th Elder. Aside from warriors from his own generation like the Second Elder, few people knew his real name.

Long time no see - When the Second Elder uttered these four words, it was as if he was seeing an old friend from a long time ago.

After the 17th Elder joined the Divine Alliance, he kept in little contact with the Second Elder.

However, before that, the Second Elder and the 17th Elder were actually close friends. They compared swords together, discussed Dao, and tread the world together...

Inside the fifth floor.

Lin Bai defeated the 16th Elder with a punch.

"I lost. Kill me."

The 16th Elder lay on the ground, covered in blood, and looked at Lin Bai with dull eyes.

Lin Bai silently looked at the 16th Elder, then walked straight to the stone wall, took the pass token, and headed towards the sixth floor.

At the entrance of the stairs to the sixth floor, Lin Bai said, "The Divine Alliance’s stealthy actions betray the world and scare people away. If you continue to help the Divine Alliance, you would be pushing the Spirit Sword Sect to destruction by your own hands!"

"Consider yourself warned!"

Lin Bai gave a look at the 16th Elder and ascended to the sixth floor.

Hearing what Lin Bai said, the 16th Elder leaned against the wall and sat down, a painful expression on his face. Soon after, he laughed out loud, "Hahaha! Hahaha!"

As he laughed.

Two lines of bloody tears flowed from the corners of the 16th Elder’s eyes.

"Spirit Sword Sect!"

"Spirit Sword Sect!"

"My Spirit Sword Sect!"

The 16th Elder roared madly. His utterance of these three words was brimming with extreme affection and reluctance.

Sixth floor, passed!

Seventh floor, passed!

Eighth floor, passed!

Lin Bai’s power broke through the Martial God Tower, breaking through eight floors and reaching the ninth floor.

The warriors of the Divine Alliance who saw Lin Bai’s unstoppable breakthrough to the eighth door were all exceedingly surprised.

"How is this possible, how could the Thirteenth Elder, Fourteenth Elder, Twelfth Elder lose so easily to Lin Bai."

"Unbelievable, no, could the Divine Alliance really be overthrown by this man?"

"What manipulation, what stealthy moves, you trash don’t know anything, this is called strength."

"With strength, of course you can do as you wish!"

"In this world, is there justice? There is only the strong and the weak."

A group of warriors from the Divine Alliance started cursing and shouting.

These warriors of the Divine Alliance were completely brainwashed and devoted to the Divine Alliance.

"Even if Lin Bai is powerful, the 11th Elder on the ninth floor is a master in the initial stage of Half-step Divine Pill Realm. Lin Bai must fail."

"Yes, yes, exactly! The 11th Elder is far from what Lin Bai can challenge!"

"I bet the 11th Elder could kill Lin Bai with just one finger."

"Why even bother with a finger? The 11th Elder could kill Lin Bai with just a fart."

A group of Divine Alliance warriors were all looking forward to the 11th Elder on the ninth floor.

As for the Second Elder, Ji Bei, and Ji Bai, they were all nervously watching the ninth floor. They all knew that the 11th Elder was not easy to deal with.
