Chapter 492: Chapter 491: The Invitation from Famous Sword Manor

All they saw was a flash of golden light as it ferociously shattered the white-robed woman’s indestructible ice wall.

One sword penetrated fifteen walls!

The flying sword, with its blinding golden light, moved swiftly towards the white-robed woman’s throat like a bolt of lightning.

The woman in the white robe turned pale. At that moment, under the attack of this flying sword, she genuinely felt its frightening speed.

The gold flash appeared almost instantaneously in front of the white-robed woman.

"Get away from me!"

Enraged, she slashed forward, hoping to brush the flying sword aside.

But when her slash came down, the flying sword took a sharp turn and miraculously dodged her attack!

"What?"

Disbelief filled the white-robed woman’s eyes. How could this flying sword evade her sword skill in her sword domain?

At this moment, she acknowledged that the flying sword was not only extremely nimble but also incredibly powerful.

"Martial Soul! Ice Soul Divine Sword!"

This provoked her.

Fury induced an intense chill above her head, which solidified into a divine sword.

As the sword emerged, the frosty atmosphere across heaven and earth rose yet again.

"Slash!"

Upon revealing her Martial Soul, the white-robed woman’s combat prowess surged. Her eyes focused intently on Lin Bai’s flying sword.

Her sword lunged forth with a thunderous slash.

"Break her sword domain for me!"

Lin Bai formed a sword sign and continuously channelled True Qi from within his body onto the flying sword.

With the influx of True Qi, the power of the flying sword increased explosively.

At the same time, gripping his Qingge Sword, Lin Bai charged towards the white-robed woman under the speed of Feng Lei Divine Wings.

The flying sword was in front.

Lin Bai was behind.

"Divine Power! Ice Heaven Snow Cellar!"

Upon seeing Lin Bai’s impending attack, the white-robed woman retaliated reactively with a fierce thrust of her sword.

The two figures were about to clash in midair.

Lin Bai’s flying sword reached first, launching a savage strike on the white-robed woman’s sword.

Subsequently, Lin Bai followed with his own sword attack.

The white-robed woman didn’t yield an inch and directly faced the incoming strike.

Rumble——

A tremendous booming sound that shook the heavens and earth echoed.

Both figures were knocked back simultaneously.

Both retreated over a hundred meters. A trace of fresh blood trickled from the corner of Lin Bai’s mouth while the white-robed woman nearly vomited a mouthful of blood due to the turmoil within her body, but she managed to suppress it.

The sword domain dispersed, the storm stopped, and the snow fell.

The world once again returned to tranquillity.

Lin Bai rose from the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief as he stared at the white-robed woman. His face revealed confusion, his expression as cool as water.

"What does this mean? Is it a tie?"

"It should be a tie. Neither of them seems to want to make another move."

"Unbelievable! The sword skill of the white-robed woman is so fierce, and so is Lin Bai’s!"

Many guests exclaimed in unison.

Su Jiannan angrily stood up from his chair and asked coldly, "Who are you? As far as I know, the Spirit Sword Sect did not invite you."

"You came uninvited and hurt my disciples. You need to give us an explanation for this."

Su Jiannan said somewhat angrily.

"Oh, oh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

At that moment, the black-robed elder stepped forward with a jovial chuckle, offering a fist salute, and said to Su Jiannan, "We have come to congratulate the Spirit Sword Sect on its succession ceremony."

Su Jiannan retorted, "Congratulations? Like this? You call this congratulating"

Lin Bai’s face regained its calm. He stood up and said, "Sect Leader, there’s no need to say any more, it’s just we’re outmatched."

"Miss, I lost." Lin Bai saluted humbly.

The white-robed woman stated coldly, "You didn’t lose. It was a draw."

"Besides, I’ve already reached the Great Perfection of Half-step Divine Pill Realm, while you’re merely at the Heaven Martial Realm Eighth Layer. To be able to display such combat strength, it wouldn’t be right if I won. Let’s call it a draw."

Lin Bai smiled faintly and nodded.

The white-robed woman’s sword skills were exceptional, her cultivation profound. Lin Bai had used almost all his means and still was unable to defeat her in a sword fight.

Yet, Lin Bai knew that if the fight continued without him utilizing the Devouring Sword Spirit, he was almost certain to lose!

The white-robed woman said, "If I’m not mistaken, you’ve just recently acquired this flying sword of yours. Your coordination with it is full of errors."

"If you could coordinate more closely with your flying sword, the outcome of our battle would be uncertain."

Lin Bai responded, "Indeed, I didn’t have it for long. In fact, this was my first time using a flying sword in an actual battle."

The white-robed woman said, "That makes sense. Your flying sword has a lot of potentials, I hope you can make good use of it."

"I hope that the next time I see you, you’ll be much stronger."

The white-robed woman declared.

Lin Bai smiled and said, "I will."

At this point, the white-robed woman gently removed her hood.

A face of unmatched stunning beauty was revealed.

Her beautiful features, exquisite face, and icy eyes emanated an indescribable aura of a pure and sacred fairy.

"Wow, will there be such an extraordinarily beautiful woman Under Heaven?"

"It’s unbelievable. Not only her sword skills are amazing, but she is also incredibly beautiful."

"True, the fairy-like aura emanating from her overall being is truly fascinating."

Many guests gazed at the white-robed woman with mesmerized eyes.

The First Princess was taken aback by the white-robed woman’s appearance.

Although the First Princess considered herself not lacking in either royal temperament or appearance, she felt a sense of shame when looking at the white-robed woman.

"You are Lin Bai?"

Asked the white-robed woman.

After being stunned by the white-robed woman’s appearance, Lin Bai collected himself and nodded in silence.

The white-robed woman casually stated, "I’m Jian Ruohan, from the Famous Sword Manor."

Hiss!

Hearing the white-robed woman self-introduction, the whole audience drew a collective gasp.

"What! A disciple of the Famous Sword Manor!"

"Right, the Sword Discourse Conference is about to begin, Jian Ruohan must be here to invite the experts over for the conference at Famous Sword Manor."

Many people speculated in surprise.

Lin Bai stared blankly at Jian Ruohan and said, "So you’re the talented disciple of Famous Sword Manor, no wonder you’re so strong."

Famous Sword Manor was considered to be a Sacred Land for sword cultivators in the Lingdong 700 States.

Every sword cultivator who emerged from the Famous Sword Manor was an expert capable of standing on their own.

Jian Ruohan took out a golden dagger-like short sword from her storage bag, handed it to Lin Bai, and declared, "On behalf of Famous Sword Manor, I formally invite Lin Bai, a disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, to join us on March 3rd, at the Cloud Sky Summit of Famous Sword Manor where nine thousand sword cultivators from the Lingdong 700 States will gather for a martial arts competition."

The short sword, about ten centimeters long, was entwined with jade slips.

Whoo-

All the guests present couldn’t help but stand up in surprise watching Jian Ruohan.

"Lin Bai has been invited!"

"Lin Bai was actually invited to the Famous Sword Manor."

"Indeed, the warriors invited by the Famous Sword Manor are practically the strongest sword cultivators in the Lingdong 700 States."

"Lin Bai’s invitation signifies that he has received the recognition of Famous Sword Manor!"

The crowd immediately burst into exclamations.

"It’s the Golden Sword Jade Book—it’s the Golden Sword Jade Book—the invitation from the Famous Sword Manor!" Su Jiannan, with his eyes wide in surprise, exclaimed with excitement.

At that moment, an uncontainable joy filled Su Jiannan’s heart.

"After a century, since Jian Xuan, our Spirit Sword Sect has received another invitation from the Famous Sword Manor!"

"The rise of our Spirit Sword Sect is anticipated."

Su Jiannan yelled with excitement in his heart.
