The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 581 - 580: That Same Sentence Again!

Chapter 581: Chapter 580: That Same Sentence Again!

"Devouring Sword Spirit, whose meaning offends heaven and earth, I act on Heaven’s divine will, to annihilate it!"

A loud and incredibly cold voice entered Lin Bai’s ears. The voice was indistinguishable between male and female but carried the intimidating aura of divine authority, causing Lin Bai’s heart and mind to greatly stir.

Shock-stricken, Lin Bai raised his eyes to look towards the top of the mountain.

"It was that phrase... that phrase..."

Lin Bai was so shocked he could barely get the words out.

Fright filled his eyes, and his face reflected horror!

He had heard this phrase before. Previously, in the temple, the old monk illuminated the mirror flower and water moon for Lin Bai, allowing him to glimpse some future illusions.

In that illusion, an enormous giant whose grandeur dwarfed heaven and earth uttered this phrase before attempting to extinguish Lin Bai!

"Devouring Sword Spirit, whose meaning offends heaven and earth, I act on Heaven’s divine will, to annihilate it!"

Lin Bai was yet to decipher the meaning of this phrase.

What exactly did it mean by "Devouring Sword Spirit, whose intention is against heaven and earth?" Lin Bai was unable to make sense of it.

What exactly was that about?

Moreover, "I act on heaven’s divine will to annihilate it!"

’Acting on Heaven’s Will’, what hell did that mean!

Who had given the orders to destroy the Devouring Sword Spirit?

When Lin Bai heard this phrase and fell into contemplation, half the sword body of the Sword of Firmament on the mountain top emerged from the earth.

Anyone who saw the Sword of the Firmament would undoubtedly be astonished.

Because the Sword of the Firmament was actually entirely made of wood.

It was purely a piece of wood and bore no resemblance to a sword. On its body, burnt scars left by Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire were visible, making it seem as if it were forged by Heaven and Earth.

Rumbling−−.

Shaking vibrations descended from the peak, a torrent of Sword Intention pouring down with divine-like pressure.

Confronted with this overwhelming Sword Intention, Feng Yunxiu, Jian Ruohan, and Yejian Qiu all involuntarily looked up towards the mountain peak, their faces pale and their eyes filled with confusion.

Upon the ninety-eighth step, Feng Yunxiu asked, "What is happening?"

Jian Ruohan shook his head and replied, "I don’t know. Why has the Sword Intention of the Sword Saint Mountain suddenly intensified? This kind of thing has never happened on Sword Saint Mountain before!"

Yejian Qiu frowned and said, "Everyone, it seems like this Sword Intention isn’t actually targeting us!"

"It’s heading towards something behind us!"

Yejian Qiu suddenly realized that although the Sword Intention was incredibly potent, it wasn’t directed at them.

The Sword Intention flew overhead, bypassing Feng Yunxiu, Jian Ruohan, Yejian Qiu, and the others, heading straight for the area behind them.

With a quick turn of his head, Yejian Qiu spotted Lin Bai!

"It’s heading towards him!"

Yejian Qiu cried out in astonishment.

Not only Yejian Qiu but also Feng Yunxiu, Jian Ruohan, the Prince of the Fire Sword, Su Xingmang, and the Gentle Breeze Hermit sensed that this formidable, fifth-tier Sword Intention was rushing towards Lin Bai!

Summoning a celestial force, the Sword Intention swept downwards with overwhelming force, like a tiger descending a mountain, and was about to sweep across heaven and earth with a single strike!

Bang!

Lin Bai’s eyes widened as he felt the Sword Intention rushing towards him.

"Not good!"

Inwardly crying out, Lin Bai sought to summon his Silver War Body in defense.

However, in that moment, the Sword Intention crashed down upon his chest.

Right then and there, Lin Bai was struck flying down from the eighty-sixth step, all the way to the fifty-fifth step. He crashed onto the ground, spitting out blood profusely!

Yejian Qiu exclaimed, "This Sword Intent is indeed directed at Lin Bai alone! Why is this?"

Jian Ruohan replied, "How would I know? This has never been discovered on Sword Saint Mountain before. More importantly, who is the source of this Sword Intent? The strength of this Sword Intent, the power of heaven and earth that it mobilizes, is almost comparable to a fifth-tier Sword Intent!"

In the midst of Jian’s shock, she suddenly turned back to look at the top of the mountain, crying out in her heart, "Does it come from the Sword of the Firmament?"

Feng Yunxiu cast a glance at Lin Bai and coldly declared, "Hmph, he is just a useless ant. How can he compete on the same stage as us? Even the Sword Saint Mountain couldn’t bear to watch him, it wants to strike him down!"

"Hmph, if you guys want to stay here to watch the show, then watch it carefully. I’m leaving first!"

Feng Yunxiu continued to step up, passing the ninety-ninth step, surpassed the Sword Saint Mountain, and rushed towards the Empty Crossing in the Sky.

After a few flashes of Jian’s eyes, she turned around and continued to climb towards the top of the mountain.

Yejian Qiu hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Lin, I hope you can withstand this Sword Intent."

After saying this, Yejian Qiu also continued to climb towards the top of the mountain.

On the fifty-fifth step.

As Lin Bai was sent flying down, the surrounding warriors began to ridicule, "Hey, brother, weren’t you running so fast? Why aren’t you running now? Why did you fall down like a dog eating shit?"

"Arrogant, aren’t you? Now the Sword Saint Mountain will take care of you!"

"A warrior in the Middle Stage of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm, who dares to be so arrogant, who gave you the courage!"

Seeing Lin Bai falling, the surrounding warriors started to mock him.

Standing up from the fifty-fifth-step platform, Lin Bai swept over the ridiculing warriors with murderous eyes. The grey Sword Aura flashed, blood splashed out.

All the warriors who were mocking Lin Bai were killed by his sword in an instant!

I... I... I was just joking, you didn’t have to kill me..."

The warrior that had been mocking Lin Bai the hardest held his throat in disbelief, staring at Lin Bai, and his body eventually fell limply down.

Enraged, Lin Bai looked up at the top of the mountain, "You don’t want me to reach the peak! You even invoked Sword Intent to kill me! Fine, I’m curious who wants to kill me so badly!"

Lin Bai tightly gripped the Qingge Sword, activated the Silver War Body, and once again began to climb towards the top of the mountain.

Whoosh—

Suddenly, from the mountain peak, Sword Intent materialized into transparent swords. Like a rain of thousands of swords, they descended on the steps of the Sword Saint Mountain.

The warriors still on the steps of Sword Saint Mountain cried out in alarm, "My God, this power of the heavens and earth will shatter us into pieces in an instant."

"This is terrifying, why is Sword Saint Mountain so terrifying this year!"

"Does the Famous Sword Manor intend to kill us all here?"

"Wait a moment, guys, these swords of Sword Intent, they seem to be not directed at us, but at one person..."

Now all the warriors on the steps of the Sword Saint Mountain looked up to the figure standing on the fifty-fifth step. He was covered in blood but still standing proud, holding a sharp sword. Despite only seeing his back, one could still feel the murderous intent in his eyes!

"Kill!"

Seeing the incoming rain of swords, Lin Bai flashed the Qingge Sword and slashed forcefully. The earth-shattering Sword Qi flew through the air, striking the rain of swords.

The colossal counterforce immediately shook the entire Sword Saint Mountain.
