The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 608 - 607: Five Poison Sect Branch!

Chapter 608: Chapter 607: Five Poison Sect Branch!

Just as this old lady had mentioned, even though Spirit Sword Sect had a long inheritance and had once been glorious within the territory of Shenwu Kingdom, it couldn’t compare to the peak sword sects such as the Famous Sword Manor in the larger world of the Lingdong 700 States.

The Spirit Sword Sect had been passed down for over five thousand years and had produced countless disciples. Yet among these countless disciples, only two had become the first sword cultivators of Dongling.

One was Jian Xuan from a hundred years ago.

The other was Lin Bai today.

At this moment, Lishu An greeted Lin Bai as he entered the hall.

Lishu An was filled with respect for Lin Bai now.

"Elder, I have returned."

Lin Bai entered the hall, smiling as he said with a fist salute.

Ji Bei was ecstatic, he ran over to hug Lin Bai, saying, "Excellent, excellent! Lin Bai, you truly didn’t let us down. After centuries, a disciple from our Spirit Sword Sect has once again reached the peak of Dongling sword cultivators!"

Nanli Dao and Ye Guxing also sincerely congratulated, "Congratulations, Lin Bai."

Bai Zhiyuan ran over at this point, pushing Ji Bei aside, "You step back, let me hug him for a bit."

"Brother Lin Bai."

Bai Zhiyuan threw herself into Lin Bai’s arms, calling him affectionately.

Lin Bai indulgently stroked Bai Zhiyuan’s head, his kindly smile sweeping the room.

At that moment, when Lin Bai saw an old woman leaning on a crutch in the hall, he felt his pupils contract. He sensed from within this old woman a power capable of obliterating the heavens and the earth.

"Who is this?" Lin Bai looked at the old woman, asking curiously.

Bai Zhiyuan said with a laugh, "Brother Lin Bai, this old woman said she wanted to take me as a disciple."

Hearing Bai Zhiyuan’s words, Lin Bai looked at the old lady with curiosity.

The old woman took a couple of shaky steps forward, and smiled warmly at Lin Bai, saying, "You are not worthy to know my name, but what I can tell you is, I’m an old friend of your master Ling Tianzi."

"If you go by seniority, you should call me ’Master Aunt.’"

The old woman said this cheerfully.

"Master Aunt..." Lin Bai stared wide-eyed at the old woman.

Hearing the old woman bring up Ling Tianzi as soon as she opened her mouth surprised Lin Bai.

Lin Bai’s discipleship under Ling Tianzi was not well known.

Ling Tianzi had once said that none of his friends were in this place. Once Lin Bai managed to shatter the heavens and find Ling Tianzi, he would hold another ceremony for Lin Bai to formally become his disciple.

By then, Ling Tianzi would invite all the gods and demons in the sky to attend the ceremony, and announce to everyone that Lin Bai was the fourth disciple of Ling Tianzi.

The old woman laughed, "I saw this young girl’s potential, but it’s a pity that nobody here recognizes her value. I had intended to leave with her right away, but she said she wanted to ask for your opinion."

Lin Bai curiously asked, "If you really are my Master Aunt, then which sect and lineage do you and my Master belong to?"

The Old woman laughed, "Lin Bai, you need not try to trick me with your words. I have traveled through the three thousand realms, seen all sorts of demons and monsters, do you think you can outwit me with your little tricks?"

Lin Bai awkwardly smiled.

The old woman laughed and said, "Fine, since Bai Zhiyuan trusts you so much, I will grant you a gift."

As she said that, the old woman brought up a golden flower in her hand, and handed it to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai took the golden flower, and curiously asked, "Master Aunt... What is this?"

The old woman said, "Inside this golden flower, a large amount of pure spiritual energy is stored. If one day you have a life-and-death battle and are severely injured, crush this golden flower and the power within will instantly heal all your injuries and regain your peak condition!"

Surprising!

Upon hearing the old woman’s words, Lin Bai’s eyes widened in shock.

This little golden flower can bring a dying, critically injured person back to his prime in an instant.

Could it really be so miraculous?

The old woman continued: "There’s another reason I’m giving you this golden flower. Take it back and show it to Ling Tianzi, and then he will tell you whether what I’ve been saying is false."

"Then, ask him whether you should call me ’uncle master’ based on your lineage!"

"If Ling Tianzi thinks my identity is deceitful and you are not comfortable with Bai Zhiyuan accompanying me, then, let Ling Tianzi find me. He knows how to do it."

Finishing her words, the old woman walked toward Bai Zhiyuan and suddenly disappeared into Sword River Palace with him.

"Senior... senior... Uncle Master... Uncle Master..."

Lin Bai called out.

"Lin Bai, as someone of the Sky-swallowing Clan with a destiny defying heaven, I hope that you can withstand the Nine Strikes of the Giant God. don’t let him defeat you. Take care."

All this time, the last sentence of the old woman echoed within the Sword River Palace.

"Nine Strikes of the Giant God!"

"Is the ’Giant God’ mentioned by Uncle Master the giant that I saw in the illusion?"

"Exactly what is happening? How can the Devouring Sword Spirit be chased by this giant."

"Since Uncle Master knows the fate of the Devouring Sword Spirit, my Master should also know..."

"I have to go back and ask my Master what’s going on!"

Hence, Lin Bai, feeling desperate to return to the Spirit Sword Sect.

"Elder Ji Bei, let’s pack up and prepare to return to Spirit Sword Sect."

As of now, Lin Bai had no intention of staying and cultivating in the Famous Sword Manor.

As for the identity of this old woman, Lin Bai must return to ask Ling Tianzi.

In addition, about Lin Bai’s Devouring Sword Spirit, Lin Bai also must return to ask Ling Tianzi.

Soon after, Lin Bai and Elder Ji Bei arrived at the Famous Sword Manor and bid farewell to Jian Qianqiu and Jian Ruohan.

Three days later.

Lin Bai, Ji Bei, Nanli Dao, and Ye Guxing left the territory of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty and headed straight towards Shenwu Kingdom.

Coming here, Lin Bai traveled by sword.

But now returning to Shenwu Kingdom, Lin Bai’s flying sword couldn’t carry three people. He could only ride back with Elder Ji Bei and the others.

Previously, when Lin Bai left Shenwu Kingdom, he first went to the Fengyun Dynasty, detouring a lot.

In reality, the journey from the Heavenly Sword Dynasty back to Shenwu Kingdom, sprinting at full speed, only took about ten days.

After Ji Bei and Lin Bai left the Heavenly Sword Dynasty.

A black-robed person appeared next to Hua Yuxian and said, "Reporting to the Saintess, Lin Bai and the warriors from the Spirit Sword Sect have left Famous Sword Manor and returned to Shenwu Kingdom."

Hua Yuxian said coldly, "Young Master Yishan, this useless person, not only did he fail to kill Lin Bai, she nearly exposed me as well!"

"More hindrance than help! Now I don’t dare to challenge Sword Cultivators in Sword Discussion City!"

"Currently, in the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, are there any branches?"

The language of Hua Yuxian was ice cold, with an inviolable majesty.

The black-robed person said, "As per the Sect Leader Supreme’s decree, the Five Poison Sect is in troubled times and we should keep a low profile as much as possible. So most experts have returned to the headquarters. Now in the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, there is only one branch that has transformed into a small family."

"But their strength also has three experts at the first layer of the Human Elixir Realm!"

Hua Yuxian said, "The three experts at the first layer of the Human Elixir Realm, it’s enough to kill Lin Bai now. Send the order to the branch to pursue and kill Lin Bai. Be sure to snatch the key in Lin Bai’s storage bag on the way."

"This matter concerns the Five Poison Sect’s big plan; there must be no mistakes."

Hua Yuxian said coldly.

The black-robed person said, "Yes, I will pass on the order now."
