Chapter 932: Chapter 930: A Flood of Requests for Help!

Whoosh!

Lin Bai transformed into a streak of extreme white light, flashing across the earth and heading straight for the southeast.

"Si Bao, how far am I from Crocodile Beach now?" Lin Bai asked while speeding along.

Si Bao replied, "I do not have the authority to interfere with anything that happens within the illusory battlefield, nor can I inform you of any location. If you are looking for Crocodile Beach, the map of the illusory battlefield is engraved on your Sound Transmission Talisman!"

"Why didn’t you tell me earlier!" Lin Bai complained, exasperated.

"Open the map!"

Lin Bai growled.

Immediately, a white light flashed on the Identity Token, and a map appeared in front of Lin Bai.

Lin Bai spread it out to look.

Inside the illusory battlefield of Martial Intent Mountain, it was divided into four parts: Sunlit Land, Qiankun Oceans, King’s Forest, and Feng Xi City.

And Lin Bai’s location was a place called "Scorching Gobi" in the Sunlit Land.

Lin Bai’s gaze quickly focused on the Scorching Gobi, and he soon found the location of Crocodile Beach.

"Not very far, about half an hour away, I guess."

Lin Bai’s eyes sharpened, filled with eagerness, and he headed straight for Crocodile Beach.

For half an hour, Lin Bai sped across the torrid expanse of the gobi.

Finally, he found the Crocodile Beach mentioned in Wei Yuhua’s call for help!

The landscape there resembled the body of a giant deceased crocodile, with many traces of water still within.

After approaching Crocodile Beach, Lin Bai slowed down and didn’t rush over.

Although second-level Spirit Puppets were weak, third-level Spirit Puppets were not necessarily so.

Moreover, the illusory battlefield within Martial Intent Mountain was powered by Sword Intention.

Lin Bai, currently at Third-order Sword Intention, could probably contend with a single third-level Spirit Puppet, but a group of third-level Spirit Puppets swarming him, he feared he wouldn’t be able to withstand them.

Therefore, Lin Bai had to observe the situation first!

Arriving at Crocodile Beach, Lin Bai looked out from afar and saw over a hundred Spirit Puppets chasing after three struggling figures ahead.

Those three figures were three men.

The leading man, slightly older, looked to be in his early thirties.

Over a hundred Spirit Puppets were pursuing these three men, sweeping swiftly across the land.

"Damn it, why are there so many Spirit Puppets, and all of them are strong, all being third and fourth-level Spirit Puppets. Isn’t the Scorching Gobi close to the periphery? How could so many Spirit Puppets suddenly appear here?" the thirty-something man cursed in a low growl.

"Big Brother Wei, stop blaming and think of a way to escape. Otherwise, if we die at the hands of this group of Spirit Puppets, we’ll have to wait ten days before we can enter Martial Intent Mountain again," said a younger boy next to Wei Yuhua.

"How are we so unlucky? We’ve barely been here a day and we’ve encountered so many Spirit Puppets?" another boy also lamented.

These three people were all disciples of the Spear Daoist Courtyard!

They had entered Martial Intent Mountain together to cultivate. Originally, they were a group of more than ten people, but as soon as they set foot on Martial Intent Mountain, they encountered this group of Spirit Puppets. Seven or eight were killed immediately, leaving only these three alive.

With no other option, Wei Yuhua had to send out a distress signal.

"Don’t panic, Junior Brothers. Although the Scorching Gobi is at the outer edge of Martial Intent Mountain, many third-level Warriors practice here. I’ve already asked Si Bao to send out a call for help, and I believe it won’t be long before a strong one comes to our aid," he comforted them.

"With so many third-level Spirit Puppets here, I refuse to believe that these people won’t be tempted."

"All we need to do is hold on. Once other Warriors hear the news and arrive, we’ll be saved," Wei Yuhua reassured.

"I hope so," Wei Yuhua’s two Junior Brothers nodded with solemn faces, not daring to be careless.

Lin Bai, hiding his presence, silently followed the group of Spirit Puppets, observing.

"Over a hundred and fifty third-level Spirit Puppets, seventy-five fourth-level Spirit Puppets, and within them, there are nine fifth-level Spirit Puppets, and three sixth-level Spirit Puppets..."

"Wait a minute!"

"Is that... a seventh-level Spirit Puppet in the center of these Spirit Puppets?"

When Lin Bai saw "Seventh-level Spirit Puppet" written on a mask among the Spirit Puppets, he was so startled that he shuddered.

A seventh-level Spirit Puppet, only a Warrior with Seventh Stage Sword Intention could fight against!

"How is this possible!"

"This is the outermost part of Martial Intent Mountain, theoretically only third-level Spirit Puppets should appear, how can there be a seventh-level Spirit Puppet!"

Lin Bai was dumbfounded.

He opened the map again and examined it once more. No mistake, this place was the periphery; a seventh-level Spirit Puppet should not be possible.

A seventh-level Spirit Puppet appearing in the Scorching Gobi, what did that imply?

It was like setting a wolf amidst a flock of sheep!

A seventh-level Spirit Puppet on the Scorching Gobi would be an existence akin to a deity!

Because no one here could possibly stand against a Seventh-level Spirit Puppet!

On the Scorching Gobi, most are Warriors around the third rank.

Warriors with the Fourth Level Martial Intent are already considered strong ones in this place!

The appearance of a Seventh-level Spirit Puppet meant that on the Scorching Gobi, no one would be a match for it! Unless it was those experts with the Sixth Stage Martial Intent who went deep into Martial Intent Mountain, or those who possessed the Seventh Stage Martial Intent and had returned, only they might have the chance to kill them!

Ding——

Suddenly, Lin Bai’s Identity Token emitted a soft sound.

"What’s happening, Si Bao?" Lin Bai inquired.

Si Bao responded, "There’s a request for assistance."

"Let me hear it," Lin Bai replied directly.

Immediately, a woman’s voice came from the token, "I am Lin Ling from the Sword Art Academy, I have encountered a large number of Third Grade and higher Spirit Puppets on the Scorching Gobi. I hope the fellow Taoists on the Scorching Gobi can come to assist!"

"Lin Ling?" Lin Bai was taken aback before muttering to himself, "Why have a large number of Spirit Puppets appeared again? Is it a Spiritual Tide?"

Lin Bai’s gaze became enigmatic.

He continued to follow Wei Yuhua and the others but did not recklessly charge into the Spirit Puppets, keeping his distance instead.

With the situation unclear, it was best not to act rashly.

Ding——

Suddenly, another crisp sound came from Lin Bai’s Identity Token. Lin Bai, puzzled, asked, "Si Bao, is it another call for help?"

"Yes," Si Bao answered.

"Si Bao, for the next three hours, let me hear all calls for help without asking for my opinion," Lin Bai said indifferently.

"Okay," Si Bao obediently replied.

Ding——

The crisp sound came again.

"I am Qin Kai from the Dan Dao Courtyard. I have encountered a large number of Third Grade Spirit Puppets on the Scorching Gobi, which I suspect to be the outbreak of a Spiritual Tide. Please, any Taoist friends who hear this message, come quickly to assist. I estimate there are no less than three hundred!"

Ding——

"I am Su Zi, a disciple of the Sound Dao Academy. I have encountered a Spiritual Tide on the Scorching Gobi. Please, my fellow Taoists, come fast to help me slay the Spirit Puppets!"

Ding——

"Hurry, hurry, in the midst of the Scorching Gobi Coral Dry Sea, there are at least over a thousand Spirit Puppets, all of them third and fourth grade. Those who want Spirit Crystals, come quickly!"

Ding——

"..."

"..."

As Lin Bai followed Wei Yuhua and the others, he also listened to the series of assistance messages transmitted through the Identity Tokens.

In just half an hour, there had been more than fifty calls for help broadcast to all disciples’ Sound Transmission Talismans in the Scorching Gobi.

"So many calls for help? So many Spiritual Tides?"

"Something is not right here!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai’s gaze deepened as he murmured to himself, "A Spiritual Tide signifies the massive outbreak of Spirit Puppets, like a flood of fierce beasts!"

"A Spiritual Tide in the Illusory Battlefield with over a hundred at once is considered an immense opportunity! Why would so many appear all at once?"

"This is too strange!"

"What the heck happened?"

"The strangest thing is, why would a Seventh-level Spirit Puppet appear on the Scorching Gobi?"

Lin Bai muttered to himself.

At that moment, Lin Bai’s gaze suddenly changed as he saw upon the Earth ahead a group of terrifyingly strong Warriors, each of them exuding the formidable Third Level Martial Intent!

"I am Chai Lin from the Sword Art Academy, may I ask if the one ahead is Wei Yuhua from the Spear Daoist Courtyard?"

Upon their appearance, this group of Warriors immediately called out to the three Warriors who were fleeing in disarray.

Upon hearing this, Wei Yuhua hastily yelled, "It is indeed I, I urge Fellow Daoist Chai Lin to take action without hesitation!"

"Okay!" The group of Warriors instantly turned their gaze towards the over a hundred Spirit Puppets, and pounced into battle.

"They’re taking action!" Lin Bai observed everything from a distance, with a slight change in his gaze, "Something isn’t right, they seem to be unaware of the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet’s presence!"

"That Seventh-level Spirit Puppet is surrounded by a group of Third Grade Spirit Puppets, if I had not been observing for half an hour, I might not have seen it myself!"

"Should I intervene?"

Lin Bai’s gaze fell into contemplation, and after pondering for a moment, his eyes showed determination, "How could one come upon Treasure Mountain and leave empty-handed? As long as I don’t provoke that Seventh-level Spirit Puppet, there should be no risk to my life!"

"I’ll just slay some Third Grade Spirit Puppets and leave!"

Having made up his mind, Lin Bai took action and darted forward.

He entered the battlefield!
