Chapter 940: Chapter 938: Strong One! Lin Bai! (5 more)

"There are Spirit Puppets, so many Spirit Puppets!"

"..."

Cries of surprise came one after another.

Lin Bai looked up and saw a large number of Third-Order Spirit Puppets appearing on the distant horizon, charging towards the rear of the team!

Jian Ruohan said, "Finally, we’ve encountered a juicy morsel."

Lin Bai said, "This group of Spirit Puppets looks to be over a thousand strong, with more than a hundred Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets among them. They’ve come from behind, and the ones covering our retreat are Ruan Jinhui and Lu Rui; they’re no match for the Spirit Puppets!"

"I know. I’ll go support them. You all take care of the middle," Jian Ruohan told Lin Bai.

"Okay," Lin Bai nodded.

Immediately, Lin Bai and the other three members of the Guard Team deployed their movement techniques and headed to the rear of the formation.

Just at that moment, the expressions on Ruan Jinhui and Lu Rui’s faces were full of panic, but they showed signs of relief when they saw Jian Ruohan and the other three members of the Guard Team arrive.

These five working together should be able to easily slaughter this group of Spirit Puppets!

"I just hope that among that group of Spirit Puppets, there aren’t any beyond the Fifth Level. Otherwise, it won’t just be the Guard Team that gets wiped out; even these more than five thousand disciples are likely to be annihilated!"

Lin Bai looked toward Jian Ruohan’s retreating figure, his face growing somber.

"All disciples, be quiet, maintain the formation, and continue to sweep forward, and watch out for any Spirit Puppets that may appear from the front, back, left, or right." Lin Bai immediately activated his power and shouted loudly.

At once, the disciples settled down and maintained their speed, continuing to charge forward.

The more than a thousand Spirit Puppets that had appeared at the rear were left to the Warriors stationed there.

Previously, Ruan Jinhui had said that the five thousand Warriors were divided into ten teams, with five hundred people in each team. Arranged in the Array Dao Temple’s formations, they both attack and defend in an orderly manner, very steady and reliable.

According to this arrangement, the Spirit Puppets that appeared at the rear would be dealt with by the rear!

The Spirit Puppets that appeared on the sides would be dealt with by the middle.

The Spirit Puppets that appeared in the front would be handled by the Warriors at the forefront.

This way, every disciple has the chance to obtain a good amount of Spirit Crystals and also a great opportunity to showcase their abilities!

Lin Bai stayed in the middle, continuing to advance with the team, while after Jian Ruohan went to the rear, a towering battle erupted there, and fierce booming noises spread far and wide!

A moment later, Ling Shuang, who had gone to the rear, returned.

Ling Shuang was a woman from the Spear Daoist Courtyard, and her spear skills were extremely ferocious!

"Senior Sister Ling Shuang?" Lin Bai, seeing Ling Shuang heading straight for him, curiously asked.

Upon her arrival, without the slightest pause to rest, she said, "Junior Brother Lin Bai, the rear can’t hold out. If no Spirit Puppets appear at the middle, please go support the rear as well."

Lin Bai was taken aback and asked, "How could that be? With Miss Jian Ruohan and Elder Brother Ruan Jinhui there, as well as you and the other three Fourth Level Martial Intent experts, the five of you, defeating those Spirit Puppets should be a piece of cake."

"That’s true. If there were only Third Grade Spirit Puppets, we could easily take care of them," Ling Shuang said. "But among these Spirit Puppets, there are more than a hundred Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets! Eighteen Fifth Level Spirit Puppets!"

"What’s more, we have been dragging this out too long, and a lot of Spirit Puppets have been continuously arriving from other places to reinforce. The number of Spirit Puppets at the rear has now reached over two thousand."

"Elder Brother Ruan estimates that if we can’t quickly kill this group of Spirit Puppets, this commotion will continue and most likely attract even more Spirit Puppets!"

"The formation might be broken through."

"So that’s why Elder Brother Ruan sent me to inform the middle Guard Team to go and support the rear, so we can kill this group of Spirit Puppets as fast as possible!"

Ling Shuang quickly briefed Lin Bai on the situation at the rear.

"So there are Fifth Level Spirit Puppets involved; no wonder it’s so difficult. Alright, I’ll head to the rear to support immediately!" After hearing the situation, Lin Bai realized it was not looking good at the rear. Instantly, he flashed toward the rear with his movement technique.

At the very back of the large team, a bloody battle raged on.

Ruan Jinhui, Jian Ruohan, Lu Rui, and others tried to fend off the Spirit Puppets catching up from behind while keeping up with the steps of the main team with their movement techniques!

Among this group of Spirit Puppets, there was one whose mask bore the conspicuous words "Fifth Level Spirit Puppet."

Lin Bai and Ling Shuang arrived together at the rear.

Lin Bai’s expression was icy cold; the number of Spirit Puppets was increasing.

After Lu Rui killed a Third-Order Spirit Puppet with a single stroke of his sword, he turned back and saw Lin Bai, immediately saying angrily, "Senior Sister Ling Shuang, didn’t you say you were going to call Elder Brother Qian Shanyun? Why did you bring Lin Bai instead?"

"What help can Martial Intent cultivated from a Yellow Rank First Class Martial Spirit possibly provide?" Lu Rui shouted in exasperation.

Ruan Jinhui’s face turned red, and his eyes were cold, "Ah, Lu Rui, what time is it now? Stop saying such things."

"Junior Brother Lin Bai, now that you’ve arrived, make your move quickly!"

Ruan Jinhui said to Lin Bai.

"What difference does it make whether he’s here or not when it’s just a Yellow Level First Grade Martial Spirit’s cultivation of Martial Intent? Senior Sister Ling Shuang, you should quickly call for Elder Brother Qian Shanyun instead!"

Ignoring Ruan Jinhui, Lu Rui kept shouting to Ling Shuang relentlessly.

Upon hearing Lu Rui’s words, Ling Shuang was about to turn around and call for Qian Shanyun from the central area again.

Lin Bai said, "There’s no need, I can handle it here."

Ling Shuang paused, looking at Lin Bai with some confusion.

"Sword’s Arrival!"

Gazing at the over three hundred Third-Order Spirit Puppets pursuing from behind, Lin Bai’s eyes quickly grew cold, and with a cry of "Sword’s Arrival," a Sharp Sword materialized out of thin air in the palm of his hand!

Immediately.

Lin Bai leaped into the air and slashed down a Sword Qi.

"Sword Heart Clarity!"

This Sword Qi swept across unstoppably and struck the group of Spirit Puppets.

Bang bang bang bang——

A series of loud explosive noises followed.

Under this Sword Qi from Lin Bai, over thirty Third-Order Spirit Puppets instantly exploded, leaving Spirit Crystals on the ground!

"What!"

Ruan Jinhui focused his gaze and saw that with one sword strike, Lin Bai had killed over thirty Third-Order Spirit Puppets; his face was completely filled with shock.

Although they were all Fourth Level Martial Intent experts, their strength was ultimately limited!

Take Ruan Jinhui for example; his most powerful palm strike could at most kill three Third-Order Spirit Puppets, which was already quite impressive!

Yet Lin Bai’s one sword strike directly killed over thirty Third-Order Spirit Puppets!

"Nine Rotations Sword Steps!"

Lin Bai’s expression remained icy as he slightly lifted his foot, and in the instant it landed, his figure disappeared from its original spot.

All of a sudden, everyone saw a white light as swift as lightning rushing into the midst of the Spirit Puppets.

His Sword pointed straight at the seven Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets!

The Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets quickly sensed Lin Bai’s presence, and all seven pounced at him, their sharp blades slashing down in unison, intending to tear Lin Bai into pieces!

However, at this moment!

A terrifying Thunderbolt Power rapidly converged.

"Divine Sword Thunder Control Skill!"

From the blade of Lin Bai’s Sword, a terrifyingly powerful lightning sword column blasted out, piercing directly through the heads of the seven attacking Fourth-Order Spirit Puppets!

Such formidable Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets were instantly annihilated under Lin Bai’s Sword!

"Junior Brother Lin Bai’s Martial Intent is so formidably powerful!" Even Ruan Jinhui was deeply shocked by the combat strength Lin Bai had unleashed.

"How... how is this possible! Martial Intent cultivated from a Yellow Level First Class Martial Spirit, to be able to easily slay seven Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets?" Lu Rui’s face showed utter bewilderment.

Jian Ruohan stared intently, her pretty face revealing a trace of surprise as she whispered, "I underestimated you; I didn’t expect your Fourth-order Sword Intent to erupt with the might of a Fifth-order Sword Intent!"
