The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 941 - 939: Slaying the Fifth Level Spirit Puppet!

Chapter 941: Chapter 939: Slaying the Fifth Level Spirit Puppet!

A streak of lightning-as-sword blasted the seven Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets in front of him into oblivion. With a cold demeanor, Lin Bai flashed in movement and gathered the seven Fourth-level Spiritual Crystals into his bosom.

"Leave the Third Grade Spirit Puppets to you all!"

"I will handle the Fourth Grade."

Lin Bai looked back at Ruan Jinhui and Jian Ruohan, then in a flash, he turned into a bolt of lightning that streaked past all the Third Grade Spirit Puppets, with his sword aiming straight at a Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet!

Sword raised! Sword dropped!

A Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet was directly annihilated under Lin Bai’s sword!

Lin Bai was like a killing machine, constantly weaving through the Spirit Puppets, seeking out every Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet and swiftly flying his sword to slay each one!

With just a single stroke, Lin Bai could easily kill every Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet!

Witnessing Lin Bai slaughter endlessly among the horde of Spirit Puppets, Ruan Jinhui and Lu Rui’s faces revealed utter disbelief.

"Junior Brother Lin Bai’s Sword Intention actually bears such terrifying might!" Ruan Jinhui said, his eyes filled with deep shock. Ruan Jinhui had also been cultivating for over thirty years and had seen many warriors’ Sword Intents on the Miracle Ridge.

But he had never seen a destructive Sword Intention like Lin Bai’s!

"To kill a Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet with a single sword strike, my heavens... how has he cultivated? A Yellow Level First Grade Martial Soul wielding such terrifying power?" Lu Rui watched Lin Bai with a stunned gaze and spoke with amazement.

Even Lu Rui and Ruan Jinhui were so shocked, while the other Second-order Martial Intent warriors were even more ecstatic.

"Brothers, kill! Leave the Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets to the Guard Team to handle!"

"Let’s join hands to kill the Third Grade Spirit Puppets, they are all Spirit Crystals!"

"Kill!"

Countless Second-order Martial Intent warriors united in action, eradicating one Third Grade Spirit Puppet after another with their techniques.

In just a moment, Lin Bai charged through the crowd of Spirit Puppets, almost half of all Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets perishing by his hand!

"Kill!"

Moving like lightning, Lin Bai surged past waves of Third Grade Spirit Puppets, his sword aimed directly at a Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet ahead, his gaze icy cold. A burst of Sword Aura flared out, covering a hundred meters distance to slay the Spirit Puppet with one sword strike!

With a surge of power, he drew the Fourth Grade Spirit Puppet into his hand!

"Seventy-eight Fourth-level Spiritual Crystals now!"

"Not a bad haul."

Lin Bai touched the Fourth-level Spiritual Crystals in his bosom, a hint of a smile appearing on his face.

This was indeed much easier than venturing out alone.

But at that moment!

Lin Bai’s smile on his face froze, as he sensed a cold murderous intent barreling towards him.

Glancing over, a Fifth Level Spirit Puppet struck fiercely with a palm.

"Not good!"

Lin Bai was internally alarmed and quickly raised his sword in defense.

Instantly, the terrifying power of a Fifth Level Spirit Puppet concentrated on its palm strike shook the heavens and the earth, its power boundless.

After a palm strike hit the blade of Lin Bai’s sword, the sheer force sent him flying for hundreds of meters, and upon falling to the ground, Lin Bai’s phantom form began to faintly fade.

Clearly, the power of the Fifth Level Spirit Puppet exceeded Lin Bai’s expectations.

"A Fifth Level Spirit Puppet is indeed several times stronger than the Fourth Level ones!"

"But if I were to use all my techniques, there’s still a possibility to slay it!"

Lin Bai quickly scrambled up from the ground, originally planning to directly use his trump card to eradicate the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet.

But, as Lin Bai turned his head in surprise, he saw Jian Ruohan, Ruan Jinhui, Lu Rui, and a large number of disciples all staring at him with their mouths agape and eyes wide.

Only then did Lin Bai remember, the combat strength he had displayed today was excessively dazzling.

If he used his trump card now to slay the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet, he feared it would inspire jealousy!

Besides, it was better not to expose one’s trump card too soon.

What trump cards did Lin Bai have?

The Dual Sword technique, to this day Lin Bai had yet to multitask with it, which counted as a minor trump card for him.

The Nine Rotations Sword Steps, the prowess of this magical movement technique had thoroughly surpassed that of Lower-grade Divine Powers, and although Lin Bai had only cultivated the first rotation, his speed was already the strongest among those of the same state.

The Second Form of the Mo Wen Sword, Sweeping Thousands of Soldiers, the power of the Mo Wen Sword was incredibly strong. When he encountered Lin Ling previously, Lin Bai had slain more than thirty Third-grade Spirit Puppets with a single sword strike, at that time he had only used thirty percent of his strength.

The Great Desolation Skill was a technique that could allow Lin Bai to instantly increase his combat power by several grades. Once deployed, Lin Bai would inevitably possess the ability to slay Sixth Level Spirit Puppets, and could even slay Seventh-level Spirit Puppets!

"Forget it, let’s not expose the trump card too soon!" After much contemplation, Lin Bai dismissed the idea of soloing the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet and called out to Jian Ruohan, "Miss Jian Ruohan, how about you and I join forces to slay the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet?"

"Alright," Jian Ruohan flew to Lin Bai’s side and nodded as she landed.

"Good, as for the distribution of the Spirit Crystal after slaying the Spirit Puppet..." Lin Bai just began to discuss the division with Jian Ruohan.

But Jian Ruohan interrupted him urgently, "Let’s talk about the distribution of the Spirit Crystals later, if you urgently need Spirit Crystals right now, I don’t need any!"

"I’ll help you slay the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet!"

Jian Ruohan’s countenance remained cold, her speech giving no hint of any emotional fluctuation, as if she were a block of ice!

"Uh..." Lin Bai blinked, what do you mean you don’t want any Fifth-level Spirit Crystals?

Fifth-level Spirit Crystals! For a Sword Cultivator with Fourth-order Sword Intent, these were coveted treasures!

To say it without exaggeration, a single Fifth-level Spiritual Crystal could allow a cultivator with Third-order Sword Intent to break through to the Fourth Order!

Priceless beyond measure!

And yet Jian Ruohan was now saying she didn’t want any, which astonished Lin Bai.

"Stop talking, it’s here!"

At that moment, Jian Ruohan urgently shouted, drawing her Sharp Sword and staring coldly at a Fifth-level Spirit Puppet that was attacking from the front.

"Alright, we’ll talk about the distribution of the Spirit Crystals later!" Lin Bai also quickly entered into a battle-ready state, his sword tip pointing towards the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet. Both of them executed their movement techniques and vanished in a burst of speed.

Lin Bai’s Sword Skill was fierce and domineering, destroying all in its path!

Jian Ruohan’s Sword Skill was cold and uncaring, freezing over heaven and earth!

They, one on the left and one on the right, made their way to the Fifth-level Spirit Puppet. Although they didn’t say much, it seemed as though they had a tacit understanding between them. No matter what Lin Bai would do the next moment, Jian Ruohan seemed to perceive Lin Bai’s intentions and swiftly adjusted her Sword Skill to coordinate with him.

Only half a moment passed before a Fifth-level Spirit Puppet was directly eradicated by the combined efforts of Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan.

Moreover, ease was still evident on the faces of both Jian Ruohan and Lin Bai, clearly indicating that slaying this Fifth-level Spirit Puppet had not required them to use all of their strength!

"Their cooperation is simply seamless! You can even say it’s as if they have telepathy!" Ruan Jinhui said in alarm: "If you told me they were a couple that had been together for many years, I doubt anyone would find that to be amiss, because they understand each other too well!"

"No, it should be said that Junior Sister Jian Ruohan understands Lin Bai’s Sword Skill very well!"

"No matter what Lin Bai’s Sword, is going to do the next moment, Junior Sister Jian Ruohan can clearly sense it, thus adjusting her Sword Skill to coordinate with Junior Brother Lin Bai’s attack!"

"Lin Bai attacks, Jian Ruohan defends!"

"It’s just perfect."

Ruan Jinhui exclaimed in amazement.
