The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 946 - 944: Sweeping Through!

Chapter 946: Chapter 944: Sweeping Through!

Chi Hu and Qian Shanyun both watched Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan’s figures with intense focus in their eyes.

"Sigh!" Upon seeing Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan making their moves, Ling Shuang let out a helpless sigh on her face, knowing that the upcoming battlefield and all the fifth-level Spirit Puppets were basically none of her business!

Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, one in front and the other behind, charged into the battlefield with movement techniques swift as lightning.

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, and a cold hue appeared in an instant. With a single-handed grasp, a Sharp Sword emerged in his hand, slashing the air, and formidable Sword Aura immediately rolled out like a tide, crushing forward.

In front, five fifth-level Spirit Puppets lunged with bared fangs and brandished claws, colliding with Lin Bai’s Sword Aura, and immediately dissipated into nothingness, leaving behind five Fifth Level Spirit Crystals on the spot!

After casually collecting the Spirit Crystals, Lin Bai continued his assault on other fifth-level Spirit Puppets!

Jian Ruohan behind him did the same, deploying a special Frost domain that enveloped a kilometer area. Within this domain, every move of Jian Ruohan carried the chilling breath that could freeze earth and sky. With a casual swing of her sword, she turned a group of Spirit Puppets into ice blocks, which then shattered, leaving behind Spirit Crystals!

Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, entering the center of the battlefield, began their sweep.

The two of them were no longer interested in fourth-grade Spirit Puppets and targeted only the fifth-level ones.

In just a short moment, more than one hundred and fifty fifth-level Spirit Puppets were all slain under the swords of Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan.

"This!!" Qian Shanyun stared dumbfounded at Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan who rushed into the battlefield, seeing one fifth-level Spirit Puppet after another fall like papier-mâché under their swords, his expression turned rigid, and he was so shocked that he couldn’t utter a word for a long while.

"That’s too fierce!" Chi Hu’s eyes widened larger than lanterns, saying in disbelief.

Ling Shuang let out a cold chuckle, simply put away her weapon, crossed her arms, and coldly said, "Qian Shanyun, Chi Hu, do you now understand why every time before I take action, I have to tell Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan not to move?"

"Because once they do, this battlefield basically has nothing to do with us."

Ling Shuang said with a sneer, shaking her head in resignation.

Chi Hu and Qian Shanyun exchanged glances, then said with wry smiles, "Senior Sister Ling Shuang is wise, too wise indeed!"

"These two guys are simply two monsters!"

"We still need some time to deal with fifth-level Spirit Puppets, but they just rush over and easily slay them with a single sword. It’s really maddening to compare with others!"

Qian Shanyun and Chi Hu now felt that instructing Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan not to take action was the most correct decision Ling Shuang had made since entering Martial Intent Mountain.

Roar——

Just then, a roar sounded from within the Spirit Puppet group in the distance.

A powerful lance aura burst forth.

"Sixth Level Spirit Puppet!"

Lin Bai turned sharply to look. The Spirit Puppet charging at him had the word "sixth-level" prominently on its mask!

In an instant, Lin Bai’s figure flashed away, creating a hundred meters distance.

Jian Ruohan, also noticing the sixth-level Spirit Puppet, immediately flew over, "Let’s join forces."

"Alright!" Lin Bai nodded.

Immediately after, Jian Ruohan and Lin Bai flanked and pounced toward the sixth-level Spirit Puppet.

A Sword Aura from Lin Bai fell, only to be effortlessly blocked by the sixth-level Spirit Puppet.

But in that instant, Jian Ruohan’s chilling Sword Qi slashed through the air, directly beheading the sixth-level Spirit Puppet!

"What! Even a sixth-level Spirit Puppet was killed in an instant!" Chi Hu once again exclaimed with widened eyes.

That was a sixth-level Spirit Puppet!

Even deep within Martial Intent Mountain, a sixth-level Spirit Puppet was considered to be quite formidable!

How could it be slain with a single sword by Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan?

Lin Bai flew up, collected the Spirit Crystal from the sixth-level Spirit Puppet, and then continued to attack other sixth-level Spirit Puppets with Jian Ruohan.

"What’s going on? Why do I have a feeling of unrest?"

As Jian Ruohan raced onward, her brows suddenly furrowed.

She slowly lifted her head to look at Lin Bai.

And when Jian Ruohan glanced over, another Spirit Puppet suddenly popped up beside Lin Bai, its mask bearing the words "Seventh-level Spirit Puppet."

"Not good! Lin Bai, be careful!" Jian Ruohan saw the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet and immediately shouted out loud.

Startled by Jian Ruohan’s voice, Lin Bai felt a chill of death converge upon him and instinctively teleported a hundred meters away.

The moment Lin Bai moved away, a Sword Aura descended, leaving a sword mark thirty feet long on the earth.

"A Seventh-level Spirit Puppet!"

Lin Bai looked in horror at the Spirit Puppet that had attacked him, realizing it had reached the level of seventh!

"A Seventh-level Spirit Puppet has appeared." Ruan Jinhui felt his heart sink; if Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan couldn’t slay this Seventh-level Spirit Puppet, it was very likely that the entire team would be annihilated by this one puppet!

"Let’s join forces and destroy him!" Jian Ruohan flew over and landed beside Lin Bai.

"Good," Lin Bai’s expression changed, and he struck with a Heaven-reaching brilliance of his sword.

The two attacked fiercely from the left and right.

But the strength of this Seventh-level Spirit Puppet was at least three times that of a Sixth-level Spirit Puppet.

Though Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan could join hands to kill a Sixth-level Spirit Puppet, facing a Seventh-level Spirit Puppet with such power, there was still too much disparity in their strength, and they struggled to slay it!

Boom—

After thirty rounds, Jian Ruohan was sent flying back by the Spirit Puppet’s sword, her figure becoming blurred and seemingly on the verge of shattering!

"Ruohan, this Seventh-level Spirit Puppet is indeed tricky; it’s impossible for us to kill him in a short time, and dragging this out isn’t an option either."

"How about trying our Sword Array?"

Lin Bai looked at Jian Ruohan and suggested.

"We can," Jian Ruohan replied with a light smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai smiled faintly and quietly recited a mantra in his heart. Instantly, he felt his Spiritual Power connect with Jian Ruohan’s, their minds interlinked!

With the Sword Array in operation, Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan didn’t need to speak. They could just think of a phrase, and the other would hear it.

The Heart-sensing Sword Array whirled into action, their combined aura merging as one, unleashing a torrential force of sword intent!

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Both Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan sneered in their hearts and simultaneously assaulted the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet!

Whoosh—

Dual torrents of Sword Aura slashed down from the blades of Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, attacking the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet with overwhelming ferocity.

In a blink, the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet was slain by a single sword strike from Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan!

Slain by one sword, the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet!

What tremendous power was this!

Even a Seventh-level Warrior might struggle to do such a thing, let alone Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, who were merely Fifth-level Warriors!

After killing the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet, Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan searched the battlefield for a long while but found no other Seventh-level Spirit Puppets.

A quarter of an hour later, both Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan returned to the central area of the team.

Looking back, Lin Bai saw no more Fifth-level or Sixth-level Spirit Puppets on the battlefield and said, "The Fifth-level and Sixth-level Spirit Puppets have been slain by us; the rest of the battle is up to you all."

Lin Bai looked toward Ruan Jinhui and the others.

Only then did Lin Bai notice that Ruan Jinhui, Chi Hu, Qian Shanyun, Lu Rui, and the rest were looking at Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan as if they had seen a ghost.

Especially Ruan Jinhui, who had been worrying that if Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan couldn’t kill the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet, the puppet would surely annihilate Lin Bai completely soon after!

But who would have imagined, in just an instant, the Seventh-level Spirit Puppet was slain by a single sword strike from Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan!

This left Ruan Jinhui incredibly shocked!

"Just now, Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan’s powers merged into one... That was the might of the Heart-sensing Sword Array!" After being stunned for a long while, Ruan Jinhui mumbled to himself in disbelief.
