Chapter 991 - 989: Stealing the Supreme Sword Technique?

Chapter 991: Chapter 989: Stealing the Supreme Sword Technique?

Thunderous booms—

A deafening roar emanated from the narrow ravine.

All the warriors standing on the side of the sheer mountain only saw a breathtaking streak of sword light that swept out, followed by the renowned masters within the Nine Courtyards of the Miracle Ridge—all perishing under that one gleam of sword light.

That one sword possessed the power to slay Demon Gods and sweep across all under Heaven!

*Puchi—*

Zhu Kun spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his figure retreating in utter disarray, tumbling to the ground in a complete state of distress, while the gem hanging around his neck turned into powder and dissipated with the wind.

Zhu Kun looked at the gemstone on his chest with lingering fear.

This gemstone, purchased at a great price, was a life-saving treasure from the hands of a high-level Artifact Refiner from the Artifact Dao Sect, capable of resisting attacks from masters of the Earth Elixir Realm.

But under Lin Bai’s single sword strike, the gemstone actually shattered.

"This sword is..."

"It’s the Supreme Sword!"

"It’s the Supreme Sword!"

Zhu Kun muttered in disbelief.

Supreme Sword! Mo Wen Sword!

The ultimate technique of the Sword Art Academy that only the deans and chief disciples of each generation had the privilege to learn—Supreme Sword!

"The second form of the Supreme Sword, Sweeping Thousands of Soldiers, I’ve seen it before from Senior Brother Murong Fei; there is absolutely no mistake, no mistake," Zhu Kun’s face became increasingly frenzied.

"How could he know the Supreme Sword!"

"Isn’t it that only the deans and chief disciples of the Sword Art Academy are qualified to learn it?"

Zhu Kun said incredulously.

This was the second time Zhu Kun had witnessed the second form of the Supreme Sword. The first time was on Martial Intent Mountain, where Zhu Kun had recognized Lin Bai’s Supreme Sword.

"I understand now!"

"He secretly learned the Supreme Sword!"

Zhu Kun had a sudden realization and his face lit up with great joy.

In the Martial World, no matter the sect or the place, secretly learning another’s skills was a major taboo. Once discovered, a disciple would hardly escape death!

"Lin Bai, you have such audacity to secretly learn the Supreme Sword!"

"Wait and see, the Elder Pavilion of the Sword Art Academy will not let you off!"

Zhu Kun turned around and roared angrily behind him.

The thousands of warriors around, upon hearing Zhu Kun’s words, all widened their eyes in fear!

"What!"

"The sword technique Lin Bai used is the prized treasure of the Sword Art Academy, the Supreme Sword?"

"No wonder it has such terrifying power, one sword strike killing so many strong ones of the Nine Courtyards of the Miracle Ridge; it turns out to be the Supreme Sword!"

"Secretly learned?"

"Haha, this Lin Bai sure has guts!"

Many warriors spoke with astonishment.

"Supreme Sword!" Upon hearing these words, Wu Qiu and Cai Yunqi both looked towards Lin Bai in horror, and even Liujing Feng was taken aback.

Each Monastery had its own prized possession.

But especially the Supreme Sword of the Sword Art Academy, its power was the greatest, feared by many.

Next to it was the Sky-covering Hand of the Fist Daoist Courtyard.

Fortunately, few were able to comprehend the Supreme Sword, so much so that for hundreds of years, no one on the Miracle Ridge had managed to fully master it.

Hence, the Supreme Sword had almost been forgotten by the warriors on the Miracle Ridge.

But the fame of the Supreme Sword still echoed among the experts at the Miracle Ridge.

Not to mention the distant past, take Murong Fei for example!

This individual had only mastered the Supreme Sword up to the third form and had already become one of the top three warriors of the Nine Courtyards of the Miracle Ridge, and there were even vague signs of him becoming the number one master of the Nine Courtyards!

And now that the Supreme Sword had reappeared in Lin Bai’s hands, how could Wu Qiu, Cai Yunqi, and Liujing Feng not feel alarmed?

Could it be that the Supreme Sword was about to make a comeback on the Miracle Ridge?

"It’s hard to believe, he actually cultivated the Second Form of the Supreme Sword!" Wu Qiu was shocked as he looked at Lin Bai, the glow in his eyes brightening by a fraction, while murderous intent subtly lurked beneath the surface.

"The Sword Art Academy already has a Murong Fei, isn’t that enough? Do we really need another one?" Cai Yunqi seethed with anger within. In terms of strength, Murong Fei had already outstripped Cai Yunqi. If Lin Bai were to master the Supreme Sword as well, then Cai Yunqi’s place on the Heroes List would likely be gone.

"This person, he cannot be allowed to live."

Liujing Feng said darkly to himself.

Rustle rustle——

In the mountain wilderness, dust billowed.

Lin Bai, carrying Ye Suxin, slowly walked out from the midst of the mountains and, upon seeing a peak-form Zhu Kun, asked perplexedly, "You’re actually not dead?"

With that previous sword strike, Lin Bai had exerted his full strength, almost enough to obliterate every living creature in these mountains.

But Zhu Kun had survived.

This surprised Lin Bai.

Why was Zhu Kun still alive?

Originally, Zhu Kun should have died under Lin Bai’s sword like Wu Qing and the others, but Zhu Kun had previously acquired a defensive treasure from the Artifact Dao Sect, capable of resisting attacks from the Earth Elixir Realm.

It was this Magical Treasure that saved Zhu Kun’s life!

"Lin Bai, just you wait. I can’t deal with you today, but the Elder Pavilion of the Sword Art Academy can!"

"Stealing the Mo Wen Sword, that is a huge taboo within the Sword Art Academy!"

"Haha, Lin Bai, it turns out you have already dug your own grave, so you might as well wait for death."

During his speech, Zhu Kun turned and transformed into a Waning Shadow, fleeing straight out of the Primordial World.

Zhu Kun now wanted to return to the Sword Art Academy and inform the Elder Pavilion about Lin Bai’s unauthorized study.

"This is bad! If the matter of the Supreme Sword gets out, I might not fear it, but it would undoubtedly cause trouble for Senior Dugu Yun," Lin Bai’s Eyes flashed with icy murderous intent.

Since Lin Bai arrived at the Miracle Ridge, whether it was Pei Ji or Dugu Yun, the Elders of the Sword Art Academy had been of great assistance to him.

Moreover, Dugu Yun had granted him the special privilege to cultivate the Supreme Sword.

If Lin Bai caused Dugu Yun trouble at this point, he would feel guilty.

"Zhu Kun! You must die!"

Lin Bai took a step forward, his Nine Rotations Sword Steps transforming into a Waning Shadow that attacked directly at Zhu Kun’s back!

But just at that moment,

Suddenly, a force crushing the Void struck towards Lin Bai’s head.

Under this power, Lin Bai felt his scalp tingle, a shadow of death looming over his heart.

Lin Bai quickly dodged to the side with an explosive flicker, retreating swiftly.

As Lin Bai retreated, this world-destroying force landed and struck a boulder. In a roar, the boulder, weighing thousands of pounds, was directly smashed into powder!

"Who?"

Lin Bai, suddenly intercepted by an expert, shouted coldly.

By this time, Zhu Kun had already fled the mountains and disappeared into the boundless Mang Gu Jungle of the Primordial World.

Now, finding him would be very difficult.

This caused Lin Bai to unavoidably feel annoyed.

But Lin Bai regained his composure and turned to look at the person who had suddenly attacked him.

A sturdy man dressed in black, his lips curled with a hint of a cold smile, appeared before Lin Bai.

"Who are you?" Lin Bai asked the man coldly.

"Since you asked, I will answer you," the man in black chuckled coldly. "Listen carefully, this name will be the last one you hear in this world!"

"My name is Long Yuan!"

"But you all like to call me... Black Dragon!"

Click!

Hearing this name, Lin Bai’s heartbeat paused for a moment.

The sudden halt in Lin Bai’s heart was not due to a fear of the man but because this target was worth 200,000 points...

Black Dragon, number one on the Bounty Rankings, with a bounty of 200,000 points!
