1166: Chapter 1164: Lin Bai, Take Care of Yourself!
Dugu Yun, whose eyes were filled with an intent to kill, looked at Lin Bai and then glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao and Jian Ruohan, chuckled lightly, “What?
Bai Xiaoxiao, Jian Ruohan, by the looks of it, do you two wish to eliminate me today to keep this secret for Lin Bai?”
Bai Xiaoxiao, with the Ghost Divine Seal flickering above her head, showed a cold expression on her face: “It’s a situation of no choice, I hope Senior Dugu Yun will understand.”
Jian Ruohan didn’t say a word, just coldly stared at Dugu Yun, his Sharp Sword in hand gleaming continuously with a cold light.
Dugu Yun spoke softly, “Every time the Demonic Martial Soul appears, it only brings a storm of Blood Rain, Lin Bai, during your journey here, have you ever counted how many people you’ve killed?”
Lin Bai responded indifferently, “The people I killed deserved to die!”
“At least until now, I haven’t recklessly killed the innocent!”
Dugu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and said, “Ah, I should have directly eliminated you here to avoid future troubles, but…
I really don’t want to see the only person who has cultivated the Supreme Sword in the past five hundred years fall like this!”
“Look after yourself, Lin Bai!”
“Remember, no matter when or where you are, no matter how safe you think the place is, don’t reveal your Demonic Martial Soul anymore!”
Dugu Yun said coldly.
Lin Bai asked with a calm expression, “Senor Dugu Yun, you have decided not to kill me?”
Dugu Yun scoffed, “If I wanted to kill you, I probably wouldn’t have given you the chance to speak so much!”
“Also, Bai Xiaoxiao, Jian Ruohan, you two kids, don’t think that just because the three of you are top talents from the Five Peaks, you can join forces to defeat me!”
“Even if I use only one hand, I am more than capable of easily killing you all!”
Dugu Yun stared at Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao and said coldly.
Lin Bai glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao and Jian Ruohan, signaling them to retract their Martial Souls and their intent to kill.
Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao looked at each other and immediately subdued their aura.
“Thank you, Senior Dugu Yun.” Lin Bai bowed with a fist.
Dugu Yun, with a look of displeasure, glanced at Lin Bai and sighed lightly: “Take care of yourself, Lin Bai, and avoid unnecessary slaughter!”
Lin Bai nodded, “Disciple understands.”
“By the way, Senior Dugu Yun, how come you are here?”
Dugu Yun looked back at the Divine Bone and spoke indifferently, “Naturally, it’s for this!”
“The Divine Bone?”
Lin Bai was puzzled.
Dugu Yun stated softly, “On the Miracle Ridge, three Sect Leader Supremes manage different areas: Ye Wuhuan oversees the Five Peaks, Zhao Longtu manages the Nine Courtyards, and although I’m also the Dean of the Sword Art Academy, my main responsibility is actually to look after the Divine Bone!”
“The Divine Bone contains unimaginable power, as you’ve seen.
A piece of Divine Bone buried in the ground can keep these Spiritual Medicines and Ores from decaying for tens of thousands of years!”
Lin Bai, suddenly understanding, said, “So that’s why!”
“Then why is there only a piece of Divine Bone here, what about the other bones?”
Dugu Yun shook his head, “I do not know.
At present, only this piece has been discovered within the Red Immortal Sect, and no other Divine Bones have been found.”
“I see,” Lin Bai nodded.
Dugu Yun said, “Since that’s the case, Lin Bai, you should leave now.
You’ve already emptied these two Treasure Mountains, so you needn’t come here again in the future.”
“Also, remember not to reveal the news about the Divine Bone, to avoid causing a major uproar on the Miracle Ridge.”
Lin Bai, with a fist in palm, said, “Disciple will bear it in mind, then disciple takes his leave now.”
After speaking, Lin Bai left the two Treasure Mountains with Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao!
Dugu Yun watched as Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan, and Bai Xiaoxiao departed, sighing deeply: “After so many years, the Demonic Martial Soul is seen again, a storm of Blood Rain is likely to stir Under Heaven once more.”
“Today, I let Lin Bai go, but I wonder if it was the right decision!”
Dugu Yun shook his head gently and disappeared from the spot with a turn of his body.
Leaving Treasure Mountain!
Jian Ruohan said softly, “Lin Bai?
Are we just leaving like this?”
Lin Bai’s face turned solemn, “I was careless this time.
I thought this place belonged to Yejian Jun, and after killing Wen Ye and Jin Liang, no one else would come here.”
“But I didn’t expect that the Divine Bone under the two Treasure Mountains controlled by Dugu Yun would be monitored by Dugu Yun himself!”
“I was too careless.”
Lin Bai’s eyes narrowed, and a cold look appeared on his face.
Bai Xiaoxiao said indifferently, “Who could have foreseen that, that the Divine Bone was actually under the watch of the Miracle Ridge!”
Lin Bai nodded, “But it doesn’t matter, no matter what Dugu Yun ultimately wants to do, with the three of us, we can’t beat Dugu Yun right now!”
“Since he let us go today, it means he won’t kill me at least for a short while!”
“Perhaps he hasn’t figured it out yet!”
“But this period of time is enough for me to get what I want on the Miracle Ridge and then leave the Miracle Ridge.”
Jian Ruohan nodded and said, “You’re right.
Now that your Demonic Martial Soul has been exposed, you can’t stay on the Miracle Ridge much longer—it’s best to leave soon.”
“Let’s go to Lingnan,” Jian Ruohan said gently.
Lin Bai nodded, “But before going to Lingnan, there are two things I must do.”
“First, defeat the Saint and meet Su Yanhua!”
“Second, seize the Creation Divine Palace!”
Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, and he returned to the Five Peaks with Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao.
Back on the Five Peaks!
Lin Bai said to Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao, “Ruohan, Xiaoxiao, I will find time to refine your Flying Swords.
Once they’re ready, I’ll let you know!”
“During this time, I will go into seclusion!”
“Xiaoxiao…”
Lin Bai turned to Bai Xiaoxiao.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled upon hearing this, “I understand, having me by your side will distract you.
I’ll go back to Grandmother’s place during this time, and besides, I also need to study the Transcendent Martial Spirit more closely!”
“And you, Miss Jian Ruohan?”
Bai Xiaoxiao then turned to Jian Ruohan and asked.
Looking at Lin Bai, Jian Ruohan said lightly, “A storm is coming.
It looks like we all need to prepare early.
I plan to train at the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield to seize the opportunity to break through to the Flying Sky Realm!”
Lin Bai nodded.
Jian Ruohan had already reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm in her cultivation, and she had no intention of challenging the Saint.
Naturally, she would not suppress her cultivation.
With the strength of the Transcendent Martial Spirit, breaking through to the Flying Sky Realm would be an easy task.
The three bade farewell, and Lin Bai returned to Feng Bo Cave!
…
At this moment, on the Fifth Peak!
Hua Yuxian returned to her residence!
The Sword Demon hurried over, looking ecstatic yet uneasy, “Saintess Your Highness, you summoned me immediately upon your return.
Is there some significant discovery?”
Hua Yuxian said ecstatically, “Sword Demon, inform the Sect Hierarch, I’ve found that item!”
“Found it?” asked the Sword Demon ecstatically.
With a joyful smile on her face, Hua Yuxian said, “Inform the Sacred Religion, start making preparations!
My Five Poison Sect has lain dormant for twenty years—twenty years of sharpening a sword—for this very battle!”
