The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 230: Chapter 229: Cultivation in the Luoyan Mountain Range
Not only was Lin Bai shocked by the power of the Qingge Sword.
The surrounding warriors, too, were so surprised that they couldn’t say a word for a long time.
Lin Bai’s face regained its calm as he approached Zhu Ziling.
Zhu Ziling’s chest bone was shattered by Lin Bai and his internal organs were nearly pierced by the sword aura. He was lying on the ground, his blood forming a small river.
"You, you, what are you doing!"
Zhu Ziling looked at Lin Bai with fear in his face.
Now with a Sixth Grade Spirit Tool, Lin Bai’s strength had increased significantly.
Even Zhu Ziling, a master of the Heaven Martial Realm First Layer, was very fearful of him.
"Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, Lin Bai, I was wrong, please spare my life, could you."
"Lin Bai, as long as you spare me, I can be your servant."
"I’ll be your slave, just as long as you don’t kill me, I’ll do whatever you want."
Zhu Ziling saw Lin Bai approaching with an indifferent look on his face and thought Lin Bai was going to kill him.
But Lin Bai walked directly to Zhu Ziling’s side, picked up the Roaming Sword, and said with a somewhat desolate look, "A treasure sword’s best fate is to find a good master."
"Unfortunately, you chose the wrong master."
"Go back."
Lin Bai casually tossed the Roaming Sword, into a sword aura that shot straight towards Sword Tomb Mountain.
With Lin Bai’s help, the Roaming Sword was once again free, flying back to Sword Tomb Mountain and embedding in the mountainside, waiting for its new master to arrive.
Seeing the Roaming Sword flying back, Lin Bai revealed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
In an instant, Lin Bai turned his head back and looked at Zhu Ziling.
"Don’t worry, I won’t kill you!"
"But you, you are completely unworthy to use a sword!"
As Lin Bai uttered the last word, his gaze turned cold, and with a wave of the Qingge Sword, the sword light slashed at Zhu Ziling’s wrist before he could even react.
There was a sound of blood spurting out.
"Ahhh——" Immediately after, a shrill scream from Zhu Ziling echoed around.
"Severing your meridians is a lesson for you!"
Having finished speaking, Lin Bai, without taking a second glance at Zhu Ziling, walked straight out of Sword Tomb Mountain.
Although he severed Zhu Ziling’s meridians, Lin Bai did not kill him. Even though his meridians were severed, Zhu Ziling’s status in the Spirit Sword Sect guaranteed enough spiritual stones to buy him miraculous elixirs to help reconstruct his meridians.
However, even if his meridians were to be rebuilt, he wouldn’t be able to hold a sword for half a year, his combat capabilities nearly dropping to zero.
Lin Bai and Zhu Ziling did not have deep-seated enmity.
Lin Bai just couldn’t stand him treating a sword that wanted to follow him so cruelly, so he took action out of a sense of justice.
Lijian Xing left Sword Tomb Mountain with Lin Bai.
"Lin Bai, I am here, on the orders of the Second Elder, to tell you that a quota for the Imperial Hunting Garden has already been reserved for you. In ten days, someone will be sent to notify you to gather on Ceyun Peak with the other disciples before heading to the Imperial Palace."
Lijian Xing said, walking alongside Lin Bai.
"I see, thank you." Lin Bai responded with a smile.
With the quota for the Imperial Hunting Garden, Lin Bai was one step closer to the Thousand Years Spirit Medicine.
Lijian Xing warned, "Lin Bai, if you are going to participate in the Imperial Hunting Garden, you must be careful, then it will be a fierce battle between the disciples from the Four Major Sects, the royal family of Shenwu Kingdom, and the warriors of Shenwu Kingdom. Slight carelessness can lead to great danger."
"These people, they are mostly masters of the First, Second, and Third Layers of the Heaven Martial Realm."
"And your cultivation level is still not high enough."
Lijian Xing worriedly expressed his concerns to Lin Bai.
"Really? So, the Imperial Hunting Garden every year is a contest between the First to Third Layers of the Heaven Martial Realm?" Lin Bai curiously asked.
"Yes, the rules set by the royal family of Shenwu Kingdom state that only warriors with a bone age of less than twenty are eligible to participate in the Imperial Hunting Garden."
"In their twenties, warriors, even those with a bit of talent, could cultivate to the first layer of the Heaven Martial Realm. The more powerful ones could cultivate to the third layer of the Heaven Martial Realm!"
"In every year’s Imperial Hunting Garden, there are few experts who can reach the fourth layer of the Heaven Martial Realm."
"Therefore, I’m very worried about you. After all, your cultivation is only at the eighth level of the Earth Martial Realm. I wonder how you can manage to fight against experts at the third layer of the Heaven Martial Realm."
Lijian Xing said solemnly.
"Haha, Sword Star, thank you for your concern, you can rest assured. Since I’m going to the Imperial Hunting Garden, I must be prepared," Lin Bai laughingly said.
"Take good care of yourself," Lijian Xing said.
"Hmm."
Lin Bai responded and, after chatting casually for a bit longer with Lijian Xing, the two parted ways.
"If the Imperial Hunting Garden is a battlefield full of experts at the Heaven Martial Realm, my cultivation at the Earth Martial Realm indeed seems low."
"But now, I already have the strength to defeat Zhu Ziling, a warrior at the first layer of the Heaven Martial Realm. Even if I face opponents at the second layer of the Heaven Martial Realm, I am not entirely without the possibility of winning!"
"The challenge would be facing experts at the third layer of the Heaven Martial Realm."
As Lin Bai walked along the road, he was lost deep in his thoughts.
Upon his return to White Cloud Peak,
Lin Bai gripped the Qingge Sword firmly and began a dance within the courtyard.
Having just received the Qingge Sword, Lin Bai needed some time to get in sync with it.
After three days of intensive sword practice in the courtyard, Lin Bai got up and left White Cloud Peak again.
"There are still some demon beasts of the Heaven Martial Realm in the Luoyan Mountain... It’s just the right time for me to hunt down these beasts and elevate my cultivation to the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm while becoming more in tune with the Qingge Sword."
Laughing to himself, Lin Bai set foot on the Luoyan Mountain.
Three days later!
Sounds of earth-shaking, furious roars echoed through the Luoyan Mountain.
This was the furious roar of a king monster from the Luoyan Mountain!
At this moment, many warriors practicing martial arts in the Luoyan Mountain, upon hearing these roars, shouted in surprise, "Oh my God, isn’t this the outraged roar of the Purple-Eyed Blood Lion Beast, a beast at the first layer of the Heaven Martial Realm?"
"Listening to this roar, it seems like the last desperate howl before death!"
Not long after, many warriors entered the territory of the Purple-Eyed Blood Lion Beast with extreme caution; only to find this king monster of Luoyan Mountain already fallen on the ground, dead beyond any doubt.
As everyone gathered closer, they discovered that.
Not only was the Purple-Eyed Blood Lion Beast dead, but every drop of its Demon Blood had also been drained!
"Who killed the Purple-Eyed Blood Lion Beast!"
At this moment, the same thought emerged among all warriors in the Luoyan Mountain.
The warriors who came to Luoyan Mountain for experience were mostly in the Earth Martial Realm and Xuanwu Realm, and those in the Heaven Martial Realm, disdained to practice here.
Which of these Xuanwu Realm and Earth Martial Realm warriors could possess the ability to kill the Purple-Eyed Blood Lion Beast?
A day later.
Another king monster in the Luoyan Mountain let out a tragic scream and fell to the ground never to rise again.
The same as before, the Monster Blood of this beast had also been mysteriously drained.
Six days later!
In these six days, every moment of the Luoyan Mountain had been filled with the fury roar of king monsters.
And when all the warriors rushed over, none found who had killed them. What they only saw was the bone-dry corpses lying on the ground.
After a full ten days.
In the Luoyan Mountain, over a hundred king monsters had almost completely been slaughtered. Few beasts that managed to escape had gone far away from Luoyan Mountain.
Without exception, every drop of Demon Blood from each of the king monsters had been sucked dry.
It was as if all was done by a blood-sucking monster!
