The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1695: Chapter 1692: Wolf Walks A Thousand Miles!
On the Lingnan Continent, numerous significant events have unfolded over the past few months.
First, within the Stars Secret Realm, Heaven-reaching Sword Sect's Junior Sword Master, Dongfang Bai, slaughtered across all directions, nearly exterminating all the Yangshen Realm powerhouses from the Seven Major Sects within the realm!
Then, within the Nan Chu Dynasty, Dongfang Bai was surrounded and attacked by five men in black. His heart meridian was shattered, and everyone believed Lin Bai was doomed. Yet, against all odds, he survived.
Later, in the Beiyang Dynasty, one of the Four Grand Elders of the Fenxin Sect, Xuanhuo Elder, was slain by Dongfang Bai. This enraged the Fenxin Sect Master, prompting him to storm the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect overnight to demand justice.
Before the Fenxin Sect had finished taking its revenge, it was revealed on the Lingnan Continent that Dongfang Bai, in Tianxiao City, had slain both the Guardian of the Sect Supreme from Luotian Sect and a newly recruited disciple possessing an Emperor-grade Martial Soul!
The Luotian Sect, furious, stormed the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!
At Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, the combined threats from the Fenxin Sect Master and the Luotian Sect Master left the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect Master Sword Venerate with no choice but to painfully banish Dongfang Bai from the sect!
Even as the uproar surrounding Dongfang Bai's expulsion from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect had not yet calmed, word emerged from Mangshan Ridge on the Lingnan Continent that Dongfang Bai had battled and ultimately slain Yejian Jun. Thus, a Junior Sword Master of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect fell at the hands of Lin Bai!
Yet, at the very moment when every warrior across the Lingnan Continent was murmuring the name "Dongfang Bai," he had already arrived at the Yuntian Dynasty!
Feng Lei City, one of the primary cities within the Yuntian Dynasty, was a place uniquely constructed, its foundations forged of Thunderbolt Stone. The city perpetually concentrated a force of wind and thunder!
Many warriors cultivating the Realm of Comprehension of wind and thunder flocked to Feng Lei City for their training.
"Feng Lei City!"
Lin Bai flew on his sword across the skies of the Yuntian Dynasty, arriving before this city cloaked in a vast expanse of dark clouds. Within those clouds, amidst endless bolts of fearsome thunderbolts that surged and danced, Lin Bai vaguely discerned its majestic outline.
Beneath the relentless bombardments of myriad thunderbolts, a towering, ancient city stood unshaken!
This was none other than Feng Lei City!
Swooping into the city on his flying sword, Lin Bai swiftly searched within Feng Lei City according to the visions revealed by the Netherworld Compass he carried.
Finally, in the northern part of Feng Lei City, Lin Bai discovered the courtyard that matched the scene he had seen on the Netherworld Compass!
His gaze sharp, Lin Bai swiftly descended on his flying sword, charging directly into the courtyard!
Moments later, the entire courtyard erupted with a deafening roar. The violent tremor rippled across Feng Lei City, causing the entire city to quake and compelling countless strong ones to file out from their homes to investigate the commotion!
"What's happening?"
"Who's taking action in Feng Lei City?"
"Could it be a Yangshen Realm powerhouse in combat?"
Many warriors poured into the streets, all attempting to locate the site of the great battle!
Just then, a streak of blood-red light darted across the skies above Feng Lei City. Within the bloody glow was a severely injured young man, his body riddled with sword marks, fleeing desperately with gritted teeth.
Pursuing close behind the bloody figure was another young man, flying on his sword. With a rage-fueled strike, the pursuer cleaved downwards, cutting the injured figure into two halves midair!
"Who was that figure in the bloody light?"
"Wait a moment... that man behind him, flying on a sword..."
"It's Dongfang Bai! The swordsman is Dongfang Bai!"
Warriors across Feng Lei City exclaimed in astonishment.
Above the clouds, Lin Bai stood atop his flying sword. After slaying the figure in the bloody light, he quickly stored away the storage bag of the slain and gazed into the distance with cold eyes. "Six more to go!"
Without hesitation, Lin Bai's flying sword streaked briefly before he darted out of the Yuntian Dynasty!
Half a month later.
Azure Dragon Empire, New Moon City!
Rumble—
A tremendous quake erupted, and New Moon City was enveloped in an overwhelming and terrifying sword aura.
The origin of this sword aura was within the East City region.
Families of power and influence across New Moon City rushed toward the East City, only to witness a courtyard being blown apart piece by piece under a deluge of dreadful sword qi. At this moment, atop a flying sword, a figure streaked out of the city.
"Five more!"
On the flying sword, the white-clad young man's expression grew ever colder.
The same recurring scenes played out across various locations on the Lingnan Continent.
Within the Knife River Dynasty, in a certain city, a sword cultivator cleaved an individual into two halves on the spot. Rumor had it that a fierce confrontation between two unmatched sword cultivators had led to such destruction...
By the lakeshore of the Su Dynasty, blood had dyed the lake a deep red...
In the mountain ranges spanning ten thousand miles of the Zhao Royal Dynasty, fierce battles between two sword cultivators left the land shattered, killing countless demon beasts and warriors caught in the aftershocks of their battle!
Rumors also circulated across the Lingnan Continent about a flying swordsman cutting down warriors across millions of miles!
Within the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!
In the Sword Master Hall.
Sui An and Gui Jing stood at the sides of the Sect Leader Sword Venerate.
Below them, Lin Anyang and Lin Luo stood with solemn expressions.
The Sect Leader Sword Venerate rose from his seat and roared, "What is he doing? What is he doing?!"
Sui An replied, "Based on the information I received from the headquarters of Tianbao Tower, after Dongfang Bai left the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect and killed Yejian Jun in Mangshan Ridge, he went to the Yuntian Dynasty, killed one person, then proceeded to the Azure Dragon Empire, the Knife River Dynasty, the Su Dynasty, and the Zhao Royal Dynasty..."
"Every time, he killed just one person. And that person was..."
Gui Jing narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
The Sect Leader Sword Venerate's expression also grew colder.
Sui An continued, "If the information from Tianbao Tower is accurate, the people Lin Bai has been killing throughout these dynasties... all of them were Yejian Jun!"
"What?!" Lin Anyang, shocked, looked at Sui An and exclaimed, "How is that possible?! Yejian Jun was already killed by Dongfang Bai in the Stars Secret Realm!"
"And he claimed in the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect that it was merely his clone. Does that mean the one who returned to the sect back then was just another clone of Yejian Jun?!"
"How is that possible?! Creating a clone requires the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fetus, which is exceedingly rare. To find even one in the East Continent is a miraculous stroke of fortune. How could Yejian Jun possess so many clones?"
Lin Anyang said in utter disbelief.
Lin Luo, however, remained unnervingly composed, showing no surprise at the revelation of Yejian Jun's clones.
The Sect Leader Sword Venerate, his expression cold, said, "Is this why he insists on leaving the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect?"
At this moment, Gui Jing said, "Sect Leader Sword Venerate, no matter why Dongfang Bai left the sect, the fact that he is willing to traverse through several dynasties and cross millions of miles to kill Yejian Jun shows their enmity has reached an irreconcilable point."
"If Dongfang Bai doesn't annihilate all of Yejian Jun's clones, he will never relent!"
Gui Jing stated calmly.
Sui An asked, "Sect Leader Sword Venerate, should we intervene?"
The Sect Leader Sword Venerate replied, "No need. Have the Outer Sect disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect who are traveling across the Lingnan Continent keep an eye on Dongfang Bai. Report his every move to me at once!"
"As for what Dongfang Bai intends to do, we shall not interfere for now!"
"Understood." Both Sui An and Gui Jing nodded in acknowledgment.
The Sect Leader Sword Venerate's gaze grew solemn as he murmured, "I sense... that Dongfang Bai's departure from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect is merely the prelude to a grand slaughter. What he plans to do next may pit him against every warrior on the Lingnan Continent!"
