The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1537: Chapter 1534: Condensing Qi to Control the Sword!
Gao Rui instantly became furious, his voice cold as he said, "Dongfang, what do you mean by that?"
Lin Bai shook his head and replied, "Although Lu Ao's words were quite sharp, I don't think you intended to take his life with just one strike."
Gao Rui replied coldly, "Both Song Zi and Lu Ao are of Perfect Yin Saint Realm in cultivation. Song Zi's strike was not very strong at all, she merely wanted to teach Lu Ao a lesson and tell him to watch his mouth!"
"Is that so?" Lin Bai said with a slight smile, turning to look at Song Zi.
How strong Song Zi's palm strike really was, only Lin Bai knew clearly.
To other warriors, it indeed appeared that Song Zi's palm strike wasn't very powerful, but the moment Lin Bai crossed hands with Song Zi, he immediately felt the hidden force within that palm, capable of killing a warrior of the Perfect Yin Saint Realm.
Leaning on Gao Rui's back, Song Zi looked towards Lin Bai, her eyes containing a slight chill, "Big Brother Gao Rui..."
"Alright, I know, I will handle this matter for you," Gao Rui said firmly.
"Dongfang, I'm asking you one more time, will you step aside or not!" Gao Rui demanded coldly.
"No, I will not. What are you going to do about it?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"Then you're seeking death!" Gao Rui's face turned cold, and immediately, he raised his Treasure Sword, aiming a thrust at Lin Bai's face.
"Brother Dongfang, be careful."
Lu Ao and Fang Jin immediately shouted in concern.
Seeing Gao Rui's sword strike coming, Lin Bai slightly lifted his finger and pressed forward heavily; a terrifying force burst forth from Lin Bai's fingertip, blocking Gao Rui's sword.
"If I'm not mistaken, you must have cultivated some kind of Finger Technique. Otherwise, how could you possibly stop my sword with just the power of your spiritual force!" Gao Rui said with a sneer at the moment.
Lin Bai simply shrugged nonchalantly, giving no direct answer to Gao Rui.
If Gao Rui really knew that Lin Bai had blocked his sword just with spiritual power, he probably would have been furious!
"Lucky enough to block my one sword, do you really think you can be lawless? I've said before, in a life-and-death battle, within ten moves, I can kill you!"
"Today, I will show you that my words are not empty!"
Gao Rui's eyes flashed with a chilling light.
Suddenly, Gao Rui's Sword Skill changed dramatically, and a flurry of sword blossoms lit up in mid-air, the razor-sharp Sword Aura aiming straight at Lin Bai's chest.
This flurry of Sword Aura attacked from all directions, sealing off all of Lin Bai's surroundings, plunging him into an inescapable predicament!
"My goodness, is this the Sword Skill of the True Martial Sword Sect? It's indeed formidable."
"Just this one sword has forced Dongfang into a desperate situation!"
"So powerful, Gao Rui!"
Many of the spectating warriors around expressed their surprise.
Lu Ao and Fang Jin's faces showed some concern!
"Heh, do you remember that I also once told you, in a life-and-death fight, within three moves, I could kill you first!"
"If you don't believe it, let's try it out!"
Surrounded by Gao Rui's sharp Sword Aura and caught in a desperate situation, Lin Bai was not in the slightest hurry, instead, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Lin Bai clenched his right hand's fingers to form a sword, and a Sword Aura instantly condensed.
The Sword Intention instantly spread out as the Sword Aura took shape.
"Slice!"
Lin Bai swung the formed Sword Aura, striking down fiercely; the sharp Sword Aura directly shattered Gao Rui's flurry of Sword Aura!
Boom—
A deafening explosion erupted in mid-air.
"What!" Gao Rui saw his signature technique shattered by Lin Bai's sword, and disbelief colored his face.
This set of sword skills is the high-level technique of the True Martial Sword Sect, extraordinary and not common. How could it be so easily countered by Lin Bai?
The Sword Aura from Gao Rui was shattered in an instant, and the Aurora Realm unfurled.
In a flash of his figure and sword light, the air sword in Lin Bai's hand thrust straight towards Gao Rui's throat.
Should this sword strike true, it would certainly slay Gao Rui!
"Not good!" Song Zi saw Lin Bai's sword about to kill Gao Rui and immediately a surprise flickered in her eyes. She covertly flipped her palm, and an invisible force shattered Lin Bai's air sword, saving Gao Rui!
Song Zi didn't want Gao Rui to die now, as he was a Core Disciple of the True Martial Sword Sect and counted as quite a master on the Lingnan Continent.
Song Zi secretly smashed Lin Bai's air sword.
Meanwhile, the Sword Intention in Lin Bai's strike, which seemed to dominate all living beings, forced Gao Rui back more than ten steps, his complexion deathly pale. When he steadied himself, his face was filled with utter terror.
"Brother Gao Rui, are you alright?" Song Zi quickly came up to support Gao Rui's arm, essentially pulling him back, to prevent him from continuing the fight against Lin Bai.
Gao Rui said coldly, "I'm fine. I was just careless just now, but next time I'll show my true skill!"
"Brother Dongfang, if I don't kill you today, then my surname isn't Gao!"
Gao Rui said with a face filled with malevolence, as a surge of strength emanated emanated from him.
Song Zi quickly pulled on Gao Rui, saying, "Brother Gao Rui, let's just drop it. We're all Martial Guardians. Why make everyone unhappy over such a trifle?"
"Besides, Song Zi joined the Spirit Boat halfway through the journey; it's normal for some Martial Guardians to be displeased."
"I've calmed down now anyway, Brother Gao Rui, let's just forget about it."
Song Zi softly spoke to Gao Rui.
"How could that be alright! I must make them pay a bloody price today!" Gao Rui's eyes once again turned bloodshot, looking as though he was about to rush and fight Lin Bai to the death.
Song Zi cursed inwardly.
Gao Rui did not realize that if Song Zi hadn't shattered Lin Bai's air sword just a moment ago, Lin Bai would have killed him.
Just when Song Zi was about unable to restrain Gao Rui any longer, Housekeeper Zhuo Yi appeared on the deck, and shouted coldly, "What are you doing?"
Seeing Housekeeper Zhuo Yi's arrival, Gao Rui's bloodshot eyes regained some sanity, and he cupped his fists, saying, "Housekeeper Zhuo Yi, this Brother Dongfang is too disrespectful, verbally injurious, and I was about to teach him a lesson."
Lin Bai let out a light chuckle, "As heaven and earth are my witness, I did not speak offensively."
Lu Ao said with a grin, "It was me who insulted, Gao Rui. You mad dog, you've bitten the wrong person."
Gao Rui's eyes reddened once more with rage, glaring at Lu Ao and Lin Bai with murderous intent.
"What a mess." Housekeeper Zhuo Yi said coldly, "Stop causing a scene. We're almost at Wuji Mountain. After we get over Wuji Mountain, we'll be entering the territory of Haizhen City. Everyone get your spirits up."
"If I find out any more of you fighting privately, none of you will be getting your rewards."
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi said coldly.
Hearing this, Gao Rui had no choice but to give up.
The other Martial Guardians watching the commotion also dispersed.
Gao Rui coldly said to Lin Bai and Lu Ao, "You two, just wait. Once we reach Haizhen City and leave the Spirit Boat, I will make sure you both bleed out on the spot!"
"Forgive my bluntness, but you don't have the strength for that." Lin Bai scoffed disdainfully and turned to enter the cabin.
Song Zi's beautiful eyes followed Lin Bai's retreating back, her gaze strange, contemplating something.
