45 -45: Slaying the True Martial Realm Demon Beast

“Xu Shangjie, Xu Shangjie is in a valley one mile away, besieging a Demon Beast from the True Martial Realm.”

The man clearly relayed this to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked back: “One mile away, fine, Xu Shangjie, here I come.”

As Lin Bai relaxed his guard, the man’s eyes revealed a cunning smirk, he quickly took out a hidden weapon and shot it out.

“Hahaha, go to hell, Lin Bai, the ten thousand spirit stones are mine.”

“Humph, do you really think I couldn’t see through your little tricks?”

Lin Bai abruptly turned around and sliced the hidden weapon with his sword.

Upon seeing that Lin Bai could block the hidden weapon, the man knew he was in trouble.

He was just about to continue begging for mercy.

Lin Bai decisively cut him down with his sword, slaying him.

“I didn’t want to kill you, but you insisted on seeking death.”

Lin Bai put his sword away and quickly ran toward the valley one mile away.

Soon, Lin Bai arrived above the valley.

Within the valley, more than fifty warriors were besieging a giant lizard.

“The Lizard King of Earth Fire!”

Lin Bai saw the lizard, its body was red all over, eyes filled with rage and its mouth spewing fierce flames.

The flames and cultivation of the True Martial Realm scorched many warriors to death.

“Go, go, whoever goes, I’ll give a hundred spirit stones!”

“Everyone get on it.”

Xu Shangjie roared furiously at the warriors beside him.

A hundred spirit stones for entering, the Xu Family from the Imperial Capital was certainly generous.

“A hundred spirit stones!

Damn it, I’m going for it!”

“I’m going for it too, let’s go!”

“Slaughter this lizard!”

The fifty warriors alternated their attacks, despite many warriors falling, the lizard was also full of injuries, its blood gushing.

“Hahaha, nice, let me deliver the finishing blow.”

Seeing the lizard on its last breath, Xu Shangjie suddenly burst out into laughter, pulling out a very elegant treasure sword from his waist.

A 2nd Grade Spirit Weapon!

At the sight of that treasure sword, Lin Bai’s eyes lit up.

A 2nd Grade Spirit Weapon would cost at least ten thousand spirit stones.

Lin Bai could not afford it.

“Haha, the Purple Token is mine.”

Xu Shangjie charged, laughing uproariously.

The Purple Token was equivalent to ten Common Tokens.

In theory, this was not worth much.

But Xu Shangjie didn’t see it this way.

The Purple Token was held by a True Martial Realm Demon Beast.

If Xu Shangjie could slay a True Martial Realm Demon Beast while at the Martial Arts Ninth Level, he would become famous in one fell swoop and even hold some status within the Outer Sect.

In fact, many warriors thought the same way.

Once they obtained a Purple Token, they’d essentially establish their footing in the Outer Sect of the Spirit Sword Sect and gain status.

“Haha, Xu Shangjie, I’ll take that Purple Token.”

Lin Bai suddenly made a move, leaping from the cliff and distributing tens of sword Qi, targeting Xu Shangjie.

“Lin Bai, you’re still alive!”

On seeing Lin Bai, Xu Shangjie was instantly furious.

Despite putting a bounty of ten thousand spirit stones on Lin Bai’s head, he wasn’t dead yet?

“Humph, how could I die before sending you to meet Yama!” Lin Bai sneered and, with an unstoppable force, he charged towards Xu Shangjie with his sword.

All along the way, Lin Bai’s killing intent increased dramatically, his eyes like swords, left Xu Shangjie shivering all over.

“Whoever kills Lin Bai, I’ll give ten thousand — no, twenty thousand spirit stones!”

“Twenty thousand!!”

“Twenty thousand spirit stones for his head!”

“Kill, kill Lin Bai!”

Extreme rewards beckon brave warriors.

Upon hearing they’d get twenty thousand spirit stones to kill Lin Bai, everyone instantly turned to face Lin Bai and charged at him.

“A bunch of people blinded by greed, can’t you figure out if you can kill me?

You’re just asking for death!”

With a merciless sweep of his sharp sword, Lin Bai killed all the incoming warriors.

“Xu Shangjie, come and meet your death!”

Having swiftly dispatched his troubles, Lin Bai charged towards Xu Shangjie.

Xu Shangjie had already crossed swords with Lin Bai before, and he was no match for him.

Glancing at the Lizard King he hasn’t killed yet, Xu Shangjie’s face contorted with regret, “Lin Bai, I’ll get my revenge on you!”

“Wait for it, Lin Bai.

If these common warriors can’t kill you, it doesn’t mean the Newcomer King can’t either!”

With that said, Xu Shangjie abandoned his attempt to kill the Lizard King.

He forsaken his opportunity to get a purple token and ran out of the valley in a different direction.

Despite being unable to beat Lin Bai, Xu Shangjie was fast.

To his disbelief, Lin Bai couldn’t catch up.

“You sure can run fast!”

Unable to catch up to Xu Shangjie, Lin Bai quickly turned around and returned to the valley.

As soon as he arrived, he saw the Lizard King crazily spouting flames at him.

“Wild beast, dare to act so arrogantly!”

Lin Bai was far from being as weak as Xu Shangjie.

With a swift strike, he ended the scarred Lizard King’s life, putting an end to it with a mournful wail.

Underneath the massive body of the Lizard King, Lin Bai found a purple token.

Purple, so captivating.

Next, Lin Bai unleashed his Devouring Sword Spirit, consuming all the vital energy of the Lizard King.

“I’m closer now.

I can feel the barrier of the True Martial Realm.”

Upon absorbing all of the Lizard King’s vital energy, Lin Bai exclaimed in extreme delight.

“The vital energy of a Daoist Realm Demon Beast is indeed far stronger than that of a Martial Realm Demon Beast.”

“If I kill all four Daoist Realm Demon Beasts in this place of trials, my cultivation should be able to break through to the True Martial Realm!”

Thinking about it, Lin Bai’s heart filled with a warm flame.

“These four beasts, they’re mine!”

With determination, Lin Bai ventured forth.

“Though, Daoist Realm Demon Beasts are not easy to deal with.”

“Without Xu Shangjie resorting to sacrificing hundreds of people’s lives to wear down this Lizard King of Earth Fire till the last moment.”

“It was extremely difficult to kill!”

Lin Bai took a deep breath and sprinted through the forest.

Three hours passed.

Suddenly, Lin Bai bumped into a person in the forest.

This person was clad in a black cloak, his eyes were as sharp and ruthless as those of an eagle.

In his hand, he held a sharp sword with fresh blood still dripping from it.

“No need for chit chat, let’s fight.”

Upon seeing this man, Lin Bai knew right away that he was an expert sent by Xu Shangjie.

The man looked at Lin Bai, his eyebrows knitted and then, spotting the Soul-Slaying Sword that Lin Bai had already drawn, his eyes abruptly hardened, a trace of killing intent seeping out.

Zing!

The man drew his sword and thrust it straight at Lin Bai.

The speed of his sword was extremely fast, almost catching Lin Bai by surprise.

The pupil of Lin Bai’s eye quickly expanded as the sword rapidly approached him.

“One Sword Blood Spurt!”

In response, Lin Bai drew his sword and repelled the man’s attack, sending him flying backward.

Unperturbed, the man charged towards Lin Bai again.

The two of them attacked and parried, their forest battle lasting hundreds of rounds.

After a hundred rounds, it was a stalemate between Lin Bai and him.

After two hundred rounds, it was still too close to call.

After three hundred rounds, the two were thoroughly enthralled in the fight.

“Oh my god, Lin Bai and Ye Guxing have started fighting!”

“The two Newcomer Kings are fighting.”

“This is going to be good.

Both Lin Bai and Ye Guxing are sword masters.”

“Ye Guxing once obliterated thirty-two strong ones with a single sword.”

“Lin Bai also once defeated Xu Shangjie with a single sword.”

“That’s what a Newcomer King’s strength is.”
