The Unparalleled Sword Emperor-Chapter 2473 - 2448: The Imminent Powerful Foe!

Lin Bai was repeatedly shaken back several kilometers by the sound waves from the Short Flute, continuously coughing up blood, his face deathly pale!

Li Qianqian’s expression changed dramatically. It was only at this moment that she understood Lin Bai wasn’t truly intent on killing her, but aimed to deal with this Golden Skeleton Spirit.

"Lin Bai, let me help you!"

"Great Heavenly Destruction Skill!"

Li Qianqian wielded her sharp sword, preparing to charge at the Golden Skeleton Spirit.

In that instant, Lin Bai, disregarding his own injuries, rushed to Li Qianqian’s side, grabbed her by the wrist, his eyes bloodshot, and said solemnly: "Don’t waste your effort, we are not his match!"

"If we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to leave at all!"

Grabbing Li Qianqian, Lin Bai hurriedly left!

"You want to leave? This place of mine isn’t somewhere you can come and go as you please." The Golden Skeleton Spirit coldly smiled, raised the Short Flute, and a strange sound echoed forth.

In an instant, countless Bone Spirits responded to the call and charged toward Lin Bai.

One by one, the Bone Spirits piled up in front of Lin Bai and Li Qianqian, forming a towering bone wall, blocking their retreat.

"We can’t get out, we’re surrounded."

Li Qianqian looked at the towering bone walls surrounding them from all sides, her expression hardened fiercely.

Lin Bai gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Hold on to me!"

Li Qianqian was stunned and exclaimed: "What?"

Lin Bai said coldly: "Quickly, grab my waist, and I’ll take us through!"

Although Li Qianqian was somewhat terrified, she did as Lin Bai instructed, gripping tightly onto his waist with one hand.

At this moment, Lin Bai’s hand was freed.

The storage bag opened, and from it flew out a colossal object, landing in Lin Bai’s left hand.

Right hand Demonic Sword, left hand Heaven-Measuring Ruler!

"Sky-splitting Sword Skill! Mountain Splitting!"

Lin Bai suddenly lifted the Heaven-Measuring Ruler, and that grand, majestic power descended from the sky like a world collapsing, slashing furiously, as if capable of splitting a thousand mountains.

With one slash, the heavy sword had no sharp edge, yet its power was limitless.

With a thunderous boom, under the force of the Heaven-Measuring Ruler, the bone wall in front, as hard as steel, was directly shattered, with bones scattering across the sky like raindrops falling upon the earth.

"Great Sun Chasing Skill!"

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, as if two blazing suns rose within them. In that instant, Lin Bai transformed into a fiery red glow, sweeping out within a thousand meters in the blink of an eye.

Just a few breaths later, Lin Bai, with Li Qianqian, disappeared into that mountain.

"So you still have so many cards up your sleeve. I underestimated you!" The Golden Skeleton Spirit said with a smile: "But even if you’ve escaped now, what of it? You’ve merely bought yourselves a few more days of temporary survival."

"It’s time to leave this boring place."

"My troops are more or less assembled."

"It’s now time to deliver the final strike to Bone City!"

"I will personally engage in this battle!"

Watching Lin Bai and Li Qianqian flee, the Golden Skeleton Spirit showed neither worry nor surprise, maintaining a relaxed smile. Its bony feet slightly lifted, stepping forward!

As it left the mountain, countless Bone Spirits emerged from the shadows, marching straight toward Bone City.

These Bone Spirits, their numbers impossible to count, could be a hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, or a million... it was unknown, only a densely packed mass of white bones could be seen, enough to chill the heart!

In this sea of white bones, the Golden Skeleton Spirit stood out exceptionally!

...

Rushing out of the mountain, Lin Bai’s face was pale.

"Pft!" Lin Bai spat out a mouthful of blood, glanced back, and seeing that he was far away from that region now, he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Return to Bone City."

Lin Bai’s eyes were bloodshot, filled with urgency.

Li Qianqian looked back and, not seeing the Golden Skeleton Spirit pursuing, said: "We must now find Li Zhaoxing and Li Le; otherwise, they remain unaware that the Death Rebellion Army Corps is all at the Bone Tomb..."

Lin Bai gritted his teeth and said: "Return to Bone City!"

Li Qianqian asked: "If we go back now, it would be of no avail."

Lin Bai coldly replied: "Return to Bone City and have everyone evacuate! Bone City... cannot be defended!"

Li Qianqian was taken aback, thought for a while, and said: "Although we know now someone is orchestrating from behind the scenes, our Li Family has deep foundations, and it may not be impossible to contend with this person!"

"Our Li Family has many strong ones too."

Hearing this, Lin Bai scoffed with disdain: "Haha!"

Li Qianqian said discontentedly: "Lin Bai, what do you mean?"

Lin Bai coldly retorted: "You don’t understand how powerful the enemy your Li Family is about to face is... it’s not an existence you can challenge!"

"If you refuse to leave Bone City, I won’t accompany you to your deaths."

After saying that, Lin Bai turned around, ready to return to Bone City and use the teleportation array to leave.

Seeing Lin Bai so serious, Li Qianqian hurriedly caught up, asking: "Lin Bai, who exactly is the Golden Skeleton Spirit? Why are you so afraid of it?"

Lin Bai earnestly looked at Li Qianqian and said: "Li Qianqian, I’m telling you seriously, if he wants to leave the Bone Withering Secret Realm, he certainly can!"

"If he wants to destroy Bone City, he certainly can!"

"His capability is beyond our imagination!"

Lin Bai said with utmost solemnity.

Li Qianqian asked: "Then what should we do?"

Lin Bai coldly replied: "The only solution now is for all Li Family martial artists to immediately evacuate the Bone Withering Secret Realm, and then have the Li Family’s strong ones completely seal it off."

"Delay as much as possible!"

"Until the Li Family is prepared to face this opponent!"

"This is the only way!"

"Let’s head back to Bone City first!"

Lin Bai said determinedly.

On the way, Lin Bai and Li Qianqian both fell into silence.

When they were about to reach Bone City, Li Qianqian finally spoke: "With just the two of us, no proof at all, convincing Senior Li Guai to have all the martial artists leave the Bone Withering Secret Realm is nearly impossible!"

"Even I, myself, don’t quite believe your words."

Li Qianqian said with a low voice.

Lin Bai remained silent for a long time before saying: "Then you can only stay and wait to die."

"I’m not from the Li Family; coming to the Li Family, I received their hospitality. What I should say, I will say; what I should do, I will do, but as to whether you believe me or not, there’s nothing I can do."

Li Qianqian looked at Lin Bai and asked: "Lin Bai, why are you so sure we can’t resist them?"

Lin Bai smiled faintly and said: "Perhaps, as he said... we were born as kings!"

"Being a king means not being confined by this cage!"

Lin Bai’s gaze was icy cold.

No martial artist under heaven understood the power of the Demonic Martial Soul better than Lin Bai.

Whether it was the "Essence of Fire" encountered in the Shenwu Kingdom or Lin Bai’s own "Devouring Sword Spirit," the power of such a Demonic Martial Soul was beyond the heavens!
