Lord Gu Daozhi wrapped his spiritual power around Gu Jianfeng and whisked him away from the martial arts stage. But at that mont, Lin Bai’s face twisted into ferocity, and two flying swords flashed lightning-quick, piercing through Gu Jianfeng’s dantian and divine elixir before Lord Gu Daozhi could even react!
A lifeti of cultivation, completely destroyed!
Even Lord Gu Daozhi failed to anticipate Lin Bai’s bold move.
Lord Gu Daozhi never expected that Lin Bai would still have the audacity to strike against Gu Jianfeng after his intervention.
Furthermore, Lord Gu Daozhi never imagined that the two flying swords would be so swift; by the ti he reacted, it was already too late.
"Is your na Lin Bai?"
"You... very well... very well..."
Seeing Gu Jianfeng already ruined, Lord Gu Daozhi did not take him away. Releasing his spiritual power, Gu Jianfeng fell to the ground, unconscious.
Then, Lord Gu Daozhi’s eyes flickered open and shut, a hint of killing intent gradually erging.
However, at this mont, Lord Gu Daozhi refrained from attacking Lin Bai. After all, Lin Bai was correct; this place is the Tianfu Secret Realm, where junior disciples compete for the position of Quasi Holy Son. As a distinguished clan leader of the Gu Family of the Eastern Courtyard and an elder of the Order Divine Court, he couldn’t stoop to bullying the young.
"Lin Bai really destroyed Gu Jianfeng!"
"Even after Lord Gu Daozhi’s intervention, Lin Bai still ruined Gu Jianfeng..."
"This..."
The warriors present were dumbstruck, montarily speechless.
Even Lan Yunbai and Lan Qingshui’s faces showed a hint of astonishnt.
At this mont, Lin Bai stood upon the martial arts stage, where threads of earthy smoke gathered in front of him, transforming into an earthy-colored token.
This is the Mountain Climbing Order!
Holding the token, Lin Bai walked straight off the martial arts stage.
Below the stage, Lin Bai ignored everyone, found a secluded place, sat cross-legged, and retrieved an Earth Mystery Elixir from his storage bag, quickly healing his internal injuries and restoring his spiritual power.
After all, Lin Bai still had another battle ahead!
Ji Yun and Qin Tang watched Lin Bai sit cross-legged from a distance, saying nothing.
Lan Yunbai and Lan Qingshui initially wanted to approach Lin Bai, but seeing him healing, they decided not to disturb him.
The battle of sword cultivators concluded with Lin Bai destroying Gu Jianfeng.
This epic battle, after the Tianfu Secret Realm concludes, will spread like wildfire across the Dongzhou Academy and the vast territory of Dongzhou!
anwhile, the martial arts stage was restored, and the competitions continued.
Three days later, Lin Bai’s injuries had mostly healed.
Lin Bai opened his eyes and looked around, realizing that the warriors beneath Divine Peak were now scarce.
Qin Tang, Gu Lingqi, and others were already gone.
"Lin Bai, have your injuries healed?" At this mont, Lan Yunbai supported Lan Qingshui as they walked over, looking at Lin Bai and asking.
Lin Bai nodded slightly: "Approximately eighty percent healed. There are fewer warriors here now."
Lan Qingshui replied with a pale face: "During your healing ti, Qin Tang has already passed the Divine Peak’s trial and entered the Spirit Pool atop Divine Peak, and likewise, Gu Lingqi has passed!"
Lan Yunbai said: "Their injuries were smaller than yours, so they didn’t need as much ti to heal. Especially Qin Tang, no one was willing to fight him once he stood on the martial arts stage!"
Lin Bai nodded: "I understand."
"How many warriors have beco quasi holy sons now?"
Lan Yunbai replied: "Many obtained the mountain climbing order, but only two have beco quasi holy sons: Gu Lingqi and Qin Tang. If Ji Yun hadn’t advanced to the Death Reversal Realm, he would likely have beco a quasi holy son too!"
Lin Bai nodded: "Since that’s the case, I won’t linger."
"The Tianfu Secret Realm is only open for a month; several days have already passed. Now that I’m heading to Divine Peak, I still have more than half a month to cultivate in the Spirit Pool..."
Lin Bai speculated to himself.
"Alright, Lin Bai, you’ll be ascending Divine Peak now. There are quasi holy sons at the end of all eight paths; if you encounter soone like our Southern Yard’s quasi holy son, such as Lan Yuxin Sister or Senior Brother Wang Qing, it might be best."
"They probably won’t purposely make things difficult for you."
"But if you et the Eastern Courtyard’s quasi holy sons, they watched as you ruined Gu Jianfeng; they may want to please the Ancient Clan by retaliating bloodily against you, so it’s best not to encounter them!"
Lan Qingshui said aningfully.
"Let’s hope so." Lin Bai subtly rose, turning away to ascend Divine Peak.
At this mont, the warriors beneath Divine Peak all turned to watch Lin Bai ascend.
"Lin Bai is ascending Divine Peak!"
"I wonder which quasi holy son he will encounter?"
"If Lin Bai ets the Eastern Courtyard’s quasi holy sons, his life might be at risk!"
"Indeed, those Eastern Courtyard quasi holy sons are eager to kill Lin Bai and curry favor with the Gu Family."
Each warrior watched Lin Bai’s back, speaking hopefully.
Lin Bai walked up the staircase, where eight paths diverged in front of him, each leading in a different direction.
At the end of each path, there was a quasi holy son.
Every two hours, the quasi holy sons’ locations shift, so currently, no one knows which quasi holy son is guarding the end of the paths!
"Whatever happens." Lin Bai imdiately headed for the leftmost white jade staircase, walking up without looking back.
Warriors beneath Divine Peak followed Lin Bai with their gazes until he disappeared at the staircase’s end!
Lin Bai took step after step, consuming half an hour before reaching the end of the white jade staircase.
At the end stood a young man in a blue long robe, smiling as he watched Lin Bai approach, under a banyan tree.
Lin Bai looked up from afar, frowned, and said: "Wang Qing..."
Lin Bai stepped forward, arriving under the banyan tree, looking at the smiling young man—none other than one of Southern Yard’s five quasi holy sons, Wang Qing!
This man and Lin Bai once had so enmity in the Divine Demon Secret Realm.
Lin Bai rembered him as a complete hypocrite, a sanctimonious scoundrel!
"Junior Brother Lin Bai, there are eight paths on this mountain climbing journey, yet you chose mine; it seems this is destiny..." Wang Qing looked at Lin Bai approaching and grinned.
For so reason, Lin Bai found Wang Qing’s smile cruel.
"I must admire Junior Brother Lin Bai’s skills; you’ve been at Dongzhou Academy less than a year and have reached the quasi holy son’s position, yet you’ve also provoked Li Jiuge and the Ancient Clan of the Eastern Courtyard!"
"Impressive!"
Wang Qing’s smile remained fixed.
