Chapter 1278 Battle Across Mountains and Valleys
Before Yun Qingbai’s voice faded, he had already vanished from sight.
Shua!
Almost at the same time, Lin Xun leapt onto the back of the big black bird and commanded, “Chase!”
The big black bird rolled his eyes. This bastard is treating me like his horse and but he was not a steed…
But he also knew that an opportunity flew by quickly, so they must not have any delay, disappearing in an instant like a black lightning.
When it came to speed and escaping skills, he put even Lin Xun to shame.
As soon as they came out of Stupa Tower, Lin Xun spotted Yun Qingbai’s fleeing figure shuttling in and out of the bone mountains in the distance. His speed was terrifying.
“Faster!”
Lin Xun’s black eyes were as fierce as lightning. If he missed this good chance to kill Yun Qingbai, then he might never have another one again.
Boom!
In midair, long after the big black bird sped past, a long and narrow gap split the void with an ear-splitting, explosive noise.
The speed of light was faster than the speed of sound.
Although the big black bird’s speed could not be compared with teleportation, it was not much different.
Very quickly, they were closing in on Yun Qingbai!
Shua!
Lin Xun, who had long been accumulating strength and ready to strike, took action without any hesitation. The Broken Blade slashed through the air once again.
Silent Emptiness Slash!
Among the Heavenly Yuan Six Slashes, the destructive power of the Silent Emptiness Slash might not be as strong as the Birth Destruction Slash or the Impermanence Slash, but it was unquestionably the fastest.
With a pff, a jet of blood shot out from Yun Qingbai, and he was left with a bone-deep scar on his shoulder.
However, he never looked back once, nor was his speed affected. On the contrary, he fled faster and faster as though unaware of the injury.
What a chilling sight!
His state of mind had to be incredibly steady and tenacious. Even when escaping, he showed not a flicker of panic.
Moreover, rays of sword light circulated him like fish roaming around in a protective stance.
They were akin to the wings of a bright and sharp sword!
Bang!
When the Broken Blade slashed out again, the rays of sword light began to swirl like whirlpools and with unceasing sounds of collision, countered the power of the Broken Blade little by little.
Most unbelievably, the impact propelled Yun Qingbai further away and accelerated his speed.
However, Lin Xun sharply sensed Yun Qingbai had trembled from the force. Obviously, his situation was not pleasant at all!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lin Xun tried to follow up with another blow, only to be repeatedly blocked by the dense whirlpool of sword qi.
Even if he tore down one, a new whirlpool of sword qi would take its place like it would never end.
With one party fleeing and the other giving chase, they left the Stupa Tower area and left the Stupa Brahma Land...
In the sky, the sword qi left behind a long trail like a streak of rainbow, and clouds popped like bubbles wherever it passed.
And behind it, the big black bird was relentlessly chasing after it like a flash of black lightning!
“That’s—?”
“What a frightening aura! Only a longevity giant would possess such powers!”
“Who is dueling up there?”
Countless experts were alarmed and broke into an uproar. However, when they looked up into the sky, the shadows of both parties were long gone.
Only visible cracks remained where the two sped past. The lingering aura made many people turn ashen-faced.
“Why do I feel that the aura belongs to Yun Qingbai?”
Some sharp-sighted experts could not help but gasp out loud, bewildered by their discovery.
Everything that happened today was the greatest shame and embarrassment to him. For the first time in his life, he was about to go berserk.
He said nothing else.
Once I escape, I swear I am going to retaliate tenfold, a hundredfold in the future!
……
The pursuit had been ongoing for three hours.
They crossed mountains and rivers, fought across the high altitude of the sky and passed thousands of miles.
They also set off countless commotions and uproars along the way.
The big black bird was gasping for breath and on the brink of exhaustion.
Lin Xun was not much better. He had administered several strikes and each one was with full power.
Now, he had depleted his physical strength.
But Yun Qingbai’s condition was the worst of them all!
His clothes were torn and soaked with bright red blood, and bloody scars criss-crossed his slender body like a web.
Even one of his arms had been severed.
If anyone else sustained such horrible injuries, they likely would not be alive anymore.
This showed how terrifying and difficult to deal with Yun Qingbai was.
If Lin Xun allowed an opponent like him to escape, then he did not know when he would have another chance to kill him.
“Look, you are barely holding on.” Yun Qingbai suddenly spoke aloud, his voice calm as always.
Lin Xun inhaled deeply, a cold light flashing in his black eyes.
The next moment, his index finger pointed upwards like a sword, and all the power in him roared to the sword finger like a tide.
An indescribable aura of terror quietly spread outwards.
This side of the world seemed to be quaking and wailing!
Shua!
The sword finger jabbed in midair.
A slash of sword qi flooded the universe instantly, cutting through the longitude and latitude. It seemed to contain endless mysteries but was also imbued with a sense of simplicity like returning to nature.
In the distance, Yun Qingbai’s face blanched, and he struggled to maintain his calm.
He sensed imminent danger!
The slash of sword qi was incomparably sharp, unrestrained and powerful. Even ghosts and demons would dart to one side at the sight of the sword. It seemed capable of splitting apart heaven and earth.
The sword was called No Escape!
This is bad.
As an unrivaled swordsman, Yun Qingbai’s mastery in swordsmanship had long reached an earthshaking level. How would he not sense the terror of the sword?
Without hesitation, he gritted his teeth and activated his own life-protection means.
Clang!
A scabbard drifted into the air, glowing a deep golden shade. A red rope was twisted around it and a tear stain was marked on its surface.
As soon as the scabbard appeared, a faint sigh was echoing within it.
Boom!
At the same time, Lin Xun’s sword qi was coming down fast, but the scabbard bloomed with splendid light and amazingly blocked the sword.
Yun Qingbai breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second, his expression drastically changed. The scabbard was blasted away with a boom, and the mighty sword qi fiercely advanced...
“So aggressive!”
Suddenly, the aura around Yun Qingbai soared in power, and he completely unleashed his strength, ignoring his internal injuries.
An streak of unparalleled sword intent swept out from his sword.
Boom!
The two sword qi clashed head on and sent a shudder through the universe, as though it was being wiped out.
