The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2637 - 2612: Mark of Cultivation

"Help me kill him, help me kill him, help me retrieve my cultivation!"

The diminutive Wending Realm Warrior persisted in yelling toward the towering one.

Finally comprehending the shift, the tall Warrior shot a frosty glance at Lin Bai and demanded, "Kid, what did you do to him?"

Lin Bai sneered mockingly, "I just borrowed a bit of his power, that’s all!"

Right then, Lin Bai gazed inward, spotting in his Dantian a mark akin to a Divine Elixir next to the Five Elements Divine Pill—this mark had formed from the short Warrior’s Wending Realm cultivation!

"Let me test this out, to confirm if the Devouring God Martial Soul Secret Skill holds such immense might!"

With a mere thought, Lin Bai halted the power flow from the Five Elements Divine Pill, as a torrent of energy from the cultivation mark swiftly flooded his entire body!

Right then, Lin Bai’s cultivation exploded into a monumental shift.

From the Death Reversal Realm Seventh Layer before, his cultivation skyrocketed straight to the First Level of the Wending Realm!

Lin Bai gripped his fist tightly, a flash of wild excitement crossing his face as he grinned, "So this is the might of the First Level of the Wending Realm? Truly far superior to the Death Reversal Realm!"

Horror gripped the tall Warrior as he stared at Lin Bai, his shock bursting forth in a cry, "Your power was at the Death Reversal Realm Seventh Layer moments ago—how did it surge to the First Level of the Wending Realm all of a sudden?"

Having acclimated to the Wending Realm strength coursing through him, Lin Bai lifted his eyes toward the tall Warrior.

Now, Lin Bai perceived that the tall Warrior’s Wending Realm cultivation stood as solidly as the short one’s—both firmly at the First Level of the Wending Realm!

"Sword’s Arrival!"

Gazing at the tall Warrior, Lin Bai uttered with a chilling smirk.

The Demonic Sword dropped to the earth, then shot upward in an instant, settling perfectly into Lin Bai’s grasp.

Clutching the Demonic Sword, Lin Bai advanced steadily on the tall Warrior.

The tall Warrior snarled coldly, "Whatever trick you pulled on the short one, your death is certain today!"

With those words, the tall Warrior unleashed his Wending Realm power in a rush, his form blurring into trails of Waning Shadow as he charged headlong at Lin Bai.

His face twisted in savagery, poised to land a devastating strike that would leave Lin Bai crippled!

Yet in that instant, a icy grin spread across Lin Bai’s lips, "Seeking death!"

As he declared it, Lin Bai swung his sword high, unleashing a colossal Heaven-reaching Sword Aura that cleaved downward.

Boom——

The Sword Aura ripped across the expanse, splintering the Cloud Sky, slamming into the tall Warrior and hurling him airborne with a single stroke!

With a squelch!

A gush of blood erupted from the tall Warrior’s mouth, his form hurtling back over hundreds of meters, eyes wide with dread at Lin Bai!

"How is this possible!"

Panic overwhelmed the tall Warrior.

He refused to accept being blasted back by just one of Lin Bai’s sword blows!

"Die!" In a flash, Lin Bai dashed forward at the tall Warrior, his lethal sword thrusting viciously toward the throat.

"Not good!" The tall Warrior bellowed, hastily channeling his Spiritual Power into a defensive barrier while roaring, "I am a true strong one of the Wending Realm!"

"Even if you use evil means to gain Wending Realm power, it’s just external force!"

"You absolutely cannot kill me!"

The tall Warrior declared with icy defiance.

"Is that so?" Lin Bai scoffed contemptuously, his sword descending, the unparalleled razor-sharp Sword Aura shredding every defense around the tall Warrior, piercing straight to the throat!

One sword impaling the throat, blood spraying wildly!

"This..." Even as Lin Bai’s sword transfixed his throat, utter disbelief lingered on the tall Warrior’s face.

Lin Bai yanked back his blade, and the tall Warrior crumpled lifeless to the ground.

A Wending Realm powerhouse perished by Lin Bai’s hand!

And right after slaying him, countless fissures appeared on the cultivation mark within Lin Bai’s Dantian, on the verge of crumbling apart!

Lin Bai spotted the fractures on the cultivation mark but dismissed them entirely!

Having felled the tall Warrior, Lin Bai spun around and strode toward the short Warrior.

"You took my cultivation..." The short Warrior stared at Lin Bai in disbelief, murmuring, "How is this possible? No cultivation technique exists that can steal a Warrior’s cultivation by force..."

"Unless..."

"Unless you possess the most heinous... Demonic Martial Soul!"

Those who reach the Wending Realm through cultivation are no idiots.

Such an eerie and unfathomable technique swiftly guided the short Warrior to a horrifying conclusion.

The Demonic Martial Soul—it had to be the fearsome power of the Demonic Martial Soul!

"Thank you for your cultivation power; I will make good use of it." Lin Bai declared coldly.

Bursting into wild laughter, the short Warrior shouted, "Hahaha, hahaha! No thanks needed, no thanks at all! I’ll be waiting for you along the Netherworld Path—I’m certain you’ll join me shortly!"

"Demonic Martial Soul, Demonic Martial Soul! The world rejects its overwhelming power. The instant you reveal your Martial Soul, everyone under Heaven will chase you relentlessly—you’ll have no escape!"

The short Warrior cackled madly.

Lin Bai remained expressionless as his sword descended, slaying the short Warrior under its edge!

Gazing at the short Warrior’s body, Lin Bai uttered coldly, "I understand the horrors of the Demonic Martial Soul far better than you do!"

Having eliminated these two Wending Realm powerhouses, Lin Bai approached Lan Yuxin.

Right then, the cultivation mark within Lin Bai’s Dantian faded, causing his cultivation to drop back to the Death Reversal Realm Seventh Layer.

"Lin Bai, you..." Lan Yuxin stared at him in horror.

Lan Yuxin had witnessed every single event that unfolded just moments ago.

She had seen Lin Bai abruptly advance to the Death Reversal Realm Seventh Layer!

She had also observed how Lin Bai suddenly gained the power of the Wending Realm First Level!

She watched as Lin Bai butchered those two Wending Realm Warriors.

Yet these occurrences defied all logic and reason.

As he pulled Lan Yuxin into his arms, Lin Bai said icily, "Don’t pry too deeply! I’ll take you into Heavenly Destiny Pass to recover!"

Clutching Lan Yuxin, Lin Bai dashed straight into Heavenly Destiny Pass!

Resting against Lin Bai’s chest, Lan Yuxin held back her questions since he’d told her not to ask further.

Lan Yuxin sensed that pressing on would force Lin Bai to unveil secrets capable of unleashing turmoil beyond the East Continent Chaos!

With Lan Yuxin in his grasp, Lin Bai passed through the Nine Saints Barrier Formation and reentered Heavenly Destiny Pass.

"Your wounds are grave—stay here in Heavenly Destiny Pass, rest properly, and heal up!"

"The fights outside are ours to handle!"

Lin Bai stated calmly.

Lan Yuxin gazed at Lin Bai and urged, "Stay safe!"

With a slight nod, Lin Bai set Lan Yuxin down, then spun around and exited Heavenly Destiny Pass once more, heading back to the battlefield!

In that instant, Lin Bai’s return to the battlefield resembled the comeback of a divine slayer...
