The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2753 - 2728: Final Battle! (5 Updates)
Previously on The Unparalleled Sword Emperor...
Enraged, Zhaosi Yuan commanded the Zhao Family's forces to utterly destroy the Qian Family.
Swiftly, more than eight hundred warriors from the Zhao Family surged forth, engaging in a fierce battle with the Qian Family's combatants.
Amidst the Zhao Family's ranks, a man clad in blue robes softly shook his head. "I believe I've deduced the truth. It appears that youth was actually framed. He slept with the matriarch of the Zhao Family, Zhaosi Yuan and Zhaosi Yun's mother!"
"And the mastermind behind this scheme seems to be a warrior from the Qian Family!"
"Ah!"
"Your circle is quite tangled!"
The blue-robed man gestured again, "Zhaosi Yuan, Zhaosi Yun, inform me when you desire my intervention!"
This man in blue harbored no interest in participating, content to observe the unfolding events from the sidelines.
Concurrently, Lin Bai remained seated upon the stone stele, refraining from any involvement.
If the warriors of the Qian and Zhao Families wished for a preliminary clash, it perfectly aligned with Lin Bai's intentions.
"Slaughter!"
"Annihilate!"
Combatants from both families engaged each other with desperate ferocity!
Qian Ruyu exclaimed in indignant rage at Zhaosi Yuan, "Zhaosi Yuan, have you lost your mind? The Commander Flag is directly ahead, yet you forgo it to attack our Qian Family?"
Zhaosi Yuan scoffed, "It matters not; I shall deal with you eventually. Whether I eliminate you now or later changes little!"
"Once I have eradicated your Qian Family and the Zhou Family, the Commander Flag will inevitably belong to my Zhao Family anyway!"
Zhaosi Yuan was brimming with absolute certainty.
His lineage, the Zhao Family, stood as the most formidable clan in Black Water City.
Furthermore, for this Dragon City Battle, the Zhao Family had extended an invitation to that enigmatic blue-robed man.
Even if the Zhao Family found themselves in a precarious position, with the blue-robed man as their silent guardian, Zhaosi Yuan remained convinced that the Dragon City Battle would culminate in a glorious triumph for the Zhao Family!
Upon hearing this declaration, Qian Ruyu spat curses, "Since your Zhao Family yearns for conflict, my Qian Family shall not cower before you!"
The two powerful families engaged in a brutal confrontation within the confines of Dragon City.
Thousands of cultivators at the peak of the Death Reversal Realm battled with unbridled fury.
Meanwhile, Lin Bai observed the relentless combat between the two families from his vantage point atop the stone stele, his expression impassive. Simultaneously, any warrior who inadvertently strayed into Lin Bai's hundred-meter exclusionary zone was instantly put to death!
The Zhao Family and the Qian Family commenced their savage exchange.
Warriors of the Zhou Family, including Zhoutian Hao, erupted in laughter. "So it was the Qian Family orchestrating all this trouble. I was wondering how Tang Yang dared to sleep with the Zhao family matriarch!"
"Heh, this is perfect; the ongoing battle between the Qian and Zhao Family forces significantly reduces the obstacles for us Zhou Family!"
"This presents an ideal opportunity for us to seize the Commander Flag!"
Zhoutian Hao smirked faintly, shifting his gaze towards the Commander Flag positioned near Tang Yuezhi.
"Secure the Commander Flag!"
Zhoutian Hao issued his command to the Zhou Family's warriors.
Without hesitation, the Zhou Family's forces launched a direct assault toward the stone stele.
Lin Bai, who had been calmly observing the clash between the Zhao and Qian Family warriors, felt his expression harden as he noticed the approaching Zhou Family contingent. His flying swords and demonic blade materialized, his eyes fixed with lethal intent on the advancing Zhou Family warriors.
Every single Zhou Family warrior who breached Lin Bai's hundred-meter zone of control met a swift end by his blade!
In mere moments, hundreds of combatants perished under Lin Bai's merciless onslaught.
Zhoutian Hao gasped in stunned disbelief, "This individual wields such terrifying power! Senior Cai Chi, time is of the essence; we cannot afford further delay. I implore you to make your move!"
Zhoutian Hao earnestly pleaded with Cai Chi, who stood beside him.
Cai Chi chuckled heartily, "Very well, I too am eager to test the mettle of this sword cultivator!"
With those words, Cai Chi strode forward, advancing directly toward Lin Bai.
He unleashed a distant punch, a strike that visibly distorted the very void, hurtling towards Lin Bai.
Lin Bai was forcefully repelled a full seven steps, after which he raised his eyes to meet Cai Chi's gaze.
Cai Chi remarked coldly, "Youngster, your swordsmanship is undeniably impressive, but how many of my punches can you endure?"
Lin Bai offered a disdainful smile in reply, "I am aware of my sword's excellence, but your fist techniques present a formidable challenge. I, in turn, question how many of your strikes you can withstand against my swordplay!"
As he spoke, Lin Bai ascended into the air, his twin flying swords darting forward to engage Cai Chi.
The flying swords, gleaming with deadly sharpness, descended in a swift arc, aimed directly at Cai Chi's face.
Simultaneously, Lin Bai followed hot on their heels, thrusting his demonic sword with lethal precision towards Cai Chi's chest.
"Begone!" Cai Chi roared, unleashing immense power. He batted away two incoming flying swords with a single punch, but in that same instant, Lin Bai’s demonic sword found its mark.
With a resounding crash.
Lin Bai’s blade struck Cai Chi, sending him reeling back a hundred meters.
In that moment, Cai Chi keenly felt the overwhelming might of Lin Bai’s strength.
Cai Chi’s expression then turned grave as he swiftly withdrew armor and a long spear from his storage bag.
Clad in his battle attire and wielding the long spear, Cai Chi appeared utterly formidable, resembling a divine general poised for battle.
"Heh!" Cai Chi gripped his long spear with both hands, lunging forward to deliver a fierce thrust at Lin Bai.
The spear thrust was incredibly swift, reaching Lin Bai in the blink of an eye. It gave Lin Bai no time to react, striking directly upon his sword’s blade.
BOOM——
A thunderous sound reverberated through the air.
"Heaven Slayer Sword Drawing Skill!" With an explosive surge, Lin Bai unleashed a furious slash, his formidable sword aura crashing towards Cai Chi.
Cai Chi’s eyes widened in shock. He sensed an unprecedented, life-or-death crisis emanating from that sword strike. However, he was no ordinary opponent. He immediately drew upon his cultivation skill and divine power, resisting with all his might.
BANG BANG BANG——
A rapid succession of intense clashes echoed ceaselessly in the sky.
Lin Bai landed three consecutive blows, throwing Cai Chi into complete disarray. His armor was now covered in numerous sword marks.
Cai Chi spat out a mouthful of blood, his body retreating a hundred meters in a pathetic state. He looked at Lin Bai with terror, thinking, "This person’s sword skill is unbelievably potent!"
"Someone possessing such sword mastery must surely be no ordinary individual. Could he be a descendant of the Sword God Family?"
A startling conjecture formed within Cai Chi’s mind.
Such a powerful sword skill, on the entirety of the Northern Continent, could only originate from one place: the Sword God Family!
Observing the intense duel between Lin Bai and Cai Chi from the periphery, the man in blue robes’ eyes gleamed. He remarked with a calm demeanor, "This individual’s sword skills are truly impressive. Even within the Sword God Family, they would be considered exceptionally high!"
"If that Imperial Guard Commander from the Lounan Dynasty insists on continuing direct confrontations with him, it will not take more than three techniques for him to become a mere ghost beneath this sword!"
The blue-robed man stated his assessment plainly.
Cai Chi seemed to develop a sense of apprehension, hesitating to press the attack.
Seizing the moment, Lin Bai advanced, surging towards Cai Chi, his sword’s edge thrusting out like an attacking dragon.
Cai Chi immediately questioned, "Do you hail from the Sword God Family?"
Lin Bai responded with a sneer, "Go to hell and ask Yama yourself!"
This sword strike was imbued with Lin Bai’s killing intent, clearly intended to be the final blow against Cai Chi.
Grinding his teeth, Cai Chi desperately circulated his spiritual power, attempting to withstand Lin Bai’s decisive sword strike.
But as the sword descended, its terrifying power overwhelmed Cai Chi’s defenses, instantly tearing through all his protective measures. The blade continued its path, striking his armor and piercing directly through his heart!
Cai Chi coughed up blood, glancing down at the sword marks etched into his armor. A sudden, chilling terror flickered in his eyes.
Recalling the earlier exchanges with Lin Bai, Cai Chi realized that Lin Bai had inflicted numerous sword marks upon his armor throughout their duel. The area bearing the most severe marks was precisely his chest!
"So, you had meticulously planned this fatal blow all along!" Cai Chi collapsed helplessly to the ground. At the very moment of his demise, he finally understood that every action had been part of Lin Bai’s grand strategy.
Lin Bai regarded the fallen Cai Chi with an expressionless gaze.
During the earlier stages of his confrontation with Cai Chi, Lin Bai’s seemingly reckless assaults were, in fact, a deliberate display of order within chaos. Lin Bai had systematically targeted Cai Chi’s chest with several strikes, all in preparation for this ultimate, fatal sword thrust!
This was because Lin Bai had already discerned that Cai Chi’s armor possessed extraordinary defensive capabilities, making it exceedingly difficult for even his demonic sword to penetrate with ease.
