The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2943 - 2918: Boundless Darkness!
Previously on The Unparalleled Sword Emperor...
The Blood Robe Sect, Qingshan Tribe, and White Cloud Tribe—these three powerful factions began to clash at the entrance. In an instant, divine powers and martial techniques displayed their grandeur, blood flowing like rivers, corpses strewn everywhere.
When Lin Bai arrived at the scene, he saw that Yang Zhi from the Qingshan Tribe, Bai Kun from the White Cloud Tribe, along with the Blood Robe Sect Master, had already led many strong ones into the Cave Mansion.
"What treasures are hidden here that make these three powerful factions fight so fiercely?" Ye Suxin stood beside Lin Bai, eyes full of curiosity, looking at Lin Bai and asked.
Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "Go inside and have a look."
"Lin Ye!"
Lin Bai softly called out.
Lin Ye, who had been standing behind Lin Bai, suddenly stepped forward. With his natural divine power, he swung his large sleeve and pushed aside the crowd fighting at the entrance.
Lin Bai then led Ye Suxin inside.
Following closely, Lin Ye stepped forward.
In the Cave Mansion, it was pitch black, but the Blood Robe Sect Master, Bai Kun, Yang Zhi, and others who entered first had already vanished at the end of the passageway.
Lin Bai, Ye Suxin, and Lin Ye slowly proceeded forward and soon reached the end of the passageway.
There they discovered that at the end of this passageway, along with nine other passageways, it was still pitch black, one couldn’t see anything.
"Nine passageways?" Ye Suxin’s eyes flashed, "I wonder which passageway those who went in before us took, as they have now disappeared!"
Lin Bai said, "It seems we can only rely on ourselves, let’s choose a passageway and go in!"
Speaking, Lin Bai approached the nine passageways, examined them carefully but found no anomalies, they were all forged exactly the same.
"Since they’re all the same, let’s choose one at random!" Ye Suxin also examined carefully, then said to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai nodded slightly and chose the first passageway on the left, leading Ye Suxin and Lin Ye inside.
Upon entering the passageway, Lin Bai felt a strange breeze blowing against his face.
This caused Lin Bai to frown.
"Strange..."
Lin Bai murmured softly.
Ye Suxin asked curiously, "What’s wrong?"
Lin Bai said, "Suxin, did you notice? Although this passageway is not far from the entrance, we can’t hear the deafening sounds of battle that were at the entrance here in Heaven and Earth Peak!"
"Not only that, the passageways within Heaven and Earth Peak are frighteningly eerie!"
Lin Bai’s eyes wandered as he spoke.
Hearing Lin Bai’s words, Ye Suxin suddenly realized and nodded, "Indeed, it’s as if Heaven and Earth Peak is isolated from the outside world!"
Lin Bai said, "There’s a formation here!"
Ye Suxin nodded slightly; surely, there must be some kind of formation here, which is blocking the outside sounds and events.
"Let’s go!"
Lin Bai and the others continued forward.
At this moment, Lin Bai was curious about what kind of treasures were here that seemed so strange!
As Lin Bai and the others stepped forward a few steps, Ye Suxin suddenly cried out, "Lin Bai, did you hear something?"
Lin Bai stopped, his face calm, listened carefully, and said, "No, did you hear something?"
Ye Suxin frowned, "Did I hear wrong?"
"It seems someone is talking to me?"
Lin Bai said, "Maybe it’s the wind; the wind here seems very strong and strange!"
"Let’s go, be careful."
Lin Bai said lightly.
The further they walked, the darker it became for Lin Bai.
This darkness made it difficult for Lin Bai to see the stone walls on both sides.
It was as if no matter how dazzling the glow, it couldn’t dispel this darkness.
Ye Suxin tightly followed behind Lin Bai.
Suddenly, Ye Suxin cried out in surprise, "Lin Bai, did you hear it?"
Lin Bai turned back, "Hear what?"
Ye Suxin said seriously, "Someone is talking to me!"
Lin Bai frowned, looked at the pitch-black surroundings, shook his head and said, "All I hear is this strange wind, nothing else!"
Ye Suxin exclaimed, "Am I the only one who can hear it?"
Lin Bai asked, "What is he saying to you?"
Ye Suxin shook her head slowly, "Can’t hear clearly, the voice seems ethereal, intermittent, can’t hear what he’s saying at all!"
Lin Bai frowned.
Why could only Ye Suxin hear that strange voice, while Lin Bai couldn’t hear anything?
At this moment.
Lin Ye suddenly shouted, "Ah!"
Lin Bai and Ye Suxin hurriedly looked at Lin Ye, seeing Lin Ye’s whole body energized, eyes filled with killing intent looking ahead.
Ye Suxin asked, "Lin Bai, what’s happening with Lin Ye?"
Lin Bai looked at Lin Ye’s posture, expressionless, turned back to the front, and whispered, "Lin Ye sensed danger, and now he’s defending!"
"Be careful, something seems to be coming at us!"
Lin Bai looked ahead into the pitch-black darkness.
At this moment, a cold wind blew in Lin Bai’s face.
As the wind blew to Lin Bai’s face, he saw a creature leap out from the darkness...
Its fur was entirely pitch black, and its eyes were pitch black too, as if it was one with the darkness!
Upon seeing it, Lin Bai’s mind moved, and two flying swords instantly slashed forward.
Yet that creature quickly dodged.
Lin Bai’s two flying swords pierced into the darkness, losing their connection with Lin Bai.
Lin Bai couldn’t sense the existence of the flying swords.
"Hm? What’s going on?" Lin Bai said in disbelief.
Whiz... whiz... whiz...
The eerie winds howled, and the creature reappeared in front of Lin Bai.
At this moment, Lin Bai saw clearly, it was a cat entirely pitch black, full of spirit, eyes fierce, squatting in the darkness staring at Lin Bai.
"Lin Bai..."
Then, from behind Lin Bai came Ye Suxin’s call.
Lin Bai turned to look, and saw Ye Suxin, who was originally close behind him, suddenly drift away in the darkness.
Ye Suxin desperately ran towards Lin Bai, but she seemed unable to cross the distance between them.
The more she ran, the farther she got from Lin Bai.
"Ye Suxin!"
Lin Bai’s face was anxious, he urgently utilized the Great Sun Chasing Skill, rushing towards Ye Suxin.
However, no matter how hard Lin Bai tried, he couldn’t get close to Ye Suxin. He could only watch her fade away, gradually disappearing into the darkness.
Not just Ye Suxin, even Lin Ye was pulled away from Lin Bai by the darkness.
In an instant, Lin Ye and Ye Suxin vanished into the darkness, leaving only Lin Bai behind.
At this moment, the stone walls on both sides of the passage seemed to have vanished from Lin Bai’s presence.
Lin Bai was completely engulfed by the endless darkness.
"What on earth is going on?" Lin Bai stopped, his expression somewhat aghast.
"My two flying swords disappeared into the darkness after leaving my hand. Although I can barely sense their location, they feel miles away, unable to return to me!"
"Now even Ye Suxin and Lin Ye are taken away by some mysterious force from my side!"
"What is this place?"
Lin Bai stood in the darkness, his body cold, eyes looking around.
At this moment, Lin Bai felt as if he had been abandoned by the world, forgotten, standing alone in the darkness, forever without daylight!
