The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 3012 - 2987: Victor! Lin Bai! (5 Updates)

Two flying swords, one on the left and one on the right, attacked Yan Ji.

Lin Bai gripped the wooden sword and charged from the front.

Yan Ji determined that Lin Bai intended to use the two flying swords to draw his attention, while the truly fatal move was the wooden sword in front of him.

Therefore, after easily dodging the two flying swords, Yan Ji faced Lin Bai’s wooden sword head-on.

At that moment, the corner of Lin Bai’s mouth curled into a cold smile, as if his sinister plan had succeeded.

"Hm?" Seeing the smile on Lin Bai’s lips, Yan Ji felt a chill in his heart, a bad feeling rising, as he thought in horror: "He’s smiling?"

"Why is he smiling?"

"Could it be... that the two flying swords are his real killing move? And the wooden sword is merely a decoy?"

Distracted for an instant, Yan Ji glanced at the flying swords on both sides.

And in that fleeting moment, Lin Bai’s wooden sword reached him, the blade’s edge pressing against Yan Ji’s throat.

With this sword attacking, Yan Ji felt cold all over, as if his very soul had been pierced by Lin Bai’s sword!

If Lin Bai intended to kill Yan Ji, this sword could have pierced Yan Ji’s throat in one strike!

"You lost!" Lin Bai said with a light chuckle.

Yan Ji was stunned, staring blankly back at Lin Bai, and when he lowered his head, he saw the wooden sword already an inch from his throat, sending a chill throughout his body, raising all his hairs!

"This..." For a moment, Yan Ji found it hard to accept this outcome!

Lin Bai withdrew the wooden sword, chuckling softly, "Want to fight again?"

Yan Ji shook his head woodenly, "No need, if you had wanted to kill me with that sword just now, I’d probably already be drinking soup at Naihe Bridge!"

"But I can’t figure it out, among these three swords, which one is truly your killing move!"

Curiously, Yan Ji asked Lin Bai.

In that moment just now, Yan Ji initially judged both flying swords as flaws, guessing that Lin Bai couldn’t possibly defeat him with two flying swords, thus concluding that Lin Bai’s killing move was the wooden sword in front.

But upon dodging the flying swords’ attack, he noticed the smile on Lin Bai’s lips, feeling instantly uneasy, sensing something was amiss.

In that moment of distraction, Lin Bai’s sword was already in front of him.

This also confused Yan Ji.

Which sword, indeed, was truly Lin Bai’s killing move!

Yan Ji asked, "Was it those two flying swords, or the wooden sword in your hand?"

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "All three were!"

Yan Ji was taken aback, looking at Lin Bai, eyes filled with confusion.

Lin Bai chuckled softly, "Your Guan Tian Mu can see through all flaws! But, haven’t you noticed a huge flaw in the Guan Tian Mu itself?"

Yan Ji said coldly, "Impossible! The Guan Tian Mu can see through all flaws, it absolutely cannot have flaws!"

Lin Bai laughed, "It does!"

Yan Ji asked, "What is it?"

Lin Bai looked at Yan Ji with a smile, "The Guan Tian Mu can see through all warriors’ flaws, but it cannot see through your own! That is the greatest flaw of the Guan Tian Mu!"

"It can see through the flaws in sword skills and fist techniques, but it cannot see through the flaws of the human heart!"

"In fact, in this battle, the reason I could defeat you wasn’t due to my deep understanding of swordsmanship, but because of the human heart!"

"At that moment, your heart changed, and so did mine!"

"You speculated about my heart, and I speculated about yours!"

"But the Guan Tian Mu cannot see through the human heart!"

Lin Bai laughed once.

Hearing Lin Bai’s speech, Yan Ji was dumbfounded.

"Hahaha!" After thinking for a long time, he laughed heartily three times, cupped his fists, and said, "Brother Lin Bai, I’ve been enlightened!"

"In today’s battle, Yan Ji admits defeat, convinced beyond question!"

"If I ever have the chance to spar with Brother Lin Bai again, I will show you a different Yan Ji!"

"Brother Lin Bai, the ultimate victor of today’s Life Anniversary Martial Arts Competition is you!"

"I concede!"

Yan Ji spoke loudly.

Yan Ji’s voice spread all around, reaching every warrior’s ears.

To this day, many warriors could not comprehend why Yan Ji conceded!

"What does this count for?"

"Why did Yan Ji suddenly concede?"

"This..."

Many warriors were dumbfounded.

Even Dugu Yitian, Dugu Hao, Lan Yuxin, and Li Jiuge were puzzled.

Yan Ji stepped down from the Lotus Platform, returned to his seat, and upon sitting, smiled at Lin Bai.

"Yan Ji..." Yan Long called softly: "Why did you..."

Yan Ji shook his head, "Uncle Long, say no more, I concede defeat wholeheartedly!"

"I’m not his match!"

"If he wanted to kill me, I estimate he could take my life in three moves!"

"This person’s swordsmanship is demonic, his intelligence is demonic, he can be considered a rare prodigy on this Barbaric Ancient Continent in millennia!"

Yan Ji held Lin Bai in extremely high regard in his heart.

Hearing Yan Ji’s words, Yan Long looked seriously at Lin Bai, murmuring, "Indeed, every Saint of the East Continent is not a mere talker!"

"Even if he’s been expelled from the East Continent Academy, he’s still the strongest Tianjiao of the East Continent!"

Yan Long spoke with great amazement.

With Yan Ji conceding, Lin Bai stood alone on the Lotus Platform.

And at this moment, the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures gazed at Lin Bai, slightly lost in thought.

In the heart of the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, he murmured, "Is it you? The one seeking a weapon this year is you!"

"What kind of weapon do you want me to refine that would bring about the Nine Black Death Crisis!"

As the competition came to a close, Lin Bai was the final victor, qualified to have the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures refine a weapon for him.

Before the birthday celebration, the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures divined for this weapon refining, and the hexagram revealed it to be a Nine Black Death Crisis.

Pangu Sect’s rules state, ten adheres to heaven, five blacks not refined, six blacks not kept, seven blacks escape the world, eight blacks sure death...

Lin Bai stood on the Lotus Platform, raising his head to look at the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures.

At this moment, the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures came to his senses, chuckling, "It seems this year’s first person at my birthday celebration is decided, and it is this friend Lin Bai!"

"Friend Lin Bai, as the victor of this event, I can refine a weapon for you!"

"At dawn three days from now, come to Fire Lotus Mountain and tell me the weapon you wish to be refined, and I will begin the work!"

"You can provide your own Divine Iron, but if not, I will select suitable Divine Iron for your refinement!"

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures chuckled.

Lin Bai cupped his fists and replied, "Thank you, Venerable Lord. Three days hence, I will surely visit!"

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures smiled, "Good, then you may go and rest now, the banquet is still ongoing!"

Lin Bai nodded and returned to his seat, drinking and chatting with Shangguan Cun.

The banquet continued without pause.

And as Lin Bai and Yan Ji’s victory was determined, in a corner of the Heaven and Earth Lotus, five warriors were seated.

Among these five, four sets of eyes glared at Lin Bai with hostility.

Only one dark-skinned warrior, upon seeing Lin Bai, couldn’t help but say, "So it’s him! No wonder the master foresaw the Nine Death Crisis!"

One among them asked, "Fifth Junior Brother, do you know this person?"

These five, sure enough, were once disciples expelled by the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures: Luo Jia, the First Disciple; Chen Zhixiao, the Second Disciple; Lady Qin Xin, the Third Disciple; Nong Shuang, the Fourth Disciple; and Hu Qi, the Fifth Disciple.

Hearing Luo Jia’s query, Hu Qi answered seriously, "He is the one expelled from the East Continent Academy... Lin Bai!"

"The former Saint of the East Continent!"

Ps: Just now there was a 6.0 earthquake in Sichuan Yibin, the shock was strongly felt in Chongqing where the Emperor Sword resides!

Just ran downstairs to avoid it for over an hour before daring to come back upstairs, so the update is late, please forgive me!

Meanwhile, I wish Sichuan Yibin all the best and pray for your safety!
