Lin Bai encounters Gou Chen, one of the Poison God Clan's Five Princes. Gou Chen reveals he knows Lin Bai is a new guest official and, despite the clan's current focus on negotiations, declares Lin Bai's trespass into the Poison Cave a capital crime. Gou Chen then unleashes a swarm of Flame Ants to trap and attack Lin Bai. Lin Bai realizes Gou Chen's true intention was to trap him and fights his way through the ants, only to be hit by a blast of fire from a giant fiery bird summoned by Gou Chen, leaving him battered in the ruins of the city.

The firebird in crimson was still circling above the ancient city.

The recent breath of fierce flames directly incinerated half of the city.

Lin Bai was struck by the flames, plummeting helplessly into the ancient city.

In the flames, Lin Bai climbed up from the ground, his body charred black, with some skin even burned.

Yet those Flame Ants seemed unaffected by the fire; instead, they became more excited, charging toward Lin Bai.

Lin Bai immediately flipped over, ignoring the injuries on his body, simultaneously wielding Three-Colored Divine Thunder and Sword Aura to annihilate the attacking Flame Ants around him.

"What kind of flame is this, so tyrannical!" As Lin Bai pondered his strategy, he looked up at the firebird circling overhead.

The firebird, with its fire-red feathers, was exceptionally beautiful.

But when Lin Bai looked closer, he surprisingly found no trace of life force on the firebird, seemingly a dead object.

"Dead?" Lin Bai expressed his shock.

At this moment, Gou Chen sneered coldly, stomping his foot firmly on the ground, causing the flames in the earth fire to surge up as if responding to a summons, cheerfully dancing towards Gou Chen.

In an instant, all flames in the earth fire were absorbed by Gou Chen, converging on his finger.

Lin Bai saw that Gou Chen’s finger, after absorbing the flames, became extraordinarily eerie, emitting a destructive aura that sent chills down Lin Bai’s spine.

"It’s over!"

"Die!"

Gou Chen sneered, extending a finger.

A fire-red divine light shot from Gou Chen’s finger, at lightning speed, striking towards Lin Bai.

Lin Bai’s eyes widened, as the Three-Colored Divine Thunder emerged from his body, two flying swords flashing out simultaneously.

With a bang.

The divine light hit Lin Bai, propelling him several hundred meters away.

Upon landing, Lin Bai lay there in a sorry state.

Gou Chen seeing Lin Bai lying on the ground believed Lin Bai was definitely dead, and sneered, saying, "I really want to see who exactly you are!"

"Which force from the Southern Continent is bold enough to send people to the Poison God Clan’s Poison Cave!"

Gou Chen walked toward Lin Bai with a smile.

When he reached Lin Bai, he was about to reach out to remove the bronze mask from Lin Bai’s face.

Suddenly.

Lin Bai’s eyes, which had been closed, opened again.

A chilling Sword Aura emanated from Lin Bai, causing Gou Chen’s hair to stand on end and a chill to surge from his feet to his head.

"Not good!" Gou Chen shouted in alarm, immediately retreating.

In the instant of his retreat, sword qi from Lin Bai struck Gou Chen’s chest, sending him flying over three hundred meters, landing on the ground and spitting out blood.

Lin Bai slowly stood up from the ground, chuckling lightly, "You’re much stronger than Xia Qiu."

Gou Chen’s face turned pale, blood at the corner of his mouth, lying on the ground, coldly watched Lin Bai and said, "I really didn’t expect you could survive my ’Heavenly Poisonous Flame Finger’.

"Heavenly Poisonous Flame Finger is the name of that finger attack, is it? Indeed, it has a divine aura,"

"But the idea of killing me with just that finger is probably far-fetched."

Lin Bai said calmly.

Gou Chen climbed up from the ground, staring at Lin Bai through gritted teeth, then glanced at the terrifying sword marks left on his chest, blood splattering, staining his white robe red, making his expression even more grim.

"I’ve changed my mind now; I won’t kill you, but I’ll capture you and torment you with thousands of poisonous beasts for countless days until you die painfully!" Gou Chen shouted through gritted teeth at Lin Bai.

"Vermilion Bird!"

Gou Chen roared.

Upon hearing Gou Chen’s call, the firebird circling mid-air let out an angry call, diving towards Lin Bai.

The firebird attacked, spitting a mouthful of flames that ravaged the city.

This time, Lin Bai learned his lesson, dodging by swiftly moving aside instead of resisting directly.

Endless fierce flames burned fiercely in the city, destroying all the pavilions atop the ancient city.

At this moment, Gou Chen stomped the ground and bit his tongue, spraying a mouthful of blood into the flames.

The fire-red flames instantly transformed into black flames, burning not just the buildings, but seemingly the earth and sky.

"Die!"

Gou Chen roared angrily, and from the black flames emerged a clawing black dragon, charging towards Lin Bai.

Simultaneously, the firebird in mid-air attacked again, spitting flames at Lin Bai.

"Vermilion Bird... ha, a mere mortal flame dares to share a name with the Divine Beast Vermilion Bird?"

"Overestimating itself!"

Lin Bai laughed coldly, glaring at the firebird in mid-air.

In this instant, the Sword Aura dispersed from Lin Bai’s body began to condense, gathering on his longsword.

"You’re right, it’s indeed time to wrap this up, too much time wasted."

Lin Bai’s eyes glowed with sharpness.

Lin Bai slashed down with his sword, executing the Zhanlong Sword Skill, eradicating the black dragon in front of him.

At the same time, Lin Bai twisted his sword, slaying at the mid-air firebird, the terrifying power of the Nine-fold Realm converging together.

With one strike, he hit the firebird, slicing off one of its wings.

The firebird let out a mournful cry and fell from mid-air in a sorry state.

"Ugh!" The firebird was severely injured by Lin Bai, and Gou Chen also spat out blood at this moment, swaying on the ground, looking terrified at Lin Bai.

Gou Chen seemed utterly shocked, not anticipating Lin Bai could strike down his Vermilion Bird with a single sword strike.

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "A namesake poison beast? I should thank you for informing me that firebird is your namesake poison beast, otherwise my victory might not have been so easy."

"This is something Xia Qiu is much smarter than you about."

"Your Cultivation Strength may be higher than Xia Qiu’s, but Xia Qiu is definitely smarter than you!"

"Remember, in your next life, never casually tell others what your namesake poison beast is!"

Lin Bai looked at the severely wounded Gou Chen, coldly sneered, taking a step forward, his longsword stabbing towards Gou Chen.

Gou Chen stood still, coldly watching Lin Bai, not asking for mercy or dodging.

Because he knew that in front of a Sword Cultivator, begging for mercy was useless.

And in his current state, avoiding Lin Bai’s sword was impossible.

All he could do was die with some dignity.

A sword of cold light pierced toward Gou Chen’s throat.

Just as Lin Bai’s sword was about to pierce through Gou Chen’s throat.

Suddenly, a rusty embroidered sword appeared before Gou Chen, blocking Lin Bai’s attack...
