Chapter 268 - Forty Percent Sword Intent
Chapter 268 of "Inverse Sword Mad God" starts unfolding: Mu Rong, a disciple of the Mu family, escaped from the valley and returned to... Discover more!
Mu Rong, a disciple of the Mu family, escaped from the valley and returned to the Futu Sect.
Half a day later, the news that Lin Xuan had slain members of the Star Peak Pavilion and Mu Yi shocked everyone on the Floating Island.
The most infuriated among them was the Mu family; the strongest expert of the Star Peak Pavilion had been slaughtered, and those who remained had no hope of defeating Lin Xuan.
However, experts from the Mu family were still around, and moreover, Mu Chen had entered the Futu Sect.
That day, news came from within the Futu Sect.
The Mu family was going all out in their pursuit to kill Lin Xuan, calling on other forces to join the chase.
For a while, they indeed gathered a group of people.
But these people didn’t act rashly; they knew Lin Xuan was powerful, capable of even killing Half-step Melt Spirit experts, so any hasty action on their part would be ineffective.
“Lin Xuan wants the remaining treasures, he’ll definitely return to the Futu Sect, we just need to lay out the Heaven and Earth Net here, and wait at ease!”
These people began setting up arrays near the Futu Sect.
Thousands of miles away, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged on a giant rock, starting to sort through his Storage Ring.
People like Meng Yan were elite disciples from Great Sects with extremely rich possessions, the most important of which were their life-saving items.
Meng Yan’s Xuan-grade top-quality treasure, a lance whose quality even surpassed the Autumn Trace Sword; it was a pity that Lin Xuan didn’t use lances, but he could sell it for a good price!
Another piece, a dark red, shattered armor, was extremely hard; this thing could even block the Undying Sword Intent, so it must be extraordinary.
He wore the damaged armor close to his body, protecting his vital parts.
Besides that, there were Fang Qiming’s Star Stones and Mu Yi’s Mountain and River Painting.
Lin Xuan had re-refined these items, inscribing his soul mark on them.
Up to now, Lin Xuan’s wealth had flourished, and he now had the capital to compete with top martial artists.
The Mu family disciple had escaped; it seems the news of my slaying those people has also gotten out.
These people haven’t come after me; they must be preparing secretly.
Lin Xuan pondered continuously; to retrieve what belonged to him, he would definitely go to the Futu Sect, and these people were likely to be waiting there for him.
He was well aware that once he appeared, a fierce battle awaited him.
“It seems I need to boost my strength a little more!” Lin Xuan thought of the Sword Intent Treasure Box.
Taking out the Red Flame Greatsword, he activated the third rune on it, forming a sealing array.
Holding the Sword Intent Treasure Box, Lin Xuan took a deep breath and then slowly opened it.
A trembling aura emerged, and Lin Xuan closed his eyes to sense and comprehend carefully.
Danger and opportunity coexisted; Lin Xuan risked his life to comprehend Sword Intent and finally made another breakthrough, achieving fourfold Sword Intent.
“It’s time to set off!”
With a flicker, Lin Xuan left the place.
The Futu Sect, nearly a kilometer high, exuded an aura of ancientness.
“Damn, why hasn’t that kid shown up yet?”
“What are you in a rush for, just wait a bit longer!”
No, if we wait another day and he still doesn’t show, I’m entering the Futu Sect!
Some martial artists were clearly growing impatient.
However, just as they were getting restless, a figure approached rapidly in the distance.
“A white monkey, could it be that the kid surnamed Lin has arrived?”
“Wearing a black robe, his face is unclear, but that monkey is unmistakable!” someone whispered softly, “Everyone, be alert, get ready to move!”
Eekee-eekee!
The Snow White Monkey sat on the Black Robed Man, its large eyes like black gems constantly moving.
Inside the black robe was not Lin Xuan, but the Green Slave.
From a great distance, the Lord of Wine detected that the arrays set up by those people were out of the ordinary.
“That’s an array called the Heaven and Earth Net, very formidable; Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artists can fully wield it to annihilate true Soul Fusion Realm Experts.”
Lin Xuan’s face darkened; if not for the Lord of Wine, he might have really attempted to Break the Array.
Otherwise, death would likely await him!
For safety, Lin Xuan had the Green Slave disguise as him, with the Snow White Monkey following.
“He’s almost here, everyone get ready!” those hidden in the shadows grew excited; once Lin Xuan entered, they were sure to make it a one-way trip for him!
Swoosh!
The Snow White Monkey vanished in a flash, while Green Slave was fully immersed within the Array.
“Activate!”
Boom!
Dozens of silhouettes flickered into action, starting to engage the Array, and Green Slave let out a terrifying scream.
The Snow White Monkey returned to Lin Xuan’s side and quickly burrowed into the Storage Ring.
Lin Xuan sneered, donned a purple robe, and swiftly made his way toward the Futu Sect.
Ahead, the battle was fierce; nobody paid any attention to the others.
And so, Lin Xuan walked boldly into the Futu Sect in plain sight of everyone.
On the dark red ground, a sense of desolation emanated as if it had been this way for ten thousand years.
Whoosh!
Swoosh!
Suddenly, ripples appeared in the sky above the land, the space continuously twisting into a small vortex.
Swoosh!
A silhouette landed, kicking up a cloud of dust.
“What a vast, desolate place!” This figure was none other than Lin Xuan, who heaved a sigh as he looked around.
To think that there was another world beyond the Futu Sect—such a technique was indeed astonishing!
Huff, huff!
A few more silhouettes entered, landing on the ground in a somewhat disheveled state.
Lin Xuan tightened his purple robe, concealing his entire figure within it; he did not want to reveal himself just yet.
Sure enough, those people just glanced at Lin Xuan with surprise and hurriedly left.
“Little Xuanzi, see if you can sense anything with the stone token?” Lord of Wine asked.
Lin Xuan nodded, gripping the stone token to sense carefully, and indeed, he felt a beckoning aura.
“It’s this way!” He tapped his foot and flew off.
It had to be said that this land was utterly desolate; apart from some weeds, hardly any living things could be seen.
Crack, crack!
A pile of bones on the ground suddenly started to shake violently, forming several white skeletons.
Huff, huff!
The white Bone Claws fiercely descended, even shattering the void.
Lin Xuan quickly dodged, his face showing a trace of shock.
“These must be Martial Artists who died in the past, with at least the Cultivation of the Spirit Sea Seventh Layer Heaven, plus the environment here makes these deceased creatures even more terrifying!” explained Lord of Wine.
Lin Xuan understood and then threw a punch.
Boom!
The fierce power instantly scattered three white skeletons, but their bones did not break; they simply fell apart.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan was amazed; he hadn’t expected these white bones to be so hard.
However, now was not the time to study these things; Lin Xuan performed the Reverse Dragon Step, quickly flickering past.
Swoosh!
A gigantic Bone Claw, spanning over a dozen meters, burst from the ground, reaching for Lin Xuan.
The air trembled, as if being torn apart, issuing a shrill scream akin to a wailing ghost, terrifying in its intensity.
“Get lost!”
Lin Xuan pointed his fingers like a sword, slashing behind him.
A cold light appeared, and the tremendous Sword Qi, like a dazzling milky way hanging upside down from the Nine Heavens, radiated a fearsome presence.
Boom!
The huge white Bone Claw remained undaunted and ferociously slapped down toward the fierce Sword Intent.
Clang!
Clang!
Sparks flew in the air, the white Bone Claw trembled, and a deep rumbling growl came from the ground.
