Chapter 360: Fighting Across Realms

After arranging for Lin Bai to stay in the reception hall, Huang Yong went in to report the situation to General Nan.

Lin Bai focused his attention, wanting to eavesdrop on the conversation that followed, but the result was complete silence.

He could even hear the gurgling sound of blood flowing within his own vessels, yet he could not hear any sound from outside the room.

It must be that the room used some special means.

This was also normal.

A Tianren of the Bronze mirror is equivalent to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm; Tianren are all sharp-eared and bright-eyed, and once they circulate their Spiritual Power, they can hear sounds from twenty or thirty miles away with perfect clarity. If they did not take precautions, there would be no secrets in the world.

Before long.

A youth dressed in white robes arrived at the reception hall accompanied by Huang Yong. He had delicate features and a heroic spirit, carrying a powerful aura with him; Huang Yong, who followed behind him, looked just like a lowly little lackey.

Lin Bai could not see through his strength, and the Eye of Breaking Miasma could not discern any flaws in him either.

He simply stood there, as if he had merged with heaven and earth.

"So it really is a blank-slate Tianren." General Nan scanned Lin Bai's War God Body from top to bottom and asked, "How many days have you been born?"

"Five days." Lin Bai gave a number at random.

"Five days and you already have the cultivation of a Bronze peak; your natural aptitude is not weak!" General Nan raised his eyebrows and said with great interest, "Is the rumor that the first Tianren born from a Mother Body is gifted with extraordinary talent actually true?"

Huang Yong looked at Lin Bai with envy, his expression sour.

"Let's go, take me to see your place of birth. If a new Mother Body has truly descended, you will be a great hero of my Songshi City, and you may take whatever you wish from within the city." General Nan's tone was urgent; a Mother Body corresponds to the position of a Heavenly King, and he did not want to delay even for a moment.

Lin Bai pondered for a moment and nodded: "Alright."

"Then let's go! The Black Stone Mountain Range in the north, right?" General Nan looked at Lin Bai and asked.

Lin Bai nodded.

The next instant.

The scene before his eyes changed.

He and General Nan had already arrived above the mountain forest outside Songshi City.

……

Damn!

Flash with someone in tow.

Is this the strength of a Platinum realm Tianren?

If this guy launches a sneak attack, who could stop him?

It was fortunate he didn't bring out those disciples from the Tianren Chi; otherwise, if they encountered this guy, even if they had Law Power, they would all be finished...

Lin Bai subconsciously looked back at Songshi City behind him.

"No need to look." General Nan said, "Once we find the Mother Body, I will teach you cultivation techniques after we return. With your talent, practicing divine abilities will be as easy as turning over one's hand."

"Are we not bringing anyone else?" Lin Bai casually found an excuse.

"The fewer people who know about the Mother Body, the better." General Nan glanced at Lin Bai and said, "You lead the way, and I will take you."

This was the rhythm of being silenced!

Lin Bai saw through General Nan's intentions at a glance and probed, "After leaving the Mother Body, I was dazed and confused, and I walked in a straight line the whole way. The scenery of the mountain forest is much the same, and I might not remember the specific direction very clearly. Bringing more people would increase the chances of finding it..."

"No matter." General Nan said, "Where the Mother Body is, there must be strange phenomena; we shall just search slowly."

……

At the same time the War God Body left Songshi City with Nan Rong.

Lin Bai at the Jie Yin Dian instructed disciples like Qingyun, who had been granted Skills, to guard their stronghold well, and he flashed all the way in pursuit of the War God Body.

There was no such thing as a Mother Body; a battle with General Nan was inevitable, and furthermore, he could not see through Nan Rong's strength.

The War God Body is the same as a Tianren; Lin Bai had just entered the role, and if the War God Body were destroyed, it would be much more troublesome to operate in the Immortal World.

It would have a higher chance of success if his main body went to help.

……

After leaving Songshi City, General Nan took the War God Body and Teleported all the way, hardly stopping along the way.

In half an hour, the two had run more than ten thousand miles and entered the mountain range.

This was Lin Bai's first time seeing the landscape of the Immortal World.

The Black Stone Mountain Range was black in its entirety. The further in they went, the scarcer the vegetation became, and the Spirit Qi was sometimes thick and sometimes thin, no longer balanced. Occasionally, they would see some ominous mountains and treacherous waters, emitting toxic gases of various colors, and within the toxic gases, the skeletons of Fierce Beasts could be vaguely seen.

This was truly a place of treacherous mountains and evil waters.

Lin Bai's Eye of Breaking Miasma could clearly analyze the composition of the toxic gases; these gases could easily poison to death those Fierce Beasts with cultivation comparable to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, far stronger than the poisons refined by the Poison Sect.

The Fierce Beasts living in the toxic gases had not yet opened their intelligence, and seeing the two passing by, they would often pounce, treating them as prey.

But those massive Fierce Beasts that blotted out the sky could not last a single round in the hands of Nan Lingtian, and were killed with ease.

After shattering a poisonous dragon several hundred zhang long with one palm, General Nan suddenly stopped and looked at the dragon's corpse in confusion: "Are you sure you walked out from here?"

"That's right." Lin Bai nodded affirmatively, "When I flew over from the sky, I was even attacked by this poisonous dragon!"

"What kind of Fierce Beast's territory is in the mist behind the poisonous dragon?" General Nan looked back and suddenly asked.

"……" Lin Bai subconsciously looked over there.

Gray-black mist surged and rolled in the valley, blocking his line of sight. He could perceive a group of powerful life forces inside, but if asked what was inside, he had absolutely no idea.

"You can't say." General Nan sneered and suddenly appeared beside the War God Body. Before Lin Bai could react, the majestic Spiritual Power circulating within the War God Body was sealed.

"It is impossible for your strength to have passed through the blockade of the poisonous dragon." General Nan came before Lin Bai, "The Mother Body is not in the Black Stone Mountain Range at all. Where exactly did you come from?"

The War God Body smiled slightly and used Flash; the next instant, he was already several miles away: "General Nan, sometimes you don't need to fight to pass through a blockade."

【Astonishment from Nan Lingtian; +1 +1 +1...】

Nan Lingtian was stunned, his figure vanished, and he came behind Lin Bai again, following like a shadow: "Even with Spiritual Power sealed, you can still use Teleportation? Is this the special talent of the first Tianren born from a Mother Body?"

True Speech Art!

Brainwashing!

Lin Bai used two Skills on Nan Lingtian in succession and laughed: "That's right, General Nan, this is indeed the innate divine ability bestowed upon me by the Mother Body."

Nan Lingtian smiled involuntarily: "Immediately take me to find the Mother Body, otherwise I will kill you."

After saying this.

He was stunned, his whole person frozen; having witnessed Lin Bai's divine ability, the doubts in his heart had been dispelled, and he had intended to appease Lin Bai, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it had turned into a threat instead.

Furthermore.

The involuntary smile was also very strange; he frowned: "What did you do to me?"

"One should not have the intention to harm others, but one must have the intention to guard against them. General Nan truly intends to kill me; since that is the case, I have no need to be polite to the General either." The War God Body Teleported out at this moment, and at the same time, the Red Thread shot out from his hand, binding toward Nan Lingtian.

The instant the Red Thread reached his body, Nan Lingtian Teleported in front of Lin Bai again, waving his hand to slash at the Red Thread that was flying back toward him.

But the Spiritual Power he slashed out failed to sever the Red Thread.

Instead, the Red Thread wound its way up along his arm.

But just as the Red Thread wrapped around his arm, Nan Lingtian's figure vanished, and the Rope Binding missed.

The Red Rope, unwilling to admit defeat, chased after him again.

"What is this thing?" Nan Lingtian kept flickering around Lin Bai, his voice coming from all directions.

His Teleportation speed was extremely fast, dodging the entanglement of the Red Rope, to the point that it seemed as if dozens of Nan Lingtians existed around Lin Bai simultaneously.

These Nan Lingtians struck out blades composed of Spiritual Power, attempting to sever the relentlessly pursuing Red Thread, but all to no avail.

However.

The Red Thread could not wrap around his body either.

His Teleportation speed was too fast.

Every time he used Flash, the Red Thread had to change direction and go to find him again.

Watching the Red Rope that seemed to have lost its direction, Lin Bai was filled with admiration.

F*ck.

A high-realm immortal is indeed difficult to deal with; the speed of his Teleportation is such that even Rope Binding cannot keep up.

Lin Bai had a method to deal with Nan Lingtian; the simplest was to bind him with the Red Thread and a Puppet, letting a Celestial who did not know what love was taste the sweetness of love.

However, Lin Bai only had two Red Threads left in his hand.

Nan Lingtian is merely a Platinum realm; using a Red Thread on him would be a waste.

Moreover.

The Red Thread is different from a card; even if he were bound to a Puppet, with his skill, he could bypass the Puppet and attack him directly with ease; the Puppet's cultivation simply could not control him.

"General Nan, this is a Magic Tool gifted to me by the Mother Body," the War God Body said, "You cannot destroy it."

"A Law Sacred Artifact?" Nan Lingtian's voice was distorted.

"Correct, a Law Sacred Artifact," Lin Bai said, "General Nan, why don't we cooperate..."

Before he could finish his words.

Nan Rong suddenly appeared behind the War God Body.

Lin Bai's hair stood on end; he used Flash at the first opportunity, then used the Great Demon Decomposition Technique, and in an instant, his entire body split into pieces, dodging Nan Lingtian's fatal blow.

"As expected of the first Celestial favored by the Mother Body, the innate divine ability is truly powerful." Nan Lingtian laughed, appearing insane, "You are sufficiently shrewd, but your stupidity lies in exposing your identity while you were still weak; now, this opportunity is mine."

Before he could finish his words.

A long blade suddenly appeared in his hand, and he slashed fiercely down at Lin Bai.

In an instant.

The sky was filled with the figures of Nan Lingtian, and countless blade shadows sealed off all space within fifty miles.

The Blade Qi compressed the air, emitting a series of cracking sounds.

The War God Body had just reassembled when it was covered by these blade shadows.

Seeing that the War God Body had nowhere to hide.

Damn it!

Lin Bai's main body, which had been chasing the whole way, cursed and hurriedly used Recall on the War God Body.

But unlike the Heavenly Demon Heart, the War God Body was not recalled.

Of course, it might also be because his split soul had taken up residence, giving the War God Body life.

Failing to retrieve the War God Body.

Lin Bai changed his strategy, quickly releasing the Blacksmith Six-Piece Set to block above the War God Body's head.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Bang!

A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise.

The Blade Qi slammed fiercely into the Blacksmith Six-Piece Set.

A tremendous force came from above, and the War God Body could not withstand it, crashing toward the ground like a meteorite.

Boom!

Another loud noise.

A large crater was smashed into the ground by the War God Body.

The shockwave scattered outward.

With the War God Body as the center, it was as if a gale had been whipped up; trees were bent and broken, rocks flew into the air, and the body of the Poison Dragon killed by Nan Lingtian was embedded with branches and stones, its corpse torn to pieces...

"The first Celestial is truly worthy of his reputation; with a difference of three levels in realm, you can actually take a blow from me and not die; the Mother Body is indeed partial to you all." Nan Lingtian's voice continued to come from the sky, "But your Spiritual Power is sealed; relying only on the innate divine ability bestowed by the Mother Body, how many more rounds can you hold out?"

As he spoke.

He raised the blade in his hand once more.

"Nan Lingtian, I am here."

In a moment of urgency, Lin Bai's true body, hundreds of miles away, used the Provocation skill and shouted aloud.

Beneath his feet lay the spread-out Magpie Bridge, connecting directly to Xu Longyun in the Mortal World.

Lin Bai did not fight unprepared battles; as long as he wished, he could return to the Mortal World via the Magpie Bridge at any time.

Under the Provocation.

Nan Lingtian's hostility shifted instantly; he abandoned his pursuit of the War God Body, his eyes reddening as he flashed directly toward Lin Bai, with the Red Rope in close pursuit behind him.

When he saw Lin Bai's face clearly, he was overcome with fury: "A filthy mortal from the lower realm, actually colluding with a Celestial, die."

The voice rolled, echoing through the heavens.

When Lin Bai's true body participated.

The Extreme Counter-Kill System suddenly popped up a new mission: 【Break through the current predicament; Reward: Agility 300】

Lin Bai could not spare the attention for any system mission at this moment; no matter what, he could not let Nan Lingtian go back.

"Nan Lingtian, the one you want to kill is me." Before Nan Lingtian could flash to Lin Bai's side, the War God Body spoke again, also using Provocation.

Nan Lingtian killed his way back without hesitation: "A Law Sacred Artifact belongs to whoever obtains it; after I kill you, I shall be the Tenth Heavenly King, die."

"Nan Lingtian, look over here." Lin Bai shouted again, and at the same time, he released a second Red Thread.

Nan Lingtian turned around once more.

"Over here." The War God Body shouted.

Nan Lingtian turned again.

Two-way Provocation.

Nan Lingtian was like a spinning top, whirling back and forth between Lin Bai and the War God Body, letting out roars from time to time, yet unable to strike a single blow for a long while.

Likewise.

Lin Bai and the War God Body could not harm him either.

His speed was too fast; the Blacksmith Six-Piece Set could not get close to him at all, and before it could even smash down, it would miss.

The two intersecting Red Ropes would also often be dodged by him at the most critical moment.

Lin Bai did not want to use sonic attacks.

It was not that he was afraid of hurting anyone.

The key was that if the sound was too quiet, the lethality would be insufficient, and if it were too loud, it would carry too far; a guy at the Platinum realm was already this hard to deal with, and if he provoked Celestials of higher realms, they would only be able to hide back in the Mortal World.

Dragging it out like this was not a solution.

When Nan Lingtian was provoked by the War God Body once again and turned to kill, Lin Bai had a flash of inspiration; he withdrew to take out a kitchen knife, flew out an arm, grabbed a piece of meat from the ground, and began to operate.

Dazzling: When you are cooking, you will attract everyone's gaze.

On one side was Provocation, on the other was Dazzling.

Two skills used simultaneously.

Nan Rong's body rushed toward the War God Body, but his head was forced to turn to watch Lin Bai cook.

With a Crack!

His head rotated one hundred and eighty degrees.

A scream.

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from Nan Lingtian's mouth; he wanted to reset his head, but despite using all his strength, he could not turn his head back.

The twisted cervical spine was repairing abnormally slowly under the effect of his powerful recovery ability.

But with his powerful Spiritual Power, even though that Spirit Field head was twisted behind him, he still did not die for the time being and could still let out a terrified roar: "This is also Law Power?"

【Fear from Nan Lingtian; +1 +1 +1...】

With his head forcibly turned one hundred and eighty degrees, it was ultimately a serious injury, and Nan Lingtian's teleporting figure immediately slowed down.

The Red Thread took the opportunity to wrap around his arms, two Red Threads binding him tightly.

One was a Tortoise Shell Binding, the other a Four Horses Binding.

Different binding methods were used on one person, and as both had to be completed, the indestructible Red Rope forcibly snapped Nan Lingtian's limbs and bound them in their respective positions...

With his neck twisted and his limbs broken, Nan Lingtian, who had never imagined he would end up in such a state, could not help but let out one miserable howl after another.

Lin Bai did not stand on ceremony with him.

Strike while the iron is hot.

The Blacksmith Six-Piece Set fell like raindrops, smashing all over his body.

In an instant.

Nan Lingtian's Dharma Treasure was shattered to pieces...
