Chapter 329: Fierce Battle
Under the City Lord’s Estate.
On the high platform, Little Blue shuttled back and forth between the four of them.
However, this movement was not as smooth as before. There were a few times when the weapons of those few people had brushed against Little Blue’s body. At this moment, there were already a few small scratches on its back and shoulders.
However, the more this was the case, the more there was a rush of energy on Little Blue’s face and the depths of its eyes. It became more and more excited and threw itself into the battle, enjoying the fun of battle.
On the other side of the high platform.
Lin Bai was fighting with a person holding a sword. The two figures shuttled through various corners of the high platform, appearing and disappearing in a flash. Their speed was so fast that it was impossible for the naked eye to catch up to them.
“Eh?”
The more Lin Bai fought with this person, the more surprised he became.
In the previous few battles on the high platform, each person and each monster had fought evenly. However, on this high platform, this swordsman’s speed was much faster than the others.
His sword techniques were even more profound, but his moves were extremely simple. There were no profound sword techniques, but each time, Lin Bai felt that it was extremely difficult to deal with him.
Suddenly!
A sword light flashed from the top down. Lin Bai’s footwork was nimble, and he flashed to the right!
However, at the same time, a sword light came from the left to the right, and it swept over with a stronger, pure killing intent than the previous one!
The swordsman’s eyes flashed, and he let out a sigh of relief. In his eyes, the scene of Lin Bai being hit by the second sword light, with blood splattering all over his body, had already appeared.
“It’s too early to be happy!”
However, at this moment, an emotionless voice came from behind the swordsman. This voice was like the call of h.e.l.l, and it made people tremble all over!
Pfft!
Lin Bai circulated his cultivation technique and gathered it on his hand blade. The hand blade swiftly pa.s.sed through the distance between the two of them and pierced into the back of the swordsman.
The swordsman’s eyes were filled with disbelief until the end. However, there was not a trace of pain in them. Instead, there was a hint of relief. Soon after, his physical body turned into a black shadow and disappeared from this world.
Lin Bai could not help but shake his head. It seemed like these swordsmen had been forcefully restrained by some kind of power. It was very likely that they had already died, but they were unable to leave after they died…
“Little Blue, do you need help?”
Lin Bai quickly composed himself. At the moment, the most important thing was still the matter at hand. He couldn’t continue with the secret regarding this place. If he were to take a huge risk, Lin Bai still needed to consider whether he could bear it.
On the other side.
Little Blue had already finished off two people and was currently fighting with the remaining people.
“Not bad!”
Lin Bai watched for a while and nodded his head in satisfaction.
He could see that after a few rounds of fighting, Little Blue was getting more and more proficient in its methods of attack. He was becoming more and more skilled. This was the reason why Lin Bai wanted Little Blue to fight alone.
After a while, Little Blue successfully finished off the remaining people. After that, a few more figures turned into black shadows and disappeared into the world.
Little Blue watched the few black shadows disappear. Its eyes could not help but be stunned. Then, it blinked its eyes and looked at Lin Bai. Where did they all go? They seemed to be very happy?
“Don’t mind them. When we get out of here, we will naturally know the answer!”
Lin Bai patted Little Blue’s head and threw it a few pills that replenished its vitality.
They rushed through many high platforms in a row. At this moment, the invisible shackles in front of them were once again opened. However, Lin Bai was not in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he planned to bring Little Blue here to recuperate.
After Little Blue swallowed the pills, it began to catalyze the medicinal effects. However, she fell into a deep sleep halfway through.
Lin Bai found this scene rather funny as he curled his lips.
After a long while, Little Blue woke up.
“Little Blue, come here!”
Lin Bai called Little Blue to his side. When Little Blue saw Lin Bai’s gaze, it knew what was going to happen next. Its face was full of antic.i.p.ation.
“System, I want to pa.s.s on my cultivation to Little Blue,”Lin Bai said in his heart.
[ Ding — ]
[ Host has given Little Blue fifty days of cultivation. ]
[ Thirty times return has been successfully triggered. ]
[ The host has received a return of 1,500 days of cultivation. ]
After breaking through so many obstacles on the high platform, Lin Bai had already acc.u.mulated quite a few days of spiritual qi rewards.
However, this thirty-fold return made Lin Bai’s eyebrows jump. He had wanted to trigger a higher multiple, but this kind of thing depended on luck and fate. It was useless even if he was anxious.
On the other hand, Little Blue’s body was much firmer than before, and it seemed to be much taller than before?
Other than these changes, Lin Bai could clearly feel that the golden patterns on Little Blue’s body were becoming more and more resplendent, as if it was alive and flowing in its fur…
“Mm, not bad. Wait until we hit a few more high platforms, then I’ll continue imparting strength to you!”
As Lin Bai spoke, he patted his shoulder with one hand. Little Blue understood and jumped up. It even wrapped her tail around Lin Bai’s neck, and was already thinking about the next time he would pa.s.s on strength to it.
Another half a day pa.s.sed.
Lin Bai and Little Blue pa.s.sed five more high platforms. Each time, the number of monsters on the high platforms would decrease by one, but the strength of the monsters on the high platforms would increase exponentially.
…
“Phew!”
Lin Bai wiped the thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his breathing was not as steady as before.
Little Blue simply sat on the ground. It sat on the ground and panted heavily. There was a scar on its shoulder that was neither deep nor shallow.
From the beginning of the last stage, he could not let Little Blue fight alone. The two of them worked together in this stage but Lin Bai was still a little out of breath.
However, this was still within Lin Bai’s tolerance range.
“There aren’t many stages left.” Lin Bai estimated in his heart that if things went according to the previous stage, there should only be about four stages left.
“I need to be very careful next. Neither Little Blue nor I can be seriously injured. Otherwise, it will affect the battle and cause a huge headache.”
Lin Bai’s thoughts drifted for a while, then he waved at Little Blue who was sitting on the ground. Little Blue rushed over with a face full of joy.
“System, I want to pa.s.s on my cultivation to Little Blue.”
[ Ding — ]
[Host has given Little Blue fifty days of cultivation. ]
[40 times return has been successfully triggered. ]
[ Host has received 2,000 days of return of cultivation. ]
Lin Bai felt the power circulating all over his body. His meridians were much thicker than before. He stretched out a hand and gently clenched it. There seemed to be twice as much power circulating in his palm as before.
As for Little Blue, the golden light on its body became even more resplendent, and its body grew a little taller…
“Based on this progress, when we get out of here, you and I will have a pretty good improvement. When we fight with the City Lord, I won’t be as weak as before and can only run away like last time.”
As Lin Bai spoke, he tried to mobilize a strand of spiritual power and inject it into the small cauldron. However, the small cauldron was still as calm as an ancient well and did not have the slightest reaction.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the next high platform.
Two black figures that were sitting cross-legged on the ground gradually appeared. They were two st.u.r.dy and rough human figures. Their hair was disheveled and draped over their shoulders.
One of them slowly opened his eyes. A dazzling ray of light that carried an ancient and unsophisticated aura a.s.saulted his face.
