Lin Bai surveyed his surroundings; there were thirteen Warriors in total, all at the Wending Realm. Although they weren’t top-tier in the Wending Realm, they did range from the First to Second Level of the Wending Realm.

"Speak, are you people from the Great Witch Dynasty or Warriors of the Ancient Clan?"

On the East Continent now, the only forces capable of deploying over ten Wending Realm Warriors at once would be the Great Witch Dynasty and the East Continent Academy.

The Warrior whose arm had been severed by Lin Bai raised his head, his eyes cold as he spoke to Lin Bai: "Saint Lin Bai, no matter what, we cannot let you save that witch!"

Lin Bai replied coldly, "I’m not going to save the witch by nature; I’m trying to save another person sharing the same body!"

The Wending Realm Warrior retorted coldly, "Even so, we cannot allow it. How do we know which person you’re saving? If you release that witch, wouldn’t the blood of our East Continent Warriors have been shed in vain!"

Lin Bai shook his head and said coldly, "Stubborn fools, get out of my way; I don’t have time to fight with you!"

The Warrior, clutching his endlessly bleeding wound, replied coldly, "Since Saint Lin Bai insists on going it alone, don’t blame us for being rude. Take action!"

As he spoke, the thirteen Wending Realm Warriors once again charged at Lin Bai.

They immediately displayed the strength of the Wending Realm.

At that moment, Lin Ye also roared and pounced on one of them.

"Lin Ye, attack, tear, kill!"

Lin Bai swiftly directed Lin Ye’s punches.

Simultaneously, the Demonic Sword in Lin Bai’s hand flashed and he attacked the Warrior with the severed arm, slashing through the sky with a sword aura that cut down fiercely.

"Zhanlong Sword Skill! Zhanlong Drawing Sword Skill!"

With a furious slash, the overwhelming sword aura came crashing down, directly targeting the top of this person’s head.

The Wending Realm Warrior’s face turned to shock, and he hastily retreated to dodge Lin Bai’s strike. Even though he retreated with all his might, he was still injured by the power of Lin Bai’s sword.

With a look of panic, he stared at Lin Bai in utter astonishment; he never expected that Lin Bai, who was only at the Death Reversal Realm Great Perfection, could actually contend with him, a First Level Wending Realm Warrior!

The dozen or so Warriors besieged Lin Bai, yet couldn’t bring him down in a short time.

"Idiots! Attack the strong man by his side!"

At this moment, an angry voice echoed in the void.

Upon hearing the voice, the thirteen Wending Realm experts turned and charged at Lin Ye, joining forces to overwhelm him. In an instant, they severely injured Lin Ye, who then spat out blood.

"Courting death!" Lin Bai’s face turned fierce, and a strand of sword aura slashed down.

Instantly, a Wending Realm Warrior in front was split in two under Lin Bai’s sword aura!

In that moment, the remaining eleven Wending Realm Warriors quickly grabbed the gravely injured Lin Ye and executed a swift movement technique to leave the area.

"Flying Swords!"

Lin Bai stepped onto a flying sword, pursuing the eleven of them!

The speed of the flying sword was incredibly fast, allowing Lin Bai to quickly catch up to the group.

The one-armed Warrior said coldly, "Stop him! Buy us some time!"

Immediately, one Wending Realm Warrior stopped, turning to fly towards Lin Bai with a death-defying spirit.

Lin Bai’s face turned fierce, the Demonic Sword in his hand flashing with a cold gleam, slicing through to decapitate the man.

A Wending Realm Warrior thus perished at Lin Bai’s hands.

The other ten still held onto Lin Ye, fleeing rapidly.

Lin Bai, standing on the flying sword, relentlessly pursued the ten.

Each time Lin Bai got close, a Warrior would stop to block him.

Lin Bai continued his slaughter until only the Warrior with the severed arm was left, holding onto Lin Ye and fleeing into the distance.

At this time.

Lin Bai chased the group into a dense forest, where every tree was etched with densely packed rune imprints, forming a formation.

The mountain range was actually a mountain of formations, seemingly used to trap something.

Lin Bai pursued the group into the forest.

Entering the forest, he arrived at a canyon; the one-armed Warrior leaped into the canyon with Lin Ye in tow.

Lin Bai followed closely, dropping into the canyon with them.

The canyon was bottomless.

But within the boundless darkness below, countless lights flickered to life. On the stone walls of the canyon, numerous mountain caves showed signs of Warrior activity within.

Lin Bai flew into the canyon, glancing down, spotting the gravely injured Lin Ye lying at the bottom, barely clinging to life, his eyes showing a flicker of joy upon seeing Lin Bai.

Lin Bai slowly descended into the canyon, looking at the stone walls on either side, where Warriors were living in stone chambers, all looking disheveled and ferocious.

Just one glance told Lin Bai this was no good place.

As Lin Bai reached the canyon floor, Warriors from the stone chambers on both sides emerged, staring at Lin Bai and Lin Ye.

Landing beside Lin Ye, Lin Bai took out some Elixir Pills from his storage bag, administering them to Lin Ye to stabilize his cultivation.

Yet he didn’t see the one-armed Warrior who had taken Lin Ye.

"Saint Lin Bai, long time no see!"

At this moment, a cold laugh echoed through the serene canyon.

Upon hearing the voice, Lin Bai looked up to see a white-robed man standing in mid-air above the canyon, with the one-armed Warrior by his side.

Lin Bai recognized the white-robed man; it was none other than Wu He!

From the canyon bottom, Lin Bai looked up at Wu He and said coldly, "I was right; a force able to dispatch over a dozen Wending Realm Warriors at once must be connected to the Great Witch Dynasty!"

"It seems the Chaos of the Demon Sect allowed the Great Witch Dynasty to absorb quite a few strong warriors."

Lin Bai said coldly.

Wu He chuckled, "I didn’t expect that the strength of Saint Lin Bai would increase so much in just half a year, to the point where ordinary Wending Realm fighters are no match for you!"

Lin Bai glanced at the Warriors in the stone chambers on either side of the canyon, his expression ice-cold.

Wu He laughed, "Saint Lin Bai, do you know what this place is?"

Lin Bai remained silent.

Wu He laughed maniacally, "I’ll tell you then; this place is called the Eighteen Levels of Hell, another site of the Great Witch Dynasty for imprisoning felons!"

Hearing Wu He’s words, Lin Bai looked at the Warriors in the stone chambers on either side, his expression becoming slightly colder.

Wu He laughed, "The Warriors imprisoned here have either offended the Great Witch Dynasty’s clans or sects or possess great strength but refuse to serve the Great Witch Dynasty!"

"Or they’re heinous criminals!"

"To those imprisoned here, killing them is a mercy. Only by imprisoning them here, never allowing them to overtake markets or see the light of day again, is the best torment!"

Wu He laughed coldly.
