The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 2831 - 2806: Unbeatable Sword Skill and Heaven-reaching Sword Skill

Returning to the Flying Dragon Forest, Lin Bai stayed in the wooden house, without going out.More than ten days passed.

During these ten days, Lin Bai remained secluded within the wooden house, seeing no one, including Lin Chen and Yu Yu who came to visit; Lin Bai instructed Lin Ye to send them away, refusing guests.

During these ten days, Lin Bai fully mastered "the Mist Sword Skill" and "Unbeatable Sword Skill".

On this day, in the wooden house, Lin Bai opened his eyes and quietly said: "Just as I suspected, ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ and ’Tongtian Sword Skill’ are actually one comprehensive sword technique!"

"But there are differences between the two!"

"The Tongtian Sword Skill has only the first five scrolls! However, the fourth and fifth scrolls have been lost."

"Meanwhile, the Unbeatable Sword Skill consists of seven scrolls!"

"Now that I have received the legacy of Dugu Bai, I have obtained the complete ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’, meaning I have completed the missing five scrolls of the Tongtian Sword Skill!"

Lin Bai sat in the wooden house, speaking quietly to himself.

"The Unbeatable Sword Skill, with its seven scrolls, as introduced within, when practiced to its peak, can allow a warrior to transcend and strengthen by seven states..."

"But when I previously practiced ’Tongtian Sword Skill’, after breaking through the Death Reversal Realm, even when executing the third scroll of ’Tongtian Sword Skill’, it could only increase my cultivation by one state!"

Lin Bai closed his eyes, speaking softly to himself.

"Though it seems ’Tongtian Sword Skill’ and ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ are one and the same set of techniques, upon close reading, one can tell they have vastly different effects!"

"These two sword techniques have different characteristics!"

Lin Bai narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "’Tongtian Sword Skill’, despite only enhancing one state after breaking through the Death Reversal Realm, has virtually no side effects!"

"But the Unbeatable Sword Skill is different!"

"The secret of the Unbeatable Sword Skill lies in compressing and integrating the spiritual power of heaven and earth within a short time; this energy does not reside in the dantian but rather is stored within every drop of blood, every meridian, every bone, concentrated within all internal organs, every part of the warrior’s body!"

"And as the Unbeatable Sword Skill continues to operate, from the first floor to the seventh floor, the spiritual power within the body, channels, meridians, and bones continues to aggregate, potentially causing the warrior’s body to explode!"

"This is the greatest difference between ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ and ’Tongtian Sword Skill’!"

"But why is this?"

"These two sets of sword techniques appear exactly the same, yet they have drastically different side effects!"

Lin Bai said, puzzled.

After pondering for a long time, Lin Bai stood up from the wooden house.

Immediately, he silently recited the incantation for the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’, and simultaneously, a crimson glow emanated from Lin Bai’s body.

This glow was almost identical to the scarlet glow of the Tongtian Sword Skill.

However, unlike the Tongtian Sword Skill... the moment this crimson glow appeared on Lin Bai’s body, the spiritual power within Lin Bai surged out frantically, while the spiritual power of heaven and earth rushed into his body.

A vast amount of spiritual power surged into Lin Bai’s body, merging into every drop of blood, into every meridian of Lin Bai’s body, into every part...

At this moment, Lin Bai felt a powerful force flowing within his body.

"Unbeatable Sword Skill, Second Floor!"

At this moment, with a single thought, Lin Bai began operating the second floor of the Unbeatable Sword Skill.

Simultaneously, an orange glow emerged within Lin Bai’s body, interwoven with the crimson glow, appearing on Lin Bai’s exterior.

After the orange glow appeared, a rumble of turmoil came from within Lin Bai.

Although Lin Bai’s strength surged once again after the orange glow appeared,

he unfortunately felt that some blood droplets within him could not withstand the overbearing power of the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’, exploding with a bang, some meridians began to rupture, and some bones also developed fractures.

Lin Bai’s face turned pale, veins popped on his forehead, and he perspired like rain.

"Again!"

"Unbeatable Sword Skill, Third Floor!"

"I want to see where my limit is!"

Lin Bai gritted his teeth, struggling to hold on, as the third floor of Unbeatable Sword Skill began to operate.

A yellow glow appeared on Lin Bai’s body.

The crimson glow, the orange glow, the yellow glow, the trinity of divine light appeared on Lin Bai’s body; in this moment, from Lin Bai emanated power sufficient to annihilate any warrior of the Death Reversal Realm Great Perfection.

Lin Bai even felt that, at the moment the tricolor glow emerged, he only needed a glance to easily kill a warrior of the Death Reversal Realm Great Perfection.

However, although the third floor of the Unbeatable Sword Skill granted Lin Bai immense power, within Lin Bai, blood, meridians, bones, all protested.

Blood continued to explode, and Lin Bai’s blood channels seemed to boil.

Meridians broke one by one, and though no major meridians were harmed, the excruciating pain from the meridian breaks was barely bearable for Lin Bai.

The cracks on bones grew increasingly numerous, as if a slight move would shatter a bone!

When Lin Bai looked within himself, seeing his blood vessels boil and burst, meridians break one by one, and dense cracks appear on bones, he stopped the Unbeatable Sword Skill with lingering fear!

Lin Bai dared not attempt the fourth floor of the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’, for he felt that executing the fourth floor would surely result in injury.

At the least, serious injury.

At worst, instant death!

"Is this what Dugu Bai meant?"

"This is a sword technique that trades life for life!"

Lin Bai said in shock.

Lin Bai found it hard to believe that if he forcibly drove the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ to the seventh floor, even though he could wield the power to destroy the heavens and earth, his blood vessels, meridians, and bones could not withstand the pressure of that power, leading to the explosion and exhaustion of blood vessels, the rupture and collapse of meridians, and bones shattering into dust!

Even if at that time, Lin Bai manages to annihilate his opponent with the seventh floor of the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’, the side effects from this technique would render him a cripple even if he survived!

"Trading life for life!"

"What a domineering sword technique!"

Lin Bai said with lingering fear.

"But the Tongtian Sword Skill does not have these side effects; although it can only enhance my cultivation by one state after breaking through the Death Reversal Realm, aside from great spiritual power consumption, it has virtually no other side effects!"

"This is very strange!"

"’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ and ’Tongtian Sword Skill’, though they appear identical, why are their differences so vast?"

Lin Bai sat in the wooden house, puzzled.

The Tongtian Sword Skill has its benefits.

The Unbeatable Sword Skill has its might!

The Tongtian Sword Skill has no side effects, only using up a large amount of spiritual power, and practicing it comes with ease.

But the Unbeatable Sword Skill is different, as Dugu Bai said, it’s a sword technique that trades life for life, once the Unbeatable Sword Skill is driven to the seventh floor, either you die, or I perish!

And generally, the warriors of the Sword God Family who used the seventh floor of the ’Unbeatable Sword Skill’ in battle ended up perishing alongside their enemies.
