Chapter 1177: Chapter 1070: Forebears’ Bloodline

“…Ahead, is it safe?”

“Brother Wuming, the path your Sky Sword Sect has scouted is a dead end…”

At this moment, in the Land of Mist, Yuan Wuji, Ge Renxiong, and the others all wore exceedingly ugly expressions on their faces.

They had exhausted almost all their lifesaving resources in a desperate struggle to escape the territory of the Snow White Demon Swallow.

The elite experts from the three major Sect Gates had nearly lost half their number by now.

Yet they were still clueless about how much further the path ahead stretched.

Sword Nameless was also deeply furrowing his brows at this moment.

The deeper they went, the more terrifying the Forbidden Beasts they encountered; the Snow White Demon Swallow was already so formidable… could they handle the Forbidden Beasts they would meet next?

At that time, Linyihao suddenly smiled and said:

“I have a method to ensure everyone’s safe passage forward.”

He confidently stepped forward, saying:

“The reason we’ve been safe so far on this journey is simply due to my presence.”

“Now, I can keep you unharmed, but you will need to pay a corresponding price!”

Everyone looked his way.

The three Dominant Lords all wore cold expressions.

“With just you, a mere Forbidden Arts Practitioner, you dare to speak so arrogantly?”

Ge Renxiong opened his mouth gravely, anger laced in his voice:

“Are you even qualified to bargain with us?”

Linyihao coldly replied:

“With this Sword in hand, do I not have the right to negotiate with you?”

He took down the rusty black longsword he had on his back and lightly drew out a bit of the hilt.

Instantly, a terrifying aura erupted from the blade, leaving everyone’s hearts filled with shock and awe.

“What is this power… causing even me to feel alarmed?”

Sword Nameless said in surprise.

“This Sword… comes with quite the reputation!”

Yuan Wuji was also taken aback.

“This Sword has a spirit and resides within my Dao Scenic Area; it takes but a thought from the Sword Immortal for trivial Forbidden Beasts to pose no challenge.”

Linyihao spoke confidently.

Upon hearing this, the three Dominant Lords fell into silence.

“What do you want?”

They asked.

“Forbidden Dao Origin!”

The Forbidden Dao Origin was a treasure of heaven and earth, typically only born within certain Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands, and could greatly accelerate a Cultivator’s progress in cultivation.

Linyihao’s earlier journey to Qingjian Sect had been largely to obtain Daoyuan Pills.

But now… the resources the three major powers could offer are obviously countless times more than what Qingjian Sect could.

Therefore, he felt… there was no need to hide any longer, it was time to lay his cards on the table!

Now was his chance to demand a good price!

“How much do you want?”

Yuan Wuji asked.

Linyihao said:

“One hundred portions!”

“One hundred portions from each family!”

Even a Creation Spirit Vein could only produce a few Daoyuan each year. What Linyihao was asking for… was nothing short of a lion’s share.

Yet, the three Dominant Lords just exchanged glances, nodded, and agreed!

The opportunity related to the Emperor Star was what mattered most. Compared to that, a hundred portions of Forbidden Dao Origin, however precious, was not too much to offer.

They continued forward, and soon after, they encountered a swarm of Golden Honeybees!

The golden Honeybees emitted a humming sound that terrified souls.

“No, these Honeybees… too dreadful, each one… more fearsome than the white Demon Swallow before?”

“Run, run quickly!”

“We have no means to resist!”

The three Dominant Lords were now completely panicked!

The aura of these Honeybees caused their scalps to tingle, obliterating any desire to resist.

“Stay calm, everyone; with me here, all shall be well!”

Linyihao bellowed, saying:

“Sword Immortal, please make your move!”

He actively called out!

In his Dao Scenic Area, the Rotten Sword Immortal, already deep in slumber to avoid being ‘overwhelmed to death’ by Linyihao, now awoke and said:

“…What is it?”

Linyihao said:

“Sword Immortal, please act quickly and subdue these Golden Honeybees!”

But the Rotten Sword Immortal, after just one glance outside, was shocked:

“How can this world… still have White Mist Origin?!”

She was incredibly astonished, because, the honey produced by those bees… was actually suffused with… traces of white mist?!

Such material… no longer existed in the world!

It had already been extinguished through countless ages.

“Could it be… has that entity appeared? Only they could possibly bring back the white mist…”

A thought trembled within her, murmuring to herself.

But just as this thought emerged.

Her rotting corpse began to leak bodily fluids again!

“I… I’ve recognized its existence? And fallen into death?!”

The rotting female corpse was instantly filled with terror!

The memory she had paid a great price to excise… now was the moment she realized what she had forgotten!

“You… Linyihao, do you want me dead?!”

Unable to contain herself, she spoke out in anger.

Dammit, she had gone through great lengths to forget such things, and now, this fellow awakens her and exposes her to things that might be related to that entity…

She wanted to strangle Linyihao on the spot!

Upon hearing this, Linyihao was dumbfounded and asked in confusion:

“Sword Immortal, you…”

“Stop talking nonsense, run, run quickly!”

The Rotten Sword Immortal became frantic, daring not to confront the Honeybees, and could only take Linyihao to flee at top speed!

While fleeing, she twisted off her own head and stomped it to a pulp, so that… she could “reset” the memories in her mind!

Seeing Linyihao escape in a flash, Yuan Wuji, Ge Renxiong, and the others immediately panicked.

“Damn it, Linyihao is such a damn trickster! Tells us not to panic, yet he himself runs like hell?”

“Hurry, run! This guy is a complete charlatan!”
