“Eh? Compared to before…”

When Lin Bai walked out of the passage in the stone wall again, he paused and looked at the scene in front of him with surprise.

This time, the scene in front of him was not the same as before.

The dark gray platform had changed into a transparent jade color. It seemed that the entire platform was made of jade and was emitting a weak luster, which made the pitch-black space a little brighter.

Not only that, the two stone bridges connecting the two sides of the platform had also become only one side of the bridge, and the bridge was also a clear green color.

Lin Bai hesitated for a moment before gently stepping on it. Immediately, a warm and cool sensation flowed from the soles of his feet to his entire body, making him feel comfortable all over. The fatigue from the previous battles seemed to have been swept away by this place.

Little Blue’s eyes widened as it jumped off the Jade Bridge. The corners of its mouth kept chattering, “Master, look at this place. This place is really too…”

“Alright!” Lin Bai patted Little Blue’s head lovingly. “Don’t forget the most important thing. Otherwise, this place won’t be a happy place…”

If they failed, then the Jade Bridge and the jade platform would be the burial ground of the man and the Beast.

Little Blue nodded in realization and understood Lin Bai’s meaning. Its face became calm and it gradually began to adjust the state of its body.

Seeing Little Blue’s action, Lin Bai nodded in satisfaction and slowly walked forward.

The closer he got to the high platform, the more Lin Bai felt that the spiritual energy in the surroundings was getting denser. When he stepped on the high platform, he felt that the spiritual energy was even denser…

“If I could cultivate here, I would be able to advance by leaps and bounds!” Lin Bai sighed with emotion. However, such a thing was impossible, so he could only pack up and sigh with emotion.

Swoosh…

A black fog appeared out of thin air in the center of the high platform.

As soon as the black fog appeared, Lin Bai frowned. In the black fog, he sensed an aura that he couldn’t be more familiar with.

The wind blew gently, dispersing the black fog. One was tall, and the other was short. The figures of a man and a beast were revealed.

Little Blue widened its eyes in disbelief. One of its hands was still pointing in front of it. Following the blue finger, one could see a figure that looked exactly like Little Blue standing in the middle of the high platform.

Beside Little Blue was another person, Lin Bai!

“Is this the final challenge?” Lin Bai’s expression turned slightly solemn.

The other person and beast looked exactly like them, but their faces were as still as water, as if they were soulless machines.

“Little Blue, it seems like we can’t be careless this time!” Lin Bai instructed.

Even though the other party looked exactly like them, Lin Bai could still feel the aura that the other party occasionally emitted. That aura gave him a headache.

Little Blue nodded. There was a faint hint of anger in its eyes, and its battle intent slowly rose.

Whoosh!

Two air-piercing sounds rang out. Before Lin Bai could make a move, his opponent had already chosen to attack first, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Lin Bai.

Meanwhile, Little Blue, who was miraged by this world, had fallen into a bitter battle with the real Little Blue.

The illusion of Lin Bai had just met his opponent when he suddenly threw a punch. This punch carried an aura that could destroy everything in its path. Lin Bai did not retreat, and similarly threw a punch!

Boom!

The two fists collided, creating an explosive sound. The billowing air waves even made their robes flutter!

Both of them were forced back a step by this impact.

“So it seems that there is no difference in cultivation level?” Lin Bai pondered in his heart. He had also used his fist to receive the attack just now to test out the difference in cultivation between the two of them.

And now, both of them had taken a step back, which meant that the difference in cultivation level between the two of them could be completely ignored.

Lin Bai was calculating in his heart, but he didn’t expect that fake Lin Bai, who had transformed into his true form, would stumble. His left foot took a small step back, while his right foot kicked at Lin Bai’s lower jaw from below.

This kick brought with it a strong gust of wind, making Lin Bai’s skin feel as if it was about to be cut open. In the blink of an eye, the attack was only half a foot away from Lin Bai.

“Not good!”

Lin Bai cried out in his heart. He circulated his cultivation technique and retreated with all his strength. As he retreated, he threw out a punch at this kick. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to dodge it in time.

Crack…

A clear sound rang out from Lin Bai’s left elbow. The pain that seeped into his bone marrow made Lin Bai grit his teeth. Fortunately, he had avoided this attack at the smallest cost.

Otherwise, if that kick had landed on his lower jaw, what would have shattered would have been his lower jaw. It would have struck his brain with an intense force from his upper and lower jaw…

Lin Bai could not help but raise his guard. If he had not made the right choice, he might have been finished off by the fake him in one move.

Lin Bai quickly retreated a few meters and arrived at the edge of the high platform. He took the opportunity to glance in Little Blue’s direction.

Little Blue was also in close combat with the other party, and it was at a slight disadvantage. It was also not feeling well.

“It seems that these two people’s cultivation levels are similar to ours, and their cultivation methods and moves are the same. However, in terms of their battle sensitivity and judgment of their moves, they are much stronger than us…”

Lin Bai quickly made a judgment in his mind.

During a battle, not only did he have to move his body and circulate his cultivation method, his mind also had to quickly determine the situation and situation of the battle.

Buzz…

The sound of a sword rang out as a long sword was pulled out by the fake Lin Bai. Lin Bai immediately pulled out his long sword as well.

As the saying went, ‘one inch is longer and one inch is stronger’. Currently, Lin Bai did not dare to be the slightest bit rash or careless.

Ping!

Bang!

The two long swords continued to collide, clash, and rub against each other!

Lin Bai was fully focused on the opponent’s movements. Even though his wrist and fingers were changing, he did not dare to give up. However, even so, in the continuous exchange of blows, he was forced to retreat step by step.

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans appeared on Lin Bai’s head. His opponent’s sword moves and strength were exactly the same as his. However, it was precisely because of this that Lin Bai knew the damage of these moves like the back of his hand.

Even if he was hit by one move, the balance of him being slightly at a disadvantage would be quickly broken.

Gradually, Lin Bai’s back touched the restriction on the edge of the high platform. Not only did his opponent’s sword moves not stop, but the angle of his attacks became more and more tricky. The frequency of his attacks was also like lightning.

“It’s not a good idea to keep defending passively. He’s already stronger than me in some aspects.” Lin Bai’s mind was working quickly, and his left hand was quietly placed in his robe.

Crack…

Lin Bai’s left hand gripped the small cauldron tightly, and then he suddenly swung it forward. The sword and cauldron collided with each other, and the sound of the longsword breaking could be heard.

Lin Bai did not give up this opportunity. He held the small cauldron in his left hand and the longsword in his right hand tightly, and he launched a swift and fierce counterattack.

Puchi!

A stream of bright red blood splattered!
