Chapter 349 Collapse of the Spirit World (Fifth update, please subscribe!)_1

Gu Chen stood his ground and did not pursue.

It was not that he couldn't catch up, but at this stage, he could not kill Lin Bai.

Because, for Gu Chen, Lin Bai was more valuable alive.

After all, at present, everyone in the sacred land believed that Lin Bai had acquired the greatest opportunity in the sacred land before the six major holy places.

If Gu Chen were to kill Lin Bai here today, then the six major holy places would turn their attention to him.@@@@

Without a doubt, after Lin Bai's death, the six major holy places would believe that the divine heirloom had fallen into Gu Chen's hands. Moreover, with Gu Chen having slain Yuwen Wind and two others, the six major holy places would spare no expense to deal with him.

But now it was different. With Lin Bai to share the pressure, in the eyes of the six major holy places, the divine heirloom was more important than Yuwen Wind, Xi Mu, and Ouyang Yu.

After all, holy places didn't lack geniuses, but there was only one such divine heirloom throughout history in the Nine Provinces.

Therefore, the six major holy places would definitely focus on Lin Bai, who happened to be the young master of the Six Union God Sect. If they were to deal with Lin Bai, they would have to confront the magic sect.

In this way, it would greatly weaken the power of the Six Union God Sect.

With this in mind, Gu Chen decided to spare Lin Bai and let him attract fire in the spotlight.

Moreover, after using the Blood Demon Sky Escape Skill, more than half of Lin Bai's blood had burned away, deeply affecting him. His strength would surely plummet to the bottom, and it was very likely that his martial arts capabilities would regress to the Innate Realm.

The importance of essence blood to a martial artist goes without saying. Lin Bai had just burned more than half of his blood in an instant to prevent Gu Chen from catching up to him, which is why he could escape so swiftly, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Gu Chen, merged with the divine heirloom, was aware that the spiritual realm would collapse completely in a few more days.

The divine heirloom was essentially the core of the spiritual realm, which came into being because of it. Now that Gu Chen had taken it, the spiritual realm naturally could not continue to exist.

From ancient times, spanning the Ancient and Middle Ages, after endless years, the spiritual realm that had been passed down to this close ancient era had finally reached its limit.

Due to the imminent collapse of the spiritual realm, the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi there was diminishing by the day, constantly depleting.

As the owner of the divine heirloom, Gu Chen was acutely aware of the collapse of the spiritual realm.

The disintegration of a small world was a very rare experience in the Nine Provinces. Gu Chen had been quietly contemplating all this time, hoping to gain some insight.

Although the divine heirloom had already given birth to Dao and reason, containing rules and the power of worlds, with Gu Chen's current realm, even merged with the divine heirloom, he was completely unable to comprehend it.

Soon, seven days passed, and the spiritual realm finally reached the end of its life, coming to the edge of collapse.

"Sorry, Eldest Senior Brother, we still haven't found Lin Bai."

At this moment, disciples from Wuji Dao Gate, Sumeru Buddhist Sect, and Cloud Heaven Palace, along with those from the other three major holy places, had gathered together.

Hearing this, Xuan One and the others frowned. They knew that once the spiritual realm opened and everyone returned to the Nine Provinces, it would be much harder to locate Lin Bai than it was now.

If Lin Bai was determined to hide, given the vastness of the Nine Provinces, even the six major holy places, no matter how powerful, would not be able to search every inch of the Nine Provinces in a short time.

Moreover, the Six Union God Sect was extraordinarily powerful, especially Dugu Yun, the sect leader, whose martial arts prowess had reached the pinnacle of the current Nine Provinces, something even the six major holy places somewhat feared.
