Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 749: Chapter 421 Interception

Li Yuanba flew above the sea surface, with Elder Wei Xi to his left about fifty meters away, and Grand Elder Mo Bao to his right at the same distance.

Following him were Grand Elder Lan Hongxi and Great Elder Ling Qin, which made five elders entering the battlefield together.

Li Yuanba did not overestimate his abilities, for he did not want to rely on luck every time. The remaining two elders from the Skywalk Trading Company, one a Thunder Cultivator and the other a Body Refining cultivator, were not easy to deal with.

Therefore, he agreed to join the four elders, considering this a collective action of the six major sects. As for Qianye Temple, after losing the Wisdom Fire Arhat, they had not sent a second Great Arhat.

In Li Yuanba’s mind, there was another scene—a surveillance feed coming from the unmanned satellite system controlled by his original body, Li Shiming.

These elder-level cultivators had been here for over an hour, and had encountered many cultivators along the way. It seemed that the news of their appearance must have already reached Yongle Island, but it appeared there was no reaction from there.

At the core of Yongle Island, Elder Jin Kai was looking at the intelligence in his hand.

In front of him, Elder You Xia and Great Elder Sun Ao stood with their hands clasped in a respectful manner.

”Sun Ao, the cultivators we sent out have found a suspicious place. Can you go and find out if it’s what we are looking for?” Elder Jin Kai casually threw a Jade Scroll to Great Elder Sun Ao and ordered in a deep voice.

”Yes!” Great Elder Sun Ao took the Jade Scroll and bowed in response.

”Elder Jin Kai, the elders from the six major sects are provoking us outside. What should we do?” Elder You Xia cautiously inquired.

”Why bother with them?” Elder Jin Kai waved his hand indifferently.

Although he was the instigator of the Yongle Battlefield, he did not value it greatly.

”Elder Jin Kai, the Golden Core cultivators that have joined us did so on the condition that we can confront the six major sects. If they believe we cannot oppose them, I’m afraid many Golden Core cultivators will leave!” Elder You Xia expressed his concern.

To attract these Golden Core cultivators from the Beishu Continent, the contracts had been made very lenient, but the rewards were exceptionally high.

”Sun Ao is going to investigate, and you alone will not be able to handle those elders. First, get the Golden Core cultivators who have joined us to take action. Kill more of the opposing sect’s Golden Core cultivators. We’ve invested so much resources, not to raise them for nothing!” Elder Jin Kai said after some thought.

The fall of Elder Shi Ming had disrupted Elder Jin Kai’s plans.

He also did not want to call for more elders from the Skywalk Trading Company headquarters. Skywalk Trading Company had enemies too, and mobilizing too much force could affect the stability in other regions.

”Yes, Elder Jin Kai!” Elder You Xia bowed and agreed.

He was very interested in meeting the Golden Core Mid-stage Cultivator who had killed Elder Shi Ming, Li Yuanba, who was rumored to be the first below the Nascent Soul on the Beishu Continent.

But since Elder Jin Kai had spoken, he must obey the order.

”What we need is to buy time, not to fight for a quick victory here. When we find our target and before leaving, you can unleash a massacre as you please!” Elder Jin Kai knew his thoughts and shook his head as he spoke.

After leaving the core area, Grand Elder Sun Ao donned a black robe, a treasure that concealed his aura.

The grand elder-level Body Refining aura on him was concealed by the black robe as he flashed to the left, indicating that he planned to bypass the battlefield and the opposing coast.

With the treasure concealing his aura allowing him free passage through the areas controlled by mid-sized sects on either side without being detected by their Formations.

He did not use invisibility, perhaps he was extremely confident that his movements would not be discovered. The strong suit of this treasure was that it did not affect the strength of his power; confident in his grand elder-level Body Refining capabilities, he believed he would not be detected by any cultivator as long as the Formations did not sense his aura.

However, he was unaware that the unmanned satellite system monitoring this region had taken special notice of him as he flew toward the direction of the mid-sized sect on the left.

That direction was blockaded by cultivators from both the mid-sized sect and the six major sects, and should he be intercepted there, he would be attacked by a group of Golden Core cultivators along with the cooperation of a Sect Formation.

Of course, such blockades were against large numbers of cultivators; no matter how perfect the blockade was, there would always be loopholes for individual cultivators with special abilities.

But for many days, this was the first cultivator who attempted to pass through from the left side.

When Li Shiming spotted Great Elder Sun Ao, although he did not know the elder’s identity, he still left the sect’s gates.

As long as he was not heading toward the Yongle Battlefield, the sect would not intervene.

After leaving the sect gates, he activated the ”Charming Soul Concealing Secret Technique” and the ”Sky Concealing Secret Technique,” moving extremely quickly through the shadows with ”Step by Step Lotus.”

Curious about what exactly Skywalk Trading Company was after, he had decided not to intercept the cultivator right away but to follow and uncover his purpose instead.

On Li Yuanba’s side, he held a Golden Core Middle Stage Cultivator in one hand, ready to use ”Telepathy” to invade his spirit.

For those whose spirits were comparatively weak, having been forcibly elevated to Golden Core Middle Stage with the aid of Spirit Pills, there would be no energy left to resist his ”Telepathy” at such close range.
