Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1466: Chapter 779: Wang He (Part 2)

”Yuan Ba, are you hurt?” Great Cultivator Lou looked up and down at Li Yuanba and asked with concern.

His worry was understandable. Given Li Yuanba’s healing abilities in ’Innate Wood’ Divine Skills, as long as he’s alive, recovery from injuries is just a matter of using the ’Innate Wood’ Divine Skills a few more times.

”I’m fine. Master Qiao suddenly attacked me, but I counterattacked and killed him!” Li Yuanba pointed at the corpse of Master Qiao on the ground and explained.

”Mr. Li, we can vouch for this matter; it was Master Qiao who broke the rules. The consequences of this should be borne by the Yuqing Sect themselves!” Hongguang Venerable was the first to stand out and say.

Then almost all the Great Cultivators nodded in agreement with Hongguang Venerable’s words, expressing their stance.

”Yuan Ba, take the corpse. I reckon the Yuqing Sect will have no face to demand it back!” Great Cultivator Lou pointed at Master Qiao’s corpse and said.

He said this to intentionally convey the attitude of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to the Yuqing Sect through the presence of many Great Cultivators here.

Everyone knows, Li Yuanba excels in Corpse Refining. Although it’s strange for a Sword Cultivator from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to be skilled in Corpse Refining, no one can say anything because through the Hell Cave Heaven task, all cultivators have seen the importance of Li Yuanba’s five mid-stage Golden Corpses.

And the corpse of a Great Cultivator from a superpower is certainly the best main material for refining late-stage Golden Corpses.

Li Yuanba also understood what Great Cultivator Lou meant. In fact, even if Great Cultivator Lou didn’t say so, he was going to collect Master Qiao’s body.

Such opportunities are rare; the corpse of a Great Cultivator from a superpower, and a Thunder Cultivator no less, is truly not easily obtainable.

He, in front of the many Great Cultivators, collected Master Qiao’s corpse, and also took the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ and soul crystal ring from the body.

During this process, all the Great Cultivators saw the fatal wound on Master Qiao’s body. There was only one wound on Master Qiao’s body, which was a fatal injury caused by a flying sword.

This discovery made all the Great Cultivators have a clearer understanding of Li Yuanba’s combat power. Master Qiao was slain by Li Yuanba’s Lifebound Flying Sword.

From the moment Infinite Sect’s Great Cultivator discovered the isolated space, enabling Li Yuanba’s aura to disappear, to when he collected the ’Infinite Great Isolation Decree’, the combat process didn’t last long, just over thirty breaths, and perhaps not all of it was fighting.

”Yuan Ba, you shouldn’t have risked it!” Back in the second base’s Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion tent, Great Cultivator Lou said in a deep voice.

”Master Qiao had hired cultivators who were constantly watching me, just waiting for me to show a flaw. Instead of showing a flaw, it’s better to choose a battlefield that favors me to completely resolve Master Qiao!” Li Yuanba spread his hands and explained.

Great Cultivator Lou wanted to say more but refrained, for Li Yuanba’s combat power and status, saying more would seem inappropriate.

Grandmaster Wu stood nearby, always watching with a smile.

Though his contact with Li Yuanba wasn’t long, he acknowledged Li Yuanba’s style more.

In the days that followed, Li Yuanba returned to his previous life of battle.

Every two days, he needed to augment the ’Innate Wood’ Divine Skills for the Great Cultivators and some important core cultivators. When Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion went on missions, he was also the most diligent Sword Cultivator.

Amidst the killing, his ’Chaos Sword Intent’ grew increasingly powerful.

Such combat-filled days, ironically, were extremely peaceful for Li Yuanba; the slaughter for him was like honing his Sword Intent.

Previously, no matter how he honed his Sword Intent, he never had such a long period of slaughter.

Unfortunately, such days didn’t last long. A month later, one day, reinforcements from the Yuqing Sect and White Emperor Sect arrived.

On that day, Li Yuanba was in his tent, practicing the ’Unnamed Sword Manual’ with his fourth-grade Sword Foundation, when he suddenly stopped his actions.

He sensed a powerful lightning aura, extremely familiar; if his sensing was correct, it was Master Wang He from the Yuqing Sect.

He never thought the Yuqing Sect would dispatch Master Wang He.

Looking at all the superpowers, none sent their strongest Great Cultivator.

Master Wang He isn’t just an ordinary Great Cultivator but a Great Cultivator at its peak.

In the Cultivation World, Great Powers rarely make moves, and those at the Great Cultivator Peak are the most top-tier combat power.

There might be half-step Great Powers, but such individuals rarely leave seclusion, always searching for a glimpse of advancement.

Li Yuanba walked out of the tent, noticing Great Cultivator Lou also sensed Master Wang He’s aura and came out to investigate.

”Yuan Ba, don’t act alone anymore!” Great Cultivator Lou said with a trace of concern in his eyes.

Even if Li Yuanba is mighty, he didn’t believe Li Yuanba could battle Master Wang He.

Master Wang He stands at the pinnacle of Great Cultivators; only a fellow Great Cultivator would understand the immense gap between ordinary Great Cultivators and someone like Master Wang.

”I will be careful!” Li Yuanba nodded in agreement.

He also knew, although he might have some means to harm other Great Cultivators, handling someone like Master Wang He won’t be easy.

He’s not even sure if his ’Chaos Sword Intent’ could break through Master Wang He’s defenses.

Even the two thousand-plus energy-converted flying swords from ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, imbued with Great Cultivator’s Sword Intent, can’t guarantee suppression of Master Wang He.

When a cultivator’s strength reaches a certain level, it’s not simply a numbers game anymore.

Perhaps Li Yuanba could attack Master Wang He a thousand times, and Master Wang He could block all, but if Master Wang He attacked just once, Li Yuanba would perish.

Hearing Li Yuanba agree, Great Cultivator Lou felt somewhat relieved.

They both looked towards the reinforcements; it was two teams, one led by Master Wang He and another Thunder Cultivator from the Yuqing Sect, and the second led by two Great Cultivators from the White Emperor Sect.

Both teams had a hundred Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioners, likely filling the previous deficit.

”Wang He greets fellow allies, long time no see!” Master Wang He stood above the second base, looking down and said soberly.

He didn’t hide his strength; everyone present, whether Nascent Soul Middle Stage or Great Cultivators, felt the terrifying pressure.

The Great Cultivators exchanged glances, then all flew into the air, hovering level with Master Wang He, preventing their aura from being suppressed too heavily by him.

The Great Cultivators were remarkably coordinated, possibly due to prolonged joint combat, their auras interconnected, collectively resisting Master Wang He’s presence.

For a moment, Master Wang He couldn’t oppress these Great Cultivators, though there was a considerable gap in battle power.

”Greetings Mr. Wang, didn’t expect you would come; I suppose future cleansing tasks will be much easier!” A Great Cultivator said indifferently.

Due to Master Wang He’s previous provocations, it unexpectedly brought unprecedented unity among all Great Cultivators at the second base.

”Where is Li Yuanba? Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion has birthed an exceptional genius who can slay Great Cultivators!” Master Wang He ignored the targeted tone of the opposite Great Cultivator’s words and glanced over the second base.

His gaze fell on Li Yuanba; there wasn’t much to search. Recently, having achieved significant upgrades in ’Chaos Sword Intent’, Li Yuanba couldn’t conceal himself amongst the thousand-plus Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioners, making him stand out.

It’s not that Li Yuanba didn’t wish to hide his Sword Intent, but a series of continuous battles accelerated its growth so rapidly, concealing it would hinder its development.

Besides, at the second base, all cultivators’ auras are outwardly expressed due to prolonged battles; just amongst the Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioners, his aura is particularly prominent.
