Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1815 - 954: Decision

The time taken to contact the Sword Elder was somewhat long, but Li Yuanba could understand, after all, the Sword Elder was inside the Sword Cave Heaven. If the Sword Elder was in the middle of cultivation, Great Cultivator Lou would not be able to reach him at all.

Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait long before the voice of the Sword Elder came through.

”Yuan Ba, what have you discovered on the West Yan Continent?”

”Sword Elder, I saw a Great Power entering the Yuqing Sect’s mountain gate, and it wasn’t Great Power Luo Yuan!” Li Yuanba reported the situation.

The Sword Elder fell silent for a moment, seemingly startled by this news.

”Do not stay on the West Yan Continent any longer, return to the pavilion immediately!” The Sword Elder commanded after a brief silence.

”Sword Elder, who is this Great Power?” Li Yuanba wanted to ask for more information.

”Alas, the Yuqing Sect has summoned back an external Great Power. It seems that the Cultivation World will soon be in turmoil! Your information is very timely, allowing us to prepare in advance!” The Sword Elder sighed in response.

The communication ended, and Li Yuanba closed the emergency communication array.

As he walked out of the room where the emergency communication array was, he saw Xuan Yi pacing anxiously back and forth.

”Martial Uncle, the emergency communication array was active for too long, the White Emperor Sect noticed our location!” Xuan Yi quickly reported upon seeing Li Yuanba emerge.

”I’ll deal with the White Emperor Sect, you all prepare to evacuate!” Li Yuanba couldn’t possibly ignore the situation here, he said with a wave of his hand.

Such cross-continental communication arrays are normally not activated for long. They’re safe as long as they are within a certain time frame.

If they exceed a certain time, the fluctuations of the cross-continental communication array would be detected and pinpointed by a scanning formation.

In normal times, the cross-continental communication array would only be activated for a very short period to send intelligence, then closed immediately.

This time, it was only due to the need to find the Sword Elder that the cross-continental communication array was activated for so long, causing them to be detected.

If it weren’t for the emergency, Li Yuanba wouldn’t have activated the cross-continental communication array here, since other communication methods couldn’t contact the Sword Elder directly.

”Thank you, Martial Uncle!” Xuan Yi felt relieved upon hearing this.

As an intelligence agent, as long as he’s not caught on the spot, he can assume a new identity and hide again.

”They’re coming rather quickly!” Li Yuanba looked into the distance and said with a smile.

In a moment of mental concentration, the Xingyi Sword shot out, sending forth a Jian Family Sword Light over the marketplace.

The Jian Family Sword Light, able to remain suspended in the void for a long time, had almost become Li Yuanba’s trademark.

The aura approaching from the distance ceased at the sight of the Jian Family Sword Light, quickly turned around, and departed.

”Smart choice!” Li Yuanba said indifferently.

He didn’t even know who the other party was, possibly a Great Cultivator of the White Emperor Sect, or even a Great Cultivator from an affiliated power, otherwise, they wouldn’t have come so quickly.

However, regardless of who came, in the Cultivation World, few Great Cultivators would dare provoke after seeing Li Yuanba’s Jian Family Sword Light.

Xuan Yi was busy organizing items to take with him, and when he saw the Jian Family Sword Light manifested in the sky, his eyes were filled with admiration.

The solidified Jian Family Sword Light almost suppressed the entire Cultivation World, symbolizing the strongest sword cultivator under the Great Power.

With Li Yuanba present, Xuan Yi had ample time to pack up all the valuable items from this place, during which not a single cultivator dared approach, for fear of causing any misunderstandings.

After Xuan Yi left, Li Yuanba didn’t linger. He used ’One Step to Heaven,’ his figure disappeared from the spot, leaving only the Jian Family Sword Light in the air.

Staying was extremely risky for Li Yuanba; the West Yan Continent was already unstable, and now with an added Great Power who bore hostility towards him from the Yuqing Sect, his situation became even more perilous. Yet, he stayed until Xuan Yi was safe before departing.

Once he traveled a certain distance away, he summoned the Golden Winged Dapeng and flew swiftly toward the Central State Continent.

Elsewhere, on the Dongqi Continent at Ten Thousand Beast Sect, Li Shiming invited Grandmaster Hu, and together with Yin Shilan, met Grandmaster Hu in the great hall.

”Shizhen, it’s been a long time since I last came to your place for tea!” Grandmaster Hu said with a laugh as he entered the hall.

He had ample cultivation resources, requiring more time for cultivation, and with him holding the highest authority in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, he had become extremely busy, leaving him little time to visit Li Shiming.

Li Shiming, being the type who disliked venturing out, spent his days enjoying romance with Yin Shilan.

”Master, I plan to take Lan’er on a journey; the sect should stop accepting alchemy commissions!” Li Shiming said with a smile as he poured a cup of spiritual tea for Grandmaster Hu.

”Why so sudden?” Grandmaster Hu was taken aback, looking at Li Shiming instead of the spiritual tea.

Li Shiming’s previous plan was to stay at the sect and not venture out.

Such a sudden change naturally surprised him.

”Some unexpected situations have arisen, so I will be leaving for some time!” Li Shiming vaguely explained, without elaborating on the specifics.

”Be sure to stay safe!” Grandmaster Hu reminded, then laughed: ”With your strength, any place in the Cultivation World is within your reach!”

Li Shiming chuckled; he wouldn’t tell Grandmaster Hu it was the appearance of a new Great Power at the Yuqing Sect that prompted his decision to travel.

”After I leave, the sect should spread the news of my departure!” Li Shiming continued.
