Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1975: Chapter 1034: Daemon

The massive Heavenly Thunder descended from the storm cloud, causing even Sword Elder to slightly change his expression.

Li Yuanba also had a solemn expression. He activated the sword body and enhanced it with the ’Chaos Sword Intent’, transforming his flesh into a sharp sword.

At the same time, sword base appeared on his skin, forming a thin metallic film.

”Break for me!” he roared angrily.

His body transformed into sword light, striking towards the Heavenly Thunder.

The previous spatial rift was far too weak compared to this Heavenly Thunder, unable to diminish much of its might.

Instead, it made him passively endure the Heavenly Thunder’s attack, but now he was completely focused on slashing at it, channeling all the energy he could muster into this strike.

In front of him, the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ tore open the void, colliding with the descending Heavenly Thunder.

With a ’crackling’ sound, the metallic film on his skin shattered in less than a breath’s time.

Fortunately, the sword base is a special energy body, and even when it breaks, it could transform into energy and return to his body.

Li Yuanba felt his body being hit by the Heavenly Thunder, but he wasn’t afraid. Instead, he smiled slightly.

The previous full-force strike, with his body as a sword, had sliced through parts of the Heavenly Thunder.

When his body was hit by the Heavenly Thunder, he was positioned in the middle of it.

At least half of the Heavenly Thunder’s power had passed over his sides, falling behind him.

Considering the properties of Heavenly Thunder, it cannot turn back to attack.

This move had halved the Heavenly Thunder’s power, and now he had to see if his body could withstand the remainder.

The Thunder Resistance Secret Method on his skin slowed down the Heavenly Thunder’s rate of destruction on his flesh.

The Divine Power Energy of ’Innate Wood’ began its work, healing his body the instant he was injured.

Until now, Li Yuanba hadn’t used other techniques, like the treasure ’Eye of the Storm’, which he hadn’t even considered using.

He knew very well that if he used such a powerful treasure under the Heavenly Tribulation, it would undoubtedly increase the Heavenly Thunder’s power, something he did not want to happen.

Even though this was the last Heavenly Thunder, as long as the tail did not leave the storm cloud, if he called upon external forces that were too powerful, it would draw stronger Thunder Energy from the cloud.

”Slash again!” Li Yuanba shouted loudly once more.

This time, he drew energy from the Grotto Heaven, causing an explosive burst of terrifying sword light from his previously suppressed body.

The sword light slashed upwards at the storm cloud, and when it halted within the Heavenly Thunder, he was already three-quarters of the way through, very close to the storm cloud above.

This was risking life for rebirth, a feat not all Cultivators could accomplish.

To slice open the Heavenly Thunder was no easy task; it required intensely powerful Sword Intent.

And the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ possessed such potent power, allowing him to lessen the impact of the Heavenly Thunder on him in this manner.

In fact, reaching three-quarters of the way through the Heavenly Thunder, the power there was no longer unbearable for him.

The recovery speed of the Divine Power Energy of ’Innate Wood’ was slightly faster than the damage caused by the Heavenly Thunder, and the injuries sustained within it were bizarrely healing.

Finally, the last power of the ninth Heavenly Thunder vanished, and Li Yuanba felt a sudden lightness on his entire body.

He breathed a long sigh of relief. Despite having the power to predict the outcome with IBMz15’s calculations, and analyzing that he could completely withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, actually facing the Heavenly Thunder was still perilously thrilling.

The vitality within the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart’, transformed through the Divine Power of ’Innate Wood’, flowed into his wounded body.

All of his injuries were rapidly healing, and moments later, if not for the remaining charred marks, he would appear as if uninjured.

Seeing Li Yuanba successfully overcome the Heavenly Tribulation, Sword Elder’s face could barely contain his excitement.

However, he knew now was not the time to disturb Li Yuanba, as the forthcoming Heaven and Earth Reward Energy would be exceedingly important for him.

Li Yuanba stood in mid-air, with the dark clouds above his head already dissipated.

He could feel the gaze of the entire Ten Thousand Beast Sect focused on him, but he paid them no mind, continuing to heal his body while awaiting the arrival of the Heaven and Earth Reward.

The Heaven and Earth Reward Energy was divided into two parts, one appearing within him, enhancing him comprehensively.

The other part entered his Grotto Heaven, prompting a connection between the outside world and the Grotto Heaven, integrating exterior rules within the Grotto Heaven.

The Heaven and Earth Reward Energy flowed through Li Yuanba’s body, advancing his flesh and soul to the great power level.

From today onward, he would truly be a great power, possessing the long Life Span of a great power.

”Junior Li, congratulations!” Sword Elder changed his address, stepping forward with a smile after seeing the Heaven and Earth Reward Energy dissipate from Li Yuanba’s body.

”Thank you, Sword Elder, for your protection!” Li Yuanba bowed and spoke.

”I knew long ago that one day you would ascend to great power, but I did not expect that day to come so soon. If not for a prodigy like Li Shizhen preceding you, your talent could have ranked first in the history of the Cultivation World!” Sword Elder exclaimed.

How much time has passed, he still recalls when he first met Li Yuanba, considering him as a promising junior.

Yet this junior took only a few hundred years to stand on equal footing with him.
