“[He… has reached Foundation Establishment!?]”

Realizing this, Yuan Hongyuan’s face revealed a twist of conflict. The Formation he had set up was intermediate grade Rank-2, designed specifically for opponents at the Foundation Establishment level; it could even bring down cultivators flying in the sky.

If used against Qi Practitioners, even if a hundred of them fell into the Formation, Yuan Hongyuan could slaughter them all one by one.

However, Chen Mobai had reached Foundation Establishment!

He remembered the appraisal given to Chen Mobai by the entire Divine Wood Sect.

An unparalleled genius in Sword Dao!

Invincible among peers!

Although Yuan Hongyuan was very confident in himself, believing his magical duel abilities to be among the upper echelons of his rank, and fortified by the Formation he had set up in advance, he dared to battle even those in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

But, Chen Mobai was a Sword Cultivator!

Moreover, he was an unparalleled genius among Sword Cultivators. Yuan Hongyuan truly lacked confidence in himself to win against such a prodigy.

“The information I gathered earlier indicated that Chen Mobai was invincible among Qi cultivators during the Sect competition. After that, he obtained the Foundation Building Pill refined by Zeng Woyou. I didn’t expect that in less than half a year, he would have successfully reached Foundation Establishment.”

After piecing together all the clues in his mind, Yuan Hongyuan’s evaluation of Chen Mobai was sky-high.

This man was the first genius of the Divine Wood Sect after the family was divided!

Joined the Sect for three years, the first true disciple.

In a place like Yuhu Market, merely a Rank-2 Spirit Vein land, he dared to ingest the Foundation Building Pill, and even succeeded in establishing his foundation.

This revealed his unparalleled talent. It might even be possible that he had already comprehended a higher realm of Sword Dao at that time, which would explain why he chose to seclude himself in a place of average spiritual quality. Without the Foundation Building Pill, he might have been able to break through this stage with his sword alone.

Thinking of having to face off against an unparalleled prodigy like this, risking life and death, Yuan Hongyuan no longer held any confidence.

And, if he wasn’t certain of success, he would absolutely not take risks.

Thus, he clenched his teeth.

Finally, he chose to conceal his aura, allowing Chen Mobai to fly past overhead without initiating the Formation.

[In any case, this information was wrong. If I think of an excuse, I should be able to muddle through.]

Almost half a day after Chen Mobai had disappeared, Yuan Hongyuan only then collected his Formation and stealthily returned to Black Cloud Mountain.

Half a month later, Yuan Shaoyuan and the others, pretending that their business talks had fallen through, returned. When they asked about their Patriarch, the latter feigned a sword injury, coughing weakly twice before recounting the “life-or-death” struggle that day.

“That Chen Mobai, as expected of a Sword Dao genius, has already established his foundation. Unaware of this, I used the Five Clouds Binding Formation to detain him. However, his Sword Qi was too overpowering, after dueling for a day and a night, both my protective Magic Artifact and the Large Formation were consecutively shattered by his domineering Sword Qi. In the end, only after sacrificing a life-preserving talisman was I able to barely escape from his sword.”

Hearing how intense the battle had been, Yuan Shaoyuan and the others gasped.

It was fortunate that they hadn’t risked ambushing him outside of the market.

Otherwise, they might already be dead and cold now, and after death, disguises would be useless. The Divine Wood Sect had many means to identify their origin from their corpses.

If that were the case, Black Cloud Mountain would probably be flooded with blood from the massacre by this Number One True Disciple of the Divine Wood Sect by now.

Who would have thought that he would establish his foundation in such a place, and wonder why he’d been missing for two whole months!

Truly deserving of being recognized as an unparalleled Sword Dao genius by the whole Divine Wood Sect. Even their patriarch, who was almost at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and had the advantage of the Formation and the terrain, was no match for him, only managing to escape in disarray..
