Cultivation Starts with Rejuvenation

This is why there was an urgent need to gather materials for the Array Base of a Tier Three Grand Array.

The Tier Three Grand Array, covering the entire eastern front defense, requires an enormous amount of materials, so it can only be transported via Flying Boat.

”Listen to orders, this mission determines whether the front line can hold, and affects the situation of the battle. No mistakes are allowed!

You two open the way ahead, maintain a distance of a thousand miles, and report any abnormalities promptly.

You four protect the left wing, you four protect the right wing, you three take the rear, and the rest follow me on the boat.”

With Master Zhang of the Ten Thousand Laws Palace giving commands one by one, the guard team of twenty-nine people set off in a mighty procession.

Among these twenty-nine people, besides Master Zhang with Fake Pill Cultivation, the rest all have Late Period Foundation Establishment Cultivation, and are the True Disciples of the Three Sects, as well as the direct lineage disciples of the Ten Thousand Laws Palace.

”Senior Brother Li, all accompanying the Flying Boat are disciples of the Holy Palace.” After rapidly flying to the forefront a thousand miles, Yao Rui transmitted to Li Ji’an with a frown, quite displeased.

She was respectful to Li Ji’an not because her nature changed, but because she admitted in her heart that Li Ji’an was stronger than her, and her inherent rebelliousness gave her a natural rejection against authority.

Li Ji’an remained composed, although he disdained such actions from the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, he had seen much in his six lifetimes and was not surprised.

After a month together, their arrogance was ingrained, considering themselves the overlords of the Holy Palace, believing the disciples of the Holy Palace were outstanding in this era, and asserting that only they could protect the supply resources against demon cultivator attacks.

Of course, they also believed that they were the future of the Celestial Cyan Domain, with limitless potential.

”Do not be distracted, the demon cultivators are very likely to come and raid the supplies.” Li Ji’an cautioned solemnly, while fully activating his Divine Sense with Mid-stage True Core Cultivation.

He did not perceive a major crisis.

Even if demon cultivators want to cut off supplies, at most Mid-stage Core Formation demon cultivators might come secretly, as the Two Elders of the Ten Thousand Laws Palace and the Three Sects’ Late-stage Core Formation Ascendants would certainly focus on their highest power.

If Mid-stage Core Formation demon cultivators attack, Li Ji’an is confident he can detect it early.

Moreover, this area is behind the Three Sects Alliance Army; if the enemy truly attacks, it must be quick, as any delay could lead to being blocked by the returning Ascendants at the front, sealing their doom.

So even if they are ambushed ahead, they would not attack Li Ji’an and Yao Rui, the scouts.

After three days covering half the journey, on the second-day dusk, Li Ji’an suddenly felt a stir in his heart.

Faintly sensing weak fluctuations on the right wing, though the distance was somewhat far, the sensing was not clear, and the identity could not be confirmed.

”Hmm?” Upon further investigation, Li Ji’an’s eyes flickered, finding several familiar silver corpses within the land beneath them.

At this moment, seven silver corpses merged with the ground, each wearing a black cloak.

Corpse puppets, when not activated, are inherently dead, devoid of magical power aura, and with that black cloak concealing them, they are indeed difficult to detect.

If not for Li Ji’an’s Mid-stage True Core Divine Sense, already sensing an anomaly from afar and then carefully investigating this area, he could easily have been deceived.

Without any hesitation, Li Ji’an launched an attack towards that location but only within the distance of his Late Period Foundation Establishment Divine Sense significant range.

”Swoosh!” Yao Rui reacted instantly, her whole body ready to ignite in flames.

”Senior Brother Li?” However, after scrutinizing several times, nothing was found.

Meanwhile, the rear guard team sensed the anomaly here, immediately sending inquiry signals.

Li Ji’an paused slightly, responding to Yao Rui on the spot: ”I seemed to see a shadow just now, but my Divine Sense didn’t detect anything; I attacked to probe...”

A moment later, Master Zhang replied: ”Very well! We will be more vigilant... However, don’t be too tense; demon cultivators may not dare to come.”

Receiving the reply, Li Ji’an felt slightly relieved.

No matter how he perceives these disciples from the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, during the war between the Two Domains, Li Ji’an still has a clear perspective.

As for potentially exposing his extraordinary Divine Sense due to this, under current circumstances, there is no alternative.

Although he already has a draft plan, being able to stay in the Sect is naturally better.

Unless absolutely necessary, fleeing to an unfamiliar place also carries various unforeseen risks.

A false scare, the team continued proceeding in formation.

Until the five Spirit Boats reached the recent location where Li Ji’an warned, a sudden change occurred.

”Swoosh swoosh swoosh~” From the ground below, seven waves of magical power, comparable to Fake Pill aura, suddenly surged, and then a silver glow flashed. Sharp attack sounds echoed from the protective Dharma Shields outside the five Flying Boats.

”Enemy attack!” Master Zhang shouted loudly, immediately flying down to engage the silver corpses.

”Silver corpses of the Corpse Puppet Sect? Hmph, everyone be careful, the owners of the corpse puppets must be near.”

The fifteen True Disciples of the Holy Palace aboard the Flying Boats were also familiar with silver corpses, having specifically studied techniques against the Corpse Puppet Sect.

”Boom!” Before the Holy Palace disciples finished speaking, several figures rapidly flew from the direction Li Ji’an had sensed. Simultaneously, a dark Demon Blade seemed to cut through the sky, sweeping towards the five Spirit Boats.

The aim was clear, not to seize but to destroy!

”This is bad!” As the silver corpses rose, Li Ji’an and Yao Rui returned to support, and at that moment saw the sweeping blade light, causing their hearts to sink.

He clearly felt it was a strike from Magical Treasure jointly activated by two True Pill Early Stage True Men; even a Mid-stage Core Formation True Man, without a treasure at hand, might not withstand it.

”Hmph!”

Yet just as the Demon Blade was about to strike the Spirit Boats, a cold snort came from a disciple of the Holy Palace.
