Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1317: Chapter 705: Severing the Root

All around this area, countless warning formations were densely set up. If any cultivator approaches, an alarm would immediately be triggered.

Without the arrival of Great Cultivator Luo Pei, this gambling duel certainly won’t begin. This is a trap set for Great Cultivator Luo Pei. If the main character, Great Cultivator Luo Pei, doesn’t come, what’s the use of setting up the trap?

Not only is Great Cultivator Mao Jing anxious, but even the other great cultivators present are also feeling restless.

So many great cultivators were mobilized this time. If nothing is achieved, it might become a joke in the Cultivation World.

Furthermore, both the White Emperor Sect and the Fuliu Sect have paid a high price for this trap just to deal with the immense problem of Great Cultivator Luo Pei.

Whether or not Great Cultivator Luo Pei appears, the cost has already been paid by the White Emperor Sect and Fuliu Sect.

Just as all the great cultivators were waiting, suddenly Great Cultivator Mao Jing’s expression changed dramatically.

Great Cultivator Mao Jing reached out and took out a jade token, and at this moment, the jade token continuously flashed with light.

"What has happened?" A great cultivator beside him noticed his unusual expression and asked.

"I must return to the sect immediately!" Great Cultivator Mao Jing didn’t answer and said in a deep voice.

As he spoke, he took out his identity jade disc, intending to contact the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Fuliu Sect to inquire about what had happened with the Yimu Cave Heaven.

Hearing Great Cultivator Mao Jing’s words, all the great cultivators present understood that something had gone wrong.

Considering that both the great cultivators of the Fuliu Sect were here, and judging from Great Cultivator Mao Jing’s expression, it seemed something happened to Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate.

"How cunning of Luo Pei!" The great cultivator who asked the question gasped and murmured.

He was also considering whether it was worthwhile to make an enemy of such a scheming great cultivator.

Originally, this was just a problem for the Fuliu Sect and White Emperor Sect. If they managed to resolve the issue with Great Cultivator Luo Pei, it would be fine, but if they failed, would Great Cultivator Luo Pei retaliate against their sects as well?

Even though their sects are superpowers, that doesn’t mean they can have great cultivators stationed at every resource point or base.

Even if there were great cultivators stationed, look at Great Cultivator Ning Xi of the White Emperor Sect, he was still killed by Great Cultivator Luo Pei.

"Since Mr. Mao has business to attend to, I’ll leave first as well!" He thought of this, he said to Great Cultivator Mao Jing.

After speaking, he turned and flew away without the slightest hesitation.

Another ally great cultivator also understood his intentions and left together, as this matter was unrelated to them. Since they couldn’t deal with Great Cultivator Luo Pei, they decided to avoid getting involved in the troubles.

At this time, Great Cultivator Mao Jing couldn’t care about much else. He sent a communication technique to Great Cultivator Hu Shiming and immediately activated the wood escape technique to return to the sect at full speed.

He also understood that the Fuliu Sect was far away from here; by the time he returned, it would be too late. However, he knew even better that the Fuliu Sect had no combat power that could match Great Cultivator Luo Pei.

Moreover, Great Cultivator Luo Pei had lived in the Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate for a period, and he was fully aware of the secrets within the Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate.

The jade token he just took out was the control jade token of Yimu Cave Heaven. The information transmitted from the jade token indicated that a major event occurred in the Yimu Cave Heaven.

The Yimu Cave Heaven, being bound to the sect’s mountain gate, cannot be moved at will. When a powerful being left this cave heaven, they solidified the entrance of Yimu Cave Heaven within the mountain gate.

Although this prevented Yimu Cave Heaven from being moved, it allowed Yimu Cave Heaven to coexist with the Fuliu Sect, eliminating the possibility of unfilial disciples in future generations taking the cave heaven away privately.

Great Cultivator Luo Pei excavated the ’Innate Wood’ divine skills inheritance ancient tree from within Yimu Cave Heaven. Not just the ancient tree, but he also dug up the soil nurturing the ancient tree around it.

He first stored the ancient tree in his soul crystal ring. After losing the ancient tree, he immediately sensed a subtle change in the spiritual energy within Yimu Cave Heaven.

Originally, the spiritual energy within Yimu Cave Heaven was purely wood element spiritual energy, an ideal place for wood element cultivators to practice.

Now, however, he sensed a trace of chaotic spiritual energy appearing. Although chaotic spiritual energy was still very scarce, considering that the ancient tree was just taken away, it seemed that the spiritual energy in Yimu Cave Heaven might not maintain its purity of wood elementic energy in the future.

He doesn’t care about this; what does it have to do with him?

With a flash of his body, he flew towards the other direction.

His target was the Treasure Pavilion. At this time, the anomaly within Yimu Cave Heaven attracted the attention of the cultivators inside, who all flew out of their abodes wanting to know what happened within the cave heaven.

At this moment, the message from Great Cultivator Mao Jing came back, and a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator of relatively high status in the sect received the message, but even this mid-stage cultivator didn’t know what had happened.

However, when Great Cultivator Mao Jing mentioned that Great Cultivator Luo Pei might have already invaded Yimu Cave Heaven, this mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator immediately passed this message to all the Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Fuliu Sect indeed has the foundation of a former superpower. Although they no longer have a mighty being overseeing them, once their Nascent Soul cultivators gathered, they quickly formed a battle formation and started searching for Great Cultivator Luo Pei’s whereabouts.

At this moment, Great Cultivator Luo Pei appeared beside the Treasure Pavilion. Li Shiming had studied the formations here before because he was quite curious about the Treasure Pavilion.

Even though the Treasure Pavilion appeared to be a wooden building, it was actually a special magical treasure.
