Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1326: Chapter 709: Mission_2

Most terrifyingly, every foundation of the White Emperor Sect that was attacked had been emptied, and merely rebuilding these foundations would take a great deal of effort and time.

Among the hundreds of foundations of the White Emperor Sect, nearly half of the Guardian Cultivators were killed, which alone meant the sect lost over a hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators.

The White Emperor Sect reacted by dispatching several Great Cultivators leading combat-experienced Nascent Soul Cultivators to the vicinity of the four strongholds of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion on the West Yan Continent.

This confrontation could prevent the Sword Cultivators of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion from looting at will, thus limiting the battlefield to the vicinity of the four strongholds, thereby reducing losses for the White Emperor Sect.

Of course, this approach was not foolproof, but as long as most of the Sword Cultivators were intercepted, preventing them from looting everywhere, it would be enough for the White Emperor Sect to deal with the remaining few Sword Cultivators.

Because of the Divine Foot Skill, Li Yuanba destroyed five foundations of the White Emperor Sect in just one day.

After receiving a recall message from Great Cultivator Lou, he stopped his continuous tasks.

The reason he completed five tasks in succession was thanks to the planning of the IBMz15, which calculated the most suitable route and selected the most valuable targets.

As Li Yuanba returned to the stronghold, he sensed the aura of a Great Cultivator shooting up into the sky two hundred miles away.

This was a warning, cautioning the Sword Cultivators to restrain themselves.

Although a Great Cultivator couldn’t intervene in the battles, this intimidation was enough to make most Sword Cultivators act with caution, not daring to rob too brazenly.

"Huh!" Li Yuanba, while continuously using Space Movement, sensed a battle aura and found a Sword Cultivator being besieged by four White Emperor Sect cultivators.

It seemed that this Sword Cultivator was unfortunate to be ambushed by the White Emperor Sect’s cultivators on their way back to the stronghold.

He certainly wouldn’t watch and do nothing; his figure flashed towards that direction.

As he drew near the battlefield, he stopped, using ’Divine Eye’ to scan the area next to the battlefield.

Then, with a wave of his hand, ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ was thrown out, falling into a void.

’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ expanded in the air into a gigantic mountain peak, descending towards the ground.

In that void, there was a Concealing Array with three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners hiding within.

Originally, the early-stage Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, given the White Emperor Sect’s battle strength, could have been easily dealt with, but they were not satisfied with just slaying an early-stage Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator.

They used the early-stage Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator as bait, surrounding him with four White Emperor Sect early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.

This was intentionally done to lure in Sword Cultivators seeking to rescue.

Then, with a surprise attack by three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners, they intended to eliminate the rescuers.

The idea was good, but the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Li Yuanba had an acute sense of formation aura, which they hadn’t considered among the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Sword Cultivators, there were Array Masters present.

When the three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners sensed something was wrong, ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ had already enveloped the Concealing Array.

The force field of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ spanned a radius of a kilometer in which three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners were entirely within the force field.

They felt overwhelming pressure that affected their body’s movements.

Only because Li Yuanba dared not let ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ expose its spirit treasure aura, suppressing it to the Top-Grade Fourth-Grade level, did they have a slight chance to breathe.

With a wave of his hand, the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword flew into the force field of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak.’

Though the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword was somewhat affected, its speed was still extremely fast, despite the impact.

As the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword entered into the force field of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, there was no need to worry about its aura leaking outside, so he completely unleashed the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword’s constraints.

This was a Spirit Treasure-level Xingyi Sword, and the three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners couldn’t resist its attack, even if they weren’t in the gravity force field of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak.’

Let alone that after being suppressed by the gravity force field, their mobility was down to only a third.

The Xingyi Sword swept across the bodies of the three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners, slashing away their vitality.

The three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners immediately went into Nascent Soul Emergence, trying to escape using their Nascent Souls.

But within the gravity force field, the Nascent Souls were also influenced, although the impact wasn’t large, it still affected their speed.

Li Yuanba was prepared, and the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword returned to sweep once more; after that, the three Nascent Souls perished.

The Xingyi Sword subdued its aura, flying out of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’s’ range as he beckoned it back, and ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ returned to his hand.

The Sword Cultivator and the four Nascent Soul Cultivators halted their actions, none daring to act, as the aura of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ released by Li Yuanba was too terrifying, making them realize Li Yuanba was now the battlefield’s decider.

The four Nascent Soul Cultivators contemplated waiting for the three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners to deal with Li Yuanba, but they soon saw the three Practitioners emerge from the Concealing Array only to be effortlessly slain in a matter of seconds.

Li Yuanba’s speed in slaying the three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners was almost instantaneous.

The four Nascent Soul Cultivators exchanged glances, their eyes full of terror.

"Escape!" was their only thought.

But as early-stage Nascent Soul Practitioners, how could they escape the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword, even though it was again constrained to Top-Grade Fourth-Grade quality, this barely affected its speed.

"Thank you, Martial Uncle, for saving my life!" The Sword Cultivator who survived advanced to pay respect.

"Return first, it’s not safe here!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and said.

He sensed a slight instability in the aura of the distant Great Cultivator, aware that the battle here might have been sensed by the White Emperor Sect’s Great Cultivator.

Since the White Emperor Sect had prepared a temporary base to confront the temporary stronghold of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, they surely had laid out scanning arrays.

The scanning arrays could perceive occurrences within two hundred miles between the temporary base and stronghold, facilitating the Great Cultivator’s grasp of the battleground.

As the aura of the Great Cultivator from the White Emperor Sect surged, seemingly ready to intervene, Great Cultivator Lou’s Sword Intent simultaneously surged upward.

If there was the slightest movement from the White Emperor Sect’s Great Cultivator, awaiting him would be Great Cultivator Lou’s full-powered sword strike.

The White Emperor Sect’s Great Cultivator lacked the courage to escalate the battle to the Great Cultivator Level unless directed by the sect’s high order, he could only watch his cultivators fall.

"Hmph!" He snorted coldly, unclear whether it was aimed at Li Yuanba or his own cultivators.

Under normal circumstances on this battlefield, since nowhere on the battlefield was more than two hundred miles away, one could escape to the shelter of their own Great Cultivator.

Theoretically, unless being surrounded, one could flee into the protection range of their Great Cultivator here.

However, despite their strength, three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners and four Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners were effortlessly slain by a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, without even a chance for their Nascent Souls to escape.

Seeing the opposing Great Cultivator intimidated by Great Cultivator Lou, Li Yuanba smiled, calmly began cleaning the battlefield.

The Sword Cultivator saved earlier did not share his composure, after paying respects with a bow, flew towards the temporary stronghold.

After completing the battlefield cleanup, Li Yuanba flew to the temporary stronghold.

Upon entering the stronghold, he went to the task office immediately to deliver the mission.

Great Cultivator Lou had witnessed Li Yuanba’s intervention, but due to the influence of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’s’ gravity field, hadn’t noticed the quality change upon the eruption of the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword.

However, he had witnessed Li Yuanba’s astonishing combat prowess, Li Yuanba’s talent in Sword Cultivation far exceeded Great Cultivator Lou’s initial estimates.

"Why is his talent in Sword Cultivation so extraordinary, too!" Great Cultivator Lou couldn’t help but complain a bit.

Li Yuanba’s talent in Sword Cultivation was so strong, it left him reluctant to continue persuading Li Yuanba to focus on the path of Alchemy.
