Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1410: Chapter 751: Return to the Sect (2)

This answer left Jian Wuwei momentarily stunned. As he looked at Li Yuanba’s expression, he realized that Li Yuanba was speaking the truth about this disciple he was quite familiar with.

Before Jian Wuwei could ask any questions, Li Yuanba had already taken out his Lifebound Flying Sword and placed it in front of Jian Wuwei.

"This is my Lifebound Flying Sword, enhanced by a friend of mine!" Li Yuanba explained.

Jian Wuwei held the Xingyi Sword. He recognized this Xingyi Sword—it was Yun Xingyi’s flying sword. Yun Xingyi was one of the top sword cultivator talents of the Beishu Continent.

Unfortunately, Yun Xingyi had fallen early, and the Xingyi Sword became Li Yuanba’s Lifebound Flying Sword. Jian Wuwei had heard the whole story from Li Yuanba before.

This was among the rare instances where a Lifebound Flying Sword had been completely replaced, but there was no replicable aspect to it. This was simply because Yun Xingyi’s failed attempt at Body Seizing led to the Xingyi Sword becoming Li Yuanba’s Lifebound Flying Sword.

Despite this, the Xingyi Sword in his hand, except for faint traces of its original form, had undergone a tremendous transformation.

"Has it actually advanced to a Spirit Treasure?" Jian Wuwei’s hands slightly trembled as he gently caressed the Xingyi Sword, whispering in disbelief.

His inquiry was more of self-doubt, questioning the authenticity of the Xingyi Sword he held.

As a sword cultivator who had inherited the true teachings, he understood the importance of a Lifebound Spirit Treasure Flying Sword for a Sword Cultivator.

Such a Lifebound Flying Sword wouldn’t even need replacement during the Mahayana Realm. It would probably take someone in the Mahayana Realm to unleash its full power.

The most terrifying part was that it was a Spirit Treasure flying sword usable by a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator.

The majority of Spirit Treasure Flying Swords could only be wielded by Mahayana Realm cultivators.

Li Yuanba chuckled, having taken out the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword because it was already discovered by Sword Elder. There was no need to hide it from his master, Jian Wuwei.

"Can I give it a try?" Jian Wuwei asked somewhat embarrassedly.

Even as a master, examining a disciple’s Lifebound Flying Sword was somewhat excessive.

But his curiosity was overwhelming, eager to see a Spirit Treasure flying sword usable by a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator, something possibly unprecedented in the entire cultivation world.

"Go ahead, Master!" Li Yuanba said, relinquishing the permissions.

Jian Wuwei attempted to control the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword. With a flash of sword light, had Jian Wuwei not been quick to retract the sword, it would have pierced the hall’s wall.

"So fast! Which cultivator could withstand such speed!" He discovered the unique traits of the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword.

However, his level was too low, and since the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword wasn’t his Lifebound Flying Sword, he couldn’t detect the faint Speed Rule Imprint on its surface.

The four billion speed runes had also vanished after the Xingyi Sword had passed through the Heavenly Tribulation.

Jian Wuwei discovered the Xingyi Sword’s distinctive traits through trial, and he speculated on the truth behind Master Ge Guang’s demise.

Though his conjecture was mere imagination and differed far from the real battle.

Yet, it seemed so plausible. If Master Ge Guang, facing Li Yuanba, had lacked any defense due to Li Yuanba’s low cultivation level, then with the attack speed of the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword, it could surely strike in one blow.

This explained why Master Ge Guang hadn’t left any attack marks on the battlefield—because the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword’s speed was too fast, not allowing Master Ge Guang any chance to retaliate.

"The reason for the Xingyi Sword must not be leaked. It would cause more trouble than obtaining treasures from Langcai Great Power Cave Heaven!" Jian Wuwei shook his head.

He reluctantly returned the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword to Li Yuanba, knowing that any Sword Cultivator would be fond of such a Spirit Treasure.

"Let them be; I just need to be more cautious!" Li Yuanba said nonchalantly with a wave of his hand.

More than other cultivators, he understood that the recent battle had no element of luck but was a fair, face-to-face confrontation.

In a direct battle with Master Ge Guang, he had used the Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ to slash Master Ge Guang to death.

Since he could slay Master Ge Guang, he was confident of facing other Great Cultivators as long as they weren’t those at the Great Cultivator Peak, whom he had no hope against.

Even Master Ge Guang could only withstand just over three hundred of the two thousand energy-converted flying swords that contained Great Cultivator Sword Intent.

Against another Great Cultivator a bit stronger than Master Ge Guang, those two thousand energy-converted flying swords imbued with Great Cultivator Sword Intent could suffice in cutting them down.

"Can you still contact that friend of yours?" If Li Yuanba were an outsider, Jian Wuwei would never ask such a presumptuous question.

But because Li Yuanba was his disciple, Jian Wuwei felt no hesitation asking this particularly forbidden question.

"Do you want to get a Spirit Treasure Flying Sword too, Master?" Li Yuanba instantly caught Jian Wuwei’s meaning.

"Yes, whatever the cost, just let me know; I’ll meet it!" Jian Wuwei contemplated that if necessary, he would ask Sword Elder for some treasures, believing Sword Elder would meet any requests presented.

"I can’t guarantee; I’ll have to wait till I contact him next time to ask!" Li Yuanba responded hesitantly.

He considered that crafting a Spirit Treasure Flying Sword for his master Jian Wuwei wasn’t a big deal, but the fact that his true self, Li Shiming, was the creator must remain a secret.

Moreover, the crafted Spirit Treasure Flying Sword shouldn’t be too strong, just ensuring four billion accessory runes form a single Rule Imprint would suffice.

At that point, applying some disguise and having it endure the cleansing of a Heavenly Tribulation would likely prevent anyone from discovering the secret of the Spirit Treasure Flying Sword.

Just like the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword in his hand; had he not known the Artifact Refining process, even he wouldn’t have known that four billion speed runes and fifty million durability runes were inscribed on its blade.

"I’ll start preparing!" Jian Wuwei was already contemplating how to ask Sword Elder for some treasures.

Upon Jian Wuwei’s departure, Li Yuanba finally had time to examine his war trophies.

The first was the ’Infinite Great Isolation Decree’. Needless to say, it was the best treasure for ambushing enemies.

Once the ’Infinite Great Isolation Decree’ was set up, as soon as the enemy stepped within its range, they would simply be left waiting to be slain. Even if the enemy had life-saving Jade Talismans, there would be no escape within its confines.

Moreover, the Rule Power on the ’Infinite Great Isolation Decree’ made its value incalculable, suggesting a high probability of being crafted by a Great Power.

Then there was a fourth-grade top flying sword—the Lifebound Flying Sword of Master Ge Guang.

For other Sword Cultivators, a fourth-grade top Lifebound Flying Sword would be an extremely uncomfortable acquisition.

Using it as a replacement for one’s Lifebound Flying Sword, other cultivators’ Lifebound Flying Sword would only retain half its power when in their possession.

Yet, being a fourth-grade top flying sword, even among superpowers, only a very few Nascent Soul Cultivators were qualified to have it.

Thus, this fourth-grade top flying sword was like tasteless chicken, unwanted yet difficult to discard.

Yet, in Li Yuanba’s hands, it found its own use. He wished he could have countless such flying swords all at once.

Without even bothering to form a bond, he simply tossed the fourth-grade top flying sword into the Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

After some time, the Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ would energy-convert this fourth-grade top flying sword, transforming it into an energy-converted flying sword within the Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

Li Yuanba remained particularly curious about Master Ge Guang’s Sword Intent. Though Master Ge Guang hadn’t released a single sword strike during battle, his Sword Intent carried significant threat.

Master Ge Guang’s Sword Intent, named Terrifying Sword Intent, possessed immense offensive power against the spirit and soul.

This kind of Great Cultivator Sword Intent targeting spirit and soul, once within the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, gave Li Yuanba endless time for contemplation.

Moreover, this flying sword was destined to become the strongest energy-converted flying sword within the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’. Those two thousand flying swords were in a special situation, as the Sword Intent they contained couldn’t compare with their prime when wielded by Great Cultivator puppet swords.

The flying swords quickly cultivated by Great Cultivators contained limited Great Cultivator Sword Intent, incomparable to a Lifebound Flying Sword nurtured over a lifetime by Master Ge Guang.
