Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1412: Chapter 752: Summary (2)

I don’t know whether it’s because of the warning from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, or the Infinite Sect believes that attacking Li Yuanba in the short term would provoke the resentment of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, Infinite Sect did not make a move against him during his mission.

A silhouette kept flickering in the sky, each flicker spanning over three thousand meters.

The flickering of this silhouette wasn’t in a straight line, but intermittently adjusted its direction, making it difficult to predict the next flicker’s location.

When the silhouette appeared again, it revealed the figure of Li Yuanba.

This was his third month of taking on combat missions, and within these three months, he completed five tasks.

However, he actually fought only three battles.

Why did he clearly have five tasks but only fought three times? This couldn’t be separated from his terrifying reputation.

Because all the tasks he took targeted Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners, creating a large gap between his task targets and his combat ability.

He remembers during the first task when he found the target.

That Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner directly surrendered without the intention of resisting.

The Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner was even willing to live in the jail of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, rather than resist Li Yuanba, and even self-sealed their Nascent Soul to prevent misjudgment from Li Yuanba.

This maneuver left Li Yuanba speechless; he was here for real combat training. What to do when the target doesn’t cooperate?

Under such circumstances, he could only escort the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner back to complete the task.

This Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner might not die, but life afterward won’t be easy. Such Nascent Soul cultivators can forget about seeing sunlight for their entire lives; they are to do whatever they can for Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, for free, without any resource provision.

Many low-level resources of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, such as low-grade flying swords and low-grade Spirit Pills, are produced from within the jail.

The cultivators imprisoned are free labor for Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, spending their lives in jail, redeeming their mistakes.

With no resources or freedom, the vast majority of cultivators would rather die than endure such a fate.

But among Li Yuanba’s five combat tasks, he encountered two Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners willing to devote everything to the jail of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

This is the effect brought by Li Yuanba’s terrifying reputation; none of the core cultivators of any major force dare challenge him now.

After the promotion by the surviving Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners from Langcai Great Power Cave Heaven, and the feat of killing Master Ge Guang, those originally doubting him are now silenced.

Li Yuanba looked frustratingly at the task location this time; after so many traps, he had already contacted IBMz15 when taking the task, monitoring the task location through the drone satellite system.

The drone satellite system did not detect any abnormal conditions until he arrived.

There wasn’t the trap he imagined here. He also diligently checked with Divine Sense and ’Divine Eye Skill’, confirming there was no anomaly.

With some disappointment, he was doing the task not just for the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s contribution points. In fact, he had little interest left in the spiritual objects and knowledge that could be exchanged with contribution points in Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Having Jian Wuwei as a mentor from the direct line of the Jian Family, he could already access a lot of direct lineage knowledge from the Jian Family, which couldn’t be exchanged for with contribution points.

The only thing he most wanted to obtain was the related experience and insights about Great Power, but this wasn’t accessible to him at this moment, no matter how many contribution points he had.

He had to reach the Great Cultivator Realm at least to access some related experience and insights about Great Power.

Li Yuanba came for the task mainly for combat.

This time he chose a very powerful Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner, but even a very powerful Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner was significantly weaker than him in actual combat power.

He was more looking forward to being ambushed again; that way, he could refine himself further.

Probably only he in the Cultivation World would wish to be ambushed, but he had his assurance.

Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, Spirit Treasure ’Xingyi Sword’, Divine Foot Skill ’One Step Zero’, and the Great Ability Life-saving Jade Talisman were his biggest assurances.

In the previous battle with Master Ge Guang, he only used Spirit Treasure ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

Spirit Treasure ’Xingyi Sword’ wasn’t used, not to mention his ’Chaos Sword Intent’.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to test the power of ’Chaos Sword Intent’, but because he misjudged the battle then. Even Master Ge Guang, in the round of two thousand energy-converted flying swords containing Great Cultivator Sword Intent, only held out against over three hundred swords before dying.

He originally thought the attack of two thousand energy-converted flying swords containing Great Cultivator Sword Intent would probably cause some trouble for the Great Cultivator, making the Great Cultivator suffer some injury.

In the end, he didn’t get to use the ’Chaos Sword Intent’, as the battle was over, and ’Chaos Sword Intent’ ended up being used as a tool to clean up the battlefield.

Li Yuanba’s enthusiasm had decreased significantly, but combat tasks still had to be done.

He arrived outside the cave mansion, observing the Formation Spiritual Power routes of the cave mansion with ’Divine Eye Skill’, Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword flew out, slashing lightly at the formation location, making the formation vanish instantly.

Then his brows furrowed slightly, as he couldn’t sense the aura of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner in the cave mansion.

He took out the Identity Jade Disc, checking the intelligence from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Intelligence Department; this wasn’t considered remote, as he could even feel multiple observing sights from afar.

Among them, he believed there were spies from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Intelligence Department; theoretically, the Intelligence Department wouldn’t make mistakes.

From the latest intelligence of the Intelligence Department, this Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner didn’t leave the cave mansion at all.

But in fact, the Intelligence Department made a mistake, either the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner left here using some method of concealing themselves, or the spies’ eyes were faulty.

Li Yuanba trusted the former guess more; he entered the cave mansion.

Stopping upon reaching the Cultivation Room, he halted.

He stood firm, releasing his senses, soon sensing a trace of spatial energy fluctuation.

He immediately contacted IBMz15, with IBMz15 assisting in analyzing the spatial energy fluctuation information.

Having possessed the Divine Foot Skill for a long time alongside his body, Li Shiming, the data collection concerning space movement by IBMz15 was extraordinarily complete.

The spatial energy fluctuation here didn’t have much effect on other practitioners, but to IBMz15, it was the best clue.

Not much time passed before Li Yuanba received IBMz15’s analysis data.

He activated ’One Step Zero’, disappearing from the cave mansion, the direction of his space movement aligning exactly with the direction of the residual spatial energy fluctuation in the cave mansion.

Upon appearing three thousand meters away, his expression slightly changed.

Across three thousand meters, he hadn’t discovered any trace of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner emerging from space.

Believing in IBMz15’s directional judgment, which was derived from the detailed computation of numerous space movements performed by Li Shiming and Li Yuanba utilizing the Divine Foot Skill.

He once again deployed ’One Step Zero’, another three thousand meters; had the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner emerged anywhere in this span, he’d certainly detect it.

Clearly, he found himself disappointed once more.

Yet this instead piqued his interest; an unremarkable Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner possessing such spatial capabilities.

Rising the thought of capturing the other party, he acknowledged that no matter the disbelief, the opponent had some form of remote space movement strategy.

This time, Li Yuanba deployed ’One Step Zero’, nearly three thousand miles’ distance, arriving instantly.

But still failed to sense the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner’s emergence at any point in the three thousand miles, suggesting Li Yuanba’s furthest space movement couldn’t surpass the opponent’s spatial capabilities.
