Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1705: Chapter 899: Ice Needle

The Xingyi Sword shattered the peak Great Cultivator’s defensive treasure before he could activate his life-saving jade talisman, then struck his body.

Both his flesh and Nascent Soul were simultaneously attacked by the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ within the Xingyi Sword. His life-saving jade talisman had just emerged from the soul crystal ring before losing control and helplessly falling downward.

Li Yuanba scanned with his Divine Sense, caught the jade talisman, and put it away.

His gaze fell on Great Cultivator Lin, who only had the strength of an Early Stage of Great Cultivator after the Nascent Soul rebuilding. The Xingyi Sword returned by his side, ready to be reinfused with spiritual power and supplemented with Sword Intent, preparing to resolve Great Cultivator Lin in the next sword strike.

Great Cultivator Lin did not flee, his eyes carried a kind of inexplicable madness.

He knew today would be the day of complete death. When taken back to the sect by Guiyuan Sect’s powerful figure, aside from his life-bound treasure, he had no other Spiritual Objects, not even the soul crystal ring, which was given to Li Yuanba by the powerful figure.

When asked about his requests, he didn’t ask for another life-saving jade talisman but instead requested, based on his last sentiment with the powerful figure, an attack treasure.

With this attack treasure, he would no longer receive any help from the powerful figure.

This all but exhausted his family and the powerful figure’s ties, yet he believed it was worthwhile.

He knew clearly that even if his flesh hadn’t been destroyed, with his strength, he couldn’t defeat Li Yuanba.

Let alone now, being in the Nascent Soul rebuilding state, reaching the Peak Great Cultivator Realm was the utmost he could achieve.

Yet with an attack treasure, it granted him a chance to kill Li Yuanba.

The attack treasure provided by the powerful figure wasn’t given to Great Cultivator Lin, but only loaned for a hundred years, then reclaimed afterward.

Now, this attack treasure was in Great Cultivator Lin’s hand, ready to be activated at any moment.

He also knew that with the speed of Li Yuanba’s flying sword, even if he hit Li Yuanba with the attack treasure, Li Yuanba’s flying sword would simultaneously strike him.

"Let us die together!" Great Cultivator Lin’s expression was frenzied as he screamed as if dragging Li Yuanba into Hell.

Li Yuanba sensed the special lock within Great Cultivator Lin’s hand, a hair-raising feeling surged from his heart.

Without any hesitation, he activated the Xingyi Sword, having it slash towards Great Cultivator Lin at the fastest speed.

Great Cultivator Lin’s attacking treasure also activated, shooting towards Li Yuanba.

The Xingyi Sword cut into Great Cultivator Lin, even as it struck his body, and his flesh and Nascent Soul were attacked by the ’Chaos Sword Intent’, he still desperately watched Li Yuanba, watching them together descend into Hell.

Regrettably, he was met with an extremely disappointing scene, dying with his eyes wide open, looking unsatisfied even in death.

When Li Yuanba realized Great Cultivator Lin wielded a highly threatening means, how could he take it head-on with his body? He summoned the Late-stage Golden Corpse.

The fully armored Late-stage Golden Corpse was hit by a streak of blue light.

The blue light quickly engulfed the Late-stage Golden Corpse, causing a layer of blue ice to appear on its body.

This ice, despite its potent freezing effect threatening even Peak Great Cultivators, was rendered ineffective as the Late-stage Golden Corpse’s defensive power was so astounding, exceeding even that of Peak Great Cultivators.

Within a breath after being enveloped in ice, the Late-stage Golden Corpse shattered it from inside.

Li Yuanba’s eyes landed on an ice needle, his gaze narrowed; the ice needle’s quality was indeterminable.

This scenario only manifests concerning certain treasures, like the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’, a treasure of the powerful figure.

He used Divine Sense to retrieve the ice needle, immediately discovering an immensely strong spirit mark inside, reminding him that the owner of this ice needle must be Guiyuan Sect’s powerful figure.

He quickly procured an isolating jade box, putting the ice needle inside it.

Then he began cleaning the battlefield, sending away the other cultivators on the long-distance flying boat.

There were too many cultivators observing here, thus he refrained from slaughtering all aboard the long-distance flying boat.

He ascended to the top layer of the long-distance flying boat, controlling it towards the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

The cultivation world’s best place to handle Spiritual Objects seized in robbery was the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

He returned the long-distance flying boat to the pavilion, where specialists would handle it.

Though a trap, to enhance its authenticity, the cargo aboard the long-distance flying boat wasn’t fabricated with fake goods, it was packed full.

No cultivator dared to obstruct the departure of the long-distance flying boat, they weren’t foolish enough, nor did they miss seeing two Peak Great Cultivators escaping alone, while the others were slain.

One of the cultivators already recognized Li Yuanba; he didn’t hide his face, which was highly distinctive.

Li Yuanba controlled the long-distance flying boat, and as he neared the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, he sent a message to Jian Wuwei.

Upon returning to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, Jian Wuwei dispatched several cultivators to take over the long-distance flying boat.

"Yuan Ba, why such a commotion?" Jian Wuwei found it odd that Li Yuanba returned with a long-distance flying boat, he asked aloud.

Previously, Li Yuanba’s actions were always carried out in secret, leaving no traces; the cultivation world believed the Yuqing Sect’s attack was Li Shiming’s doing.

But today, Li Yuanba returning the long-distance flying boat to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion couldn’t be concealed, and it would soon be known to many powers.

"This time it was a trap, when I arrived, four Peak Great Cultivators were waiting for me!" Li Yuanba replied, somewhat annoyed.
