Chapter 1886: Chapter 989: Dire News (Part 2)
Li Yuanba also noticed this situation. He adjusted his emotions while the four half-step Great Powers manipulated the energy inside the Cave Heaven.
Jian Wuwei felt no danger, and after his nerves calmed, sweat dripped down.
This is terrifying. He could clearly sense that the golden light, seemingly omnipresent in the Cave Heaven, each had the power to easily annihilate him.
Looking at the amount of golden light in the Cave Heaven, itâs likely that even if ten thousand Great Cultivators came, they wouldnât withstand a single attack from the golden light within the Cave Heaven.
"A while ago, we went to war with Da Leiyin Temple. The Infinite Sect, Beidou Sect, Guiyuan Sect, and Feiyu Sect allied with Da Leiyin Temple to oppose us. Lou Wu was ambushed and fell to multiple Venerables from the Thousand Hands Hall of Da Leiyin Temple!" Jian Wuwei continued after seeing Li Yuanba calm down.
"Are these five superpowers not subdued yet?" Li Yuanba frowned slightly.
Before he went into seclusion, he had completely suppressed the five superpowers. But not long after he began his seclusion, they started causing trouble again.
And they killed Lou Wu, his only disciple.
"After you went into seclusion, the combat power of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion was at a disadvantage against the five superpowers. Were it not for you slaying many Great Cultivators from these powers back then, we couldnât have opposed them for so long!" Jian Wuwei explained.
Back then, Li Yuanba fought a battle against the Great Cultivators from the five superpowers, slaying thirty-one of them, including four Peak Great Cultivators.
That was his famous battle, establishing his status among Great Cultivators.
"Master, I need detailed information on the Thousand Hands Hall of Da Leiyin Temple, the more detailed the better!" Li Yuanba said solemnly after some thought.
"You donât need to worry about outside matters. Whatâs most important for you now is your cultivation!" Jian Wuwei didnât want these matters to affect Li Yuanbaâs cultivation, he advised.
Concerning Lou Wuâs grievance, itâs more important for Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to have another Great Power.
Besides, Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion will seek this revenge, the Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators are considering retaliation.
Li Yuanba, being in the Cave Heaven, what good is having the information?
"Master, just provide me with resources, and I will naturally find a way to retaliate against Da Leiyin Temple!" Li Yuanba insisted.
Jian Wuwei glanced at the four half-step Great Powers, thinking Li Yuanba planned to mobilize them. He pondered and found it feasible.
"Alright, give it a few days, and Iâll send it over, but you must ensure it doesnât affect your cultivation!" Jian Wuwei nodded helplessly.
Jian Wuwei left the Cave Heaven. Li Yuanba closed his eyes and reminisced about the time spent with Lou Wu alone.
"Lou Wu, I will make Da Leiyin Temple pay!" He murmured to himself.
Though he had been cultivating for hundreds of years, there werenât many cultivators he was truly close to. Lou Wu was one of the closest.
Three days later, a detailed document reached Li Yuanbaâs hands.
Li Yuanba transmitted the documentâs content to IBMz15, which began formulating an action plan based on this information.
Within the Cave Heaven, Li Yuanba continuously injected a hundred spells into his Lifebound Flying Sword âXingyi Swordâ. Each spell would cause a sword light to split from âXingyi Swordâ.
After injecting a hundred spells, a hundred sword lights appeared beside âXingyi Swordâ.
He extended his hand and pressed lightly on the hundred sword lights, merging them into a single substantial flying sword, identical in appearance to âXingyi Swordâ.
He sensed and detected a part-consciousness from the Artifact Spirit within this merged sword light.
Given his link with the Artifact Spirit, no matter how far this merged sword light flew, as long as the Artifact Spiritâs part-consciousness existed, he could sense the situation within the range of the merged sword light.
With the merged sword light suspended in the air, he took a deep breath and waved at the Gold Element Energy in the Cave Heaven, causing some to infuse into the merged sword light.
Fortunately, within his Cave Heaven, including himself, there were five half-step Great Powers, resulting in energy quantities far exceeding other half-step Great Powers.
Otherwise, the Gold Element Energy summoned this once would have exhausted him greatly.
He infused ten yearsâ worth of Gold Element Energy produced by the Cave Heaven into the merged sword light, equivalent to fifty yearsâ energy for other half-step Great Powers.
This was true Cave Heaven Energy, also the strongest means of a half-step Great Power.
Had it not been to avenge Lou Wu, he wouldnât have drawn ten yearsâ worth of Gold Element Energy in one go.
With ten yearsâ worth of Gold Element Energy infused, the merged sword lightâs aura didnât rise but instead retracted, making it resemble an ordinary flying sword.
He then mobilized the rules within the Cave Heaven, enchanting the merged sword light with âGold Rulesâ, âSword Intent Ruleâ, and âSpace Rulesâ, exhausting all his capabilities.
"Go!" Li Yuanba said softly to the merged sword light.
The merged sword light suddenly shot out, flying out of the Cave Heaven from its anchor point.
Carrying Li Yuanbaâs aura, the merged sword light wasnât restrained by the Sect Formation of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, flying out freely through the mountain gate.
"Interesting, just years after advancing to half-step Great Power, heâs able to unleash such a powerful attack, enough to teach those superpowers a lesson!" Sword Elder smiled slightly, sensing the merged sword light.
From his perspective, the conflict between Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and the five superpowers seemed more like childrenâs antics.
These antics led to dangerous battles for the Sectâs Sword Cultivators, enhancing their strength.
Sword Cultivators never feared battles; only battles could strengthen them.
However, the alliance of five superpowers still impacted Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. If Li Yuanba could discipline them, making them retract slightly, it would be beneficial.
Due to the speed of the merged sword light, apart from Sword Elder, only a few Sword Cultivators with Sect Formation control privileges noticed it.
"Is this Yuanbaâs method?" Jian Wuwei, a Sword Cultivator with this privilege, identified the origin of the merged sword light as Li Yuanbaâs doing.
Though his realm was low, he didnât understand that Li Yuanba merely launched a single flying sword. Could this flying sword alone avenge Lou Wu?
He immediately reinforced intelligence gathering on Da Leiyin Temple, especially focusing on the Thousand Hands Hall.
From the intelligence provided to Li Yuanba, it was clear that his revenge target was the Venerables of the Thousand Hand Hall.
The merged sword light flew through the air, and being an offshoot of âXingyi Swordâ, it carried some of its capabilities, such as similar speed.
With its retracted aura, during high-speed flight, hardly any cultivators noticed the merged sword lightâs presence, let alone its target destination.
From Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to Da Leiyin Temple, it took the merged sword light several hours. Upon reaching a thousand-li radius from Da Leiyin Temple, the Artifact Spiritâs part-consciousness manipulated the âSpace Ruleâ within the merged sword light.
The merged sword light, nearing the thousand-li radius from Da Leiyin Templeâs mountain gate, performed a short-range space movement just as it was about to touch the Cave Heaven Space barrier, leaping over it.
Itâs worth mentioning that through the insights of Li Shiming, who studied and understood the space abilities of the Duke of Thunder and the Holy Spirit, and Li Yuanbaâs comprehension of the Cave Heavenâs space rules, he advanced to the present level of space rules.
Although this space rule still couldnât compare with those of the Duke of Thunder or the Holy Spirit, under the space rule, it was possible to maneuver freely inside and outside formations.
Even with the Sect Formation and Li Yuanbaâs sensory scanning, with IBMz15âs assistance, after the formationâs regulations were understood, the merged sword lightâs space rule easily leaped over the formationâs defense.
