Chapter 1106: Chapter 599: Ten Thousand Swords (Part 2)
Five āFlowing Light Star Meteorā flying swords are also Artifact Tribulation Flying Swords, but unfortunately their grade is only third.
A fourth-grade top-level Artifact Tribulation Flying Sword replaced one āFlowing Light Star Meteorā, the āFlowing Light Star Meteorā was sent down into the mountain below, inserted into the mountain peak, becoming one of the ten thousand flying swords.
The subsequent four āFlowing Light Star Meteorā flying swords were also replaced by fourth-grade top-level Artifact Tribulation Flying Swords. When the last fourth-grade top-level Artifact Tribulation Flying Sword was placed at the core of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, he felt a change in āTen Thousand Sword Peakā.
Li Yuanbaās expression changed, without any hesitation, he quickly performed āA Short Step to the Horizonā to move out of the cave.
He stopped at a place on the periphery of the Sword Peak, where sword cultivators usually spar, but today there were not many sword cultivators here, only two pairs were fighting.
He distanced himself from the two pairs of sword cultivators fighting, and shortly after he stopped, thunder clouds appeared above his head.
Itās unknown whether it is the use of five fourth-grade top-level Artifact Tribulation Flying Swords as the core of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā or the internal fourth-grade flying swords of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā reached a critical point, causing āTen Thousand Sword Peakā to exceed the limitations of the Heaven and Earth Rules.
As a result, āTen Thousand Sword Peakā needs to face the test of Heavenly Tribulation, surviving means it becomes an Artifact Tribulation Treasure, not surviving means it turns to fragments.
The change was noticed by the nearby sword cultivators, who did not approach but observed from afar.
Though the sword cultivators of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion are belligerent, they would not actively interrupt another sword cultivatorās Heavenly Tribulation.
Daring to interfere with Heavenly Tribulation is an act of forming mortal feuds.
Unless it is a life-and-death enemy, one would not do such interference.
āTen Thousand Sword Peakā still didnāt reveal what kind of grade-four quality it was, but when Li Yuanbaās Divine Sense entered āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, he could sense five astounding āVoid-Shattering Sword Intentsā flowing within it.
With each flow of the Great Cultivator-level āVoid-Shattering Sword Intentā within āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, it enhances the āVoid-Shattering Sword Intentā slightly.
Given enough time, all the sword intents in āTen Thousand Sword Peakā will, under the influence of the Great Cultivator Sword Intent, elevate their grade infinitely close to the Great Cultivator Sword Intent degree.
āWhat tribulation is Yuan Ba preparing to undergo?ā At this moment the members of the Yun Xiao Team all arrived, Yun Xiao looked at the gathering thunder clouds in the sky, curiously asking.
He was not asking Li Yuanba, as Li Yuanba was preparing to face the Heavenly Tribulation, and would not be disturbed.
āThis is an Artifact Tribulation, just donāt know which artifact of Yuan Ba is going through the tribulation?ā Guo Ping recognized the Artifact Tribulation, shaking his head in puzzlement.
Having cooperated many times with Li Yuanba, they were quite familiar with him.
They knew well Li Yuanbaās lifebound flying sword and āTen Thousand Sword Peakā treasure.
But they were quite clear, the foundation of the āTen Thousand Sword Peakā treasure was too shallow, wanting the āTen Thousand Sword Peakā to grow to the degree of an Artifact Tribulation is not achievable in a short time.
They likely couldnāt conceive that Sword Elder, a being of such stature, helped Li Yuanba to nurture five fourth-grade flying swords with sword intent, and it was Sword Elderās most adept āVoid-Shattering Sword Intentā.
It can be said it was precisely Sword Elderās assistance that allowed āTen Thousand Sword Peakā to be overcompensated.
The silhouette of Sword Elder appeared near Li Yuanba, his standing position was quite deliberate, one more step would enter the range of the Heavenly Tribulation, precisely outside its scope.
Recognizing Sword Elder, sword cultivators respectfully saluted, only to be stopped with a wave by Sword Elder.
All sword cultivators could perceive that Sword Elder appeared for Li Yuanba.
Their gaze towards Li Yuanba changed completely; Li Yuanba was previously merely a regular Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, at most an Alchemy Master.
In the eyes of Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators, although Alchemy Masters are very esteemed, lacking powerful combat ability, the Alchemy Master is still support.
But gaining Sword Elderās attention, Li Yuanbaās status in Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion underwent significant elevation.
āWhy is the Heavenly Thunder so powerful?ā Li Yuanba had been focusing on the thunder clouds.
From the main body Li Shiming, he had shared a wealth of knowledge about thunder clouds.
This thunder cloud knowledge was personally experienced and summarized by Li Shiming, in this research area, he could be said to be pioneering.
Though awed by the might of the thunder clouds, Li Yuanba bore no excessive fear, as he possessed āSupreme Yang Sword Intentā, providing strong resistance against Heavenly Thunder.
āRelease the swords!ā He lightly called out to āTen Thousand Sword Peakā.
Forms of swords flew out from within āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, each shape was a real flying sword, over ten thousand flying swords filled the sky.
Achieving the release of ten thousand swords simultaneously is not uncommon for sword cultivators, but why Sword Elder found some fascination in āTen Thousand Sword Peakā.
Normally, the sword cultivators releasing ten thousand swords simultaneously are transforming their lifebound flying swords into sword lights, which while constantly dispersing, also continually diminish in power.
Therefore, while sword cultivators releasing ten thousand sword lights indeed appears magnificent, the actual power is quite limited.
When fighting a cultivator of the same tier, let alone dispersing into ten thousand sword lights, even dispersing into ten sword lights would affect their lifebound flying swordās power.
Normally, releasing ten thousand sword lights is a means only used against enemies much lower in tier, and in massive quantities.
However, āTen Thousand Sword Peakā is different, each flying sword in āTen Thousand Sword Peakā truly exists.
Though Li Yuanba couldnāt simultaneously control ten thousand flying swords, if the main body Li Shiming were present, ten thousand flying swords could be controlled as flexibly as its own arm.
However, given his spirit strength, using the Divine Splitting Method to simultaneously control one hundred flying swords poses no issue.
As for other flying swords, they would follow the movement of one from the hundred flying swords.
Among the hundred flying swords, all contain the Nascent Soul Level sword intent of fourth-grade flying swords, despite some disparity in quality, the power of energy-formed fourth-grade flying swords mainly comes from the internal sword intent.
A hundred flying swords formed a Thunder Protection Formation in the sky, each node of the Thunder Protection Formation was a fourth-grade flying sword, and around each node, a hundred other flying swords danced.
āBoom,ā the first Heavenly Thunder descended.
This Heavenly Thunder scattered most flying swords except the hundred fourth-grade flying swords; these swords, having been energy-formed, turned back into energy and returned to āTen Thousand Sword Peakā when scattered.
Given time, āTen Thousand Sword Peakā would once again coalesce all damaged flying swords, restoring their full power.
This is the strength of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, as long as the mountain body remains undamaged, internally the ten thousand energy-formed flying swords can infinitely resurrect and recover.
The branches of the Thunder Protection Formation were broken, but the Thunder Protection Formation made of nodes from the hundred fourth-grade flying swords was not destroyed.
The Heavenly Thunder was consumed in the collision with a hundred fourth-grade flying swords, finally dissipating the last trace of lightning.
Li Yuanba exhaled heavily, directing his Spiritual Power Pattern into āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, to speed up the restoration of the recently lost flying swords.
He held the core of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā in his arms, the quality of the mountain body was too low, primarily constructed from materials less than third-grade.
It was due to the poor quality of āTen Thousand Sword Peakā mountain body that he couldnāt use āTen Thousand Sword Peakā to transform into its original state to suppress enemies.
āTen Thousand Sword Peakā in his hands seemed more like a container, holding energy-formed flying swords and sword intents.
There was a constant stream of flying swords from āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, joining the Thunder Protection Formation.
These were flying swords that had recovered first, while their quality was insufficient, they could still assist in dealing with the Heavenly Thunder.
āBoom,ā the second Heavenly Thunder descended.
This time, even among the hundred fourth-grade flying swords only ten remained, the Thunder Protection Formation was mostly shattered under the ravaging Heavenly Thunder, yet still managed to resist most of its force, with the remaining power of the Heavenly Thunder falling towards the top of Li Yuanba.
Since he was holding āTen Thousand Sword Peakā, he was essentially sharing āTen Thousand Sword Peakās Heavenly Tribulation.
The residue of the Heavenly Thunder struck toward Li Yuanba, the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword slashed at the residual force of the Heavenly Thunder, āSupreme Yang Sword Intentā collided with the remnants of the Heavenly Thunder, and a dazzling white light appeared in the sky.
