Three days later, Li Yuanba and Tang Xue Ning left the âSword Intent Chongxiao Pavilionâ together. While flying with sword control, Tang Xue Ning shared a task with Li Yuanba.
Xue Huan, a peak Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioner from the White Emperor Sect, is known as a half-step Great Cultivator and has mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ divine skill.
In the conflict between the White Emperor Sect and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, Xue Huan has caused considerable trouble for many sword cultivators.
Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion has a mission to assassinate Xue Huan, and the reward for the task is extremely high.
Currently, both Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and the White Emperor Sect are restraining the level of their battles and not escalating to the level of Great Cultivator duel. Thus, Xue Huan, the half-step Great Cultivator, is the highest combat power the White Emperor Sect can deploy.
Keeping the battle at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage level is beneficial for both sides. If the battle exceeds this level, it means the White Emperor Sect and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion are engaged in a fight to the death.
The consequences of a fight to the death between two super forces are too great, affecting the foundations of both sides that have been established over tens of thousands of years.
A battle at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage can settle this vendetta. After all, the leaders of both sides do not wish for actual mortal combat. Both Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and White Emperor Sect are being watched by many powers.
If the two super forces become slightly weakened, other super powers will take advantage.
But neither side will let it go easily. Reputation is crucial for super powers, and the White Emperor Sect and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion are natural adversaries, so a major conflict is inevitable.
Li Yuanba missed the beginning of this conflict due to three years of seclusion.
Although his combat strength is formidable, none of the leaders at Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion intended for him to come out and participate in the battle.
Despite once killing a core Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioner from the White Emperor Sect who mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ, Li Yuanba was just entering the Nascent Soul Middle Stage and had not yet stabilized his realm.
Upon coming out after three years, he volunteered to perform a task with Tang Xue Ning, intending to make a contribution.
"The White Emperor Sect truly has no shortage of cultivators who mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ!" Li Yuanba couldnât help but marvel.
He has encountered several cultivators with the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ, and he is curious about how one sect can have so many cultivators mastering divine skills.
"Thereâs nothing special about it. The White Emperor Sect is a super sect specialized in earth elements. They have recruited a large portion of cultivators with excellent earth talent from the cultivation world. Itâs said that the White Emperor Sect has over five âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ inheritances, and every few years, five system-trained earth element cultivators undergo the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ test. Over the years, quite a few cultivators mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ!" Tang Xue Ning understood the situation and explained to him.
Li Yuanba thought to himself that the White Emperor Sect may have only four âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ inheritances left, as one is in his possession.
But he couldnât reveal this; the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ inheritance would only bring him trouble in Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion is a sword cultivator sect, with sword cultivators naturally possessing gold talent. He obtained the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ through sharing abilities with his real body, Li Shiming.
"The Purple Flame Sect lies ahead; two years ago, for unknown reasons, the Purple Flame Sect was attacked by the White Emperor Sect. After the attack, it became a branch of the White Emperor Sect on the Central State Continent, and Xue Huan is responsible for guarding it!" Tang Xue Ning stopped flying with sword control and pointed ahead.
Due to the distance from the Purple Flame Sectâs mountain gate, it appeared as a tiny spot.
However, with the aid of his âDivine Eye Skillâ, Li Yuanba could see the situation at the Purple Flame Sectâs mountain gate clearly.
He was puzzled as to why such a significant sectâs mountain gate was guarded by only a Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioner, even if Xue Huan is known as a half-step Great Cultivator, he is not enough to guard a major sectâs mountain gate.
Upon seeing the condition of Purple Flame Sect, he understood the reason.
Most of the Purple Flame Sectâs mountain gate had become ruins, indicating how fierce the battle had been two years ago.
This devastation was caused by battles among Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. The destroyed part of the mountain gate no longer holds any value; not even spirit plants, not even weeds can grow.
Moreover, this situation could last for thousands of years, and even after centuries, itâs uncertain how much it can recover.
This is just the surface situation; the internal destruction of the Purple Flame Sectâs mountain gate is uncertain. The deployment of only one Nascent Soul Middle Stage practitioner by the White Emperor Sect indicates its minimal value.
"Senior Sister, what is your plan? Should we charge directly or lure them out for battle?" Li Yuanba asked Tang Xue Ning.
"We cannot allow Xue Huan to remain inside the Purple Flame Sect mountain gate. Even though most of Purple Flame Sectâs grand formation is destroyed, Xue Huan relying on its residual might would be much harder to deal with!" Tang Xue Ning had already formed a plan.
"Iâll lure him out, Senior Sister, just be ready!" Li Yuanba volunteered.
"Thank you for your effort!" Tang Xue Ning said with a smile, without competing for the task.
She wasnât worried about Li Yuanba going to lure the enemy, as Li Yuanba possesses the âDivine Foot Skillâ, a speed that few Nascent Soul cultivators can match.
Li Yuanba nodded and transformed into a sword light, flying towards Purple Flame Sect.
