Li Yuanba suppressed the quality of the Spirit Treasure âXingyi Swordâ, revealing only the aura of a fourth-grade top flying sword.
But this did not diminish the power of this sword; his âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ was even stronger than that of most Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivators of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilionâs Jian Family.
Not every Sword Cultivator has the chance to engage in cross-realm battles, but with each one, his âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ grew rapidly.
Especially with his true self Li Shiming and the battle experiences of Great Cultivator Luo Pei, all of these became nourishment for the growth of his âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ.
The instant the Spirit Treasureâs Xingyi Sword was activated, it slashed against the formation barrier, and under the âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ, the barrier was breached in less than a breath.
The sword light sliced through the building, carving a deep cut into the wooden structureâs surface.
The wooden building, being the core of the marketâs formation, was further adorned with luxurious decorations as it served as the residence of the Guardian Cultivator.
Under the cut of the Xingyi Sword, the luxurious decorations were severed.
The Guardian Cultivator had no time to lament the loss, for he felt the terror of that sword.
Thankfully, the formation barrier delayed the sword light for half a breath, giving him the opportunity not to stay still and face that sword head-on.
Upon sensing the âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ, he realized that the visitor was a core Sword Cultivator from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
Such a Sword Cultivator was not someone he could contend with; after all, he wasnât a core cultivator of the White Emperor Sect.
Even among the core cultivators of the White Emperor Sect, there were those who mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ and those who didnât.
Core cultivators who havenât mastered the âInvisible Primordial Magnetismâ divine skill must consider if they can handle facing one who has.
Thus, taking advantage of this half-breath of time, the Guardian Cultivator activated the formation beneath him, using its power to send himself out of the building.
With a loud "boom", due to the Guardian Cultivatorâs departure, the building, without his aid in resisting the attack, was cleaved through by Li Yuanbaâs sword, splitting the structure into two. The âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ was not limited to just cutting; it exploded in power after the cut.
The building burst apart from the incision, unable to withstand the destruction of the âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ without the protection of the formation, and shattered into debris scattered everywhere.
The Guardian Cultivator, who dodged aside, was a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner, looking with terror at the building he had just been in, witnessing the might of Li Yuanbaâs sword.
He had already taken out a life-saving talisman, ready to activate it for escape.
But Li Yuanba was always full of surprises. As soon as the Guardian Cultivator activated the formation, Li Yuanba, understanding the formation, determined where the Guardian Cultivator would be sent.
So at the same time, Li Yuanba used âLimitless Horizonsâ, appearing behind the Guardian Cultivator when he emerged.
The life-saving talisman in the Guardian Cultivatorâs hand hadnât been activated yet when he saw a sword tip emerge from his chest.
This Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner couldnât force Li Yuanba to use many techniques; even without recalling the Spirit Treasureâs Xingyi Sword, he activated the fourth-grade sword foundation, piercing the Guardian Cultivatorâs body with one strike.
This sword, under the enhancement of âVoid-Breaking Sword Intentâ, might have been blocked by a Nascent Soul Middle Stage core cultivator of the White Emperor Sect, but the Guardian Cultivator was merely a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator with minor connections to the White Emperor Sect, not skilled in combat.
Even Li Yuanba was a bit stunned, not expecting the White Emperor Sectâs Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator to be so weak, dealt with by a single sword from the fourth-grade sword foundation.
Itâs worth knowing that the quality of the fourth-grade sword foundation was not high, as it increased based on the strength of Li Yuanbaâs physical body; even when the Xingyi Sword was suppressed to a fourth-grade top quality, it surpassed the quality of the fourth-grade sword foundation by far.
Now, with the building that was the core of the marketâs formation destroyed, the marketâs formation vanished.
Cultivators, shocked by Li Yuanbaâs attack, fled towards the distance.
"Donât take any Spiritual Objects!" Li Yuanba extended his divine sense, shouting sternly.
The Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword shot forth, slaying two cultivators trying to take advantage of the chaos, deterring others with similar intentions.
Soon, the entire market became empty and deathly silent.
Li Yuanbaâs divine sense swept across every corner of the market, collecting all valuable Spiritual Objects he could find.
Out of these Spiritual Objects, aside from those he deemed important, the rest had to be surrendered.
That sword destroyed the formation core, greatly reducing the difficulty of clearing the battlefield. The marketâs warehouse, without the protection of the formation, was emptied with a sweep of his divine sense.
He had systematically learned how, dismantling valuable decorations with his divine sense, even including transferring the marketâs Nascent Soul Level Spirit Vein into the vein-locking plate.
Shortly after Li Yuanba left the market, other cultivators came to inspect and found nothing but ruins, with no valuable Spiritual Objects left behind.
Li Yuanba used âLimitless Horizonsâ again, heading towards another target.
On the first day the hundreds of Sword Cultivators from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion arrived on the Beiyan Continent, they showed the cultivators of Beiyan what true professionalism was.
In a single day, the losses of the White Emperor Sect were incalculable, and although these losses were insignificant to the scale of the White Emperor Sect and didnât harm its core foundation,
the impact was just too great, with hundreds of the White Emperor Sectâs bases attacked within a day.
