Instead, the team from Yuqing Sect was positioned in the middle, with continuous flashes of lightning, making it impossible for the hell creatures to even approach as they were annihilated.
Li Yuanba released a sword light, slaying a hell creature trying to approach the team. Itâs not that he didnât want to kill more hell creatures, but rather the number of hell creatures in front of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion team was limited.
He glanced towards Master Wang He, smiling faintly. Although Master Wang He didnât say anything, anyone could see that his actions were a suppression of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilionâs sword cultivator team.
But what is the point of such suppression?
The Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion wouldnât suffer any loss due to the suppression by Master Wang He. If the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion had sent their strongest sword cultivator like Yuqing Sect did, there would have been no place for Master Wang He.
Moreover, among the superpowers present, which one doesnât have a Great Cultivator at their peak?
If they didnât send them, it was simply not necessary. If Yuqing Sectâs two previous Thunder Cultivators hadnât fallen, would Yuqing Sect have sent Master Wang He?
Li Yuanba could see clearly, and he suspected that many Great Cultivators had noticed too.
"Yuan Ba, after this mission, you should be able to enter seclusion!" Great Cultivator Lou communicated telepathically.
Great Cultivator Lou found the battle too easy, hence he chatted with Li Yuanba out of boredom.
"I plan to enter partial seclusion after returning. Complete seclusion seems impossible since I still have some alchemy commissions to complete!" Li Yuanba thought for a moment and replied.
Due to the intense battles, his âChaos Sword Intentâ had already reached a profound level. According to his feeling, even if his realm advances to Nascent Soul Middle Stage Peak, there wonât be any issues due to insufficient sword intent comprehension.
Of course, advancing to Nascent Soul Middle Stage is not easy.
Li Yuanba, though possessing ample resources, still requires a long cultivation time.
"After this mission, I should be able to exchange my contribution points for several portions of alchemy resources. At that time, I will ask for your assistance!" Great Cultivator Lou made an early reservation.
"No problem!" Li Yuanba agreed without thinking.
This made Great Cultivator Lou very grateful. The timing for brewing spirit pills is unpredictable, and a Great Cultivatorâs spirit pill takes at least over a month, which significantly impacts a cultivatorâs progress.
Li Yuanba had had enough tempering and was ready to cultivate with full focus.
Refining those Nascent Soul Middle Stage fourth-grade spirit pills would take at most ten hours, so the impact on cultivation isnât substantial, but continuous alchemy for over a month consumes over a month of cultivation time.
The fact that Li Yuanba didnât even consider it shows how much he values Great Cultivator Lou.
Great Cultivator Lou understood the growth characteristics of sword cultivators; advancing their realms requires simultaneous enhancements of cultivation and sword intent.
Cultivation advancement involves secluded cultivation, while sword intent requires tempering through battles.
Now that Li Yuanbaâs sword intent tempering is sufficient, whatâs needed is secluded cultivation.
"Lou Wu can aim for Nascent Soul Middle Stage after this mission!" Li Yuanba turned to his disciple Lou Wu and said with a smile.
"This mission provided him with great training!" Speaking of his son, Great Cultivator Lou smiled.
Lou Wu followed the sword cultivator team, although he was under the special care of Great Cultivator Lou and Li Yuanba, he still encountered several dangers.
Fortunately, with the support of âInnate Woodâ divine skill and âSpace Acceptance Arrayâ for survival, Lou Wu didnât get into trouble.
A Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner is still quite vulnerable in Hell Cave Heaven, but the benefits are immense. His sword intent has enhanced significantly, and already meets the requirements for advancing to Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
"Careful, thereâs movement ahead!" Master Teng warned, interrupting Li Yuanba and Great Cultivator Louâs conversation.
The number of hell creatures suddenly surged, and even the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion team positioned on the left edge had to face a considerable amount of hell creatures.
Li Yuanba had no mood to chat; he swung his hand, releasing several sword lights.
The âChaos Sword Intentâ no longer flaunted its sharpness like before; the consumption decreased significantly, but the power went undiminished, which is the benefit of expertly mastering the âChaos Sword Intentâ.
Perhaps no sword cultivator could match his speed of growth in sword intent; on one hand, while fighting, he tempered the âChaos Sword Intentâ.
On the other side, his main body Li Shiming enhanced the âChaos Sword Intentâ continuously by studying the Sword Intent Stele through dual cultivation by sharing experience with the clone Li Yuanba.
Comparing the âChaos Sword Intentâ from months ago with the current âChaos Sword Intentâ, the difference is evident.
Currently, his âChaos Sword Intentâ is inching closer to the sword intent of the Sword Intent Stele. Although there is still a significant gap, he is getting nearer constantly.
He is confident that with the current âChaos Sword Intentâ, he can defeat a regular Great Cultivator using the Fourth Grade Top Quality Xingyi Sword.
Based on his imagination, an ordinary Great Cultivator would be comparable to Master Ge Guang and Master Qiao in terms of standard.
Li Yuanbaâs sword lights flickered continuously, cleaning up the hell creatures in front of the team like cutting grass.
As one of the sword lights struck a hell creature, its aura suddenly surged; it was a fourth-grade late stage hell being hiding its aura.
But clearly, this fourth-grade late stage hell being did not anticipate how formidable the âChaos Sword Intentâ it faced would be. Despite its aura boost, the sword light containing âChaos Sword Intentâ still sliced through its body.
The fourth-grade late stage hell being let out an enraged roar, filled with dissatisfaction.
Then its body collapsed, still struggling despite not being completely fallen, it couldnât continue fighting.
Li Yuanba was startled; he hadnât expected to encounter a fourth-grade late stage hell being, yet the sword lightâs power met his expectations.
This fourth-grade late stage hell being was unlucky, thinking its opponent was mainly Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivators, attempted to deceive them and endure a sword light attack to approach for an attack.
But it never expected the incoming sword light to be so terrifyingly powerful.
The âChaos Sword Intentâ breached the defenses of the fourth-grade late stage hell being, the âChaos Sword Intentâ invaded its body, initiating a comprehensive internal destruction.
From soul to flesh, the indiscriminate attacks caused the fourth-grade late stage hell being to lose control over its body.
A flying sword penetrated the head of the fourth-grade late stage hell being, turning its body to ashes, leaving behind a piece of âHell Disgust Crystal Essenceâ.
"Yuan Ba, it seems your strength has increased significantly, I couldnât achieve this ease!" Great Cultivator Lou remarked with admiration after slaying the fourth-grade late stage hell being, speaking to Li Yuanba.
As a sword cultivator Great Master, he rarely engages in these ordinary battles, intervening only at critical moments.
His full effort results in stronger sword light than Li Yuanbaâs, but Li Yuanbaâs sword lights are released continuously, suggesting minimal wear on him.
Great Cultivator Lou lacks such means; his sword lights are potent due to enhanced sword intent and spiritual power output, also infused with a trace of rule power.
If he were to release sword lights like Li Yuanba, achieving the same effect of casually devastating fourth-grade late stage hell beings wouldnât be possible. If every sword light had such power, his internal energy wouldnât sustain.
"This fourth-grade late stage hell monster didnât provide any defense!" Li Yuanba explained with a smile.
Despite his explanation, the recent achievement filled all sword cultivators with excitement â effortlessly wrecking forth-grade late stage hell beings with a casual sword light is beyond the capacity of Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivators.
