Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1277: Chapter 685: Luring Out

Xue Huan pushed his speed to the limit. The ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ Divine Skill combined with his practiced flying secret technique allowed him to overcome the typical speed weakness of earth element cultivators.

In front, Li Yuanba repeatedly used the ’Heightened Perception’, but every time he utilized it, there was a certain interval, making Xue Huan feel that their speeds were not much different.

Li Yuanba’s strength was much weaker than his. As long as he caught up with Li Yuanba, he could kill him and avenge the slain comrades.

Li Yuanba’s actions were definitely a slap in Xue Huan’s face and also an affront to that Great Cultivator.

”You are Li Yuanba, the newly rising genius Sword Cultivator of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. Don’t run, come fight me and see if your title of genius is just empty talk!” Xue Huan recognized Li Yuanba and called out through his secret technique.

Li Yuanba was no longer an unknown. He had reached Nascent Soul Middle Stage within a hundred years and soon after that, repeatedly killed mid-stage practitioners from the White Emperor Sect, including a core cultivator who had mastered the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ Divine Skill.

Li Yuanba’s rise to fame was equivalent to stepping on the White Emperor Sect to gain notoriety.

When conflict arose between the White Emperor Sect and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, they naturally paid attention to Li Yuanba, a well-known Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator.

Xue Huan was very excited. Killing Li Yuanba would deal a great blow to Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

It could also mitigate the impact on the White Emperor Sect caused by Li Yuanba killing their core cultivators.

Xue Huan relentlessly accelerated. He discovered that Li Yuanba was leading him away from the Purple Flame Sect’s mountain gate, but didn’t mind.

Unless the Great Cultivator showed up, he had nothing to fear from any Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner, especially against Sword Cultivators; he was their nemesis.

In the midst of pursuit and evasion, after thirty minutes, they were a distance away from the Purple Flame Sect’s mountain gate.

Li Yuanba felt this distance was safe enough; even if the Great Cultivator from the Purple Flame Sect emerged, he would have ample time to detect and flee promptly.

”Stopped running?” Xue Huan saw Li Yuanba slowing down and felt a thrill in his heart. It seemed his goading was successful.

Pride is nearly a universal trait among genius cultivators. The more genius they are, the more easily they are provoked into making wrong judgments.

Xue Huan had no intention of underestimating Li Yuanba. He completely unleashed the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ Divine Skill, forming a two hundred meter radius ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ field space around his body.

Li Yuanba smiled lightly. Although the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ Divine Skill was shapeless and intangible, difficult to detect, he too had practiced the skill and could naturally sense the field.

He did not immediately use the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword. He only had one chance to strike a lethal blow; otherwise, Xue Huan would call in reinforcements from the Great Cultivator at Purple Flame Sect’s mountain gate.

Activating ’Heightened Perception’, his figure flickered around Xue Huan, while within the range of his divine sense, countless Sanmei Divine Sand appeared, forming a storm.

”Truly a genius! You’ve mastered the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ skill, but that skill is a gold attribute divine power, perfectly restrained by my ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ skill. You should save your energy!” Xue Huan was first shocked, then laughed.

In Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ is a gold element divine power, and all gold elements are restrained by the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ skill.

He was surprised Li Yuanba mastered two divine skills, ’Divine Foot Skill’ and ’Sanmei Divine Wind’, yet still could not pose any threat to him.

Li Yuanba realized the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ skill was being countered by the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ field. Although the range of ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ far exceeded that of the field, once inside, control was lost, and it dissipated.

The ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ formed by the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ skill was actually energy-converted gold element sand grains, losing the condition to form a solid once outside its control and thus dispersing.

Li Yuanba did not stop deploying ’Sanmei Divine Wind’, filling the area with Sanmei Divine Sand.

Xue Huan did not rush. Using inactivity to counter any activity, he floated in the air, allowing himself to be surrounded by ’Sanmei Divine Wind’.

Not that he didn’t want to rush out, but he had to fight Li Yuanba. If he truly moved away from him, Li Yuanba could just turn around and leave using ’Heightened Perception’.

He remained in place to entice Li Yuanba into attacking.

His gaze constantly scanned the surroundings, his brow slightly furrowed; the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ was not as worthless as he had claimed.

At least after Li Yuanba exerted it, he could not locate Li Yuanba within its range.

The ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ can disrupt divine sense, preventing it from penetrating the wind’s area.

Were it not for the ’Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ field repelling the wind, he might truly become blind and deaf inside it.

Even so, his only method to detect Li Yuanba was through his eyes.

But amidst the countless flying sands, finding Li Yuanba’s true form was hardly simple, as the sands impaired his vision.

Li Yuanba took out the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, pointed in Xue Huan’s direction, and from it, all energy-converted flying swords surged forth.
