Chapter 1341: Chapter 717: Pursuit

The three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners’ nascent souls that escaped from their physical bodies were still affected by the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’. The nascent souls tried to flee, but the endless forest formed by sword trees trapped them within.

If the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ cannot be broken, they cannot leave the formation’s range.

Li Yuanba waved his hand, and the seven Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords returned to the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’. In the brief attack, the energy of the ’Void-breaking Sword Intent’ of these seven Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords was completely depleted.

These seven Fourth Grade Energy Flying Swords could no longer participate in the subsequent battle. This rootless duckweed-like sword intent was consumed too quickly.

In fact, this was already quite remarkable. A single Fourth Grade Energy Flying Sword containing a Great Cultivator’s ’Void-breaking Sword Intent’ could slay a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner of a superpower.

The three nascent souls were terrified and wanted to escape, but as they repeatedly collided with the sword trees, they realized the possibility of leaving here was extremely small.

Li Yuanba shook his head. The ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ alone still lacked power. The formation controlled by the Artifact Spirit couldn’t achieve more variations.

It would require the Artifact Spirit to grow for a few more years before the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ could become more flexible.

Now, if he wanted to attack the enemies within the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’, he could only take action himself.

He didn’t use his Lifebound Flying Sword but activated the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ Divine Skill.

Countless ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ surged into the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’. Since the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ and the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ shared the same master, the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ wasn’t obstructed by the formation.

Of course, under Li Yuanba’s control, the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ didn’t fly randomly but danced according to the formation rules of the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’.

The sudden appearance of the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ made the already lost Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners within the formation extremely panicked.

The five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners who hadn’t been attacked before didn’t yet know that out of the other seven, four had fallen and only three had their nascent souls remaining.

Now, he had no time to think about other matters. The ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ continuously struck their defenses, and each grain of ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ hit like a flying sword from a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator.

For Earth Element cultivators, such separate attacks posed no threat at all, but when the number rose to thousands, it became entirely different.

What troubled them even more was the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’s’ impact on their divine sense, making their already lost state even more disoriented, unable to sense what dangers lurked around.

The most miserable were the three nascent souls. The ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ Divine Skill had a powerful attack effect on the soul and spirit. Without the protection of their physical bodies, each impact of the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ equaled a spiritual attack, targeting the nascent soul’s soul and spirit.

Just over ten breaths later, the three nascent souls’ soul and spirit degraded to a point where they couldn’t sustain the nascent soul’s existence. The nascent souls collapsed and exploded like balloons.

Now, only the last five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners remained on the battlefield, all enveloped by the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’.

Li Yuanba waved his hand, and the Artifact Spirit of the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ disbanded the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’. Thousands of energy-converted flying swords returned to the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, leaving only the gravitational field in effect.

He finally began to use his Lifebound Flying Sword Xingyi. The quality of the Xingyi Sword was suppressed to the fourth grade top level.

The five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners trapped within the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ still didn’t know that the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ had been withdrawn. They still thought they were trapped inside the formation.

They did not attempt to break out and escape the range of the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’.

If they truly wanted to break out and escape with all their might, Li Yuanba wasn’t confident he could keep them all.

The ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ prevented them from letting their divine sense leave their bodies, leading to the current situation where they mistakenly believed the ’Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Immortal Sword Formation’ was still active.

Xingyi Sword sliced through the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’, easily slaying a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner.

The reason for such ease was that the ’Sanmei Divine Sand’ continuously corroded this Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner’s defenses, diminishing their effectiveness significantly.

More so, the Xingyi Sword contained the ’Void-breaking Sword Intent’, which allowed it to break through the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner’s defense in a single strike.

Thereafter, the Xingyi Sword struck continuously, slaying five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners.

When Li Yuanba withdrew the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ Divine Skill, the battlefield was left empty, all twelve Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners’ corpses and spoils of war collected by him.

”Eye-opening!” Great Cultivator Lou clapped and laughed heartily.

He hadn’t participated in this battle at all. The White Emperor Sect suddenly lost twelve Nascent Soul Middle Stage elites, which would surely pain the White Emperor Sect.

Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners were not like cabbages; many were wiped out back in the Central State Continent, and now twelve Nascent Soul Middle Stage elites were lost all at once. Even though the White Emperor Sect was vast and powerful, they couldn’t bear such a loss.

Great Cultivator Lou observed Li Yuanba’s battle. Although Li Yuanba’s combat style clearly wasn’t purely that of a Sword Cultivator, he managed to fight one against twelve, with all twelve Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners being at a higher stage than Li Yuanba.

The results Li Yuanba achieved justified the means, even if they weren’t purely Sword Cultivator methods, they were acceptable.
