Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1621: Chapter 857: Victory

”Boom,” the late-stage Golden Corpse blasted this Great Cultivator’s spell shield with one punch, perhaps out of confidence, or maybe due to being surrounded by so many Great Cultivators, this Great Cultivator did not activate a defensive magical artifact.

After the Golden Corpse shattered the Great Cultivator’s spell shield, its fist continued to strike forward.

The fist hit the body of the Great Cultivator, sending the Great Cultivator flying backwards, accompanied by the sound of cracking bones in mid-air.

Although the Great Cultivator did not perish immediately, he was severely wounded, with both his body and Nascent Soul sustaining heavy damage. If not treated promptly, death was inevitable.

As the Golden Corpse launched its attack, hitting the Great Cultivator’s body, its figure paused due to the assault.

This gave the other Great Cultivators an opening; all the other Great Cultivators present were poised to strike, ready to unleash their individual attacks in an instant.

It was at the same moment that Li Yuanba’s coordinated attack arrived.

Xingyi Sword emerged from the passageway, suppressing the top-level Fourth Grade quality, infused with ’Chaos Sword Intent.’

The terrifying ’Chaos Sword Intent’ caused chills to run down the spines of the Great Cultivators perceiving it, prompting an immediate and correct reaction; half of the Great Cultivators directed their magical artifacts towards the Xingyi Sword.

The other half, seven of the Great Cultivators’ various magical artifacts, still descended upon the Golden Corpse.

The Golden Corpse waved its hands, forming a defense in front of its body as it maneuvered quickly to dodge.

Out of the seven magical artifacts, only two struck the Golden Corpse’s body, the rest either dodged by it or blocked by its hands.

The two magical artifacts that hit the Golden Corpse’s body tore its robe, revealing white skin beneath.

On the skin struck by the two artifacts, faintly golden runes, too small to be discerned, flashed, yet the two artifacts did not break the Golden Corpse’s skin.

It’s noteworthy that these two magical artifacts were top-level Fourth Grade magic treasures, the kind only possessed by Great Cultivators from superpowers in this place.

The Golden Corpse, although its skin defenses weren’t broken, was still hurt by the blows.

It roared in anger, catching hold of a top-level Fourth Grade Jade Ruler Treasure that was about to withdraw after futile attacks.

The owner of the stolen Jade Ruler Treasure realized it was in the Golden Corpse’s grasp, hurriedly activated a spell to retrieve the Jade Ruler Treasure.

The Golden Corpse ignored the owner’s control, wielding the Jade Ruler Treasure as its weapon, using immense power to strike against other magical artifacts.

As for the Xingyi Sword, seven magical treasures charged ahead, the Chaos Sword Intent suddenly erupted, empowered by Sword Intent Rule, transforming the Xingyi Sword into an unstoppable blade.

Two ”crack” sounds echoed, followed by two Great Cultivators’ screams; five magical treasures were knocked away as the two at the forefront suffered the misfortune.

They were directly sliced in half by the Xingyi Sword, the screams of the Great Cultivators coming from the psychic backlash after their artifacts were destroyed.

Thus, the strongest blow from Xingyi Sword was consumed by the two magical treasures, allowing the other five to merely be swatted away.

Even so, the five Great Cultivators hurriedly recalled their magical artifacts for inspection.

The Xingyi Sword did not continue its attack, returning to Li Yuanba’s side where Li Yuanba once again infused it with ’Chaos Sword Intent.’

This strike truly displayed Li Yuanba’s current battle power.

A pure Sword Cultivator attack, facing seven opponents at once, countering seven Great Cultivators superior in cultivation, achieved such results, showcasing the frightening power of a Sword Cultivator.

The faces of the five Great Cultivators turned grave when they noticed varying degrees of damage within their magical artifacts; though not severe, further battles with Li Yuanba would inevitably ruin their artifacts.

The Golden Corpse, after using the Jade Ruler Treasure to fend off its attackers, demonstrated its speed once more, closing in on another Great Cultivator.

Within the resource point, space was inherently cramped, and the Great Cultivators dared not use excessively powerful attacks, rendering the battle unfair from the start.

The Golden Corpse didn’t need to worry about collateral damage from its attacks; avoiding long-range assaults, it relied on its close-range strikes, which wouldn’t cause unintended destruction.

Thus, the Golden Corpse’s combat effectiveness wasn’t much affected by the environment, while the Great Cultivators were constantly on guard.

”I’m withdrawing!” As the Golden Corpse approached, the targeted Great Cultivator ceased resisting and shouted aloud.

The Golden Corpse’s fist halted at his chest; despite having a spell shield and hastily applied defensive magical treasures, this Great Cultivator felt no sense of security.

He could ensure that a dual-layer of defensive artifacts and spell shield could not withstand the Golden Corpse’s punch.

Witnessing the earlier dejected state of the Great Cultivator who was struck with a single punch illustrates the outcome of taking such a blow.

The Golden Corpse shifted its gaze to another Great Cultivator; before it could strike, that Great Cultivator followed suit, exclaiming, ”I’m withdrawing!”

This is the tacit agreement; uttering withdrawal equates to forfeiting the contention for the Great Cultivators’ resources; unless there’s deep animosity, aggression typically ceases.
