Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1629: Chapter 861: Startled Retreat

”Senior Brother Jian, how about you let me take this, and give me a chance?” Li Yuanba said with a smile to Cultivator Jian Tianyi.

”Alright, I’m too lazy to make a move, the opponent is too weak!” Cultivator Jian Tianyi shrugged it off, waving his hand as he spoke.

It wasn’t arrogance; given his combat strength, none of the over thirty great cultivators on the opposite side could withstand a single stroke from him.

Though Cultivator Jian Tianyi agreed, his face showed a peculiar smile.

”Greetings, Brother Wu!” Only then did Li Yuanba notice another great cultivator by the side, and he stepped up to greet him.

”Junior Li, finally a chance to see you in action!” Grandmaster Wu’s eyes gleamed with a passionate light.

Li Yuanba’s rise was rapid; Grandmaster Wu had witnessed his growth, but since his promotion to a great cultivator, he hadn’t seen his true combat prowess, only heard of his defeat of Great Venerable Ming Hai.

”There are a few days left, why not sit down and rest? I’ve brought some good tea!” Li Yuanba pointed to a stone table and chairs nearby.

He took out Fourth Grade Spirit Tea and Fourth Grade Spirit Spring, starting to boil water with the ’Six Yang Spirit Fire.’

”Is this the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea crafted by Li Shizhen? Wuwei is quite stingy, only bringing out a bit each time!” Cultivator Jian Tianyi sniffed the tea fragrance after sitting down.

Grandmaster Wu also followed suit and sat down, his eyes fixed on Li Yuanba’s actions.

Due to Li Shiming’s renowned alchemy skills in the Cultivation World, his Fourth Grade Spirit Tea became even more famous.

Unfortunately, it’s extremely challenging to taste the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea hand-crafted by Li Shiming, as it’s only available to a few of his friends.

The previously scattered batches of this Fourth Grade Spirit Tea were consumed after a hundred years.

The three Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators sat together, sipping top-notch spiritual tea while exchanging insights on sword intent.

Among the three Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators, Li Yuanba had been a great cultivator for the shortest time and had the lowest cultivation level, but often an offhand remark during the exchange of sword intent would lead the other two into contemplation.

Of course, such exchanges wouldn’t delve too deeply; even if one wished to explain their sword intent, words couldn’t adequately express it.

The three Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators enjoyed good tea, engaged in pleasant exchanges, while outside the great cultivator resource point, nearly forty great cultivators had gathered, not as relaxed as the three Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators.

With nearly forty great cultivators gathered, they had to remain vigilant against each other’s ambushes, unable to relax and constantly in a state of tension.

Despite the tense atmosphere, no great cultivator made a premature move; after all, this was the great cultivator resource point of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. The best way to deal with the Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators was to use numbers to first attack the defending Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators.

Several days passed, and Li Yuanba sensed the mature aura of the Great Cultivator Spirit Medicine.

”It’s about to begin; I’ll reinforce the formation!” Li Yuanba said as he stood up.

He took out one hundred and eighty array flags, quickly tossing them into the formation at the resource point.

The placement of these one hundred and eighty array flags was arranged according to IBMz15’s enhancement plan for the defensive array here.

”Your array skills might surpass any Array Master in the pavilion!” Cultivator Jian Tianyi couldn’t help but praise as he sensed the changes in the defensive array.

Although such a defensive array couldn’t withstand a round of attacks from dozens of great cultivators, it could prevent small-scale surprise attacks by great cultivators.

Li Yuanba’s ’Chaos Sword Intent’ surged, and a formidable sword intent rose from the great cultivator resource point.

Grandmaster Wu followed by unleashing his ’Demon-breaking Sword Intent,’ with a similar sword intent rising up.

Finally, Cultivator Jian Tianyi released his ’Void-breaking Sword Intent,’ immediately suppressing Grandmaster Wu’s ’Demon-breaking Sword Intent’ and resonating with Li Yuanba’s ’Chaos Sword Intent.’

He gazed with surprise at Li Yuanba’s ’Chaos Sword Intent,’ sensing the aura of the ’Sword Intent Stele’ from it.

As a direct descendant of the Jian Family, he naturally encountered the ’Sword Intent Stele’ more than once.

He knew that a sword cultivator’s time accepting the ’Sword Intent Stele’ inheritance was limited, and to comprehend just one sword intent within that limited time was already incredibly challenging.

From his knowledge, sword cultivators who had the chance to receive the ’Sword Intent Stele’ inheritance took decades or even centuries through repeated inheritances to comprehend one sword intent.

Yet, Li Yuanba, having only received the ’Sword Intent Stele’ inheritance once, had mastered an immensely powerful sword intent, incredibly close to the most potent sword intent within the ’Sword Intent Stele.’

He could only admire Li Yuanba’s talent in the Sword Dao.

”It’s Jian Tianyi!” A panicked and horrified shout rang out.

Initially, Li Yuanba’s ’Chaos Sword Intent’ rose, followed by Grandmaster Wu’s ’Demon-breaking Sword Intent,’ causing no surprise among the forty great cultivators.

A significant reason was that none of the great cultivators recognized Li Yuanba’s ’Chaos Sword Intent’ yet.

But the moment the ’Void-breaking Sword Intent’ from Cultivator Jian Tianyi, a peak great cultivator, emerged, it instantly imposed a mental suppression on all the great cultivators present.

”The first sword intent is Li Yuanba’s; I recognize it!” declared another voice.

This great cultivator had previously faced Li Yuanba in battle and now recognized his ’Chaos Sword Intent.’
