Cultivation is just so scientific!

Fortunately, they had this fourth-grade flying boat. With three Nascent Soul cultivators driving it together, they could increase the speed of the fourth-grade flying boat several times, so they were not left behind by Li Yuanba.

However, this left them embarrassed. Three Nascent Soul cultivators dealing with a Golden Core Great Cultivator were caught in such a situation of pursuit.

Li Yuanba was also troubled. Unlike his main body, Li Shiming, who had the direct help of his life-bound spiritual artifact IBMz15, allowing him to use the Divine Foot Skill with multiple brains simultaneously, without any intervals during its deployment.

But he couldn't do it. If it weren't for the existence of the Heart Hoop, enhancing his spirit, he wouldn't be able to match the speed of the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

Unfortunately, the special artifact Heart Hoop no longer had any spiritual boosts after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage.

"Slash!" He was escaping ahead, but he was not willing to be hunted down just like this.

Due to the effect of the Heart Hoop, his attack range was also doubled, and the three Nascent Soul cultivators inside the fourth-grade flying boat could not exert their Nascent Soul Dharma Forms, so he calculated the distance, and before once again using 'Step by Step Ascending Lotus,' he executed a Supreme Yang Sword Intent attack with the Xingyi Sword.

"How can a grain of light compete with the bright moon!" One of the Nascent Soul cultivators on the fourth-grade flying boat was somewhat angry upon seeing Li Yuanba dare to counterattack while being pursued.

With a wave of his hand, he intended to block the Supreme Yang Sword Intent attack.

Just as the spiritual power he released was about to block the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, the Supreme Yang Sword Intent suddenly flashed like a fish swimming through the intercepting spiritual power, slashing toward the fourth-grade flying boat.

Another Nascent Soul cultivator on the fourth-grade flying boat timely intervened, blocking this Supreme Yang Sword Intent.

This caused the former Nascent Soul cultivator's face to turn red. He hadn't utilized his true strength, merely blocking it casually. He perceived the mightiness of the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, so he didn't take it seriously.

Unexpectedly, the Supreme Yang Sword Intent was so flexible that, if not for the intervention of another Nascent Soul cultivator, the fourth-grade flying boat would have been attacked.

Although the defensive power of the fourth-grade flying boat was strong and wouldn't be destroyed by a Golden Core Great Cultivator's Supreme Yang Sword Intent, it would have been a major embarrassment if struck.

Unaware that Li Yuanba practiced the 'Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique,' the pinnacle of sword cultivation.

Though Li Yuanba's combat power was not as strong as these Nascent Soul cultivators, the quality of his cultivation technique was far superior.

The Nascent Soul cultivators summoned most quickly by the Hundred Refinement Sect included independent Nascent Soul cultivators and Nascent Soul cultivators from small and medium factions.

Their cultivation techniques were far inferior to those of the great sects' Nascent Soul cultivators, not to mention compared with a top-tier sword cultivation technique like the 'Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique.'

Therefore, it was normal for the Nascent Soul cultivators to suffer minor setbacks from Li Yuanba's unexpected sword intent attack.

Seemingly angered, that Nascent Soul cultivator emerged from the fourth-grade flying boat, standing atop it, his aura surging as he unleashed his Nascent Soul Dharma Form.

Li Yuanba, sensing the wrong aura from behind, immediately performed 'Chizhi Tianya,' pulling away the distance.

'Chizhi Tianya' consumed relatively more, but it covered a farther range, instantly taking him beyond the attack distance of the Nascent Soul Dharma Form.

The Nascent Soul cultivator performing the Nascent Soul Dharma Form felt extremely frustrated, as he wanted to attack Li Yuanba, but Li Yuanba was out of range.

He was also unwilling to chase Li Yuanba alone, knowing of Li Yuanba's track record and having heard of the Ancestor Song's ordeal.

Li Yuanba hadn't even unleashed his strongest Golden Corpse yet, so this Nascent Soul cultivator remained cautiously on alert, fearing an ambush by Li Yuanba's Golden Corpse.

"Damn it!" He abandoned the Nascent Soul Dharma Form and returned to the fourth-grade flying boat.

Li Yuanba swallowed a Spirit Pill to restore his spiritual power, slowing down slightly to close the gap with the fourth-grade flying boat, then launched another Supreme Yang Sword Intent attack.

He had planned that if real trouble arose, he would use the Jade Talisman to escape.

Until then, he would continuously provoke the three Nascent Soul cultivators; only by losing their composure did he have a chance to counterattack.

He also kept in contact with IBMz15, utilizing the drone satellite system to monitor the situation along the route; he didn't want to be blocked by cultivators.

Moreover, to prevent the three Nascent Soul cultivators from calculating his escape route, he kept changing directions.

During the chase, the pursuit battle between the three Nascent Soul cultivators and Li Yuanba lasted a whole day. Because they were in the fourth-grade flying boat, and being Nascent Soul cultivators, they had even more abundant spiritual power reserves.

Li Yuanba constantly used 'Step by Step Ascending Lotus,' occasionally deploying 'Chizhi Tianya,' which, despite him continuously taking Spirit Pills to restore spiritual power, caused significant consumption of his Golden Core's spiritual power.

The three Nascent Soul cultivators were extremely cunning, possibly because independent Nascent Soul cultivators and those from small and medium sects had encountered more deception. They were not affected by Li Yuanba's provocations, just waiting to deplete his spiritual power.

"Junior, is your sword intent tickling me? Use more strength!" a Nascent Soul cultivator ridiculed loudly.

Of course, he also wanted to anger Li Yuanba; once angered, if Li Yuanba slowed down, they could catch him.

Li Yuanba maintained an excellent mindset, not easily losing his mind at their provocation, as he continuously connected with IBMz15, which assisted him in analyzing the battle situation.

Through repeated counterattacks, his application of sword intent continually improved.

This was an extremely rare combat experience. His sword intent perception had reached the Nascent Soul Early Stage Peak due to his main body, Li Shiming, but limited by his realm, his sword intent was only at the Great Elder level.

Moreover, there was some disparity between sword intent perception and actual combat, and he gained substantial combat experience through repeated sword intent attacks.

Li Yuanba sensed the spiritual power within him, shook his head helplessly, and decided not to continue this way.

He mobilized his limited internal spiritual power, ultimately pouring it into the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, slashing at the rear fourth-grade flying boat.

He had no expectations for this strike, knowing that even if his sword intent application had improved, the gap in major realm was not something that sword intent application improvements could bridge.

Having already taken out his life-protecting Jade Talisman, he prepared to activate it to leave.

Suddenly, he stopped his actions, sensing that his Supreme Yang Sword Intent was unexpectedly infused with other sword intent, rapidly increasing the power of his Supreme Yang Sword Intent.

After sword intent is unleashed from the body, it's not that it loses connection with him.

Sword intent is the result of a sword cultivator's spirit and spiritual power undergoing countless tempering, along with their enlightenment of the sword, intrinsically a part of the sword cultivator.

Even after leaving the body, there remains a strong connection with the sword cultivator.

Especially through cultivating the 'Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique,' this connection is even stronger than typical sword cultivators.

The transformation of the Supreme Yang Sword Intent shocked him extremely.

It should be noted that sword intent is extremely exclusive; what kind of existence could merge its sword intent into another's? Such control over sword intent was beyond his capabilities.

Even though there was a transformation within the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, its external aura remained unchanged.

The Supreme Yang Sword Intent was like a shell of a Golden Core Great Elder's sword intent, with its interior being a fusion of sword intent from an unknown powerful existence and the Supreme Yang Sword Intent.

Only because Li Yuanba was the owner of the Supreme Yang Sword Intent could he perceive this change.

The three Nascent Soul cultivators on the fourth-grade flying boat behind did not sense anything different about this Supreme Yang Sword Intent.

A Nascent Soul cultivator still, as before, waved his hand to send out a spiritual power to block the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, but this spiritual power wasn't casually cast; it was a defensive secret technique.

As Li Yuanba's Supreme Yang Sword Intent became more cunning, inadvertently causing a Nascent Soul cultivator to lose face in front of peers, any of the three Nascent Soul cultivators would employ a defensive secret technique when defending, ensuring that Li Yuanba's Supreme Yang Sword Intent had no opportunity to escape control.

A spiritual power wall formed by the spiritual power of a Nascent Soul cultivator appeared in front of the fourth-grade flying boat, as the Supreme Yang Sword Intent was about to collide with the spiritual power wall.
