Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 572: Turning Point



These past two days, Li Yuanba has been enjoying himself greatly. Master Uncle Wu has held nothing back, explaining the profound essence of the 'Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique' to him.

Because Master Uncle Wu's realm is far higher than that of his master, Jian Wuwei, the gains he has received are massive.

His master, Jian Wuwei, relied entirely on his own insights to become a Nascent Soul Stage practitioner, and during this time he received no guidance. The only useful memories were from his time in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Therefore, the explanations Jian Wuwei gave to Li Yuanba were far less comprehensive and profound than those from Master Uncle Wu.

In just two days, Li Yuanba felt that his Supreme Yang Sword Intent had become increasingly solid, a manifestation of his Sword Intent's improvement.

At noon, he sat cross-legged on a meditation mat, Supreme Yang Sword Intent condensed in front of him while Master Uncle Wu watched with a smile from a short distance away.

Master Uncle Wu was very satisfied with this young disciple of the sect, his comprehension was the highest he had ever seen. He understood immediately after the explanation and could draw inferences beyond it.

Teaching such a young disciple filled him with delight.

What he didn't know was that when Li Yuanba was learning from him, he was also connecting to the IBMz15, having it record, analyze, and research the content of his explanations.

The IBMz15 analyzed and combined its findings with previously acquired knowledge of the Sword Dao, sharing the research results with Li Yuanba, which made him appear extraordinarily gifted.

Of course, Li Yuanba's own talent was also excellent, but without the help of the IBMz15, he wouldn't be so conspicuous.

It must be known that any cultivator who could join the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion possessed extremely high aptitude.

The threshold for a Sword Cultivator is inherently high; without considerable talent, one cannot become a Sword Cultivator. The Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion is a top-tier sect among sword cultivators, and naturally, the disciples they recruit are also the most elite sword cultivation talents.

Li Yuanba's mind was partly connected to the IBMz15 and partly comprehending his own Supreme Yang Sword Intent, with his entire spirit fully immersed in cultivation.

With Master Uncle Wu around, he didn't need to worry about his own safety at all.

If even Master Uncle Wu couldn't protect him, there was no need to think his own limited power could do anything.

Suddenly, Master Uncle Wu slightly frowned, gently waving his hand to turn a piece of Spiritual Power into a barrier to protect Li Yuanba within.

Outside the cave dwelling, the Hundred Refinement Sect had contacted twelve Nascent Soul cultivators, a total of fifteen Nascent Soul cultivators had arrived here.

Leading them was Zhao Shanhe, at the peak of the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he was the Second Supreme Elder of the Hundred Refinement Sect. It was said the Hundred Refinement Sect had another mid-stage cultivator, but they had not appeared in many years, making Zhao Shanhe the sect's strongest force.

That day, three Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioners came at the request of the Hundred Refinement Sect to hunt down Li Yuanba, but were never heard from again.

The three Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators hailed from two smaller sects, and the Hundred Refinement Sect had to provide an explanation to these two sects. The cultivators disappeared while in service of the Hundred Refinement Sect and were likely already dead.

Thus, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Hundred Refinement Sect had no choice but to personally take action.

Because of the previous incident where three Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators went missing, coupled with the matter of the Ancestor Song, the Hundred Refinement Sect, to ensure safety, contacted these twelve Nascent Soul cultivators to accompany them, preventing any further accidents.

And even if they couldn't track down Li Yuanba, this should suffice as an explanation to the two sects that lost their Nascent Soul cultivators.

Zhao Shanhe had not anticipated such ease; they had effortlessly located Li Yuanba's position, his combat aura left too obvious a trail, and nearby was a cave dwelling.

Fifteen Nascent Soul cultivators completely surrounded the cave, convinced that whoever was in the cave offering shelter to Li Yuanba could not escape from their grasp.

"Get lost, or I'll kill all of you!" Master Uncle Wu projected his voice outside the cave using Spiritual Power, speaking these words.

Simultaneously, a terrifying Sword Intent shot straight to the skies, a signature display of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, signifying his origin from the sect.

"It turns out to be a senior from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. I did not know the senior was here; I will leave immediately!" Before Zhao Shanhe could say anything, a Nascent Soul cultivator who had come along bowed and said.

Without even greeting Zhao Shanhe, he turned and left.

He didn't even consider Zhao Shanhe's and the Hundred Refinement Sect's thoughts; upon returning, he planned to demand an explanation from the Hundred Refinement Sect. If he had known earlier the opponent was a Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion Sword Cultivator, he would never have participated, even if threatened with death.

What is a Sword Cultivator? Just a bunch of madmen.

Few Sword Cultivator sects have auxiliary positions, not because they don't need them, but because when Sword Cultivator sects need spiritual medicine or resources, they rob enemy forces.

The growth path of a Sword Cultivator is one of constant battle, where through battle, their Sword Intent is continuously strengthened.

No cultivator is willing to become enemies with a Sword Cultivator sect, as Sword Cultivator sects are particularly happy when cultivators provoke them. For then they have a legitimate reason to eradicate that sect and seize their resources.

Following the departure of the first Nascent Soul cultivator, more Nascent Soul cultivators soon followed suit, making respectful gestures toward the cave as they departed.

Zhao Shanhe helplessly watched these Nascent Soul cultivators leave, exchanging glances with his two fellow sect members before turning and leaving as well.

Master Uncle Wu watched these Nascent Soul cultivators leave with indifference, not bothering to kill them.

In fact, if he wanted, to him, those Nascent Soul cultivators from smaller sects or even loose cultivating backgrounds were mere clay chickens and pottery dogs.

But these Nascent Soul cultivators were Li Yuanba's enemies, stepping stones for Li Yuanba's growth. Li Yuanba's Sword Intent needed them to sharpen and hone, so he wouldn't do it for him.
