Chapter 264: Chapter 178 Calamity_2
The Flying Boat had been flying at a low altitude for several hours, and during this journey, Li Shiming witnessed nurous battles.
There were battles involving Qi Refining Cultivators, battles involving Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, and even battles involving dozens of cultivators.
“It’s truly chaotic!” Li Shiming shook his head and sighed.
“As long as it doesn’t concern us, it’s good,” Li Yuanba also shook his head and said.
They did not conceal the aura of the Foundation Establishnt Stage on them, so no cultivator foolish enough sought trouble with them.
After Li Yuanba finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, beginning to comprehend Sword Intent.
...
Li Shiming also discovered that by transmitting the Sword Intent he had comprehended from the Sword Bone to Li Yuanba, and then having Li Yuanba reorganize it through “Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique”, the resulting Sword Intent was even more in tune with them.
“Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique” is fundantally a primary cultivation technique for sword cultivators; its core is Sword Intent.
The Sword Intent he comprehended from ordinary swords was rely the Sword Intent comprehended by the Golden Core Sword Cultivator Yun Xingyi; at most, he could simulate it through the Sword Bone’s Sword Intent.
But after Li Yuanba’s reinterpretation, the Sword Intent beca Li Yuanba’s own.
And since he and Li Yuanba were one, he could also use the Sword Intent Li Yuanba had comprehended.
Although the process was sowhat complicated, he distinctly felt an enhancent in the power of the Sword Intent.
“Trouble ahead!” There was a chase up front, with a female cultivator in the lead and five cultivators pursuing her.
The female cultivator was at the Foundation Establishnt Stage, using Sword Escape, and she was quite fast, but the five cultivators following her were also at the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and the Flying Boat they rode was a bit special, sohow keeping up with the speed of Sword Escape.
Li Shiming did not hesitate in the slightest; he imdiately directed the Flying Boat to turn away, attempting to keep a distance.
He had no interest in ddling in such troubles. He might not have wanted to find trouble, but trouble had indeed found him.
When the female cultivator spotted Li Shiming and Li Yuanba, she imdiately headed toward them.
“Fellow cultivators, I offer this treasure to you!” The female cultivator was very fast, surpassing Li Shiming’s Flying Boat, and as she ca closer, she tossed a box their way, shouting loudly.
Li Shiming frowned; he understood all too well that the female cultivator was trying to divert disaster towards them.
It was even questionable whether there were any treasures in the box. She rely wanted him to intervene and hold off the pursuers behind her, giving her a chance to escape.
He waved his hand, and a wave of Spiritual Power shot out, sending the box back.
“This matter does not concern us; co any closer, and do not bla
for being ruthless!” Li Shiming sternly rebuked.
His body surged with Spiritual Power, and a glimpse of lightning flashed in his eyes, emanating a terrifying oppressive aura.
Though he had just advanced to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, one must not forget that his Spiritual Power was exceedingly refined; in terms of quality alone, it was comparable to a cultivator who had practiced for many years at the peak of early-stage Foundation Establishnt.
Advancing realms in the Foundation Establishnt Stage is not as easy as in the Qi Refinent Realm.
The majority of cultivators who eventually achieve the Golden Core spend most of their lives in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and the cultivation at this stage is extrely slow.
Without decades of accumulation and enough luck, it is very difficult to advance even a small step.
This causes a significant disparity in the strength among cultivators at the initial stage of Foundation Establishnt.
“It seems Mr. Yi has found so help!” The delay allowed the pursuing Flying Boat to catch up nearby, and a haughty voice reached them.
Li Shiming looked at the Flying Boat; the speaker was a young man with a hawk nose and narrow eyes, possessing the strength of early-stage Foundation Establishnt. From his posture and standing position, he seed to be the leader among the five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
What grabbed his attention most, however, was an old cultivator standing behind the young man, a mid-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, and the strongest among the five.
“Gentleman, your matter does not concern us. We have our own business to attend to, and can’t accompany you!” Li Shiming said, clasping his fists.
“I’ve given you the item, you must keep your word!” the female cultivator said sharply, her eyes not looking at Li Shiming but constantly glancing towards the silent Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba was indeed too captivating for the cultivators, his perfect face that made n jealous and won crazy, often affecting the minds of cultivators in battles.
Seeing the female cultivator trying to drag him into the situation, and noticing the young man’s eyes revealing a murderous intent, Li Shiming inwardly sighed at the trouble.
“Fellow, it seems we are headed for a battle!” Li Shiming reluctantly said to Li Yuanba.
Instantly, Sword Intent surged around Li Yuanba, and the Gale Golden Light Sword flashed out, turning into a beam of sword light that struck directly at the female cultivator.
In front of the female cultivator appeared a shield, and Li Shiming was slightly surprised to see that this shield was a Spiritual Artifact.
It wasn’t that Li Shiming hadn’t seen much of the world, but the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators he had previously encountered in Beishu rarely used Spiritual Artifacts.
It was only the old cultivator from the Wei family who had two Spiritual Artifacts; the rest of the several Foundation Establishnt Cultivators all used Super-grade Magical Artifacts.
However, a Spiritual Artifact shield trying to block the attack of a Sword Cultivator of the sa stage, especially under a surprise attack from Li Yuanba, was not an easy task.
“You are a Sword Cultivator!” the female cultivator’s expression changed drastically as she exclaid.
The Gale Golden Light Sword struck the female cultivator’s Spiritual Artifact shield, imdiately causing her to feel her control over the shield weakening. A few more strikes and she would completely lose control over the Spiritual Artifact shield.
Li Shiming also made his move, launching nine flying swords from the Nine Palace Sword Formation, surrounding the female cultivator and five other Foundation Establishnt Cultivators with himself at the center.
The nine flying swords hovered in the air, electricity flickering between them, linking the swords and forming a Formation.
This was the Shock Thunder Array he had devised based on the major node studies of the Zhen Peak’s large formation, arranged in the Nine Palace thod.
The greatest purpose of the Shock Thunder Array was to invoke the Power of thunder and lightning. As the nine flying swords ford the Shock Thunder Array, more and more thunder and lightning accumulated within the formation.
“We are cultivators from Baoze Mountain, it’s best you retreat now, or bear the consequences!” At this mont, a mid-stage Foundation Establishnt old man behind the young man spoke up.
His expression was solemn as he watched the Formation surrounding them, the thunderous aura on Li Shiming, and combined with the fact that Li Yuanba was a Sword Cultivator.
Thunder Cultivators in Magic Cultivation are extrely rare, just inheriting it. He was also an Array Master, and Sword Cultivators were infamously battle crazed; he had no wish to fight such enemies.
“I had no intention to get involved, but it’s too late now!” Li Shiming glanced coolly with eyes that bore no malice at the young man whose eyes were full of murderous intent and replied.
The young man opposite was clearly a cultivator who had a strong backing and was long pampered, forming a haughty character, which was why he readily showed murderous intent over trivial matters, provoked by Li Yuanba’s appearance.
Li Shiming understood such cultivators; if he really retreated, perhaps after the five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators dealt with the female cultivator, their next target would be to chase and kill him.
Perhaps the five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators could not defeat him, but the power behind them was definitely big trouble.
Hearing the mid-stage Foundation Establishnt old man declaring their identity, it seed that Baoze Mountain was not a simple power.
So, Li Shiming decided to resolve the trouble once and for all.
“Protect the young master, kill him!” The mid-stage Foundation Establishnt old cultivator looked helplessly at his young master, realizing there was no peaceful solution, and with no ti to ponder further, he shouted loudly.
By now, the Shock Thunder Array had taken shape, with nurous lightning snakes dancing within the formation.
It not only blocked the retreat of the female cultivator and the five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators but also interfered with their sight.
The female cultivator was entangled by Li Yuanba’s sword light, unable to retreat, and with every strike of the Sword Intent carried within the sword light, her face would pale as if it were striking her spirit directly.
The sword light was too fast, and it continued to increase in speed.
Li Shiming’s learning ability was exceptionally strong; he had quickly mastered the ‘Ten Directions Sword Cultivation Technique”s Sword Control Skill using his IBMz15, and his mastering it ant Li Yuanba had mastered it as well.
But there’s a difference between mastering it for learning and applying it in actual combat. It was Li Yuanba’s first ti using a Sword Cultivator’s battle thod against a cultivator of the sa level, and he was quickly assimilating and absorbing the learned Sword Control Skill.
