Cultivation is just so scientific!
Chapter 713 - 403: Resolution

Chapter 713: Chapter 403: Resolution

"You should feel lucky that I have a good relationship with Mr. Ying Hou, otherwise you would already be a corpse!" Li Yuanba said coldly.

At this moment, Yang Bao no longer had his previous arrogance. With his cultivation at the Golden Core Middle Stage, he was sweating profusely, with a flash of fear in his eyes.

Yang Bao was not a cultivator who had never experienced danger. Any cultivator who could cultivate to the Golden Core Middle Stage had survived numerous adventures.

But he had never encountered a cultivator like Li Yuanba, who, despite being at the same cultivation realm, he couldn’t even block a single sword strike.

He secretly regretted not gathering information about the checkpoint before coming.

Originally, he came with the pride of a major sect disciple, as the Righteous Gate’s checkpoint was usually manned by Golden Core cultivators from sects other than the three major Righteous Path sects. He had pulled strings to get the position of the stationed Golden Core cultivator, only to run into Li Yuanba.

"The Thousand Illusion Sect will not let you off!" Yang Bao still said bitterly, despite the flash of fear in his eyes.

Knowing that Li Yuanba had no intention of killing him, he felt somewhat relieved.

"You’re welcome to come and find me in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains!" Li Yuanba said with a faint smile.

The Xingyi Sword flickered, and its body slapped Yang Bao’s face, leaving a red mark, before flying back to Li Yuanba’s side.

Li Yuanba turned and walked away, taking Yang Bao’s flying sword treasure with him.

Watching Li Yuanba’s figure disappear, Yang Bao spat out a mouthful of blood. It was the backlash from the broken spirit imprint of his treasure, which he had been suppressing for the sake of his dignity.

"What happened?" Ying Hou and Xin Tong hurried over and, seeing Yang Bao’s miserable state, asked in surprise.

"Mr. Ying, do you know Li Yuanba?" Yang Bao asked, looking resentfully at Ying Hou.

"You drove Mr. Li away?" Before Ying Hou could answer, Xin Tong exclaimed in shock.

Xin Tong looked at Yang Bao with even more resentment than Yang Bao himself, as if he wanted to kill Yang Bao on the spot.

Yang Bao was startled. Although he was somewhat stronger in combat, the advantage was limited, especially since he had lost a flying sword treasure, leaving him without much of an advantage in a fight with Xin Tong.

"Mr. Yang, Li Yuanba is the disciple of Ancestor Lu of the Senluo Sect. Ancestor Lu has come to visit him multiple times. Now that you’ve made an enemy of Li Yuanba, it looks like you won’t be able to enter the outer buffer zone anymore!" Ying Hou warned in a grave voice.

Yang Bao and Li Yuanba were both disciples of major sects, but not all sect disciples were equal.

At the Golden Core Stage, it was mainly about one’s background. Those from the Nascent Soul Ancestor lineage were naturally held in higher regard, especially disciples who caught the attention of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

A chill went down Yang Bao’s spine. A grandchild cherished by a Nascent Soul Ancestor indeed had more status than a Golden Core Elder like him from the Thousand Illusion Sect, who lacked substantial backing.

Despite the benefits of the Jieshan Mountain Pass, none of the Golden Core Elders who truly held power within the Thousand Illusion Sect would come here.

A Golden Core Elder could manage resource-rich lands for the Thousand Illusion Sect or take care of important affairs within the sect, both of which brought far more benefits than the Jieshan Mountain Pass.

And not to mention that the Jieshan Mountain Pass was incredibly dangerous, as even Wisdom Light Arhat had perished there.

Li Yuanba hadn’t left the buffer zone but had just moved to a location far from the checkpoint. He was very familiar with the Righteous Path’s grand formation and easily bypassed it.

Previously, he found it troublesome, and if he encountered other cultivators while smuggling across the checkpoint, it was never a good thing for the Righteous Path.

But he guessed that from now on, if he wanted to exchange Spiritual Objects with his original body, Li Shiming, it would need to be done this way, especially while Yang Bao was at the Jieshan Mountain Pass.

A thousand miles from the checkpoint, he met with his original body, Li Shiming.

This time Li Shiming had come not only to collect the Fourth Grade Corpse Lotus treasure but also to deliver some Third Grade Advanced Spirit Pills for Li Yuanba’s cultivation.

Before, the Third Grade Advanced Spirit Pills prepared for Li Yuanba were for the Golden Core Early Stage, but now that Li Yuanba’s realm had improved, the Spirit Pills needed to be switched to ones suitable for the Golden Core Middle Stage.

Only because Li Shiming had an abundance of Third Grade Advanced Spirit Pills did he share some with Li Yuanba.

Now, Li Yuanba had a higher Cultivation Realm than Li Shiming. A single adventure not only eliminated the gap between the two but also allowed Li Yuanba to surpass Li Shiming.

Such is the meaning of adventure. Of course, if he had been discovered by the Fourth Grade Spirit Beast in that mountain cave, it would have been a different story.

Just like Elder Jing Geng, who couldn’t escape the pursuit of the wolf-headed human-shaped Fourth Grade Spirit Beast even with a Fourth Grade Life-saving Talisman.

Li Yuanba handed the troublesome Fourth Grade Corpse Lotus over to Li Shiming in exchange for the needed Third Grade Advanced Spirit Pills and other resources for cultivation before turning back.

Although extremely precious, the Fourth Grade Corpse Lotus wasn’t needed by Li Yuanba or Li Shiming until they reached the Golden Core Peak, so it was better to store it in the Machine Room Space.

After smuggling back through the grand formation, he arrived at the Senluo Sect’s Jieshan Mountain Pass.

"Junior Li, I’ve already heard about the situation. When should we set a trap and get rid of Yang Bao? The Thousand Illusion Sect wouldn’t start a war over a single Golden Core Elder!" Jiang Pu clearly received the message from Ying Hou and spoke straightforwardly upon seeing Li Yuanba.

For the sake of personal gain, Yang Bao had dared to stand in the way, so he had to bear the consequences.

For significant matters related to cultivation resources, it wasn’t just Yang Bao; Jiang Pu and other Golden Core Elders would figure out a way to deal with any trouble.

"Just handle it yourselves; I just had a breakthrough and need to go into retreat for a while!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and said.
