Chapter 301: Garrisoned_2
After the initial practice, he found that the "Fiery Sun Jade Body Technique" was extremely compatible with his Taiji Dao Body.
When cultivating the "Fiery Sun Jade Body Technique" in the Supreme Yang state of a human body, there was no need for any spiritual objects to assist him, and he could achieve satisfactory results.
In three months, the "Fiery Sun Jade Body Technique" was making progress, and when he operated it, his skin shone like jade, and both his strength and defense were rapidly increasing.
The cultivation of the "Evil Corpse Spirit Record" for his Corpse Refining body was even smoother. This cultivation technique, which required a sufficiently spiritual Corpse Refining to practice, came naturally to Li Yuanba. In addition to balancing the Yin Yang imbalance caused by practicing the "Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique" during the day, the Corpse Refining body was also continuously strengthening each night.
There were three months left in his six-month sect duty, and he would need to consider the issue of cultivation resources after that.
The reason he took on the six-month duty was to gain a certain amount of contribution points while also solidifying his early-stage Golden Core realm and forming a certain level of combat power.
He planned to take on some short-term missions that were both dangerous and offered higher contribution points after completing this task, aiming to quickly accumulate a large amount of contribution points to exchange for the "Sky Concealing Secret Technique."
Without a concealing technique like the "Sky Concealing Secret Technique," he simply couldn't pass through Jieshan Mountain Pass's grand formation.
Compared to Foundation Establishment cultivators, Golden Core cultivators posed a certain threat, so the grand formation had extremely strict precautions against Golden Core cultivators. Without top-notch concealing techniques, approaching the formation would result in being detected.
"Eh!" He stopped thinking and looked outside.
He was in a cultivation room within his cave dwelling and could not see what was happening outside.
But Ten Thousand Sword Peak was a treasure he had refined, and its formation's perception was equivalent to his eyes. Following his heart's command, he saw what caused the drastic fluctuations of spiritual power just now.
A huge Spirit Turtle was battling with He Wei, while Liu Gang stood by, ready to intervene at any moment.
The grand formation of Northern Island was fully activated, and the Spirit Turtle had not entered the range of the grand formation, so the formation couldn't assist He Wei.
After observing for a moment, Li Yuanba knew that his fellow sect members were in trouble.
The Spirit Turtle was in the Great Demon Realm, of the same realm as his fellow sect members, but it was clear that the turtle's strength was superior.
He Wei's spear-type treasure hit the Spirit Turtle multiple times, but it just couldn't break through its defense, forcing He Wei to constantly dodge and not daring to take the attacks head-on.
Li Yuanba initially thought his fellow sect members would gang up on the Spirit Turtle for a while and, after running out of options, send him a message asking for help.
However, after He Wei attacked several times in succession without any success, Li Yuanba received a distress message from Liu Gang.
Li Yuanba didn't hesitate; this was his duty to the sect. Since he hadn't contributed much usually, it was natural to lend a hand amid trouble.
He flashed out of his cave dwelling, with a wave of his hand, Ten Thousand Sword Peak transformed into a tiny mountain and landed in his palm, and he flew towards the battlefield.
"Junior Li, I don't know where this Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon came from, please lend a hand!" Liu Gang hurriedly said upon seeing Li Yuanba arrive.
Li Yuanba had not heard of the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle before, but from the battle he had just observed, he could tell that the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon's defensive power was astonishing.
With a wave of his hand, the Xingyi Sword shot out, heavily striking the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon with the Supreme Yang Sword Intent imbued within the sword.
The Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon shuddered, abandoning the battle with He Wei and turning its gaze towards Li Yuanba.
This sword seemed to have enraged the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon, its eyes filled with furious wrath.
"Be careful of the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon's Earth Attribute spells!" He Wei shifted to the side and shouted loudly in warning.
Li Yuanba felt his body grow heavier, as if he had entered a Gravity Field, which slowed his movement speed and even made his reactions a bit slower.
It was only the robust physique of a Golden Core cultivator that allowed one to withstand the Gravity Field; a Foundation Establishment cultivator would have all their bones shattered and perish under such pressure.
What terrified him most was the effect of that sword strike just now.
That strike had been executed with the "Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique," and though it wasn't his full strength, he had used eighty percent of his power.
With such a sword strike, he was confident that even a Golden Core Early Stage cultivator would not escape unscathed if hit.
But when this sword strike hit the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon, it had only enraged it, and Li Shiming didn't even receive feedback of injury from the Xingyi Sword.
The Xingyi Sword flew back, splitting into a beam of sword light that carried him to speed up and avoid a beam of earthy yellow light spit out by the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon.
He sensed an astonishing Earth Attribute Spiritual Power reaction, knowing that if he were hit by this earthy yellow light beam, even if he had a defensive treasure, it would be contaminated by the Earth Attribute Spiritual Power, greatly losing its spirit.
This Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon clearly only had the strength of the Early Stage Great Demon, equivalent to a cultivator's Golden Core Early Stage, but its strength was far beyond imagination.
"Slash!" With the help of the differentiated sword light, Li Yuanba could use Sword Escape to accelerate and reduce the influence of the Gravity Field.
The Xingyi Sword kept slashing out, hitting the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon time and again, only to further enrage it.
"Junior Li, the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon cannot be killed. Without the attack power of a Late-stage Golden Core, it's impossible to break through the defense of the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon. Just drive it away!" He Wei, seeing Li Yuanba's continuous attacks, couldn't help but remind him once more.
Liu Gang, on the other hand, had retreated far away, seemingly very fearful of Li Yuanba's Sword Intent, lest he be affected by it.
It was known that the Xingyi Sword could enhance the effect of Sword Intent by 135%, making the Supreme Yang Sword Intent used this time more than twice as strong as the last time Li Yuanba used it to expel the "Fate Communication" from Qianye Temple.
The Supreme Yang Sword Intent naturally countered demonic techniques, which suggested that Liu Gang's cultivation involved some sort of demonic technique, hence his great fear of the Supreme Yang Sword Intent.
Li Yuanba's brows furrowed slightly as his continuous sword strikes also made him realize how formidable the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon's defensive power was.
On its shell, glowing with earthy yellow light and intricate patterns flashing, the Xingyi Sword hadn't even touched the shell itself before being blocked by the earthy yellow patterns.
Had it not been for the harassment of the Supreme Yang Sword Intent, he guessed that even a hundred slashes would not cause any reaction in the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon.
But after the Supreme Yang Sword Intent passed through the earthy yellow patterns and the shell, the impact it could have on the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon was minimal, unable to truly harm the demon itself.
"Then let's try the power of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak!" Li Yuanba thought to himself.
Since he had successfully refined the Ten Thousand Sword Peak Treasure, he had never truly utilized it, using it only as a cultivation space.
The Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon in front of him was the perfect target to test the power of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak. The demon moved slowly but possessed an extremely strong defense.
"Suppress!" He shouted loudly, a miniature Ten Thousand Sword Peak appearing in his hand, which he then threw out.
Upon throwing, the Ten Thousand Sword Peak Treasure flew above the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon, then instantly transformed into the full status of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak, heavily pressing down on the demon.
The Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon seemed to sense the dreadfulness of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak as well; it tried to flee but a Gravity Field several times stronger than the one it produced enveloped it from below the Ten Thousand Sword Peak, making its movements even slower.
The Ten Thousand Sword Peak fell from the sky, heavily pressing onto the back of the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon, which hadn't managed to escape in time, pushing it from the sky to the sea surface and then pressing it further downward.
The seawater surged outward, creating waves tens of meters high, crashing against the formation of Northern Island.
The Ten Thousand Sword Peak continued to press down, only stopping after pushing the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle Demon all the way to the seabed.
He Wei and Liu Gang, who were observing the battle at the side, were stunned by the might of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak. There had always been rumors within the sect about refining the Ten Thousand Sword Peak into a powerful treasure.
But having the chance to witness its power with their own eyes, both Golden Core cultivators were left feeling their scalps go numb and their minds roiled with excitement.
