Chapter 309 Reinforcement



Shopkeeper Xin Shun carefully held a sealed jade box in his hand and extended it to Li Yuanba opposite him.

This jade box was sent from the other side through the shop's channel.

Li Yuanba took the jade box and checked the seal mark on the jade box in front of shopkeeper Xin Shun without any hesitation. He opened the jade box only after finding that there was nothing wrong.

Inside the jade box were two jade bottles, each containing ten third-grade elixirs. This was his first time testing the delivery of third-grade elixirs through this channel.

Twenty third-grade elixirs were already a huge benefit for this channel. If he had not informed the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint long ago, he might have been stopped halfway.

The real body of Li Shiming cannot leave the mountain gate, but he has followers, especially a follower named Ye Lingyun, who was successfully promoted to a foundation-building cultivator with the help of the foundation-building pill provided by Li Shiming.

Ye Lingyun arrived at the other side of Jieshan Pass with the jade box. She did not use Li Shiming's name, but the name of the Ye family. The Ye family is also a large family of immortal cultivators, so it is convenient for her to do things in this way.

In addition, Li Yuanba had already arranged the channels, so there was no risk at all in the entire process of transporting the jade box.

Shopkeeper Xin Shun was not surprised to see that it was a third-grade elixir. When reaching the Jindan stage, almost all Jindan cultivators’ first priority is to obtain cultivation resources. Third-grade elixirs are the most important among them, and are related to the Jindan cultivators’ cultivation.

As for why they want to obtain the third-grade elixir from the righteous forces, this is normal. Senluo Sect also has an alchemy master, but the alchemy master in Senluo Sect is best at making magic elixirs and rarely makes ordinary elixirs.

Therefore, the cultivators of the Senluo Sect who practice the orthodox techniques are relatively more scarce in elixirs.

"It's really the elder who has the means to buy the elixir made by Master Li Shiming!" Shopkeeper Xin Shun glanced at the mark on the jade bottle and couldn't help but compliment him.

The reputation of the alchemy master Li Shiming continued to grow as the elixirs he refined spread.

Even people in the Shiwandashan Mountains knew of Li Shiming's reputation. As the shopkeeper Xin Shun, who managed cultivation resources, how could he not recognize Li Shiming's mark?

"Thank you for your hard work this time!" Li Yuanba put away the third-grade elixir and waved his hand.

Shopkeeper Xin Shun knew what he meant and bowed before leaving the garrison.

Twenty third-grade elixirs were enough for Li Yuanba to practice for nearly two months, and he had no plans to use this channel to transport resources frequently.

In the days that followed, he felt the peace of Jieshan City.

He doesn't need to worry about any affairs. Deacon Yue Xing is quite capable. Under his efforts, Jieshan City runs smoothly without any mistakes.

With the resources, his cultivation also got on track. He practiced the 'Scorching Sun Jade Body Art' and the 'Sword Qi Soaring to the Sky Art' during the day, and the 'Evil Corpse Spirit Record' at night. His cultivation began to improve relatively quickly.

One month after he took over the mission of guarding Jieshan Town, he was refining his own natal flying sword Xing Yijian when he sensed that the identity jade disc suddenly reacted.

His mind swept across the identity jade disc and found that it was a message for help from Jiang Pu.

Without any hesitation, he soared into the air, and Xing Yijian turned into a sword light and shot towards the Jieshan Checkpoint.

As soon as he approached the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint, he sensed Jiang Pu's presence.

Jiang Pu was hovering above the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint, energizing his Qi to the fullest extent, covering the area below.

The other two Jindan elders had disappeared, which made Li Yuanba very puzzled.

"Junior Brother Li, you have arrived just in time. With your help, we don't have to worry about any trouble!" When Jiang Pu saw Li Yuanba coming, the worry on his face faded a lot. He greeted Li Yuanba and said.

"What happened?" Li Yuanba looked at the Jieshan Checkpoint. With his perception, he did not detect any fighting atmosphere below.

"Junior Brother Meng and Junior Brother Shi have already gone to pursue the rats from the Disha Sect who are sneaking through the checkpoints. I asked you to come here to help guard the Jieshan checkpoint to prevent others from taking advantage of the weak defense to break through!" Jiang Pu replied with a wry smile.

The Disha Sect is one of the three major demon sects, as famous as the Senluo Sect and the Yin Yang Sect.

"The Disha Sect is far away from the Ten Thousand Mountains. I didn't expect that the cultivators of the Disha Sect would enter the Ten Thousand Mountains from here!" Li Yuanba couldn't help but relax and said when he heard that there was no need to fight and they just came to help guard the Jieshan Pass.

He had joined the sect for too short a time, and had rarely heard about what was going on between the Senluo Sect and the other two major demon sects.

From what Jiang Pu said, it seems that the relationship between Senluo Sect and Disha Sect is not good, and they are even hostile.

"The core inherited skill of the Disha Sect, 'Disha Magic', requires the absorption of Disha Qi during the Jindan stage, and the best Disha Qi is the mountain evil Qi of the Ten Thousand Mountains. Absorbing the Disha Qi will cause a large loss of spirituality in an area, which is digging at the foundation of our Senluo Sect. Therefore, preventing the Disha Sect from entering the Ten Thousand Mountains is a matter of strict investigation for the sect!" Jiang Pu explained, shaking his head.

Li Yuanba's arrival made Jiang Pu not need to be too nervous. With their two Jindan elders at the Jieshan checkpoint, they were able to deal with general troubles.

"Is there going to be any problem with Senior Brother Meng and Senior Brother Shi?" Li Yuanba thought of the two Jindan elders who had chased out, and asked with some concern.

Although he has only been here for more than a month, he has already established a good friendship with the three Jindan elders at the Jieshan Checkpoint.

Whether it was exchanges on cultivation or using power to obtain resources, the four Jindan elders got along very happily. In Jiang Pu's opinion, Li Yuanba was even easier to talk to than the previous Jindan who guarded Jieshan City.

Who told Li Yuanba not to fight for resources? Although he doesn't fight for them, no one owes him the resources that belong to him.

"Junior Brother Shi has a tracking spirit rat. The Disha Sect's golden elixir that smuggled in is only in the early stage of the golden elixir and cannot escape their tracking!" Jiang Pu was very confident in the two golden elixir elders and answered with a smile.

While the two were talking, they simultaneously looked towards the other side of the checkpoint, where three golden elixir auras were approaching rapidly.

"I knew they would come here to cause some trouble and make us lose face!" Jiang Pu spread his hands helplessly.

He was not worried. Li Yuanba's fighting ability was quite good. With Li Yuanba's help, it would not be so easy for the three Jindan cultivators of the righteous path to cause trouble this time.

"Don't we have cooperation with them?" Li Yuanba asked in confusion, thinking of a dividend distribution not long ago.

That time, he got a third-grade spiritual medicine in the dividend distribution. With his cultivation level at the early stage of the Golden Elixir, it was enough for him to ask the alchemy master to make a furnace of third-grade spiritual medicine.

The dividends are shared among several Jindan monks guarding the checkpoints on both sides. All Jindan monks who participate in the reselling of resources, whether they are righteous or evil, will get a share.

From this we can see that although the two sides are in a state of hostility between good and evil, they also have friendship with each other.

"Cooperation is cooperation. Interests and hostility do not conflict. Whenever there is a chance, the righteous will come over to take advantage. Whether it is destroying the formation or severely injuring our cultivators, as long as the righteous does not transfer cultivators from the inland to reinforce them, it is all behavior within reasonable rules.

We are monks and need to be ready to fight at any time!" Jiang Pu explained to Li Yuanba.

As he was speaking, the three auras had already reached the outside of the formation. Jiang Pu nodded to Li Yuanba and flew towards the direction of the three auras. Li Yuanba followed closely behind.

"Brother Ying, Brother Xin, Brother Mu, why did you come here instead of staying over there to drink tea?" Jiang Pu said with a smile.

If it weren't for the eerie aura surrounding Jiang Pu and the flying spears emitting black gas beside him that could attack at any time, just by listening to what he said, one would have thought that this was a meeting between good friends.

"Didn't I come here to have tea with you?" Ying Hou, the leader, said with a wry smile.

His eyes fell on Li Yuanba. The sword intent on Li Yuanba's body made him slightly concerned, but after sensing Li Yuanba's realm, his expression relaxed.

The three righteous Jindan cultivators who came were all cultivators in the middle Jindan realm.

Three against two, the side with fewer people is at a lower level, and the righteous side has a huge advantage. How can Ying Hou not be happy?

The Jindan monks from both sides were guarding the checkpoint, which was two hundred miles apart. They were usually extremely bored, but they couldn't leave at will.

Therefore, whenever there is a chance to attack each other, the greatest pleasure is to deal a heavy blow to the opponent.

In addition, the sects behind both sides will give considerable rewards for successfully attacking the other side.

The checkpoints are the face of the sect. Being able to strike a blow to the enemy's face is a great publicity for the sect's reputation.

"Is this a newcomer? Is there no one left in the Senluo Sect? Why did they find a cultivator in the early Jindan stage?" Another Xin Tong spoke even more harshly, and his continuous questions made Jiang Pu look particularly ugly.

"Junior brother, Xin Tong has a very foul mouth. When we start fighting later, don't hold back!" Jiang Pu turned and said to Li Yuanba.

He didn't use telepathy because he wanted Xin Tong on the other side to hear it.

"Old rules, fight first, and take responsibility for any injuries you get!" Ying Hou said in a deep voice, not wanting to gain the upper hand with words.

He signaled to Mu Peng, who had been silent, and the two righteous Jindan cultivators rushed towards Jiang Pu together.

"Newcomer, I will teach you how to fight!" Xin Tong said to Li Yuanba with a grin.

Li Yuanba responded with his own flying sword. As soon as Xin Tong finished speaking, he shot out the sword and slashed at Xin Tong.

Xin Tong was well prepared and used a magic shield to block Xing Yi's sword.

The moment Xing Yijian collided with the magic shield, the hidden sword intent of Xing Yijian burst out.

When Li Yuanba found out that Xin Tong looked down on him, he was not angry at all. It was a good thing that the enemy looked down on him.

Therefore, he did not fully display his sword intent, and only let Xing Yijian's sword intent maintain the level that a sword cultivator in the early Jindan stage should have.

But in fact, Li Yuanba's sword intent had long surpassed the level of early Jindan sword cultivators, not to mention the enhancement of his sword intent by Xing Yijian. The 135% enhancement of his sword intent allowed his sword intent to more than double its own level when he burst out with all his strength.

Xin Tong was indeed rich in combat experience, and he took Li Yuanba very seriously. He said it lightly, but his defensive magic weapon was already ready to go. When Xing Yi's sword flew out, the shield magic weapon was ready for defense.

This was originally not wrong, but he did not expect that the power of Xing Yijian would be so strong.

With a "bang", Xing slashed the shield magic weapon with a sword. The extremely yang sword intent far exceeded Xin Tong's expectations. It pierced through the spiritual power layer on the shield magic weapon and entered the inside of the shield magic weapon.

Xin Tong only felt a pain in his head. The spiritual imprint inside the shield magic weapon that he had fully refined was mostly wiped out by this attack, leaving only very few spiritual imprints, which reduced his control over the shield magic weapon to a level that was difficult to control.

He was horrified and instinctively retreated with all his strength. At the same time, the flying sword on his body turned from offense to defense and blocked in front of him.

He no longer cared about his shield magic weapon, because the sword intent of Xing Yijian made his spiritual thoughts feel painful.

Xing Yijian's attacks were continuous and indecisive. Once he attacked, it was like a tide. The shield magic weapon only lasted for a moment before it completely lost control and fell down.

As he fell, Li Yuanba still had enough energy to use his spiritual power to catch the magic shield.

Xin Tong took out three talismans from his storage bracelet one after another. All of the talismans were of the third grade, and they turned into three spiritual shields to block him.

He understood his dangerous situation, so he had no intention of being stingy and used all the life-saving means he could.

The sword light transformed by Xing Yijian was divided into three. One of the three sword lights slashed towards the flying sword magic weapon, while the other two cleverly bypassed the flying sword magic weapon and chased after Xin Tong.

Although the fragmented sword light weakened the attack power, the sword intent contained in it did not weaken much.

In other words, the flying sword magic weapon is Xin Tong's natal magic weapon. Even though it was cut down several times in a row by the sword light transformed by Xing Yijian, it was still able to hold on.

However, two of the three spiritual shields outside Xin Tong's body had been broken, and the last spiritual shield was about to be broken.

The powerful sword intent is the nemesis of this kind of spiritual shield. The origin of the saying "one sword can break all magic" and most of its fame come from the sword intent's restraint on magic.

Li Yuanba was filled with murderous intent, and the sword intent on Xing Yijian also carried extreme murderous intent.

He seldom fought with cultivators of the same realm, so the battle with Xin Tong allowed him to fully display his sword skills.

What happened some time ago made him very angry, and Xin Tong just became the target of his anger.

Xing Yijian was powerless when facing the third-grade great demon, the Giant Vajra Turtle, and finally he had to rely on the magic weapon of Wanjian Peak to resolve the battle. That battle made him question the power of flying swords.

Not to mention that when he was defending Zhenbei Island later, he didn't even see the enemy, and the aftermath of the battle was enough to make him unable to resist.

This battle made Li Yuanba truly feel the power of Jindan sword cultivators. In the head-on combat, Xin Tong, a Jindan mid-stage cultivator who was at a higher level in realm, was almost unable to fight back under his sword.

In just a little while, Xin Tong's defeat would be inevitable.

Li Yuanba also truly recognized the sword cultivator, which eliminated his doubts about the flying sword. This was an extremely crucial thing.

"Junior Brother Mu, I'll go and help!" On the other side, Ying Hou saw Xin Tong's embarrassment, he shouted in a deep voice, and at the same time his figure withdrew from the battle and flew towards the battlefield between Li Yuanba and Xin Tong.
