After drinking a cup of tea at the Zhongzhou Commercial Bank branch, Li Shiming left.
Without the burden of four long-distance flying boats, his speed increased instantly.
He used 'A World Away' without any scruples. Under the effects of 'Color Changing Cloak' and 'Hidden Phoenix Jade Talisman', his whereabouts were silent.
On the other side, Li Yuanba in Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion came out of seclusion. When he walked out of the cave, Jian Lao suddenly appeared beside him.
Of course, it was impossible for Master Jian to explore the interior of his cave at any time. He had entered his cave at will before because he treated him as his junior.
However, the entire Sword Cave Heaven and even the entire Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion are under the perception of Old Sword, and everything that happens will be known to him.
When Li Yuanba left the cave, Old Jian discovered the change in Li Yuanba's realm.
"Good boy, I was right about you!" Old Jian smiled and praised Li Yuanba.
He was very optimistic about Li Yuanba and regarded Li Yuanba as the guardian swordsman of the next generation of sword master. Li Yuanba was more outstanding than he expected.
In a short period of time, Li Yuanba was promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, which was at least a hundred years earlier than Jian Lao estimated.
This is a hundred years, not to mention Li Yuanba's own age, which makes Li Yuanba's future full of possibilities.
At this time, Master Jian was even considering whether to train Li Yuanba to be his successor. Perhaps Li Yuanba's talent could reach that level and become a powerful figure in Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion.
However, these still need more observation, as Li Yuanba has only been a member of Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion for too short a time.
Li Yuanba has only come out of seclusion now because he spent some time to stabilize his state of mind.
He currently does not have much spiritual power in his body, just enough to barely fight a small-scale battle.
He has the ability of divine feet, so he doesn't have to worry about any danger. The ability can ensure that he can escape from the battle at any time.
"Master Jian, I would also like to thank you for allowing me to participate in the trial!" Li Yuanba bowed and saluted.
"Which sword cultivator in the Jian family has not participated in the trial? This is an opportunity you have fought for yourself. What are your plans?" Old Jian said with a smile and waved his hand.
"I need to strengthen my own flying sword and bring back some resources for cultivation!" Li Yuanba said without hiding anything.
Old Jian was slightly startled. He knew that Li Yuanba's natal flying sword was a top-grade fourth-grade flying sword. Hearing that Li Yuanba wanted to strengthen it further, he was a little surprised.
On second thought, Li Yuanba was able to have the resources to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage while wandering outside, so he must have some secrets of his own.
Although he likes to explore secrets, this kind of matter concerns the secrets of a cultivator's personal cultivation. As long as it does not happen in the Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion, he will not look into it too much.
"As for cultivation resources, you can get some resource rewards when you advance to the middle Nascent Soul stage. You can use your identity jade disc to claim them later!" Old Jian instructed.
"Thank you, Master Jian!" Li Yuanba bowed again to express his gratitude.
"Okay, you have just been promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul. You'd better be more careful. At least wait until your realm is stable enough before going out to take on dangerous missions!" Old Jian gave his final instructions and his figure disappeared.
Li Yuanba smiled. He could sense Master Jian’s concern.
He flew out of the Sword Cave, then performed the sword escape technique and flew towards the outside of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
After leaving the range of Jian Yi Chong Xiao Pavilion, he used the "So Close Yet So Far Away" technique and quickly approached Li Shiming.
The two monks who had mastered the ability of supernatural powers managed to meet each other in just three days on this fairly long journey, with Li Shiming travelling most of the distance.
Li Shiming surpassed Li Yuanba in realm, and he used multiple brains to control 'A World Away' at the same time, allowing 'A World Away' to be performed with almost no delay.
"Fellow Daoist, nice to meet you again!" Li Shiming smiled as he looked at Li Yuanba opposite him, performed a monk's salute and said.
"Hello, fellow Taoist!" Li Yuanba also returned the greeting with a smile.
If they didn't know that they were the original body and its clone, to outsiders, they would just look like two ordinary cultivators meeting each other.
Li Shiming saw an uninhabited island not far away. There were many such uninhabited islands around the Zhongzhou continent.
He and Li Yuanba came to an uninhabited island. With a wave of his hand, several fourth-grade formation flags flew to the ground, forming a hidden formation.
The two men walked into the formation, and Li Shiming took out a fourth-grade tea table and chairs. These were all spoils of war. He had killed quite a few mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, and there were quite a few of these fourth-grade spiritual objects for daily use.
The middle stage of the Nascent Soul is a special realm. The cultivators at this realm have become the backbone of a force or sect, possessing greater power and having access to more resources.
The longer lifespan allows cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to have the qualifications and conditions to enjoy life, which is why they have these living spiritual objects made of fourth-grade materials that are enough to make cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul jealous.
Afterwards, Li Shiming took out a set of fourth-grade tea sets and a fourth-grade cauldron and personally brewed a cup of fourth-grade spiritual tea for Li Yuanba.
The two of them sipped the spiritual tea in silence. The feeling was very special. They were one person, but had two different feelings.
"Fellow Daoist, please!" After drinking a cup of fourth-grade spiritual tea, Li Yuanba took out his own natal flying sword, the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword, and placed it in front of Li Shiming and said.
It is estimated that in the entire world of immortal cultivation, there is no other sword cultivator who would hand over his own natal flying sword to another cultivator like this.
Even if it is to strengthen one's own flying sword, a sword cultivator will only do it himself and will not ask other weapon refiners for help.
"It can be finished in ten days!" Li Shiming smiled and took over the fourth-grade sword technique.
If it was before he was promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it would take him at least several months to master the sword skill of the fourth rank. But now it is different, the improvement of his realm has allowed him to have an overall improvement.
In the computer room space, his control reached 1 nanometer, which overturned his original design of the fourth-grade sword.
If his 'Traceless Phantom Sword' and 'Heavenly Thunder Hammer' had not already taken shape, he would have wanted to refine these two top-grade fourth-grade life-saving magic weapons again.
Although the design of the Fourth-grade Xingyi Sword has been completely overturned, the original idea remains unchanged. The only change is that the original 5-nanometer lines are converted to 1 nanometer.
His design plan for the Fourth Grade Xing Yi Sword is to increase its speed, while at the same time taking into account its strength.
As for the sharpness and armor-piercing power of the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword, he no longer needs to consider strengthening this aspect after he has the "Breaking Void Sword Intent".
As Li Yuanba was guarding by his side, Li Shiming used one hundred and ninety of his brains when refining the weapon, leaving only one brain to handle other things.
One hundred and ninety brains transformed into one hundred and ninety independent consciousnesses in the computer room, cooperating with each other to start the process of attaching magic to the fourth-grade sword.
He planned to engrave 50 million tiny formations, five times more than the original design. Each tiny formation was composed of eight speed runes and one solid rune.
This means that the small sword of the fourth-grade sword has 400 million speed runes and 50 million solidity runes.
Ten days later, Li Shiming took out the completed fourth-grade sword from the computer room and threw it to Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba got the fourth-grade sword and immediately used the "A World Away" to leave the range of the hidden formation and reach a safe place far away.
He looked at the fourth-grade sword in his hand. Since Li Shiming and he were one, although the fourth-grade sword was a magic rune engraved by Li Shiming, he felt that it did not feel awkward at all, just like a magic rune engraved by him himself.
It was this lack of awkwardness that prevented his innate magical weapon, the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword, from weakening his control over the sword despite being strengthened with the help of others.
At the same time, he could feel the terrifying power from the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword. This was a flying sword that could threaten a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator with its own quality.
You should know that Li Yuanba has cultivated the sword body, which comes from the sword body cultivation method in the "Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky". Although there has been little progress after he was promoted to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, he has also entered the level of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
This allowed his defense to reach an astonishing level, but even with such defense, when he felt the Fourth-Rank Sword, he could clearly sense that the Fourth-Rank Sword could break through his defense without any support.
However, he didn't have time to check for too long as he sensed the changes in the sky.
Having reached this level of advancement, of course he would encounter equipment disasters. He had anticipated this and was not surprised at all.
He looked towards the thunderclouds in the sky, with pride flashing in his eyes. This was the first mid-Nascent Soul thunder tribulation that he and his original body Li Shiming had encountered, but he did not have any worries in his heart.
He is a sword cultivator, a sword cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, a sword cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul who has cultivated a sword body and has a super-powerful natal flying sword in his hand.
"Break it for me!" He shouted loudly, and before the first thunderbolt fell, his figure disappeared on the spot. He performed the "A World Away Yet Away" and appeared in the thundercloud.
The 'Breaking Void Sword Intent' was bestowed upon the fourth-grade sword, which cut through the thunderclouds.
"Too fast!" Li Yuanba exclaimed in his heart.
The four hundred million speed runes had an accelerating effect on the Fourth-Rank Xingyi Sword. If the Fourth-Rank Xingyi Sword was not his natal flying sword and there was an inexplicable connection between them, his spiritual sense would not be able to keep up with the flying speed of the Fourth-Rank Xingyi Sword.
Even so, the speed of the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword made it more difficult for him to control it.
That is to say, he had been practicing the 'Sword Intent Soaring into the Sky' since he was a child, and controlling the flying sword had almost become his instinct, so he could barely control a fourth-grade Xingyi sword.
The thundercloud that was gathering energy suddenly paused, and Li Yuanba's sword cut the thundercloud into countless small pieces.
In just a moment, the Fourth-Rank Sword under his control shuttled back and forth in the thunderclouds hundreds of times, forming a sword net through the cutting trajectory of the Fourth-Rank Sword.
This is not the flying sword that produces sword light and turns into a sword net, but the sword net composed of the body of the natal flying sword. The power of the two is incomparable.
The 'Breaking Void Sword Intent' exerted a terrifying power, and even when facing thunderclouds, it could break the lightning energy inside the thunderclouds.
If a cultivator went deep into the thundercloud, he would find that a cutting space network had been formed inside the thundercloud, which was formed by the "Breaking Void Sword Intent" breaking through the void.
Under such circumstances, the first thunderbolt from the thundercloud fell forcefully. A miniature thunderbolt so small that it couldn't even illuminate the sky passed through the void and landed on Li Yuanba.
The power of this miniature heavenly thunder was unable to even shake his sword, let alone affect his movements.
It really couldn't be blamed on the thundercloud. Just when the thundercloud was brewing the first bolt of lightning, Li Yuanba used "A World Away" to reach the thundercloud, followed by the fourth-grade sword that cut it.
When the thundercloud was brewing the thunder, most of the lightning energy was cut off, and only a very small part of the remaining part was retained, forming this miniature thunder.
This is probably the weakest heavenly thunder among all the thunder tribulations. Even a Jindan cultivator would not be killed by it.
The thundercloud was provoked and suddenly exploded violently. The power of the thunder and lightning inside the thundercloud increased, and the cutting space net created by the "Breaking Void Sword Intent" and the fourth-grade sword was swallowed up without a single breath of support.
"Second kill!" Li Yuanba shouted again.
Sipinxing's sword flew out, this time from the outer circle of the thundercloud to the inside, just like peeling a potato, cutting inwards little by little.
Due to the extremely fast speed of the fourth-grade sword, the big potato like Leiyun quickly shrank.
When Li Yuanba was facing the second heavenly thunder, he actually had time to test the power of the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword, which shows how much confidence he has in himself.
The speed of the thunder brewing in the thunderclouds has also increased a lot this time. Although this will affect the power of the thunder, it can at least ensure that the thunderclouds will not be weakened much.
However, the fourth-grade sword was still too fast. When the thundercloud sent out the second thunder, although its power was several times greater than the first thunder, it still did not pose any threat to Li Yuanba.
Just as Li Yuanba was about to use the fourth-grade sword to break through the thunderclouds, the energy between heaven and earth surged, and the thunderclouds suddenly increased a hundred times from their original size.
The terrifying pressure from heaven and earth enveloped the entire area, and also made Li Yuanba feel the pressure.
The power of heaven and earth cannot tolerate constant provocations. Li Yuanba's continuous provocations, like playing with thunder tribulation, finally angered heaven and earth.
Li Yuanba's face changed, but he did not retreat. At this time, there was no possibility for him to retreat.
The heavenly thunder can ignore everything and directly affect where the cultivator is.
He used the sword to its full potential. A fourth-grade Xingyi sword appeared in front of him as he wished. His Nascent Soul left his body and transformed into a ten-meter-tall Nascent Soul Dharma image.
The secret method of storing power of "Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky" was performed, and the spiritual power in the Nascent Soul Dharma Image continuously flowed into the fourth-grade Xingyi Sword.
He was shocked to find that the spiritual power that the fourth-grade sword could withstand was beyond his imagination. The 50 million solid runes that were originally intended to enhance the solidity of the fourth-grade sword also allowed the fourth-grade sword to withstand more spiritual power.
