In the Little Lei Yin Temple, Great Venerable Hongfa arranged the corpses of the monks, chanting the Soul Calming Spell as he went.
His face was full of sorrow, for the monks and also for himself.
From now on, his peaceful life would be gone forever; he would beco Li Yuanba’s servant and live at Li Yuanba’s whim.
Before death ca, he shouted out pleas for rcy, but not rely due to fear of death.
Of course, fear of death was the most important reason, but he also discovered that Li Yuanba actually possessed two Spiritual Objects, along with Li Yuanba’s terrifying ’Chaos Sword Intent’. He was certain that Li Yuanba’s future achievents would be extrely extraordinary.
While tidying the corpses, he gathered all the spatial items, even though Li Yuanba gave no instructions. He believed it was his responsibility.
Now that he was Li Yuanba’s servant, he needed to consider Li Yuanba’s interests, prioritizing Li Yuanba’s interests above all.
As the Great Venerable of Little Lei Yin Temple, he was also well aware of Little Lei Yin Temple’s belongings, and after tidying the corpses, he began collecting the temple’s assets.
Even the Space Acceptance Array was dismantled by him; if not for the difficulty in dismantling the temple’s defense formation, he might have dismantled that, too.
The only body he did not tidy was Ming Fa’s, the body of Bai Yong, the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner.
Bai Yong died from the explosion of the Spiritual Object ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, crushed under the sustained gravity field, directly pressed to death, the kind of death where the soul is extinguished.
Li Yuanba put Bai Yong’s corpse aside and retracted the ’Infinite Great Isolation Decree’.
He then quietly watched Great Venerable Hongfa’s actions; in fact, he didn’t need to watch, he could sense Hongfa’s emotions and actions through the soul-binding contract, sharing Hongfa’s perceptions.
Furthermore, he could let IBMz15 take control of monitoring Hongfa; if Hongfa ever committed an act of betrayal anywhere, IBMz15 would forcibly destroy his soul through the soul-binding contract.
This soul-binding contract was extrely domineering, with the majority of Hongfa’s soul already influenced by the contract rune, and if the rune backfired, that majority of the soul would be destroyed.
Let alone a majority of the soul, even a small fraction being destroyed would greatly impair a cultivator’s mind, rendering them dented.
Though a Great Venerable is powerful, addressing the issues from the soul still enables complete control over the Great Venerable.
Li Yuanba was very satisfied with Great Venerable Hongfa’s actions; although he had not specifically requested them, Hongfa anticipated everything and exceeded his expectations.
"Once everything is tidied, let’s depart!" Li Yuanba gestured, saying.
"Yes, master!" Great Venerable Hongfa replied.
The two then perford the Divine Foot Skill, quickly vanishing from the Little Lei Yin Temple.
By the next day, a team led by a Great Venerable and six Mid-stage Venerables arrived outside Little Lei Yin Temple.
This was support from Da Leiyin Temple, requested by information manager Ming Fa.
The reason for sending a Great Venerable along with six Mid-stage Venerables was precisely out of concern for Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba had a record of killing Great Cultivators; dispatching only one Great Venerable wasn’t safe enough, combining the six Mid-stage Venerables would enable a fight against Li Yuanba.
From Da Leiyin Temple’s response, it’s evident that the Cultivation World’s understanding of Li Yuanba’s battle power has reached quite a level, nearly treating him as a Great Cultivator.
The Great Venerable glanced at Little Lei Yin Temple with suspicion in his eyes.
In his perception, Little Lei Yin Temple was deathly silent, devoid of any vitality.
He signaled a gesture; the six Mid-stage Venerables imdiately took out their magical items and surrounded the Great Venerable, forming a battle formation ready to confront the enemy.
This was Da Leiyin Temple’s strategy for dealing with Li Yuanba, where the six Mid-stage Venerables focused entirely on defense.
Whereas, the Great Venerable didn’t need to worry about defense; he only needed to attack.
For powerful Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivators like Li Yuanba, even though their attack power is extrely formidable, capable of slaying Great Cultivators, their defense wouldn’t be too strong; after all, Li Yuanba is rely at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
With such battle formation, they could completely suppress Li Yuanba.
As they cautiously entered Little Lei Yin Temple, they discovered the entire temple was devoid of a single monk.
"Did they evacuate?" A Mid-stage Venerable inspecting Little Lei Yin Temple spoke with surprise.
The reason for such a question was that the condition of Little Lei Yin Temple resembled a moving out.
If not for the temple’s own monks clearing everything, how could it be that all movable Spiritual Objects within the temple were taken without damaging any buildings or facilities?
Especially when inspecting formations, they found Little Lei Yin Temple’s protective formation entirely intact.
The Great Venerable glanced indifferently at the Mid-stage Venerable, wondering if he was an idiot.
"Amitabha, Little Lei Yin Temple has been exterminated!" he solemnly put his palms together and said.
In his perception, residual soul energy hadn’t completely dissipated, indicating a massive death had occurred here not long ago.
"Was it Li Yuanba’s doing? How dare he?" The Mid-stage Venerable exclaid through clenched teeth.
"If we find Ming Fa in Little Lei Yin Temple, we’ll definitely suffer continual losses!" The Great Venerable said helplessly.
