As Li Yuanba becos more famous, even the Great Cultivators of the outer sects express their sincerest congratulations upon learning that Lou Wu has beco Li Yuanba’s disciple.
In fact, Li Yuanba’s alchemy skills are only known within the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion. If the outer sect were to learn of his alchemy prowess, Lou Wu joining him wouldn’t just be a congratulatory affair; it would be one of envy and jealousy.
"Yes, Master!" Lou Wu replied. He chuckled and asked, "Master, did you really single-handedly block the defenses of two Great Cultivators and a hundred Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners?"
"Who told you this?" Li Yuanba couldn’t help but be taken aback, and he replied with a mix of tears and laughter.
"We just ca over and heard it from the exiled cultivators here!" Lou Wu answered without hiding.
Exiled cultivators, also known as criminal cultivators, many of them co from major superpowers.
Although exiled here, many of them are acquaintances with the reinforcents, so it’s natural that news of the battles spreads.
However, Li Yuanba didn’t expect the exiled cultivators to exaggerate so much.
If he were truly that powerful, he would have long since entered the Hell Cave Heaven alone to seek out those ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essences,’ rather than waiting for reinforcents.
"Don’t believe everything people say. There were two Great Cultivators guarding alongside, and a hundred exiled cultivators assisting. Luckily, my five Mid-stage Golden Corpses are best at defense, so I made so contributions!" Li Yuanba waved his hand as he explained.
"Master, can I cultivate a corpse?" Lou Wu asked aloud.
"No!" Li Yuanba and Great Cultivator Lou denied in unison.
Li Yuanba and Great Cultivator Lou looked at each other and couldn’t help but laugh. Great Cultivator Lou gestured to Li Yuanba, aning for him to explain to Lou Wu.
"My five Mid-stage Golden Corpses were refined with the help of a friend who has special corpse refining techniques and used so special materials. It’s not to ntion that a Sword Cultivator’s primary focus should be on the Lifebound Flying Sword, without distractions that could affect their cultivation in the sword. Ordinary Mid-stage Golden Corpses, in front of cultivators of the sa stage, are easily slain by a single sword strike. Instead of exhausting resources on refining corpses, one should concentrate on cultivating the sword path!" Li Yuanba explained to Lou Wu.
"I was just ntioning it because many cultivators who ca over, after hearing about Master’s feats, started wanting to cultivate corpses!" Lou Wu realized the impossibility after hearing Master and father both against the idea and acknowledged that Sword Cultivators should not pursue corpse cultivation.
"Just monts ago, a Beidou Sect cultivator’s eight Mid-stage Golden Corpses were instantly killed while facing Hell monsters, completely destroyed despite hundreds of years of cultivation effort!" Li Yuanba continued about the recent event.
"Don’t compare yourself to your Master. Even without the help of Golden Corpses, your Master is the first among Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners. To him, Golden Corpses are rely auxiliary tools. Moreover, at the age of a hundred, Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners can still have ti to reach higher realms even with so distractions!" Great Cultivator Lou’s words sowhat discouraged Lou Wu.
Lou Wu’s talent is quite decent, among Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners, he’s considered young.
But it depends on who you compare it with. Next to Li Yuanba, there’s no comparison at all.
"Yuanba, Sword Elder asked to bring this to you. It’s the Pavilion’s gratitude and hopes for you to make an even greater impact!" Great Cultivator Lou turned to Li Yuanba, handing over a jade box to him.
"What is this?" Li Yuanba asked as he accepted the jade box.
"Open it and see for yourself. Ensure to set up an isolation spell before you open it to prevent the aura from escaping!" Great Cultivator Lou said with a smile.
Before Li Yuanba could arrange the isolation, Great Cultivator Lou cast several Spiritual Power Patterns to set up an isolation around them.
Li Yuanba opened the jade box eagerly, revealing a heart-shaped wooden piece inside.
As soon as the box was opened, he sensed a rich life aura, feeling an incredibly intimate connection.
"This is the Innate Jianmu Tree Heart, which can only form within the Grotto Heaven of wood-elent great cultivators. Paired with your ’Innate Wood’ divine skills, it can multiply the effectiveness of your ’Innate Wood’ divine skills nurous tis, and it can also provide energy for your ’Innate Wood’ divine skills!" Great Cultivator Lou explained to Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba naturally sensed the extraordinariness of the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart.’ This wasn’t a magical item but a peculiar treasure.
He wasn’t sure how Sword Elder obtained the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart,’ but he was well aware of its strong allure for him.
He perford a Master Recognition Technique, allowing it to rge into the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart.’
While waiting for the Master Recognition Technique to take effect, the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart’ suddenly transford into a green light that entered his body.
He was initially shocked and hurriedly used his mind to inspect his body.
Soon, he discovered a heart within the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune in his Nascent Soul where the rune short sword was.
The heart beat slowly, with each beat it infused a stream of green energy into the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune, while green energy from the rune flowed back into the heart on the other side.
The ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune seed to co alive, and the green energy circulated like blood inside as the heart beat.
He felt the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill was no longer as awkward as before; even though he shared the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill insights with his main body, Li Shiming.
But since he himself did not have the wood elent talent, the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill was more like sothing foreign, unable to freely wield it.
Now, things were entirely different. He felt the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill was part of him, and he could use it at will.
Great Cultivator Lou also watched Li Yuanba, with surprise flashing in his eyes.
It was evident that he did not anticipate such an extraordinary change from the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart,’ but considering Sword Elder purposefully sought out the ’Innate Jianmu Tree Heart’ for Li Yuanba, surely he knew these changes would occur.
"The Innate Jianmu Tree Heart indeed aligns well with you!" Great Cultivator Lou said with a smile.
"I feel like my ’Innate Wood’ divine skill broke through its realm limitations!" Li Yuanba was still examining the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune, speaking sowhat uncertainly.
"Try it on !" Great Cultivator Lou showed interest.
Li Yuanba thought for a mont and nodded, attempting to mobilize the energy within the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune.
Almost instantly, a projection of the ’Innate Wood’ divine skill rune appeared in his hand, transforming into green light and shooting towards Great Cultivator Lou after a breath’s ti.
The body of Great Cultivator Lou was enveloped in green light. He sowhat lost himself and closed his eyes in ecstasy.
"Ah!" A few breaths later, he exhaled deeply.
"Yuanba, your ’Innate Wood’ divine skill actually has an effect on a Great Cultivator. Though I’m not injured, your ’Innate Wood’ divine skill made feel a comforting sensation across my body, with even so old injuries improving!" Great Cultivator Lou exclaid.
Perhaps Li Yuanba didn’t quite grasp what this ant, but Great Cultivator Lou understood, Li Yuanba’s significance had further increased.
Almost every Great Cultivator carries so hidden injuries within them.
These hidden injuries mostly co from countless battles, with so from consuming spirit pills.
Great Cultivators need to consu Spirit Pills to strengthen their power, but the usual Great Cultivator Spirit Pills are rely Interdiate Spirit Pills, filled with impurities that, with repeated consumption, leave residues within them.
These residues slowly damage the Great Cultivator’s body, and no matter the ans used to expel most of the impurities, so stubborn residues remain.
