Needless to say, the appearance of Great Elder Level Golden Core cultivators on the battlefield was the recent cause of substantial losses among the Golden Core cultivators.
Once the battle escalated to the level of a Great Elder, although it wasn’t quite as intense as a battle at the Nascent Soul Stage, the significance was more or less the sa.
A Great Elder is the foundation of a Nascent Soul cultivator; each one has the potential to advance to a Nascent Soul Ancestor.
They are the essence and foundation of various forces; losing one is an enormous loss.
"Skywalk Trading Company now has three Great Elders present on the battlefield, which is why we called upon you batch of cultivators with Great Elder strength to co here," Lu Ancestor solemnly inford.
The three Great Elders of the Skywalk Trading Company, naly the Body Refining Grand Elder, the Thunder Cultivation Great Elder, and the Sword Cultivation Great Elder, are not easy to handle. You must not be careless," Lu Ancestor said in a deep voice.
Li Yuanba’s gaze narrowed slightly, having strength comparable to the Body Refining Grand Elder while the presence of the Thunder Cultivation and Sword Cultivation Great Elders was unexpected.
Sword Cultivator is acclaid as the strongest combat profession among cultivators, with unrivaled offensive power and the ability to break all spells with a single sword—becoming the nightmare of cultivators.
Li Yuanba, being a Sword Cultivator himself, understood very well the formidable nature of the Sword Cultivation Great Elder.
Elder Jian had suppressed all the Golden Core cultivators across the entire Beishu Continent because he was a Sword Cultivator, and trained in the "Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique".
The "Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique" is not a Sword Cultivation Technique from Beishu Continent and stands a notch above all the Sect Inheritance Techniques on the Beishu Continent.
According to Li Yuanba’s judgnt, the Sword Cultivation Great Elder of Skywalk Trading Company may very well be as powerful as the forr Elder Jian.
This Sword Cultivation Great Elder of Skywalk Trading Company, although his primary Sword Cultivation Technique remains unknown, is likely similar to the "Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique," or perhaps slightly inferior, but definitely surpasses the techniques known in Beishu Continent.
As for Thunder Cultivation, Li Yuanba also has a say since Li Shiming himself had practiced Thunder Skill and understood deeply the terror of Thunder Cultivators.
Thunder Cultivator is the most unique among Magic Cultivators. Other cultivators may cast spells quickly, still allowing ti to dodge, but once a Thunder Cultivator unleashes Thunder magic, the likelihood of evasion is extrely low.
Thunder magic is incredibly fast, so fast that most cultivators cannot dodge it and must withstand it.
Another perverse aspect of Thunder magic is its paralyzing effect; in a life-or-death battle, being hit can paralyze instantly, rendering one incapable of action and virtually ensuring death.
"Yuan Ba, I know these three Great Elders are powerful, but you have the ’Step by Step Lotus.’ I hope you can eliminate any one of them. This ti, the six major sects along with Beishu Trading Company have provided three resources for advancing to the Nascent Soul. If you can eliminate one of them, you’ll receive one of these Nascent Soul advancent resources!" Lu Ancestor continued.
Seven Nascent Soul Ancestors had discussed this. They had gauged the strength of the three Great Elders from Skywalk Trading Company and didn’t have much confidence in the Great Elders of their own sect.
However, they unanimously believe that Li Yuanba is the most likely to eliminate a Great Elder from Skywalk Trading Company.
Mainly because Li Yuanba’s way of fighting is very intelligent, achieving victory with minimal cost, and with the help of "Step by Step Lotus," he can advance or retreat.
"Master Ancestor, I will do my best," Li Yuanba did not make any promises as fighting such formidable foes, the prospect of killing them was too challenging.
Actually, calling Li Shiming over would be the simplest solution; his current combat capabilities far exceed those of Li Yuanba, and together with his Heavenly Thunder Sword Intent and "Flowing Light Star teor" Flying Sword, eliminating a Great Elder wouldn’t be difficult.
It’s worth noting that the "Flowing Light Star teor" Flying Sword is almost equivalent to a Fourth-grade Flying Sword. Attacking a Great Elder with a fourth-grade sword would overco any strong defense, even a third-grade magical treasure couldn’t withstand an attack from a "Flowing Light Star teor."
Unfortunately, no matter what is said, none of those Nascent Soul Ancestors would let Li Shiming, the Alchemy Master, make a move.
After leaving Lu Ancestor’s place, the Sect Elder from here approached him and arranged accommodation for him—it was a newly built courtyard.
Li Yuanba received so data in his Identity Jade Disc, not only about the resources of the three Great Elders from Skywalk Trading Company but also about so well-known Golden Core cultivators from the opposing side.
Among these Golden Core cultivators, there were those from the Skywalk Trading Company, as well as those who had been bought over.
In the records, Li Yuan Ba also saw that there was a market here for Golden Core cultivators, established by the Beishu Trading Company.
Li Yuan Ba beca sowhat interested, this place was close to the Yongle Battlefield, perhaps so spiritual objects from other continents might appear.
The market covered a large area, and it was not just the Beishu Trading Company’s shops that were here; many other trading companies had gathered here as well.
Most of these trading companies had the backing of major sects, enabling them to co here and compete with the Beishu Trading Company.
The number of cultivators in this place was very high, it was said that currently on the Yongle Battlefield alone, the number of Golden Core cultivators from both sides had surpassed three hundred, not to ntion even more Foundation Building cultivators.
Golden Core cultivators, usually very rare in various markets, could be seen everywhere here.
Li Yuan Ba sensed that many were in the Middle Late Stage Golden Core, this market being able to attract so many Golden Core cultivators indicated that the goods were quite extraordinary.
"Hu, how have you improved your strength so quickly, I rember last year when I saw you, you were just at the Early Stage Golden Core?" just as he was moving forward, he overhead a conversation between two Golden Core cultivators.
It wasn’t that he was eavesdropping; rather, his perceptive ability was too strong. "Divine Eye" along with "Telepathy" allowed his perceptiveness to far surpass that of his peers.
Furthermore, the two Golden Core cultivators were not using any ans to conceal their communication, allowing him to hear everything clearly.
"Mr. Zhao, I wouldn’t tell anyone else, but we are sworn friends. I’ll tell you the truth, do you know about the Yongle Island over there?" Hu pointed secretly towards the direction of Yongle Island and asked in a lowered voice.
"Of course, I ca here for the rich rewards of killing enemies. I heard that killing the cultivators from the other side can be exchanged for cultivation resources, including even third-grade Spirit Pills from Master Li!" Mr. Zhao replied with a nod.
When Mr. Zhao ntioned Master Li’s third-grade Spirit Pills, his eyes lit up.
"Master Li’s third-grade Spirit Pills are indeed excellent, but extrely hard to obtain. However, if you defect to the other side and sign a contract, you can imdiately get the corresponding resources. Moreover, once you gain military rits, you can exchange them for even more resources; the resources over there are far more than here!" Hu said with a tempting voice.
"Hu, if you defect over there, won’t you be making enemies with the several major sects?" Mr. Zhao asked hesitantly.
He understood now why Hu had been able to advance to the Middle Stage Golden Core; his greed was stirred, yet he also felt so fear.
The six major sects had ruled the Beishu Continent for countless years, and they had long established a fear in the hearts of all cultivators.
"Are you silly? Can’t you play both sides?" Hu chuckled.
Afterward, Li Yuan Ba could no longer hear anything further, likely because the two Golden Core cultivators had applied a thod to block out their voices.
Li Yuan Ba shook his head, the situation here seed rather chaotic, what was the Skywalk Trading Company planning?
Honestly, thinking of using the hands of these Golden Core cultivators to attack the six major sects was way too optimistic.
These Golden Core cultivators were mostly Loose Cultivators or cultivators from small or dium sects; they lacked not only the cultivation realm but also the primary Cultivation Techniques and Secret Techniques, and their magical treasures were also significantly inferior.
If the Skywalk Trading Company intended to bridge these gaps among the Golden Core cultivators, it was not sothing that could be achieved in a short ti.
Once one reached the Golden Core Stage, wanting to change primary Cultivation Techniques ca with too great a cost, almost tantamount to starting over.
Unless one crafted it themselves, changing magical treasures required ti to bring out their power as well, not within just a few years.
Li Yuan Ba sensed there must be so reason he was unaware of, and when an appropriate occasion arose, he might use "Telepathy" to target so cultivators from the Skywalk Trading Company for investigation.
