Cultivation is just so scientific!
Chapter 1774 - 933: The Scheme (Part 2)
Although he didn’t earn the title of the Great Cultivator fleeing for his life like Master Cui Cheng, he was also part of the background for Li Yuanba’s rise to fame.
Whether for the interests of the Beidou Sect or for himself, he wanted Li Yuanba dead.
But he was truly terrified by Li Yuanba’s combat power, and the terrifying power of Li Yuanba was unforgettable to him.
"Since you all were able to come here, you must have received approval from your respective sects. I just don’t believe that with the combined power of our five families, we can’t kill one Li Yuanba!" Great Cultivator Cui Cheng said loudly, his eyes flashing with determination.
He regretted that the matter of killing Li Yuanba could not involve the avatars of the powerful ones and must be restricted to fights among cultivators of the same level.
These were the rules among the superpowers, and no one dared to break them.
So, to deal with Li Yuanba, the cooperation of the five families present was necessary to ensure Li Yuanba had no chance.
Previous attempts against Li Yuanba had failed, which gave them valuable experience for their upcoming actions.
"The Guiyuan Sect will fully cooperate; we just want Li Yuanba dead!" The representative from Guiyuan Sect spoke. They were not a Peak Great Cultivator, as presently, they had no Peak Great Cultivator left.
The enmity between Guiyuan Sect and Li Yuanba had never been resolved, especially after a powerful figure from Guiyuan Sect lost face to Li Yuanba.
This time, they were authorized to mobilize all of Guiyuan Sect’s resources to cooperate with the other families to slay Li Yuanba.
"Da Leiyin Temple will also fully cooperate!" Great Venerable Ming Hai continued.
"Feiyu Sect will fully cooperate!" Great Cultivator Le followed.
Some words need not be said much. The individuals who came here did so to discuss cooperation. As for dealing with Li Yuanba, each respective sect had already made its decisions even before coming.
In just a few decades, Li Yuanba had risen from a freshly initiated Great Cultivator to a Peak Great Cultivator.
His combat power threatened the interests of the superpowers across the Central State Continent. Given Li Yuanba’s age, even if he didn’t ascend to greater power, he could suppress the Peak Great Cultivators of the superpowers for thousands of years.
No superpower could accept this. The interests involved were simply too significant for the superpowers to ignore.
If during each contest for interests through combat power, they were suppressed by the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion would only grow stronger.
The Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion had always been extremely tough in its actions. If its strength increased any more, the combined forces of the superpowers might not be able to suppress it.
"Alright, finding an opportunity to deal with Li Yuanba is easy. He is currently carrying out tasks at various locations. Setting up a trap could capture him.
But to kill him, more Great Cultivators need to be involved. Besides me, the Infinite Sect will also dispatch five Great Cultivators!" Master Cui Cheng said, moving the meeting process forward after seeing the commitment from other Great Cultivators, and presented the Infinite Sect’s decision.
"The Beidou Sect will also dispatch, besides me, five Great Cultivators, and a top-tier Grade Four Formation!" said Great Cultivator Yu Chao from Beidou Sect.
Then, both Feiyu Sect and Da Leiyin Temple made their statements, each willing to send a Peak Great Cultivator, along with five cultivators whose strength was second only to a Peak Great Cultivator’s.
This showed the greatest sincerity that the superpowers could offer. One could say that to deal with Li Yuanba; they dispatched an optimal lineup.
The gaze of the four Great Cultivators turned to Guiyuan Sect, aware that Guiyuan Sect had no Peak Great Cultivator, eager to see what kind of force Guiyuan Sect would prepare to deploy.
"Everyone, I think the force you mentioned is insufficient!" The words from the Great Cultivator of Guiyuan Sect caught the other four Great Cultivators off guard.
"This still isn’t enough? Even if Li Yuanba had three heads and six arms, he couldn’t handle so many Great Cultivators at once. With the Beidou Sect’s formation in cooperation, it’s not just one Li Yuanba that would be slain, but even a few more Li Yuanbas," Master Cui Cheng shook his head and said.
"To be frank, if you want to deal with Li Yuanba, you must resort to special means. I believe each family has its special artifacts!" The Great Cultivator from Guiyuan Sect directed his gaze at the four Great Cultivators and spoke solemnly.
"How can that be? What reason do we have to deploy artifacts of that caliber from our sects?" Master Cui Cheng understood his idea and shook his head in rebuttal.
The other three also shook their heads broadly. They knew that if they brought along the special artifacts mentioned by Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator, their chances against Li Xiongba would significantly increase.
But it’s no easy feat to bring such special artifacts out of a sect. Artifacts capable of dealing with Peak Great Cultivators are controlled by the mighty ones.
Unless there is enough justification, it’s nearly impossible to persuade the sect to release them.
"Hasn’t Li Yuanba’s rise from initial Great Cultivator to Peak Great Cultivator in under sixty years been reason enough?" The Great Cultivator from Guiyuan Sect asked lightly.
Instantly, the room fell silent, and the Great Cultivators’ eyes began to flicker.
Some cultivators didn’t overlook Li Yuanba’s rapid cultivation speed, but such swift progress in cultivation always had some lucky individuals in the Cultivation World, who through great fortune, achieved rapid ascension.
According to intelligence from their respective sects, Li Yuanba hadn’t left the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion but had been in seclusion within. In less than sixty years, he ascended from initial Great Cultivator to Peak Great Cultivator Realm.
Even if Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator hadn’t brought it up, the reasons for confronting Li Yuanba this time also included probing into his secrets. If anything, delving into these secrets was mostly for their benefit.
The Great Cultivators present hadn’t brought it up until urged by Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator, recognizing that they needed to bring this matter to their respective sects to secure maximum support.
"What does Guiyuan Sect have in mind?" Master Cui Cheng asked Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator.
"Guiyuan Sect will dispatch seven Great Cultivators and will also bring the ’Heart Inquiry Rope’ to help everyone uncover Li Yuanba’s secrets!" Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator responded with a smile.
Frankly, Guiyuan Sect dispatching one extra Great Cultivator—two Great Cultivators couldn’t genuinely match the combat power of one Peak Great Cultivator.
But the ’Heart Inquiry Rope’, this curious item, stopped the other four Great Cultivators from necessitating more from Guiyuan Sect.
With the ’Heart Inquiry Rope’, should Li Yuanba be captured alive, they could uncover the secret behind his rapid power boost from him.
The four Great Cultivators exchanged glances, retrieving their communication tools to start contacting their respective sects.
Guiyuan Sect’s Great Cultivator smiled faintly; without a little pressure, these fellows wouldn’t commit fully.
He knew very well that there was only one opportunity to deal with Li Yuanba. Once Li Yuanba was prepared, it wouldn’t be them dealing with Li Yuanba but Li Yuanba relentlessly troubling them.
With Li Yuanba’s combat power, in a one-on-one scenario, no Great Cultivator present from the superpowers would be Li Yuanba’s match.
Under Li Yuanba’s powerful assault, even methods to ensure survival could hardly be triggered.
After some time, the four Great Cultivators ceased their actions, smiling as they looked at the Great Cultivator from Guiyuan Sect.
"Infinite Sect agrees to use the ’Infinite Fire Peak’!" Master Cui Cheng first stated.
"Beidou Sect will bring the ’Beidou Formation Map’ for this operation!" Great Cultivator Yu Chao continued.
"When dealing with Li Yuanba, I will carry the ’Thunder Sound Bell’!" Great Venerable Ming Hai said with hands clasped in meditation.
"Feiyu Sect will use the ’Eye of the Storm’!" Great Cultivator Le concluded.
The five Great Cultivators present all showed shocked expressions on their faces. No matter the outcome, this operation against Li Yuanba would be recorded in history.
Five treasures and curiosities deployed in a single battle, something unheard of even in the history of the Immortal World.
"Even if Li Yuanba falls, he will be recorded in the annals. He will die an honorable death." Master Cui Cheng sighed.
