Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1467 - 780: The War Situation
Previously on Cultivation is just so scientific!...
"Pleased to meet you!" With a composed expression, Master Wang He regarded Li Yuanba and declared.
The moment his voice rang out, Great Cultivator Lou and Grandmaster Wu shifted nearer to Li Yuanba. Any sudden action from him would prompt these two Sword Cultivators to launch an instant counter.
This position was unmistakable. Earlier, Master Qiao from the Yuqing Sect had violated the guidelines and forfeited his existence as a result. Though that incident had been settled, should Master Wang He cross the line, the consequences would prove far graver.
Master Wang He essentially embodied half the Yuqing Sect's intentions. For all but the most crucial decisions needing a supreme authority's verdict, he held supreme command over the sect's other operations.
In this scenario, Master Wang He refrained from striking, and it was inconceivable that he would anyway.
He cast a profound glance at Li Yuanba prior to drawing back his eyes.
Li Yuanba scanned the Yuqing Sect's group before turning his attention to the White Emperor Sect's lineup, whose fighting prowess ranked merely as middling.
Ultimately, as the White Emperor Sect pulled back, each of the two Great Cultivators escorted two key disciples, indicating their casualties in Hell Cave Heaven fell short of the dire predictions.
The White Emperor Sect could endure the demise of a hundred Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners without crumbling.
Yet the core cultivators, still reeling from prior devastating blows, hadn't fully replenished their numbers, leaving the White Emperor Sect unable to spare any more of them.
Furthermore, the constraints imposed on White Emperor Sect cultivators within Hell Cave Heaven stemmed from their ingrained battle methods.
White Emperor Sect members favored mountain peak-style magical treasures above all, yet in Hell Cave Heaven, unleashing such artifacts led to heavy contamination.
This taint impacted the treasures themselves. Excessive deployment might trap them outside the body, slashing their might and demanding extended periods for gradual purification.
Hence, the White Emperor Sect endured massive setbacks in Hell Cave Heaven. Among all forces present, barred from wielding magical treasures, they bore the heaviest burden.
Li Yuanba paid little heed to the White Emperor Sect, since their battle effectiveness in Hell Cave Heaven posed no real danger to him.
Solely the Yuqing Sect demanded his caution, dispatching not just Master Wang He but also a second Great Cultivator of moderate capability.
This level of might sufficed to overpower Li Yuanba and even imperil his survival outright.
Master Wang He pulled back his overwhelming presence, which he'd unleashed at first to cow the assembled Great Cultivators.
Before this, Master Qiao and his fellow Great Cultivator had faltered badly, shaming the Yuqing Sect and inviting scorn from the other Great Cultivators.
By exerting his crushing dominance, he forced them to reevaluate the Yuqing Sect's formidable prowess.
At present, he shared courteous nods and chatter with the Great Cultivators, as a separate Thunder Cultivator guided the Yuqing Sect members into the secondary outpost.
The Great Cultivators harbored no desire to clash with Master Wang He, whose battling might overwhelmed any opposition they could muster.
Provided he adhered to the protocols henceforth, they stood ready to welcome him into their circle.
Still, amid these interactions, neither Master Wang He nor the Great Cultivators brought up Li Yuanba's 'Innate Wood' divine skill.
Li Yuanba remained positioned beside the duo of Sword Cultivators, an arrangement they'd insisted upon, confident their combined efforts could fend off any assault from Master Wang He.
In this way, as the Great Cultivators engaged in talk, Li Yuanba gained the chance to observe quietly nearby.
"Mr. Lou, word has it that Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion installed a 'Space Acceptance Array' in this place. I trust the Yuqing Sect might claim six activation rights!" Master Wang He addressed Great Cultivator Lou once his talks with the others concluded.
"I'm afraid Mr. Wang hasn't been informed, yet a 'Space Acceptance Array' does exist here—though its capacity for users is fixed and fully occupied, barring additional allocations!" Great Cultivator Lou responded with a grin.
From every angle, he opposed granting the Yuqing Sect access to the 'Space Acceptance Array'.
"That's a simple fix. I'll discuss it peacefully with them, and they're bound to yield a portion. Beyond our sect, teams from outside the Central State Continent require a handful too, to safeguard both core cultivators and the Great Cultivators' own well-being!" Master Wang He countered, his gaze piercing toward Great Cultivator Lou as he stressed his words.
No sooner had Master Wang He voiced this than he secured backing from Great Cultivators of off-Central State Continent major factions.
Should they secure the ability to activate the 'Space Acceptance Array', even confronting disasters akin to those that struck the White Emperor Sect and Yuqing Sect in Hell Cave Heaven, at minimum the core cultivators and Great Cultivators would remain protected.
This option outshone the 'Innate Wood' divine skill in security, enabling an immediate escape from Hell Cave Heaven's perils back to the secure grounds of Hell Island.
"I back Mr. Wang's idea. Surrendering some slots means little to you, yet for us, it guarantees our protection!" declared one of the Great Cultivators.
