Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1521 - 807: Sect Annihilation

Master Qiao from the White Emperor Sect, joined by fellow Great Cultivators, gaped in shock at the 'Thundercloud Technique' forming above them in the heavens.

Deep despair surged through the Great Cultivators' hearts. They never imagined the heavy toll they'd endured to endure those prior twenty strikes from the 'Thundercloud Technique' would end up wasted.

The Primeval Sect's grand formation, along with their exhausted condition, simply couldn't handle yet another barrage of twenty 'Thundercloud Technique' assaults.

However, to their horror, Li Shiming wasn't summoning just twenty 'Thundercloud Techniques'—he was calling forth a whopping forty in one go.

They understood that even a lone 'Thundercloud Technique' among them held the power to wipe out any Great Cultivator there; such devastating force shouldn't exist on the Dongqi Continent. Not even on the Central State Continent would spells from ordinary Peak Great Cultivators match this might.

The White Emperor Sect Great Cultivator's gaze wavered, and he discreetly pulled out a Life-Saving Talisman before triggering it.

His form shifted into a streak of golden light, hurtling toward the area beyond the Primeval Sect's mountain entrance.

He had no desire to remain any longer. What happened to the Primeval Sect no longer concerned him at all.

Aware that he couldn't survive Li Shiming's onslaught, lingering there would just lead to his doom alongside the Primeval Sect.

Crafted by the formidable White Emperor Sect, this Life-Saving Talisman was an Earth Escape Talisman infused with potent earth rules, enabling a dive into the soil where pursuit became nearly impossible.

Yet the White Emperor Sect Great Cultivator found himself inside the Primeval Sect's mountain gate, where the ground was fortified by defensive arrays that blocked Earth Escape usage, forcing him to flee through the sect's main entrance.

This abrupt flight enraged the Primeval Sect's Great Cultivators; they utterly loathed such betrayal and abandonment.

Still, they were powerless to act—they couldn't force the White Emperor Sect Great Cultivator to stand and die with the Primeval Sect.

Moreover, they lacked the moment to fret over the fleeing White Emperor Sect Cultivator, for the 'Thundercloud Technique' barrages were starting, bringing an even deadlier threat upon them.

Thanks to the permissions the Primeval Sect had extended within their grand formation to the White Emperor Sect Cultivator, departing the array offered him no obstacles.

Right as his golden Earth Escape radiance crossed the Primeval Sect's gate and began sinking into the earth, a blade of sword light flashed nearby, and fueled by 'Chaos Sword Intent,' the 'Traceless Illusion Sword' cleaved straight into the Earth Escape light.

Li Shiming had foreseen that Great Cultivators inside the Primeval Sect might try to bolt and had preemptively unleashed the 'Traceless Illusion Sword'.

The instant the White Emperor Sect Cultivator reached for his Life-Saving Talisman, Li Shiming's 'Divine Eye' caught sight of it, letting him position himself beyond the grand formation to intercept the White Emperor Sect Cultivator.

Fate dealt the White Emperor Sect Cultivator a cruel hand, as those who'd actually seen the 'Traceless Illusion Sword' up close were usually dead, with scarcely anyone recognizing it as his Lifebound Flying Sword.

This held even more weight since he consistently showed himself as a Thunder Cultivator, leading every Great Cultivator to miss that he was also a Sword Cultivator.

Gaining mastery over rules in dual paths was beyond comprehension for the average Great Cultivator.

In the cultivation realm, Thunder Cultivation and Sword Cultivation rank as the mightiest attacking paths, and excelling in either one proves tough enough—mastering both seems outright impossible.

The 'Traceless Illusion Sword' collided with the Earth Escape radiance. Despite the bolstering Earth rules from the talisman, a single cut from the 'Chaos Sword Intent' yanked the White Emperor Sect Cultivator free from his Earth Escape form.

While shattering the Earth Escape barrier drained some of the 'Chaos Sword Intent,' what lingered pierced into the White Emperor Sect Cultivator's frame, rampaging wildly within.

Li Shiming held back from a follow-up strike; the 'Traceless Illusion Sword' simply disappeared following that one blow.

The White Emperor Sect Cultivator's plight didn't call for another attack. He hadn't dropped yet, but his fleshly body and Nascent Soul faced relentless corrosion from the 'Chaos Sword Intent'—his end was merely delayed.

The storied Primeval Sect, among Dongqi Continent's four premier sects with a legacy of ten millennia, now teetered on the brink of total ruin.

Inside the Primeval Sect, the forty 'Thundercloud Technique' strikes caused the grand formation to shatter right from the outset.

Truth be told, Li Shiming's second wave of assaults had already inflicted heavy harm on the Primeval Sect's array, and this third salvo of 'Thundercloud Techniques' proved overwhelmingly fierce, rendering the formation unable to hold.

"Escape, whoever can, escape!" Master Qiao bellowed, his eyes injected with blood.

He refused to stop fighting back, aiming to carve out even a faint chance of survival for his fellow Great Cultivators.

However, it was obvious his efforts offered little promise; Li Shiming showed zero mercy toward any Great Cultivator.

By now, fleeing proved far too late for the Great Cultivators; beneath the onslaught of forty 'Thundercloud Techniques,' getting away was out of the question.

Maybe earlier, if they'd bolted alongside the White Emperor Sect Cultivator, Li Shiming couldn't have blocked them all, but that window had closed.

As the 'Thundercloud Techniques' erupted in full fury, every cultivator—Great Cultivators most of all—became sitting ducks for the lightning ravaging the zone.

Master Qiao beheld a nearby Great Cultivator get zapped by thunderbolts. In a flash, his mortal body's vitality snuffed out, and the Nascent Soul inside got utterly pulverized by the electric fury.
