Chapter 63:

Chapter 63: Li Su, hes deceased, the sect leaders voice resounded within the lethal formation. After releasing his grip, Li Su scanned the formation using his divine senses. He repeated this process multiple times, maintaining a vigilant stance to ensure the demonic cultivator was unquestionably eliminated, leaving no room for escape. Even the possibility of the opponent surviving as a lingering soul was unacceptable. Had they scanned earlier, there would still have been a threat because this individual possessed an exceptionally potent spiritual soul. It would have been a dire situation if they followed his divine sense and took control of him. This persons spiritual soul surpassed Li Su and the sect leader in power. At the mid-Gold Core stage, the Purple Lightning Spouting Cloud Beast wielded a Thunder Pill capable of confronting a demonic cultivators spiritual soul. However, this didnt imply that the spiritual soul of this particular cultivator was at the mid-Gold Core level. His spiritual soul lacked the protection of a physical body, and he no longer possessed a Nascent Soul, rendering him highly vulnerable and unnaturally fearful of thunder and lightning. Thunder and lightning attacks could amplify their power against unprotected spiritual souls several times, making a single strike sufficient to obliterate his spiritual soul. If his spiritual soul had infiltrated the sect leaders mind via their divine sense, it would have resulted in a fierce battle. Even if the sect leader emerged victorious, his spiritual soul would have incurred significant damage. Following the Thunder Pills assault on his spiritual soul, even if remnants remained, he would no longer pose a threat to the sect leader and Li Su. Thus, they continued their search confidently, confirming that this individual was indeed deceased, with his body and soul completely extinguished. In this battle, Li Su emerged triumphant. He reappeared within the Great Yang Sword Formation, joined by the sect leader. Something has been ejected, he noted, observing items scattered on the ground. These appeared to be the contents of the demonic cultivators shattered storage bag. Most of the treasures from the battle three hundred years ago had already been depleted, so there wasnt much value left. Among the items were refining materials, a few secret manuals of demonic cultivation, an identity token, and several sets of clothing, but their supplies were now gone. Li Su gathered these items, leaving the Great Yang Sword Formation almost empty. He reached out, and the array of flags soared towards him. He prepared to dismantle the formation. Li Sus most significant gain from this encounter was undoubtedly the formation itself. Despite some damage, this set of formation tools remained largely intact and potent enough to confront Nascent Soul stage cultivators. Li Su could relocate and deploy it if necessary. The existing formation had been hastily set up by a Golden Core stage formation master and had already shown remarkable endurance. This formation master, approaching nearly nine hundred years of age, possessed impressive expertise in formations. Otherwise, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator wouldnt have sought cooperation with him. Lets depart, Master, Li Su suggested. Very well. After a lengthy endeavor, they re-emerged on the surface, and night had already fallen. Boarding a flying vessel, they began returning to their sect headquarters. During the journey, Li Su handed a piece of paper to the sect leader and asked, Master, could you acquire these herbs for me? The sect leader examined the paper, which listed the names and included images of various herbs, as herbs could have different names in different regions. These are Wuhua Xuanzhi, Yehua Grass, Purple Heart Bamboo Core raw materials for crafting the Nurture Infant Pill. Why do you need these? the sect leader inquired. She must have noticed something. It made sense, considering she was on the verge of breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, likely researching alchemical formulas for the breakthrough. The Nurture Infant Pill was known for aiding this process in the Flying Immortal Sect.
