Chapter 105 – 99: Captured (Extra for rewards from Liú méng chén mèng)

Li Shiming was organizing the items sent by Qiu Tan, sending a large pile of mortal metals into the underground space.

Array materials were sorted within the cave dwelling, and as for the three types of Spiritual Medicines, he stored them in his storage bag.

From today, he could start practicing the actual operations of the Array.

After many days, constantly communicating with Yin Shilan and consolidating the Array inheritance through IBMz15, his theoretical level had reached a very high level of proficiency.

Otherwise, Yin Shilan wouldn’t often consult him with some questions. In terms of theory, his level was not much weaker than Yin Shilan’s; in fact, in calculations, he far surpassed her.

With the three Spiritual Medicines and his realm elevated to the Qi Refining Fourth Level,

he could feel the Blood Covenant between him and the copper corpse strengthening significantly, and the resistance from the copper corpse had vanished, recognizing him completely as its master.

Regrettably, this copper corpse was not cultivated from scratch by him. According to the records in “Xuanming Corpse Refining Chapter,” if one could cultivate a corpse from scratch into a Life-bound Corpse Refinement, the realm difference between the corpse and the master could span an entire major realm.

But the conditions for Life-bound Corpse Refinement are extremely stringent; even within the Xuanming Sect, there are few cultivators who possess a Life-bound Corpse Refinement.

Mainly because Life-bound Corpse Refinement requires a certain level of strength. Before turning into a refined corpse, it must possess a physical and spiritual strength surpassing the cultivator’s own, and the internal Spiritual Power Pattern standard must also exceed theirs.

This means the original strength of the corpse materials while alive needs to be greater than that of the cultivator, and the refinement must begin immediately after killing the enemy, as the corpses lose some of their energy with every passing minute.

The failure rate of Life-bound Corpse Refinement process is higher than that of ordinary corpse refining, mainly because it’s difficult for the corpses to withstand the initial process of Life-bound Corpse Refinement.

As for the basic materials for making Life-bound Corpse Refinement, Li Shiming had obtained a complete set in his spoils of war. Find exclusive stories on Novgo

According to “Xuanming Corpse Refining Chapter,” nearly every cultivator practicing the “Xuanming Corpse Refining Chapter” hopes to acquire a Life-bound refined corpse.

Li Shiming shook his head, casting aside this illusion; to have acquired this copper corpse was already an incredible stroke of luck.

Not to mention that ordinary corpse refining materials require single spirit root and dual spirit roots corpses, whereas the corpse materials for Life-bound Corpse Refinement are invariably from single spirit root holders.

And a fully-grown single spirit root cultivator is typically one of the top talents in any sect, killing such a genius and then having enough time leisurely set up for corpse refining is undeniably a many times more challenging compared to ordinary corpse refining.

Li Shiming exited his cave dwelling and went to where the spirit bamboo grew, the second stalk of Spirit Bamboo had grown out, soon he could start making talisman papers.

The talisman papers he made, of course, wouldn’t be sold; selling talisman papers was less economical than selling talismans.

In the future, given the opportunity to acquire some more potent spells, and after learning them, he could make them into talismans, providing him another way to earn Spirit Stones.

Baili Jin Yan, still a distance away from Eagle Beak Island, tucked away his Flying Boat, concealing his aura as he flew close to the sea surface towards Eagle Beak Island.

While normally, only Foundation Establishment Cultivators can freely fly, some Qi Refining cultivators with strong Spirit and who have learned the driving object formula can also achieve short-distance flying.

The Secret Technique of Baili Jin Yan was even more terrifying; during his approach to Eagle Beak Island, not a trace of his aura could be captured by the defense Array.

Baili Jin Yan arrived next to Eagle Beak Island; only a defense Array separated him from the land.

He took out a talisman with a look of regret. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford to use an Array Breaking Talisman, but deploying it on a defense array of this level seemed somewhat wasteful.

Moreover, he had brought only this one Array Breaking Talisman on this trip; once used, he would need to return to his sect to replenish it.

In fact, he could easily break through the defense array in front of him with a single strike.

But this location was too close to the Nine Peaks, breaking the defense array here would trigger the Sky Sea Sect’s response.

Furthermore, Baili Jin Yan was still unclear about the exact nature of the relationship between Li Shiming and Yin Shilan. If their relationship was very close, then Sky Sea Sect’s protection over Eagle Beak Island would be more vigilant.

Wasting an Array Breaking Talisman could avoid the trouble of being discovered by Sky Sea Sect. More importantly, it would prevent Yin Shilan from knowing that the matter concerning Li Shiming was related to him.

The Array Breaking Talisman turned into a beam of red light, landing on the defense Array.

Strangely, the defense array showed no reaction, allowing the Array Breaking Talisman to seep into it, forming a red hole large enough for a person to pass through.

Baili Jin Yan gave a faint smile, and in a flash of his figure, he passed through the red hole and entered Eagle Beak Island, which was protected by the defense Array.

The small Eagle Beak Island was completely visible at a glance, taking in everything at once; he saw Li Shiming standing by the spirit bamboo.

Li Shiming had also sensed the warning from IBMz15 at that moment, with no hesitation, he instantly activated the Fiery Flame Sword.

Yet before the Fiery Flame Sword could travel a meter from his side, Baili Jin Yan appeared beside him with inconceivable speed.

Although Li Shiming had the aid of IBMz15 and could see Baili Jin Yan’s movements, his own nervous response failed to catch up with his thoughts and sight.

Baili Jin Yan placed a hand on him, a terrifying force of Spiritual Energy surged into his body, suppressing his Spiritual Energy Vortex.

“Novice Body Refinement, just broken through to Qi Refining Fourth Level, how could you possibly have achieved this!” Baili Jin Yan immediately sensed Li Shiming’s condition and exclaimed angrily.
