Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 746: Chapter 419 Inventory_2

Unexpectedly, Li Yuanba’s judgment elevated his own combat power to a higher level.

But all the Nascent Soul Ancestors were intelligent people; they would not foolishly ask Li Yuanba what kind of trump cards he had.

They each thought about how to deal with the remaining two Great Elders from Yongle Island.

”Ancestor, I need to rest first,” Li Yuanba said, holding up Elder Shi Ming’s corpse and bowing to Ancestor Lu.

Ancestor Lu sensed the instability in his aura and knew he was injured.

”You go and heal properly; you’ve done well enough!” Ancestor Lu said, waving his hand.

Though he did not know the details of Li Yuanba’s battle, Ancestor Lu could guess the risks involved.

For a cultivator like Li Yuanba, who mastered the ’Step by Step Lotus’ Divine Foot Skill to be injured, the battle was not a simple one.

Since Nascent Soul Ancestors could not interfere with the Yongle Battlefield, they all monitored each other. None could fully immerse their divine thoughts into the battlefield, so the details of the events happening there were unknown to them.

They could only speculate on some situations based on the fluctuations of aura.

Li Yuanba put away Elder Shi Ming’s corpse and turned to fly towards the temporary courtyard.

Elder Shi Ming’s body, after verification, would not be taken away.

The body of a powerful being, especially that of a strong enemy, was an extremely precious resource.

After activating the courtyard’s formation, he took out his Lifebound Flying Sword treasure.

”What a pity,” he mused, holding the Lifebound Flying Sword treasure, its quality exceptionally good, reaching the peak level of third-grade, and considered a supreme item among high-grade magical treasures.

However, because it belonged to Elder Shi Ming, the spirit imprint had mostly dissipated due to its master’s death, leaving only some remnants within the Lifebound Flying Sword.

These residual spirit imprints were extremely difficult to remove, at least impossible for a Golden Core cultivator.

Wielding such a Lifebound Flying Sword treasure, one could only unleash half of its power at best.

He set aside the Lifebound Flying Sword treasure and took out Elder Shi Ming’s Space Ring.

It was a Mustard Seed Ring, a third-grade magical treasure level Space Ring with a huge space inside measuring ten thousand meters in length, width, and height, similar to the Mustard Seed Ring that the main body Li Shiming had obtained.

It also had divisions for time-stopped space, life space, and regular space; the Mustard Seed Ring alone was an extremely precious treasure.

That is, had Elder Shi Ming not concealed it, finding the Mustard Seed Ring on the corpse would have been difficult for Li Yuanba, given the ring’s properties.

Li Yuanba’s divine thought entered the Mustard Seed Ring, and he was stunned by the number of Spiritual Objects inside.

In the life space alone, there were thirty third-grade spirit fruit trees and ten third-grade spirit tea trees; just these spirit fruit trees and spirit tea trees were enough for a Golden Core cultivator’s hospitality and personal use.

The spirit soil used for planting was close to fourth-grade quality.

He then turned his attention to the time-stopped space, where there were hundreds of Spiritual Medicines.

Judging by the aura of the Spiritual Medicines, they were all third-grade Spiritual Medicine.

Yet, judging by the level of Li Shiming as an Alchemy Master, he still could not recognize these third-grade Spiritual Medicines.

Of course, this did not mean that Li Shiming would be unable to make use of these third-grade Spiritual Medicines. As long as the properties of these medicines were computationally analyzed, they could utilize the computational power of the lifebound treasure IBM z15 to reformulate the Elixir Recipes.

However, when Li Yuanba’s divine thought reached the ordinary space, he found that his worries were unfounded, as he discovered numerous Elixir Recipes within the Jade Scrolls.

Among these Elixir Recipes, all the third-grade Spiritual Medicines in the time-stopped space were recorded.

Perhaps some of the lower-grade spiritual medicines in these elixir recipes are not found on the Beishu Continent, but with these recipes, Li Shiming could more easily research and create recipes that match the spiritual medicines from the Beishu Continent.

Li Yuanba searched the Jade Scrolls and did not find Elder Shi Ming’s main cultivation technique.

It is understandable, after all, even Li Yuanba himself didn’t possess the ”Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique” in the form of a Jade Scroll; such inheritances are passed down through the master-disciple tradition.

The downside of this method is that if an accident happens to a disciple, the lineage could be severed; however, the benefit is that the inheritance will not leak out.

He did find quite a few other cultivation techniques, but judging by the quality of the techniques, they appeared to be seized from relatively weaker forces, a level below Elder Shi Ming’s main cultivation technique, roughly on par with the inherited techniques of the six major sects.

He casually flipped through them, not paying much attention, as with access to a better inheritance, he would not hold these in high regard.

”What a stroke of luck!” he exclaimed excitedly all of a sudden.

When he opened a Jade Box, he discovered a spirit pill inside.

This was a fourth-grade ’Supreme Sensing Pill,’ one of the various auxiliary fourth-grade spirit pills that helped Golden Core cultivators sense the nascent soul and greatly promoted the transition from Golden Core to Nascent Soul.

The value of this ’Supreme Sensing Pill’ alone was so great that Li Yuanba wouldn’t trade it for four fourth-grade magical treasures.

This ’Supreme Sensing Pill’ was probably prepared by Elder Shi Ming for his own use; it ended up benefiting Li Yuanba instead.

Li Yuanba was extremely delighted; he continued to check the other Spiritual Objects within the Mustard Seed Ring.

The various third-grade spiritual items did not pique his interest much; while valuable to other cultivators, they were not considered significant to Li Yuanba, who had Li Shiming as a backing.

It was only when he reached the section with the artifact refining materials and found four-grade metal sealed by multiple talismans that his smile returned.

Indeed, cultivators from other continents were wealthy, especially such high-ranking elders, who were confident in advancing to Nascent Soul Ancestors, their possession of fourth-grade materials was indicative of this.

Theoretically, as a Golden Core cultivator, one would not store fourth-grade materials in space-themed items; even if they had fourth-grade materials, they could be kept in a much safer haven like a cave dwelling.

But Elder Shi Ming was so confident in his own strength that he believed himself to be invincible, thinking no Golden Core cultivator could defeat him, let alone kill him.

This kind of confidence couldn’t be blamed, as it was the state of mind needed by Sword Cultivators to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage.

However, in reality, Elder Shi Ming had effectively handed these fourth-grade materials right into the hands of Li Yuanba, thus boosting Li Yuanba’s future potential.

The only regret was that the spirit iron was of a fourth-grade ice attribute, which didn’t match Li Yuanba’s affinity but could be used by Li Shiming, his original self.

After some thought, Li Yuanba took out fifteen Cultivation Technique Jade Scrolls; these scrolls could enrich the collection of the Senluo Sect’s techniques.

Having decided to leave the Senluo Sect after becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator, compared to the contributions of the Shushan Sect’s Li Shiming to his sect, Li Yuanba’s contributions to the Senluo Sect were not as significant.

On the other hand, the care that he had received from the Senluo Sect was substantial; he needed to repay the sect, which would give him peace of mind.

These fifteen techniques had already been recorded in the data repository of Li Shiming’s essential magical treasure, the IBMz15.

Inside the Mustard Seed Ring were also three bottles containing twenty-seven third-grade mid-stage spirit pills for the late Golden Core stage; they were all auxiliary cultivation spirit pills. He took them out, planning to trade with other cultivators when necessary.

In the Beishu Continent, these third-grade mid-stage spirit pills for the late Golden Core stage were extremely rare and valuable. Most of the late-stage Golden Core cultivators were concentrated in the six major sects and various powerful forces. Yet, even so, they could not ensure a regular supply of these third-grade spirit pills for their cultivation.

Even if Li Yuanba reached the latter stages of the Golden Core, he would not consider these mid-stage third-grade spirit pills significant since he had better high-grade third-grade spirit pills to choose from.

Having heard from Elder Wei Xi, there will be an auction organized later where Spiritual Objects from other continents will be sold. He hoped to exchange these third-grade spirit pills for desired Spiritual Objects then.

Such third-grade mid-level spirit medicines for the late Golden Core stage were prime commodities, highly sought after, and the most readily accepted for trading.

Li Yuanba imprinted his spirit onto the Mustard Seed Ring, wore it on his finger, and with a slight motion of his mind, the ring disappeared from view.
