Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1549: Chapter 821: Preparation

”Mr. Liu, I apologize!” Li Shiming saw Master Liu Ziyun and noticed him looking at the robe he was wearing, prompting Li to shake his head with a smile.

With a wave of his hand, the broken and useless robe was replaced with another top-level fourth-grade robe.

”It seems Mr. Li has been through a great battle!” Master Liu Ziyun replied with a smile.

”Thanks to Mr. Liu’s intelligence, I was able to intercept the invading enemy!” Li Shiming expressed his gratitude.

If not for Master Liu Ziyun’s intelligence, even with the support of drone satellite systems, he wouldn’t have been able to monitor a large amount of information continuously.

Perhaps until the two peak Great Cultivators appeared near the specially marked area by Li Shiming, he would have remained unaware, and by then, the battlefield might have been in an important region of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

”With Mr. Li’s strength, even without my intelligence, you would still defeat the enemy!” Master Liu Ziyun, hearing Li Shiming’s implication, immediately inferred the outcome and said with a smile.

However, judging by his assessment, the battle Li Shiming fought was extremely fierce, otherwise, his top-level fourth-grade robe wouldn’t have been so thoroughly ruined.

At this moment, as he observed the battle scars, Master Liu Ziyun noticed five late-stage Golden Corpses standing far away.

Given his strength, coupled with the fact that the five late-stage Golden Corpses no longer emitted any corpse core aura, they appeared just like five Great Cultivators.

He also saw two late-stage Golden Corpses holding two Great Cultivators by their hands. Due to the distance, he couldn’t clearly see who these captured Great Cultivators were, but he could recognize the distinctive earthy yellow robe of the White Emperor Sect.

”Why do I not recognize these five Great Cultivators? And one of those captured seems to be a Cultivator from the White Emperor Sect?” Master Liu Ziyun asked curiously.

”Those are my five Golden Corpses, captured are Yan Gao and Wang He!” Li Shiming replied calmly.

Master Liu Ziyun, upon hearing this, was taken aback, not knowing what to say for a moment.

In the Cultivation World, the strongest two peak Great Cultivators moving around outside turned out to be captured by Li Shiming.

Moreover, the five late-stage Golden Corpses also filled Master Liu Ziyun with dread; though he quickly realized that it was perhaps exactly these five late-stage Golden Corpses that led to the defeat of Master Yan Gao and Master Wang He by Li Shiming.

This was precisely what Li Shiming wanted Master Liu Ziyun to know, otherwise, he would have cleared the scene long ago, leaving no information for Master Liu Ziyun to see.

Li Shiming needed to use Master Liu Ziyun to demonstrate his strength to the Cultivation World, demanding that any faction daring to provoke him should pay the price.

However, he had no intention of disclosing the matter of the Half-step Great Power; perhaps leading by a step signifies strength, but leading by ten steps leads to disbelief and malicious speculations.

Two peak Great Cultivators are enough to capture the attention of all factions, no need to gild the lily.

”How do you plan to deal with Master Yan Gao and Master Wang He?” Master Liu Ziyun, although reluctant to cause misunderstandings, couldn’t resist the allure of the intelligence concerning these two peak Great Cultivators, especially as it promised benefits to Central State Commerce and his own faction, thus he asked.

”Of course, interrogate them first, then kill them!” Li Shiming answered with a smile.

Master Liu Ziyun felt a chill all over; these two were not ordinary Great Cultivators but peak Great Cultivators, rare even among superpowers.

Each emergence of a peak Great Cultivator marked a culmination of vast resources concentrated by a faction, cultivated over millennia.

Peak Great Cultivators form the true core of a faction, wielding enormous power, and represent the strongest force out in the open for any faction.

It’s safe to say that with the loss of these two peak Great Cultivators, the strength of the White Emperor Sect and Yuqing Sect would significantly decline.

Whether selling this intelligence to the White Emperor Sect and Yuqing Sect or to their adversaries among superpowers, it would reap great benefits.

Moreover, it would enable Central State Commerce to let its own faction promptly arrange to reap benefits amidst the weakening of Yuqing Sect and White Emperor Sect.

”Here are the fourth-grade Array Materials you wanted, luckily a new batch just arrived, so I managed to gather what you need!” Master Liu Ziyun changed the subject, taking out a Mustard Seed Ring and placing it down.

This time, the fourth-grade Array Materials required by Li Shiming were plenty in number, usually requiring a long wait for such materials, for Central State Commerce would have to source them from other continents.

But this time was different, due to the expansion of Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s power, a large number of fourth-grade Array Materials were needed, and Central State Commerce was first to know this, hence sourced substantial fourth-grade Array Materials from various continents early on to support the construction for Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

”I’ll be staying in Dongqi Continent for five more months, during which I’ll accept Great Cultivator-level alchemy commissions. I guarantee the quality of alchemy to be high-grade, so the remuneration would be based on high-grade Spirit Pills for Great Cultivators!” Li Shiming picked up the Mustard Seed Ring, scanned it with Divine Sense, then nodded in satisfaction.

Though unlike Li Yuanba, who had the powerful Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion as backing, he had already shown the Cultivation World that his strength was his backing.

Anyone coveting his alchemy skills must consider his battle prowess, the prowess that defeated two peak Great Cultivators.
