Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1560: Chapter 826: Inventory_2

In the end, he took out an entire set of fourth-grade top-quality living items from the soul crystal ring of Yan Gao Great Cultivator.

It included a tea set, a set of tables and chairs, a meditation cushion for cultivation, and a screen with continuously changing patterns. Among these spiritual objects, only the meditation cushion had some practical use, as it could slightly enhance cultivation effects. The usefulness of the other spiritual objects did not match their fourth-grade top quality.

In his view, it was probably just a display of vanity; if judged by practical value, using fourth-grade top materials was definitely a major loss.

Li Shiming put down the soul crystal ring of Yan Gao Great Cultivator and picked up the soul crystal ring of Master Wang He.

When he saw the fourth-grade top flying boat, he was surprised. Wasn’t it said that fourth-grade top flying boats are extremely rare?

The fourth-grade top flying boats he owned, including the ones he had just obtained, totaled more than five.

But considering the type of cultivators he had slain, who were the highest echelon of the cultivation world, it was completely understandable.

He didn’t research the fourth-grade top flying boat; after having many, it was not a big deal.

Two sets of thunder-based fourth-grade top materials were extremely useful. The ”Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer” he used was still an early-stage spiritual artifact.

With forty million thunder attack arrays and as many as four hundred and eighty million thunder runes, it seemed like a lot, but since he increased his mastery of his own room space to 0.05 nanometers, the ”Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer” he could forge would have several times the number of runes it originally had.

He had always been considering upgrading his ”Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer,” but improving the quality required thunder-based fourth-grade top materials, which were almost impossible to find externally.

With Yuqing Sect, a superpower specializing in thunder skills, most thunder-based fourth-grade top materials were taken away by Yuqing Sect.

Now, he finally had the opportunity to enhance his natal spiritual artifact, the ”Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer.”

Once it was further enhanced, it was enough to allow his thunder skills to break through again. Given his current situation, increasing his attack power was difficult, so he wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.

Li Shiming also found fifteen portions of Great Cultivator spirit medicine and twenty middle-level Great Cultivator spirit pills in the soul crystal ring, indicating that the two peak Great Cultivators had ample resources.

Of course, he didn’t know that after reaching the peak Great Cultivator level, the consumption of Great Cultivator spirit pills had decreased significantly, and with the distribution of sect resources and mission rewards, they were able to accumulate so much.

Normally, a Great Cultivator would accumulate two to three servings of Great Cultivator spirit medicine, and after storing a few Great Cultivator spirit pills, they would consider secluding themselves to cultivate, turning resources into strength.

Then there were some jade scrolls, similar to those preserved by Yan Gao Great Cultivator. These jade scrolls were also data related to rules.

Both Master Wang He and Yan Gao Great Cultivator were ambitious in pursuing a further step, hoping to make another advancement and become a half-step Great Power.

There was also the same set of fourth-grade top-quality living items, equally luxurious.

”Something’s not right!” Li Shiming searched through the soul crystal rings of the two peak Great Cultivators, needing to identify each item due to the abundance of miscellaneous items.

What he was looking for was information and resources related to the peak Great Cultivator’s advancement to the Mahayana realm.

In his thinking, whether Yan Gao Great Cultivator or Wang He Great Cultivator, both were the closest to half-step Great Power among the superpowers, so they should carry information and resources about advancing to the Mahayana realm.

This was what he needed. Although he didn’t know how long it would take him to reach the Peak Great Cultivator Realm, he believed that day wouldn’t be too far away.

For him, his sect, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, would offer limited assistance in this aspect, forcing him to rely entirely on himself.

Although the ”Heavenly Human Technique” had a cultivation technique for breaking through to the Mahayana realm, such an important advancement still required experience, insights, and resource assurance.

The resources for a breakthrough to the Mahayana realm weren’t something one could exchange for, as no forces would trade away such critical resources.

Li Shiming shook his head. Although there were many items in the two soul crystal rings, he was still disappointed.

He took the soul crystal ring of half-step Great Power Yang Xing, and his divine sense entered it.

The interior of this soul crystal ring was similar in size to the soul crystal rings of the two peak Great Cultivators, with nothing special in terms of quality.

The spiritual objects inside were clearly fewer, only a few items in number.

He first saw a jade scroll, a dark golden jade scroll, and it was the only one in this collection, highlighting its importance.

A dark golden jade scroll left by a half-step Great Power provoked tremendous curiosity, and he felt it was extremely important to him.

He retrieved the dark golden jade scroll, and his divine sense entered it.

This was a jade scroll recording the classic ”Cave Profound Record,” which surprisingly taught cultivators how to construct a grotto heaven.

When it came to constructing grotto heavens, Li Shiming had always been speculating based on the grotto heavens he saw. He had obtained many texts before, but none about this topic.

But thinking about the content of the ”Cave Profound Record,” it was reasonable; cultivators capable of constructing grotto heavens weren’t numerous, even across the entire cultivation world.

At least a half-step Great Power would be qualified to write it, and not just any average half-step Great Power, but one who was close to the final step and had stabilized their grotto heaven.

Based on the content in the ”Cave Profound Record,” Li Shiming could be sure that the author wasn’t just one Great Power but many Great Powers who collaborated.

Because it mentioned various rules in the construction of grotto heavens, with Li Shiming’s limited understanding, at the half-step Great Power level, one couldn’t comprehend so many rules.

He had witnessed the might of Great Powers and believed that even Great Powers weren’t omnipotent concerning rules.

The ”Cave Profound Record” was too profound for Li Shiming, at least beyond what he could currently comprehend, as it involved too many rules, and understanding the content required an appropriate level of rule comprehension.

Transferring the content of the ”Cave Profound Record” into his natal artifact, IBMz15, IBMz15 opened an independent project on constructing grotto heavens.

Additionally, utilizing the research on Thunder Cave Heaven and Half-Life Cave Heaven, along with Li Shiming’s understanding of thunder and Five Elements rules, IBMz15 prepared to first construct a grotto heaven in a virtual world.

This was to lay the theoretical foundation for Li Shiming to construct a grotto heaven in the future. Constructing a grotto heaven permitted no mistakes, as there were no second chances.

The first jade scroll brought unexpected joy; he then looked at the second spiritual object.

It was a piece of wood, seemingly ordinary, but when his divine sense made contact, he immediately sensed the wood’s peculiarity.

The wood had characteristics similar to the divine tree within Half-Life Cave Heaven. If he wasn’t mistaken, this wood was a wood-based treasure.

He was very clear about the function of such a wood-based treasure. Initially, in his search for Half-Life Cave Heaven throughout the cultivation world, he was looking for Five Elements Treasure.

Later, he discovered that such treasures were most likely to be found at the core of a grotto heaven.

Almost every grotto heaven’s core consisted of some treasure serving as its heart.

Previously, he wasn’t sure whether the treasures were generated by the grotto heaven itself or placed in advance during its formation.

Through Thunder Cave Heaven, he could now provide a relatively accurate conclusion, which was that a treasure needed to be placed during the grotto heaven’s construction, and this treasure would become its core.

Only such a treasure could possibly nurture and bear artifact spirits of wisdom after the grotto heaven formed.

The wood in his hand could be understood as a material half-step Great Power Yang Xing prepared for constructing the second phase of a grotto heaven.

He also realized how fortunate he had been; the materials a half-step Great Power prepared for himself were not as good as the materials he had sought out far and wide.
