Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1727: Chapter 910: Development

”Lan’er, you’ve worked hard!” Li Shiming saw Yin Shilan returning after sending off Jian Wuwei and gestured for her to sit down.

”I never expected to see old friends here, it really brings back memories of the days in Beishu Continent!” Yin Shilan said softly.

She sat beside Li Shiming. Although she knew cultivators shouldn’t be sentimental, she couldn’t help but recall the past upon meeting old acquaintances.

”If you want, we can go back to Beishu Continent anytime for a visit!” Li Shiming said with a smile.

”No need, with you by my side, and with this mountain here, I feel nothing has changed!” Yin Shilan shook her head with a happy smile.

She was very content with her current life. Li Shiming had almost thought of everything for her, even reconstructing the mountain peak where she lived.

She couldn’t ask for more. She was well aware that although Li Shiming appeared relaxed, he wasn’t actually at ease; having been with Li Shiming for a long time, she could still feel it.

Li Shiming said nothing more, he just gently held Yin Shilan’s hand.

Recently, Li Shiming indeed seemed to be as Yin Shilan thought, not cultivating and always staying with Yin Shilan, enjoying the scenery.

But in reality, he never stopped cultivating. However, these cultivations weren’t about the techniques, but rather using multiple brains to gain deeper insights into the Five Elements Rules, Sword Intent Rule, Thunder Rules, Space Rules, and so on.

The insights he gained continued to provide more data for IBMz15, enabling IBMz15 to virtually support the ’Divine Perception Stele’.

Additionally, he specially used one brain to analyze and study the ’Cold Moon Ice Soul Needle’.

The ’Cold Moon Ice Soul Needle’, a treasure-level item, although not as widely applicable as the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’, certainly didn’t lack potency.

Since the ’Cold Moon Ice Soul Needle’ could be bound to a master, he could fully utilize it for physical attacks.

As for the ’Cold Moon Ice Soul Needle’s method of use, there was no need to worry. Not only did he find the technique for ice-type flying needle attacks in the classics seized from the Guiyuan Sect, but many similar secret techniques were also found in other texts.

Due to the presence of ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ within him, as long as there were related secret techniques, he could simulate ice spiritual power through ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ to unleash the ’Cold Moon Ice Soul Needle’s maximum power.

Li Shiming felt a sense of urgency, even though his level had reached the pinnacle of a Great Cultivator, making him a top existence in the Cultivation World.

But he was very clear that neither here nor over in the Cloud Island Sea were his enemies anything less than a Great Power.

Unless he could advance to Great Power, he would always be under threat from the Great Powers.

Don’t be fooled by the recent period where the Great Powers of various superforces acted to suppress Great Power Luo Yuan from the Yuqing Sect, but how long this suppression could last was really hard to say.

That’s why, even after knowing temporary safety, he still constructed this multi-protected cave dwelling and built a ’Space Transmission Array’ in it, all in preparation for potential attacks from Great Powers.

The alliance between the Ten Thousand Beast Sect and the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion caused some ripples in the Cultivation World.

Shortly after Jian Wuwei left Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, all the other superforces on the Central State Continent, except Luanyang Palace and Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, sent official representatives to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

Their purpose was very clear, to establish sect-level connections with the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, although not as close as allies, becoming allies requires a gradual process, starting with sect-level exchanges, then progressing to the ally stage.

Along with these visits, there was a large amount of commercial cooperation. The Ten Thousand Beast Sect traded specialty resources from Beishu Continent and Dongqi Continent with these superforces to obtain resources needed by the Ten Thousand Beast Sect and Beishu Sect.

This allowed the Ten Thousand Beast Sect to be self-sufficient in Great Cultivator resources and even achieve some accumulation.

This was not an easy feat. The Great Cultivator resource production in Dongqi Continent had always been low, and even though there were some specialty resources, most profits had previously been siphoned off by cross-continent powers due to underdeveloped cross-continent commerce.

Now, with the relationship network of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect being established, commercial cooperation became easier, increasing the benefits and income for the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, enabling them to acquire more Great Cultivator resources.

Li Shiming did not take out his own Great Cultivator resources. He did not want to rely on one person’s strength to support a sect.

In fact, he could very well do so. The massive amount of Great Cultivator resources he had would be enough for the Ten Thousand Beast Sect to develop for thousands of years without needing external resources.

If he really did that, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect would lose more; a sect with no direction to strive for might start to decline before even reaching its peak.

In terms of alchemy, Li Shiming continued to work on alchemy commissions and consistently produced Great Cultivator Spirit Pills.

The Great Cultivator resources he had were simply too abundant; the alchemy space had never stopped. Fortunately, he had enough brains, so as long as he rotated them periodically, he didn’t have to worry about them getting too fatigued.

The biggest advantage brought by this large-scale alchemy was that every so often, he would refine top-grade Great Cultivator Spirit Pills.

The top-grade Great Cultivator Spirit Pills were reserved for Yin Shilan. Both he and Li Yuanba no longer needed them, as he was now at the peak of Great Cultivator; his cultivation could only progress with slow honing over time.
