Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 2019: Chapter 1056: Departure

Li Yuanba returned to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and began another period of closed cultivation.

This time, it was to utilize the ’Radiant Sun Bead’ and ’Dark Moon Pearl’ which were at the fastest enhancement stage to strengthen his own power.

The fifth-grade gold materials nurtured within his grotto-heaven were left with Li Shiming, who was tasked with refining and inscribing the sword blanks.

Additionally, his disciple Jian Jiuming successfully promoted to Peak Great Cultivator.

This can be considered his contribution to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, enhancing its Great Cultivator level power.

With Jian Jiuming’s potential, the likelihood of further advancing to Half-step Great Power is not small.

Compared to Jian Jiuming, the two genius cultivators from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect advanced faster, with Tang Zhe and Hu Sheng both stabilizing at the Peak Great Cultivator Realm for some time.

Tang Zhe benefited from the ’Thunder Prison’, having this top-tier Thunder Cultivator training ground, making it easier to progress in realm.

Hu Sheng, on the other hand, due to the Red Gold Phoenix, with his phoenix placed in the Ancient Spirit Beast Breeding Ground, the phoenix advanced to late stage fourth grade earlier, spurring his advancement to stand out among cultivators of the same generation, becoming a top-tier talent on par with Tang Zhe.

Li Shiming intensified his guidance to Hu Sheng, while his avatar Li Taibai strengthened his guidance to Tang Zhe.

To accelerate these disciples’ comprehension of rules, he even utilized the IBMz15 to customize enhancement plans for them.

The urgency stemmed from Li Shiming’s restlessness; he no longer wished to stay in this Cultivation World.

The scarce fifth-grade spiritual medicines held by great powers in the current Cultivation World can only be accumulated at a rate of one plant every hundred years.

Rather than waiting here, it would be better to leave in search of opportunities.

Even after spending hundreds of years outside before returning, it is believed the great powers would still have amassed fifth-grade spiritual medicines by then.

To leave the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, he needed to account for his actions to the sect.

As for how to let Peak Great Cultivator inherit the Inheritance Cave Heaven, he found a method from the classics left by Wan Fu Great Power.

His task was to help the two disciples quickly advance to Half-step Great Power, then leave the inheritance cave technique.

During the teaching of the two disciples, he performed Corpse Refining six times.

He refined Wan Fu Great Power’s body into a ’Flying Night Demon’, named it ’Bow Servant’.

He handed Wan Fu Great Power’s Lifebound Spiritual Treasure, ’Golden Light Spirit Bow’, to Bow Servant. Despite inheriting limited abilities from Wan Fu, Bow Servant could still exert significant remote attack power with ’Golden Light Spirit Bow’.

Bow Servant’s greatest strength was a charged strike, requiring ten breaths of time to charge with ’Golden Light Spirit Bow’, the arrow released was even stronger than Wan Fu Great Power’s charged arrow.

This was due to Li Shiming inscribing sixty million ’Refining Corpse Runes’ on Bow Servant, enhancing its strength during corpse refinement.

The sixty million ’Refining Corpse Runes’ were enough for Bow Servant to undergo qualitative change, possessing attack power surpassing Wan Fu Great Power.

The other five Corpse Refining sessions aimed at refining fifth-grade ’Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers’.

Eventually, his fifth-grade ’Exotic Realm Divine Soldiers’ numbered ten, these were hidden combat powers, and with Sword Servant, Thunder Servant, and Bow Servant, he alone exceeded all Great Power level combat forces on the Central State Continent.

Of course, the Cultivation World’s great powers only suspected Li Shiming possessed fifth-grade combat power, but the confirmed ones were Sword Servant, Thunder Servant, and Bow Servant.

Years later, Tang Zhe was the first to advance to Half-step Great Power, followed by Hu Sheng a year later.

During this time, Li Yuanba exchanged his Lifebound Flying Sword for one named ’Purple Cloud Sword’, it was a spiritual treasure with two hundred billion fewer ’Sword Intent Rule Runes’ compared to ’Slaying Immortal Sword’.

The ’Purple Cloud Sword’ lacked the ’Durability’ trait of ’Slaying Immortal Sword’, but Li Yuanba’s fortune was excellent, ’Purple Cloud Sword’ possessed another trait ’Speed’.

Therefore, the ’Purple Cloud Sword’ was not much weaker than ’Slaying Immortal Sword’, with ’Slaying Immortal Sword’ having greater power and ’Purple Cloud Sword’ being faster.

That day, Li Shiming invited Grandmaster Hu.

Currently, Grandmaster Hu, due to consuming multiple Life-extending Elixirs, actually felt more vigorous.

His lifespan still exceeded five hundred years, which made him extremely satisfied.

”Master, please sit!” Li Shiming stood up and invited Grandmaster Hu to take the main seat.

Grandmaster Hu smiled and did not refuse, after sitting down he gestured for Li Shiming to sit.

”Planning to leave, are you?” Grandmaster Hu asked with a smile.

”Master, how did you know?” Li Shiming responded with surprise.

He hadn’t mentioned this to any cultivator in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, not even his own disciples.

The only one aware was Yin Shilan, but Yin Shilan would not disclose such things.

”When you and Li Taibai urgently guided Hu Sheng and Tang Zhe, I had a hunch!” Grandmaster Hu gestured with his hand.

Looking at his disciple, Grandmaster Hu reminisced on accepting Li Shiming as his disciple, not expecting him to bring such a transformation to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

Now, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect had become one of the top superpowers in the Cultivation World.

Li Shiming, Li Taibai, along with Yin Shilan, elevated the Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s great power combat forces far beyond those of other superpowers.

Still, the foundation of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect was inadequate, even with Hu Sheng and Tang Zhe advancing to Half-step Great Power, they were still weaker than multiple superpowers at that level.

To truly imbue the Ten Thousand Beast Sect with the foundation of a superpower, it needed to produce an Inheritor Great Ability, and a complete echelon of Half-step Great Powers too.
