The lean Devil Cultivator retreated while assessing the situation. As a Devil Cultivator, he had extensive combat experience.
He realized that none of his defensive artifacts could withstand the power of these ten ’Thunder Fall Skills,’ not to ntion that the power of the ’Thunder Fall Skill’ itself exceeded the attack strength of a peak Thunder Cultivator.
Even the inherent counteraction of Thunder Skill against Demon Cultivation Techniques, combined with the attack of ten ’Thunder Fall Skills,’ would significantly weaken the power of his Devil Cultivation defensive artifacts.
Fortunately, he noticed early on and started retreating as soon as Li Shiming activated the ’Thunder Fall Skill.’ Otherwise, if he had waited for it to be released, he might not have had ti to react.
He made an imdiate decision; a flash of white, sinister light appeared on his body, and a skeleton erged in front of him.
The skeleton stood between him and the ten ’Thunder Fall Skills,’ allowing him to continue retreating.
The lightning generated by the ten ’Thunder Fall Skills’ descended with a roar upon the skeleton actively blocking the attack.
The skeleton was unexpectedly sturdy. Although Li Shiming’s ’Thunder Fall Skill’ did not employ the Lightning Skill at the spirit treasure level with the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hamr,’ the power enhanced by the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ from the space made it impossible for ordinary defensive artifacts to withstand the simultaneous attack of ten ’Thunder Fall Skills.’
When the lightning struck the skeleton, a piercing soul scream emanated from it.
Under normal circumstances, such a soul scream would impact the souls of nearby enemies, but unfortunately, the attack was lightning-based, and much of the power of the soul scream was dissipated by the lightning.
Several parts of the skeleton turned black from the lightning strikes, starkly contrasting against the pristine whiteness.
The retreating lean Devil Cultivator’s body appeared sowhat bizarre at this mont, resembling a boneless rubber figure entirely supported by the Spiritual Power Pattern.
His face was unsightly. The damage inflicted on the skeleton, which was linked to his soul, also affected him.
Fortunately, the skeleton was still strong enough to withstand Li Shiming’s ten ’Thunder Fall Skills.’
However, at this point, the lean Devil Cultivator no longer entertained any thoughts of fighting Li Shiming. This unreasonable Great Cultivator of the Thunder Path filled him with dread.
Li Shiming’s gaze sharpened slightly. He looked at the skeleton that blocked the ten bolts of lightning, which was shrouded in unimaginable deathly energy. Yet, it managed to withstand the ten powerful lightning strikes.
He could be one hundred percent sure that the lean Devil Cultivator he fought was not a mber of any sect in his Cultivation World.
He had never heard of any Cultivation Technique that focused mainly on skeletons. From the matching aura of both the skeleton and the lean Devil Cultivator, and the latter’s boneless state, he deduced that the skeleton was indeed the bones of the lean Devil Cultivator.
If such a bone cultivation technique existed in the Cultivation World, he would have certainly heard of it.
"Fellow cultivator, since we have entered the Divine Palace, we are companions. If Zongjing has caused any offense previously, I ask for your forgiveness!" said another Great Cultivator Devil Cultivator, stepping forward.
The Great Cultivator Zongjing, who had fought with Li Shiming, had now joined with two other Devil Cultivators. They were astounded by Li Shiming’s combat strength and stood together, planning to jointly resist.
Although Li Shiming didn’t know exactly what had happened, he understood that these six Great Cultivators were here to explore this place they called the Divine Palace.
Moreover, there was an entry limit to the Divine Palace, and he was the extra one.
If he revealed himself as an accidental entrant, he might end up as the enemy of the six Great Cultivators.
It was better to maintain the power balance between the Righteous and Devil paths, maximizing his role as an outsider, which was most beneficial for him.
Even though he was very strong and might be able to kill all three Devil Cultivator Great Cultivators if he tried wholeheartedly, he saw no benefit in it. It was better to cooperate with these Great Cultivators to uncover the secrets of the Divine Palace.
This was a better approach compared to exploring on his own, where he might encounter unknown dangers.
"I hope such incidents won’t happen again. I am not always this easy to talk to!" Li Shiming replied indifferently.
As he spoke, he deliberately added a slight accent to his words.
This accent was unconsciously present in the speech of these six Great Cultivators. It seed that due to cultivation classics and techniques, all cultivators in the Cultivation World used the sa standard language.
But because of the cultivators’ origins, environnts, and so on, this standard language still contained so unique characteristics.
Through his life-bound artifact IBMz15, Li Shiming quickly analyzed their speaking traits and infused that subtle accent into his own speech.
Indeed, upon hearing Li Shiming speak, the six Great Cultivators didn’t show it on their faces, but he could sense a slight relaxation in their spirits.
"Shen Ze of the Mirror Moon Sect does not know the full na of the distinguished fellow. A Thunder Cultivator of such power is indeed rare?" One of the Righteous Path Great Cultivators slightly bowed and introduced himself.
"Li Shiming has t Mr. Shen!" Li Shiming replied, returning the gesture without hiding his na.
If his guess was correct, this place was not in the Central State Continent or in the Cultivation World where he previously resided.
Therefore, revealing his real na to the other party mattered little since they couldn’t find anything through his na anyway.
"Li Shiming!" The six Great Cultivators looked at each other, each hearing the na for the first ti.
"May I ask which sect Mr. Li hails from?" Great Cultivator Shen Ze continued to ask.
