"How could a Golden Winged Dapeng appear here?" Great Cultivator Shen Ze suppressed his astonished voice, fearing that the sound might be too loud and alert the Golden Winged Dapeng in the sky.
"Could it be that there’s a problem with the prohibitions in the Divine Beast Garden, allowing the Golden Winged Dapeng to escape?" Great Cultivator Ji Chuan followed up.
Li Shiming imdiately noted the location of the Divine Beast Garden, as this was the first ti he heard such deep information about the Divine Palace from the mouths of Great Cultivators.
"The Divine Beast Garden couldn’t possibly have an issue. If it did, it wouldn’t just be a single Golden Winged Dapeng here!" said Grandmaster Leng Hong of the demonic path, shaking his head.
His gaze was fixed on the Golden Winged Dapeng, filled with both fear and greed.
The fear was a natural reluctance to be discovered by the Golden Winged Dapeng in such a place. The greed stemd from the fact that the Golden Winged Dapeng was a Divine Beast, and for any Great Cultivator, such an existence was the pinnacle among Spiritual Pets.
More importantly, Divine Beasts had other special functions, especially when their attributes matched those of a Great Cultivator, which could influence the process of advancing in power.
Therefore, the Divine Beast Garden was one of the major targets for the Great Cultivators present, and having the chance to enter once and obtain a Divine Beast Spiritual Pet was worth the trip to the Divine Palace.
"Why is it that the Golden Winged Dapeng can fly, but we cannot?" Li Shiming asked at this mont.
He didn’t inquire about the location of the Divine Beast Garden but instead asked a question that wasn’t significantly relevant to exploration.
He also understood that if he asked questions related to important exploration matters, the six Peak Great Cultivators would not bother responding to him.
"The Golden Winged Dapeng was nurtured by the Divine Palace and is not affected by its prohibitions. The restrictions in the sky target only us outsider cultivators!" Great Cultivator Shen Ze answered without concealnt after so thought.
Li Shiming looked to the sky once again; even using his ’Spirit Eye’ to the fullest extent, he couldn’t see any prohibitions.
He knew it was because his realm was too low and the prohibitions here were too high-level for him to detect.
He gazed again at the Golden Winged Dapeng, a legendary Divine Beast; though he wasn’t sure if this one was the legendary kind, the aura it emitted from the sky was definitely on par with the top-tier bloodlines of the Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan.
The Golden Winged Dapeng exuded an aura of the Five Elents, which, coincidentally, matched Li Shiming’s attributes.
Unfortunately, not to ntion the existence of prohibitions in the sky, even if he were willing to take the risk of capturing the Golden Winged Dapeng, the six Peak Great Cultivators would not permit it.
After a period of circling, the Golden Winged Dapeng flew off into the distance.
Great Cultivator Shen Ze retracted the mirror light, exposing the Great Cultivators to the outside world.
"We shouldn’t rest for long, let’s continue moving forward!" Grandmaster Leng Hong suggested.
His suggestion was t with agreent from the other Great Cultivators, seizing the opportunity while the Golden Winged Dapeng was absent to advance further.
In the forest of the second mountain peak, the quantity of resources increased significantly.
Li Shiming continuously calculated the number of tis he could make a move, limiting his maximum spiritual power expenditure to three-fifths of a Nascent Soul’s total spiritual power.
This was an extrely reasonable limit for spiritual power consumption; he didn’t want his recklessness to expose the secret of his spiritual power reserves to the other Great Cultivators.
In fact, the Peak Great Cultivators were well aware of how many Thunder Skill attacks soone like Li Shiming could launch with his current realm.
He did not wish to make any special displays, knowing that hidden spiritual power would keep him safer and give him more cards to play.
Another day passed without the Golden Winged Dapeng appearing again, which put the Great Cultivators sowhat at ease.
"Mr. Shen, fellow Daoists, can we shift ten ters to the left?" Li Shiming suddenly asked Great Cultivator Shen Ze.
Hearing this, Great Cultivator Shen Ze couldn’t help but glance ten ters to the left, where three spirit tea trees stood.
"Fourth Grade Inquiry Tea Trees, indeed top-tier spirit tea trees, still hold so utility for Mr. Li. I suggest we shift over there!" he said with a smile to the other Great Cultivators.
The other Great Cultivators held no objections. Li Shiming’s inclusion in their group had increased both their yield and speed of exploration.
Having not made any prior demands, denying this relatively easy request would indeed seem unreasonable.
As for the Fourth Grade Inquiry Tea Trees, they did serve a purpose for Great Cultivators, but were ineffective for Peak Great Cultivators, considered rely ordinary resources among Great Cultivators.
In a place teeming with resources for Great Cultivators, if Li Shiming hadn’t brought it up, these Peak Great Cultivators certainly wouldn’t have altered their path for the sake of three Fourth Grade Inquiry Tea Trees.
As they shifted left, they encountered a prohibition, which the Great Cultivators collectively neutralized.
"I will take these three Inquiry Tea Trees, counting them as part of my share of Great Cultivator resources!" Li Shiming said while digging up the three Inquiry Tea Trees.
He placed little emphasis on Great Cultivator resources primarily because he had an abundance of high-level spirit pills, enough to last him two hundred years.
This was even after distributing so of the high-level spirit pills to his clone, Li Yuanba; the Great Cultivator spirit dicine accumulated in his Immortal World side was almost entirely refined into spirit pills by him, with the ’Hundred One-point Pill Technique’ effectively making him a resource user supported by the entire cultivation world.
The three Fourth Grade Inquiry Tea Trees were incredibly rare types of spirit trees.
Previously, he had only seen low-grade Inquiry Tea Trees and had never encountered a Fourth Grade one, as promoting a low-grade Inquiry Tea Tree to Fourth Grade was no easier than finding a new Fourth Grade Inquiry Tea Tree.
