Chapter 661: Chapter 377: Induction
Li Shiming was holding a golden Jade Scroll in his hand, which had just been brought back by the Silver Corpse.
The Wisdom Fla Arhat was rather forthright; as soon as Li Shiming agreed to the terms, he left behind the complete “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill.”
The contents of the “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” were entirely copied into his life-bound magical artifact IBMz15 after his Divine Thought entered the Jade Scroll.
Obviously, Qianye Temple hadn’t tampered with this “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” at all, for it included not only the technique itself but also many cultivators’ insights who had practiced this skill.
This could be said to be a complete legacy of Body Refining Techniques, incorporating techniques, insights, and experiential wisdom, a legacy that could only have been summarized over thousands of years.
Yet such a legacy of “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,” which surprised Li Shiming, was easily handed over to him by Qianye Temple.
What Li Shiming didn’t know was that the completeness of this legacy was Qianye Temple’s gesture of goodwill towards him.
During Qianye Temple’s period of weakened strength, the importance of Li Shiming, the Alchemy Master, beca even greater.
Apart from the plan to cultivate a Venerable which required Li Shiming’s help, there were also other Spirit Pills that needed Li Shiming’s handiwork.
Moreover, the plan to cultivate a Venerable was not guaranteed to succeed; not to ntion a hundred percent, even a ten percent success rate would be decent.
In case of failure, they would still need Li Shiming to continue assisting in Alchemy, so it was prudent to maintain a good relationship with him in advance.
Carefully comparing this “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,” he discovered there were so differences from the one he was practicing.
The “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” was widely circulated; many sects had collected versions at least up to the Golden Core volu and earlier.
But in its transmission, either intentionally or unintentionally, there were always so errors and discrepancies.
The version from Qianye Temple appeared to Li Shiming to be the most orthodox; he adjusted his own Vajra power based on this legacy’s contents.
Having reached the peak level of the Golden Core in the “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill,” he had already achieved Great Elder-level Body Refining Power, an area in which he could no longer ascend.
However, after adjusting his Vajra power, he found that his Body Refining power had increased by another ten percent.
This ten percent was purely the result of the technique; after the adjustnt, the Vajra power inside his body enhanced its augntation on his physique.
Li Shiming then reverted to his daily routine of cultivating, Alchemy research, and life was similarly peaceful for Li Yuanba in the Senluo Sect.
As the cultivator’s saying goes, “in cultivation, the years vanish like a stream”; in the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
One day, Li Shiming opened his eyes from cultivation, his gaze filled with astonishnt.
Just then, his heart had throbbed intensely, as if sothing was about to occur.
In this world, few things concerned him, apart from his alter ego Li Yuanba and Yin Shilan.
He sent a ssage to Yin Shilan, but there was no response.
He imdiately contacted a familiar cultivator from the Thousand Illusion Sect and was inford that Yin Shilan had entered seclusion again.
Yin Shilan underwent seclusion periodically; her cultivation hadn’t been so diligent originally, but stimulated by the Cultivation Spirit Pills Li Shiming provided, and the fact that Li Shiming had advanced to the Golden Core stage long ago, she had been working hard.
She had promised Li Shiming that they would beco a Daoist couple upon reaching the Golden Core Stage. True to her character, she would not vocalize the reason, but her actions made it clear to Li Shiming.
Since it wasn’t Yin Shilan who was in trouble, then…
Li Shiming suddenly thought of Sky Sea Island, recalling his secular family which he had not contacted for a long ti.
Instantly, the reason for the palpitations beca clear; his father had encountered so trouble, a sensation that surfaced starkly when he thought of his family in Heavenly Sea.
Even though the path of cultivation ant severance from the mundane world, he was still human, always possessing his own emotions.
“I miss ho!” he murmured softly, voicing the most heartfelt sentint he had expressed in years.
Feeling incapable of staying put for another mont, he knew he had to go to Sky Sea Island imdiately.
He casually packed up all the essentials, flashed out of his cave dwelling, and then traveled outside, casting a spell at Heavenly Eye Peak.
Li Shiming was in luck; he had barely cast the spell when he received a reply from his master, Elder Su, inviting him in.
He flew into Heavenly Eye Peak, arriving at his master’s cave dwelling entrance.
The cave dwelling was already open, and inside, Elder Su was waiting for him.
“I greet Master!” Li Shiming bowed respectfully and said.
“Shiming, you haven’t left your cave dwelling in a long ti. What brings you out today?” Elder Su asked with a smile, looking at Li Shiming.
He could sense the aura around Li Shiming; although since ascending to Golden Core, Li Shiming’s aura had been at Golden Core Early Stage Peak, it was now genuinely at that level.
He felt almost overtaken by his own disciple. Li Shiming’s senior sister Ye Jingxian had ford her Golden Core before him, but had yet to truly achieve the combat power of the Golden Core Stage.
In the decade following the achievent of a Golden Core, a cultivator needed to shift their main cultivation technique to the Golden Core volu, ensure the Golden Core was replete with Spiritual Energy, and also refine their life-bound magical weapons and other magical instrunts, to ensure at least a coordinated offensive and defensive combat capability.
Yet, here was his disciple, who had completed in a short ti what other Golden Core cultivators took decades to achieve.
And in doing so, Li Shiming had achieved unprecedented heights in the Art of Alchemy as well.
