From the beginning of the battle to the mont it quieted down, it took only about thirty minutes.
Elder Wei Long and Elder Gong You stood together. They initially did not want to stand side by side, but upon witnessing Wu Shao’s terrifying battle prowess, and realizing that Young Master Zhang Xian was an ally of Wu Shao, while on the other side, Thunder Cultivator Li Shiming and Sword Cultivator Li Yuanba were allies as well.
This led the two Elders to make a decision to form an alliance with just a glance.
The original plan was simple: three altars, perfectly allocable, one for each of the three strongest Elders.
But now the number had increased to six individuals. Clearly, further combat was necessary to determine the final three cultivators.
"Sword Cultivator, Thunder Cultivator, which sect do you belong to? Do not hide your identities!" Elder Wei Long looked at Li Shiming and Li Yuanba and asked in a deep voice.
The simultaneous appearance and formation of a team by a Sword Cultivator and a Thunder Cultivator could only be nurtured by a dium to large power or sect.
Even the weaker mid-sized sects lacked sufficient resources to cultivate a Thunder Cultivation Great Elder and this Sword Cultivator with Body Refining Grand Elder capabilities.
Especially with the formidable power exhibited by Thunder Cultivation Great Elder Li Shiming, Elder Wei Long was extrely curious about his identity. By asking this, he also aid to provoke Wu Shao’s attention towards Li Shiming.
If Wu Shao and Li Shiming were to battle, regardless of the victor, both himself and Elder Gong You would benefit.
"I will only take one altar, you may contend for the other two!" Wu Shao glanced deeply at Li Shiming and then said blandly.
He felt apprehensive about Li Shiming; unable to use Nascent Soul Stage combat power, he did not have full confidence in defeating Li Shiming.
Li Shiming, this Thunder Cultivator, was able to summon Heavenly Thunder. Although this Heavenly Thunder was only at Golden Core Stage power, Wu Shao could tell that Li Shiming had other abilities.
As a Nascent Soul Ancestor, Wu Shao could discern more of Li Shiming’s hidden prowess, such as his surging Body Refinent aura and formidable spirit.
He needed to leverage Elder Wei Long and Elder Gong You to test Li Shiming’s strength.
If Li Shiming’s power was truly imnse, conceding two altars was no issue.
Once out of the Grotto Heaven and his power restored, he could then trouble Li Shiming, reclaiming the spoils from within the Grotto Heaven.
Elder Wei Long and Elder Gong You were tempted, acknowledging Li Shiming’s strength. Yet, in the Green Field Cave Heaven, the speed of Thunder Cultivators was impaired, with their battle capabilities significantly suppressed.
anwhile, the two Elders, along with the Blade Mantis, represented the combat power of three Elders. Engaging Li Shiming ant a considerable chance of victory.
But the question remained: Was Wu Shao’s word reliable?
When did Dongqi Continent encounter so many unfamiliar cultivators?
While unfamiliar Late-stage Golden Core Cultivators could appear, it was exceedingly strange for unfamiliar great elders, let alone two incredibly powerful great elders.
In their view, Wu Shao seed to be a Body Refining Grand Elder, with prowess far exceeding that of ordinary Body Refining Great Elders.
Whether Wu Shao or Li Shiming, being unknown was unlikely anywhere they went.
Although Li Shiming concealed his face, if such a powerful Thunder Cultivator had appeared on Dongqi Continent, they would surely have heard of him!
Elder Wei Long and Elder Gong You refrained from acting; they were in discussion.
"What Concealing Technique do you use? To enter the Green Field Cave Heaven with Nascent Soul Realm strength is truly a feat!" Li Shiming suddenly remarked to Wu Shao.
His words startled the two Elders from their discussion, both turning their focus to Wu Shao.
"Thunder Cultivator, why court death? Originally, I intended to let you exit the Cave Heaven alive. But since you’ve revealed my secret, I can only ensure none of you leave the Cave Heaven!" Wu Shao initially showed a change in expression, then laughed loudly.
Upon his identity being revealed, he no longer concealed, plainly showing the arrogance of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"Thunder Cultivator, let us join forces! He will not spare us!" Elder Wei Long yelled to Li Shiming.
In truth, Wei Long harbored so resentnt towards Li Shiming, feeling that even if he knew such things, they shouldn’t be publicly disclosed.
Once revealed, this Nascent Soul Cultivator would slash all witnesses for his own safety.
"I am curious, how long does it take for your Concealing Technique to restore Nascent Soul Cultivator strength?" Li Shiming seed unaffected by Wu Shao’s arrogance and asked with a smile.
"Thunder Cultivator, he’s using the Nascent Soul Body Fusion Secret thod; that’s a Feiyun Pavilion technique!" Elder Wei Long answered his inquiry.
Li Shiming had heard of Feiyun Pavilion, which was not a native force from Dongqi Continent, but a cross-continental entity, its strength comparable to the four major sects.
"How long for the Nascent Soul Body Fusion Secret thod to restore Nascent Soul Cultivator strength?" In the classics he read, Li Shiming found no ntion of the ’Nascent Soul Body Fusion Secret thod’; he asked again.
Wei Long was perplexed by his repetitive questioning.
What significance was there in asking this now? Did knowing the details of this technique an a way to defeat Wu Shao?
"It reportedly takes at least two hours to restore power!" Elder Wei Long still answered.
Li Shiming currently shared the sa enemy with him and Elder Gong You—the enemy of an enemy is a friend.
"Seniors, I am not participating in this competition!" Just as Li Shiming and Elder Wei Long were deliberating, no one expected Elder Gong You to suddenly leap onto the Blade Mantis’ back and shout.
