Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 203: Chapter 148 Electromagnetism

Li Shiming sat on the reefs of Tianji Island, with Yin Shilan closing her eyes to rest beside him.

Not long after his breakthrough to the Qi Refining Seventh Level, more Golden Core cultivators returned to Seven Star Island, where they all gathered to discuss matters, leaving him and Yin Shilan behind.

He felt the Spiritual Energy Vortex within his body, noticing a huge increase in the total amount of Spiritual Power, making him feel that if he were to use the top-tier ‘Vajra Armor,’ he would be able to sustain it for over a minute.

The change in the amount of Spiritual Power was one aspect, but the increase in the quality of his Spiritual Power made it more potent. With his current Spiritual Power, without relying on other methods and simply using Spiritual Power to fight, he could defeat five or six of his former selves.

No wonder only those who were Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivators began to have the rights to enter dangerous seas.

Only with such combat power could one have a certain ability to protect oneself in hazardous waters.

This unexpected promotion had saved him a lot of time.

It’s important to note that when he was stuck at the bottleneck of the Qi Refining Sixth Layer Peak, even his clone couldn’t offer any help, and he had to rely entirely on himself to break through the bottleneck.

And from the Qi Refining Middle Stage to the Qi Refining Late Stage was the most difficult bottleneck to overcome in the Qi Refinement Realm.

With his tri-spirit root seeds talent, it was possible to be stuck for several months or even years.

Li Shiming then assessed his body’s condition; the increase in strength and speed was extremely obvious, and his robust physique allowed him to truly withstand attacks from High Grade Attack Magic Items solely with his body.

In the current sect, where most Qi Refining cultivators don’t possess top-grade magic tools, he could totally compete with Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivators solely with the might of Body Refinement.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had created a Mid-grade Magic Weapon Gatling for the copper corpse, he felt that he might not need the copper corpse at all, since his current defensive power, strength, and speed all surpassed those of a copper corpse at the Qi Refining Peak.

“Manifestation of True Intent!” Li Shiming murmured to himself.

Through the records of IBM z15, he knew what had happened during his moment of enlightenment.

The appearance of the Angry-eyed Vajra Phantom behind him gave him a chilling feeling, something beyond the understanding of science.

However, according to what Master Du Hai said, the manifestation of true intent was very beneficial for cultivators.

Particularly in the way Master Du Hai looked at him, Li Shiming even suspected that if it weren’t for Elder Yin being there, Master Du Hai might have tied him up and taken him back to the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect.

Thinking of Master Du Hai, he took out the Buddha’s Talisman that Master Du Hai had given him, playing with it in his hand.

The Buddha’s Talisman was made of wood, but not just any ordinary wood – it was a second-grade spirit wood, which was material for making Spiritual Artifacts. To use such a material for making just a talisman showed how significant it was.

“Shiming, let’s keep the Buddha’s Talisman with me for now!” Yin Shilan opened her eyes and tenderly spoke, extending her delicate hand.

Her rare request for possession, with the resolve clear on her face, made Li Shiming chuckle and hand over the Buddha’s Talisman to her.

Li Shiming understood that she was worried about him joining a Buddhist Sect.

Previously, Yin Shilan wasn’t too concerned, but Li Shiming had displayed the manifestation of the Angry-eyed Vajra in front of his father and all the Golden Core cultivators.

Such astonishing talent for Buddhist cultivation techniques even made people wonder if Li Shiming could be the reincarnation of a great Buddhist figure.

At least Master Du Hai’s giving away his own Buddha’s Talisman contained such a thought.

Once Li Shiming entered the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect, they naturally had ways to test if he was indeed the reincarnation of a great Buddhist figure.

Yin Shilan happily put away the Buddha’s Talisman, and the two smiled at each other. Years of companionship made their mutual understanding unspoken.

Whether it was the growth in Li Shiming’s cultivation or the continuous repairs that deepened his understanding of the island’s formations, it only took them seven days to repair the Formation of Tianji Island.

On the other islands, some Array Masters were still repairing formations, and it seemed that they would not be able to finish anytime soon.

Fortunately, Zhuge Xuan did not propose to help those Array Masters, which likely meant that the competition in Formation repair was also a form of competition among the sects.

In these seven days, Golden Core cultivators had been constantly leaving and returning, but from their expressions, that Golden Core Sword Cultivator had not been found.

“We still need to stay on the island for a few more days, you all may rest freely if there is nothing pressing!” Zhuge Xuan commanded.

“Uncle-Master, here are the remaining materials for you!” Li Shiming handed over the storage bag containing the materials.

“Keep the extra materials for yourself, these were calculated based on the damage to the Formation; since you managed to save some, it’s naturally yours!” Zhuge Xuan said with a smile, waving his hand.

Li Shiming’s eyes lit up; the storage bag contained many fine materials.

Given that Seven Star Island was the dwelling place of Golden Core cultivators, the materials used for the Formations might not be third-grade Formation materials, but there were quite a few of the second grade.

Most crucially, these Formation materials were indeed useful to him, as he was in the midst of researching a weapon that could become more powerful with these materials.

What Zhuge referred to as savings were the result of Li Shiming’s precise calculations and minimal waste, resulting in the surplus of Formation materials.

“This is for you, too!” Yin Shilan, quick-witted, noticed Li Shiming’s joy at being able to keep the Formation materials, and handed over her share of the surplus Formation material storage bag to him.

Li Shiming quietly received it; there was no need for courtesy.

In those seven days, he had built a small Formation for himself within the great Formation of Tianji Island and had brought in some Spiritual Energy.

He didn’t know about the Spirit Veins of Seven Star Island, but the Spiritual Energy he had drawn was no weaker than a Mid-grade Spirit Vein.
