Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 835: Chapter 464: Secret Technique

‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ released Spiritual Power Pattern, ‘Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique’ converted this spiritual power into Five Elements spiritual power, respectively flowing into Li Shiming’s five Golden Cores.

When the spiritual power entered the Golden Core, he realized that previously he thought ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ flowed like a Spiritual Spring with spiritual power, but it wasn’t much.

However, this was spiritual power transformed from a Fourth Grade Spirit Item, and for him at the Golden Core Stage, one portion of spiritual power almost equaled dozens of his own.

He seemed to return to the time during the Foundation Establishment Stage when his cultivation frenziedly improved, with the spiritual power inside the Golden Core increasing constantly at an incredibly fast rate.

Unconsciously, one cycle of ‘Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique’ ended, and he discovered that this cycle of cultivation was equivalent to dozens of previous cycles.

Meanwhile, the Spiritual Spring formed by ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ within his body still hadn’t dissipated, continually spouting an endless stream of spiritual power.

He quickly continued cultivating ‘Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique’, this spiritual power spouted by ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ couldn’t be wasted.

Thus, he repeated the cultivation over and over, meditating for twelve two-hour shifts every day without interruption, continuously for twenty days before the Spiritual Spring formed by ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ within him finally dissipated.

Li Shiming’s cultivation level, after these twenty days, has greatly improved, nearly equivalent to years of cultivation gains.

And the effect came even though he was in complete seclusion, just like this time, cultivating twelve two-hour shifts every day without rest.

He sensed the condition of his body and found that only a day’s rest would allow him to continue consuming ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ and cultivating.

This is because of his extremely strong physique, which is thanks to having cultivated ‘Taiqing Xuan Turtle Technique’ to the Great Elder level, making his physique far superior to normal Golden Core cultivators.

Even outside in the continent, genius cultivators cannot have their sect prepare Fourth Grade resources for Body Refinement and Qi Refinement, allowing them to achieve simultaneous growth in Body Refinement and Qi Refinement like Li Shiming.

After resting for a day, Li Shiming continued consuming ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ for cultivation.

He had no intention of sharing this ‘Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ with his avatar Li Yuanba, as the main body was the most important.

His cultivation was skyrocketing, improving every day.

The total amount of spiritual power needed for the Late-stage Golden Core is truly enormous, making the time spent cultivating appear not too significant, but he knew clearly that in just a few dozen days, his strength had improved by at least a third.

Time flowed by day by day, and soon a year and a half had passed, Li Shiming thought he would continue cultivating until reaching the Great Elder level before emerging from seclusion.

During this time, his Silver Corpse continuously delivered refined fourth-grade spirit pills punctually, with a plethora of brain power available, though his body needed to maintain cultivation, it didn’t affect him directing the Silver Corpse to work and conduct alchemy and other tasks.

With so much time passing, he thought the matter regarding the Grotto Heaven had passed, with no unexpected events occurring.

However, things did not go as he imagined, unexpected events still occurred.

At Mountain Sea Island, the Heavenly Inquiry Sect’s base, Ancestor Luo Wei listened to Ancestor Han Xiao’s report.

After years of intelligence gathering, notably at great expense, the collected information from the six major sects and Beishu Trading Company stabilized the confirmation that the Grotto Heaven had indeed appeared.

Clearly, the Grotto Heaven didn’t fall into Elder Jin Kai’s hands, nor into those of any Nascent Soul Ancestor from Beishu Continent, but was instead seized by someone else.

The cooperative investigation between the six major sects of Beishu Continent and Skywalk Trading Company, though carried out very secretly, was still infiltrated by the Heavenly Inquiry Sect.

“Uncle Master, now we can be certain, the Grotto Heaven has a successor, we’ve investigated all Nascent Soul Ancestors, except for those in seclusion, the remaining Nascent Soul Ancestors show no abnormal behavior.

Additionally, given the qualifications of these Nascent Soul Ancestors, it’s impossible for them to pass the Grotto Heaven’s test which even Elder Jin Kai couldn’t pass, if there are no outside Nascent Soul Ancestors in Beishu Continent, I believe it should be a Golden Core cultivator of exceptional talent who passed the test and gained the inheritance rights of the Grotto Heaven!” Ancestor Han Xiao said in a deep voice.

His investigative work was exceptionally difficult, luckily the sect cultivated a batch of excellent intelligence personnel, making significant progress over the years.

This allowed him to make such an analysis, which is almost very close to the truth.

“Golden Core cultivators of exceptional talent, Beishu Continent combined with Skywalk Trading Company, there aren’t many, are there?” Ancestor Luo Wei said casually.

“Indeed, initially Skywalk Trading Company had three top Great Elders arrive, one was confirmed killed, the other two disappeared, perhaps it’s one of those two!” Ancestor Han Xiao nodded and said.

“No, we must also consider Li Yuanba and the Alchemy Master Li Shiming of Beishu Continent, they advanced to the Late-stage Golden Core at fifty years old, here in the resource-poor Beishu Continent, let alone Li Yuanba who even slew a Sword Cultivation Great Elder from Skywalk Trading Company, don’t underestimate the talent of these two Golden Core cultivators!” Ancestor Luo Wei shook his head and added.

“Uncle Master, it’s difficult for us to investigate further, the two missing Great Elders from Skywalk Trading Company, Beishu Continent and Skywalk Trading Company have been pursuing them for a long time with no results, Li Yuanba has long been in seclusion avoiding outsiders, and meeting Li Shiming is even harder, without the nod from the two Nascent Soul Ancestors from Shushan Sect, outsiders cannot approach Li Shiming’s residence.” Ancestor Han Xiao said helplessly.
