Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 847: Chapter 470: Decision

Li Yuanba returned to the temporary grotto heaven, sitting beside his original self Li Shiming, and began to take stock of this harvest.

Li Shiming kept his eyes closed, ignoring the return of his incarnation.

For him, the most important thing now is cultivation, using the ’Reach Profound Kun Earth Immortal Dew’ to steadily enhance his cultivation level.

Although the Beishu Continent is barren, figures like Senluo Sect’s Elder Li, Nascent Soul cultivators, are far from poor.

This barrenness refers to the cultivation resources, while the furnishings of his grotto heaven are far from barren, as many of these Spiritual Objects are inherited from the sect.

Accumulated through tens of thousands of years, forming the lineage of inherited Spiritual Objects, along with items he acquired from other places, are all placed in his grotto heaven.

Li Yuanba took them all at once, all becoming part of Li Yuanba’s collection.

First was the decor of the grotto heaven, third-grade floor tiles, and wall tiles, which could be entirely used when he needed to arrange his grotto heaven.

Even though the original self Li Shiming is quite wealthy, Li Shiming’s accumulation time was still too short. Perhaps after hundreds of years of accumulation, it might compare with Elder Li’s heritage.

Of course, that’s without inheriting the Grotto Heaven. Once it is inherited, Li Shiming will have the capability to match his wealth with any Nascent Soul Ancestor.

Various third-grade living implements happened to be for Li Yuanba’s own use, as Li Shiming already has a complete set.

The most noteworthy was a fourth-grade cushion, upon examination with his Divine Thought, he discovered it was a fourth-grade rare item, enhancing cultivation effectiveness.

Though the enhancement is not exceptionally strong, the cushion is used long-term, providing an absolute additional cultivation boost.

Crucially, the fourth-grade cushion is not a magical treasure, doesn’t require recognition, and can be used by Golden Core cultivators.

This fourth-grade cushion was placed beneath the original self Li Shiming, replacing the previous third-grade cushion.

In Elder Li’s warehouse, collections included various third and fourth-grade magical treasures and some consumable fourth-grade Spiritual Objects.

Most third and fourth-grade magical treasures may be his loot, some were damaged, and some were his life-bound magical treasures, making them not very practical.

Nevertheless, the consumable fourth-grade Spiritual Objects caught his attention. Aside from several fourth-grade Spirit Fruit and fourth-grade Spirit Pill, a set of fourth-grade Corpse Refining resources was an unexpected delight.

Li Yuanba cleared Elder Li’s grotto heaven, destroyed his mountain peak, primarily not for Spiritual Objects.

Though the acquired Spiritual Objects, the fourth-grade cushion and fourth-grade Corpse Refining resources had some usefulness, compared to his risks, this harvest was truly not much.

His main motive was revenge, as this related to his cultivation mindset.

Li Shiming and Li Yuanba cultivated in the seafloor grotto heaven for two years, during which they did not leave the grotto heaven, essentially breaking contact with the outside.

The reason for ’essentially’ is due to the drone satellite system, allowing Li Shiming to still observe some movements on the Beishu Continent.

It’s unknown how the Beishu Continent and external forces negotiated, but now the Nascent Soul Ancestors of Skywalk Trading Company and Heavenly Inquiry Sect moved from the sea island to the land, occupying a spiritual energy-rich mountain range.

As seen, over several years, Skywalk Trading Company and Heavenly Inquiry Sect did not give up as imagined by Li Shiming, but took root instead.

And the six sects deployed all their forces, continually searching the Beishu Continent.

This is visible from the drone satellite system. Comparing with the concurrent data of life-bound magical treasure IBMz15, the exploration numbers and time spent outside by Beishu Continent cultivators increased more than tenfold from earlier days.

Li Shiming originally intended to make plans after Skywalk Trading Company and Heavenly Inquiry Sect left, but his idea fell through.

He decided not to wait anymore, having made up his mind.

His strength reached the Great Elder level, this is truly a Golden Core Great Elder, coupled with Body Refining Grand Elder, he stands at the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage.

Now what he needs to wait for is insight, relatively speaking, his accumulation is somewhat lacking, needing to enhance continuously his research on cultivation technique, realizing a deeper meaning of his Spiritual Power Pattern.

This is not easy; many Great Elders get stuck at this level for hundreds of years.

Li Shiming needs experience; this cannot be achieved by mere secluded cultivation.

However, the Beishu Continent does not have an environment for him to gain experience, as long as he appears, he will be pursued by the six sects, Skywalk Trading Company, and Heavenly Inquiry Sect.

Consider that Heavenly Inquiry Sect and Skywalk Trading Company, to find him, even willing to stay long-term on the barren Beishu Continent, he doesn’t want to stay on Beishu Continent anymore.

Despite reluctance, he plans to leave.

Of course, leaving the Beishu Continent is not on a whim; he thoroughly prepared.

Venerable Huijing finally able to deploy Nascent Soul Dharma Form was the confidence Li Shiming relied upon to leave the Beishu Continent.

Having cultivated ’Liu Yan Erosion Sun Skill’, though Venerable Huijing’s combat strength wasn’t exceptionally powerful, in Li Shiming’s opinion, had the ability to fight Elder Zuo and Ancestor Lu.

This doesn’t mean Venerable Huijing could defeat them, but Venerable Huijing could engage in battle, with the greatest weakness being the fourth-grade magical treasure.

Venerable Huijing’s life-bound magical treasure Four-Grade Treasure Appearance Ruyi Buddha Beads, due to the cultivation technique switch to ’Liu Yan Erosion Sun Skill’, the effect drastically diminished.

Instead, Li Shiming provided the fourth-grade Leaving Fire Sword and fourth-grade Protective Armor to Venerable Huijing, granting him a certain combat capability.
