Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 939: Chapter 516: Gathering

The gathering was indeed very casual. All the Nascent Soul cultivators were at a similar level, and they mostly discussed issues encountered during cultivation. Those who had answers would provide solutions.

Li Shiming was witnessing such interactions among cultivators for the first time. Although there were gatherings of cultivators on the Beishu Continent, they mostly involved trade, and even exchange of experiences wouldn’t be so direct.

The Nascent Soul cultivators had a sense of mutual assistance for collective improvement, rather than being secretive individually.

He also understood that the primary reason for this situation was that the number of Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect was quite large, so there wasn’t much fierce competition for resources. The goal for Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners was to advance to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Moreover, all the Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners here belonged to the Feng lineage, which made their relationships even closer than those within the sect.

He sat aside, listening to the discussions of the Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners, and gained quite a lot.

”Master Li, are you now able to refine Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills?” When it came to Jiang Hong’s turn to speak, he asked Li Shiming.

”Master Jiang, you know that I don’t have any orders for Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pill, so I haven’t practiced yet!” Li Shiming shrugged helplessly.

He had only advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage not long ago and was still refining Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills.

The Fourth Grade Spiritual Medicine required for the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Elixir Recipe exceeded one type, greatly increasing the difficulty of refining.

”The sect can provide you with three sets of materials for Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pill to practice, and the Feng lineage can also provide one set. Even if all four sets of materials fail, don’t worry too much. Once you accumulate enough contribution points, you can continue to apply for materials from the sect to practice!” Master Jiang Hong said with a smile.

He actually knew that Li Shiming had not refined the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pill. Without showing the ability to refine it, no one would dare to hand him materials privately.

”Thank you, Master Jiang!” Li Shiming said with a look of pleasant surprise.

He didn’t need practice. Even though the difficulty of refining Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills had increased significantly, he was confident he wouldn’t fail.

He had simulated the refining process of Nascent Soul Middle Late Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills through his original artifact IBMz15, and had a strong grasp over them. Not to mention in the workshop space, where the extreme controllability ensured no mistakes during the alchemy process.

After advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage, the control in the workshop space increased, reaching a precision of 5 nanometers.

He also found that at such a level of control, further improvement was already very difficult; even a one-nanometer advancement was a huge step forward.

He only managed to go from 10 nanometers to 5 nanometers by breaking through a major realm.

With a control level of 5 nanometers in refining Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, any mistake would be detected and resolved in the budding state.

With the four sets of materials for Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pill, he could demonstrate his alchemy skills to the sect, thereby receiving orders for Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills.

The reward for refining Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills was far higher than that for Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills. If he could demonstrate a guarantee of Intermediate Quality, the reward would be higher than that of other Alchemy Masters.

Currently, he was short of many resources and needed to acquire them through alchemy rewards.

”I know that four sets of materials for practice are really few, but we all went through this. If not, you can owe materials to the sect on credit. With your alchemy skills, repaying them is an easy task!” Master Jiang Hong said with a smile.

”Master Li, when you can refine Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, please do not reject our spirit pills. Don’t be like Master Jiang, who only focuses on orders for Nascent Soul Middle Late Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills!” Feng Lanxin interjected with a laugh.

Her words resonated with other Nascent Soul cultivators, who deeply trusted Li Shiming’s alchemy skills and felt at ease handing materials to him.

If Li Shiming didn’t take orders for Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, it would affect their future cultivation.

Why was Li Shiming invited to this private gathering right after advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage?

Don’t underestimate such private gatherings. They have great cohesion, and the influence of a group formed by more than a dozen Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioners is significant both within the Feng lineage and the sect.

If there are tasks requiring joint efforts from multiple Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators, the Nascent Soul cultivators in this circle would be trustworthy partners.

To join such circles usually requires long-term observation and consent from all circle members.

Li Shiming was special; his alchemy skills led the Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators in the circle to want to build deeper friendships with him.

An Alchemy Master’s energy is limited. Refining Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills takes tens of days in one furnace, consuming increased energy. Only the enhanced physique of a Nascent Soul Stage Alchemy Master allows for persistence.

The reward for refining Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills is many times higher than that for Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, and nearly all Alchemy Masters would not consider refining Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills once they could refine Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills.

”Regardless of whether I can refine Nascent Soul Middle Stage Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, I will still refine spirit pills for everyone present!” Li Shiming assured with a smile.
