Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1132: Chapter 612: Divine Skills

At first, this force field was only within a meter of his body, but it quickly began to expand outwards.

He finally understood why the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine skill of the Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioner from the White Emperor Sect could only immobilize the Fourth Grade Top Cone-shaped Magical Treasure when it got close.

That’s because every meter the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ expands, it requires a massive amount of calculations, and one must constantly control the force field of the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’.

Li Shiming expanded his ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ from one meter to one hundred meters, and then to three hundred meters, before stopping.

It wasn’t that he reached his limit, but the calculation power of a single IBMz15 CPU had reached its limit. He could continue to expand the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’, but it would require more CPUs.

Currently, it’s unnecessary, as the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ in the Nascent Soul Stage can only exert effects on the metal attribute and also have some binding effect on a cultivator’s body.

Three hundred meters is sufficient for the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ to showcase its effects.

Li Shiming’s Earth Thunder Nascent Soul consciousness connected with his avatar, Li Yuanba, at the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion in the Central State Continent, as the divine power rune of ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ within the Earth Thunder Nascent Soul glowed faintly.

A new rune appeared on the rune short sword within Li Yuanba’s body, precisely the divine power rune of ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’.

Li Shiming and Li Yuanba were originally of one being, sharing the divine power rune from the main body to the avatar through their mysterious connection.

Unfortunately, Li Yuanba is not an Earth Element cultivator, so even if he mastered the divine power rune of ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’, he could only form an ‘invisible magnetic force’ five meters around himself.

This has nothing to do with Li Yuanba’s spirit or calculation power, but five meters of ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ is the maximum power the divine power rune can exert; beyond five meters requires enhancement by Earth Element spiritual power.

In fact, to pass the inheritance test of the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power, the prerequisite is that the cultivator must be of the Earth Element. No one would have thought that a metal attribute sword cultivator would master ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ through such means.

Li Shiming also discovered another use of the stone ring, the inheritance item for the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power; the core crystal was indeed solidified ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ by a great power.

To enhance the power of the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power, one can draw on the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ energy inside the core crystal of the stone ring.

Combined with the twelve jade plaques he obtained on the battlefield, he could set up a ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power restriction.

Divine power restrictions differ from formations, but also have similarities.

Divine power restrictions are somewhat like formations, though formations use flags or other bases to create nodes, laying out the formation in accordance with its rules, while divine power restrictions use divine powers as nodes to amplify their potency to achieve specific effects.

Li Shiming felt helpless; although he knew the layout method of the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power restriction, he dared not take out either the stone ring or the twelve ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ jade plaques from the computer room space.

After several tens of days of closed-door cultivation, he mastered the ‘Invisible Primordial Magnetism’ divine power.

During this period, the cultivation world on the Dongqi Continent became peaceful. The conflict between the Ten Thousand Beast Sect and the Sun Concealing Sect ended with the Sun Concealing Sect retreating to its sect.

Li Shiming had no intention of leaving seclusion; he continued to take on alchemy tasks from the Central State Commerce and the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, but it didn’t affect his closed-door cultivation.

He began reading Wang Yuan’s cultivation insights; he did not know Wang Yuan’s background, but judging from the cultivation insights Wang Yuan recorded, the cultivator who taught Wang Yuan must have had an astonishingly high level.

Li Shiming’s situation was somewhat unique; his primary cultivation technique was the ‘Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique’, with concurrent cultivation in ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’, and he inexplicably practiced the ‘Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’.

For a normal cultivator, any of these three cultivation techniques would require a huge amount of time to elevate; it would be better to specialize in one of them.

But he was different. Within him was the ‘Five Elements Qi Absorption Array’ he inadvertently created. The five Nascent Souls within him would have their spiritual power automatically balanced by the ‘Five Elements Qi Absorption Array’, regardless of which Nascent Soul cultivated which technique.

In other words, the thunder spiritual power cultivated by the Wood Thunder Nascent Soul through the ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’ would automatically convert to Five Elements Thunder spiritual power distributed evenly among the five Nascent Souls.

Of course, there is also a fatal flaw, which is that the cultivation resources originally sufficient for one cultivator are only considered one-fifth for him.

The ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ obtained by Li Shiming would be adequate for a Nascent Soul Early Stage Thunder Cultivator to advance to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage and continue using for some time.

So even if his cultivation needs increased fivefold, the available ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ was still enough for him to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

However, he did not immediately use the ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ but instead consolidated his own ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’.

Speaking of the ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’, even though he cultivated this inheritance technique of the Yuqing Sect, it included some cultivation insights, but these were not passed down from the Yuqing Sect but rather summarized by the cultivator who obtained the ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’ themselves.

This had a vast disparity with the orthodox inheritance of the Yuqing Sect and had errors in many areas.

After reading Wang Yuan’s cultivation insights, Li Shiming found that the issues he encountered in his previous cultivation were resolved using his own understanding, with analysis from the IBMz15.

His and the IBMz15’s knowledge reserves on thunder cultivation techniques were too inadequate, causing inaccurate understanding and analysis.

After obtaining the orthodox cultivation insights from the Yuqing Sect transmission, his ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’ was continually solidifying its foundation.

He understood that if he used the ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ now, it would be far more wasteful than if he used it after fully comprehending Wang Yuan’s cultivation insights.

Cultivation knows no time, and he spent a rare period of tranquility.

He spent a year consolidating the foundation of his ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’.

“Thunder Body!” On this day, Li Shiming stood in the cultivation room and whispered.

This time, he was using the deepest secret technique ‘Thunder Body’ from the ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’. Even within the Yuqing Sect, few truly mastered this technique.

The ‘Thunder Body’ is considered part of the Yuqing Sect’s core transmission techniques, and there were related insights in Wang Yuan’s cultivation insights.

Li Shiming felt that the body of his Wood Thunder Nascent Soul suddenly enlarged, matching the main body’s size, blending with it.

The thunder runes within the Wood Thunder Nascent Soul were distributed throughout its body in a particular manner, connecting together.

Under the effect of the thunder runes, the main body transformed into thunder energy.

The sensation was quite wondrous; the tangible body was transformed into energy. This energized state could withstand most physical attacks and weaken the potency of energy attacks.

Having mastered the ‘Thunder Body’, Li Shiming had truly cultivated the ‘Yuqing Thunder Scripture’ to a level corresponding to his stage.

Previously, the power of his thunder cultivation mainly stemmed from continuously overcoming Heavenly Tribulations, gaining the might of heavenly thunder from them.

Now, the power of his thunder cultivation, apart from the augmentation by heavenly thunder, included authentic thunder cultivation methods, no longer merely reliant on heavenly thunder for direct attacks.

On this very day, he officially utilized the ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’.

He also announced to the outside world that he was officially entering closed-door cultivation. This time, it was different from his previous seclusion; he wouldn’t take on alchemy tasks.

Neither the Ten Thousand Beast Sect nor Central State Commerce had any objections to his retreat.

The Ten Thousand Beast Sect didn’t impose mandatory alchemy requirements on him, as his usual alchemy output far exceeded any alchemy master within the sect.

Central State Commerce said even less; he was merely a guest elder at Central State Commerce, completing one alchemy task for great cultivators per year was enough.

He had already exceeded the task for many years in advance, making him an exceptionally well-qualified guest elder.

He needed to cease alchemy because his main body required the use of ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’, leaving no time for other matters.
