Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1175: Chapter 634: Trap

Li Shiming thought the Yuqing Sect would come looking for him, but to his surprise, a month had passed and the Yuqing Sect had not shown any intentions of doing so.

In terms of intelligence, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, being native here, is quite strong. If the Yuqing Sect truly started investigating Li Shiming, the intelligence department of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect would catch some hints, more or less.

Li Shiming was unaware that having used Living Dead Zhao Qingfeng with the ’Thunderous Mysterious Bow’ to shoot Wu Zicang was considered by Great Cultivator Duan Zhang as an act of the ’Sun-Shooting Sect’.

The investigation direction was completely wrong, plus with the presence of the Great Cultivator, it cleared him of the suspicion of killing Feng Qian.

Li Shiming spent this month in true isolation, his abode being sealed off with a great formation, completely severed from the outside world.

He sat cross-legged in the Cultivation Room, immersing his mind in the Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique of the Five Elements. Previously, due to insufficient realm, even though his Five Elements realization at Taichu Sect’s Tao hearing reached near Great Cultivator’s level, he was unable to convert this realization into a personal understanding because the realm had not reached.

Now, all he does is continuously perceive the Five Elements, to elevate his understanding of the Five Elements to the level of Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Before consuming the Nascent Soul Early Stage Fourth Grade Breaking Realm Pill, he only thought about constantly seeking opportunities for advancement.

Now, he no longer considers the matter of advancement opportunities, mainly because of the enmity formed with the Yuqing Sect, unable to venture outside, he can only remain within the gate of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

In such circumstances, the possibility of him obtaining advancement opportunities is very low.

No matter, even if he doesn’t find advancement opportunities, after several years of accumulation, he can also break through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Rather, why not use these years to further solidify his foundation.

Inside him, five Nascent Souls are each cultivating the Five Elements Skills within the Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique, continually elevating their comprehension of the Five Elements alongside his understanding.

The conflict between the Yuqing Sect and the Four Native Sects is increasingly intensifying, with frequent fall of Nascent Soul cultivators from the Four Native Sects, whereas Nascent Soul Thunder Cultivators from the Yuqing Sect are occasionally ambushed and fall, the clashes are growing more fierce.

The Huijiang Mountain Range, the Liu Guang Temple on the mountain is a branch temple of the Lianhua Temple, and is also one of the few resource points producing Great Cultivator resources on the Dongqi Continent.

Liu Guang Temple is routinely guarded by three Mid-stage Venerables; such protective power is adequate under normal circumstances on the Dongqi Continent.

This night, twenty-one streaks of lightning rapidly flickered in the dark, appearing exceptionally eerie.

The twenty-one streaks of lightning are the twenty-one Nascent Soul Thunder Cultivators from the Yuqing Sect, among whom are five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Thunder Cultivators.

”Ahead lies Liu Guang Temple!” Peng Bin gazed at the massive temple on the mountain top in the dark, and said to Qin Rui beside him.

He and Qin Rui were both Nascent Soul Middle Stage Thunder Cultivators from the Yuqing Sect, and also the commanders of this mission.

”The Forget River Jade Lotus will mature tomorrow morning, and you say this Liu Guang Temple’s protective formation can hold for thirty minutes?” Qin Rui said with a smile.

The Forget River Jade Lotus is exactly the Great Cultivator resource guarded by Liu Guang Temple, maturing once every three hundred years, producing twelve Forget River Jade Lotus Seeds, which are the primary ingredient for refining Fourth Grade Cultivation Assistance Spirit Pills for Great Cultivators.

Through certain connections, the Yuqing Sect obtained this intelligence.

Intending to increase its assault frequency on a resource point far from Liu Guang Temple, the Yuqing Sect secretly mobilized as many Thunder Cultivators as possible to Liu Guang Temple.

The twelve Forget River Jade Lotus Seeds greatly tempted both Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang.

After reaching the level of Great Cultivator, even within the Yuqing Sect such a superpower, Great Cultivator resources are extremely precious.

No Great Cultivator came from the Yuqing Sect, primarily because the Yuqing Sect only has two Great Cultivators on the Dongqi Continent, and any movement by them would be detected.

The two Great Cultivators can stabilize the focus of the Four Native Sects; in their opinion, with five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Thunder Cultivators plus sixteen Nascent Soul Early Stage Thunder Cultivators, such combat power makes destroying Liu Guang Temple a piece of cake.

”Master Duan and Junior Master Wang only wanted the Forget River Jade Lotus Seeds, so the Forget River Jade Lotus itself can be ours. Once we succeed, we can discuss the distribution problem then!” Peng Bin seemed to foresee the fortune from the temple, and said with a smile.

Though severing the Forget River Jade Lotus itself is equivalent to digging out the root of this Great Cultivator resource, the Forget River Jade Lotus itself is also top-grade Fourth-grade Refining Material, hence taking the Forget River Jade Lotus itself merely further offends Lianhua Temple.

There’s no need to worry about being deemed as destroying a resource point by the Cultivation World, as the Forget River Jade Lotus is both a resource and a refining material, acquiring refining material cannot be considered as destroying a resource point.

”When the time comes, whichever brothers want the Forget River Jade Lotus itself, they can compensate the other brothers. If no one wants the Forget River Jade Lotus itself, we’ll sell it and split the proceeds!” Qin Rui, quite interested now, proposed before even obtaining it.

”Alright!” The other three Nascent Soul Middle Stage Thunder Cultivators who came along all agreed with smiles.

Although the mission is commanded by Peng Bin and Qin Rui, the three accompanying Nascent Soul Middle Stage Thunder Cultivators also have the right to share in the benefits, Qin Rui’s distribution plan aligns with their interests.

Only the sixteen Nascent Soul Early Stage Thunder Cultivators do not have the authority to participate in the distribution of benefits, but can only hope to search other parts of Liu Guang Temple for resources once it is broken.

”Proceed according to the plan!” Peng Bin gave the command once the team reached a certain distance from Liu Guang Temple.
