Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1178: Chapter 635: The Plan (Part 2)

”All Nascent Soul cultivators enter the sect formation and follow the guidance on the Identity Jade Disc to the formation nodes!” Master Ding’s voice echoed through the sect to all the cultivators.

Li Shiming checked his Identity Jade Disc and found it did not specify for him to enter any formation node.

”Shizhen, come here immediately!” Second Senior Brother Yue Shan sent a message.

Li Shiming flew towards the location sent by Second Senior Brother Yue Shan, and soon he saw Yue Shan, Lu Heng, and the now late-stage Golden Core First Senior Brother Zhong Qiang.

Seeing Zhong Qiang had already advanced to the late-stage Golden Core, Li Shiming was not particularly surprised.

The reason for Zhong Qiang’s rapid advancement to the late-stage Golden Core is not only due to the fusion of the Nascent Soul during body seizing rebirth but mainly because Li Shiming provided a large amount of high-quality Spirit Pills for cultivation.

Zhong Qiang also possesses a grotto heaven with Nascent Soul mid-level conditions, an extremely lavish cultivation environment for the Golden Core stage.

Under such conditions, if Zhong Qiang’s cultivation speed were still slow, there would be no reason to continue cultivating.

”Is the Yuqing Sect attacking?” Li Shiming inquired of Yue Shan.

This was not a random guess, as the only sect capable of threatening the mountain gate of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect on Dongqi Continent is Yuqing Sect, and they have enough reasons too.

Their capability speaks for itself, look at the Sun Concealing Sect back then, it nearly faced annihilation by two great cultivators from Yuqing and White Emperor Sect.

Another reason, he saw two great cultivators in the surveillance footage from the drone satellite system, combined with Yuqing Sect having two great cultivators on Dongqi Continent, this was an easy judgment.

”Wang He from Yuqing Sect and Duan Zhang are attacking the grotto heaven barrier on the perimeter, very soon they will be at the mountain gate!” Yue Shan explained in a transmission to Li Shiming.

He didn’t dare say it outright for fear of causing internal chaos within the mountain gate among other cultivators.

Before Li Shiming could ask more, he felt the space suddenly change; he could sense that the space was no longer the previous one, but connected directly with the greater world.

He knew it was the grotto heaven barrier being broken and the mountain gate of Ten Thousand Beast Sect exposed to the greater world.

He could even see inside the mountain gate through the drone satellite system monitoring, though not comprehensively, many places within the mountain gate were protected by powerful formations, some obscuring the view of the drone satellite system.

”Little Junior Brother, Master has sent orders to you, if the sect formation cannot hold, you must immediately take this and enter the underground passage!” Yue Shan handed Li Shiming a jade tablet and said solemnly.

This was just in case; Ten Thousand Beast Sect needed to send its important seeds away.

Although Li Shiming had reached the Nascent Soul early stage, he was still a vital seed.

Whether it was his Red Gold Phoenix, his cultivation speed, or his alchemy skill, all made him a prime protection target for the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

If the mountain gate were truly breached, then with Li Shiming there, the sect’s seeds could be better cared for, facilitating their growth.

Li Shiming accepted the jade tablet, understanding Grandmaster Hu’s intent, to give him a chance to survive.

”Can we hold them off?” Li Shiming asked Yue Shan.

He was far less familiar with the sect’s true fighting strength compared to Yue Shan, who had been in Ten Thousand Beast Sect for a long time and knew more about the situation.

”Difficult! Better prepare for the worst!” Yue Shan said with a look of helplessness.

Li Shiming’s heart sank, but he soon thought of Grandmaster Li from Luanyang Palace, hadn’t she come to assist in defending the mountain gate of Ten Thousand Beast Sect?

”Where is the Master?” Li Shiming continued to ask.

”The Master will arrive soon!” Yue Shan suppressed his inner doubts and replied.

In fact, he didn’t know either; he even suspected that the Master, Grandmaster Hu might be planning to leave, but thinking about it further, it seemed impossible, as Grandmaster Hu wasn’t that kind of person.

Li Shiming wanted to say something more, but a terrifying pressure came, even weakened by the sect formation, it still gave him a sense of unease.

He looked outside the mountain gate and saw Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang had taken out the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’, apparently preparing for a full-force attack on the sect formation.

A phoenix’s cry sounded, followed by Li Shiming seeing Grandmaster Li, who was now seated atop a Red Gold Phoenix.

The aura of that Red Gold Phoenix was extremely terrifying, reaching the fourth-grade high-stage level.

This Red Gold Phoenix was equivalent to the combat power of a great cultivator, combined with its racial talent, no great cultivator would dare underestimate it.

Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang, who were preparing to attack Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s mountain gate and destroy the sect formation, sensed the terrifying aura and couldn’t help but look towards the Red Gold Phoenix.

Upon seeing the cultivator atop the Red Gold Phoenix, their eyes narrowed, clearly recognizing Grandmaster Li.

”I never expected Luanyang Palace to send Mr. Li; the rumor that Ten Thousand Beast Sect is a branch of Luanyang Palace seems true!” Great Cultivator Duan Zhang said solemnly upon seeing Grandmaster Li.

”Mr. Wang, Mr. Duan, let’s go fight up in the sky; if you win, I’ll leave; if you lose, then leave Ten Thousand Beast Sect!” Grandmaster Li pointed towards the sky and said calmly.

”Mr. Li, today you’re standing up for Ten Thousand Beast Sect; originally, we didn’t want to face you two against one. But you’re forcing our hand!” Great Cultivator Duan Zhang said solemnly.

He didn’t consider himself invincible just because he was a Thunder Cultivator.

Opposite him, Grandmaster Li’s realm was similar to theirs, and the Red Gold Phoenix counts as a top-tier Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator; together, their combat power exceeded that of cultivators of the same realm.

”Let’s begin!” Grandmaster Li lightly patted the Red Gold Phoenix and said.

Li Shiming knew that Grandmaster Li had invited Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang to battle in the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Fighting at the mountain gate of Ten Thousand Beast Sect would definitely have extremely adverse effects on the mountain gate.

The Red Gold Phoenix carried Grandmaster Li and flew to the sky; Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang exchanged glances, both with a look of helplessness in their eyes.

Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang could only follow; Luanyang Palace was also a superpower and indeed the most formidable superpower.

Among reasons is Luanyang Palace’s status as a superpower, and also the fact that it’s filled with female cultivators, just the admirers of these female cultivators are enough to deter any sect attempting anything against Luanyang Palace.

Today, with Grandmaster Li present, Master Wang He and Great Cultivator Duan Zhang couldn’t go all out.

Master Wang He contemplated resolving the issue quickly, staying close.

Once Grandmaster Li entered the Thirty-Three Heavens, he immediately followed.

The Thirty-Three Heavens is separated from the space below by an invisible barrier; this barrier not only blocks the fierce winds of the Thirty-Three Heavens from descending but also slightly mutes perception of the Thirty-Three Heavens from below.

Once in the Thirty-Three Heavens, Master Wang He hadn’t stabilized his position yet when he immediately retreated, activating the Thunder Shield Skill’s protective shield.

Grandmaster Li, upon entering the Thirty-Three Heavens, activated her Nascent Soul Dharma Form, while the Red Gold Phoenix also enlarged several times, assuming the strongest combat form alongside Grandmaster Li’s Nascent Soul Dharma Form.

As soon as Master Wang He entered the Thirty-Three Heavens, he encountered the prepared Grandmaster Li and the Red Gold Phoenix.

He faced a head-on assault; the Red Gold Phoenix spewed flames imbued with a chilling aura, any cultivator caught in these flames would surely face catastrophe.

Grandmaster Li’s Nascent Soul Dharma Form bore an aura strikingly similar to that of the Red Gold Phoenix.

She appeared as a humanoid Red Gold Phoenix, her movements gentle and ethereal, almost as if dancing in the air, yet the flames she emanated carried the same chilling aura that made Master Wang He uneasy.

What terrified Master Wang He most was that Grandmaster Li’s Nascent Soul Dharma Form’s flames merged with those of the Red Gold Phoenix in the attack, exponentially increasing their might.

With the enhancement in the power of the flames, the speed of the flame’s attack naturally saw a drastic boost, transforming into a fire phoenix and rushing towards Master Wang He.
