Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1191: Chapter 642: Journey Afar

Of course, the enhancement from the powerhouse’s blood is not limitless. Li Shiming felt that his physical cultivation should have reached the extreme of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage and, to some extent, even surpassed it.

But he had not yet reached the level of a Great Cultivator, of this he was very sure.

This was mainly because Zhao Qingfeng, the Living Dead, a Great Cultivator’s body, was present in his meditation space.

At the Great Cultivator Realm, the transformation of the body is immense, a kind of strength that touches the Heaven and Earth Rules.

At least for Li Shiming, during the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, his body was merely at its peak, without touching the Heaven and Earth Rules.

However, the blood of the Body Refining Great Power brought him more potential, potential in physical cultivation, giving him an extraordinarily solid foundation.

This foundation laid a deep basis for his future promotion to a Great Cultivator and breakthrough of the Great Cultivator Realm.

And when he truly ascends to a Great Cultivator, his body will be far stronger, surpassing other non-Body Refining Great Cultivators.

He judged this because he had never contacted a Body Refining Great Cultivator, so he couldn’t make the most precise judgment.

After absorbing the powerhouse’s blood, Li Shiming checked the state of Golden Corpse Nanming and found that it still needed some time to advance. With time to spare, he started his cultivation in the ‘Heavenly Human Dao’ hall.

He set a timer in the life-bound artifact, the IBMz15, and then had all five of his Nascent Souls cultivate the ‘Five Rhymes Qi Cultivation Technique.’

During the initial cultivation, he noticed something unusual; his cultivation speed had greatly increased.

In the past, he was considered a genius by many cultivators, with astonishing talent for cultivation, partly because he was later formed into a Pure Dao Body and partly because he used a large number of Spirit Pills.

He used the top-tier Spirit Pills he refined, as long as they aided his cultivation.

Moreover, with his ‘Hundred One-point Pill Technique,’ a furnace of pills equated to gaining two furnaces, and he only needed to hand over a small portion.

The number of Spirit Pills he used for cultivation was unimaginable for other cultivators, creating the illusion that he was a super genius.

Of course, he also had other fortuitous encounters that helped him maintain an extremely fast cultivation speed.

But anyway, with his three spirit root seeds, there were some inherent flaws in his cultivation aptitude.

Now, he felt an indescribable cultivation speed, comparable to the speed of cultivating with high-grade Spirit Pills.

“I underestimated the effect of the powerhouse’s blood!” Li Shiming lamented in his heart.

A drop of the powerhouse’s blood helped him not just on the surface, but also brought many profound changes that he would slowly discover in the future.

In the ‘Heavenly Human Dao’ hall, with ample Spiritual Energy and enhanced cultivation talent, he felt his cultivation entering a fast track again.

However, cultivation at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage is an extremely long journey. Although it enhances aptitude, it’s impossible to achieve noticeable improvement in a short time.

Unless he can obtain treasures like ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ or ‘Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid,’ it’s impossible to rapidly advance his realm.

However, both ‘Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ and ‘Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ are treasures that can be encountered but not sought, and he wouldn’t know where to obtain them.

As time passed, he concentrated on cultivation, until one day he was reminded by the life-bound artifact IBMz15, and slowly ended the cultivation method for the five Nascent Souls.

Although he only needed one Nascent Soul to operate freely, being outside the sect was not particularly safe, and he didn’t want to engage in troubles with only one Nascent Soul for combat.

The reason he dared to have all five Nascent Souls enter the cultivation state in his training was that he was in the Grotto Heaven of the Great Power Zhai Ge, where it was safest.

At least unless encountering a Mahayana realm great power, other cultivators could not discover his Grotto Heaven.

Previously in Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s mountain gate, he didn’t enter his Grotto Heaven because he was afraid of leaking its existence; now outside, he had no such concerns.

He came out of the Grotto Heaven, frowning slightly.

He sensed the Yin Cold Energy in the cave dwelling, which his body enhanced by the powerhouse’s blood allowed him to perceive more strongly.

Of course, it was merely an instinctive aversion to the Yin Cold Energy; such an amount of energy couldn’t affect him.

His Divine Sense swept over Golden Corpse Nanming, and he smiled.

Standing in the Corpse Refining Array, Golden Corpse Nanming had advanced from the Golden Corpse Early Stage to the Golden Corpse Middle Stage, with a massive shift in strength.

The realm advancement brought more than just an increase in combat power, as it became increasingly similar to a real cultivator.

The golden skin on Golden Corpse Nanming had lightened considerably; upon close observation, the golden color had moved under the skin, creating that effect.

In his connection with Golden Corpse Nanming, Li Shiming discovered it had become much smarter, with a greatly enhanced spiritual insight.
