Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1319: Chapter 706: Cultivation

Great Cultivator Luo Pei returned to the temporary abode on the island, bringing back all the war trophies, which he transferred to Li Shiming.

The space of the ’Heavenly Human Dao’ main hall was not small, and Li Shiming placed both the Treasure Pavilion and the Book Collection Pavilion out, occupying only a small part of the hall.

In fact, both the Treasure Pavilion and the Book Collection Pavilion have their own self-contained spaces inside, with an actual area far exceeding what is shown outside.

Li Shiming’s Divine Sense reached into the Treasure Pavilion, and he frowned slightly, finding that there was a master recognition spirit mark at the core of the Treasure Pavilion.

Moreover, this was a Great Cultivator’s recognition spirit mark, making it not an easy task to dispel.

As he pondered this, he suddenly couldn’t help but laugh.

To deal with a Great Cultivator’s spirit mark, he indeed needed a long time to resolve it.

But leaving it to the most adept Heavenly Ghost, with its spiritual talents, even a Great Cultivator’s recognition spirit mark was not much of an issue.

With this thought, he had a slight mental movement, and outside, Great Cultivator Luo Pei’s eyes became unfocused, his Nascent Soul equally dazed, as the Heavenly Ghost flew out of Luo Pei’s body and entered the Grotto Heaven through the open space entrance.

The Heavenly Ghost, having received Li Shiming’s order, upon entering the ’Heavenly Human Dao’ main hall space, flew directly towards the Treasure Pavilion.

The Treasure Pavilion clearly wanted to resist the Heavenly Ghost’s infiltration, but being too far from its master, it couldn’t receive any assistance, and with Li Shiming, who was extremely skilled in array runes, assisting, the Heavenly Ghost quickly entered the core area of the Treasure Pavilion.

The way the Heavenly Ghost dealt with the Great Cultivator’s recognition spirit mark was very simple, swallowing it down in one gulp.

After the Heavenly Ghost devoured the Great Cultivator’s recognition spirit mark, it let out a slight burp.

Li Shiming issued another command, and without hesitation, the Heavenly Ghost flew towards the Book Collection Pavilion.

Using the same method, the Heavenly Ghost devoured the Great Cultivator’s recognition spirit mark within the Book Collection Pavilion as well.

Far away, as he neared the Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate, Great Cultivator Mao Jing spat out another mouthful of blood; this was not due to frustration, but the result of the recognition spirit mark being broken.

”Senior Brother!” Great Cultivator Hu Shiming hurried over with concern.

Great Cultivator Mao Jing gestured that he was fine, understanding what had happened: the recognition spirit mark in the Treasure Pavilion had been broken.

At this moment, he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Great Cultivator Hu Shiming was stunned; for Mao Jing to be spitting blood continuously, it indicated a major incident.

”The Treasure Pavilion and Book Collection Pavilion, Luo Pei, I will not spare you!” Great Cultivator Mao Jing said in a voice deeply suppressed to the extreme, face pale.

Although he had previously heard reports from sect cultivators that the Treasure Pavilion and Book Collection Pavilion were stolen, as long as the internal recognition spirit marks were intact, even if Great Cultivator Luo Pei extracted Spiritual Objects and jade scrolls from them, it would be superficial.

One shouldn’t assume that a sect that had fallen from a superpower would have only superficial resources.

And within the Fuliu Sect’s mountain gate, the safest place was the Treasure Pavilion and Book Collection Pavilion located in the Yimu Cave Heaven.

The Treasure Pavilion and Book Collection Pavilion were usually guarded by powerful Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners, and there was never a shortage of Great Cultivators overseeing the Yimu Cave Heaven.

Yet he never anticipated that after he and Great Cultivator Hu Shiming had just left for a short time, Yimu Cave Heaven would be invaded by Great Cultivator Luo Pei.

Li Shiming was unaware of what was happening on Great Cultivator Mao Jing and Great Cultivator Hu Shiming’s side; he was at this point casting the Master Recognition Technique, with two Master Recognition Techniques falling respectively into the core of the Treasure Pavilion and the Book Collection Pavilion.

After recognition, he received feedback information from the Treasure Pavilion and Book Collection Pavilion.

”So this is the true foundation of the Fuliu Sect!” he murmured to himself.

Within the Treasure Pavilion, on the surface, there were only two fourth-grade top materials taken from Fourth-Grade Upper Stage Spiritual Beasts, and one earth-element fourth-grade top material.

But this was far from the true foundation of the Fuliu Sect; Li Shiming suspected that even Great Cultivator Hu Shiming didn’t know the true foundation of the Treasure Pavilion.

Besides the apparent treasure space in the Treasure Pavilion, there was a hidden space containing eight sets of fourth-grade top materials and one magical artifact.

Among the eight sets of fourth-grade top materials, half were wood element, and the rest were metal, water, fire, and earth, each having one, evidently preserved intentionally.

As for the magical artifact, it was a spiritual branch inserted in a bottle; if it wasn’t for the unique aura of a magical artifact on the branch, Li Shiming wouldn’t have recognized it as such.

This was very different from what he thought a magical artifact would be; it showed few signs of human crafting, suggesting it was likely a naturally formed branch cut down and turned into its current state.

Being an Artifact Refining Master himself, with quite high skill and equipped with ’Divine Vision,’ allowing him to see details that other Artifact Refining Masters couldn’t, he scrutinized it closely.

On the spiritual branch, there was a wood element rule imprint; he did not recognize this magical artifact, nor did he understand its Artifact Spirit.

He possessed many treasures, and this magical artifact had not been recognized by any Great Cultivator in the Fuliu Sect; he didn’t know the reason behind this, nor whether there was any inherent danger.

In any case, the magical artifact was already in his hands, and he had time to study it slowly; he could choose to recognize it whenever he wished.

The unexpected gain of a magical artifact and eleven sets of fourth-grade top materials constituted a wealth unimaginable on their own.
