Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1617: Chapter 855: Mission

Over a long period, many resource points for great cultivators have exposed their locations.

Previously, due to stability reasons, various forces did not want to incite war and had a set of allocation principles for the great cultivator resource points.

However, Li Shiming publicly accepted alchemy commissions, shattering the previous balance.

At almost every great cultivator resource point’s maturity, many great cultivators would make a move to seize them.

No great cultivator would destroy a great cultivator resource point; that would make them and all powers a public enemy. But taking the mature resources of a great cultivator is not a problem.

Thirty years ago, such resource grabbing was done secretly.

A few great cultivators would unite and, at the maturity of the great cultivator resource point’s resources, launch a surprise attack to seize the great cultivator resources.

As the value of great cultivator spiritual medicine continued to rise, more and more great cultivators participated in this kind of seizing.

Eventually, even super forces, using their intelligence advantage, joined this open resource grabbing war.

All forces maintained an understanding that with sufficient strength, they could seize great cultivator resources without escalating into full-scale war.

In fact, no force dared to go to war over stolen great cultivator resources, as too many forces were involved in seizing them.

Thirty years later, this chaotic situation reached an extreme. Even if a super force’s resource point’s location and maturity time were exposed, many great cultivators would target it.

In today’s cultivation world, it can be said it is the era with the most active great cultivators in a thousand years. Great cultivators previously in retreat or traveling have all been recalled by their forces to join this frenzied resource-grabbing.

Li Yuanba looked at one task after another; these tasks are recent resource points with exposed locations and near maturity times needing great cultivators to go participate in the grabbing.

These great cultivator resource points are not just on the Central State Continent, but spread across all known continents.

No wonder Jian Wuwei previously said the pavilion’s great cultivators lacked combat capability; this is the reason.

Truly, if the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s sword cultivator great cultivators participated in every resource point grab, even releasing all sword cultivator great cultivators wouldn’t be enough to traverse all the continents.

Li Yuanba had no intention of leaving the Central State Continent; he had many enemies. Leaving the Central State Continent and losing Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s influence made it unpredictable whether enemies would find him.

Li Yuanba selected a task at an Infinite Sect resource point, knowing Infinite Sect also couldn’t stop numerous great cultivators from seizing their resource points.

Not long after choosing the task, detailed information about that resource point was sent to his Identity Jade Disc, along with a list of potential great cultivators participating in the grab.

This is the advantage of choosing a task on the Central State Continent; the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s intelligence department can obtain more accurate information here.

There’s still seven days until the next batch of resources matures at this Infinite Sect great cultivator resource point, so there’s no hurry with the time; he can arrive even at a slow pace.

He checked his magical weapon; after rising to the great cultivator, his Lifebound Flying Sword Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword’s power significantly increased.

A spirit treasure requires a true expert to unleash its full potential, and now he can only exert part of its power.

The ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’s power also improved; the energy-converted flying sword within hasn’t changed much, but the greatest power change is in the strengthened gravity field by the ’Gravity Gold Brick.’

In his Great Cultivator Realm, he can utilize the ’Gravity Gold Brick’s more potent power, releasing a gravity field that can greatly affect early-stage great cultivators and slow down middle-stage great cultivators.

As for the performance of the two spirit treasures in battle, it still needs observation through battle.

After leaving Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, Li Yuanba displayed ’Divine Foot Skill.’ Although his inner Spiritual Power Pattern couldn’t be extravagantly sustained for long in ’Divine Foot Skill,’ he could use it as a regular method for short-distance travel.

Each space move covers eight thousand miles, a speed exceeding known great cultivator flight speeds in the cultivation world, offering him an additional layer of security.

When his Nascent Soul Middle Stage’s Divine Foot Skill was used, although fast, each ’Instant Limbo’ cast had an interval, which became the biggest flaw against powerful enemies.

Now it is different; one move of eight thousand miles with surplus energy allows him to freely leave the battlefield.

He took out a mirror and tapped on it a few times.

This mirror is a receiving device capable of receiving signals from drone satellites.

Although decades have passed, the drone satellite system above the Central State Continent has been unmanaged, the upgraded drone satellites can remain airborne for a hundred years.

This batch of drone satellites can still maintain their working status.

Since Li Shiming himself is not on the Central State Continent, the IBMz15 is beyond its range, unable to contact the drone satellite system over the Central State Continent.
