Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1643: Chapter 868: Supreme Being

On a calm morning, Li Shiming sat cross-legged within the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven Treasure Lotus Hall, having secluded himself for over three years.

Suddenly, he felt a wave of heart palpitations; at his level, such feelings always indicated that a significant event concerning himself was imminent.

He halted his practice of the ’Heavenly Human Technique,’ and first utilized his connection with the ’Phantom Clone’ to sense any anomalies at Luanyang Palace on the Central State Continent.

Luanyang Palace showed no signs of incident; the ’Phantom Clone’ was inside Fengqi Palace, with Yin Shilan absent, but both the ’Phantom Clone’ and Yin Shilan were under the protection of Luanyang Palace’s grand formation.

As long as Luanyang Palace doesn’t intend to deal with the ’Phantom Clone’ and Yin Shilan, no cultivator in the Cultivation World would dare intrude into Luanyang Palace.

Even a Great Power wouldn’t, for Luanyang Palace is guarded by a Great Power, and if one Great Power enters near another’s grotto heaven, they would be put in a highly passive state.

Since it’s not the ’Phantom Clone’ and Yin Shilan in trouble, Li Shiming thought of his own situation.

Having ceased his practice of the ’Heavenly Human Technique,’ he flashed out of the grotto heaven and arrived within the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

At this moment, his life-bound treasure, the IBMz15, automatically connected with the drone satellite system; upon connection, it received an urgent alert from the drone satellite system.

Following this, the IBMz15 transmitted a surveillance image to him—an area of approximately a hundred meters was a blur, rapidly advancing toward the Ten Thousand Beast Sect at a speed almost comparable to his ’One Step to Reach’ technique.

Li Shiming, upon seeing the blurry area, although he had witnessed the vague shadow areas of Wang He and Yan Gao, two Peak Great Cultivators under drone satellite surveillance, paled in comparison to this blurry region at a fifth of it.

Upon seeing this blurry area, his sense of danger elevated nearly to the extreme, giving him the direct feeling of impending doom.

”Is it a Great Power?” he only considered one possibility.

But he couldn’t fathom one thing—after so long, how could a Great Power still come seeking him?

Initially, when he showcased formidable strength on the Dongqi Continent, slaying Wang He and Yan Gao, two Peak Great Cultivators, and the Half-step Great Power Yang Xing, he considered the possibility of a Great Power coming.

After many years, he thought perhaps a Great Power couldn’t traverse the oceans, leading to his relaxation.

But today, a Great Power truly came; no battle was needed—judging by the terrifying spatial impact alone, the awful power of this Great Power was clear.

”Master, I need to leave the sect!” he sent a message to Grandmaster Hu.

Without much explanation, explaining too much isn’t beneficial to Grandmaster Hu or the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

After sending the message, he activated the ’Divine Eye Skill’ and swiftly distanced himself eight thousand miles from the sect’s mountain gate.

He didn’t know if hiding within Heavenly Person Cave Heaven could prevent detection by the Great Power.

But he wouldn’t take risks; truly hiding there and being found by the Great Power, he wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.

Now possessing the Divine Foot Skill’s ’One Step to Reach,’ he at least had a chance to flee far.

”Trying to escape!” Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar was already executing the Thunder Escape technique; upon sensing spatial fluctuations, he looked toward the direction Li Shiming fled and said lightly.

Despite being an avatar, through the minute Thunder Energy lingering in the space, he could perceive intense energy changes in exceedingly remote areas.

If Li Shiming were using ordinary flight, perhaps Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar wouldn’t detect him, but the fact remained that he utilized the Divine Foot Skill’s ’One Step to Reach,’ a long-distance spatial movement divine skill expending a large amount of Spiritual Power Pattern, causing considerable spatial fluctuations.

For ordinary Great Cultivators, due to insufficient perceptive capability, their awareness of the spatial fluctuations from the Divine Foot Skill is minimal.

However, concerning Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar, Li Shiming’s execution of ’One Step to Reach’ was like igniting a torch in the dark, almost shouting, ”I’m right here!”

Great Power Luo Yuan’s sudden change in direction, pursuing Li Shiming, was noticed by Li Shiming through the drone satellite system.

Li Shiming greatly heightened his estimation of the Great Power’s ability; he believed Great Power Luo Yuan tracked him using some miraculous technique, causing him great alarm, prompting him to continuously execute ’One Step to Reach.’

Yet he was unaware that his recklessness led him to expose himself to Great Power Luo Yuan.

Truthfully, ’One Step to Reach’ is absolutely the fastest movement method in the Cultivation World, especially for Li Shiming, who possesses the ’Divine Eye Skill,’ allowing his movement distances to far exceed those cultivators proficient in the Divine Foot Skill.

With each move covering eight thousand miles, this movement distance would leave most cultivators feeling hopeless.

But the speed of Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar in executing Thunder Escape is unimaginable.

The avatar itself lacks a physical form, being merely a mass of energy, coupled with Thunder Escape at a Great Power level, ensuring its speed doesn’t fall much behind Li Shiming’s ’One Step to Reach.’

Especially when Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar fully executes Thunder Escape, it possesses a spatial effect at the Great Power level, making the avatar appear intermittently within the void.

Two silhouettes, one pursuing and one fleeing in the void, quickly left the land of the Dongqi Continent, entering the sea.

Li Shiming gazed at the sea surface, contemplating using Water Escape, as this area was truly too suitable for Water Escape.
