Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1644: Chapter 868: Supreme Power_2

However, he merely thought about it and did not proceed to do so, as he was unsure of the strength of the Great Power, and whether they could discover his Water Escape from the ocean.

This feeling made him extremely uncomfortable. In the past, when dealing with any enemy, IBMz15’s analytical calculations always allowed him to gain a certain advantage.

But this time was completely different; IBMz15 lacked data on the power of a Great Power, making it incapable of delivering an accurate analysis.

Any mistake made while fleeing could potentially lead to a doomed fate.

Li Shiming discovered that after leaving the Dongqi Continent, he could no longer precisely pinpoint the position of the Great Power behind him.

There were no drone satellite systems covering the expanse above the ocean, leaving him to rely on subtle perceptions to judge how close the pursuing Great Power was.

This necessitated his full exertion of ’One Step to Heaven’, with the five Nascent Souls providing him with abundant spiritual power. However, to maintain a speed advantage, he had to continuously perform ’One Step to Heaven’, consuming a significant amount of spiritual power.

Between each use of ’One Step to Heaven’, he placed a high-level Spirit Pill in his mouth to recover his spiritual power.

But doing so was a mere drop in the bucket, not nearly enough to replenish the spiritual power consumed by ’One Step to Heaven’.

Under the current circumstances, IBMz15 calculated that he would run out of spiritual power in twenty-six hours.

He was already certain of the identity of the Great Power behind him.

The faint perception of the thunderous aura suggested that the Great Power was most likely from the Yuqing Sect.

He smiled bitterly, finally encountering cultivators of such a high level.

This was the pinnacle of the Cultivation World’s hierarchy, exemplifying how the existence of a single Great Power could elevate their faction to a superpower, thus enjoying the ultimate privilege of resource allocation within the Cultivation World.

While each superpower occupied different territories, the benefits derived from any such territory were astonishing.

”No, this can’t be the Great Power’s true form!” as he calmed down from his initial panic, Li Shiming made further assessments based on current information.

The reason being, he had seen the Sword Elder before, even witnessed the Sword Elder’s avatar, giving him a standard to evaluate the aura of a Great Power.

The Great Power pursuing him from behind, judging by their aura, was quite similar to the Sword Elder’s avatar, far from the Sword Elder’s actual form.

Moreover, through his various probes, he was aware that Great Powers couldn’t stray far from their sects.

Li Shiming did not wish to flee for twenty-six hours, only to be captured by the Great Power of the Yuqing Sect when defenseless.

A ruthless look flashed in his eyes as he mobilized forty minds, each readying the ’Thunder Cloud Skill’.

The ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ appeared in his hand. With the distance being somewhat vast from Luo Yuan’s Great Power avatar, he hesitated, then deployed the spiritual treasure-level ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’.

He also coordinated with the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ in the room’s space to augment the effect with the ’Thunder Cloud Skill’.

His figure slowed momentarily, as ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’ appeared above his head. Adjusting his aura, he operated the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ with full force to swiftly restore himself to optimal condition.

Great Power Luo Yuan was astounded by Li Shiming’s speed; the Divine Foot Skill able to manifest such velocity left him in a bit of a quandary.

Despite his rapid speed, he too faced issues of energy depletion.

Avatars couldn’t autonomously regenerate energy; with each bit consumed, the avatar weakened progressively.

Although the consumption of Thunder Escape was relatively minimal, the accumulated energy drain from prolonged full use should not be underestimated.

He could only hope that Li Shiming would exhaust his energy first; otherwise, this personal mobilization of his avatar would become a laughingstock.

He certainly did not believe that the deployment of the avatar would escape the notice of other Great Powers on the Central State Continent.

If, after deploying his avatar, he failed to apprehend Li Shiming, he would probably become the subject of ridicule among various Great Powers for years.

As Great Power Luo Yuan was contemplating this, he sensed Li Shiming’s aura stagnate in place.

He was unsure of Li Shiming’s intention, but he recognized an opportunity, believing Li Shiming to be courting death.

Soon after, Great Power Luo Yuan saw Li Shiming standing in midair, poised above the ocean.

The youthful aura gave Great Power Luo Yuan a sense of nostalgia, as it had been many years since he encountered such a genius cultivator.

If Li Shiming survived, he might indeed surpass the old generation of Great Powers, but alas.

Li Shiming scrutinized Great Power Luo Yuan, observing the emergence of his avatar from the Thunder Escape, confirming through the ’Divine Eye Skill’ that it was an energy avatar.

The ’Divine Eye Skill’ allowed him to perceive the flow of energy. Having his own ’Phantom Avatar’, he researched numerous clone secret techniques while honing it, achieving significant insights into energy avatars.

With the assistance of IBMz15, he attained profound theoretical foundations on any secret technique he studied.

At this moment, Li Shiming deployed his intrinsic magic treasure, IBMz15, which engaged in battle analysis. As Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar approached a certain range, he initiated an attack.

Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar was somewhat surprised; even as an avatar, his attack range exceeded that of a Great Cultivator by far.

Upon entering the attack range, he unleashed realm suppression on Li Shiming.

Applying a Great Power’s realm on a middle-stage Great Cultivator was practically bullying.

However, he did not anticipate his realm suppression to fail.

It’s likely he hadn’t considered that what seemed like a focused suppression on a single person was actually dispersed among Li Shiming’s 191 brains, with each brain bearing a portion.

This allowed Li Shiming to evade the realm suppression from Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar, and instead mount a counterattack.

Of course, the true strength of Great Power Luo Yuan was not in this ability. A Great Power’s most terrifying skill was mobilizing a Grotto Heaven to battle, which was absent in the avatar.

He had bolstered the avatar with a Thunder Rule Origin, but he had no intentions of deploying it unless necessary, preferring to capture Li Shiming through conventional means.

The deployment of the Thunder Rule Origin would deplete two hundred years of accumulation from the Grotto Heaven.

The two hundred years of Yuqing Cave Heaven’s accumulation would render the already weakened Yuqing Sect even more fragile, with the loss of Thunder Rule Origin reducing the production of the Yuqing Cave Heaven for two hundred years, until it regained its origin.

”Suppress!” Li Shiming’s ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’ flew from overhead, hurtling towards Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar.

Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar sensed the ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’ attack approaching. Initially, he was indifferent, as such attacks held little practical significance for him.

But upon perceiving the spiritual treasure aura emanating from ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’, he was stunned—this was indeed a spiritual treasure.

Then, ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’ unleashed an indescribable gravitational field, causing Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar to experience a sense of hindrance.

Simultaneously, above Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar, vast clouds rapidly converged.

Situated above the ocean, with Li Shiming’s deliberate suppression of the activation state during the execution of ’Thunder Cloud Skill’, the condensation time of ’Thunder Cloud Skill’ was exceedingly brief upon release.

Forty ’Thunder Cloud Skills’ were unleashed simultaneously, each exceeding the power of a peak Thunder Cultivator.

This represented the greatest thunder skill power that Li Shiming could wield. Within the clouds, electrical light flickered, with the thunder energy brewing inside causing the water waves on the sea’s surface to tremble incessantly.

’Boom boom boom’, just as Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar broke free from ’Ruyi Zhenyue Peak’s gravitational field, the ’Thunder Cloud Skill’ in the sky launched its attack.

Bolts of lightning struck down from the sky, all targeting Great Power Luo Yuan’s avatar, each wave of attacks comprising forty lightning bolts crashing in unison, with the sheer force causing Li Shiming’s hair to stand on end from a distance.
