Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1683: Chapter 888: Corrosion

Sitting inside the ’Chasing Wind Dragon Boat’, Li Shiming began to tally his gains from this trip.

Among the Mustard Seed Rings of other Great Cultivators, there were almost no Spiritual Objects that caught his eye.

However, when he checked the Soul Crystal Ring of Grandmaster Wu Ding, he first discovered a flying boat.

This flying boat was a fourth-grade top flying boat, and when he scanned it with his Divine Sense, he found that the imprint of ownership within the flying boat had not disappeared.

Moreover, the spirit contained within this imprint of ownership was extremely strong, presumably a half-step Great Power’s spiritual imprint.

Li Shiming did not touch this fourth-grade top flying boat, instead, he simply took out several Prohibition Talismans to seal the flying boat.

”Indeed, there is!” he said to himself with a smile, as he retrieved a jade token from the Soul Crystal Ring.

This jade token, due to the fall of Grandmaster Wu Ding, had lost its owner.

But even if other cultivators obtained the jade token, they could not make it recognize a new owner, let alone activate its effects.

This jade token was the control token of the Yuzhu Island Array, and it was the highest authority control token, which matched the status of Grandmaster Wu Ding.

This control token in Li Shiming’s hands allowed him to easily manipulate the Yuzhu Island Array without needing to enter the array and seize control.

With the presence of a half-step Great Power, all his actions needed to be far away from the Yuzhu Islands; getting too close could result in the half-step Great Power striking him down in one blow.

He had already endured an attack from a half-step Great Power and did not want to experience another.

Li Shiming sent a Divine Sense into the control token, and with the help of the IBMz15, he modified the control token and successfully re-established ownership.

Within Grandmaster Wu Ding’s Soul Crystal Ring, there were also some Great Cultivator resources, but those hardly interested him anymore.

Soon after, he arrived near the Yuzhu Islands and put away the ’Chasing Wind Dragon Boat’.

He converted his aura to a water element aura, at least enough to deceive the scanning of the Yuzhu Island Array, preventing immediate identification.

When he flew within a distance to control the Yuzhu Island Array, he took out the control token.

IBMz15 had already conducted in-depth research on the array; he issued commands to the array through the control token, which the array accepted.

The cultivators on Yuzhu Island were shocked to find that the thirty-six islands began to move.

However, since there had been several movements recently, while the cultivators were surprised by the sudden movement of the islands, they weren’t overly panicked.

Even the top officials of the Yuzhu Islands did not realize that the island array was being controlled by an outsider.

The thirty-six islands formed a special array, a confinement array, trapping the main island, or Central Island, in the center.

Li Shiming had confirmed earlier that the half-step Great Power’s Grotto Heaven was locked with the main island; even during multiple movements in the beast tide, it did not affect the Grotto Heaven.

At this time, some high-level members of the Yuzhu Islands noticed something amiss, but Grandmaster Wu Ding had dispatched almost all Great Cultivators, leaving only the high-level members at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, incapable of managing the situation.

Of course, even if they wanted to have an impact, they couldn’t. Within the array, unless someone had conducted highly advanced research on the array and could break it open in a short time or had immense strength, at least reaching the Great Cultivator Realm, attacking the weak points of the array with full force, there was only a slim hope of stopping the array’s operation.

Li Shiming did not wait for the cultivators of the Yuzhu Islands to react; with a wave of his hand, two hundred ’Corrosive Fog Talismans’ flew from his hand towards the array.

As soon as the two hundred ’Corrosive Fog Talismans’ entered the array, they were delivered to the central location of the main island via the array’s Spiritual Power Pattern line.

He watched as the two hundred ’Corrosive Fog Talismans’ reached their position and remotely activated the ’Corrosive Fog Talismans’ through the control token.

With a ”boom,” the two hundred ’Corrosive Fog Talismans’ exploded, equivalent to the self-detonation of two hundred fourth-grade ’Xuan You Wujin Beasts,’ producing the ’Corrosive Fog,’ or even stronger.

Primarily, it was Li Shiming’s ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ that activated the ’Corrosive Fog’; the quality of ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ exceeded that of power at the same level.

The ’Corrosive Fog’ thus triggered was much stronger than that activated by the fourth-grade ’Xuan You Wujin Beast.’

A mass of gray mist formed on the surface of the main island; the characteristic of the ’Corrosive Fog’ is that once it adheres, it clings persistently to the object until it completely erodes it.

The gray mist spread over most of the main island’s area, causing the alerted cultivators to scream.

They tried to escape the area covered by the gray mist, but upon rushing into the fog, they realized they were mistaken.

”This is the ’Corrosive Fog,’ quickly get the patriarch to make a move!” shouted a cultivator who recognized the ’Corrosive Fog.’

Unfortunately, the one holding the control token was Li Shiming; the control token was not only the control token of the Yuzhu Island Array but also a tool to communicate with the half-step Great Power.

The half-step Great Power couldn’t always keep track of affairs on Yuzhu Island, and external events could only be conveyed by the island’s ruling Great Cultivators.

At this moment, not only did the island’s cultivators notice something was amiss, but other cultivators also realized that something significant had happened on Yuzhu Island.

At Duiyi Island, what surprised Li Shiming was that only a few Great Cultivators flew out, and the others were nowhere to be seen.

”Could it be they’re chasing after me?” Li Shiming murmured to himself.
