Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 2023: Chapter 1058: Immortal Alliance

Li Shiming finally understood why the location for seeking the Immortal Alliance wasn’t given as a map, but as a compass.

After leaving the Great Power Yin Hai, he headed towards the direction of the Immortal Alliance.

The Land of Fallen Immortals has no ground; without any markers on a map, having one is like not having one at all.

Only a compass can point out directions and prevent new cultivators entering the Land of Fallen Immortals from getting lost.

Of course, once he becomes familiar with the Land of Fallen Immortals after some time, he could reestablish his sense of direction, and then a map would be enough for him to find locations.

A cultivator’s sense of direction is extremely strong; it’s just that the Land of Fallen Immortals is inconsistent with his previous world, rendering the sense of direction he established there useless here, even affecting his judgment.

Li Shiming was acting alone; Yin Shilan, Li Yuanba, and Li Taibai had all entered the Grotto Heaven.

He opened his ’Divine Sight,’ constantly observing his surroundings, wanting to gather information about this world.

Where he was, within the realm of the Immortal Domain, the Spiritual Energy was extremely dense, almost equivalent to being in the main Spiritual Vein supply of a superpower.

He was performing Space Movement, appearing and disappearing in the void.

IBMz15 was constructing a map of the Land of Fallen Immortals; any area he explored would be recorded.

His speed was extremely fast; however, the vastness of the Land of Fallen Immortals meant that even after a day’s time, he had not yet reached the Immortal Alliance.

His Space Movement was indeed very fast; all this time was enough for him to cross two continents in the Central Province Cultivation World.

It was half a two-hour period later when he stopped in the void.

He looked ahead, where a grand hall floated in the air.

The exterior of the hall flickered with spiritual radiance, and through his ’Divine Sight,’ he could see scenes usually invisible to the naked eye.

From the hall extended two beams of energy, and with his keen eyesight, he recognized these as the connecting lines of formation energy exchange.

This meant that the hall ahead was not an independent entity, but a node in a super formation.

Li Shiming looked at the hall’s location, realizing it was not where the Immortal Alliance was located; he needed to pass by the hall to reach the Immortal Alliance he sought.

He didn’t intend to invite trouble, his figure flickered, and he planned to use Space Movement to leap over the hall ahead.

A surge of energy spread from the hall ahead, forming a barrier in mid-air that bounced him out of his Space Movement state.

If not for Li Shiming’s profound understanding of space principles, this would have severely injured him.

Disruptions to Space Movement result in backlash, which is the backlash of Spatial Energy, capable of injuring even the great powers.

The aura around Li Shiming surged suddenly; wings sprouted from his back, enhancing his spatial abilities and protecting him from backlash.

The ’Slaying Immortal Sword’ floated above his head, its terrifying ’Chaos Sword Intent’ locked onto the hall in the void.

Though he didn’t utilize Cave Heaven Energy, his attack power wasn’t much weaker than if he had.

”State your identity, why attempt to leap over my head?” A voice emanated from the hall, seemingly sensing Li Shiming’s threat.

”Li Shiming from Central State, newly arrived in the Land of Fallen Immortals. Why did you attack me?” Li Shiming replied in a deep voice.

”Did Yin Hai not tell you that you cannot leap over an Immortal Residence in the Land of Fallen Immortals?” The voice softened somewhat upon learning Li Shiming was a newcomer.

”There’s such a rule? Yin Hai never mentioned it!” Li Shiming realized he had been rash.

He internally thought that Great Power Yin Hai had probably forgotten to mention this, feeling a slight grievance towards Yin Hai.

In truth, the reason Yin Hai forgot some matters was that the great powers Li Shiming belonged to had given Yin Hai so many surprises, causing Yin Hai to lose his usual composure.

”My name is Jiao Chi, responsible for guarding this Immortal Residence!” Jiao Chi Great Power flew out from the Immortal Residence and nodded towards Li Shiming.

”I’ve understood the rules!” Li Shiming said in a deep voice.

He had no intention to befriending Jiao Chi Great Power; had he not been unfamiliar with the situation here, he would have already killed Jiao Chi Great Power.

Even though he won’t slay Jiao Chi Great Power, it doesn’t mean he wishes to associate with him.

He paid no heed to Jiao Chi Great Power and with a flicker, bypassed Jiao Chi’s Immortal Residence, heading towards the Immortal Alliance.

Jiao Chi Great Power watched the direction Li Shiming departed, gradually retracting the Cave Heaven Energy he had mobilized.

Li Shiming gave him immense pressure; otherwise, he would have taught Li Shiming a lesson before explaining the situation.

”Hope we won’t become enemies in the future!” Jiao Chi Great Power sighed weakly, shaking his head and speaking to himself.

When he was locked on by the ’Slaying Immortal Sword,’ his danger senses were ringing frantically, prompting him to explain things first from within the Immortal Residence.

He feared that once exposed, there would be no time to speak and he would be cut down by Li Shiming in an instant.

As Li Shiming continued on his way, he pondered over the matter of the Immortal Residence.

The hall where Jiao Chi Great Power resided was the Immortal Residence, yet the structure where Great Power Yin Hai stayed wasn’t named an Immortal Residence, perhaps indicating that only buildings integrated into the formation qualify as Immortal Residences.

He had just examined the Immortal Residence; besides providing dwelling for cultivators, its main function was being a part of the formation.

Li Shiming, now in his present location, could sense the faint presence of formation energy, suggesting he was within the colossal formation set by the Immortal Residence.
