Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 2111: Chapter 1102: Interception

Li Shiming did not hesitate anymore, his figure headed toward the distance.

He would certainly not meet the tracker within the Falling Immortal Formation’s range; the only one capable of tracking him, a newly promoted Great Immortal Envoy, could only be another Great Immortal Envoy.

Among the several Great Immortal Envoys of the Immortal Alliance, he considered the greatest possibility to be Feng Kui, the Great Immortal Envoy of the Eastern faction.

He exerted all his might to utilize the space abilities belonging to Great Immortal Envoys, reaching the boundary of the Immortal Domain within a short time.

Upon arrival here, he was already out of the Falling Immortal Formation’s range.

A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes; although he was a newly promoted Great Immortal Envoy, and Feng Kui was an established Great Immortal Envoy, he felt little fear.

Firstly, he was not alone with Great Immortal Envoy forces; here he also had the help of Golden Saint.

The combat prowess of the six-winged Great Immortal Envoy could not be underestimated; it was definitely an existence standing at the pinnacle of this world.

Li Shiming was similarly not weak; don’t underestimate him simply because he was newly promoted. The combat effectiveness of Great Immortal Envoys mainly depended on the grandeur of their Grotto Heaven manifesting externally.

He fundamentally differed from other Great Immortal Envoys, possessing five Grotto Heavens; even if a single Grotto Heaven’s manifestation strength was inferior to Feng Kui’s, with all five combined, he could certainly offset the difference in external manifestation power inherent to Grotto Heavens.

Standing in the void, he slowly bestowed upon himself the Divine Skill ’Innate Wood’, and transformed the illusions of the ’Beidou Formation Map’ and ’Nine Heavens Star Constellation Array Diagram’ above his head.

Unfortunately, at the Great Immortal Envoy Realm, the power of the treasure ’Fractal Shadow Flag’ weakened to the extreme.

Despite the fact that the treasure ’Fractal Shadow Flag’ could conjure numerous clones, yet with only five Grotto Heavens, the most formidable combat method for a Great Immortal Envoy was to manifest the Grotto Heaven externally, and even if there were many clones, they couldn’t all be fully utilized.

”Here it comes!” Li Shiming murmured softly.

He adjusted his state, positioning himself at peak readiness, as he would face his most formidable enemy.

Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui gave an excuse to other Great Immortal Envoys before leaving the Immortal Alliance.

The other Great Immortal Envoys did not consider that he would go to hunt Li Shiming; even if there were some disagreements among human cultivators, no mortal combat had occurred between Great Immortal Envoys.

The emergence of a new Great Immortal Envoy among human cultivators enhanced the overall power of human cultivators.

This was a positive development for the Immortal Alliance, providing a foundation for countering the Divine Domain.

Yet Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui prioritized personal vendetta, aiming to eradicate the threat of Li Shiming before he fully matured.

Since becoming a Great Immortal Envoy, no one dared to defy Feng Kui’s ideas.

Even Great Immortal Envoys from other factions would discuss their opinions with him.

He personally ordered Great Power Lu Wei to invite Li Shiming to join the Immortal Alliance, but Great Power Lu Wei perished.

Had Li Shiming not promoted before, Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui would only suspect whether Great Power Lu Wei was killed by Li Shiming, but following Li Shiming’s promotion, he had determined that Li Shiming was indeed the one who killed Great Power Lu Wei.

He couldn’t let Li Shiming live, as it represented a challenge to him.

Most crucially, Li Shiming was close with the Southern faction, which now surpassed the Eastern faction. With Li Shiming’s assistance, the Eastern faction would spend at least several thousand years overshadowed by the Southern faction.

Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui tracked Li Shiming’s Identity Jade Disc location, and his space movement covered a vast distance, swiftly locating the region where Li Shiming’s Identity Jade Disc lost contact.

He scarcely needed further searching, for Li Shiming was standing directly in the void ahead.

”Regrettably, if you had chosen to join my side, by now you would have been my friend!” Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui exclaimed sternly.

”Your friend? Or controlled by you, reduced to being your alchemy tool?” Li Shiming retorted dryly with a hint of mockery.

”Wouldn’t that be your honor?” Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui coldly approached Li Shiming, speaking without warmth.

As the distance closed to where their spirits could probe each other, their spirits collided first.

Initially, Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui believed his longer cultivation time would advantage him in this mental confrontation, but upon impact, he realized he was mistaken.

Li Shiming’s spirit did not seem like an ordinary newly promoted Great Immortal Envoy, particularly as he launched a full spirit attack; his spirit displayed terrifying power akin to a meteorite. Yet, Li Shiming’s spirit rested upon an ocean-like foundation, remaining unaffected despite Feng Kui’s fierce mental assaults.

Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui’s gaze slightly contracted; Li Shiming’s strength surpassed his expectations. It seemed this battle would not be as effortless as initially presumed.

Nevertheless, he affirmed that approaching Li Shiming now was an optimal choice.

Should Li Shiming stabilize his realm, it would become even more difficult to annihilate him.

He remained extremely cautious, fearing Li Shiming might escape; he needed to be closer to confidently secure Li Shiming’s capture.

Otherwise, forming a mortal grudge with such a Great Immortal Envoy could have dire consequences.

Li Shiming was equally patient, anticipating Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui to draw nearer.

Both held the same thought, proceeding as Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui slowly advanced, while Li Shiming appeared to defensively disengage, progressively reducing their distance.

”Deploy the array!” Li Shiming abruptly commanded.

Above, both the ’Beidou Formation Map’ and ’Nine Heavens Star Constellation Array Diagram’ activated in unison, enveloping both him and Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui within.
