Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 2118 - 1105: Power (Part 2)

Staying in the Southern Division, Li Shiming found himself under the authority of Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu. Even if Jian Feiyu granted him immense power, any actions within the Southern Division required a report to Jian Feiyu.

Moreover, Li Shiming had a great interest in the Book Collection Pavilion of the Eastern Division. His rapid advancement within a few hundred years, elevating his comprehension of the Five Elements Rules, Thunder Rules, Sword Intent Rule, and Space Rules to the level required for ascension as an Immortal Envoy, was partly thanks to the blessings of the divine essence of the Six-Winged Archangel Jin Sheng and the helpful texts within the Southern Division’s Book Collection Pavilion.

”I agree!” Li Yuanba nodded and said.

Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin and the three other Great Immortal Envoys all smiled, with Feng Jin smiling the happiest.

Because Li Yuanba’s willingness to take over the Eastern Division stabilized the Immortal Alliance and restored its strength, Feng Jin could follow his original plan to ascend.

This was the main reason he proposed for Li Yuanba to take over the Eastern Division; the allure of ascension was too great for him.

Due to Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui’s untimely demise, without Feng Kui’s assistance, the likelihood of another Great Immortal Envoy emerging from the Eastern Division was quite slim.

If the Eastern Division remained as it was, Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin would have to stay in this world until the Immortal Alliance restored its balance.

With the support of several Great Immortal Envoys, they wouldn’t consider the views of other Great Powers in the Eastern Division.

This was immaterial, as the Great Immortal Envoy held the highest authority in the Immortal Alliance.

Li Yuanba’s Identity Jade Disc was enhanced by several Great Immortal Envoys to elevate his authority to that of a manager in the Eastern Division.

Through the Identity Jade Disc, he truly understood the Eastern Division’s foundations, covering a quarter of the Immortal Alliance.

In the Eastern Division alone, there were 173 Inheritance Cave Heavens, with the inheritance cave heaven of the main peak being the core.

Using his Identity Jade Disc, he entered the inheritance cave heaven of the Eastern Division’s main peak, arriving at the Cave Heaven Core and embedding the Master Recognition Technique.

Immediately, the entire Inheritance Cave Heaven fell within his perception range. Though not his true Cave Heaven, it was under his control.

The operations of the Eastern Division didn’t require much of his attention, only major decisions demanded his involvement.

Of course, regular reports on all Eastern Division affairs were sent to him via the Identity Jade Disc at intervals, allowing him to manage all matters within the Eastern Division.

Li Yuanba didn’t overhaul the Eastern Division’s power structure, as strength was revered in the Cultivation World.

No matter the turmoil below, as a Great Immortal Envoy, he held absolute authority and power. If any issues arose, he could easily strip or bestow power to a cultivator.

He first inspected the treasury, realizing its wealth only upon viewing it.

There were over five hundred Fifth-grade Spiritual Medicines remaining in the treasury, despite previous exchange frenzies by the Great Powers. One can imagine the original abundance of Fifth-grade Spiritual Medicines in the Eastern Division.

Considering the 173 Inheritance Cave Heavens, it’s not surprising they were all meant to cultivate Fifth-grade Spiritual Medicines.

Within the treasury were also some Fifth-grade materials, ’Exotic Realm Spirit Crystal’, numerous spiritual treasures, and a few supreme treasures.

According to the authority explanation within the Identity Jade Disc, he had the final say over everything in the Eastern Division’s treasury.

Even if he emptied the treasury, it wouldn’t be a problem; however, no Great Immortal Envoy would do such a thing.

Li Yuanba gazed at the treasury, capable of driving Late Stage Great Powers mad, with an indifferent expression on his face.

Yes, the wealth here was astonishing, but to a Great Immortal Envoy, the treasury was merely wealth, not even cultivation resources.

A Great Immortal Envoy no longer required Fifth-grade materials refined into Fifth-grade Spiritual Treasures from their own Cave Heaven; what could non-Cave Heaven produced Fifth-grade materials possibly amount to?

Fifth-grade Spiritual Pills crafted from Fifth-grade Spiritual Medicines were similarly of limited benefit to a Great Immortal Envoy.

Perhaps in the Eastern Division, the Great Immortal Envoy’s stone house and the Book Collection Pavilion truly aided Li Yuanba’s cultivation.

Then he proceeded to the Book Collection Pavilion. With the Great Immortal Envoy Realm and higher authority, his Spirit instantly enveloped the entire pavilion, penetrating even the protected jade scrolls.

IBMz15 started recording the texts within these jade scrolls, with some overlapping with the Southern Division’s Book Collection Pavilion, yet many were unique.

Especially the ancient texts, each jade scroll was nearly one of a kind.

After not spending long in the Book Collection Pavilion, he proceeded to the Great Immortal Envoy’s stone house.

The stone house was arranged as a sea of fire, particularly with dozens of Fifth Grade Immortal Fire Flames placed throughout, forming a special flame formation centered around the flames.

Within such a stone house, fire-element cultivation speed would greatly increase.

Unfortunately, Li Yuanba was a Gold Element Great Immortal Envoy, and with a mental motion, the stone house’s arrangements changed drastically.

The space transformed into a realm of void, with only a floating prayer mat in the core.

In addition to his Southern Division’s stone house, the sky now had dozens of stars, transformed from Fifth Grade Immortal Fire Flames.

The stone house originally generated Fire Energy, but with his modification, it only produced Gold Element Energy.

The Gold Element Energy here could be absorbed by his Cave Heaven, speeding up Cave Heaven Energy production.

However, the stone house’s converted Fire Energy was far insufficient for his Cave Heaven’s absorption speed, vastly inferior to the naturally produced energy from the Cave Heaven Core.

This resulted in constant energy shortages in the stone house, though it pleased him greatly.

On the other side, Li Shiming had focused on the soul crystal ring obtained from Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui’s corpse after Li Taibai ascended as a Great Immortal Envoy.

After Li Taibai’s ascension, he entered closed cultivation.

There was no avoiding it, as Li Taibai was likely the weakest Great Immortal Envoy.

Without accumulated Cave Heaven Energy, his combat prowess was severely restricted.

Though the attack power of Thunder Cultivator Immortal Envoys remained strong, the thunder’s might heavily depended on the Cave Heaven Energy’s total amount, limiting the Thunder Skill’s full power.

Recently, there were no pressing matters, nor did Li Taibai need to accrue contribution points.

Plans couldn’t keep up with changes; previously, he thought he’d remain at the Great Power Realm for a long time, heavily reliant on resources.

Yet unexpectedly, after five hundred years, he had already ascended as a Great Immortal Envoy.

Resources were almost needless now, leaving ample resources that Yin Shilan couldn’t deplete no matter how she tried.

Speaking of Yin Shilan, her talent posed significant challenges. At the Middle Stage Great Power, even with adequate energy accumulation over five hundred years, her comprehension of rules lagged behind significantly.

However, this was not a concern, as Yin Shilan’s Life Span was incredibly long, eliminating the urgency for ascension.

Li Shiming focused on the contents of the soul crystal ring, curious about what a Great Immortal Envoy’s soul crystal ring housed.

Upon spotting a Flying Boat, his poverty became more apparent.

He realized the Flying Boat was a Fifth-Grade Flying Boat.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the Fifth-Grade Flying Boat was crafted by cutting down a Fifth-Grade Spirit Root.

He deemed such actions as wasteful extravagance; even after reaching the Great Immortal Envoy Realm, he greatly valued Fifth-Grade Spirit Roots.

Fifth-Grade Spirit Roots possessed versatility, enabling various transformations and uses.

The resources produced were all of fifth-grade quality, addressing sustained fifth-grade resource consumption.

Using a Fifth-Grade Spirit Root to create a Fifth-Grade Flying Boat, regardless of its performance, was inferior to the intrinsic value of the spirit root.

Of course, this was Li Shiming’s personal view; to Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui or other envoys, status was paramount.

A Fifth-Grade Flying Boat as a vehicle fully exhibited the elegance of a Great Immortal Envoy.

As for the rarity of Fifth-Grade Spirit Roots, for those wielding supreme authority in the Immortal Alliance, finding them was merely a matter of attention.
