After the illusive double was captured by the half-step Great Power Lian Lei into the Grotto Heaven, Li Shiming greeted Yin Shilan and left the Ten Thousand Beast Sect under her worried gaze, heading toward the Sun Concealing Sect.

Such a big incident occurred at the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, how could Yin Shilan not know?

The illusive double, which was handling sect affairs at the Sun Concealing Sect, got into trouble. She was worried about it, and even more concerned about Li Shiming, who was rushing there.

She was clear about the strength of the illusive double. Even if several peak Great Cultivators joined forces, they couldn’t contend with it carrying four late-stage Golden Corpses.

One who could easily capture the illusive double would have no trouble capturing Li Shiming.

But Yin Shilan did not persuade him too much. She knew she was far less adept at handling these matters than Li Shiming, and interfering randomly would only cause trouble for him.

Li Shiming was anxious. For the first time, he used his full strength to perform ’instant arrival’, employing ten brains to allow almost continuous, seamless execution of ’instant arrival’.

This way of performing ’instant arrival’ consumed a great deal of the Spiritual Power Pattern within him.

Fortunately, his realm had reached the peak Great Cultivator level, with five Nascent Souls supplying Spiritual Power Patterns, enabling him to withstand such consumption.

From the Ten Thousand Beast Sect to the Sun Concealing Sect, he only took the time of burning two sticks of incense.

Li Shiming suddenly appeared outside the Sun Concealing Sect, allowing Grandmaster Hu to let out a sigh of relief.

Grandmaster Hu confirmed that the one captured was indeed the illusive double and not the real Li Shiming.

Although before, Li Shiming had explained through the late-stage Golden Corpse, it was entirely different from seeing Li Shiming’s true body.

"Master, if there’s anything, let’s talk later. I’ll reinforce the Formation first!" Li Shiming waved his hand and said to Grandmaster Hu.

He flashed into the Sun Concealing Sect Array, continuously throwing black and white chess pieces from his hand. This time, he exerted his Formation ability, using the black and white chess pieces in conjunction with the Sun Concealing Sect Array to reinforce the seal on Lian Lei’s Grotto Heaven.

Due to being concerned about the threat of the half-step Great Power Lian Lei, Li Shiming did not approach Master Su Tong’s corpse, nor did he care about what the Cave Heaven Anchor Point Carrier was.

In any case, the Formation he deployed was centered on Master Su Tong’s corpse, and that Cave Heaven Anchor Point Carrier was on it.

Having completed this step, Li Shiming finally felt at ease.

The Formation laid with the black and white chess pieces came from the Cloud Island Sea’s Formation system, and combined with the Sun Concealing Sect’s array, it was almost equivalent to two arrays simultaneously sealing a small piece of space.

He flickered away from the Sun Concealing Sect’s mountain gate and returned to the side of Grandmaster Hu.

"Master, have all the sect cultivators at the Sun Concealing Sect sign confidentiality contracts, and ensure other non-sect cultivators also sign confidentiality contracts. If they don’t sign, then detain them!" Li Shiming said to Grandmaster Hu.

"I already have plans for that. Who is this person?" Grandmaster Hu asked curiously.

"A half-step Great Power from the Yuqing Sect, sent to deal with me because his life span is about to end!" Li Shiming said, shaking his head with a bitter smile.

Li Shiming knew the Yuqing Sect hadn’t let him go, but to send a half-step Great Power again, and an extremely powerful one at that, exceeded his expectations.

Almost all the superpowers have half-step Great Powers, but seeing which superpower would send a half-step Great Power on a mission.

A half-step Great Power, although a realm, is an extremely dangerous transitional realm and is rarely revealed.

Not to mention being brought along with a Cave Heaven Anchor Point Carrier, far away from the sect on a mission.

"Hiss!" Grandmaster Hu and Grandmaster Chai, standing beside him, both sucked in a breath of cold air.

They never expected that the energy hand they saw earlier was actually the work of a half-step Great Power.

No wonder Li Shiming demanded to seal the information. If the Yuqing Sect found out their half-step Great Power was trapped at the Sun Concealing Sect, they would likely send cultivators for rescue.

"I won’t stay," Li Shiming said finally, "With my strength, I can’t deal with that half-step Great Power. Let’s just drag it out for now!"

He had done what needed to be done; it remained to be seen whether the half-step Great Power Lian Lei or the illusive double within the Grotto Heaven would be the first to falter.

"The following matters will be handled by us. You go back to the mountain gate first!" Grandmaster Hu nodded and said.

On his way back, Li Shiming didn’t use ’instant arrival’ again. Instead, he took out the ’Jade Pearl Flying Boat’ and flew back to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

In the Grotto Heaven of half-step Great Power Lian Lei, Lian Lei looked at the illusive double, not knowing how to deal with it for a while.

The half-step Great Power Lian Lei truly regarded the illusive double as Li Shiming, knowing that Li Shiming held the divine treasure of Great Power Luo Yuan, the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ clue.

According to intelligence from the Yuqing Sect, many times when Li Shiming displayed Thunder Skills, their sect cultivators sensed the aura of the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’, indicating that Li Shiming obtained it.

However, Li Shiming, using some means, hid the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ away, and even Great Power Luo Yuan, the owner of ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’, couldn’t sense its location.

With the temperament of half-step Great Power Lian Lei, the best course now would be to slay Li Shiming.

But to truly do so means the clue to Great Power Luo Yuan’s ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl’ would be lost, which was the main mission Great Power Luo Yuan tasked him with.
