Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 381 - 237 Agreement

Li Shiming stood on the mountain peak, the breeze blowing through his hair, his body almost seeming as if to float away with the wind.

“A good wind, using its force to lift me to the azure clouds.”

At this moment, it wasn’t just a feeling; if he hadn’t controlled his body, he really would have been lifted by the gentle breeze off the ground.

Now, his Taoist Body was transparent inside and out, pure as a flawless crystal.

The effects of “Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill” and “Sword Demon Secret Manual” were still ongoing, yet the traces that should be left from Body Refinement did not show any signs on his Taoist Body.

His body and spirit had reached a certain bottleneck, a great mountain obstructing the further strengthening of both.

Li Shiming suspected that this was probably the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and to enhance his body and spirit further, he would need to wait until the Golden Core Stage.

In one year’s time, he had consumed more than three hundred top-grade “Shushan Yellow Spirit Pills”, and the Spiritual Power within him had reached the later phases of Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

This pace frightened even him, so when he ventured outside, he operated the “Demon Shadow Buddha Form Technique” to maintain his realm at the early phases of Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

However, to give up consuming top-grade Spirit Pills was equally undesirable for him, as the rapid increase in strength could augment his prowess, leaving more time for later cultivation.

He had heard that some cultivators spent too much time in the Foundation Establishment Stage and, as a result, had a hundred years less cultivation time than other Golden Core cultivators, growing old in the Golden Core Stage.

Now, one day faster in cultivation meant one extra day for cultivation in the Golden Core Stage.

The life expectancy in the Foundation Establishment Stage was two hundred years, which could go up to five hundred years in the Golden Core Stage; though it seemed like a long time, in reality, the time spent cultivating passed very quickly.

That’s why Elder Su would only meet with disciples once a month, because his cultivation sessions would almost take up an entire month’s time.

Li Shiming had examined the sect’s records and could confirm that his current Taoist Body was undoubtedly a Pure Taoist Body.

Yet, a Pure Taoist Body should be an Innate Taoist Body, not something achievable through postnatal efforts. Who would have thought that a cultivation technique like “Purple Qi Eastward” could refine a Pure Taoist Body?

The benefits of a Pure Taoist Body were numerous, with the greatest being the affinity with Spiritual Power which would become multi-fold, something he discovered during his cultivation as the effectiveness of absorbing top-grade “Shushan Yellow Spirit Pills” had increased a bit.

Initially, after each cultivation session, the excess efficacy of the top-grade “Shushan Yellow Spirit Pills” would linger in his body for a while before being digested or expelled.

But now, during each cultivation session of “Nine Heavens Thunder Strike Technique”, the efficacy within a top-grade “Shushan Yellow Spirit Pill” would be fully absorbed by him.

Li Shiming could now use “Step by Step Lotus” to cover a distance of 260 meters with every step, which was also a manifestation of his enhanced spirit.

In addition, the Red Sun Spirit Fire within him also reaped benefits; its quality had risen to the Second Order Peak and underwent some special changes.

Red Sun Spirit Fire was already Supreme Yang Fire, and the Innate Violet Aura was also a Heavenly Innate Supreme Yang Energy. Influenced by the Innate Violet Aura, the Red Sun Spirit Fire underwent an unfathomable transformation, significantly increasing its power.

Li Shiming always felt that there was a good chance the Red Sun Spirit Fire might now be capable of concocting Third-grade Spirit Pills.

Having inherited the “Shushan Pill Scripture”, he wouldn’t be mistaken on this aspect, being a legacy specializing in Spiritual Fire Alchemy.

He was considering whether to attempt concocting Third-grade Spirit Pills now; if successful, he would become the second Alchemy Master of the Shushan Sect.

Of course, even if he became an Alchemy Master, he would be far from matching Elder Ma. This was related to his realm; without reaching the Golden Core Realm, at best he could only concoct Third-grade Spirit Pills of the lowest quality for the early Golden Core Stage.

The Spirit Pills with high-quality Third-grade Spiritual Medicine as the main ingredient could only be concocted by Alchemy Masters in the Golden Core Realm.

“Forget it, let’s wait a while longer, wait until the Red Sun Spirit Fire advances to the third grade!” Li Shiming dismissed the idea of advancing as an Alchemy Master prematurely.

In fact, his foundation in Alchemy was already incredibly solid.

In a year’s time, he had not wasted a moment, conducting Alchemy five times a day, ten furnaces each time, resulting in fifty furnaces of Spirit Pills a day.

By now, the Spirit Pills stored in his Space Ring could probably support a large sect’s consumption for several years.

This was after he had sold off a portion of the Spirit Pills through the sect and the Beishu Trading Company’s channels.

The Beishu Trading Company had also provided him with a substantial amount of various materials, allowing him to continue his research work with ample supplies.

“Time for another trip out!” Li Shiming thought of another matter and murmured to himself.

Over the year, Li Yuanba of the Senluo Sect had also advanced to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and “Purple Qi Eastward” had induced a peculiar transformation in Li Yuanba’s Taoist Body.

In his human form, he embodied Supreme Yang Qi, coupled with otherworldly looks; he truly possessed the appearance of a transcendent immortal.

In his Corpse Refining form, however, he was the epitome of extreme yin cold, standing at three and a half meters tall, his skin dark and glossy, with red eyes and fangs turned outwards, bearing no resemblance to a human form.

The strangest thing was that his Corpse Refining form’s defensive power was now comparable to Jiang Chen’s, with extreme yin coldness that was terrifying. Once he struck an enemy, the damage inflicted was even greater than Jiang Chen’s sheer use of Yin Cold Spiritual Power.

Just what level of Corpse Refining was Jiang Chen? He was at the peak of an Iron Corpse.
