Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 216: Chapter 154 Task_2

It was simply a waste of resources, especially given Ren Fei’er’s age; reaching her current level so quickly was already extraordinary.

These irregular circumstances, combined with the sect’s sudden increased investment in formations, made everything seem out of the ordinary.

Li Shiming hadn’t heard any news from Yin Shilan and Ren Fei’er; it seemed they also didn’t know the specifics.

But he felt an increasing urgency, which made him speed up the construction of his formations.

With his proficiency as a high-level Array Master, aided by Spiritual Thought, it only took five two-hour periods to construct a formation at sea, and he delegated the task of processing formation materials to his clone.

Aside from returning to his sect’s cave to cultivate every day, he spent the rest of his time, day and night, building formations outside.

For his own safety, when constructing formations, he would disperse several soul splits from the “Spirit Control Soul Splitting Technique” around the area to stay alert to the conditions of the nearby seas.

It was precisely because of the existence of the primary spirit that he dared to undertake this task.

Ever since the primary spirit of the “Spirit Control Soul Splitting Technique” absorbed the soul of the deceased Golden Core Yun Xingyi, it had undergone tremendous changes, becoming almost indistinguishable from a physical entity.

It could now create up to ten soul splits without any impact on the primary spirit, exceeding even the descriptions of the “Spirit Control Soul Splitting Technique.”

A transparent Flying Boat flew through the sky, carrying six Qi Refining cultivators in the late stages; especially one whose aura surpassed the five companions beside him.

“Brother Du, the rewards for this mission are substantial. If you manage to catch Elder Baili’s eye, don’t forget about us!” a cultivator said to the leading Brother Du with a flattering tone.

Every sect has its prodigious cultivators that receive special attention. Normally, these talents don’t act alongside ordinary cultivators.

Even ordinary cultivators rarely get to meet these talented individuals. Prodigies are presented with carefully prepared missions and resources by the sect, and even the cultivation techniques provided to them are optimal for their conditions.

Only a very few ordinary cultivators chosen by prodigious ones get the chance to cooperate in missions, receiving rewards that, though mostly claimed by the prodigies, far exceed those of standard tasks.

More importantly, such opportunities are rare chances for ordinary cultivators to form connections with the talents.

At the very least, prodigious cultivators within a sect have the strength of the middle to late stages of Foundation Establishment. If they’re lucky, they might even progress to become Golden Core cultivators.

Of course, prodigies becoming Golden Core is something that happens many years later, and ordinary cultivators who haven’t reached Foundation Establishment will find it difficult to benefit from them.

The six cultivators here were led by Brother Du of the Holy Ice Sect, a prodigy with a Heavenly Spirit Root. Many cultivators in the late stages of Foundation Establishment would be willing to accept him as a disciple.

He had done this many times in the past days, with no need for the assistance of IBMz15.

With the Array Formation Starlight Sea providing automatic cross-references, he could obtain accurate data, a reason why array masters, with relatively ordinary minds, can perform vast calculations.

Array masters are a profession of high experiential learning. The one who created the Array Formation Starlight Sea could effortlessly retrieve corresponding data from within the Sea for any formation within his area of study through accumulated experience.

Sometimes, Li Shiming wondered if the Array Formation Starlight Sea was some type of biological computer.

“Disciples of the Holy Ice Sect!” he stopped his work as one of the souls from the ‘Spirit Control Soul Splitting Technique’ sent him a warning.

He shared the vision of that soul with his prime spirit and saw the familiar transparent Flying Boat, a standard model from within the Holy Ice Sect.

From the flight path of the transparent Flying Boat, it was easy to deduce that he was the target.

As he watched, the transparent Flying Boat came to a stop, and five cultivators spread out, encircling him.

It was clear that the cultivators of the Holy Ice Sect who had come held strong confidence—they did not intend to give him a chance to escape.

Li Shiming sensed the aura of these cultivators through his split soul and felt at ease; including the one on the Flying Boat, they were all Qi Refining cultivators.

He had already reached the Qi Refining Eighth Layer, a powerful contender in the late-stage Qi Refining realm.

Not to mention his physique, which could easily overpower a Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivator. His robust body and defensive power meant he did not fear being attacked by multiple peers.

Of course, that was his own confidence. The Holy Ice Sect, not knowing enough about him, had sent fighters he believed to be far from requiring his full strength.

In fact, if Elder Baili knew about Li Shiming’s performance on Seven Star Island, he would have assigned this mission to talented disciples with Heavenly Spirit Roots.

Although Brother Du had not formally become a disciple, the sect spared no effort in providing resources and cultivation techniques for those with Heavenly Spirit Roots.

Brother Du’s combat power stood at the pinnacle of the Qi Refinement realm; dealing with Li Shiming, who had a slight accomplishment in Body Refinement, was not an issue. This was especially true considering the help from other Qi Refining disciples, leaving no chance for Li Shiming to survive.

Li Shiming neither hid nor evaded but faced the enemy head-on. He soared into the air, spreading his wings, and waited mid-air for the arrival of his opponents.
