Chapter 155: Chapter 124: Tracking
The two cultivators who arrived were Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivators from the Holy Ice Sect, and they practiced the Holy Ice Sect’s main cultivation technique, which filled their bodies with chilly spiritual power. This is why they appeared deep blue in infrared mode.
These two late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, taking advantage of the night, made their way to Eagle Beak Island as if it were a route they knew well.
The last time, it was them who came to assassinate, and this time they had come again.
One of the late-stage Qi Refining cultivators took out an Array Breaking Talisman. When the spiritual power was stimulated, the talisman emitted a beam of white light that flew into the small Mountain Protection Array.
“What’s going on? Why is the Array Breaking Talisman useless?” Seeing the white light disappear as if a stone ox had entered the sea, he asked in bewilderment.
Little did he know that the defensive formation on Eagle Beak Island had been replaced with a smaller Mountain Protection Array. Unless someone employed a powerful method to crack it, a formidable Array Master, many times more skilled than Li Shiming, would have to make a personal appearance to possibly break through the small Mountain Protection Array.
Array Breaking Talismans were precious because they could allow a cultivator with not even the slightest foundation in formation techniques the possibility of breaking through a formation.
However, Array Breaking Talismans weren’t omnipotent. Their creation involved taking the experience of an intermediate or higher level Array Master in breaking formations and gathering it onto a talisman with the aid of some spiritual objects.
Such Array Breaking Talismans could easily break lower-level formations in one strike, but for relatively high-level formations like the small Mountain Protection Array, they lost their effect.
Of course, there were different grades of Array Breaking Talismans. If one was made by a great master of formation techniques, it might still cause chaos in the small Mountain Protection Array, thereby opening a passage.@@@@
Clearly, the two late-stage Qi Refining cultivators weren’t using a great master’s Array Breaking Talisman; those wouldn’t be wasted to deal with a Qi Refining cultivator—it simply wasn’t cost-effective.
It would be like using third-grade materials for a self-destruct attack to kill a Qi Refining cultivator—the cost and the target difference were too great.
“What should we do?” One of the late-stage Qi Refining cultivators asked his companion.
“Let’s go back for now. The Array Breaking Talisman is useless; do you expect us to break the formation by force?” His companion shook his head, indicating there was nothing they could do.
Such small islands were too numerous and hardly attracted the attention of cultivators.
Li Shiming descended from the sky to the sea surface, then changed into a diving suit and submerged himself in the water.
He sank all the way to the seabed, which wasn’t particularly deep, being only about thirty meters.
From the seabed, he approached the direction of the small island. This was his experience; on Eagle Beak Island, he had realized that approaching a formation from underwater greatly reduced the likelihood of being detected by the formation.
Therefore, he had also placed many surveillance probes beneath the waters surrounding Eagle Beak Island.
Extending his spiritual thought, he detected the formation set up on the small island.
As he had hypothesized, a high-level formation had been established here, its surface undetectable to the sense of spiritual power fluctuations.
But when his spiritual thought made contact, the fluctuations of spiritual power could not escape the detection of his spiritual thought.
Based on the sensations from his spiritual thought, the IBMz15 drafted a diagram of the spiritual power pattern of the formation, conjecturing the operation trajectory of the formation.
While he was investigating, he suddenly felt a tremor in his heart. He withdrew his spiritual thought and suppressed the fluctuations of spiritual power within his body as much as possible.
A figure flew out from the island, completely unaware of his presence below the surface, and soared away into the distance.
Li Shiming broke out in a cold sweat. He had not expected that there would be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator on the small island. It was fortunate that the Foundation Establishment Cultivator hadn’t discovered him; otherwise, he would’ve been in great trouble.
