Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 223 - 158 Battlefield

Chapter 223: Chapter 158 Battlefield

Elder Sheng’s Flying Boat was extraordinarily fast, the fastest Flying Boat Li Shiming had ever ridden.

Li Shiming couldn’t help but think maliciously, was it possible that Elder Sheng made the Flying Boat so fast in order to escape more quickly?

No sooner had this thought arisen in his mind than he quashed it.

He was still on Elder Sheng’s Flying Boat, and if Elder Sheng knew he was thinking this way, he would probably be thrown off the Flying Boat directly.

As they approached Seven Star Island, Li Shiming felt the tension in the atmosphere.

The formation on Seven Star Island was radiating brightly; fully activating the formation like this required a massive amount of Spiritual Energy, far beyond what could be supported by spirit veins alone.

This meant that the formation was currently being powered by the consumption of Spirit Stones.

And on the sea opposite Seven Star Island, four gigantic Flying Boats hovered in midair, with the energies of ten Golden Core cultivators soaring into the sky.

Both sides were clearly in a standoff, yet there was no immediate intention to engage in combat.

The arrival of Elder Sheng did not provoke any action from the other side, as if the addition of another Golden Core to this side was not a significant event.

The Flying Boat Li Shiming was on descended onto Tianji Island of Seven Star Island, and once he disembarked, he sensed the powerful auras on Seven Star Island.

“One, two, three…” he counted, the Golden Core auras that he could sense alone numbered more than twenty, making it a ratio of two to one compared to the opposing Golden Cores.

But judging by the level of vigilance on Seven Star Island, the Golden Cores of the Seven Sects did not wish to leave Seven Star Island to fight the ten Golden Cores on the opposite side.

“All cultivators prepared for combat from the sects, come forward!” an elderly voice called out.

“The three of you, pay attention to cooperation and take care of each other!” Elder Sheng instructed Li Shiming and his two companions before waving her hand to direct them towards the gathering point.

Li Shiming soared up with his Sword Control, followed by He Chuan and Shang Haoquan who also took to the air, flying towards the direction from where the elderly voice originated.

That place was Shaking Light Island, which was situated at the very front of Seven Star Island, pointing directly towards the opposition.

When Li Shiming arrived, he saw the familiar figure of Old Monk Du Yuan and beside him, a monk who appeared a generation younger, Master Du Hai.

By this time, Qi Refining Cultivators from each island of Seven Star Island had gathered; typically, each sect sent two Qi Refining Cultivators.

Except for the Holy Ice Sect, because Li Shiming replaced Du Bingyan, so there was only one Qi Refining Cultivator from the Holy Ice Sect.

Li Shiming truly felt the depth of the Seven Sects, besides him, there were thirteen Qi Refining Cultivators, all were top Qi Refining Cultivators at the Ninth Level of Body Refinement.

Among these Qi Refining Cultivators, his inborn spirit root seeds were certainly the worst, not to mention Dual Spirit Roots, there weren’t even any other Qi Refining Cultivators with Triple Spirit Roots.

However, since discovering that Li Shiming possessed Spiritual Thought, He Chuan and Shang Haoquan showed great respect to him.

In the Cultivation World, the strong were revered, and a Qi Refining Cultivator who possessed Spiritual Thought certainly belonged to a different class within the Qi Refinement Realm.

Although He Chuan and Shang Haoquan didn’t know that Li Shiming also possessed a secret technique for attacking with Spiritual Thought, just mastering Spiritual Thought alone was enough to give him a decisive advantage in combat.

The thirteen Qi Refining Cultivators nodded to each other; it was apparent that these talented cultivators from the Seven Sects were not strangers to each other.

Some of the Qi Refining Cultivators looked at Li Shiming with curiosity; they were unaware of his background and naturally had some inquisitive thoughts about him joining their group of talented cultivators.

“I am Monk Du Hai, before you participate in the battle, there are some things I must tell you!” Master Du Hai surveyed the Qi Refining Cultivators, speaking solemnly.

He did not know how many Qi Refining Cultivators would survive after this battle.

But this battle had to take place, as it would be the first clash between the two powers, as well as a ground for gauging strength.

If the Qi Refining Cultivators performed too poorly in this battle, it would send a clear signal to the opposite side that the cultivators of the Seven Sects were very weak.

In fact, the Golden Core Elders of the Seven Sects were not very confident about their own strength.

Especially those Golden Core Elders who had fought against Sword Cultivator Yun Xingyi; they had a profound feeling about it.

Even though they had severely injured Yun Xingyi, in reality, Yun Xingyi had directly entered the grand formation of Seven Star Island and was struck a fatal blow by seven Golden Core cultivators using the formation.

Despite this, Yun Xingyi still escaped the grand formation of Seven Star Island with his formidable strength.

The combat power displayed by Yun Xingyi was something even Elder Yin, who is at the Golden Core Middle Stage, could not withstand.

If all ten Golden Core cultivators from the opposing side possessed this level of strength, then the outcome of this battle did not even need to be considered.

The Golden Core cultivators on the opposing side also held the intention of gauging strength; their strongest combatant in the Golden Core Stage mysteriously lost contact on Seven Star Island, forcing them to reconsider the hidden strength of the Seven Sects.

Moreover, such large-scale battles usually don’t begin with top-tier combatants fighting to the death.

Usually, they start with Qi Refiners, gradually increasing the intensity of the battle, allowing the stronger side to possibly crush the confidence of the weaker side.

Many times, battles do not even need to reach the level of top-tier combatants; just by the crushing advantage during the fight, the weaker side might concede voluntarily to avoid battle and suffer defeat.

One must know that a full-scale battle between Golden Core cultivators would leave both sides significantly depleted.

The cultivators from Beishu had fled to this place; they certainly did not desire further losses in their strength.

The same was true for the Seven Sects; cultivating any Golden Core cultivator was not easy, considering the accumulation over hundreds of years, each sect on the surface had only about three Golden Core cultivators.
