Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 567 - 330 Ancestor

The battle ended, and Li Shiming gathered the still intact bodies of two late-stage Golden Core cultivators, while the bodies of the other ten early to middle-stage Golden Core cultivators fell below, supported by the Four Phase Array.

Dozens of Divine Thoughts swept over, and all these bodies were collected, while their spatial items were stored separately.

There were no Spiritual Objects of interest to him in the spatial items, which did not surprise him at all, as ordinary Golden Core cultivators and sect Golden Core cultivators inherently had disparities.

Not to mention, among the sect Golden Core cultivators, he was also part of the small fraction with the wealthiest assets.

Just as he was about to collect the four Flying Boats and dismantle the Four Phase Array, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and a feeling of extreme danger arose in his heart.

In his feeling, dismantling the Four Phase Array would bring immense danger.

"Damn, are there still any cultivators from the Skywalk Trading Company outside?" Li Shiming muttered annoyedly.

He stopped the action of dismantling the Four Phase Array; with the array in place, cultivators outside were unable to perceive what was happening within.

But this situation wouldn’t last long, thinking that any existence outside capable of threatening him would soon realize something was amiss if the Four Phase Array were not dismantled.

Fortunately, his battle with the twelve Golden Core cultivators was exceedingly brief; if not for his desire to test various combat methods, he might have resolved the fight in just a few moments.

Even so, the entire battle had just passed in the time it took half an incense stick to burn.

Li Shiming took out his Identity Jade Disc and first sent a rescue message to his sect, stating his suspicion of the presence of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

His suspicion was not unfounded, for with his strength, even if the cultivator outside was a Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, he would not have felt such an intense sense of danger.

At least when facing a Golden Core cultivator of Great Elder level, he still had a way to escape.

As time was of the essence, after sending the message with his Identity Jade Disc, he began to consider how to escape.

While he hoped for his sect’s rescue, he could not place all his hopes on it.

Li Shiming took out a visor, which was a controller for drones high above.

However, he hadn’t positioned drones directly above him; he had only stationed a drone ten thousand meters above his sect to monitor his surroundings.

He hadn’t anticipated encountering trouble midway and hadn’t used the drones to accompany him.

Though the drones weren’t directly overhead, the visor contained enhanced radio waves that still enabled him to control the distant drone.

This was the advantage of using a new type of spirit stone motor; there was no worry about running out of power, and the combination of Artifact Refining methods with former world technological approaches in the materials for signal transmission devices enabled ultra-long-range remote control.

Originally, Li Shiming’s research focus was on deploying satellites in space, but the peculiar nature of this world prevented him from doing so.

Yet, as his research deepened, especially in the fields of Artifact Refining and technology, he finally found an alternative method.

If he had a few more months, he might have been able to place drones above the Righteous Path’s influence throughout the Beishu Continent, allowing him to monitor any location on the ground at any time.

Li Shiming divided part of his mind to operate the drone while he took ten bombs from the Mustard Seed Ring in his pocket dimension.

The ten bombs were failed experiments of his research; it was only because the Mustard Seed Ring had an enormous capacity of a trillion cubic meters that he could afford to throw all kinds of research by-products, useful or not, into the space.

Although only more than ten seconds had passed, his life-bound Magic Artifact, IBMz15, had already provided him with multiple solutions.

The life-bound Magic Artifact, IBMz15, would not make decisions for him; it was still up to him to choose a plan.

Although the bombs were failed products, they still had a name, dubbed Spirit Stone Bomb No.1 by him.

These were bombs powered by spirit stones as energy sources, but unfortunately, the Spiritual Energy within the spirit stones was extremely stable; he tried various methods to trigger the Spiritual Energy in the spirit stones, hoping it would burst forth instantly and unleash its maximum might.

Even achieving this, the power of the Spirit Stone Bomb was disappointing, estimated to be able to kill a group of Qi Refining Cultivators.

Spiritual Energy, indeed, was not an ideal explosive energy; without being transformed by a Formation or a Magic Artifact, the power it could unleash was limited. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Even the ten Spirit Stone Bomb No.1s he took out, though extremely impactful in their explosion, were weaker than the equivalent volume of explosives.

The reason he took out Spirit Stone Bomb No.1 now was not for its explosive force but because the explosion of Spirit Stone Bomb No.1 would cause intense fluctuations in Spiritual Energy, affecting cultivators’ ability to sense Spiritual Energy.

Under normal circumstances, this effect was akin to useless, but at this moment, Spirit Stone Bomb No.1 might affect the outside cultivators’ ability to accurately judge his position.

The reason this was a possibility was because neither Li Shiming nor his life-bound Magic Artifact, IBMz15, knew how strong the Nascent Soul Ancestor actually was; everything was based on possible analysis.

White lotuses began to rise beneath Li Shiming’s feet; he no longer cared about revealing ’Step by Step Lotus’ at this point.

With his current status, even if Qianye Temple learned he had mastered ’Step by Step Lotus,’ how would that matter? Qianye Temple dared to capture Li Yuan Ba because Li Yuan Ba was a cultivator of the Demon Sect Senluo Sect.

As a fellow cultivator of the Righteous Path, even if Qianye Temple suspected Li Shiming was the reincarnation of a great Buddhist figure, they would not venture to capture him.
