Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 580 - 336 Break In_2

In an instant, Li Shiming unleashed his most powerful attack.

As a Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, he had seen through his avatar, Li Yuanba, how weak they were under Ancestor Lu of the Senluo Sect, as helpless as babies.

However, Li Shiming did not underestimate his opponent, for he only had the strength of the early stage of the Golden Core, even if the five Golden Cores in his body had formed the "Five Elements Qi Absorption Array", making his spiritual power comparable to the peak of the early stage of the Golden Core.

Between him and a Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, there was still a gap of two or three realms.

In the Golden Core Stage, it was only because of his extraordinary techniques that he could fight across realms against Golden Core Middle and Late Stage Cultivators.

Normally, the difference of a single realm between ordinary Golden Core cultivators was like the difference between heaven and earth.

This was the first time Li Shiming truly faced a Golden Core cultivator of this level, and he went all out without holding anything back.

That Golden Core cultivator was indeed affected by the "Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear".

In this regard, the effect of such a spiritual secret technique as "Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear" mainly depends on the spirit of the cultivator.

Li Shiming’s spirit could completely be compared to that of a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator, or even higher, given that when he broke through the Foundation Establishment Stage, he produced five Golden Cores and endured five Heavenly Thunders, receiving rewards from heaven and earth five times.

Spiritual attack secret techniques in the Golden Core Realm are quite rare to begin with, and this being the Heavenly Demon’s signature attack, even a Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator was not immune to it.

The Silver Corpse landed a blow on the back of the Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, while the Heart Sword struck his left shoulder and the White Feather Sword hit his right shoulder.

The Silver Corpse’s strike would have definitely pierced the heart of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator, and the Heart Sword and White Feather Sword would have cleaved into the shoulders, causing further extensive damage.

Li Shiming’s frontal sword strike, though somewhat weaker, was still formidable enough to inflict considerable injury, thanks to his cultivation of the "Sword Demon Secret Manual" and the small success of the Golden Core Stage "Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill".

Not to mention, ten "Supreme Mysterious Divine Thunders" were equivalent to an attack from ten Golden Core Early Stage Peak cultivators specializing in the Thunder Skill.

However, the outcome was beyond Li Shiming’s expectations; the Silver Corpse’s claws did not penetrate the Great Elder level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator’s body, instead, he was repelled by a terrifying rebound force.

Fortunately, the Silver Corpse had sufficient defensive power and was not significantly injured.

The Heart Sword and White Feather Sword struck the body of the Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, but they were stopped by his physique.

The ten "Supreme Mysterious Divine Thunders" converged upon the Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator, turning him into a ball of lightning.

Li Shiming was not affected by the lightning, not because he had activated "Heavenly Thunder Possession" in advance, but because he too was pushed away by the adversary’s defensive spiritual power.

"A Great Elder level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator!" Li Shiming thought in shock as he flew backward, his Divine Thought sensing that the opponent was uninjured and only marked by the barrage of lightning when he realized the enemy’s true nature.

Such existences were extremely rare even on the Beishu Continent.

Neither his own Shushan Sect nor Li Yuanba’s Senluo Sect, where his avatar was, had heard of such an existence.

A Great Elder level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator was completely different from an ordinary Great Elder level Golden Core cultivator—the strongest aspect of this Golden Core cultivator was his body.

Perhaps only in the Qianye Temple would there be Great Elder level Body Refining Golden Core cultivators, as the difficulty of cultivating the body to a step away from the Nascent Soul Stage was much harder than that of other cultivation techniques.

The main issue was that of resources, as it is indeed common to see Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators who practice Body Refinement.

Yet, as one reaches the Golden Core Stage, such cultivators become increasingly rare, and even those Golden Core cultivators who have practised Body Refining Techniques tend to treat it as secondary.

Even a resource-rich cultivator like Li Shiming did not consider reaching the Great Elder level through Body Refinement.

The resources required are truly vast; Tier 3 resources may not be sufficient. Upon reaching the late-stage Golden Core, if one wishes to advance their body refining techniques, one would likely need Tier 4 resources to be effective.

Li Shiming thought of the Tier 4 ’Heavenly Dew Immortal Milk’ he had obtained. Perhaps only a force like Skywalk Trading Company that could acquire Tier 4 ’Heavenly Dew Immortal Milk’ for body refinement would possess the means to nurture a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core.

If possible, perhaps this Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core could advance to the Nascent Soul Stage. By using body refinement to ascend to the Nascent Soul, not only would one possess the capabilities of the Nascent Soul Stage, but their body would also be exceptionally mighty, likely ranking amongst the top even within the Nascent Soul Stage.

Due to the IBMz15, his mind could come up with many ideas in an instant.

The Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator before him needed to be dealt with; should the enemy attack, Li Shiming didn’t know the extent of their offensive power, but he highly suspected his own defenses wouldn’t withstand it.

With a mere thought, the Fake Infant Body emerged in the server room space, conveniently landing on the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core’s body.

This was no coincidence; upon discovering that he could control the Fake Infant Body, he had been contemplating how to deploy it.

Having the Fake Infant Body directly engage in combat served little purpose besides being frightening.

In such a scenario, although the Fake Infant Body moved slowly, it had already assumed a hugging position first within the server room space and maintained it consistently.

Once the Fake Infant Body was summoned, it could immediately embrace the enemy.

At the Golden Core Stage, Li Shiming didn’t believe any cultivator could break free from the embrace of a Fake Infant Body.

The Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator woke up from the influence of ’Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear’, and he was both shocked and furious, never expecting to have been nearly assassinated in such a sly manner.

He was a secret weapon of Skywalk Trading Company and, upon demonstrating extraordinary talent in body refinement, had been given key support by the company.

Thereafter, he became part of the plan against the Beishu Continent and was sent to the Beishu Continent.

Basking in the finest resources from Skywalk Trading Company, he steadily enhanced his body refining strength. Once he ascended to Nascent Soul on the Beishu Continent, he would bolster the influence of Skywalk Trading Company through his native Nascent Soul cultivator’s physique.

Crucially, a Body Refining Nascent Soul possesses terrifying combat strength without worrying about the full exertion of Nascent Soul spiritual power causing irreversible environmental devastation.

The Body Refining Nascent Soul can harness the strength of a Nascent Soul, yet avoid substantial destruction. Pure physical power combined with speed meant that even Nascent Soul cultivators of the same rank had to be wary, not to mention lower-ranking cultivators.

In essence, the Body Refining Nascent Soul breaks free from constraints, unaffected by the battle restrictions placed on Nascent Souls within the mainland, posing a greater threat to all forces and thus wielding even greater influence.

Who could have expected that he would be earnestly cultivating here when Li Shiming suddenly appeared and almost killed him?

If not for the fact that Li Shiming’s cultivation level was too low, even if Li Shiming possessed the strength of a middle-stage Golden Core, the might of the ten strikes of ’Supreme Mysterious Divine Thunder’ could have severely injured him.

The eyes of the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator were filled with furious flames. Just as he was about to launch an attack on the retreating figure of Li Shiming, at that very moment, a figure embraced him.

Having absolute confidence in his own strength, he desperately tried to break free, yet he was shocked to discover that no matter what he did, the cultivator holding him remained immovable as a mountain.

A chill ran down his spine, and he was absolutely certain that no Golden Core cultivator should be able to endure his immense strength — such was the confidence of a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator.

Therefore, there was only one possibility: the one embracing him was not a Golden Core cultivator.

"Supervisor Feng Yi!" When he saw the face of the person holding him, he exclaimed in shock.

As an important member of the Skywalk Trading Company’s Beishu Continent branch, how could he not recognize Supervisor Feng Yi, his direct superior and an imposing figure of the Fake Infant Stage?

Supervisor Feng Yi had mysteriously vanished not long ago, which was why Patriarch Weng Zhao had traveled from the distant headquarters of Skywalk Trading Company across the sea. And now, he was seeing Supervisor Feng Yi here, a revelation that left him utterly astonished.
