Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 582 - 337 Possession_2

According to the analysis of the life-bonded magical treasure IBMz15, a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator’s defense was nearly impregnable.

However, there was no absolute defense, his mental weakness had been very obvious before.

Of course, the mental weakness of a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator is relative. Compared to other Golden Core cultivators, even those of the same level, his spirit was deemed adequate.

But facing a cultivator like Li Shiming, who had mastered spiritual attack secret techniques, his spirit appeared somewhat weak.

Indeed, after "Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear" broke through his defense, the melody of the "Heavenly Sound Annihilation Dao Zither" took effect.

The "Annihilation Melody" led him into an illusion, Li Shiming seldom used the "Heavenly Sound Annihilation Dao Zither" to draw enemies into illusions.

When Li Shiming used the "Heavenly Sound Annihilation Dao Zither," he mainly relied on sound waves to directly harm the enemy, leading them into illusions was simply too time-consuming.

The enemies he had encountered before were either too strong for him to face, or so weak that he could dispatch them easily; there was no need for him to be serious.

The eyes of the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator lost focus; he had fallen into the illusion created by Li Shiming.

The illusion was created by the life-bonded magical treasure IBMz15, restoring a past life nightclub scene before his eyes; for someone from the Cultivation Office, the sight of a group of scantily clad women twisting their bodies and exposing their postures had a great impact on him.

Even the witches of the Demon Sect would not act this way in public, let alone hundreds of women doing so together.

He forgot everything about himself and, driven by the melody, joined in with these men and women, indulging just as they did. freewebnσvel.cøm

Li Shiming had studied creating illusions; the main methods in the Cultivation World involve sound and color, wealth or cultivation resources, power, or stirring the desires in a cultivator’s heart.

The last method, stirring the desires within a cultivator’s heart, was the hardest; it required understanding the cultivator’s true nature first.

Li Shiming had not yet reached that level; he opted for the most basic method of creating sound and color illusions.

The reason he chose a past life nightclub scene, rather than the common methods used in the Cultivation World, was based on comparisons.

Creating sound and color illusions in the Cultivation World is usually based on the dances of Demon Sect female cultivators performing the Heavenly Demon Dance, with some details added.

Li Shiming, having experienced the information explosion of his past life, looked down on these kinds of illusions.

A past life’s nightclub scene, now that was a true pandemonium; entering it, even most of those who experienced it would lose themselves, let alone cultivators who had never seen such a form of entertainment.

In the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator fell into a deep state of lostness, his spirit completely open.

Li Shiming, through his connection with the Heavenly Ghost from his Nascent Soul Body, felt no resistance coming from the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator.

Li Shiming issued a command, and the Heavenly Ghost flew out from the Nascent Soul Body, entering the body of the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator.

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for the Heavenly Ghost to control a Great Elder Level Golden Core cultivator, but with his spirit lost and devoid of any resistance, it was easily done.

Once the Heavenly Ghost entered the body of the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator, it began to devour his spiritual power incessantly.

Li Shiming intensified the illusion on his end, trapping him firmly within it. As the Heavenly Ghost consumed his spiritual power, his spirit weakened slowly, and the impact of the illusion on him grew stronger.

The formidable Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core cultivator continued to sink under this assault, plummeting into an abyss from which he could not extricate himself.

Until his consciousness disappeared, he did not manage any resistance.

The formidable defensive power protected his body, but it couldn’t protect his consciousness. The Heavenly Ghost successfully possessed him.

From the feedback from the Heavenly Ghost, Li Shiming felt the ease of the Heavenly Ghost, which was far less strenuous than possessing a False Infant Body.

During the entire process, since Li Shiming had not really harmed the other cultivator’s body, and the Heavenly Ghost had devoured the spirit of a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator without causing any damage to the body as well,

the body of the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator was not injured at all and was still alive, if being in the state of a living dead, where the soul itself has disappeared from the body, counts as being alive.

Li Shiming shook his head; he had finally witnessed the strength of a Great Elder Level Golden Core Cultivator. He had been a frog in a well, underestimating the cultivators of the world.

The Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator in front of him, whose name he didn’t even know, was probably unknown to most on the Beishu Continent.

But such a Golden Core Cultivator had such strong abilities that, if Li Shiming hadn’t had a variety of methods, he might have had to flee in defeat today.

He walked up to the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator and probed into his body with his Divine Thought.

It was only because the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator no longer had a soul that he was able to probe the body of such a high-level cultivator without any reservations.

He did not know what Body Refining Techniques this Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator cultivated, but his body’s tissues, from inside out, were completely filled with patterns made of spiritual power.

This body was almost similar to the Fake Infant Bodies he had seen before, but a Fake Infant Body was ultimately a whole major realm above this body, surpassing it in strength and defensive power.

What surprised Li Shiming the most was that the Golden Core inside the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator was still present and hadn’t been destroyed along with the dispersal of the cultivator’s soul, remaining full of spiritual power.

This Body Refining Cultivator’s Golden Core was connected with numerous spiritual power routes to every part of the body, which on closer inspection, was connected to the Body Refining patterns spread throughout the entire body, always ready to supply spiritual power to the patterns.

This phenomenon was extremely rare in the Cultivation World, as normally, the Golden Core of an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator would perish along with the cultivator’s death.

Even for Golden Core Cultivators whose souls disappeared due to a soul attack, their bodies would instinctively cause the Golden Core to dissipate naturally before the soul’s consciousness vanished.

But the situation of a Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator was the most unusual, as he had been possessed by a Heavenly Ghost during an illusion.

When possessed by a Heavenly Ghost, the Heavenly Ghost used deception, causing the body to believe the Heavenly Ghost was the original owner’s soul.

Therefore, after the original owner’s soul perished, the body did not let the Golden Core dissipate naturally but was deceived into believing that the soul of the body’s owner still existed.

Of course, this involved a lot of coincidences; firstly, such beings as Heavenly Ghosts are extremely rare fusion organisms, and their possessing ability is unique.

Secondly, the Great Elder Level Body Refining Golden Core Cultivator mainly focused on Body Refinement and did not cultivate any spirit-related techniques, which made it so that his soul did not produce any resistance when the Heavenly Ghost possessed him.

"I’ll study this further later!" Li Shiming took the Space Ring of the Body Refining Golden Core casually, not continuing to study the body further.

The Space Ring had spiritual protection from the Body Refining Golden Core, but unfortunately, because its original soul had perished, the spiritual protection on the Space Ring was rapidly dissipating.

Li Shiming’s Divine Thought easily entered the Space Ring, where he saw the Spiritual Objects inside.

The Spiritual Objects inside the Space Ring were very simple—two jade bottles, both spatially endowed. One was labeled Body Refining Spirit Liquid, and the other labeled Body Refining Spirit Pill, with no detailed description, but the names indicated their functions.

A huge battle-ax treasure, the kind for two-handed use, extremely rare among cultivators for close-range combat.

A Jade Scroll, upon entering his Divine Thought, he discovered the Jade Scroll contained a Body Refining Technique, "Mountain Opening Dominating Body Technique."

"Mountain Opening Dominating Body Technique" was a top-tier Body Refining Technique, which could be cultivated up to the Nascent Soul Stage, and the Jade Scroll also contained the cultivation experiences of predecessors, making it a complete Body Refining legacy that could be considered complete even in a major sect.
