Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1493: Chapter 793: Strength

Li Yuanba opened his eyes and stopped cultivating the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique,’ continuously feeling the insights from his true self, Li Shiming.

During Li Shiming’s advancement to Great Cultivator, he perceived the Sword Intent Rule Imprint of ’Chaos Sword Intent’ through the ’Sword Intent Stele.’

Li Yuanba, who shares everything with Li Shiming, naturally accepted all of Li Shiming’s insights.

However, due to insufficient realm, the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ rules perceived by Li Yuanba felt like a flower in the realm, a moon in the water, without any foundation.

This ’Chaos Sword Intent’ rule only exists in his spiritual world and cannot be manifested in the outside world.

This feeling is quite uncomfortable, as if possessing invincible power, yet the power is confined within the body and cannot be released.

Of course, if he could truly manifest the rules of ’Chaos Sword Intent,’ he would become a Great Cultivator, not just a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner.

However, with the rules of ’Chaos Sword Intent,’ the difficulty of advancing to Great Cultivator would be greatly reduced.

Li Yuanba felt a hint of urgency; with the true self Li Shiming advancing to Great Cultivator, his clone must strive harder.

He pondered the connection through the ’Soul Recognition Contract Rune’ and sent instructions to Great Venerable Hongfa.

He planned to dedicate himself fully to closed-door cultivation in the coming days, no longer accepting alchemy commissions.

Previously, when accepting alchemy commissions, they were actually for the true self Li Shiming. Regardless, Li Shiming could effortlessly refine pills without delaying his cultivation.

But now it’s different, as Li Shiming has advanced to Great Cultivator; the suppression faced earlier will disappear with his higher realm.

Even if past enemies don’t let Li Shiming go, with Li Shiming’s martial power, unless a true titan makes a move, he fears no one.

Li Shiming doesn’t need to hide; he will personally handle future alchemy affairs and won’t linger near the mountain gate of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Xun Tan, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, hadn’t been undertaking any tasks recently, just awaiting the arrival of the new moon.

Every two days at the beginning of the month are the days when Li Yuanba accepts alchemy commissions.

Over the past twenty years, through constant alchemy for the Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators, Li Yuanba has significantly enhanced the overall strength of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators.

But appointing Li Yuanba for alchemy was extremely difficult; Xun Tan had to book two years in advance to get this chance.

"Xun Tan, Li Yuanba will enter full closed-door cultivation, all alchemy commissions stopped!" Just when Xun Tan was pondering the alchemy matters in a few days, he received a transmission from Great Venerable Hongfa in surprise.

"Senior Hongfa, I booked two years in advance; can you make an exception?" Xun Tan asked anxiously, surprised.

Without waiting for Hongfa’s response, he contacted other Sword Cultivators to inquire about the situation.

He found that all the Sword Cultivators who booked with him received the same transmission from Great Venerable Hongfa.

Even though Xun Tan was extremely disappointed, he understood clearly that Li Yuanba has contributed much for the Sword Cultivators.

The ideal way for normal cultivators to enhance their realm is by completely disengaging from external contact, and immersing fully in cultivation; this state yields the best results.

Li Yuanba, constantly emerging for two days every month, had considerable impact on his cultivation.

Over the past twenty years, Li Yuanba, single-handedly, elevated the overall spirit pill quality for Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators, granting conditions for the consumption of High Grade Fourth-Grade Spirit Pills to all Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators.

Many Sword Cultivators shared the same thoughts as Xun Tan. When this news spread, whether Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators or Great Cultivators felt somewhat disappointed, yet none disturbed Li Yuanba’s closed-door cultivation.

A year later, across ten thousand miles of the sea surrounding Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, a figure flew out.

This was none other than Li Shiming, who had stabilized his realm. He hovered over the sea, taking a deep breath of air filled with the scent of seawater.

Despite being in the Treasure Lotus Hall of the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven’s ’Heavenly Person Hall,’ rich in Spiritual Energy daily, being inside the Grotto Heaven differs significantly from the external world.

The outside world holds a nature absent from the Cave Heaven; the natural realm of heaven and earth makes him feel his existence; he is still alive.

Although he was not yet one hundred thirty years old, decades spent in closed-door cultivation added an extremely lengthy segment to his life, slowly affecting his mindset.

"Go home for a look!" Li Shiming’s first thought upon emerging from closed-door cultivation was to return home.

His home is naturally the Beishu Continent, where those he misses most reside.

Previously, he hesitated to return, fearing he would bring trouble back.

Now possessing self-preservation power, he experienced homesickness.

Not only did he miss Yin Shilan, but also his relatives on Sky Sea Island. Perhaps the previous stringent repression of insights led to his current urge not to linger even for a moment, desiring immediate return.

He shook his head; even though longing for an immediate return filled his heart, he rationally suppressed these thoughts; returning is inevitable, but before he returns, he must familiarize himself with the Great Cultivator’s martial might.

This year spent fully in closed-door cultivation, consuming dozens of high-level spirit pills for Great Cultivators, finally stabilized his realm.

It was only because he possessed a large supply of high-level spirit pills for Great Cultivators that he could stabilize Great Cultivator Realm in just a year; typically, Great Cultivators of superpower factions need at least a dozen or even decades to stabilize their realms upon initial advancement.
