Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1503: Chapter 798: Outside the Sect

When parting with Liu Ziyun, Li Shiming was accompanied only by Great Cultivator Luo Pei, Little Feng, and the Illusion Spirit Dragon. Eleven ’Silver Winged Spirit Gu Insects’ were stored inside his robe.

The binding force of a contract is still very strong; both great cultivators used their own rule power to sign the contract. If breached, the contract’s backlash would be terrifying.

Li Shiming did not expect that, in the end, he would hand back the long-distance commerce fleet he took from the Central State Commerce unscathed.

This manager in charge of the Dongqi Continent’s Central State Commerce branch, Liu Ziyun, is truly extraordinary. Through one exchange, not only did he not become an enemy of Li Shiming, but he also gained enormous benefits from it.

"Looks like I’ll have to stay in the Dongqi Continent for a year this time!" Li Shiming murmured to himself.

But it is very worthwhile. Five long-distance flying boats and their cargo are sufficient to exchange for the resources needed for Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon to ascend, and even the resources needed after their ascension can be partially resolved.

It should be known that five long-distance flying boats and their cargo can almost match the foundation of a major sect.

In the Dongqi Continent, those that can be called major sects, the major sects here refer to the strength standards recognized by the cultivation world, are only the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, Taichu Sect, Lianhua Temple, and Sun Concealing Sect.

This shows how valuable the power Li Shiming seized is, which is why he was unwilling to give up halfway and brought the five long-distance flying boats to the Dongqi Continent.

Li Shiming took out the ’White Emperor Light Cloud Boat’ and flew towards the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

The closer he got to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, the more excited he became.

However, when he was a few thousand miles away from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, he noticed something unusual.

In this area, there were many Nascent Soul cultivators flying, and these Nascent Soul cultivators were not from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

Judging by the markings on these Nascent Soul cultivators’ robes, there were ones from the Taichu Sect, and the Sun Concealing Sect, and those wearing monk robes were undoubtedly venerable figures from the Lianhua Temple.

This place is very close to the mountain gate of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, and it is definitely part of their core territory. Now, it is boldly occupied by cultivators from three sects, indicating just how precarious the situation of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect is.

"Little Feng, Illusion Spirit Dragon, drive them away; kill any who don’t leave!" Li Shiming issued an order to Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon.

Although Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon played a minor role on the Central State Continent, this does not mean their strength is weak.

As spiritual pets with the strongest bloodlines of the Phoenix and Dragon Clans, their strength can completely rival cultivators at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Peak, and they can even engage briefly with great cultivators.

Know that the great cultivators of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect relied on cooperation with Fourth Grade Middle Stage spiritual pets, being able to suppress same-level great cultivators by fighting two against one.

Li Shiming did not plan to take action; there were no great cultivators sighted in this area, and Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon were more than sufficient to handle it.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon rarely fought. Upon receiving the order, they let out a dragon’s roar and a phoenix’s cry, flying towards the Nascent Soul cultivators in the sky.

"Be careful, it’s the spirit beasts of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect!" Before long, Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon approached those Nascent Soul cultivators, and one of them discovered Little Feng, shouting a warning.

Unfortunately, the most terrifying is not Little Feng. Being a Red Gold Phoenix, its ’Nirvana Fire’ possesses the power to burn souls, but the Illusion Spirit Dragon was in an invisible state, and not even the divine sense of Nascent Soul cultivators could detect the presence of the Illusion Spirit Dragon.

Only a great cultivator’s divine sense could discover the Fourth Grade Middle Stage Illusion Spirit Dragon, and once it ascends to Late Stage Fourth Grade, even great cultivators will find it impossible to detect the Illusion Spirit Dragon using their divine sense.

The Illusion Spirit Dragon did not need to employ special techniques; its dragon claws possess strong armor-piercing effects. These relatively weak Nascent Soul cultivators, even with protective magical artifacts, could not withstand a single strike of its claws.

"Ah!" A scream rang out. As the alerted Nascent Soul cultivator was observing the situation and preparing to deal with Little Feng together, the Nascent Soul cultivator who initially gave the warning was inexplicably torn apart by the Illusion Spirit Dragon.

At the last moment, this Nascent Soul cultivator attempted a Nascent Soul Emergence, trying to manipulate the nascent soul to escape.

However, they were greeted with the breath of the Illusion Spirit Dragon, and the nascent soul was directly hit, perishing on the spot.

The Illusion Spirit Dragon, appearing due to its attack, twisted its body slightly, and once again vanished.

At this moment, Little Feng also launched an attack; its wings suddenly flapped twice, causing its speed to increase severalfold.

Several Nascent Soul cultivators who were focusing on trying to form a battle array found Little Feng appearing among them before they could combine their forces.

A ’Nirvana Fire’ danced and soared up from Little Feng’s feathers; every illusory feather was a bloom of ’Nirvana Fire’.

The flying fiery feathers seemed intelligent, flying toward three of the closest Nascent Soul cultivators, and although their speed seemed slow, in reality, they blocked much of the evasion space during the flight.

Seeing a fire attack, three Nascent Soul cultivators immediately took out defensive magical artifacts to defend themselves. Among them, a Water-attribute Nascent Soul cultivator employed Water-Based Magic, hoping to extinguish the fire on the feathers.

The other two Nascent Soul cultivators also utilized other methods to try to deflect the approaching fiery feathers.

But clearly, they were unaware of the renown of the ’Nirvana Fire’; if they knew they were facing the ’Nirvana Fire’, they definitely wouldn’t have taken such actions.

The Red Gold Phoenix is famous, but not all Red Gold Phoenixes possess the ’Nirvana Fire’.
