Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1578: Chapter 835: Schemes (Part 2)

Perhaps in Li Shiming’s mind, as long as one reaches the Nascent Soul Middle Stage on the Beishu Continent, they can completely suppress any Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Do you want me to take action?" Xiao Lu looked at the Nascent Soul Ancestors and asked.

"With Senior’s help, we have a better chance of capturing Li Shiming, and then we can share the Secret of Cave Heaven together!" Elder Li said in a deep voice.

The Nascent Soul Ancestors had already discussed on the way to use the Secret of Cave Heaven to persuade Xiao Lu to assist. Once they obtained the Cave Heaven, they would then discuss the specific distribution matters.

"I am still very interested in the Cave Heaven, so I will go with you!" Xiao Lu said boldly, and he intentionally did not discuss the specific distribution of the Cave Heaven, just as he usually presented himself.

All the ancestors looked at each other and felt that this invitation went too smoothly.

But at this point, handling the matter with Li Shiming was the most important.

Since knowing that Li Shiming was asking them to return ten times the items taken from Yin Shilan, they knew there was no turning back.

In Li Shiming’s understanding, ten times was a very small amount, but for the impoverished Beishu Continent, including the Golden Core Middle Late Stage, the relatively large quantity of Golden Core resources, as well as some higher-grade magical treasures, multiplying by ten, even if all Nascent Soul Ancestors took out their possessions, it would not be enough.

The most significant part was the batch of high-quality Spirit Pills in Yin Shilan’s hands. Not to mention ten times, they couldn’t even repay the original amount.

Additionally, Li Shiming was connected to the Secret of Cave Heaven. Over the years, Xiao Lu had gathered a lot of information about the Cave Heaven, which gave them more understanding of the Cave Heaven.

It was precisely because of their understanding of the Cave Heaven that they were more aware of what it could bring them.

Interests move people’s hearts, and even though Li Shiming showed terrifying strength, greed still led them to unite.

Soon, a luxurious team of cultivators, led by Nascent Soul Middle Stage Xiao Lu, followed by eight Nascent Soul cultivators, set off towards the Thousand Illusion Sect on the Beishu Continent.

To avoid alerting the enemy, the other Nascent Soul cultivators did not notify the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Sect.

As for Patriarch Ge of the Thousand Illusion Sect, since it involved her disciple, she would never come forward. If the other ancestors of the Thousand Illusion Sect knew they were planning to place the battlefield in the Thousand Illusion Sect, they would never agree.

"Have you chosen? How about this cultivation technique?" Ren Fei’er came over holding a Jade Scroll and asked.

Li Shiming glanced and saw that Ren Fei’er had a keen eye, choosing one of the Fuliu Sect’s Inheritance Techniques. This cultivation technique had complete experience and insights and could be practiced directly to the Mahayana Realm.

He reached out into the void and grabbed, and more than a dozen Jade Scrolls flew out of the Book Collection Pavilion. These were all related experiences and insights of the cultivation technique.

"Take these and finish reading them first. After you finish, I will explain the precautions to you and help you protect your cultivation as you rebuild!" Li Shiming said, pushing more than a dozen Jade Scrolls over to Ren Fei’er.

Not to mention other things, just for the hundred years Ren Fei’er spent accompanying Yin Shilan, Li Shiming was willing to compensate Ren Fei’er.

He lacked no resources, and as long as Ren Fei’er needed for cultivation, he could supply.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" Ren Fei’er expressed her delight after checking the ten Jade Scrolls.

The content in these Jade Scrolls could help her quickly become familiar with the cultivation technique.

It should be noted that a simple understanding mistake with such a high-level cultivation technique could lead to going astray.

Not all cultivators have a life-bound treasure like IBMz15 to help. It not only can help him detect problems in cultivation techniques but also find issues in his practice, greatly reducing the occurrence of errors.

Watching Ren Fei’er leave with the Jade Scrolls, Li Shiming couldn’t help shaking his head.

"It’s really hard for her!" Li Shiming knew how strong-willed Ren Fei’er was, but voluntarily confining herself here with Yin Shilan almost made her lose hope for cultivation. Now, Ren Fei’er seemed to have regained hope.

Li Shiming looked at Yin Shilan again, sensing her still in the Book Collection Pavilion.

He found that Yin Shilan was not reading those cultivation technique books but was standing in the array formation books section, holding a Jade Scroll immersed in it.

"When enough Elixir Pills are available, let Lan’er enter the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven for a period of closed cultivation, let’s raise her cultivation level first!" Li Shiming would only let Yin Shilan know about the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven. The fewer people who knew he had the Cave Heaven, the better.

As for the Half-Life Cave Heaven and Thunder Cave Heaven, they needed no mention to Yin Shilan as they had no benefit for her.

And Ren Fei’er, he didn’t intend to let her know many secrets.

Although he had the power to protect himself, he was not invincible in the Cultivation World, especially now with Yin Shilan as his Daoist couple, safety became even more crucial.

He didn’t disturb Yin Shilan’s interest, continuing to refine elixirs while watching Yin Shilan, enjoying a peaceful and beautiful time that made his heart exceedingly calm.

Until evening, Li Shiming took out Third Grade Spirit Fruit and prepared Third Grade Spirit Tea, which he specially retrieved from the ’Mountain and River Qiankun Fan’ planting treasure.

Without the ’Mountain and River Qiankun Fan,’ he really wouldn’t have Third Grade Spirit Fruit and Spirit Tea.

He called Yin Shilan, who was immersed in array formation books, intentionally not calling Ren Fei’er this time.

"Lan’er, your body is somewhat depleted. I plan for you to enter closed cultivation in ten days. From today, you must drink a pot of Spirit Tea and eat a plate of Spirit Fruit daily to recover!" Li Shiming had checked Yin Shilan’s condition, making this plan according to the analysis of his life-bound treasure IBMz15.

Due to a lack of resources, in a hundred years, Yin Shilan’s body was notably weaker than a normal Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator.

Of course, Li Shiming’s view was compared to the Golden Core Middle Stage of super forces, not to that of the Beishu Continent.

Yin Shilan’s cultivation talent was not low, as shown by her quick promotion to the Golden Core Stage with Li Shiming’s resources back then.

For the depletion of her body, if it were someone else, Li Shiming would choose a more forceful approach using body strengthening spirit pills.

But the gentlest and least fundamentally damaging way was his planned daily intake of Third Grade Spirit Fruit and Spirit Tea.

The ’Mountain and River Qiankun Fan’ produces Third Grade Spirit Fruit once a year, enough for Yin Shilan for a period. After some time, he wouldn’t need to worry about Third Grade resources as they would be continuously supplied.

"Every day?" Yin Shilan looked at the full plate of Third Grade Spirit Fruit and the enticingly fragrant pot of Third Grade Spirit Tea. This time she didn’t speak of wastefulness but instead spoke softly with a deep sense of happiness.

"Don’t worry, it won’t bankrupt me!" Li Shiming laughed heartily.

Li Shiming noticed Yin Shilan didn’t even have a decent magical treasure. While he maintained a smile, his heart was deeply troubled.

He didn’t immediately prepare a magical treasure for Yin Shilan but planned to wait until she reached the Nascent Soul Stage to prepare the top-tier life-bound treasure for her.

In his view, the Golden Core Stage, as a transitional phase, was not important.

With a vision far beyond that of the Beishu Continent’s cultivators and standing at the height of a Great Cultivator, with sufficient resources, it wasn’t difficult to rapidly advance a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator to the Nascent Soul Stage.

By using resources equivalent to cultivating ten Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators on Yin Shilan, her cultivation level could increase tremendously in a short time.

And a hundred years of tempering was perhaps good for Yin Shilan, making her mind even more transparent.

Yin Shilan’s mindset was the reason Li Shiming believed she could advance to the Nascent Soul Stage in a hundred years; now, after a century of tempering, this mindset was even more pronounced.

Li Shiming even felt that Yin Shilan surpassed him in terms of mindset. Unlike Yin Shilan’s peaceful nature, if he had been suppressed by a sect for a hundred years, he might turn the sect upside down.

Thinking of this made Li Shiming feel aggrieved, as he couldn’t do much against the Thousand Illusion Sect despite Yin Shilan’s reluctance.
