Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1606: Chapter 849: Little Phoenix (Part 2)

Upon reaching his level, with just a sweep of his Divine Sense, he could determine the gender of this Red Gold Phoenix.

The little Red Gold Phoenix completely emerged from the eggshell, feeling an instinctive affection for Yin Shilan, uttering gentle chirps.

Yin Shilan’s face blossomed into a gentle smile, as if her heart was melting at that moment.

After interacting with the little Red Gold Phoenix for a while, she finally cast a Contract Rune that landed on the little Red Gold Phoenix.

The little Red Gold Phoenix was slightly startled, tilting its head as if pondering, but after understanding what the Contract Rune was, it let the rune into its body without hesitation.

"I can feel its presence!" Yin Shilan said joyfully.

The little Red Gold Phoenix responded to her, hopping onto her palm, chirping joyfully.

"Lan’er, this is a ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’, feed it to it, and you can give it a name while you’re at it!" Li Shiming took out a jade bottle and handed it over as he spoke.

Fortunately, they were well-prepared this time, considering the possibility of Yin Shilan contracting a Red Gold Phoenix.

"Since it’s a female phoenix, let’s call it Little Phoenix, it matches well with Little Feng’s name!" Yin Shilan thought for a while and said, then helplessly commented to Li Shiming, "The name Little Feng is really perfunctory, once Little Phoenix grows up, it will surely blame me!"

"I had just got Little Feng back then, intending it to be just a temporary name, but who knew Little Feng got accustomed to it, and the name couldn’t be changed!" Li Shiming hurried to explain, never admitting to being bad at naming.

Yin Shilan chuckled as she looked at Li Shiming, who was trying hard to defend himself.

She turned around, took out a ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’ from the jade bottle, and as soon as she did, Little Phoenix eagerly chirped, impatient to swallow the ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’.

"Don’t rush, it’s all for you!" Yin Shilan glanced at the ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’, understanding why Little Phoenix was so eager, she softly said.

Although it is a third-grade, this is a top-grade third-grade ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill.’

As long as there are enough top-grade third-grade ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pills’, Little Phoenix can quickly grow out of its infancy.

Little Phoenix is a third-grade spiritual pet even in its infancy, showcasing the terror of the powerful Phoenix Clan bloodline.

Once Little Phoenix matures, it will be an early fourth-grade spiritual pet, then it will form a true combat force.

Little Phoenix swallowed a top-grade third-grade ’Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’ in one gulp, its newborn body absorbing the energy within, yet unable to fully digest it.

Little Phoenix’s body swayed slightly before it settled in Yin Shilan’s palm and fell asleep.

Yin Shilan gently caressed Little Phoenix’s feathers with her hand, wanting it to sleep more peacefully.

"Shiming, Master wants me to stay at Luanyang Palace for three months before going back, during which time she will guide me to receive the core legacy of Luanyang Palace!" Yin Shilan discussed in a consultative tone.

She couldn’t reside long term at Luanyang Palace, which was agreed upon before her entry.

However, the three-month duration exceeded her original plan, in which she assumed she could return to Dongqi Continent after just a month.

No one expected that upon entry she became a core cultivator, raising the legacy she could receive to core legacy, and also because of Little Phoenix, the Red Gold Phoenix, Luanyang Palace had corresponding legacies to learn.

"Listen to your Master’s words in Luanyang Palace, I’ve prepared some Spirit Pills for you, for your usual reciprocation, and also take these two jade talismans with you!" Li Shiming wouldn’t oppose as receiving the core legacy of Luanyang Palace held great benefits for Yin Shilan.

He took out a few jade bottles and two jade talismans and handed them to Yin Shilan.

Yin Shilan accepted the jade bottles, opening one, discovering that the Spirit Pills inside were for female cultivators, mainly used for skin care, smoothing hair, etc.

Male cultivators wouldn’t pay attention to these, Li Shiming must have specially prepared them for her.

Although these Spirit Pills were only third-grade, all were at least high-grade quality, and one bottle had a top-grade third-grade quality.

As for the two jade talismans, she recognized them as Great Ability Life-saving Jade Talismans, a notch higher in quality than the Great Cultivator Life-saving Jade Talisman Luanyang Palace awarded her after becoming a core cultivator.

"I’ll use the top-grade third-grade ones myself!" Yin Shilan set aside that bottle of top-grade third-grade Spirit Pills and said.

"Lan’er, you’ve taken the ’Youthful Elixir’, you don’t need these types of Spirit Pills!" Li Shiming analyzed from the perspective of an Alchemy Master.

Yin Shilan rolled her eyes at Li Shiming, realizing it was indeed as he said, these Spirit Pills were prepared as gifts for others on her behalf.

In the coming days, not only was Li Shiming busy, but Yin Shilan was busy too.

Yin Shilan needed to receive the core legacy of Luanyang Palace, often unable to come to Fengqi Palace for over ten consecutive days.

Meanwhile, Li Shiming was constantly visited by cultivators, with hardly a moment of leisure.

Growing somewhat irritated, he took the opportunity while Yin Shilan was receiving the legacy to leave Luanyang Palace with five late-stage Golden Corpses.

This time, he headed towards the vicinity of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

After departing Luanyang Palace, he put away the five late-stage Golden Corpses and used the ’Distance as Close as a Step’ to head towards faraway places.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to use ’Instantaneous Step,’ but using ’Phantom Doppelganger’ to perform ’Instantaneous Step’ was vastly inefficient.

’Instantaneous Step’ consumed a lot, though ’Phantom Doppelganger’ could replenish inner energy, repeatedly performing ’Instantaneous Step’ meant stopping to recover energy.

Moreover, as ’Phantom Doppelganger’ couldn’t use ’Divine Vision Skill,’ his vision range was limited, making ’Instantaneous Step’ not much farther than ’Distance as Close as a Step.’

Yet using ’Phantom Doppelganger’ to perform Divine Foot Skill was an immensely unique experience.

Every time he used ’Distance as Close as a Step,’ he could sense the Divine Power Rune fluctuations on the doppelganger Nascent Soul related to the ’Divine Foot Skill.’

This offered insights akin to what ordinary Great Cultivators experienced when performing Divine Foot Skill, unable to manage multiple Divine Foot Skills simultaneously, just like ordinary Great Cultivators.

This instead gave him a deeper understanding of Divine Foot Skill, gaining new perception from a different angle.

When he arrived at Luanyang Palace, among all the superpowers of the Central Continent, no representative Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion Great Cultivator visited, only several individual Sword Cultivator Great Cultivators came to see him.

Possibly due to the presence of Li Yuanba, an Alchemy Master at Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, they didn’t need to deliberately establish connections with Li Shiming, another Alchemy Master.

Li Shiming’s journey to Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s vicinity was to meet with his doppelganger Li Yuanba and supply him with Spirit Pills.

Upon returning to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, all Nascent Soul Middle Stage Spirit Pills were left to him for alchemy, resulting in him acquiring quite a few Nascent Soul Middle Stage Top-grade Spirit Pills.

Over the years, he accumulated a significant amount of Nascent Soul Middle Stage Top-grade Spirit Pills, urgently needed by Li Yuanba.

Li Yuanba recently had been in seclusion cultivating, progressing well in his cultivation, yet still quite away from Nascent Soul Middle Stage Peak.

To rapidly break into the Great Cultivator Realm, the best way was to consume Nascent Soul Middle Stage Top-grade Spirit Pills.

The ’Phantom Doppelganger’ adeptly flew to an undersea cave mansion, thousands of miles from Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

Not long did he need to wait before the doppelganger Li Yuanba arrived at the undersea cave mansion.

The two doppelgangers met, exchanged a glance and couldn’t help but laugh.

"This late-stage Golden Corpse is for you!" The ’Phantom Doppelganger’ handed a late-stage Golden Corpse to Li Yuanba.

"These five mid-stage Golden Corpses are for you!" Li Yuanba handed over five mid-stage Golden Corpses as he spoke.

Until he ascends to the Great Cultivator, Li Yuanba would remain in seclusion, encountering troubles wasn’t frequent, but if troubles did arise, they’d be significant ones.

The late-stage Golden Corpse provided Li Yuanba a robust self-preservation method, yet ideally unused, as its usage might easily reveal its origins.

The mid-stage Golden Corpses, however, would be returned to Li Shiming for attempts at advancing the mid-stage Golden Corpses.
