Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1717: Chapter 905: Great Power

The cultivation of a Peak Great Cultivator made the Spiritual Power Pattern within Li Shiming’s five Nascent Souls reach an extremely vast level, so casting "One Step to Arrival" put no pressure on him at all.

His figure flickered in the void again and again, and with him mobilizing five brains to prepare "One Step to Arrival," every time he appeared in the void, only a single afterimage would show up before he was transmitted away again by "One Step to Arrival."

This also meant that those Cultivators who wanted to probe his position no longer had the chance; unless they encountered a Cultivator at Great Cultivator level, ordinary Cultivators simply could not sense his figure during the teleportation process.

Even though the number of Great Cultivators in the Cloud Island Sea was large, the probability of him, on his way, revealing himself once every eight thousand li and just happening to meet a Great Cultivator was still far too small.

So all the way until he approached the inner-circle sea region of the Cloud Island Sea, he had not been discovered again.

In this direction, the closest superpower was the Purple Cloud Sect, and he deliberately avoided the range of the Purple Cloud Sect’s mountain gate.

In fact, once he reached the inner-circle sea region of the Cloud Island Sea, he already realized how strong the Cloud Island Sea’s control over the ocean was.

In this stretch of sea, one could see Cultivators’ sea ships on the surface from time to time; some Cultivators whose cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage busied themselves on the ships, frequently diving into the sea to search for something.

This place was very far from any large island; over on the Dongqi Continent side, for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, not to mention venturing deep into the ocean, even the shallow coastal waters were extremely dangerous.

Since Foundation Establishment Cultivators could appear here, it meant that the Cultivators of the Cloud Island Sea had completely conquered this area; the ocean here had become a resource ground for Cultivators.

He did not disturb these Cultivators; he merely observed for a while, then continued to cast "One Step to Arrival" and headed forward.

At last, he saw the central region of the Cloud Island Sea; the reason the Cloud Island Sea bore this name was precisely because of the central region.

Cloud Island was the name of the central region; Li Shiming had read records about Cloud Island in ancient texts, but truly seeing Cloud Island still filled him with extreme astonishment.

Cloud Island was not a single island, but a cluster of islands; unlike any islands he had seen before, the islands of Cloud Island were enveloped by vast layers of cloud.

From afar, when he was still a thousand li away from Cloud Island, dense mist and cloud had already appeared above the sea surface.

The clouds and mist floated above the sea, forming a special kind of scenery.

Li Shiming flew into the cloud-mist and discovered that there was a kind of repulsive force within; of course, this level of repulsion could not stop him, but the sensation of entering the cloud-mist was very unpleasant.

These clouds and mist contained a special kind of force field that could disrupt a Cultivator’s sense of direction; once one entered the cloud-mist, it would cause the Cultivator to lose their sense of direction.

He had the help of the IBMz15, which could still point out the way for him, so it didn’t affect him much.

In truth, one wouldn’t be truly unable to get out once inside the cloud-mist; it would just be troublesome and require constant attempts in all directions. Once one managed to fly out of the cloud-mist from above, they could regain their sense of direction.

He felt a great sense of novelty; there actually existed such wondrous clouds and mist in the world.

When he saw the first island, he finally understood what was even more wondrous.

An island that was not particularly large appeared ahead of him; he saw that the island was floating above the cloud-mist. He wasn’t mistaken—"Divine Eye Sight" allowed him to faintly see through a certain section of the cloud-mist and make out the things within.

He saw very clearly that beneath the island were the clouds and mist, and within the cloud-mist under the island there was empty air.

Most of the humans living on this island were mortals; this was also his first time seeing mortals since coming to the Cloud Island Sea.

Mortals also had ships, and these ships sailed atop the cloud-mist; viewed from afar, it looked as though they were flying, but given the repulsive force of this cloud-mist, in truth there was no essential difference between the ships and sailing on the sea surface.

The further inward he went, the larger the islands Li Shiming saw became, and the more numerous they were.

The mortals here lived on these islands, using ships upon the cloud-mist to travel and communicate between islands.

Li Shiming landed on a relatively large island, and using the ability of the robe on his body, he altered its style to match the clothing of the residents here.

He walked into the city on the island just like a mortal.

If not for this city being above the cloud-mist, he would have thought this was just an ordinary city from the previous Cultivation World.

His Divine Sense swept casually and he discovered that the classics and doctrines studied by the mortals here were no different from those of mortals in the former Cultivation World.

He couldn’t help but show a smile; the classics and doctrines these mortals studied were ones he had recited when he was a child.

It seemed that this Cloud Island Sea and the world he came from must share some kind of connection, otherwise it would be impossible for the mortals’ doctrines to be the same.

Thinking of the environment of the Cloud Island Sea, and of how the powerful forces here were all stationed around the inner and outer perimeters of Cloud Island, forming several layers of defense to protect the mortals of Cloud Island, he suddenly lost the desire to cause destruction.

Originally, according to his thinking, he was going to give the six superpowers a lesson they would never forget.

His figure flickered, and he disappeared from the mortal city; no mortals around noticed this at all.

In the time that followed, he traveled around the central region of Cloud Island, admiring this rare mode of living.

He did not know that his entering the central region of Cloud Island had caused the search targeting him to come up empty.

Several Great Beings had even dispatched their avatars, all for the sake of finding him.
