Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1873 - 983: Leaving Seclusion

Today is a special day; Yin Shilan has emerged from seclusion.

This time, Yin Shilan’s seclusion lasted a full forty-five years.

Although forty-five years of seclusion might seem long, achieving the Peak Great Cultivator Realm this quickly is exceptionally fast.

Her talents weren’t considered exceptionally high, so less energy was required for her Nascent Soul to reach the Peak Great Cultivator Realm.

Of course, Yin Shilan’s rapid advancement to Peak Great Cultivator must be credited to Li Shiming’s phantom avatar.

The phantom avatar has spent nearly uninterrupted time over these forty-five years explaining the rules to Yin Shilan, allowing her to match the Peak Great Cultivator Realm’s understanding of the rules.

It’s estimated that no other cultivator in the Cultivation World could achieve this.

Firstly, cultivators are generally unwilling to easily share their precious experiences, especially their insights into the rules, as these are derived from their own research into cultivation techniques.

In fact, teaching their insights about the rules to other cultivators is extremely difficult.

Insights into the rules are hard to explain, and even if explained, they are very difficult for other cultivators to accept.

Every cultivator’s understanding of the rules has its own characteristics and is not one-size-fits-all.

In the Cultivation World, the method of teaching rule comprehension is through lectures. In this form, one explains the cultivation techniques they excel in, and it depends on how much other cultivators can understand.

But the explanation of the phantom avatar was different; Yin Shilan fully disclosed her comprehension of the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique,’ which led IBMz15 to conduct a special study, summarizing a method of rule transmission for Yin Shilan, combined with Li Shiming’s own rule comprehension.

Yin Shilan stepped out from the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven, and as she had just advanced, she was not yet proficient in controlling her own aura.

So, a surge of Peak Great Cultivator aura leaked from her body. Although this was her cave abode, it was also within the grand formation of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. As soon as this unfamiliar Peak Great Cultivator aura appeared, it was noticed by several Great Cultivators of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

"Lan’er, congratulations!" Li Shiming said with a smile as he looked at Yin Shilan.

Despite forty-five years of seclusion, the two were actually together every day; Li Shiming accompanied Yin Shilan with his phantom avatar.

Looking at Yin Shilan before him, whose demeanor remained calm at the Peak Great Cultivator Realm, Little Phoenix perched on Yin Shilan’s shoulder.

Little Phoenix’s presence was well-hidden; at the Late Stage Fourth Grade, her realm was equivalent to Yin Shilan’s.

This was not surprising; the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique’ was cultivated alongside Little Phoenix, complementing each other.

Though Yin Shilan was a Peak Great Cultivator not known for her combat skills, her actual combat power was impressive.

As she had a Red Gold Phoenix Little Phoenix at the peak of the Late Stage Fourth Grade, Little Phoenix alone could overpower most Peak Great Cultivators.

And Yin Shilan herself, with a spirit treasure, could not be underestimated in her combat performance.

"We have more time together now!" Yin Shilan said with a gentle smile.

It seemed her motivation to advance to the Peak Great Cultivator was to spend more time with Li Shiming.

Li Shiming felt a moment of tenderness in his heart. He gently embraced Yin Shilan; neither spoke, nor needed to, as they understood each other’s feelings.

"The master is coming!" Yin Shilan gently nudged Li Shiming to remind him after some time had passed.

In fact, Li Shiming had already noticed but wanted to hold Yin Shilan a little longer.

The master Yin Shilan referred to was Li Shiming’s master, Grandmaster Hu.

As Yin Shilan and Li Shiming were a Daoist couple, she also called Grandmaster Hu her master.

Li Shiming understood why Grandmaster Hu came, so he waved his hand to activate the formation, allowing Grandmaster Hu to enter.

Grandmaster Hu entered the cave abode with an anxious heart; after sensing the presence of an unfamiliar Peak Great Cultivator aura here, he was worried that something had happened.

But considering Li Shiming’s strength, there shouldn’t be any trouble.

When he entered the cave abode and saw Yin Shilan, feeling the terrifying aura emanating from her, he was stunned.

He absolutely believed in Li Shiming’s immense talent.

Li Shiming’s rapid cultivation speed made sense to Grandmaster Hu; the number of Great Cultivator Spirit Pills Li Shiming had refined was an astonishing figure to conceive.

However, Grandmaster Hu was familiar with Yin Shilan’s talents. Though perhaps a genius among ordinary cultivators, she was considered only average among Great Cultivators.

With Yin Shilan’s talents, even if Li Shiming provided abundant Great Cultivator Spirit Pills for her cultivation, forty-five years would be insufficient to leap from an entry-level Great Cultivator to a Peak Great Cultivator.

Yet the fact was right before him, forcing Grandmaster Hu to believe it.

"Shilan has advanced to the Peak Great Cultivator?" Despite seeing with his own eyes, Grandmaster Hu asked somewhat incredulously.

"Master, Lan’er truly has become a Peak Great Cultivator!" Li Shiming replied with a smile.

"This is wonderful! The Ten Thousand Beast Sect now has two Peak Great Cultivators!" Grandmaster Hu exclaimed joyfully after confirming.

Although Yin Shilan belonged to the Luanyang Palace, everyone was aware of her relationship with Li Shiming, effectively making her a cultivator of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

"Lan’er’s advancement to the Peak Great Cultivator should remain undisclosed; let things unfold as they may!" Li Shiming considered before speaking.
