Chapter 1882: Chapter 987: Consecutive Tribulations (Part 2)
There must be some secret involved here; the intelligence personnel among these cultivators want to approach and investigate, but Luanyang Palace is well-prepared, with Great Cultivators positioned in several directions, warning any cultivator who tries to get a little closer.
Li Shiming bathed entirely in the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, smiling, and still having enough energy to study the heavenly thunder; all the data sensed from the heavenly thunder was recorded by the IBMz15 into the database.
After nine heavenly thunders passed, the familiar Heaven and Earth Reward Energy emerged from his body.
His body, soul, and Spiritual Power Pattern began to be strengthened; this was the third enhancement, each time the Heaven and Earth Reward Energy obtained was roughly the same, but the effect became weaker with each time.
The first time had the best effect, the second time had reduced to half the effect, and this third time only had half of half the effect.
"It seems I oversimplified things; how could there be a bug in the Heaven and Earth Rules!" Li Shiming shook his head, smiling bitterly.
Although over at the avatar Li Yuanba’s side, it is impossible to further elevate other rules to the half-step Great Power Level in a short time, Li Shiming previously had some ideas, hoping to rely on the bug he discovered to strengthen himself multiple times.
But evidently, the Heaven and Earth Reward of the same rank weakens in effect for a cultivator each time.
If he truly wants to obtain the fourth Heaven and Earth Reward Energy, its boosting effect would be even more inconspicuous; waiting for such a long time for such a minor enhancement is not worthwhile.
Li Shiming released his perception, this time expanding his perception range to 200,000 meters.
With such a range of perception, should he engage in a fight with other Great Cultivators, those Great Cultivators might not even have noticed him before his attack is already upon them.
Furthermore, his Nascent Soul situation is not good; the Nascent Soul is already saturated, and he worries whether the next heavenly tribulation, with his soul and ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ enhancement, might cause the Nascent Soul to explode.
He shook his head, deciding not to think too much about it; he knew at least in the short time, it’s impossible for the avatar Li Yuanba to master new half-step Great Power Level rules.
And having had this much time, he should have already discovered the method to advance to the half-step Great Power.
Although Li Shiming has stopped the heavenly tribulation, the Phoenix Palace Master still did not dare to relax; she instructed all the Great Cultivators maintaining order to remain alert, wanting to see if Li Shiming would face another heavenly tribulation.
Fortunately, her prediction did not come true; Li Shiming’s figure flickered and appeared by her side.
The Phoenix Palace Master glanced at Li Shiming, not knowing how best to ask; she felt that asking any question seemed to be probing Li Shiming’s secrets.
Therefore, she said nothing, only making a gesture to invite Li Shiming to return with her.
Li Shiming also did not express gratitude again, he smiled and nodded, following the Phoenix Palace Master back to Luanyang Palace.
Back in the room at Fengqi Palace, he perceived the changes within his body.
Ironically, what was originally his strongest Thunder Skill is now, even with the addition of the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl,’ only average.
His strongest now is considered to be his lifebound flying sword, enhanced by the half-step Great Power Gold Rules and half-step Great Power Sword Intent Rules, with the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ wielded imposing enough to reach the half-step Great Power peak.
Moreover, even without using magical treasures, relying solely on his body can also unleash extremely powerful half-step Great Power-level attacks.
If not for the Nascent Soul’s limitations, his ’Heavenly Human Technique’ could fully exhibit half-step Great Power peak might, currently only able to demonstrate nearly half-step Great Power peak power.
The power surge provided him with more sense of security.
Li Shiming sensed that the Phoenix Palace Master had arrived at Fengqi Palace, unsure why she came at this time.
Normally, after passing a heavenly tribulation, cultivators take time to rest; typically, they should not be disturbed.
Even though he is Luanyang Palace’s guest, he should not be disturbed at this moment.
He executed a space movement, and this time it’s not ’Distance as Far as the Horizon’ or other Secret Techniques of the Divine Foot Skill, but purely the application of spatial energy, utilizing spatial energy for space movement.
This is his new insight into space movement after acquiring complete half-step Great Power spatial rules.
Of course, he will not completely abandon the Divine Foot Skill; the Divine Foot Skill is a simpler way of applying spatial energy, consuming less and being more convenient to perform.
"Mr. Li, I sincerely apologize for disturbing you now, our ancestor wishes to meet you," the Phoenix Palace Master also knew that this interruption was inappropriate, bowing as she spoke.
Li Shiming was slightly surprised; he had heard much of this Luanyang Palace’s Great Power.
Unexpectedly, this Great Power wished to meet him; truthfully, he did not want to meet any Great Power.
In the Cultivation World, only a Great Power could threaten his safety; other cultivators he utterly disregards.
Yet being in Luanyang Palace, since this Great Power invited him, he must show respect.
"It’s my honor!" Li Shiming smiled in response.
"Don’t consider me presumptuous!" At that moment, a figure appeared in the grand hall of Fengqi Palace, and a crisp voice followed.
Li Shiming saw the Great Power of Luanyang Palace, a noble female cultivator dressed in palace attire, yet this was not the main body but an avatar of Great Power.
The Great Power avatar was exceedingly solid, but for Li Shiming’s dramatic increase in strength, he might not have discerned its difference from the main body.
"Li Shizhen from Ten Thousand Beast Sect greets the senior!" Li Shiming respectfully saluted.
"No need for formalities; my name is Meng Jun; your Daoist partner is a disciple of Luanyang Palace; you may address me as Uncle Meng," Great Power Meng Jun unexpectedly replied politely.
She proposed allowing Li Shiming to call her Uncle Meng, an exceedingly rare acknowledgment.
In the Cultivation World, Great Power is a most distinctive realm, usually addressed as senior, with their sect’s cultivators calling them ancestor.
It’s sometimes amusing to consider that on the Beishu Continent, a Nascent Soul Early Stage Practitioner dares call themselves ancestor.
Whereas in the super powers of the Central State Continent, only Great Power could be called ancestor.
However, Great Power Meng Jun did not ask Li Shiming to call her ancestor but Uncle, reflecting her recognition of Li Shiming’s strength.
"Uncle Meng, may I know why you’ve come to seek me?" Li Shiming was straightforward, immediately changing his address.
"I came to meet you, having heard of your tri-fold half-step Great Power Heavenly Tribulations, thus developed interest," Great Power Meng Jun smiled, watching Li Shiming and spoke.
"Uncle Meng, I must’ve made you laugh; I also know that I took a mistaken cultivation path!" Li Shiming responded with a wry smile.
He understood that the three-fold half-step Great Power Heavenly Tribulation caused an accident in his cultivation, this accident of which its good or ill outcome remains unknown.
Yet he inherently possesses five Nascent Souls, confronting challenges far more severe than these three-fold half-step Great Power Heavenly Tribulations.
The three-fold half-step Great Power Heavenly Tribulations merely fortified his body, soul, and Spiritual Power Pattern, but his Nascent Soul remains at the Great Cultivator Realm, and he still hopes to construct a Grotto Heaven through the Nascent Soul.
If he only had one Nascent Soul, he could completely proceed to construct a Grotto Heaven at once, from cultivation technique to theory, from cultivation resources to Heavenly Mechanism Treasure, all prepared thoroughly.
Yet the issue is he possesses five Nascent Souls, any mistake would land him in grave trouble.
"Actually, your path is not truly misguided; it does not impact your advancement to half-step Great Power nor constructing your Grotto Heaven, just what unexpected events might occur during the Grotto Heaven construction is hard to predict; your situation has no precedent in the Cultivation World, everything requires your personal attempt!" Great Power Meng Jun possessed the judgment of a Great Power, sharing her thoughts.
This is also her main reason for the visit: a genius deeply tied with Luanyang Palace, one who in the Great Cultivator Realm stands among half-step Great Power might and is approaching Great Power-level attack potency, warranting sincere engagement.
Upon perceiving Li Shiming’s circumstances, she offered her insight, a gesture of goodwill and investment.
If Li Shiming surpasses this hurdle, then he will face a bright future, and Luanyang Palace will have a powerful ally, an entirely beneficial prospect!
