Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1889: Chapter 991: Advancement

Li Shiming stayed in Luanyang Palace for half a year. The speed at which Yin Shilan accepted the half-step great power inheritance from Luanyang Palace could not compare to his. Yin Shilan needed to study a bit and comprehend a bit.

This half-year, Yin Shilan herself was only cultivating the ’Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique’, with a clear goal in mind.

"Lan’er, how do you feel?" Li Shiming asked with a smile.

"I just advanced to Peak Great Cultivator. There’s a lot in the half-step great power inheritance that I don’t quite understand!" Yin Shilan shook her head lightly and said helplessly.

"It’s okay, I’ll explain it to you when we get back. Luanyang Palace also gave me the half-step great power inheritance!" Li Shiming waved his hand and said.

"That’s great, I’ve spent most of my time this half-year memorizing the classics!" Yin Shilan patted her chest lightly, took a deep breath, and said.

She was not in a hurry to advance to the half-step great power. She knew very well that her attainment of the Peak Great Cultivator was achieved with the help of Li Shiming’s treasure, the ’Heavenly Spirit Jade Pearl’.

With her talent, it was unknown how long it would take to reach the Peak Great Cultivator, perhaps she would never achieve it.

And advancing to the half-step great power was many times more difficult than advancing to the Peak Great Cultivator, which she was not currently considering.

So when she was receiving the half-step great power inheritance, she devoted most of her energy to memorizing the half-step great power inheritance, just to be able to help Li Shiming.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, any Jade Scrolls containing the half-step great power inheritance were vast, including text and drawings, with some of the drawings even being animated.

It was only because of her Peak Great Cultivator realm that she could memorize some, but even so, what she remembered was not much.

She had already made up her mind to sort out some parts once they got back, and then visit Luanyang Palace again in the future to receive the half-step great power inheritance multiple times, so she could transcribe the inheritance from Luanyang Palace.

As for the issue of oaths involved, she planned just to casually leave the transcriptions lying around for Li Shiming to find on his own.

Though she would still feel the oath’s influence by doing so, her feelings for Li Shiming made her willing to bear this minor impact.

Unexpectedly, Luanyang Palace was willing to make the half-step great power inheritance open to Li Shiming, relieving Yin Shilan of the heavy burden she felt, and she immediately relaxed.

Li Shiming and Yin Shilan were riding the Flying Boat, traveling towards the Dongqi Continent.

The two discussed the half-step great power inheritance from Luanyang Palace while on the Flying Boat.

Though they called it a discussion, it was mostly Li Shiming explaining and Yin Shilan listening.

On the way back, Li Shiming was worried about being targeted by the great powers of the Central State Continent, and he was ready to fight at any time.

Now, his fear of the great powers had diminished quite a lot.

The more he understood about inheritor great powers, the more he realized their limitations.

As long as he didn’t get too close to the super sect mountain gates, inheritor great powers couldn’t appear in their original form. Their main combat method was through great power avatars.

And the Cave Heaven Energy that great power avatars could bear was very limited. While dealing with other cultivators wasn’t an issue, confronting Li Shiming was another matter.

Currently, Li Shiming’s defense included one hundred and eight ’Eternal Water Bears’, his attack included seventy-two ’Holy Spirits’, and with his own greatly increased strength, he believed he had some confidence in dealing with inheritor great power avatars.

Yet, on the journey, he encountered no trouble and returned to the Dongqi Continent just like that.

In fact, it wasn’t that no great power intended to take advantage of him, but a bigger incident had occurred, drawing the attention of the Central State Continent’s great powers elsewhere.

That was the matter of Li Yuanba attacking the Da Leiyin Temple mountain gate, which held far greater significance than the secrets on Li Shiming.

After returning to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, Li Shiming began dedicating himself to enhancing the strength of the ’Eternal Water Bears’.

When Li Yuanba obtained the ’Eternal Water Bear’, he also received the ancient knowledge recorded in a Jade Carving Ruyi, which contained related research materials on the ’Eternal Water Bear’.

Once Li Shiming discovered the importance of the ’Eternal Water Bear’ to himself, he started contemplating the benefits of enhancing the ’Eternal Water Bear’.

One hundred and eight Late Stage Fourth Grade ’Eternal Water Bears’ could form the Earth Evil Formation Armor, which could defend against half-step great power level Heavenly Tribulation as well as attacks from great power avatars.

If he could elevate the ’Eternal Water Bears’ to the half-step fifth grade, then one hundred and eight half-step fifth-grade ’Eternal Water Bears’ could potentially completely withstand attacks from a great power’s original form?

Even if they couldn’t entirely repel attacks from a great power’s original form, as long as they could hold out long enough for him to respond, it would suffice.

He had plenty of life-saving means, such as Space Movement, and currently, reaching the half-step great power level in space rules allowed him to master Space Movement beyond the effects of the Divine Foot Skill.

As long as he could withstand the space blockade from the great power, with his one hundred and ninety-one brains, he could execute space movements without interruptions, even the great power’s speed couldn’t match his displayed speed.

The reason he had been restricted by great powers previously was due to the space blockade cast by them, preventing him from using the Divine Foot Skill.

Now, with his understanding of space rules, he had confidence in breaking through the space blockade cast by great powers, as long as the ’Eternal Water Bears’ could withstand the great powers’ momentary attack, he would be able to escape from them.
