Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 2005: Chapter 1049: The Grand Ceremony

Li Shiming’s Thunder Cultivation is not weak; the ’Yuqing Thunder Scripture’ is a technique on par with the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique.’ With his ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ combined with the ’Shenxiao Thunder Pearl,’ these additions allow the power of his Thunder Skill to exceed the limitations of his realm.

But now his Sword Cultivation strength has reached nearly the limit of the Great Power Realm.

The sword strike he demonstrated is replicable, although at a great cost, but all the rules and comprehensions contained within it, and the understanding of Sword Intent, are very real.

Thus, Sword Cultivation is currently his strongest means, and as his cultivation progresses, the power of Sword Cultivation will significantly increase.

His current full-strength sword strike is limited by his physical body; once his cultivation progresses and his body becomes more robust, the power of his full-strength sword strike will naturally increase.

These are not even the fastest-growing aspects of Li Shiming’s power; the most significant changes now are in his Spirit.

Previously, when he unleashed the sword strike that broke through the Ninth Heavenly Thunder, there was some clever manipulation.

He had mobilized a hundred and ninety minds to empower the ’Dustless Sword,’ resulting in the ’Dustless Sword’ having the strength of a hundred and ninety Spiritual entities.

It was this substantial Spirit that enabled him to perform that sword strike, far exceeding his own abilities.

Afterward, his Spirit was greatly enhanced due to executing that sword strike.

He even feels that by now, if he were to cast ’Heavenly Demon Entering the Ear,’ it could heavily injure an Inheritor of Great Ability.

This is a crushing on the spiritual level; his spiritual level far exceeds that of Great Power of the same rank, and with the addition of a hundred and ninety-one minds, he can suppress across realms with Spirit alone.

And the power of Spirit brings more than just an improvement in combat strength.

Powerful Spirit provides immense assistance in comprehending rules, practicing cultivation techniques, and more.

It is believed that in the future, his cultivation level will progress even faster.

Li Shiming is in seclusion but is not ignoring external affairs.

He divided a brain, allowing him to know many matters through Li Yuanba and Li Taibai.

Regarding Yin Shilan, he did not interfere much.

After reaching the Great Power Realm, Yin Shilan needs to progress on her own; there’s not much help he can offer her in the short term at least.

Fortunately, with Yin Shilan having become a Great Power, both he and Yin Shilan now have sufficient life span to cultivate, no longer needing to worry about the shortage of life span.

Li Taibai is currently hosting nine Great Power Avatars; among them, besides those from the Central State Continent, there are also several from other continents.

They have arrived early, and some Great Powers have sent messages expressing their certainty to come.

Perhaps those who haven’t arrived early are struggling with what kind of gift to prepare.

To send congratulations to Yin Shilan, they can’t just consider Yin Shilan; she is Li Shiming’s Daoist couple, and when Great Powers send congratulations, they need to consider Li Shiming’s status as her partner.

Some wealthy superpowers can always find suitable gifts by looking through their core treasury.

But those superpowers that aren’t as affluent will need to think of ways to obtain gifts temporarily.

"Another new friend has arrived!" Li Taibai, seated in the main seat, smiled as he looked outside and said.

The Great Power Avatars present were all somewhat curious.

Each one of them was personally greeted by Li Taibai outside the mountain gate, no exceptions.

This is an attitude that expresses respect for the Great Powers.

Being an outsider and a newly ascended Great Power, Li Taibai naturally needs to assume a humble posture.

Of course, while he assumes a humble posture, the other Great Powers will not truly look down on him.

Behind him stands a Sword Servant, and when the Great Power Avatars saw the Sword Servant, they recognized the Servant’s identity, proficient in the Sword Dao, a ’Flying Night Demon.’

Having discovered this, the Sword Elder Avatar repeatedly observed the Sword Servant, trying to see what could be discerned from the Servant.

But no matter how closely he observed, he couldn’t find any similarity between this Sword Servant and the Yunji Ancestor.

Sword Intent is the calling card of a Sword Cultivator, and the Sword Servant’s Sword Intent is ’Chaos Sword Intent,’ completely different from that of the Yunji Ancestor.

While the Great Power Avatars were curious, a figure appeared in the hall.

"Yuan Ba has arrived!" Li Taibai nodded with a smile.

"Brother Taibai, I was delayed!" Li Yuanba replied with a smile.

Li Yuanba took a seat without ceremony.

Everything appeared quite natural between the two during their interactions, like reuniting old friends.

"I’ll have the Thunder Servant come out and give a hand!" Li Yuanba said as he thought of something.

With a wave of his hand, the Thunder Servant appeared in the hall.

As soon as the Thunder Servant appeared, he stood beside the Sword Servant.

The presence of two ’Flying Night Demons’ once again shocked the Great Power Avatars in the hall, though only the Sword Elder understood that both the Thunder Servant and the Sword Servant were Li Shiming’s Corpse Refining creations.

At this moment, the Great Powers started to speculate about the relationship between Li Yuanba and Li Taibai, their relationship was definitely not simple.

Li Taibai did not need to go out to welcome Li Yuanba, and Li Yuanba’s natural demeanor upon entering the hall all revealed that the two Great Powers were not ordinary friends.

Thinking of this, the Great Powers also thought of the Cultivation World referring to the Li Family’s lineage, and it seems the rumors hold some truth.

Look at the Cultivators of the Li Family’s lineage now—Li Shiming, Li Yuanba, Li Taibai—these are three Great Powers of the Li Family, and furthermore, Yin Shilan, being Li Shiming’s Daoist couple, also counts as a Great Power of the Li lineage.
