Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1486 - 789: Return_2

Entering the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven, Li Yuanba arrived at the Treasure Lotus Hall. The cultivation atmosphere in this place let him sense spiritual power gradually strengthening inside him with each inhale.

He wished he could remain here to practice with his primary form, but the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion prevented him from departing.

From his storage, he retrieved numerous containers filled with ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence.’ Though every fragment of ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ was tiny, the entire batch acquired this time fit neatly into the custom boxes he carried.

Next, he produced the Heavenly Compass, the spiritual treasure he had bound to himself, yet it made no real distinction if he or his original self, Li Shiming, held the ownership.

Grasping the Heavenly Compass, Li Shiming vanished in a blur, exiting the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven.

His personal cultivation sanctuary, the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven represented a well-formed grotto heaven he had yet to fully expand, and he sought to avoid any radiation interference.

The confined space of the machine room proved unsuitable, given its demands for artifact forging and pill concoction, failing to satisfy the necessary requirements.

Solely the Half-Life Cave Heaven, with its foundational rules still taking shape and his firm command over it, managed the radiation effects with ease.

In this matter, his total assurance guided him to position the Heavenly Compass within the Half-Life Cave Heaven.

Arriving at the Half-Life Cave Heaven, he modified the surroundings and carved out a secluded area spanning roughly ten meters in diameter.

Through his command of the Half-Life Cave Heaven, he sealed off this zone on its own.

At the heart of the setup, Li Shiming set the Heavenly Compass, then extracted all the acquired ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ and arranged it encircling the device.

Sensing the fierce radiation dispersing across the area, he swiftly departed the confines of that ten-meter sealed zone.

Despite the cave heaven's spatial barrier containing the area, traces of radiation leaked past the shield.

Shaking his head, he resigned to this unavoidable flaw, yet fortunately, the Divine Tree and Breathing Soil present worked to cleanse the radiation, keeping the leakage from becoming a major hassle.

Though separated from that enclosed region, the bond linking him as master to the Heavenly Compass allowed him to perceive its condition remotely.

Inside the Heavenly Compass, the partially processed ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ got removed by him and set apart, as the device persisted in drawing in the radioactive essence from the ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence.’

A speck of superior-grade ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ began emerging at the Heavenly Compass's core.

Detecting this speck of ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ taking shape, a pleased grin crossed Li Shiming's face.

According to the Heavenly Compass's thorough records, this spiritual treasure had been forged specifically to refine radioactive energy.

That mysterious powerhouse, for reasons unknown, managed to steadily cleanse radioactive energy, yielding an upgraded form of ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence.’

Even if the ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ produced this round fell short of military-grade standards, it marked merely the initial refinement.

Provided all the unprocessed ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ underwent purification, and with ongoing refinement cycles, it would ultimately achieve military-grade quality.

Time posed no concern for Li Shiming, since his aim in crafting military-grade ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ involved building a nuclear weapon.

Given the formidable might of himself alongside his clone Li Yuanba, he already ranked as a supreme force in the present Cultivation World, even absent nuclear arms.

Upon breaking through to the Great Cultivator Realm, he would stand as the mightiest among Great Cultivators, with scarce few in the Cultivation World able to endanger him; in an era scarce on supreme powers, a peak Great Cultivator embodied the ultimate in battle prowess.

Nuclear weapons arose from an innate racial instinct; despite crossing into a new realm, the deep-seated urge for overwhelming firepower from his previous life's heritage had only grown fiercer.

He inspected the Half-Life Cave Heaven once more, noting that the purification zone for ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence,’ after operating for some duration, stayed remarkably steady.

In particular, linking his life-bound artifact IBMz15 to the Heavenly Compass’s artifact spirit enabled IBMz15 to oversee the Heavenly Compass’s functions nonstop, set to warn him of any surprises.

The artifact spirit obeyed his directives precisely, understanding its role; from now on, additional processing needed no direct supervision from him, except in emergencies, permitting him to retrieve results only upon military-grade ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ completion.

Control of that compact space in the Half-Life Cave Heaven passed to the ’Heavenly Compass’ artifact spirit, empowering it to handle the ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence.’

When military-grade ’Hell Disgust Crystal Essence’ emerged, the artifact spirit would transfer it straight into the designated anti-radiation jade box.

Li Shiming employed the spiritual treasure ’Traceless Illusion Sword’ to cleanse his form, eliminating lingering radiation traces.

Afterward, he went back to the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven, where Li Yuanba had secured the recent gains in the Treasure Pavilion, while certain jade scrolls found their place in the Book Collection Pavilion.

"Fellow, I’m heading back first. I need to go into seclusion for a while," Li Yuanba said with a smile.

"I’ll be awaiting you in the Great Cultivator Realm!" Li Shiming replied with a smile, tossing some jade vials to Li Yuanba.

A mutual grin passed between them, reflecting their unity as one being with identical assured looks.

Li Shiming passed to Li Yuanba a collection of Great Cultivator Spirit Pills from the White Emperor Sect, designed for the breakthrough to Great Cultivator. He chose to relinquish this set to Li Yuanba, deeming it redundant for his own use.

Arrogance played no part in this choice; rather, the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ he practiced delivered effects mirroring those of the Spirit Pills.

Furthermore, the enduring impacts of the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ surpassed the White Emperor Sect’s Great Cultivator Spirit Pills by far during the ascent to Great Cultivator.

Li Yuanba pocketed the jade bottles and departed the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven.

Li Shiming felt a pang of regret that Li Yuanba's aptitudes barred him from practicing the ’Heavenly Human Technique.’

Were it not for his bold experiments back in the Qi Refinement Realm, implanting a ’Five Elements Qi Absorption Array’ in his body that led to five Golden Cores and five Nascent Souls, he himself might have been denied the ’Heavenly Human Technique.’

Thankfully, the understandings from the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ offered Li Yuanba some shared advantages through their connection.

Li Shiming went back to the Treasure Lotus Hall, settled into a cross-legged position on the Infinite Jade Mat, and started refining the ’Heavenly Human Technique’ after swallowing a Spirit Pill.

As his five Nascent Souls jointly advanced the ’Heavenly Human Technique,’ he felt his cultivation base inching upward steadily.

Cultivation demands endless patience; while treasures once hastened progress, pushing into the Nascent Soul Middle Stage—particularly its advanced phases—relied solely on personal effort.

The Cultivation World's conditions barred the birth of divine items suited for rapid cultivation boosts beyond the later Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

After entering the Great Cultivator Realm, even Great Cultivator Spirit Medicine grew rarer, as the cosmos restricted the count of elite cultivators.

With Li Shiming immersed in closed-door cultivation once again, Li Yuanba made his way to the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion and secluded himself in the cave mansion of the Sword Cave Heaven for a partial retreat.

Great Venerable Hongfa required little additional oversight at this point.

Beyond serving Li Yuanba, Great Venerable Hongfa occupied a key role in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion nowadays.

Aside from Li Yuanba, Great Venerable Hongfa alone could sustain the ’Space Acceptance Array’ in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, a duty that elevated his status highly in the pavilion's eyes.

Though Great Venerable Hongfa possessed his own dwelling in the Sword Cave Heaven, save for Li Yuanba's calls, he chose to reside in a different cave mansion atop Sword Peak.

Chiefly, the Sword Cave Heaven's atmosphere favored Sword Cultivators, and lacking metal element affinity, he found it less ideal for his practice.
