Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1645 - 869: Teleportation

"You actually used thunder skills to attack me, hahaha!" Amid booming laughter, Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar stood firm within the lightning storm, showing no signs of harm.

Deep down, he felt a surge of alarm; it was him, no less. Avatars belonging to other Great Powers could genuinely take serious damage from such strikes.

Yet he stood apart; as a Thunder Cultivation Great Power, his command of thunder far outstripped Li Shiming's, like a master teacher to a mere pupil.

True, Li Shiming's thunder skill proficiency fell short of Great Power Luo Yuan's, but his sheer volume surpassed the avatar's. Luo Yuan's avatar simply couldn't fire off forty 'Thunder Cloud Skills' all at once like Li Shiming.

Great Power Luo Yuan's hysterical laughter mocked Li Shiming's pointless attacks while scheming to seize this talented foe and extract every secret. It filled him with delight.

Shock gripped Li Shiming as he realized his blunder in deploying thunder skills against a Thunder Cultivation Great Power.

Combat options dwindled for him; though the 'Heavenly Human Technique' spawned countless attack methods, he'd fixated too much on thunder cultivation power, pouring most efforts into thunder techniques.

His backup, sword cultivation prowess, proved woefully inadequate against avatar Li Yuanba, a dedicated Sword Cultivator who reached Great Cultivator status. Not being a pure Sword Cultivator himself, Li Shiming doubted his sword attacks could endanger Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar, so he skipped that path.

A secret technique surfaced in his thoughts, courtesy of IBMz15 analyzing the predicament and offering a fitting solution.

Li Shiming recognized it as an ice secret technique looted from Great Cultivator Lin of Guiyuan Sect after avatar Li Yuanba defeated him.

Surveying the area, he saw it perfectly suited for unleashing the ice secret technique.

Great Power Luo Yuan let the lightning batter him, savoring Li Shiming's terror. The theft of the 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl' had disrupted his cultivation and rattled his mind— an offense beyond pardon.

Prior to seizing Li Shiming, he aimed to torment him completely.

Once more, Li Shiming summoned forty minds and triggered forty 'Frozen World' secret techniques in unison.

Chaotic spiritual power in his five nascent souls swiftly turned to ice spiritual power, channeling into the 'Frozen World' secret technique runes.

Great Power Luo Yuan detected the chill, followed by white ice mist emerging from emptiness, rapidly forming into ice crystals.

One 'Frozen World' formed an ice crystal seal about the size of a small hill; forty 'Frozen Worlds' trapped Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar at the core of a colossal ice mountain.

Visible through the ice mountain, the avatar's laughing face remained frozen in that instant.

Li Shiming sighed in relief as the 'Frozen World' successfully encased Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar.

He knew full well these forty 'Frozen Worlds' wouldn't contain the avatar for long. This breather was for his escape.

Right as he moved to invoke 'Divine Foot Skill,' myriad tiny lightning bolts flickered across heaven and earth, causing his 'Divine Foot Skill' to dissolve before activation.

Gazing at Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar, he watched it radiate blinding white light.

Terrifying thunder power radiated from Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar, surpassing all Li Shiming's wildest thoughts—mightier even than the fiercest heavenly tribulation he'd witnessed.

Naturally, the mightiest heavenly tribulation he'd observed was merely Nascent Soul Stage level.

Fury consumed Great Power Luo Yuan; a mere junior had made him eat dirt, sealing him in ice.

Even in his triumphant glee, plotting Li Shiming's fate, he'd never foreseen this thunder specialist unleashing ice magic rivaling a top Ice Cultivator's.

Truth be told, Li Shiming's ice magic ranked as average; to Great Power Luo Yuan, it seemed mid-to-high tier for a Great Cultivator.

Li Shiming had never truly practiced ice magic; 'Frozen World' marked his debut attempt.

IBMz15's analysis of 'Frozen World' enabled him to execute the technique flawlessly.

A lone 'Frozen World' could never bind Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar.

But Li Shiming made up for weak potency with overwhelming numbers; forty 'Frozen Worlds' unleashed together kept the avatar pinned in the seal.

Spotting Li Shiming's escape attempt, Great Power Luo Yuan's avatar unleashed its ultimate counter.

He ignited the Thunder Rule Origin inside his avatar, unleashing a fragment of Yuqing Cave Heaven's might.

Li Shiming's spatial control paled against Yuqing Cave Heaven's authority, blocking any 'Divine Foot Skill' execution.

Thunder Rule Origin even pierced Li Shiming's physical body.

He now knew the agony other cultivators endured from thunder skills; paralysis seized his body, stripping all control.

The defensive treasure 'Ruyi Zhenyue Peak' instinctively returned to guard above his head, pouring out defensive energy per his intent to resist the Thunder Rule Origin—yet it proved useless.

'Ruyi Zhenyue Peak's artifact spirit desperately employed every trick to aid its master; this primary offensive treasure doubled as top defense.
