Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 1791 - 942: Soaring into the Sky

The remains of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing were secured within the engine room's confines. Li Shiming extracted some blood, imbued with a peculiar energy, and combined it with other high-tier 4th-grade corpse refining components.

This particular blood was absolutely vital, having been drawn directly from the body of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing.

Post-extraction, the blood could not be utilized as-is; it required modification. Based on IBMz15's comprehensive analysis of numerous blood samples used in corpse refining, an estimation of the 'Flying Night Demon' blood's composition was made.

Li Shiming dedicated decades within the engine room space, meticulously altering this blood with a precision reaching 0.05 nanometers, striving for a composition indistinguishable from the 'Flying Night Demon' blood.

During the intricate process of corpse refinement, a specific type of blood must serve as a medium to successfully refine a corpse of a certain caliber.

Lacking the actual blood of a 'Flying Night Demon', his only recourse was to research and engineer a substitute himself.

Naturally, even if a 'Flying Night Demon' were to materialize before him, his current strength would be insufficient to procure its blood.

He harbored the suspicion that even facing a 'Flying Night Demon' directly, he might not even be capable of scratching its formidable defenses.

The blood he synthesized, believed to mimic 'Flying Night Demon' blood, formed a unique talismanic ink when blended with various premium 4th-grade corpse refining materials.

To finalize the mixture, he infused his own essence blood and a measure of spirit Qi into the talismanic ink.

This technique, devised by IBMz15, was intended to bolster the recognition between the corpse and its master. By incorporating spirit Qi, it was akin to embedding the owner's spiritual essence into the nascent formation of the corpse's soul, thereby facilitating easier control and mitigating the potential for violent backlash.

However, this specific research held little practical value for the general cultivator, as few would willingly expend their spirit Qi, an intrinsic part of their soul, on the endeavor of refining a corpse.

Under typical circumstances, the failure rate in refining corpses, particularly those of advanced tiers, is exceedingly high. Should each attempt to refine a corpse necessitate the depletion of spirit Qi, a cultivator would likely succumb to madness from soul depletion long before completing the refinement.

Li Shiming, however, stood apart. Possessing 191 distinct brains, each endowed with its own reserve of spirit Qi, he felt no apprehension about depleting his spiritual energy to the detriment of his soul.

He commenced the inscription of runes onto the body of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing. Given his current cultivation realm, coupled with the simultaneous processing power of over a hundred brains, this undertaking presented no significant challenge.

While he meticulously drew the runes, the pre-established Corpse Refining Array concurrently intensified its absorption of Yin Cold Energy. As this instance was not focused on refining a Golden Corpse, the greater the accumulation of Yin Cold Energy, the more advantageous it would be.

The physical vessel of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing possessed exceptional quality, capable of accommodating a substantially larger number of 'Refining Corpse Runes'.

Previously, when utilizing the corpse of a Peak Great Cultivator, the inscription process halted at 400 million 'Refining Corpse Runes' before the body reached its saturation point.

In stark contrast, the body of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing could accommodate an astonishing 2.5 billion 'Refining Corpse Runes' before reaching its limit.

A dense network of 2.5 billion 'Refining Corpse Runes' permeated the entirety of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing's form, both internally and externally, with each rune meticulously maintaining an equilibrium of energy.

This flawless balance was a direct result of IBMz15's precise calculations; any deviation in energy balance would have significantly escalated the probability of failure during the corpse refining sequence.

He carefully positioned the remains of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing within the Corpse Refining Array, which had been actively absorbing energy for ninety-nine days, by which point it had nearly condensed a substantial amount of Yin Cold Spirit Mist internally.

Merely ten breaths after the corpse of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing was placed within the Corpse Refining Array, the inherent Yin Cold Energy seemed to discover an immediate pathway, flowing rapidly into the body.

A cascade of top-grade 4th-grade corpse refining materials within the array channeled various corpse refining energies directly into the physique of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing.

Li Shiming observed the unfolding corpse refining process from his vantage point just outside the array, maintaining a silent vigil.

It was imperative for him to meticulously document every subtle alteration occurring throughout this refinement session, thereby accumulating valuable reference data for future enhancements.

He held no illusions of achieving success on his inaugural attempt, recognizing that this endeavor involved refining a 'Flying Night Demon'—an endeavor entirely unprecedented within the annals of the Cultivation World.

Upon the body of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing, legions of 'Refining Corpse Runes' ignited with power, transforming the corpse into a resplendent, glowing entity.

Activating his 'Divine Eyes', he simultaneously directed the Corpse Refining Array to intently monitor the evolutionary progression of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing's physical form.

The physical being of the half-step Great Power Yang Xing was undergoing transmutation into a refined corpse. This development did not deviate from his projections; the entire process remained firmly within the sphere of his control.
