Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 1640 - 866: Inventory (2)
Being able to become a Peak Great Cultivator doesn’t just come from having exceptional cultivation talent; one must also receive the attention of great powers to get enough resources to reach the Peak Great Cultivator Realm.
Ordinary Great Cultivators, no matter how talented, cannot ascend to the Peak Great Cultivator Realm without sufficient resource support.
The Peak Great Cultivator Realm is not like the previous realms; the resources for Great Cultivators are almost entirely controlled by the major powers, and individuals cannot acquire enough Great Cultivator resources without support from these powers.
Given the rarity and preciousness of Great Cultivator resources, it’s already fortunate for ordinary Great Cultivators to maintain their realm’s resources, let alone advance further without the support of a faction.
Li Yuanba didn’t know the relationship between Great Cultivator Lin and the powerful figure in Guiyuan Sect, but the ability of Guiyuan Sect’s mighty figure to seek out Sword Elder for this matter must indicate an extraordinarily complex relationship.
Li Yuanba took out a jade box and handed it to the Sword Elder’s incarnation.
"This is Fellow Daoist Lin’s Nascent Soul, please decide, Sword Elder!"
The Sword Elder’s incarnation accepted the jade box and opened it to glance at Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul.
He extended his hand, and a ring appeared in it, precisely the soul crystal ring.
"There’s no need to return the soul crystal ring, leave him with his life-bound treasure instead!" the Sword Elder’s incarnation said calmly.
Li Yuanba couldn’t help but marvel at the means of the Sword Elder’s incarnation. To obtain this soul crystal ring, one would have to either slay Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul or allow the soul crystal ring to remain in the Nascent Soul in its energy-converted form.
The reason the soul crystal ring is the preferred storage choice for many powerful cultivators is not only due to its immense internal space but also because it cannot be easily plundered.
Unless a cultivator falls on the spot, the soul crystal ring will always exist with the Nascent Soul.
Wherever the Nascent Soul is, the soul crystal ring is too. When danger arrives, the Nascent Soul can escape with the soul crystal ring without slowing down.
"Guiyuan Sect didn’t wish to retrieve Lin Yuan’s Nascent Soul empty-handed; this is the ’Guiyuan Veil,’ keep it!" the Sword Elder’s incarnation took out a gauzy object and tossed it to Li Yuanba.
Then the Sword Elder’s incarnation made a gesture, and an energy-converted flying sword appeared in front of him.
He placed the jade box containing Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul on the energy-converted flying sword and lightly pointed at it.
The energy-converted flying sword shot outwards and instantly disappeared.
Li Yuanba recognized this as the method of ’Flying Sword Transmission,’ but because there are now many alternatives, few Sword Cultivators actually use this ’Flying Sword Transmission’ method.
The ’Flying Sword Transmission’ employed by the Sword Elder’s incarnation was not ordinary ’Flying Sword Transmission.’
Just as the energy-converted flying sword flew out, Li Yuanba sensed a spatial fluctuation; ’Flying Sword Transmission’ should involve spatial rules, but Li Yuanba couldn’t understand the principles or effects.
"Guiyuan Sect is in your debt this time; you refrained from slaying the Nascent Soul, so that old guy won’t do anything to you. As for Guiyuan Sect’s other cultivators, I don’t think you care about their opinions, and they can’t threaten you anyway!" the Sword Elder’s incarnation said with a smile.
From the ’Chaos Sword Intent’ on Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul, the Sword Elder’s incarnation could perceive how strong Li Yuanba’s comprehension of Sword Intent had become.
From this, Li Yuanba’s battle prowess could be assessed. With such a powerful ’Chaos Sword Intent’ and the assistance of Divine Foot Skill, he could fully contend with any Great Cultivator.
Jian Wuwei stood silently at the side, saying nothing in the presence of the Sword Elder.
In the end, the Sword Elder’s incarnation asked Li Yuanba to leave first, leaving Jian Wuwei behind.
Li Yuanba returned to his cave dwelling and took out the ’Guiyuan Veil.’
His Divine Sense scanned the ’Guiyuan Veil’ and discovered that it was a special magical treasure that didn’t require Master Recognition Technique to be used.
He activated the ’Guiyuan Veil,’ which hovered above his head and unfolded into a circular, transparent veil. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Upon activation of the ’Guiyuan Veil,’ he immediately discovered its purpose.
Within the ’Guiyuan Veil,’ he sensed changes in the Spiritual Energy; the Spiritual Energy passing through the veil became extremely pure and could be absorbed by the body more quickly.
Most critically, the total amount of Spiritual Energy the ’Guiyuan Veil’ could absorb was enormous, a treasure specifically for Peak Great Cultivators to enhance their cultivation efficiency.
Li Yuanba had previously lamented the loss of Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul, knowing that a Peak Great Cultivator’s Nascent Soul had many uses.
The most significant use was for the Heavenly Ghost to absorb, though not for the current Heavenly Ghost.
The current Heavenly Ghost had an excessive amount of spiritual energy, so he considered it stockpiling it; when the Heavenly Ghost needed to advance to a higher level, it would require a substantial amount of spiritual energy.
The Nascent Soul of a Great Cultivator was the best source of spiritual energy, which was why he captured Great Cultivator Lin’s Nascent Soul.
But it’s just as well; he didn’t expect that there was a mighty figure behind Great Cultivator Lin, and exchanging Lin’s Nascent Soul for the ’Guiyuan Veil’ was still a profit for him.
You should know that it is exceedingly rare for him or his main body, Li Shiming, to increase their cultivation speed by even a little.
Especially for Li Shiming, who, having used many cultivation treasures, had pushed his cultivation speed to an extreme, there were very few treasures that could further enhance his cultivation speed.
By his estimation, the ’Guiyuan Veil’ would be somewhat beneficial to Li Shiming.
Li Yuanba took out Great Cultivator Lin’s soul crystal ring, its Master Recognition mark cleared by the Sword Elder’s incarnation, reducing his troubles.
He cast a Master Recognition Technique, claiming the soul crystal ring.
His Divine Sense entered the soul crystal ring, where he sensed the Spiritual Objects within.
The first thing he saw was a one-person flying boat, from its aura he could judge it to be a Fourth Grade Top Quality flying boat.
He was quite satisfied upon seeing this Fourth-grade top flying boat.
This Fourth-grade top flying boat had passed Minglu’s approval, personally handed to him by the Sword Elder, so even if Guiyuan Sect’s powerful figures had any thoughts about it, they couldn’t cause trouble for him over this matter.
Just as the Sword Elder said, besides Guiyuan Sect’s powerful figures, Li Yuanba didn’t need to care about the other cultivators of Guiyuan Sect.
With the battle strength he displayed, alongside the Sword Elder as a powerful backer, no force in the Central State Continent would dare provoke him.
’Guiyuan Extreme Spirit Boat,’ this is the information he gained after expelling the Master Recognition mark within the Fourth-grade top flying boat and re-claiming it for himself.
Without any hesitation, he placed the ’Guiyuan Extreme Spirit Boat’ into his own soul crystal ring; from then on, it would be his flying boat for travels.
Of course, he would also learn from Great Cultivator Jian Tianyi and make some modifications to the ’Guiyuan Extreme Spirit Boat’ to preserve some face for Guiyuan Sect.
Inside the soul crystal ring, Li Yuanba’s Divine Sense swept over several bottles of high-level spirit pills for Great Cultivators, made by his main body, Li Shiming.
There were also Great Cultivator Spirit Medicines, some Fourth-grade materials, Fourth Grade Top Quality tea sets, spare Fourth Grade Top Quality robes, and so on.
These Spiritual Objects, enough to drive the majority of cultivators in the Cultivation World mad, barely stirred much temptation in Li Yuanba.
Until his Divine Sense passed over a jade box, he opened the jade box, and his Divine Sense was almost frozen by the icy aura emanating from it, prompting him to quickly close it.
A look of delight appeared on his face; it was actually the ’Profound Ice Saint Spirit,’ a material exceeding Fourth Grade quality and almost reaching the fifth-grade, used in Artifact Refining.
With the ’Profound Ice Saint Spirit’ in hand, a Great Cultivator skilled in ice techniques could refine it into a treasure surpassing Fourth Grade quality, with a high chance of triggering an Artifact Tribulation.
But those effects could be brought out in the hands of other Great Cultivators; in Li Yuanba’s hands, or rather, in his main body Li Shiming’s hands, the ’Profound Ice Saint Spirit’ could wield unimaginable power.
