Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 338 - 215: Divine Thought_2
Chapter 338: Chapter 215: Divine Thought_2
The Red Sun Spirit Fire is extremely convenient, especially within the engine room space; it doesn’t require spirit carbon, only a replenishment of fire attribute spiritual power after refining is complete.
With his current reserves of spiritual power, he could easily sustain the consumption of the Red Sun Spirit Fire and it wouldn’t affect him much at all.
Li Shiming stepped out of his cave abode, and with his divine thought released, the world appeared different to his eyes than it ever had before.
He could perceive the spiritual energy in the void, noticing that the floating dust was mingled with pollen and a variety of other substances.
He tried to control his flying sword with divine thought; the Central Palace Sword, under the control of divine thought, maneuvered nimbly as if driven by a new engine, and its speed was also faster.
Becoming familiar with his divine thought, he had already arrived at Dan Ding Peak.
...
He had access privileges to enter and exit Dan Ding Peak, and could directly enter Dan Ding Hall without notification.

This was a treatment not extended to other disciples of Master Ma, as they didn’t possess spiritual fire. Master Ma was cultivating Li Shiming as his successor.
Master Ma would traditionally take a registered disciple when his end was near and then pass on his own spiritual fire to that disciple, signifying the true inheritance.
However, the emergence of Li Shiming with his own spiritual fire offered Master Ma multiple options, allowing him to cultivate one more Alchemy Master for the sect.
“Shiming, you’ve cultivated your divine thought!” As soon as Li Shiming entered Dan Ding Hall, the voice of Master Ma reached him.
Li Shiming had just cultivated his divine thought, which he hadn’t concealed at all, radiating from within, detectable by any Golden Core cultivator from a great distance.
“Master, I can learn the ‘Divine Separation and Thought Transformation Technique’ now!” Li Shiming said excitedly.
“Rein in your divine thought a bit. If you encounter a Golden Core Elder, they might think you’re trying to probe them, and I won’t save you then!” Master Ma warned with a wave of his hand.
Li Shiming also realized he was too excited. Divine thought and spiritual thought were actually quite similar; he couldn’t dare to leave his spiritual thought exposed carelessly—it could indeed lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.
And divine thought was picking up so much more than spiritual thought, even more likely to be misconstrued by cultivators.
“This is the ‘Divine Separation and Thought Transformation Technique,’ some of my insights into refining elixirs with multiple furnaces simultaneously. These are nine spirit artifact furnaces. All these items have been deducted from your mission rewards!” Master Ma said with a smile as he took out the already prepared items and tossed them in a storage bag to Li Shiming.
In this past year, with daily pill refining, Li Shiming had accrued an extremely large number of contribution points.
The reason why the sect’s alchemy tasks required eight portions was precisely for the compensation in contribution points, which varied with the different elixir pills.
Given his pace of refining five furnaces a day, plus the high quality of his elixir pills, he was earning more contribution points daily than a normal Foundation Establishment Cultivator would in a month.
No wonder Master Ma said alchemists are wealthy; it is exceedingly easy for high-skilled alchemists to acquire wealth.
Over the past year, Li Shiming hadn’t even considered using technology from his previous life to make a profit in the Cultivation World; being an alchemist was enough to completely satisfy his cultivation needs.
Thus, when Master Ma mentioned that contribution points had been used to pay for the cultivation technique and spiritual objects, Li Shiming didn’t mind at all.
Besides, Master Ma’s experience and insights into alchemy were priceless, a precious heritage coveted by countless alchemists.
Li Shiming took out the ‘Divine Separation and Thought Transformation Technique’ and scanned its contents with his divine thought.
He had the experience of cultivating the ‘Hundred Thoughts Thousand Reversions,’ and the ‘Divine Separation and Thought Transformation Technique’ was an advanced version of it, specific to the divine thought splitting method.
Within thirty minutes, he had successfully mastered the ‘Divine Separation and Thought Transformation Technique.’
Of course, this was thanks to his daily practice of multitasking and dividing his consciousness between his main body and his avatar; furthermore, the Nine Palace Sword Formation he used honed his ‘Hundred Thoughts Thousand Reversions.’
He did not dare to split off too many Divine Thoughts, opting to only create ten, following Master Ma’s method.
This was just one more Divine Thought than what he needed to manage the Nine Palace Sword Formation, so the difficulty wasn’t too significant.
However, the splitting of Divine Thoughts this time was entirely different from controlling the Nine Palace Sword Formation, where the Central Palace Sword managed the other eight flying swords most of the time.
This time, ten independently thinking and analyzing Divine Thoughts were truly split off, meaning that if his spiritual power allowed, he could simultaneously control ten independent flying swords to combat his enemies.
Master Ma watched Li Shiming with a smile, feeling extremely satisfied with this Registered Disciple, with the only dissatisfaction being that Li Shiming was merely his Registered Disciple.
Li Shiming then consulted the insights from Master Ma on refining elixirs simultaneously in multiple furnaces. He had already simulated this process numerous times in the IBMz15 and was confident that after splitting his divine thoughts, he could simultaneously refine elixirs in ten furnaces.
The powerful computational abilities of the IBMz15 ensured timely data analysis for ten furnaces of elixirs, providing the strongest support for him.
Moreover, the year spent refining was not in vain, as his handling of Second Grade Spirit Medicine had become extremely proficient, not limited to only the ‘Shushan Hunyuan Pill’.
He had also refined a variety of early-stage Foundation Establishment elixirs for the Sect, mastering nearly all Sect’s Pill Recipes that an Intermediate Alchemist could refine, and also ensuring that the quality of all refined elixirs reached a high level.
“Master, I will go back and study this thoroughly, and I anticipate taking on more Sect alchemy tasks in the future!” Li Shiming said, bowing deeply.
“How is your cultivation of Spiritual Fire progressing?” Master Ma inquired, looking up.
Since Li Shiming had cultivated the Secret Technique for concealing one’s Spiritual Fire that he had provided, he could no longer sense the state of the Red Sun Spirit Fire within Li Shiming.
“Master, I have been using the Red Sun Spirit Fire to refine elixirs recently, and the Red Sun Spirit Fire has reached Second Grade Middle Stage!” Li Shiming answered truthfully.
Master Ma shook his head, finding it too effortless to mentor such a disciple, with not much sense of achievement.
Within a year, Li Shiming had almost reached the limit of an Intermediate Alchemist, and due to refining five furnaces of elixirs each day, his accumulated experience was almost indistinguishable from those alchemists who had been learning for decades.
This was related to the strength of Li Shiming’s spirit. A typical alchemist’s spirit would be exhausted after refining a single batch of elixirs, let alone refining five batches in a day.
Especially since he was refining early-stage Foundation Establishment elixirs, which were essentially the highest grade elixirs that an Intermediate Alchemist could refine.
Now that Li Shiming’s Red Sun Spirit Fire had reached Second Grade Middle Stage, he had met the basic conditions to be promoted to a High-level Alchemist.
“After you entered my tutelage, I actually haven’t taught you much. Today, I will officially impart to you the ‘Shushan Pill Scripture.’ I hope you quickly advance to become a High-level Alchemist, come with me!” Master Ma decided after some thought, and spoke earnestly.
He led Li Shiming to another location on Dan Ding Peak, where the legacy plaques of the past Alchemy Masters of the Shushan Sect were enshrined.
Accepting the ‘Shushan Pill Scripture’ inheritance was essentially taking on the Alchemy Master legacy.
This was the most fundamental Alchemy Dao inheritance of the Shushan Sect, and only alchemists with a Spiritual Fire and the potential to become an Alchemy Master were eligible for this Alchemy Dao inheritance.
Li Shiming respectfully kowtowed to the past Alchemy Masters and made a vow with his soul, finally receiving the ‘Shushan Pill Scripture’ inheritance.
Master Ma felt somewhat gratified as he was in such a hurry to pass on the ‘Shushan Pill Scripture’ not just because Li Shiming had met the conditions, but also for another important reason: Li Shiming’s high-intensity alchemy efforts were just what the Sect needed.
Currently, thanks to Li Shiming’s efforts, there was already a substantial reserve of early-stage Foundation Establishment elixirs, but there was a huge scarcity of Middle Late Stage Foundation Establishment elixirs.
If Li Shiming could quickly become a High-level Alchemist, and at the same time ensure that the quality of his refining did not decrease, it would significantly alleviate the Sect’s shortage of Middle Late Stage Foundation Establishment elixirs.
As Li Shiming left the hall, he held a golden Jade Scroll in his hand.
