Qixing Island, Li Shiming can be 100% sure that he has never heard of this island from any information or from the mouths of monks.
He looked at Yin Shilan, and seeing the suspicion in Yin Shilan's eyes, he knew that Yin Shilan might know something about this island.
"Lan'er, where is the Seven Star Island?" he asked softly.
Yin Shilan glanced at Uncle Zhuge with a questioning look in his eyes.
"It's okay. We're going to take him there anyway, so there's no need to keep it a secret from him!" Uncle Zhuge said with a smile.
"The Seven Star Island is the first line of defense jointly arranged by the seven major sects in the sea to prevent sea beasts with golden elixir strength from approaching the seven major sects!" Yin Shilan explained to Li Shiming.
Li Shiming did not expect that the seven major sects were actually in an alliance with each other.
You know, as far as he knew, Tianhai Sect and Xuanming Sect were mortal enemies, and the relationship between Tianhai Sect and Shengbing Sect was also not very good. With his status, he had never come into contact with the other sects.
But the seven major sects that seem to have nothing to do with each other formed a defense line on the Seven Star Island. Is it just for the sea beasts with Jindan strength?
Of course, these are still too far away from him. As a mere Qi Refining cultivator, if he did not have good formation skills, he might not be able to get in touch with these things at all.
The flying boat slowed down, and Li Shiming saw the Seven Star Island, which was composed of seven small islands connected together.
Looking from the sky, seven connected islands form the Big Dipper formation, but it is not known whether this formation is natural or intentionally created.
He also knew the mission he had come here for. There were seven connected islands, and five deep sword marks were left on them by some powerful being.
The five sword marks that can be clearly seen from the sky would be extremely shocking if they were on the ground.
As the flying boat flew downwards, Li Shiming's whole body tensed up as he felt seven terrifying auras sweeping across the flying boat.
"Jindan, seven Jindan elders!" He almost jumped up in shock.
It is difficult to meet a Jindan elder on ordinary days, but I didn’t expect that there are seven Jindan elders here.
The flying boat landed on one of the islands, and Master Zhuge put away the flying boat.
"Zhuge Xuan pays his respects to Elder Gu!" He said as he bowed towards a cave.
"You came quite quickly. Go and repair the formation first!" an old voice sounded.
"Yes!" Zhuge Xuan bowed and replied. He turned to Li Shiming and Yin Shilan and said, "Your mission is to repair the formation on this island. If there is anything that cannot be solved, leave it there and wait for me to deal with it!"
Li Shiming looked around and connected it with the scene he saw from the sky. There were two sword marks on the island. The damage was very serious and it might not be able to be repaired in a short time.
"Here are the materials we need. Don't worry about the consumption of the materials. Just repair this place as soon as possible!" Zhuge Xuan took out two storage bags and handed them to the two men.
Li Shiming took over a storage bag, probed it with his spiritual power and found that it was 20 cubic meters in size and was filled with various precious formation materials.
The formation materials in this storage bag alone are worth at least one million spirit stones.
He was considered wealthy, with a net worth of over two million spirit stones, but it was the first time he had seen so many precious formation materials together.
Together with the storage bag in Yin Shilan's hand, that's two million spirit stones, not to mention that the formation materials needed by Zhuge Xuan are even more precious, and their value is probably far beyond the formation materials in the storage bags of the two.
This is just the repair of one island. The seven small islands have all suffered varying degrees of damage. Just repairing the formation of the Seven Star Island is an astronomical figure for a normal cultivator.
Li Shiming and Yin Shilan were used to working together. They acted together, while Zhuge Xuan acted alone.
Li Shiming and Yin Shilan came to the sword mark. The sword mark was three meters deep and more than five meters wide. The length could not be estimated because the sword mark went directly through the island.
Li Shiming used his spiritual sense to sense it and found that the energy in the sword mark should have been cleared, otherwise the remaining energy in the sword mark alone would be an extremely troublesome thing.
With the help of spiritual thoughts, he began the repair work.
The layout here is based on the Big Dipper formation, supplemented by a variety of formations blended together to form a formation with extremely strong defensive effects.
Since he was at one of the nodes and the Big Dipper formation was destroyed, he could only make a preliminary judgment and the actual power of the formation was unknown.
However, for him, no matter how complicated the formation is, it is composed of smaller nodes, and what he has to do is to repair these smaller nodes.
The formation materials in the storage bag were taken out, and Yin Shilan made the corresponding formation objects according to Li Shiming's instructions.
Li Shiming's understanding of formations is deeper than Yin Shilan's. In countless missions, the cooperation between the two has formed a master-servant pattern.
Yin Shilan's spiritual power is deeper, and she can help Li Shiming make the array objects needed for repairs more quickly. Li Shiming is responsible for drawing the missing and damaged array lines and supplementing the array nodes.
The two people's restoration work progressed steadily and did not encounter the troubles that Zhuge Xuan mentioned.
Perhaps this formation is extremely complicated, but as long as Li Shiming is not asked to rearrange it, his analytical and computing abilities, coupled with the cooperation of IBMz15, will make it extremely easy to repair it.
While Li Shiming and Yin Shilan were repairing the formation together, formation masters from other small islands also came and started the same work.
"Take a break!" Zhuge Xuan came to the two of them and reminded them.
His spiritual sense swept over the repaired area and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Because Li Shiming and Yin Shilan worked together on the repair work faster than he, a high-level formation master, could. Not only was the progress fast, but the degree of completion was also high, so there was almost no need for him to intervene again.
After ten hours of repair, Li Shiming and Yin Shilan were also tired. Although they had spiritual thoughts, they were not foundation-building cultivators after all. Their spiritual thoughts were developed in advance, and long-term use would still make them extremely mentally exhausted.
"Uncle-master, I'm afraid the work here may not be completed in ten days!" Li Shiming stopped the work in his hands and said helplessly.
"Ten days is considered early. The damage to Tianquan and Kaiyang Islands was the most serious. Our Tianji Island was the least damaged!" Zhuge Xuan shook his head bitterly.
The Big Dipper is divided into Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang and Yaoguang. The seven islands are named after the seven stars.
"Uncle-master, what force did this?" Li Shiming asked in a low voice.
The reason why I didn't ask whether it was a sea monster was that anyone with eyes could see that it was caused by the sword light.
The only ones who can use sword light are cultivators. I wonder how powerful the sword cultivator is to be able to cut the formation into this state in front of seven Jindan cultivators.
"Don't ask so many questions, your task is to repair the formation!" Zhuge Xuan waved his hand to signal Li Shiming not to ask any more questions, and he replied in a low voice.
Seeing this, Li Shiming had to suppress his curiosity and sat aside to rest.
He took out stir-fried bamboo shoots, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed pork with rice flour, twice-cooked pork, and braised pork, all of which were spiritual foods, and placed them on the makeshift small table. He also took out a jade bowl and filled it with two bowls of spiritual rice and placed them aside.
"Well, uncle-master, would you like to come over for dinner together?" He then remembered that Zhuge Xuan was there, and took out a jade bowl and asked.
"I can't eat it!" Zhuge Xuan looked at Yin Shilan standing gently beside Li Shiming and shook his head.
Li Shiming did not persuade Yin Shilan much. He asked her to sit down. The energy consumed in the previous repair was quite large. How could she make up for it without eating something good?
In the past, Yin Shilan's spiritual food was mostly vegetarian. Since Li Shiming obtained more than 10,000 sea beast corpses, although Li Shiming disposed of the sea beast corpses, he also left a lot of edible parts.
The spiritual plants that Li Shiming planted on Yingzui Island were all seasonings, which came in handy.
For a long time, the staple food of Yin Shilan and Li Shiming was the flesh and blood of these sea beasts.
In order to make the spiritual meat taste better, Li Shiming even learned cooking through the information in IBMz15 and mastered many famous dishes from his previous life.
Now Yin Shilan has become accustomed to eating spiritual meat, and is even more accustomed to Li Shiming's care for her.
Just as Li Shiming and Yin Shilan were having a meal together, a figure landed beside them. Li Shiming felt that he could not move at all, as if he was restrained by something.
"Daddy!" Yin Shilan stood up happily when she saw the person coming.
But then he thought of Li Shiming beside him, and lowered his head with a red face.
When Li Shiming heard her address, how could he not know the identity of the visitor.
As Yin Shilan spoke, he felt his whole body relax and the feeling of restraint disappeared.
"This must be Li Shiming, right? He's a pretty good young man!" Elder Yin looked at Yin Shilan lovingly, and while speaking, he turned to look at Li Shiming, his eyes gleaming with a gleam.
Li Shiming felt cold all over. He even suspected that if Yin Shilan had not been there, he would have been killed directly by Elder Yin's gaze.
Elder Yin was actually quite satisfied with Li Shiming, but when he saw his daughter having a meal with Li Shiming intimately, he felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.
In Elder Yin's perception, Li Shiming's strength is extremely outstanding among ordinary cultivators of this age.
In addition, Li Shiming also practiced body-refining techniques and mastered spiritual thoughts, which is almost the standard configuration of a top genius.
But he knew that the sect did not provide any training for Li Shiming in this area, and this was entirely due to Li Shiming's own luck.
In addition, and most importantly, Li Shiming’s formation level is very strong.
Elder Yin knew his daughter well. He had been worried that Yin Shilan, who had a dull personality, would not be able to find someone she liked.
Yin Shilan has seen many top geniuses, and because of her identity, she has become the pursuit target of many top geniuses, but no one can catch Yin Shilan's eyes.
"Hello..." Li Shiming quickly stood up and saluted, but he didn't know how to address Elder Yin.
Elder Yin did not reveal his identity. Although he had some guesses about Yin Shilan's identity, there was no communication between him and Yin Shilan in this regard, so he was afraid of calling the other person's identity incorrectly.
"Just call me uncle!" Elder Yin glanced at Yin Shilan who was a little worried, and shook his head helplessly.
"Hello, Uncle Yin!" Li Shiming changed his words.
At this moment, Zhuge Xuan, who was watching from a distance, couldn't help but twitch his lips, secretly sighing at Li Shiming's good luck. He could be said to have found a super tough guy.
"Fellow Daoist Yin, didn't you find that guy?" Several figures flew down and an old monk asked.
Li Shiming's already nervous heart almost stopped beating at this moment, because the falling figures gave him a great sense of oppression.
These people are all Golden Elixirs. The number of Golden Elixirs he has seen in this short period of time is more than all the Golden Elixirs he has heard of before.
Yin Shilan used voice transmission to secretly introduce the identities of the Jindan to Li Shiming. Her voice transmission in front of the Jindan didn't have much effect, but for the sake of Elder Yin, no one would care about such a small move.
Li Shiming finally understood that these golden elixirs were from the golden elixir elders of the seven major sects.
"No, he was injured so badly, he might have died somewhere!" Elder Yin shook his head.
“I’m afraid it’s not that easy. Although he was seriously injured, his physique as a sword cultivator means he can still survive for a while!” The female elder Lu of Shuiyun Sect objected.
Elder Yin did not participate in the battle. He notified the elders of various sects to come and search for the enemy after the battle was over. It was normal that he did not have a clear understanding of the enemy's strength.
"It depends on whether other fellow Taoists can find him. We must find out why he is here. I have a feeling there will be big trouble!" Elder Jie of the Holy Ice Sect said in a deep voice.
This time, each sect sent out Jindan elders, together with the seven Jindan elders on the Seven Star Island, a total of fourteen Jindan elders gathered, which shows how much importance the seven major sects attach to this matter.
Li Shiming was listening at the side and also heard some clues.
An unknown Jindan sword cultivator appeared near the Seven Star Island, triggering a great battle. The seven Jindans on the Seven Star Island joined forces and took advantage of the formation to severely injure the unknown Jindan sword cultivator, forcing him to escape.
It was hard to imagine how powerful that Jindan sword cultivator was. It was also the first time that Li Shiming began to doubt the strength of the sect's Jindan.
They are both golden elixirs, so could the difference between them be so huge?
"Then let's wait and find a way to get information from the other side of the sea. We must know what happened over there. Otherwise, would a Jindan sword cultivator risk his life to cross the sea just to fight with us?" Elder Gong of Jinghong Sect sighed helplessly.
Only then did Li Shiming know the identity of the Jindan sword cultivator. He was a cultivator from the other side of the sea. He just didn't know where the other side of the sea was. This news had never been heard of in the sect.
"Master Du Hai, I'm sorry to bother you with this matter. Please help me find out through Buddhist channels!" Elder Yin said to Master Du Hai of the Wanfo Sect.
"This matter will be handled by the Wanfo Sect, and it will take some time to get a reply!" Master Du Hai accepted without hesitation.
Just as Elder Yin said, other sects have less contact with the outside world, and only the Wanfo Sect has a channel to communicate with the outside world. Cooperation among the seven sects is also a common agreement.
Now that we are in trouble, it is only natural for the Wanfo Sect to lend a hand.
