Patriarch Lu was also very depressed. He had just finished his retreat and had not yet entered into deep-level cultivation when he was awakened by the sect.

This kind of thing rarely happens, and events that can alarm the Yuanying ancestor are extremely rare in the Northern Shu Continent.

For general affairs, a Jindan cultivator is enough to handle them.

But since it was a Fake Infant powerhouse, every big sect must have a Nascent Soul ancestor ready to guard the sect at any time. The other Nascent Soul ancestors of Senluo Sect had all entered into deep-level cultivation, and it was also Ancestor Lu's turn to be on duty, so the sect woke him up.

Therefore, at least before receiving the exact information from the Director of Fengyi, Patriarch Lu would not be able to practice in seclusion.

Although he was quite angry, he still chose to wait and see when he encountered an alien Nascent Soul ancestor trying to invade.

The fight between Yuanying ancestors should be avoided as much as possible, that is, the fourth-grade sea beast and the Weng Zhao ancestor encountered each other at sea and fought.

If Patriarch Weng Zhao dares to start a Nascent Soul War on the mainland, what awaits him will be all the ancestors from the six major sects who can be mobilized to kill him together.

The destructive power caused by the battles between Yuanying ancestors will cause irreparable damage to the land. If it weren't for a mortal feud, no Yuanying ancestor would do this.

In Patriarch Lu's perception, Patriarch Weng Zhao's breath disappeared, and he sent a message to the fourth-grade sea beast from a distance, as a greeting.

After regaining his composure, he sensed Li Yuanba, and at the same time he sensed that Li Yuanba had already achieved elixir. His originally bad mood suddenly became better.

"Yuanba, you have achieved the golden elixir!" His figure passed through the formation and came to where Li Yuanba was and said with a smile.

His authority is naturally the highest, and all sect formations will be open to him.

"Greetings, ancestor!" Li Yuanba hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

As for He Wei and Liu Gang, they lowered their heads and dared not look at the true face of Ancestor Lu. They just called him "Ancestor" and would not say anything else.

This is normal, there are not many Jindan cultivators in the sect who can meet with the Yuanying Patriarch in private. The Yuanying Patriarch is the foundation of the sect, and it is rare for him to come out for hundreds of years.

Patriarch Lu ignored the two Jindan cultivators. In his eyes, there was only Li Yuanba, his direct disciple.

Of course he was happy. It had only been a short time since he last sent out the resources to make the elixir. He was still hoping that Li Yuanba would be able to make the elixir within a few decades.

Unexpectedly, when we met again after several years, Li Yuanba had already become a Jindan cultivator, and judging from his aura, he was still stable in the early Jindan realm, no worse than a Jindan cultivator who had practiced for more than ten years.

"Good, good, it seems that your master's lineage has been passed down!" Patriarch Lu smiled with great satisfaction.

Li Yuanba invited Patriarch Lu to sit aside. He Wei and Liu Gang also knew that they had nothing to do here, so they bowed and left.

"I would also like to thank the ancestor for his help!" Li Yuanba bowed and expressed his gratitude.

"Even if I didn't come, you wouldn't be in any trouble. But I got to see your research on formations, which really opened my eyes!" Li Yuanba became a Jindan cultivator, which made Patriarch Lu pay more attention to this disciple and speak to him more kindly.

"I really like formations, so I did more research on them!" Li Yuanba replied modestly.

Ever since the original body Li Shiming achieved the status of a formation master, Li Yuanba has shared Li Shiming's formation knowledge and insights. Although he does not have the help of the formation starlight sea, he can call upon Li Shiming's formation starlight sea and IBMz15 at any time, so he is almost equivalent to a formation master.

Of course, I won’t tell these to Patriarch Lu. The ability of the formation displayed before was already amazing.

“Although I am not practicing swordsmanship, I do agree with your master’s approach of focusing solely on swordsmanship and ignoring other aspects. Judging from your sword intent, you have not fallen behind in swordsmanship and even have the energy to study formations. You have to walk your own path!” Patriarch Lu nodded slightly.

Originally, he shouldn't have said such words, but his ideas were not in line with those of Elder Jian.

A traditional Yuanying ancestor has dabbled in all kinds of skills of cultivators. This is the way of survival for cultivators.

However, Elder Jian faced all troubles with his sword-cultivation method of breaking all obstacles with one sword.

He was well aware of the principle that steel is prone to breakage, but Elder Jian was a stubborn traditional swordsman and also insisted on his own philosophy.

He was unable to persuade his own disciples, so he could only give some advice to his grandchildren to help them avoid taking detours.

In fact, neither Elder Jian nor Elder Lu was wrong. Different concepts can cultivate different cultivators.

Most of the pure sword cultivators will fall on the road of advancement. When facing an enemy that they cannot defeat, they will face a situation of powerlessness.

Li Yuanba is a sword cultivator. Although he has learned many skills other than sword cultivation, his sword intent is still sharp. The reason is that he has killed enemies who are much stronger than him many times, which has made his sword intent far superior to that of ordinary sword cultivators.

"Yes, Ancestor, I wonder how the master is doing?" Li Yuanba couldn't help but ask with concern when he heard Ancestor Lu mention his master Elder Jian.

"His condition is still normal. Becoming an infant is not something that can be achieved overnight!" Patriarch Lu replied with a smile, and then he changed the subject and said, "You refined Wanjian Peak into a magic weapon. I have already mentioned this to your master. He is too stubborn and unwilling to have a magic weapon other than his own flying sword. That's why the younger generations in the sect are eyeing him covetously. You did a good job. Wanjian Peak is the inheritance treasure of your lineage. How could it fall into the hands of others!"

Li Yuanba was somewhat surprised that Patriarch Lu actually knew about the sect's Jindan cultivators' spying on Wanjian Peak. Thinking that Patriarch Lu was keeping an eye on Wanjian Peak, if those Jindan cultivators really succeeded, Patriarch Lu's revenge would probably teach those Jindan cultivators a lesson on how to behave.

"I have discussed with my master about refining Wanjian Peak into a magic weapon, and my master agreed with me to do so!" Although Li Yuanba knew that Patriarch Lu didn't mind him refining the magic weapon privately, he still explained.

"He is quite open-minded towards his disciples!" Patriarch Lu complained a little.

Li Yuanba pretended not to hear what Patriarch Lu said about his disciple. What could he, as his disciple, do?

"You have already been promoted to the Golden Core stage. I came out in a hurry this time and did not bring any good things with me. Take this token with you. If any old guy wants to attack you, take out the token!" Patriarch Lu thought of something, took out a token and threw it over and said.

"Thank you, ancestor!" Li Yuanba took the token and thanked him.

As soon as I got the token, I felt the aura inside. This aura was the same as that of Ancestor Lu. The patterns on it were extremely complicated. The material used to make the token was of the third grade, but it was not a magic weapon.

In a sense, this token is more precious than any Jindan stage magic weapon because the token represents Ancestor Lu.

To be an enemy of the cultivator holding the token is to be an enemy of Patriarch Lu.

Of course, most Jindan cultivators will not recognize this token, but Yuanying ancestors will definitely recognize the origin of the token and the owner of the aura within the token.

With the token by your side, at least when you meet a Nascent Soul Ancestor, it can make some of them feel cautious.

The ancestors who have reached the Nascent Soul stage act as they please and without restraint. This is the behavior of the Nascent Soul ancestors in following their heart and is part of their cultivation.

But it is precisely this kind of mentality that is the most terrifying. If an almost unlimited Nascent Soul ancestor wants to kill someone, he will be completely unreasonable.

"Be careful in the near future, and try to accept missions that are closer to the mountain gate!" Patriarch Lu stood up and gave Li Yuanba another instruction via voice transmission before he was about to leave.

This was his love for Li Yuanba. Although Li Yuanba was involved in the overall situation of the Northern Shu continent, his position was too low and he could not know many secrets.

Without waiting for Li Yuanba to answer, Patriarch Lu disappeared.

At the Chijian Peak of Shushan Sect, Li Shiming was thinking. He had felt that the task of killing Director Fengyi was going very smoothly.

After remotely controlling his clone Li Yuanba through his mind and experiencing the aftermath of the Nascent Soul Patriarch's battle firsthand, he realized how lucky he was to have killed Director Fengyi.

Although Supervisor Feng Yi is only a fake infant, according to the consensus of the immortal cultivation world, a fake infant is only slightly weaker than a Nascent Soul, but it is already considered a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

On Zhenbei Island, the clone Li Yuanba encountered only the aftermath of the battle of the Nascent Soul Patriarch. The real battlefield was in the depths of the distant sea. But even so, the aftermath of the battle was still enough to easily wipe him out.

It can only be said that Li Shiming was extremely lucky. At the beginning, the Director of Fengyi used the method of pretending to be an infant out of the body in order to act secretly and not alert any cultivators.

If Supervisor Feng Yi really lets out his full combat strength, it is hard to say whether Li Shiming's entry-level 'Lotus Steps' can escape.

Mainly because the body is in a state of fusion with the fake baby, its attack distance is extremely far, far exceeding the state of the fake baby being out of the body.

When the fake infant left the body, Supervisor Feng Yi did not carry any magical weapon for attack. If he had really brought the fourth-grade jade ruler or the fourth-grade flying sword with him, the two fourth-grade magical weapons would definitely be able to kill Li Shiming from a long distance.

Li Shiming reflected on his recent mentality in his heart. He must be respectful to the Yuanying Ancestor, otherwise he would die without knowing how.

After adjusting his mindset, he began to make talismans again.

This is not to increase the means of attack. With the protection given to him by the sect, he does not have many opportunities to take action.

He made talismans for the purpose of developing his ability as a master of formations, and among the talismans there was a type called the 'Formation Breaking Talisman'.

There is no fixed way to draw the 'Array Breaking Talisman'. Instead, the array master transfers part of his own array starlight sea onto talisman paper through the technique of talismans. It contains the array master's research on breaking arrays, so that the 'Array Breaking Talisman' can break the breakable arrays recorded in the array starlight sea.

Of course, due to the different materials of the talisman paper of the "Breaking Array Talisman", the knowledge of breaking array that can be contained in the "Breaking Array Talisman" is also different.

Li Shiming was extremely wealthy, so he naturally chose the best material for talisman paper. Even the talisman ink was made of the top-quality materials he could use.

The talisman paper is put into the computer room space, and the entire talisman-making process is carried out in the computer room space. With the micron-level control capability in the computer room space, the talismans produced can reach the maximum limit that the talisman paper can withstand.

He will not sell the 'Formation Breaking Talisman' he made. All of them will be stored by him. They are strategic-level materials.

At the same time, the process of making talismans is also a process of self-cultivation and developing one's state of mind.

He wanted to find an opportunity for a breakthrough by making talismans.

Since he couldn't go out anyway, he could try every possible opportunity.

In addition to making talismans, he is also continuing his study and research in science and technology.

Every day he would set aside six hours to study and research the technology of his previous life. In the factory area opened up by the space formation in the belly of Chijian Peak, with the help of divine thoughts, he could serve as dozens of people.

Currently, the machines in the factory area have shifted from heavy industry to electronics industry.

The electronic components that Li Shiming originally needed to process independently in the computer room can now be completely self-sufficient.

As for heavy industry, huge furnaces and hydraulic forming machines have all been eliminated.

The equipment refining techniques he used and the processing performed by the Red Sun Spirit Fire could completely replace a lot of heavy industries from his previous life, which also greatly saved space within the space formation.

The research on chips is still ongoing, and he has never interrupted this work, but there are still many difficulties to face if he wants to upgrade from micron-level chips to nano-level chips.

However, micron-level chips are enough for him to use. Whether it is drones, missiles, or programmable systems in various mechanical equipment, the computing power of micron-level chips can handle it.

Research on weapons from previous lives is also progressing rapidly.

The research on weapons is limited to research. Before he becomes a Jindan cultivator and is able to refine magic-level weapons, he will not make weapons to fight against the enemy.

The 'mid-grade magical weapon Gatling' he made before could no longer meet his combat power needs.

The 'Top-grade Magical Electromagnetic Cannon' is actually not a complete combat weapon. It takes a long time to charge, and the energy system is not within the system of the 'Top-grade Magical Electromagnetic Cannon'.

Although the 'superior magic weapon electromagnetic cannon' can break through the defense of a Jindan cultivator, that is when the Jindan cultivator has lost the ability to resist and has no defensive magic weapon.

When the 'superior-grade electromagnetic cannon' is actually used in battle, its effect is almost zero. The Jindan cultivator's perception of danger will make him dodge in advance, and the 'superior-grade electromagnetic cannon' cannot even hit the enemy, let alone kill the enemy.

After Li Shiming is promoted to the Golden Core stage, the 'Superior-grade Magical Artifact Electromagnetic Cannon' will completely lose its function. Just like the 'Mid-grade Magical Artifact Gatling Gun', it will be unable to meet his growing combat power needs.

Li Shiming's research direction is to wait until he is promoted to the Jindan stage, and then he will find out how to combine the weapons from his previous life with formations, refining and other immortal cultivation skills to create conventional weapons that can threaten Jindan stage enemies.

To achieve this goal, knowledge about weapons accounts for more than half of his daily study and research.

In addition, his research also includes the in-depth application of spirit stones, especially after he became a master of formations, how to research new formations to allow spirit stones to be converted into electricity more durable and safer in the smallest space.

All his research was to open up a new path, a path that no monk had ever embarked on.
