Li Shiming's thinking speed is assisted by his life-saving magic weapon IBMz15. It can be said that his instantaneous thinking ability exceeds that of any cultivator in the world.
Just as the ghost flew over, his life-saving magic weapon IBMz15 had already analyzed several solutions for him, waiting for his choice.
He chose the safest one among them. With a slight movement of his mind, a sky ghost flew out from the computer room.
As soon as the sky ghost appeared, its body continued to expand and grow until it was big enough to wrap around Li Shiming's body. It pounced on Li Shiming and draped itself over him like a piece of clothing.
The celestial ghost was transparent, as if it didn't exist, and it couldn't be seen at all after it was draped over Li Shiming's body.
But the ghosts lost their target all of a sudden. Ghosts don't have eyes, they find their enemies through perception.
The shell of the Heavenly Ghost came from the Heavenly Demon. Although its strength was only at the middle third level and could not be improved due to the influence of its master Li Shiming's realm, the shell of the Heavenly Demon allowed it to isolate itself from the perception of ghosts.
Li Shiming tried it out first. He slowly walked in front of a third-grade ghost. The third-grade ghost was only a few centimeters away from him, but it had no sense of his position at all.
He smiled with satisfaction and prepared to activate 'Lotus Step by Step'.
But his smile froze, as he discovered that 'Lotus Blossoms Every Step' could not be used. Unwilling to believe in evil, he switched to 'A World Away' which consumed more energy, but it still could not be used.
He tried to fly off the ground again, but he could only fly up to one meter high and couldn't go any higher.
"Are the rules of the cave different from those outside?" A possibility occurred to him.
This caused him considerable trouble, and his greatest means of survival was to use his divine speed.
However, the speed advantage of the divine feet in the cave heaven is no longer there. Even when flying, the flying speed is greatly restricted and is limited to the speed at which the cultivator runs on the ground.
However, he soon discovered that he seemed to be able to utilize the physical strength of a great elder and use a purely power-based method such as running to burst out at a speed much faster than flying.
This discovery made him more cautious, and he flew at a height of one meter above the ground.
With the help of his 'Divine Eyes', he didn't have to worry about accidentally bumping into an invisible ghost.
Passing through countless ghosts, he became more and more horrified the further he flew inward.
The number of third-grade ghosts in the cave is probably far greater than the number of Jindan cultivators in the entire Beishu Continent.
What methods did the great Zhai Ge use to create so many ghosts, and what is the purpose of putting the ghosts here?
With doubts, he continued to move inward.
Suddenly, his whole body tensed up, and through his 'divine vision' he discovered a huge ghost in front of him.
"A fourth-grade ghost?" He said in his mind in disbelief.
This cave is not something that cultivators can explore. However, with so many third-grade ghosts, it would be extremely troublesome even for a Nascent Soul ancestor to come.
Not to mention the existence of the fourth-grade ghost. With the existence of this fourth-grade ghost, it would be even more difficult to enter the interior.
Li Shiming stayed where he was without moving. He was worried that the Heavenly Ghost's methods could not deceive the fourth-grade ghost. The fourth-grade ghost was equivalent to the existence of a Nascent Soul ancestor.
The fourth-grade ghost seemed to be on patrol. It flew past Li Shiming ten meters away and never noticed Li Shiming who was so close to it.
Li Shiming waited until the fourth-grade ghost disappeared before he heaved a long sigh of relief and continued to fly inward.
His natal magic weapon, IBM z15, is drawing a map based on his route. Although the direction cannot be distinguished in this space, the computing power of IBM z15 provides him with a real-time map.
All the places he had passed through and the areas observed by the 'Divine Eyes' were mapped by IBM z15. As he moved forward, the map would become more and more comprehensive.
Therefore, Li Shiming does not need to worry about having no sense of direction here. As long as he follows the markings on the map and spends some time, he can explore the entire space.
As for the fact that the Yuanying Patriarch discovered that the cave was opened, he was not too worried at the moment.
So many ghosts blocked the road, and the existence of the fourth-grade ghost was enough to hold back later cultivators for a long time.
Because of his 'divine vision', the speed of drawing the map was actually very fast, and everything within a radius of 500 meters from where he passed was recorded on the map.
It was difficult for later monks to draw a map here. There were no landmarks, and there were no objects in all directions. Apart from the black ground, the sky was completely black.
That is to say, the monk's eyesight must be able to see things in the dark, otherwise it will be even more troublesome.
While Li Shiming was exploring in the cave, the two Nascent Soul ancestors from the thirty-third heaven were confronting each other.
Although he was ready to fight, it was not so easy for the Nascent Soul Patriarch to start a war.
"Senior Jin, that place belongs to the Northern Shu continent. It is unacceptable for you to steal it!" Patriarch Lu said calmly.
"Since when did Master Zhai Ge become a native of the Northern Shu Continent?" Upon hearing what Master Lu said, Master Ren Xun couldn't help but retort.
Patriarch Jin Kai frowned, but it was too late to stop it.
"That place is the remains of a Mahayana cultivator. Wuwei, have you ever heard of the remains of a Mahayana cultivator before?" Ancestor Lu's heart moved, and he used voice transmission to ask Ancestor Jian.
Although the Northern Shu Continent had no knowledge of the Cave Heaven, they knew that "Great Power" was a respectful title for the Mahayana cultivators above the Nascent Soul Stage.
Perhaps the only one who knows something about this is Old Ancestor Jian.
Patriarch Jian recalled what he had seen and heard when he was in Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion. At that time, he spent most of his time practicing and did not see much about the outside world.
Suddenly, his heart moved a little, and he thought of a book he had read in Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion, in which it was mentioned that Mahayana cultivators used the cave heaven as their own cave residence.
"Perhaps that is a cave heaven, which can only be opened up by Mahayana cultivators!" said Patriarch Jian in a voice transmission.
"That should be the cave heaven. We in the Northern Shu continent know nothing about the cave heaven. That's why even though we know there is something unusual there, we can't discover the existence of the cave heaven!" Ancestor Lu said in a voice transmission.
Although all communication on the Northern Shu Continent was conducted through voice transmission, their actions could not be hidden from the eyes of Ancestor Jin Kai.
"It turns out you didn't know the secret of that place!" Ancestor Jin Kai glanced at Ancestor Ren Xun and said to the Yuanying ancestors of the Beishu Continent.
"It's just a cave, what's the big secret about it!" Patriarch Lu said with a deliberate smile.
"This is just your guess, right? Even if the cave is there, do you have a way to open it?" Patriarch Jin Kai was not surprised, he asked lightly.
The eight Nascent Soul ancestors were deep-minded and were able to keep their expressions unchanged, but the eyes of two of them changed slightly, and Ancestor Jin Kai figured out something.
"Haha, we can just leave today and let you guys explore first. How about we come over to explore after you finish your exploration?" He laughed loudly and teased.
His words made Patriarch Lu's face darken slightly. This was the truth. Even if the Northern Shu Continent knew what was there, they could not open the cave.
This frustration comes from the lack of knowledge. In the history of the Northern Shu Continent, even cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul rarely appear, let alone the knowledge about Mahayana cultivators.
Among the inherited skills of the major sects, those that can reach the late Nascent Soul stage are the most advanced. Even so, no cultivator has ever reached this level in history.
The Northern Shu Continent does not have enough resources to cultivate cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage, and this is not something that can be avoided by talent.
As for going out, although the ocean can be crossed as long as one has the strength of the Nascent Soul stage, it is not without danger. If one travels randomly without any route, the chance of encountering danger will greatly increase.
The Beishu Continent is not like those resource-rich continents, where there are mid- and late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators who have explored mature routes for other cultivators on the continent, allowing the early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators on the continent to travel out relatively safely.
Among them are Nascent Soul cultivators from the Northern Shu Continent who are accustomed to stability and occupy the resources of an entire continent. Although they are a bit poor, they are still much better than going out for adventure.
The most important thing is that it is not easy for the sect to cultivate a Nascent Soul Patriarch, and they do not want the Nascent Soul Patriarch to leave the continent.
A smile appeared on Patriarch Jin Kai's face. Being able to control the Yuanying ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent in this regard gave him the initiative.
The two sides do not need to fight immediately, as the basis of the Nascent Soul War is the scramble for resources.
As for the Yuanying ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent, they don’t even know how to obtain resources, so why do they need Ancestor Jin Kai to compete with them?
Ancestor Jin Kai, who was in an invincible position, was thinking about the worst outcome in his mind, which was to take the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Northern Shu Continent into the cave heaven and give up a small part in the distribution of resources.
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a strong space fluctuation came from below. The space fluctuation was not a one-time burst, but continued to spread.
There is a barrier between the Thirty-three Heavens and the world below. If the spatial fluctuations were not too strong, it would be impossible to sense what is below from within the Thirty-three Heavens.
His expression suddenly changed, and he thought of a possibility.
"You Xia has opened the cave!" He transmitted a message to Elder Ren Xun who also sensed the fluctuations in space.
"Damn it! The company trained him, but he betrayed the company!" Elder Ren Xun also looked unhappy.
Seeing that they have taken the initiative, the next step is negotiation, and they can get most of the benefits at a very small cost.
But it was the actions of Great Elder Youxia that made all of this go away.
The eight Nascent Soul ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent also sensed the spatial fluctuations, and they suddenly understood that the cave heaven had opened.
Although they didn't know how the cave was opened, such strong spatial fluctuations were very telling.
Now, whether it is the eight Nascent Soul ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent, or the ancestors Jin Kai and Ren Xun of the Tianxing Trading Company, none of them can stay here any longer.
They flew downwards together, and during the descent, they saw the ten-meter-high space gate emitting brilliant light.
The eyes of the eight Nascent Soul ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent lit up, but the look of Ancestor Jin Kai was sinister. He was thinking that if he saw Great Elder Youxia, he would extract his soul and torture him for a hundred years.
"The cave is open, let's go in and explore together. Whoever finds the things inside will own them!" Patriarch Jin Kai knew that he could no longer stop it, so he suggested.
The cave is right here, and there are many Nascent Soul ancestors in the Northern Shu Continent. If he doesn't go in to explore now, he's afraid that when other Nascent Soul cultivators from the Northern Shu Continent come over, he will have to avoid it even if he's in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
"Okay, it's a deal!" Patriarch Lu quickly discussed with the other Nascent Soul ancestors and soon replied loudly.
He stretched out his hand and gently slapped out a palm force, and Patriarch Jin Kai also slapped out a palm force, and they collided in the air with a crisp sound.
"It's a deal!" said Patriarch Jin Kai in a deep voice.
Both parties reached an agreement and were satisfied.
Both sides have their own ideas. Ancestor Jin Kai is worried that other Yuanying ancestors from Beishu Continent will come over, while the Yuanying ancestors from Beishu Continent are worried that the cultivators who have already entered will take away the spiritual objects in the cave.
When preparing to enter the cave, the eight Nascent Soul ancestors of the Northern Shu Continent became a little hesitant. Although they had an agreement, if Ancestor Jin Kai went in, he might launch a sneak attack on them while they were entering, and it would be difficult to resist.
"You go in first, and we will follow you!" Patriarch Jin Kai saw their doubts and waved his hand.
Since you have decided to cooperate, you should show some sincerity.
In fact, this agreement is beneficial to Patriarch Jin Kai. As he is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, he will naturally be able to find more spiritual objects in the cave.
Coupled with his familiarity with the knowledge of the cave heaven, he was confident that the eight Nascent Soul ancestors would not be able to take advantage of him.
The eight Nascent Soul ancestors maintained their formation and entered the space gate one by one. During the space transformation, they appeared in a cold and dark space.
"It's so weird here!" Patriarch Lu exclaimed in surprise when he found that his eyesight had been greatly affected and he could only see about a hundred meters.
"Be careful, I don't feel good!" Lan Weiyan, the ancestor of Yin Yang Sect, reminded softly.
Her spirit was the strongest among all the Nascent Soul ancestors, and she sensed a dangerous aura.
"It's best to form a battle formation. I can sense the breath of ghosts!" Venerable Huike said in a deep voice.
A spiritual object on his body was emitting a soft light, illuminating the place where he was.
But he was not happy at all. This spiritual object was a sensing treasure and had a very strong sensing effect on soul-like life.
At this time, the treasure emitted light, indicating that there was a ghost not far away, and its grade was not low.
Just when the eight Nascent Soul ancestors formed a battle formation, the figure of Ancestor Jin Kai appeared. After seeing the actions of the eight Nascent Soul ancestors, he was stunned at first, and then he relaxed when he realized that the eight Nascent Soul ancestors did not want to attack him.
He also didn't want to fight with the eight Nascent Soul ancestors in the cave. The situation in the cave was still unclear. It would be a pity if the battle destroyed something.
His gaze shifted away from the eight Nascent Soul ancestors, and when his gaze fell on the distance, his expression changed.
"We can only protect ourselves if we join forces!" Patriarch Jin Kai said in a deep voice to the eight Yuanying ancestors.
Elder Ren Xun, who had just entered, didn't know what was going on. When he heard his words, he thought he had misheard. But after seeing what was approaching, he continued to move closer to Elder Jin Kai.
