"Have you met Master Li?" On Yongle Island, seeing that Elder Ren Xun's face had recovered its health, Elder Jin Kai asked.

"Yes, Master Li's alchemy skills are the best I have ever seen!" Elder Ren Xun respectfully took out a jade bottle and presented it to Elder Jin Kai.

The reason he went to see Li Shiming this time was, on the one hand, to ask for help with alchemy, and on the other hand, to judge Li Shiming's quality in person. This was the task given to him by Patriarch Jin Kai on behalf of Tianxing Trading Company.

Patriarch Jin Kai took the jade bottle and saw that there was a fourth-grade high-level healing elixir in the jade bottle. Feeling the surging medicinal power of the fourth-grade high-level healing elixir, amazement flashed in his eyes.

Before, I judged Li Shiming from the side, not directly after seeing the fourth-grade advanced elixir.

Originally, he thought that Li Shiming's alchemy skills might be very strong, but it was probably because these country bumpkins from the Northern Shu Continent had never seen the world.

But after seeing this fourth-grade high-level elixir, he realized that he had underestimated Li Shiming.

"You have met Master Li. Do you think Master Li will accept our recruitment?" asked Patriarch Jin Kai in a deep voice.

This is his main purpose. Instead of spending money to find Li Shiming to make the elixir, it would be better to spend more money to recruit Li Shiming to Tianxing Trading Company.

With Li Shiming's alchemy level, once he joins Tianxing Trading Company, he can almost allow Tianxing Trading Company to attract a group of Nascent Soul ancestors and further expand the power of Tianxing Trading Company.

"In my opinion, Master Li is not someone who is willing to stay in the Northern Shu Continent. I cannot give an accurate judgment on the matter of recruiting him, but Master Li will definitely not be willing to stay in the Northern Shu Continent forever!" Patriarch Ren Xun thought for a while and replied.

He thought of Li Shiming asking him for the Mahayana practice method. If Li Shiming didn't have higher requirements, how could he want the Mahayana practice method.

Besides, Li Shiming has become a late Jindan cultivator at such a young age. As long as they reveal some information about the outside world of immortal cultivation to Li Shiming, I believe that Li Shiming is very likely to be tempted.

"Very good, since he is unwilling to give in, it is easy to deal with. You should find a way to have more contact with Master Li and make friends with him!" said Patriarch Jin Kai with a smile.

Patriarch Ren Xun's face turned bitter. This time, he had paid a huge price to ask Li Shiming to make the elixir.

The only way to contact Li Shiming is to ask him to refine the elixir, but for outsiders like them who want to ask Li Shiming for help, the price is really painful.

"By the way, when you met Master Li, what did you think of his talent for cultivation?" asked Patriarch Jin Kai, thinking of something.

"Master Li is very young, around fifty years old, and he is in the late Jindan stage. Such a talent for cultivation is truly amazing!" Speaking of Li Shiming's talent for cultivation, Ren Xun, who is a Yuanying cultivator, couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.

"I know the cost of asking Master Li to refine the elixir is a bit high, so I will pay the reward!" The eyes of Patriarch Jin Kai lit up slightly, he suppressed the thoughts in his mind and waved his hand.

Elder Ren Xun showed surprise on his face. He was a Nascent Soul cultivator who had just been promoted not long ago. How could he compare in wealth to the veteran cultivator in the middle Nascent Soul stage in front of him?

Since Patriarch Jin Kai is willing to pay, then contacting Li Shiming would be a great thing.

He was eager to meet Li Shiming again and refine all the fourth-grade elixirs he had accumulated into fourth-grade high-level elixirs. The increased cultivation speed alone was enough to make him excited.

Although he was curious about why Patriarch Jin Kai did this, it was not his place to guess the other party's identity.

In the training room of Zhijian Peak, Li Shiming sat cross-legged on a Putuan, practicing the 'Five Rhythms Qi Training Technique'.

Venerable Hui Jing, who was beside him, was also sitting cross-legged. One of his brains was inside Venerable Hui Jing's body, observing Venerable Hui Jing's practice.

Venerable Hui Jing officially began to practice the 'Liu Yan Eclipse Sun Technique'. Since Venerable Hui Jing's previous technique was moderate and peaceful, without any bias, Venerable Hui Jing did not need to abandon his original cultivation.

Of course, it is not so easy to convert the original cultivation into the cultivation of 'Liuyan Eclipse Sun'.

The practice of 'Liu Yan Eclipse Sun Technique' started directly from the Nascent Soul Chapter. His Nascent Soul sat cross-legged in his body, and the practice route of 'Liu Yan Eclipse Sun Technique' began to operate on the Nascent Soul's body.

A look of pain appeared on Yuanying's little face. The technique he practiced before was peaceful and there was no flame pattern in Yuanying's body. As a result, the flame generated by the first practice of 'Liuyan Eclipse Sun Technique' had an impact on Yuanying.

The Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator is very fragile before it is activated into a Dharmakāya.

The Nascent Soul of Venerable Hui Jing endured the pain and practiced the 'Liuyan Eclipse Sun' technique over and over again.

At the same time, inside the main body outside, the 'Liuyan Eclipse Sun' technique was running synchronously.

The cultivation of the Yuanying Patriarch is not comparable to that of a Jindan cultivator like Li Shiming. The time spent on practicing the techniques is often measured in months or years.

Li Shiming had no intention of leaving Chijian Peak, so he also started practicing along with Venerable Hui Jing.

As time went by, he consumed all the Fantasy Moon Spirit Fruits, and the 'Human Reincarnation Art' greatly increased his mental strength.

"Master!" Li Yuanba bowed and greeted Master Jian.

"Yuan Ba, I called you here this time because I have something to tell you!" Patriarch Jian said with a smile, pointing to a chair beside him.

Li Yuanba first poured a cup of spiritual tea for Master Jian, and then sat on the chair.

"I plan to leave Beishu Continent in ten months. I don't know when we will meet again. The person I am most worried about in Beishu Continent is you!" Patriarch Jian looked at his disciple and said reluctantly.

He wanted to take Li Yuanba away with him, but he didn't dare to do so.

Even though it is said that in order to cross the ocean one needs the strength of the Nascent Soul stage, it does not mean that one can really cross the ocean with the strength of the Nascent Soul stage.

The danger of his departure this time was great because there was no safe route.

Why can the Yuanying ancestor of Tianxing Trading Company travel safely back and forth in the ocean? It is because Tianxing Trading Company has established shipping routes long ago and opened up all the links along the way.

The spiritual beasts in the sea are not unable to communicate. The stronger the spiritual beast, the higher its wisdom.

However, many spirit beasts hate human cultivators. It is because human cultivators have cultivation bodies that make spirit beasts jealous. Unless they are spirit beasts with powerful bloodlines, the rest of the spirit beasts will constantly change their bodies into human forms when they become great monsters.

Therefore, it is not easy to establish a safe route. It is necessary to find spiritual beasts that are relatively friendly to humans in the ocean and pass through their sphere of influence.

The Elephant Sword Patriarch has no safe route and has to grope his way through the ocean on his own, which is extremely dangerous.

The ocean is not the home ground of human cultivators. It is extremely difficult to win when encountering a fourth-grade spirit beast in the ocean. The fourth-grade spirit beast has the advantage of the environment, and even if you can't defeat it, you can use the environmental advantage to deal with it.

Just like the old ancestor Weng Zhao before, he possessed the powerful attacking ability of "Nanming Lihuo". It can be said that his attack power definitely exceeded that of a normal fourth-grade spirit beast. However, when fighting with a fourth-grade spirit beast in the ocean, his "Nanming Lihuo" could not exert its full power at all.

In addition, never underestimate spiritual beasts. Spiritual beasts possess all kinds of strange innate abilities. Once they reach the fourth grade, their innate abilities are comparable to the magical powers of human cultivators.

It was precisely because of this situation that Patriarch Jian did not think of taking Li Yuanba away with him.

Although he wanted to do so very much, Li Yuanba's talent was too good. He was already in the late Jindan stage. As long as he accumulated more than a hundred years at most, he would be promoted to the Yuanying stage.

The Nascent Soul ancestor who was over a hundred years old reminded him of the seniors in Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion. A Nascent Soul who was over a hundred years old would almost certainly be able to advance to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and there was a great possibility that it would even be advanced to the late stage of the Nascent Soul.

"Master, are you leaving now?" Li Yuanba was shocked by the news.

"You have already grasped the essence of 'Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky'. You no longer need my guidance in your practice!" said Patriarch Jian with a smile.

Tears flashed in Li Yuanba's eyes. He still remembered that he was chosen as a disciple by Master Jian. After that, Master Jian gave him the greatest help and made him a true swordsman.

Wanjian Peak, this treasure that makes Jindan cultivators jealous, was given directly to himself by Ancestor Jian.

Not to mention the 'Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky' which was higher in grade than any other martial arts technique in the Northern Shu Continent. This martial art allowed him to raise his achievement ceiling infinitely and even made him a disciple of the 'Sword Intent Soaring to the Sky Pavilion'.

"Silly boy, we will meet again after you reach the Nascent Soul stage!" Patriarch Jian walked to Li Yuanba, patted his head lightly and said.

"I will come to find you!" Li Yuanba said solemnly.

The Beishu Continent is too barren, and he has long considered leaving the Beishu Continent. Once his Nascent Soul stage is stabilized, he will leave the Beishu Continent and go outside to see the bigger world.

"This is the golden corpse core that I obtained. I give it to you!" Patriarch Jian took out a jade box and placed it in front of Li Yuanba and said.

Li Yuanba naturally knew the origin of the golden corpse's core, and he knew even more the value of the golden corpse's core.

Ever since the news of Li Shiming's advancement to the late Golden Core stage came out in the Northern Shu Continent, all the Nascent Soul ancestors have been trying their best to find suitable spiritual objects as a reward for asking Li Shiming to help them refine the elixir.

It was no secret in the Northern Shu Continent that Li Shiming liked to refine corpses, and the golden corpse core became the most sought-after fourth-grade spiritual object.

It is precisely because of Li Shiming's preference that the value of the golden corpse core has greatly increased, almost more than double its previous value.

"Master, how about I use this golden corpse core to ask Master Li to refine a fourth-grade elixir for you?" Li Yuanba did not want to accept the gift from Ancestor Jian, mainly because it was too valuable, he suggested.

"Your master doesn't have any fourth-grade elixir to make pills. You should keep it. Although it is best for sword cultivators to concentrate on the way of the sword, you have your own path. Since you have chosen to refine corpses, a golden corpse can be of considerable help to you!" said the Sword Patriarch, waving his hand.

When Li Yuanba heard his master say this, he silently put the jade box away.

Coming out of Chongxiao Peak, he directly used 'Lotus Steps Everywhere' to hurry on his way.

His divine power of walking on water no longer needed to be kept secret, so he did not need to worry about anything when using it. Combined with the treasure of the Heart Hoop, the distance his 'Lotus Steps' could move each time was doubled.

As long as he doesn't get close to a certain distance from the Yuanying Ancestor and be suppressed by the Yuanying Ancestor's power, he is confident that he can escape from the Yuanying Ancestor's pursuit.

He did not return to Jieshan City, but came to the Jieshan Checkpoint.

Although the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint still existed, it was no longer as tense and strict as before. He said hello to the three Jindan elders and passed through the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint.

Even at the checkpoint on the right side, one only had to nod and one could pass without any formalities.

Who says that the relationship between the six major sects is currently in a state of alliance, and the disciples of each other can move freely in the sphere of influence of any sect.

Of course, there are still necessary controls, but some monks who have been recorded with bad records are not included in this list.

This is the first time that Li Yuanba has gone directly to Shushan Sect, which is related to his different identity.

In the past, he was just a junior in the Northern Shu Continent. In addition to the conflict between good and evil, he had to be cautious even if he entered the sphere of influence of the righteous.

But it is different now. Ancestor Jian has not left the Northern Shu Continent. He has two Nascent Soul ancestors above him, and he himself is the number one in the Golden Core Stage. He has no mortal feud with the Shushan Sect, so it is not unacceptable for him to come to the Shushan Sect.

Outside the mountain gate, he uttered a spell. In fact, he didn't need to utter the spell, as Li Shiming inside knew of his arrival. The spell was for outsiders to see.

A silver corpse flew out from the mountain gate. It was the only silver corpse that could freely enter and exit the mountain gate of Shushan Sect.

This silver corpse is naturally Li Shiming's silver corpse. In order to facilitate the silver corpse's entry and exit, the sect specially issued a jade identity disc to the silver corpse to facilitate its entry and exit.

The silver corpse came in front of Li Yuanba, made a gesture of invitation, and took Li Yuanba into the mountain gate.

Being led in by Li Shiming's silver corpse made many Shushan Sect cultivators pay attention to Li Yuanba.

After knowing Li Yuanba's identity, it is not surprising. There are many rumors circulating in the Northern Shu Continent, including the rumor that Li Shiming and Li Yuanba are good friends.

Today's situation only confirmed that the rumors were true. As for the matter of the alliance between good and evil, given Li Shiming's status and position, who would care about this matter?

Li Shiming, let alone the Jindan stage demon cultivators, even the Yuanying stage demon cultivators would rush to make friends with him.

Li Yuanba flew into the Chijian Peak. Unlike other cultivators who came here, he not only came to the top of the Chijian Peak, but also walked into Li Shiming's cave.

He went straight to Li Shiming's practice room and sat cross-legged in front of Li Shiming.

"Long time no see, fellow Taoist!" Li Shiming communicated with Li Yuanba using his divine thoughts.

Li Shiming is currently in the process of cultivation, and probably only when facing his own clone will he not need to be on guard at all.

"Long time no see, fellow Taoist!" Li Yuanba replied with a smile.

Li Yuanba took out the spiritual object he brought and put it aside. He then reached out and took out a jade bottle from Li Shiming's mustard seed ring. He looked at it and poured out a fourth-grade high-level healing elixir, which he put into another jade bottle.
