Li Shiming's delay and overly cautious behavior gave Yuqing Sect time to begin its investigation.
Although the Yuqing Sect is not a sect in the Central Plains, as a super power, they still have strong intelligence capabilities in the Central Plains.
You must know that there are the most super powers in Zhongzhou Continent, and every move here is related to the peace and stability of the entire cultivation world.
When the intelligence organization of a superpower is fully mobilized, especially when the Zhongzhou Continent is within the Yuqing Sect's intelligence network, it is not difficult to investigate the source of an aura.
In Zhongzhou Trading Company, there are many cultivators who have met Li Shiming.
Zhongzhou Trading Company is a commercial force, and the loyalty of ordinary members to the force is not as strong as that of ordinary sects. In addition, no one would think that identifying the source of an aura is a betrayal of Zhongzhou Trading Company.
As a result, just three days after the incident, Yuqing Sect investigated Li Shiming.
All the information about Li Shiming was placed in front of Master Duan Zhang. When Master Duan Zhang saw that Li Shiming was a cultivator from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he knew that Li Shiming was in the Dongqi Continent during the time when the 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl' was lost.
Great monk Duan Zhang immediately determined that Li Shiming was the monk who stole the "Shenxiao Thunder Pearl". However, although Yuqing Sect had determined this, it was unable to ask other forces for help, mainly because it was worried that the whereabouts of the "Shenxiao Thunder Pearl" would be known to other sects.
The Zhongzhou Continent is different from the Dongqi Continent. There is no super power in the Dongqi Continent, and even the combat power of those great monks is extremely limited.
However, Zhongzhou Continent not only has super powers, but even the strength of the great cultivators is far beyond that of Dongqi Continent.
The 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl' fell into Li Shiming's hands, and Yuqing Sect still had hope of getting it back from Li Shiming.
But if it fell into the hands of some super powers, then the Yuqing Sect would have no choice but to watch and not be able to do anything.
Therefore, Yuqing Sect mobilized its disciples in Zhongzhou Continent and launched the intelligence network at full capacity, trying to find Li Shiming at all costs.
Fortunately, while waiting for the drone satellite system to be established, Li Shiming set up a hidden formation, and then entered the cave through the hidden formation.
He started to practice in the 'Heavenly Dao' Hall and did not wander around the Zhongzhou Continent.
The most crucial thing is that because he is in the cave, the Zhongzhou Trading Company's Guest Jade Disc on his body cannot connect with the communication formation of the Zhongzhou Continent, and his position cannot be located through the Zhongzhou Trading Company's Guest Jade Disc.
The Yuqing Sect paid a huge price to bribe a manager of the Zhongzhou Trading Company just to find Li Shiming's location. As long as Li Shiming appeared in the Zhongzhou continent with the guest jade disc on him, he would be located.
Normally, such a thing would not happen in a super power, but Zhongzhou Trading Company is a commercial power, and Li Shiming is not a formal member of Zhongzhou Trading Company, but just a guest official.
Although the status of a guest official seems honorable, in fact he is not a real member of the Zhongzhou Trading Company, but rather an externally hired cultivator.
However, this supervisor did not know Li Shiming's true level. He was in Zhongzhou Continent, and Dongqi Continent was a backward continent. Even if Li Shiming had some fame in Dongqi Continent, he did not take it seriously.
The two great monks, Wang Changdong and Meng You, did not publicize Li Shiming's reputation, at least they did not want to do so in the short term.
Li Shiming has limited time. A great monk's furnace of elixir requires at least forty days, which consumes a lot of the alchemy master's energy.
The two great monks saw that Li Shiming had an excellent talent for cultivation. Li Shiming's time outside of cultivation was limited. If Li Shiming's reputation spread, with the number of great monks in Zhongzhou Continent, the two great monks would have to wait a long time if they wanted to find Li Shiming to make pills.
Their selfishness also caused Zhongzhou Commercial Bank to make a wrong judgment when Li Shiming was in trouble, which led to the supervisor trading Li Shiming's information.
Li Shiming practiced in the cave of the powerful Zhai Ge for a month. His five Nascent Souls practiced with all their strength, assisted by a fourth-grade advanced practice auxiliary elixir from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Although it was only a month, there were still some results from the practice.
The most obvious one was Mu Lei Yuan Ying. When he was practicing, he did not let Mu Lei Yuan Ying practice the 'Five Rhythms Qi Training Technique', but practiced the 'Jade Purity Thunder Classic'.
Anyway, with five Nascent Souls in his body, thanks to the 'Five Elements Qi Gathering Formation', no matter what kind of spiritual power he cultivates, it will be converted into five elements of thunder attribute spiritual power. This allows him to practice more freely.
The reason why Mu Lei's Nascent Soul was allowed to practice the 'Jade Purity Thunder Code' was due to the experience of his clone Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba's current cultivation speed is much faster than before he obtained the spiritual treasure Xingyijian. Accelerated cultivation is also an important feature of the spiritual treasure.
It's just that those who obtained the spiritual treasures were all Mahayana cultivators. The improvement in cultivation brought by the spiritual treasures was just a drop in the bucket for Mahayana cultivators, but for Li Shiming and Li Yuanba who were in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it greatly improved the results of their own cultivation.
Mu Lei Yuanying held the spiritual treasure 'Heavenly Thunder Hammer' in his hand. The spirit inside the 'Heavenly Thunder Hammer' had digested the 'Jade Purity Thunder Canon' during this period. When Mu Lei Yuanying was practicing the 'Jade Purity Thunder Canon', the spirit used the lightning rules imprint on the 'Heavenly Thunder Hammer' to help Mu Lei Yuanying speed up his practice.
This discovery made Li Shiming want to add a few more natal spiritual treasures. Unfortunately, his vision was too high. The fourth-grade refining materials that he was interested in were extremely precious and rare, and it was not easy to find them easily.
With his 1-nanometer-level rune engraving skills, if the refining material did not reach the top-level fourth-grade quality, it would not be able to withstand the existence of hundreds of millions of runes.
Li Shiming now has three life-saving magic weapons. It is impossible to upgrade IBMz15. He has no plan to upgrade IBMz15. IBMz15 has been completely energized and bound to his soul.
Every performance improvement of IBMz15 is due to the improvement of its realm, which causes the strengthening of its soul and thus improves IBMz15.
Just like after he was promoted to the middle stage of Yuanying, his soul and spirit were improved a lot, and the performance of IBMz15 was also improved. Of course, if IBMz15 wants to get the biggest improvement, it still needs his promotion to a higher realm.
The life-saving magic weapon 'Heavenly Thunder Hammer' was successfully upgraded to the spiritual treasure level, leaving only the 'Traceless Fantasy Sword', which is also the most difficult to strengthen.
The 'Traceless Phantom Sword' itself is made of the fourth-grade top-grade material 'Traceless Phantom Gold'. If one wants to use the secret method of 'Sword Intent Soaring into the Sky' to strengthen the 'Traceless Phantom Sword' as one's own flying sword, one must at least obtain another piece of 'Traceless Phantom Gold'.
Using the same quality of 'Untraceable Fantasy Gold' to strengthen the 'Untraceable Fantasy Sword' will not have a real strengthening effect on the 'Untraceable Fantasy Sword', but it can remove the runes on the surface of the 'Untraceable Fantasy Sword' so that they can be re-engraved.
In fact, this is only the job of the natal flying sword, an ordinary magic weapon. It would be better to refine the magic weapon again with the same materials.
Using secret methods to strengthen one's natal flying sword is extremely troublesome, several times more troublesome than refining it from scratch, but it is one's natal flying sword after all, so one can only find ways to strengthen it.
The problem is that 'Traceless Phantom Gold' is a rare material among the top-grade fourth-grade refining materials. Li Shiming is extremely lucky to get one, and the chance of getting a second one is too small.
Li Shiming's best choice is his other two Nascent Souls, the Earth Thunder Nascent Soul and the Water Thunder Nascent Soul. Neither of them has their own natal magic treasures yet. If he can refine the two natal magic treasures, he can greatly increase the cultivation speed of the Earth Thunder Nascent Soul and the Water Thunder Nascent Soul.
Although he thought so, everything still depended on luck. He didn't want to just pick two magic weapons at random. They must be the most suitable for him, especially the earth mine Yuanying and the water mine Yuanying. Only in this way could the maximum auxiliary effect of the magic weapon be brought into play.
After a month, Li Shiming walked out of the cave. He contacted the drone satellite system through his natal magic weapon IBMz15.
Although the drone satellite system is only arranged in a line, the drone satellite can monitor a very wide area, farther than his "Divine Eyes".
This made him feel safe. He put away the concealment formation, carefully used the 'Hidden Phoenix Jade Talisman' to conceal his breath, and used the 'Color-Changing Cloak' to become invisible.
But he didn't know that the moment he emerged from the cave, his guest jade disc flashed.
The flashing of the guest jade disc was an extremely common thing and not worthy of his attention, so he had long been accustomed to it and did not set this kind of thing as information to be noticed by his natal magic weapon IBMz15.
The reason why the guest jade disc was flashing was that it was automatically connected to the communication formation of the Zhongzhou continent.
This is beneficial to the members of Zhongzhou Trading Company, as it allows them to get in touch with Zhongzhou Trading Company at any location on the Zhongzhou Continent that is covered by the communication formation, and check the information on the jade disc at any time.
But this time, the flashing of the guest jade disc was due to another reason. The supervisor who had made a deal with Yuqing Sect had been using the formation to obtain the location of Li Shiming's guest jade disc.
When Li Shiming left the cave and appeared in the outside world, his location was also transmitted back to Zhongzhou Trading Company.
Li Shiming thought that he had restrained his breath and became invisible, so it was safe for him to move around outside. He didn't know that his whereabouts had been exposed.
During this month, in addition to cultivation, he also used the Shenzutong inherited relic again and entered the relic to obtain the more advanced Shenzutong secret method "Instantaneous Arrival".
Although learning 'in one go' has many difficulties, for him who owns an IBM z15, his learning ability is self-evident. As long as he can barely meet the prerequisites for learning, he can learn it.
It is precisely because of the existence of IBM z15 that he is able to combine many magical powers in one.
You have to know that it is extremely difficult for a normal cultivator to master even one magical power, let alone possess so many magical powers like him.
He successfully learned the skill "Reaching the destination in one fell swoop", but the space in the cave was too small, so he could not perform it. Now he wanted to test the results of his practice.
Li Shiming's mind was empty. After two breaths of preparation, he mobilized nearly one tenth of his spiritual power and finally drew out the magical rune of 'Achieve in One Go'.
He was also helpless about the speed of drawing the "Instant" magical rune.
It's not that he didn't want to increase the speed of performing the 'Instantaneous' magical power. With the help of IBMz15, he could draw the 'Instantaneous' magical power runes very quickly. However, in order to mobilize the full strength of the spiritual power in his body, two breaths of time was already a full effort for him.
If his physical body had not reached an unimaginable level of strength, far exceeding the level of a peak physical cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, he would not have been able to mobilize one-tenth of the spiritual power in his body in two breaths without being affected.
It is precisely because of this limitation that it takes at least two breaths for him to display the magical power of "Reaching in One Go". Unless he can improve his realm again, it will be possible to shorten the time it takes to display the magical power of "Reaching in One Go".
But the good news is that, just like 'A World Away', he can completely draw the 'Instantaneous Reach' magical rune in his brain in preparation, and through his powerful control over spiritual power, he can maintain this 'Instantaneous Reach' magical rune for a long time.
In this way, he can definitely display the magical power of "reaching the destination in one fell swoop" instantly when necessary, but this magical power of "reaching the destination in one fell swoop" can only be displayed once, and the possibility of displaying it again is not great.
If he were to call upon one-tenth of his spiritual power four times, the spiritual power in his body would be so low that he would not be able to maintain his combat effectiveness, not to mention that it would take two breaths to exert it, which would have no practical value in actual combat or on the road.
Instead of taking two breaths of time to prepare, he might as well just use "A World Away" to travel, which would be safer.
While thinking, he activated the 'Divine Vision' and focused his vision to a rock three thousand miles away.
He activated the magical power of 'Reaching in One Step', and the magical power rune of 'Reaching in One Step' instantly grew larger and wrapped around his body. Then, through the positioning of his vision, it consumed the spiritual power in the magical power rune and opened a space channel.
His body was protected by the space energy transformed by the "Instantly" magical rune and was sent to the rock through the space channel.
It sounds complicated, but in fact it only takes a moment.
The distance of three thousand miles was crossed in an instant with the magical power of "reaching in an instant".
Feeling one tenth of the spiritual power in his body was gone, and feeling a little uncomfortable due to moving such a long distance for the first time, he thought it was still worth it.
Compared with those life-saving jade talismans that can easily allow one to escape thousands of miles away, three thousand miles seems a bit weak.
But considering that this is a spatial movement of 3,000 miles, there is no faster speed than this in the world of immortal cultivation. Unless it is intercepted before activating the magical power of "reaching in one fell swoop", there is no possibility of intercepting it halfway.
As for the life-saving jade talismans made by those great monks, the consumption of both the jade talisman materials and the monks themselves is extremely huge. The life-saving jade talismans are very precious and are not commonly used.
But it is different from the magical power of "instantaneous achievement". As long as it is prepared in advance, it can be reused continuously, just like a life-saving jade talisman that can be used an unlimited number of times.
