The Great Venerable had no other options. The 'Nirvana Fire' of the Scarlet-Gold Phoenix would destroy the magic weapon if one was not careful.
The Phantom Dragon gave him even more headaches. No matter whether he was using a magic weapon to attack or defend, the Phantom Dragon's poison could severely damage the magic weapon.
He didn't have many magic weapons in his hand. His innate magic weapon, the golden bell, which was a top-grade fourth-grade one, had been damaged, and he had no extra magic weapons to use.
The only way to deal with it is this almost cheating method. This string of Buddhist beads is an inheritance from the Lotus Temple. When it is scattered, it will automatically form a formation.
While attacking Xiao Feng, the Great Venerable was also searching for the Phantom Dragon. However, no matter how he scanned with his spiritual sense, he could not find the location of the Phantom Dragon.
The Phantom Dragon is now outside the range of the Great Venerable's spiritual sense. It is impossible for the Great Venerable to maintain such a spiritual sense scan. Once an opportunity arises, the Phantom Dragon will approach the Great Venerable again.
Li Shiming waited for a moment and realized that this was not a solution.
If we wait any longer, this great venerable will probably summon more great monks.
He put away the 'Baidi Qingyun Boat' and flew closer to the battlefield with Master Luo Pei.
Sensing that a great monk was approaching, the Great Venerable immediately looked at Li Shiming with vigilance.
He did not recognize Li Shiming's identity, and a look of vigilance flashed in his eyes.
"I am Guangling from the Lotus Temple and greet the donor. May I know who the donor is?" Great Master Guangling asked Li Shiming while clasping his hands together.
"Li Shizhen from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect greets the Great Venerable Guangling!" Li Shiming smiled faintly and returned the greeting.
"Li Shizhen?" Great Venerable Fang Ling immediately thought of who Li Shizhen was, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
At this time, Li Shiming had seen the formation formed by the 108 Buddhist beads through his "Divine Eyes", and analyzed the nodes of the formation using IBMz15.
"This is the mountain gate of my Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. According to the rules, a great master of your level is not allowed to come here without reason!" Li Shiming said in a deep voice.
The area near the mountain gate is under the sect's surveillance. If you get any closer, you will enter the isolated space of the cave. For any sect, this area is a prohibited area.
Unless you have received an invitation from the sect, approaching without reason would be tantamount to becoming an enemy of the sect.
"Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, in a few days, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect will no longer exist!" Great Master Guangling said with a sneer.
When Li Shiming heard him say this, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
His figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the "instant arrival" allowed him to break through the distance limit of the great monk's attack range, and teleported to the side of the great monk Fang Ling, far outside the great monk's attack range.
After IBMz15 thoroughly studied the formation formed by the 108 Buddhist beads, it no longer had any effect on him.
When he was teleported to the side of Great Venerable Guangling, he had a fourth-grade sword base in his hand.
He used the spine of the fourth-grade sword to strike Great Venerable Guangling. As his defense had been broken by the poison of the Phantom Dragon before, even if Great Venerable Guangling put up a defensive shield, it could not block his blow.
The reason why he did not use the sword was that he wanted to get some information from Great Venerable Guangling.
He also didn't know what the situation was between the Wanshou Sect and the other three sects. If he really killed Great Venerable Guangling, it would be equivalent to completely breaking off with the Lianhua Temple.
It would be better to hand over Great Venerable Guangling to the Wanshou Sect and let the Wanshou Sect deal with him.
This slap contained the 'Chaos Sword Intent'. Although there was no wound for the 'Chaos Sword Intent' to enter directly into the body of Great Venerable Guangling, some of the 'Chaos Sword Intent' was still sent into the body of Great Venerable Guangling after the slap.
Great Venerable Guangling was hit by this slap, and his body stiffened, losing the strength to resist.
Li Shiming smiled faintly and hit the body of Great Venerable Guangling twice more.
In an instant, the physical body of Great Venerable Guangling was restrained, and a lightning rune locked the surface of his Nascent Soul, so that not a trace of spiritual power could be summoned.
Li Shiming roughly took off the mustard seed ring of Great Venerable Guangling, and swept his spiritual sense over the 108 Buddhist beads. Without the support of Great Venerable Guangling, the Buddhist beads immediately returned to their original state after being swept by his spiritual sense.
"This is a nice treasure!" Li Shiming became interested in this string of Buddhist beads.
This string of Buddhist beads should have been nurtured by many great Buddhist masters through Buddhist teachings for a long time. In addition, Buddhist beads are a rare treasure in themselves. After more than five thousand years of Buddhist teachings, the beads can almost be called a Buddhist treasure.
In particular, each generation of great masters who nurtured the Buddhist beads cultivated them as the basis for setting up formations. This allowed the Buddhist beads to develop a special spiritual wisdom that allowed them to set up formations on their own.
Although the material of the Buddhist beads is not the best, only the upper fourth grade, but after five thousand years of nurturing by Buddhism, the shortcomings of the material have been completely compensated.
Great Venerable Guangling watched Li Shiming taking away the spoils from him, especially this string of Buddhist beads, which was the treasure of the Lotus Temple. The anger in his eyes almost burst out.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he hated Li Shiming, he was helpless under Li Shiming's suppression.
Li Shiming casually threw the Great Venerable Guangling to the Great Monk Luo Pei, and took out the jade disc of his identity in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Master, I'm back and I'm just outside the mountain gate!" He sent a message to his master, Master Hu.
He knew very well that this place must be under the surveillance range of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect's formation, and he did not need to get close to the sect's mountain gate to avoid any accidents.
"Are you my junior brother?" A figure flew over from the direction of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. When he approached Li Shiming, he asked with some disbelief.
The person who came was the second senior brother Yue Shan. He was very familiar with Li Shiming, so how could he not recognize Li Shiming.
However, when he saw that Li Shiming had reached the level of a great monk, he was afraid to recognize him for a moment.
"Second brother, I've only been away for a few years, why don't you recognize me?" Li Shiming said with a smile.
"Junior brother, it's really you. It hasn't been long since you were promoted to a great monk!" Yue Shan woke up from his shock and shouted excitedly. After a moment, he calmed down, turned his head to look at the great monk Luo Pei, bowed and asked: "Who is this senior?"
"Second brother, there's no need to be so polite to him. He is my subordinate, and his name is Luo Pei!" Li Shiming introduced with a smile.
After such an introduction, Yue Shan was even more confused about how to react.
The status of the great monk in the Dongqi Continent is like that of the powerful people in the Zhongzhou Continent, they are the top existences.
But Yue Shan never imagined that Li Shiming actually had a great monk under him. Looking at the obedient look of Great Monk Luo Pei, standing behind Li Shiming with his hands behind his back, it seemed that he was really Li Shiming's subordinate.
"Is that the Great Venerable Guangling?" Yue Shan saw clearly the cultivator who was caught by the great monk Luo Pei and recognized his identity.
"I saw Great Venerable Guangling appear near the Wanshou Sect, so I captured him and handed him over to the sect for disposal!" Li Shiming explained.
"I'll take you back to the sect first!" Yue Shan took several deep breaths before he calmed down. He looked around and said.
He also discovered that the Nascent Soul cultivators who were originally wandering around the sect had long disappeared.
It seems that this is the deterrence brought by Li Shiming, which made him feel much better after being depressed for a long time.
This time, Li Shiming returned as a great monk, and he brought back another great monk, which greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the Wanshou Sect.
When Li Shiming entered the thousand-mile radius of the sect and felt the familiar breath of space, he closed his eyes with nostalgia, wanting to engrave this feeling in his soul.
Since it was not far from the mountain gate, he did not chat with Yue Shan. Anyway, he would meet his master, Master Hu, soon and would naturally know what he needed to know.
Yue Shan stopped in front of the sect’s formation.
“Junior brother, please wait here for a moment. I need to go and report and give Senior Luo Pei an identity to enter the sect!” Yue Shan asked Li Shiming to wait here while he entered the sect’s formation.
Li Shiming was not surprised. Yue Shan had the power to bring Master Luo Pei here, which was already the limit of Yue Shan's power.
In addition, although Li Shiming was promoted to a great monk, his identity jade disc has not been updated yet. In the event of an emergency in the sect, they still have to be informed before deciding whether to let him in.
Not long after, Yue Shan and Master Ding Lifei came out together.
Li Shiming was slightly stunned. He did not expect that it was Master Ding Lifei who came out instead of his master Master Hu.
This made him feel a little nervous. Could something have happened to his master, Master Hu?
Thinking about how he had successfully contacted his master using the identity jade disc before, he couldn't help but shook his head, thinking that he was probably just imagining things.
"Li Shizhen greets Uncle Ding!" Li Shiming stepped forward and bowed.
"We heard that something happened to you in Zhongzhou Continent. Your master and I were very worried about you. It seems that not only did nothing happen to you, but you encountered an opportunity and became a great monk!" Great Monk Ding Lifei said to Li Shiming with a smile.
He helped Li Shiming up and looked at him carefully, unable to conceal the amazement in his eyes.
"By the way, you are already a great monk, so just call me Brother Ding from now on!" He said as he thought of something else.
In the world of immortal cultivation, unless it is a master-disciple relationship, realm is the basis for determining a cultivator's status.
"Senior Brother Ding, this is Luo Pei, my subordinate!" Li Shiming changed his address and introduced the great monk Luo Pei.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, welcome!" Great Monk Ding glanced at Great Monk Luo Pei, smiled and bowed.
Great Monk Luo Pei, the great monk who almost destroyed an entire sect single-handedly. Although monks like Yue Shan did not know much about him, Great Monk Ding knew about Great Monk Luo Pei's battle record from some channels.
Although the aura of Master Luo Pei was not very strong, Master Ding did not dare to underestimate Master Luo Pei at all.
Master Luo Pei returned the salute without saying anything. After saluting, he stood behind Li Shiming again. This attitude revealed his identity.
"Brother Ding, this is Great Venerable Guangling. I met him outside the mountain gate when I returned to the sect, so I captured him and handed him over to the sect for disposal!" Li Shiming waved to Great Monk Luo Pei, who brought Great Venerable Guangling to Great Monk Ding.
"The Wanshou Sect is currently in a life-and-death situation. It's great that you're back. Capturing Great Venerable Guangling will prevent the Lianhua Temple from acting too recklessly!" Great Monk Ding said as he took Great Venerable Guangling.
Being able to capture Great Venerable Guangling alive shows that Li Shiming’s combat power is extremely strong.
The Wanshou Sect is in need of manpower right now, which is good news. At the same time, the Lotus Temple is missing the Great Venerable Guangling, which weakens its strength. The Lotus Temple also needs to consider the life of the Great Venerable Guangling, and will no longer act as recklessly as before.
Master Ding first updated the identity jade disc for Li Shiming, and then took out an identity jade disc and gave it to Master Luo Pei.
"Brother Luo, you will first be a guest official of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. Your treatment will be decided after I discuss it with my fellow disciples!" Great Monk Ding did not take Great Monk Luo Pei lightly just because he was Li Shiming's subordinate. He even explained his identity when giving him the jade disc.
Then, under his leadership, Li Shiming and Great Monk Luo Pei walked into the mountain gate of the Wanshou Sect.
As soon as he entered the mountain gate, Li Shiming felt the tense atmosphere.
The most obvious thing is that there are cultivators on duty at various nodes of the sect's formation, which has never happened before.
Every monk flying in the sky was in a hurry, with extremely serious expressions on their faces.
Master Ding knew who Li Shiming wanted to see the most. He took Li Shiming into the Cave of Ten Thousand Beasts and came to the outside of the mountain where Master Hu was.
The formation on the mountain was activated, and Master Ding entered first, followed by Li Shiming and the others.
Li Shiming had already discovered something was wrong at this time. Given the character of his master, Master Hu, he would definitely come out to greet him after knowing that he had been promoted to a master and brought back a master's subordinate.
He was very surprised that the great monk Ding came out of the sect to greet him before, but now even the cave dwellers didn't come out to greet him. Something must have gone wrong.
"Shizhen is back?" The cave was open and a weak voice came from inside.
"Master!" Li Shiming exclaimed.
With Master Hu's level, it is impossible for him to be so weak. It can only mean that Master Hu is injured, and the injury is very serious.
Li Shiming quickened his pace and entered the cave, where he saw his master, Master Hu, sitting on a chair.
Monk Hu's face was pale, his breathing was unstable, and more importantly, his left leg was missing.
"Master, who hurt you?" Li Shiming's aura burst out, and a terrifying pressure rose.
When Master Hu saw Li Shiming's appearance and felt the strength he displayed, a gratified smile appeared on his face.
Just like watching his own child grow up, he knew that Li Shiming had grown up.
"I'm fine. You should ask the guy from Taichu Sect who fought with me!" Master Hu said with a smile and waved his hand.
But after he said this, he started coughing continuously, which made his words less powerful.
"Master, don't talk for now, I will treat you!" Li Shiming stepped forward and supported Master Hu.
He took out a fourth-grade advanced limb regeneration pill for great monks, which he made using the extra spiritual medicine he had when he was refining for an injured great monk in Zhongzhou Continent.
Although he possesses the magical power of 'Innate Yi Wood', to regenerate severed limbs, he still needs to rely on the effect of this elixir.
