Li Shiming did not expect that just over three months later, Liu Ziyun would deliver the trading items and the spiritual objects he purchased.
All of a sudden he had a lot of things to do. He planned to finish the matter of sacrificing the golden corpse first, and then consider the promotion of Xiaofeng and the Phantom Dragon.
He was using the Myriad Beasts Sect's training methods for the phoenix and dragon clans' spiritual pets to enhance and improve Xiao Feng and Huan Ling Long.
Compared with the Wanshou Sect's comprehensive research on spiritual pets, his training of his own spiritual pet seemed too simple.
It only provided Xiaofeng and Huanlinglong with the necessary resources, but did not carry out any targeted and comprehensive training.
Fortunately, his high status in the Wanshou Sect enabled him to call upon many of the Sect's resources, whether it was the Phoenix clan or the Dragon clan, all of which were open to him for his use.
He decided to wait until Xiao Feng and Huanling Dragon's foundations were further consolidated before using the resources exchanged this time to promote them.
Li Shiming left the Wanshou Sect and found an area outside the Taichu branch.
He used all of his remaining fourth-grade formation flags and the 108 Buddhist beads to build a formation that covered the required area.
The reason why he chose this place was because he was the owner of the core of the Taichu Branch Cave Heaven. This place belonged to the inner space of the isolated cave heaven, and he could monitor at any time whether there were any cultivators approaching.
In addition, he placed Great Monk Luo Pei outside the formation to prevent any other monks from approaching.
Of course, the possibility of cultivators being able to come here is extremely low. Those who have arrived here are cultivators from the Wanshou Sect, and his actions have been reported to the Wanshou Sect.
This kind of thing must be reported. Once the direct sacrifice of the late stage golden corpse is successful, it will cause a huge commotion, and the power of the heavenly calamity alone cannot be hidden.
Li Shiming began to set up the formation, this time it was a corpse refining formation.
He refined the corpse refining materials one by one into the array base. Most of them were upper-grade fourth-grade materials, and there were a small number of top-grade fourth-grade materials.
The fourth-grade top-level materials will be refined into array bases in important positions, and the remaining fourth-grade upper-level materials will be refined into the remaining array bases.
The cost of refining the late-stage golden corpse can be seen from here. You must know that the refined fourth-grade top-level array bases and the larger number of fourth-grade upper-level array bases can only be used once and are disposable consumables.
He himself had a very solid knowledge of formations, and with the help of his life-saving magic weapon IBMz15, he arranged the corpse refining formation into one that could refine five late-stage golden corpses at a time.
Otherwise, even he would not be able to bear such a huge consumption.
This batch of corpse refining materials was the accumulation of his clone Li Yuanba's long-term alchemy efforts, as well as the reward for blessing and healing monks in the Hell Cave Heaven.
If you want to get another batch of corpse refining materials of this quantity and quality, it will not be completed in a short time even if you place an order from Zhongzhou Trading Company.
All the superpowers are gathered in the Hell Cave, and what Li Yuanba obtained were the corpse refining resources in stock from various superpowers.
The corpse refining formation had been refined for several years without any problems.
He did not activate the corpse refining formation. There was still one most critical operation, which was to draw corpse refining runes on the corpses of the five great monks.
He put the corpse of a great monk into the computer room. Previously, his control accuracy in the computer room was 0.1 nanometers. After his promotion, he had not performed too fine control and had not tried the limit of his control over the computer room space.
Under normal circumstances, an accuracy of 0.1 nanometers is sufficient.
But this time, he decided to try for the highest precision.
The bodies of the great monks that he stored in the computer room, including the other four bodies, were all carefully selected by him and were bodies of great monks from super powers.
It was because he and Li Yuanba made enemies everywhere in the Central Plains and caused countless major incidents that there were so many corpses of great monks from super powers.
In normal times, there might not be so many great monks from super powers who died abnormally in a thousand years.
The super powers each occupy a sphere of influence. Even if they fight each other, they will try their best to control the level of the battle and minimize the chances of the battle escalating to the level of great monks.
In addition, the great monks of the super forces have extremely strong combat power and hold powerful life-saving jade talismans in their hands. It is too difficult to kill the great monks of the super forces.
In the computer room, Li Shiming's consciousness enveloped the great monk's body. Although the physical strength of the great monk's body could not be compared with his physical strength, it was still many times stronger than the physical strength of a middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
He had tried it before, and he could draw nine million corpse-refining runes with a precision of one nanometer on a corpse in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
He estimated that the number of corpses of great monks was more than ten times that of corpses in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. The specific details needed actual drawing to get accurate results.
He took out the most expensive spiritual object he bought from Zhongzhou Trading Company, which was the blood of a late-stage golden corpse, a golden viscous blood.
In other words, the original conflict between him and Zhongzhou Trading Company was resolved, his combat effectiveness was recognized by Zhongzhou Trading Company, and he was of use value, so Zhongzhou Trading Company took some effort to obtain the blood of these late-stage golden corpses.
It is recorded in the "Xuanyin Yaksha Forbidden Codex" that using the blood of a corpse of the same level as the golden corpse required for sacrifice can greatly increase the success rate of the corpse sacrifice.
In the past, it was very easy to refine corpse blood, no matter whether it was an early or middle stage golden corpse. There were still many of these two levels of golden corpses in the world of immortal cultivation.
But when it comes to the late stage golden corpse, only great monks can cultivate it, and the number of great monks who are really willing to devote resources to cultivate the late stage golden corpse is extremely small.
The main reason is that the failure rate of the golden corpse in the later stage is too high and the waste is too great. If it were not for the accumulation of a large number of refined corpses earlier and the heavy reliance on the combat power of refined corpses, it would be impossible to use precious resources on the golden corpse in the later stage.
Li Shiming didn't know where Zhongzhou Trading Company got the blood of the late-stage golden corpses. He thought that Zhongzhou Trading Company must have its own channels.
Anyway, with the blood of the late-stage golden corpses, the difficulty of refining the late-stage golden corpses was reduced a lot, and it was worth spending a little more.
In fact, the resources for corpse refining are secondary. If he fails this time, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to get five corpses of great monks from super powers in a short period of time.
The great monks of super powers are not cabbages, and the corpses of the great monks of super powers that he chose are all the best among them. If he fails, the loss will be immeasurable.
The golden blood of the late golden corpse is mixed with some materials, and finally Li Shiming's own blood essence is added.
As his mind moved slightly, a fourth-grade sword base appeared in his hand, and he gently swept the blade across his fingers.
Something embarrassing happened to him. There was a friction sound between the fourth-grade sword base and his fingers, but no wound appeared.
The strength of his body is comparable to that of a great body cultivator. What kind of body is this? It can probably be compared to the toughness of a top-grade fourth-grade magic weapon.
The fourth-grade sword base is about this quality, but it is still a little short of breaking through one's own defense.
There was no other way, so he blessed the fourth-grade sword base with the "Chaos Sword Intention". This time he was very careful when cutting his fingers.
He was worried that if he used too much force, the 'Chaos Sword Intent' would cut off a piece of his finger.
Finally, with the help of the 'Chaos Sword Intention', the fourth-grade sword master cut a wound on his finger.
He forced some blood and essence out of the wound. Just after he had forced out half of the required amount of blood and essence, the wound healed on its own without him having to treat it.
There was no other way, so he once again used the fourth-grade sword foundation to bless his own fingers with the 'Chaos Sword Intention'. It took him four consecutive times to collect all the blood essence he needed.
After this attempt, he finally understood the strength of his own body.
He had heard before that when the body becomes strong enough, injuries will heal at an extremely fast speed.
But this was cut by the 'Chaos Sword Intent'. In order to make the 'Chaos Sword Intent' effective on himself, he set this part of the 'Chaos Sword Intent' to be effective against any target.
Even though his wound was small, just a small cut, there was a 'Chaos Sword Intent' at the wound that was hindering the recovery of the wound.
He did not deliberately clear the 'Chaos Sword Intent'. The 'Chaos Sword Intent' on the wound was completely cleared and restored by the powerful self-healing ability of his body.
This recovery ability, combined with the use of the 'Xiantian Yimu' magical power, enables him to continuously recover from his injuries as long as he is not killed instantly.
Although he did not obtain such rare treasures as the 'Innate Jianmu Tree Heart' like his clone Li Yuanba, his realm was that of a great cultivator, and the 'Innate Yi Wood' magical power he displayed was not much worse than that of Li Yuanba.
Li Shiming put the mixed corpse refining ink into the computer room. His consciousness scanned the whole body of the great monk's corpse. IBMz15 built a model and analyzed various data of the great monk's corpse.
If the corpses of great monks were calculated according to the quality of the world of immortal cultivation, they could probably be considered as materials of the upper fourth grade. The corpses of great monks he chose were the five best ones among them, and their quality still did not exceed the upper fourth grade.
IBMz15 analyzed the data and proposed a solution that was somewhat unexpected to him.
Normal corpse refining is to draw corpse refining runes on the surface of the corpse, but after analysis by IBMz15, it was found that the bones of the corpse are the strongest carrier that can withstand the corpse refining runes.
Li Shiming started his first attempt without much thought.
In the computer room, his consciousness could penetrate everything and reach deep into the body of the great monk. After his verification, the quality of the great monk's bones was only one step away from being the top-level fourth-grade quality.
This is normal. You know, many demon cultivators use the corpses of other cultivators to refine magic weapons.
In addition, the defensive power of the refined corpse can also reflect the quality of the cultivator's body. Without the corresponding quality, even if a large amount of materials are added during refining, it is impossible to achieve a strong defensive power.
According to IBMz15's plan, Li Shiming began to draw corpse-refining runes on the great monk's skin.
He used a precision of 0.1 nanometers and drew 100 million corpse-refining runes on the skin of the great monk while maintaining the energy balance of the body.
This was not the end. He used the 'Invisible Fantasy Sword' to pierce the great monk's body, creating a gap. He used his spiritual sense to send the corpse refining ink to the bones, and then drew corpse refining runes on the bones.
This time he tried to use the highest precision, and he found that his control over the computer room space had reached 0.05 nanometers. He also felt that although his spirit had been greatly improved, as his control over the computer room space became more and more refined, the increase in his control became smaller.
In the following period of time, he mobilized one hundred and eighty brains. Except for a few spare brains, most of the brains were involved in the work of drawing runes.
Each of the 206 bones in the great monk's body is painted with corpse-refining runes.
This work seems simple, but it is actually very difficult. Even if there are cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation who can draw runes at the micron level, they cannot perform the same operation as him.
Because in addition to the most difficult drawing, there is also the even more difficult energy balance.
The body of the great monk is a whole. During the process of drawing the corpse-refining runes, it is necessary to always maintain the energy balance of the corpse-refining runes on the body of the great monk.
Otherwise, during the corpse refining process, the unbalanced energy structure would cause the great monk's body to explode directly.
This theory is also applied to refining equipment and elixirs. Energy balance is the guarantee of all success.
Just think about it, hundreds of millions of corpse-refining runes have to be drawn on the body of the great monk, and also hundreds of millions of corpse-refining runes have to be kept in absolute balance on the body of the great monk. This amount of calculation is so huge that it would be completely impossible to do it with manpower alone without the assistance of IBMz15.
A total of 400 million corpse-refining runes were drawn on this great monk's body, and his bones bore 300 million corpse-refining runes.
Four hundred million corpse-refining runes have reached the limit of this great monk's body. If there is any more, it will be meaningless, and if there is any more, this great monk's body will collapse.
The same operation was performed on the bodies of the four great monks that followed.
He took out five golden corpse cores from the Tianren Cave Heaven and put them into the bodies of five great monks.
Ever since he gained control of the Tianren Cave Heaven, he could dig out the golden corpse cores from the golden corpses in the cave heaven at any time if he wanted them. Anyway, these golden corpses would be automatically produced when there were fewer of them, so there was no need to worry about a decrease in number.
After all the preparations were done, Li Shiming placed the bodies of the five great monks in the corpse refining formation.
He took a long breath to relieve his tension. Success or failure would depend on the subsequent process. If he failed, he would probably not try to refine corpses again within a hundred years.
He took out a large pile of spirit stones and three meridian-locking plates. Each meridian-locking plate contained a spirit vein of great monk's quality, which provided energy for the corpse refining formation.
Due to the limited conditions in the Dongqi Continent, it is impossible for him to place the refined corpse in the cave. The rules of heaven and earth in the cave are somewhat different, which will affect the quality of the refined corpse after it is formed, and may even cause huge defects.
Besides, even if one successfully cultivates a late-stage golden corpse in the cave, one will still need to endure the thunder tribulation once out of the cave. The late-stage golden corpse with defects will have a lower ability to withstand the thunder.
This has been specifically stated in the 'Xuanyin Yaksha Forbidden Canon'. Previous generations have conducted research in this area and it is not recommended to refine corpses in a cave.
