On the sealed Nascent Soul is a sealing rune formed by the power of rules. Perhaps the Half-Step Great Power has extremely strong control over the power of rules, or perhaps the Half-Step Great Power does not want to waste too much power of rules, and the power of rules that seals the Nascent Soul is just enough to seal it.
These rules cannot be broken from the inside without external help, but the rules that make up the seal are limited. Li Shiming came to a conclusion through observation that it would only take a few days for him to break the seal with the power of the other four Nascent Souls.
He thought about that finger at that time, and thought of that indescribable power. It was a feeling of an ant facing a dragon. He rarely had this feeling after he was promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.
Li Shiming's method of breaking the power of rules that constitute the sealing rune is very simple, that is to continuously flush the sealing rune through the 'Five Elements Air Gathering Array'.
He was working on breaking the sealing runes in his body and his gaze fell on the jade compass again.
He believed that the half-step great master must be aware of the situation in the outside world. He was not communicating with him at the moment, as if he thought he had no way to deal with him, or was waiting for him to get close so as to subdue him again.
He smiled, and at this time his life-saving magic weapon IBMz15 had already designed a set of formations.
He took out the Buddhist beads and broke them up into 108 separate beads. With a wave of his hand, the 108 beads flew out and landed around the jade compass.
The Buddhist beads did not fall to the ground, but were all suspended one meter above the ground. The Buddhist beads emitted golden light, and a special space formation was activated.
Li Shiming did this on purpose, as he was also worried that the half-step great power would destroy the Buddhist beads when he was setting up the formation.
Therefore, he was extremely decisive in setting up the formation, and activated the formation without waiting for the Buddhist beads to fall to the ground, in order to catch the half-step great master off guard.
The formation of the formation slightly relieved the pressure in his heart. After all, he was facing a half-step great power. Even if this half-step great power had some limitations, he still needed to be extra careful to prevent the counterattack of this half-step great power.
The formation was successfully arranged, but this was not the end. Li Shiming flicked his fingers and a series of magic spells flew out and fell into the formation.
Those Buddhist beads began to shrink. There was no feeling at first, but when they shrank to a certain extent, the space surrounding the jade compass began to feel solidified.
The space solidified, making the space outside the cave no longer an ordinary space, but a solidified space compressed by the formation.
The formation designed by IBMz15 was originally a space formation for blocking the entrance and exit of the cave, but the effect was enhanced on this basis.
Li Shiming has a deep understanding of cave heavens. He himself has two cave heavens. If the Taichu Cave Heaven of the Taichu branch sect is added, he has three cave heavens.
Bansheng Cave and Tianren Cave are his private caves. IBMz15 had started researching the caves a long time ago and knew how they were connected to the outside world.
In particular, the Half-Life Cave Heaven should be very similar to the Cave Heaven of the Half-Step Great Power in front of him. The space formation that can block the Half-Life Cave Heaven is equivalent to being able to block the Cave Heaven in front of him.
He continued to chant spells, the formation continued to compress, and the solidification of space became stronger and stronger.
He stopped only when the 108 Buddhist beads formed a formation only the size of a palm.
At this time, Li Shiming still did not go over by himself. He summoned a late-stage golden corpse beside him, took out a talisman pen and a bottle of talisman ink from the soul crystal ring and handed them to the late-stage golden corpse.
Just as the late golden corpse took over the talisman pen and ink, one of Li Shiming's brains took over the body of the late golden corpse.
It has to be said that the body of a late-stage golden corpse is not much different from that of a normal great monk. Its flexibility and extensibility are extremely similar, and it does not have the stiffness of an ordinary corpse.
In addition to the cold and yin energy in his body that made him somewhat uncomfortable, the corpse core also replaced his Nascent Soul.
However, he had the experience of his clone Li Yuanba using form-changing methods. Li Yuanba was able to transform into a corpse-refining state, and that state was extremely similar to the current state.
Especially the ability to call upon Yin and cold energy. Li Yuanba can enhance the Yin and cold power by practicing corpse refining techniques. Although he rarely does this, the experience gained is very helpful for Li Shiming to regain the Yin and cold power at this time.
In the later period, the golden corpse was walking while the cold energy was flowing on the talisman pen in his hand. At first, the cold energy was sometimes large and sometimes small, but when it came to the front of the jade compass, the cold energy had stabilized.
In the later period, the golden corpse lowered its body. The flesh of this body was extremely strong. When it lowered its body in this posture, it could still keep its arms extremely stable.
Without any waiting, the space sealing rune that had been thought of long ago was written on the jade compass with the rune pen.
The half-step great man obviously knew what Li Shiming wanted to do. He wanted to resist in the cave, but the cave was suppressed by the space formation composed of one hundred and eight Buddhist beads.
This meant that even someone as powerful as he was could no longer influence the outside world from within the cave, let alone launch an attack.
Finally, this half-step great man stopped being silent and wanted to communicate with Li Shiming.
"Li Shizhen, don't force me to fight. I will use my three thousand years of cultivation to kill you!" His voice was not as loud as he imagined.
Although his voice was as loud as a huge bell in his cave, due to the effect of the space sealing formation, his voice was as small as a mosquito or fly when it passed through the cave.
If you don't pay attention, you won't be able to hear what he says.
Of course, it was precisely because of this that his originally threatening words became less convincing.
"You have cultivated for three thousand years and you are here to deal with me. I am not even a hundred and fifty years old!" Li Shiming replied with a cold smile.
His words hurt the Half-Step Great Master greatly. Thinking that he was being restrained by a cultivator who was less than 150 years old, he decided to take the initiative to attack the other party first.
"What conditions do you have to let me go? Whether it's magic weapons, materials, or cultivation resources, my collection is enough to meet your requirements!" The half-step great man gave up the threat and turned to bribery.
"Do you have a treasure of the same level as the 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl'? Do you have a spiritual treasure?" Li Shiming asked repeatedly.
When the Half-Step Great One heard Li Shiming's words, he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Indeed, as the top existence in Yuqing Sect, the collection of Half-Step Great Power in his lifetime is extremely rich.
However, due to his realm, there are still some treasures that are beyond the reach of his level.
What is the 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl'? It is a unique treasure exclusively owned by the powerful, which can increase the power of the powerful's thunder attacks.
Even among the powerful, exclusive treasures such as the 'Shenxiao Thunder Pearl' are extremely rare.
Although almost every powerful person has a spiritual treasure, the number of powerful people who can possess a second spiritual treasure is also extremely rare. Without reaching the realm of a truly powerful person, there is no chance to come into contact with a spiritual treasure.
The Half-Step Great One wanted to speak again, but found that his voice could no longer be heard.
It turned out that when Li Shiming was talking to the Half-Step Great Power, he did not stop drawing the runes of the late golden corpse.
The material of the jade compass is top-grade four. The material itself can make the runes produce the strongest effect and stabilize the runes on it.
The effect of this rune is more direct and convenient. It is unlike the formation composed of 108 Buddhist beads, which requires constant adjustment once moved, making it extremely troublesome to move.
This is because Li Shiming's formation ability is strong enough. Ordinary great monks simply cannot move the formation arranged by 108 Buddhist beads without causing problems.
The last stroke was completed, completely sealing the spatial connection between the jade compass and the outside world.
Li Shiming finally felt relieved. The half-step great master was still reluctant to give up his three thousand years of cultivation. If he had forced his move when he was setting up the formation or drawing the runes, there might have been a glimmer of hope.
But considering that this would destroy three thousand years of cultivation in an instant, it was not an easy decision to make.
By the time the Half-Step Great One made up his mind, the opportunity was gone, and he could not find any chance even if he tried his best.
Li Shiming came to the jade compass and casually put away the 108 Buddhist beads. At this time, he no longer needed the suppression of the formation.
The space-sealing runes he drew, combined with the material of the jade compass itself, are enough to surpass the effect of the formation set up by the Buddhist beads many times over.
There was a mark of recognition inside the jade compass. He could sense from the mark that it was the spiritual mark of the great monk Wang He.
He did not move the mark of recognition of the master, and started to check what he wanted to find. Soon, he saw a round ball in the center of the jade compass, just like a pearl inlaid in the center of the jade compass.
If he had not studied the cave, he might have ignored it and mistaken it for a real pearl.
This is exactly one of the manifestations of the cave heaven in the outside world. The reason why it is called one of them is that the manifestation of the cave heaven in the outside world is set by the owner of the cave heaven. It can be quantified or materialized, and can even be attached to a certain living body.
Li Shiming showed a faint smile on his face. He had plenty of time to deal with this Half-Step Great Power who had caused him great trouble and almost cost him his life.
Perhaps he could not withstand a finger of the Half-Step Great Power, but the Half-Step Great Power was sealed in the cave, and the positions of both parties were switched. He could only attack the other party, but the other party could do nothing to him.
This sealing rune is a one-way seal. The outside world can peek into the interior of the cave and even send energy into the cave, but the half-step powerful people in the cave cannot break the space seal.
Of course, Li Shiming couldn't implement his plan here. He needed a stronger seal to prevent the Half-Step Great Power from having any chance.
He put away the jade compass and asked the two late-stage golden corpses to lift up the two peak great monks.
At this moment, the two top monks, especially Monk Wang He, felt extremely regretful.
This time, Yuqing Sect not only lost him, a peak thunder cultivator, but also trapped a half-step great master.
He and the great monk Yan Gao had their bodies and Nascent Souls sealed, but their perceptions were not sealed. They all saw the process of Li Shiming sealing the cave heaven of the half-step great master.
A feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart. That was a half-step great power. Li Shiming actually found the biggest weakness of the half-step great power in a short time, and used this weakness to seal the cave of the half-step great power.
Before, they still held on to a glimmer of hope. As long as the Half-Step Great Power was still there and Li Shiming could do nothing to him, they would have hope of being rescued.
Even in their opinion, Li Shiming spared their lives because he was a half-step great power.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, I need a batch of fourth-grade formation materials. Here is the material list!" Li Shiming sent a message to Master Liu Ziyun of Zhongzhou Trading Company through the communication card.
"Fellow Daoist Li, the materials for the formation are in the warehouse. Where should they be sent?" Great Monk Liu Ziyun replied almost instantly.
Li Shiming looked at his location and sent the location information to Great Monk Liu Ziyun.
This place is far away from the monks and is a good place. He plans to deal with the half-step great power here.
He didn't dare to bring the jade compass back to the sect to deal with it. What if the half-step great power left a desperate means? He had the ability to "reach in one fell swoop" and move eight thousand miles at a time to save his life. The sect could not withstand the desperate means of the half-step great power.
As for why they didn't seek support for formation materials from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, but instead purchased them from the Zhongzhou Trading Company.
The Wanshou Sect does have a lot of formation materials, but due to the recent expansion of its territory, especially the reconstruction of the Taichu branch, the Wanshou Sect does not have enough formation materials for its own use. All the formation materials in stock are useful.
At Zhongzhou Trading Company, Li Shiming does not have to pay immediately. All the spiritual objects he purchased can be settled in the form of rewards when he refines spiritual pills in the future.
Even though fourth-grade formation materials are considered precious materials in the world of immortal cultivation, at the level of a great cultivator, this level of material is really nothing. If he refines an elixir for a great cultivator, he can pay off the money he spent on the fourth-grade formation materials this time and have some left over.
Great Monk Liu Ziyun was very fast and arrived in just two hours.
With his experience, he could feel the fighting spirit of the great monk when he approached here.
He was stunned. If his perception was correct, there were great masters fighting here.
Then he saw Li Shiming, who looked a little disheveled and his robe was tattered.
The fourth-grade top-quality robe was torn into a patchwork quilt, which made the great monk Liu Ziyun feel heartbroken when he saw it. Such a precious top-level magic weapon was ruined like this.
But he immediately thought of another thing: what kind of destructive power would be needed to destroy a top-level fourth-grade magic weapon like this?
Li Shiming didn't care about the robe on his body. After the battle, he was still thinking about the previous battle, especially recalling the power of the finger of the half-step great man.
He always felt that there was a big secret hidden in the charm of that finger.
Although the robe on his body is precious, he has many such top-grade fourth-grade robes. In the battles with his clone Li Yuanba over the years, he has obtained a lot of trophies, including quite a few top-grade fourth-grade robes.
Because he didn't care about the damage to the robe, his mind was absorbed in thinking about the course of the battle and he didn't notice the problem with the robe.
