The phantom clone stood where he was and did not chase after the great ice-type monk who had used water escape to escape.
A great monk of this strength is definitely not an unknown person, and it is not difficult to find out his identity.
Besides, with the strength of his phantom clone and the weakness of the late-stage golden corpse, he would not be able to catch up with the peak ice-type monk.
With the departure of the great ice-type monk, Moon-Watching Peak returned to peace.
When he was fighting, he deliberately avoided accidentally hurting other cultivators, especially the female cultivators from the Luanfeng Palace.
He recalled four late-stage golden corpses and gathered all the six corpses of great monks together.
The matters here require the Luanfeng Palace to send monks to handle them. After all, this is the Luanfeng Palace's sphere of influence. For Yin Shilan's sake, he also needs to give the Luanfeng Palace corresponding face.
As his mind moved slightly, the golden-winged Roc flew down from the sky to his side.
When Yin Shilan saw the unobstructed phantom clone, her worries were put to rest. Although it was only a phantom clone and not Li Shiming's real body, the clone contained a part of the real body's soul. If something really happened to the phantom clone, the real body would also suffer spiritual damage.
In the world of immortal cultivation, no matter if the physical body or the Nascent Soul is injured, as long as there is an effective elixir, the injuries of the physical body and the Nascent Soul can be repaired, but the injuries to the soul are extremely difficult to recover.
"Senior Sister Yu!" Yin Shilan saw Senior Sister Yu who was in a daze, so she stepped forward and whispered.
"I'm fine, thank you!" Senior Sister Yu forced a smile, her eyes fixed on the body of Great Monk Mu Zhang, as she replied.
The rest of the female practitioners from Luanfeng Palace came over and began to comfort Senior Sister Yu.
The phantom clone had no intention of getting involved. He just stood there, carefully guarding his surroundings.
Fortunately, this time they brought the Golden-Winged Roc and four late-stage golden corpses. Without the Golden-Winged Roc, Yin Shilan would have been controlled by the opponent, and he would have been very passive.
"I really underestimated the cultivators in this world!" Li Shiming thought to himself.
He had always been on guard against powerful beings, but he had not expected that a top monk with six other monks would almost trap him.
The Luanfeng Palace responded quickly, with the Palace Master Feng personally leading a team of female monks to rush over.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I didn't expect that there would be a cultivator who would dare to extend his hand to the Luanfeng Palace!" The Phoenix Palace Master waved her hand and asked the female cultivators who came with her to check the situation and handle the affairs. She came to the phantom clone, bowed and said.
Upon hearing what happened here, Palace Master Feng was extremely angry.
It is precisely because of the relationship between Yin Shilan and Li Shiming that the Luanfeng Palace has received great convenience. When the great monks of other forces still need to wait in line to make elixirs, the alchemy commissions of the Luanfeng Palace are always given priority.
In addition, Master Feng Palace pays more attention to Li Shiming's potential. Li Shiming is now a real top-level cultivator, and the possibility of him being promoted to a powerful person is very high.
Maintaining a friendship with a future great man and only investing a little bit now is definitely the best deal.
What happened today was not only a provocation to Luanfeng Palace, but also a destruction of the relationship between Luanfeng Palace and Li Shiming.
"It's me who has implicated the Luanfeng Palace. This is a trap for me and Lan'er!" The phantom clone shook his head and said, he thought for a moment and then said, "I need the help of the Luanfeng Palace. I'm sure the Luanfeng Palace will be able to find out the identity of the last peak ice cultivator!"
"Of course. There is no need for Brother Li to mention it. This is also what the Luanfeng Palace should do!" The Master of the Phoenix Palace waved his hand and said.
As they were talking, a female cultivator who was investigating the scene nearby came over and bowed to Palace Master Feng, but seeing the phantom clone was there, she did not say anything.
"Have you discovered anything? There is no need to avoid talking to Fellow Daoist Li, just say it directly!" Palace Master Feng ordered in a deep voice.
“Palace Master, the identities of the six great monks who were killed at the scene have been confirmed. One of them is Great Monk Yan Rong from Guiyuan Sect. He used the Disguise Pill to transform himself into Great Monk Mu Zhang, a free cultivator. We speculate that he is from the Intelligence Department of Guiyuan Sect.
The other five great monks are all from the Bi Tao Sect!" The female monk bowed and announced the test results.
Li Shiming was not surprised that the great monk Mu Zhang, whose real name was Yan Rong, was a monk from Guiyuan Sect. He just didn't expect that the other five great monks were from Bitao Sect.
The Bi Tao Sect is also a superpower, but it is not based in a certain continent. Instead, it occupies the Bi Tao Islands and establishes a superpower there.
"Guiyuan Sect and Bitao Sect, Guiyuan Sect actually joined forces with Bitao Sect to deal with Luanfeng Palace!" said the Master of Feng Palace, with a cold look in his eyes.
Guiyuan Sect is a super power in Zhongzhou Continent. Its alliance with Bitao Sect to deal with Luanfeng Palace is a typical example of colluding with external super power to deal with super power in the same continent.
Although there are some conflicts among the various superpowers in Zhongzhou, overall there is more cooperation.
These super powers together occupy the Zhongzhou Continent, which has the richest resources and the best environment in the world of immortal cultivation. They need to face tremendous pressure from other super powers. In order to better protect themselves, they will naturally choose to cooperate with the outside world.
Even if there are some conflicts among the superpowers within Zhongzhou Continent, they will not cooperate with external forces to deal with the internal superpowers. This is an unspoken rule that all the superpowers in Zhongzhou Continent abide by.
Especially when Palace Master Feng saw the female cultivator named Yu who was still crying, she could no longer contain her anger.
"Fellow Daoist Li, the latest information on this investigation will be sent to you as soon as possible. I think we should send Yin Shilan back to Luanfeng Palace first!" The Phoenix Palace Master thought of the phantom clone beside her, and she suggested.
Taking advantage of Yin Shilan's return to the sect, the female cultivator surnamed Yu was also allowed to go back with her. Staying here crying would really affect the image of Luanfeng Palace.
"Palace Master Feng, that's exactly what I meant!" The phantom clone did not insist on staying. There was no point in staying, so he bowed and said.
Under the order of the Phoenix Palace Master, all the female practitioners from the Luanfeng Palace who participated in the gathering followed Yin Shilan back to the Luanfeng Palace.
After the phantom clone took Yin Shilan and many female cultivators away, the coldness in Palace Master Feng was completely released.
"Pass my order to investigate the whereabouts of all the top ice-type monks, and at the same time stop all cooperation with Guiyuan Sect and Bitao Sect!" She gave the order in a deep voice.
In the next few days, the phantom clone was still waiting for the results of the Luanfeng Palace's investigation.
In fact, he could use some connections to ask other superpowers to help with the investigation, and all he would have to pay would be some favors.
I believe that any super power in the world of immortal cultivation will not refuse a favor from Li Shiming.
But after all, the incident happened outside the Luanfeng Palace. If he really wanted to do this, it would mean that he did not trust the Luanfeng Palace.
A copy of the intelligence from Luanfeng Palace was sent to Li Shiming every day, with some details of the investigation.
He didn't expect that the reaction of Luanfeng Palace would be so intense. Luanfeng Palace severed all cooperation with Guiyuan Sect. This was the severance of the relationship between the two super powers, and the impact it brought was enormous.
Three days later, Li Shiming received a piece of information that Luanfeng Palace had investigated and found out the identity of the great monk at the peak of the ice element at Wangyue Peak. He was the great monk Yi Xiao from Guiyuan Sect.
Master Yi Xiao is a newly promoted top master. Due to the death of Master Lin, he has become the most powerful master in Guiyuan Sect and his status has been greatly improved.
Great Monk Yi Xiao was promoted only a few decades ago, when the physical body of Great Monk Lin of Guiyuan Sect was beheaded. Guiyuan Sect invested a lot of resources in Great Monk Yi Xiao and forcibly promoted him to the peak great monk realm.
Precisely because it was a forced improvement, Master Yi Xiao's realm was not stable. Without a large amount of resources, the possibility of making further progress was extremely low.
It is probably for this reason that Master Yi Xiao chose to start with Li Shiming, the alchemy master with an extremely wealthy fortune.
The reason why the five great monks of the Bi Tao Sect would get involved in this matter is that the Bi Tao Sect and the Gui Yuan Sect have always had a relatively in-depth cooperative relationship. This time they were invited by the great monk Yi Xiao, which of course involved a very high reward that the great monk Yi Xiao had to pay.
Li Shiming saw the information in his hands. Since Luanfeng Palace had taken action, he couldn't remain silent.
Then a message came from the Wanshou Sect, announcing that any alchemy commissions from the Guiyuan Sect and the Bitao Sect would be stopped. If any great cultivator took on an alchemy commission on behalf of the great cultivators from the Guiyuan Sect and the Bitao Sect, the great cultivator's qualification for the commission would be revoked immediately.
Once this news got out, it caused even more sensation than the news that Luanfeng Palace had interrupted its cooperation with the two super powers.
At the same time, the impact on Guiyuan Sect and Bitao Sect is even greater. After all, the cooperation between Guiyuan Sect and Luanfeng Palace is just like that, and Luanfeng Palace and Bitao Sect do not cooperate, which has almost no impact on Bitao Sect.
But since Li Shiming no longer makes elixirs for these two super powers, the impact is completely different.
At present, all the great monks in the entire world of immortal cultivation have benefited from Li Shiming. They use the great monks' high-level elixirs to practice, which enables them to achieve better results in their practice.
When the great monks of other super powers have such conditions, but the great monks of Guiyuan Sect and Bitao Sect do not have such conditions, the impact will not be too great in the short term.
But if this continues for a hundred or two hundred years, the great monks of Guiyuan Sect and Bitao Sect will obviously lag behind the great monks of other super powers in overall strength.
So on the second day after the Wanshou Sect announced the news, the Guiyuan Sect sent a great monk to meet with Li Shiming's phantom clone.
Li Shiming didn't want to meet him at first, but considering that Guiyuan Sect was a super power in Zhongzhou Continent, he decided to meet him and hear what Guiyuan Sect had to say.
It was in the first-floor hall of Fengqi Palace that Li Shiming used to meet with the monks of Guiyuan Sect.
A young-looking monk walked into the hall. Not only did he look young, but his vitality also showed that he was no more than four hundred years old.
This is probably the youngest great monk Li Shiming has ever seen, except for himself and his clone Li Yuanba.
Although the other party's realm is only close to the middle-stage level of a great monk, but considering the difficulty of achieving the realm of a great monk, to be able to cultivate to this realm in four hundred years is not just a genius.
Li Shiming and Li Yuanba cannot be compared. The cultivation of Li Shiming and Li Yuanba used almost the best resources in the world of immortal cultivation, and they used the resources provided according to the highest standards for consumption.
Li Shiming can proudly say that in the world of immortal cultivation, apart from him, no other cultivator can do this.
No matter how profound the other party's background is, the main thing is that the level of the alchemy masters in the world of immortal cultivation is just there. Except for him, no other alchemy master dares to guarantee that the quality of his own alchemy is at least high quality.
In fact, the elixirs used by Li Shiming and Li Yuanba are all of top quality among high-level elixirs, and there are even some top-level elixirs.
Judging from the level of other alchemy masters in the world of immortal cultivation, in order to make a cultivator reach the level of a mid-level great cultivator within four hundred years, the great cultivator in front of him must have never lacked elixirs for cultivation like him, and also had some adventures.
"Guiyuan Sect's Jiang Hao greets Fellow Daoist Li!" When the great monk Jiang Hao saw Li Shiming's phantom clone, he did not treat the other party with any disrespect just because he was a phantom clone. He took the initiative to step forward, bowed, and introduced himself.
"It's Brother Jiang, nice to meet you!" The phantom clone returned the greeting.
Then he waved his hand to signal Master Jiang Hao to take a seat, and the female practitioners from Luanfeng Palace served him tea and fruits.
Li Shiming thought of the information about Guiyuan Sect sent by Luanfeng Palace, which included the information of the great monk Jiang Hao.
The surname Jiang of the great monk Jiang Hao is not simple at all. He is the direct descendant of the great Jiang Song of Guiyuan Sect and has a very high status in Guiyuan Sect.
Since Great Monk Jiang Hao came to meet Li Shiming, it seems that Guiyuan Sect is very sincere.
"Fellow Daoist Li, regarding the incident in which the two great monks Yi Xiao and Yan Rong attacked Fairy Yin, Guiyuan Sect has investigated and found that this incident did happen. However, the actions of Yi Xiao and Yan Rong have absolutely nothing to do with Guiyuan Sect. Fellow Daoist Li, please believe in the integrity of Guiyuan Sect!" Great Monk Jiang Hao went straight to the point.
"Then how does Guiyuan Sect plan to deal with this matter?" Li Shiming knew that the behavior of Great Monk Yi Xiao was not a decision made by a super power. In fact, offending Li Shiming would have much more serious consequences than obtaining a batch of great monk resources from him.
"Originally, I was planning to send Yi Xiao to you, but Yi Xiao did not return to Yuanzong, and Guiyuanzong is also searching for Yi Xiao. This time I came here because I don't want Yi Xiao's personal behavior to affect our relationship!" Master Jiang Hao said here, took out a jade box and pushed it in front of Li Shiming.
He went on to say: "This is Guiyuan Sect's compensation to Fairy Yin. In addition, once Yi Xiao is captured, Guiyuan Sect will immediately escort him to Fellow Daoist Li, who will personally deal with him!"
Li Shiming was really a little surprised. He did not expect Guiyuan Sect to handle it in this way. Guiyuan Sect's attitude was extremely humble.
"I feel the sincerity of Guiyuan Sect, but I also need to consider the attitude of Luanfeng Palace. I believe that Fellow Daoist Jiang can understand this point!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
